    N E W S L E T T E R The Doreen B. Townsend Center for the Humanities October 2001 Grounding the Humanities Environment-related Activities at the Townsend Center “Rediscover Earth Now!” During the 1970s and 1980s, burgeoning popular interest in the environment and environmental issues helped fuel the creation of a plethora of new courses and new programs in the natural and the social sciences, as well as in professional schools including Medicine and Law. And yet, while individual humanists joined this movement and have continued to produce valuable work related to the environment (on the Berkeley campus, one thinks of faculty as varied and accomplished as Robert Hass, Kerwin Klein, and Hertha Sweet Wong), the humanities as a whole could and should play a more central role in reexaminations of what we mean by “nature” and how these definitions affect and are affected by crucial environmental initiatives and policies. Because of my own work in the Amazon, the more active presence of the humanities in larger debates about environmental issues is a matter of personal concern. But the role of the humanities in these debates is a much broader intellectual and logistical question, one in which the Townsend Center, at both the institutional and programmatic levels, has begun to play an important part. While study of the environment is only one of the Center’s multiple interests, we have recently taken several important steps to increase our participation in promoting multi-disciplinary approaches that take up the connections between nature and culture. On the Berkeley campus, the Townsend Center has initiated its first formal collaboration with the College of Natural Resources by appointing to our Advisory Board Nancy Peluso, a faculty member in the Department of Environmental Science, Policy, and Management.

One of a pair whose second set of chicks fledged last spring, the noble falcon and its family stole the hearts of the campus community and people around the world on social media. With renewed confidence we now look to the future. Our comprehensive strategic plan guides us toward fulfilling three aspirational pillars: empowering our students and faculty to change the world; discovering innovative solutions to society’s grand challenges; and embracing the California spirit that is fueled by inclusion, entrepreneurial activity, and diversity of every sort. The strategic plan is already driving changes in the undergraduate experience that will improve the support and academic counseling we provide and put discovery and creative expression at the very center of our students’ academic lives.

Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents is published by the Office of the U(liversity of Wisconsin System Women's Studies Librarian on a quarterly basis with the intent of increasing public awareness of feminist periodicals. It is our hope that Feminist Periodicals will serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers' familiarity with a wide spectrum offeminist periodicals; and to provide the requisite bibliographic information should a reader wish to subscribe to ajournal or to obtain a particular article at her library or through interlibrary loan. (Users will need to be aware of the limitations of the new copyright law with regard to photocopying of copyrighted materials.) Table ofcontents pages from currentissues ofmajor feministjournals are reproduced in each issue of Feminist Periodicals, preceded by a comprehensive annotated listing of all journals we have selected. As publication schedules vary enormously, not every periodical will have table of contents pages reproduced in each issue of FP. The annotated listing provides the following information on each journal: 1. Year of first pUblication. 2. Frequency of publication. 3. U.S. subscription price(s). 4. Subscription address. 5. Current editor. 6. Editorial address (if different from SUbscription address).

  • Department of History
    Department of History SUMMER 2021 Newsletter 2 LETTER FROM THE CHAIR | JOHN OTT Warm congratulations to the Class of 2021! I can think of no better way to begin this column than by acknowledging the perseverance and hard work of our unsinkable graduates. At its virtual commencement celebration in early June, the department celebrated the achievements of eleven Master’s students and sixty-five undergraduates who earned their degrees during the past academic year. No class in living memory has faced similar challenges, and few could have anticipated, back in March 2020, that they would spend the next fifteen months taking classes remotely. We applaud their resilience, and wish them well — the world needs them! Despite the challenges of the remote environment and the absence of our students and colleagues on campus, the past year was in many ways a great success. The newsletter on your screen is packed with pages of stories about student and alumni experiences, faculty achievements, and recaps of department events. I’d like to highlight a few of our initiatives here. In April, Portland State launched its annual Day of Giving Campaign, and the History Department was an avid participant. Given the many financial challenges our students faced in the past year, we sought to support the formation of a dedicated Student Hardship Fund, to which any enrolled History major or Master’s student in need John Ott channeling his inner Tim Garrison of financial assistance, from money for books to help with tuition and rent, could apply. We set a goal of $5,000 — and utterly smashed it! Our amazing donors and community supporters rallied to help us raise over $14,500, which qualified us for two matching grants totaling $3,000.
