  • A Gay/Straight Comparison of Gay Voices
    A GAY/STRAIGHT COMPARISON OF GAY VOICES A RESEARCH PAPER SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE MASTER OF ARTS BY SHANE LANNING DR. CAROLYN MACKAY - ADVISOR BALL STATE UNIVERSITY MUNCIE, INDIANA MAY 2015 Lanning-1 Introduction: This study compares 4 gay male comedians and 4 straight male comedians’ performances of “gay speech”. The researcher observed comedians who were performing gay characters for the following three variables: the lisp ([s̪ ] instead of [s]), a raised pitch, and formal [–iŋ] vs. informal [–In] endings. It was hypothesized that both straight comedians and gay comedians would manipulate their [s] production to the dental [s̪ ] when performing a gay character; moreover, the comedians would also raise their pitch during their performance. The [–iŋ] vs. [–In] sounds, because their production below the level of consciousness, would not vary in the homosexual or heterosexual comedians. The purpose of this comparison was to determine how salient the features were in each group in order to identify stereotypical features associated with gay speech. In other words, if all of the comedians were using a particular feature, one could postulate that this feature has a stronger association with perceived gay speakers. Conversely, if the comedians were not using a particular feature, one could postulate that this feature has a weaker association or is not associated at all with perceived gay speakers. In recent studies, participants were asked to rate speakers on a scale of homosexual to heterosexual and a scale of feminine to masculine. In these studies, the data showed that features like the lisp ([s̪ ] instead of [s]), received higher gay ratings; participants rated speakers’ sexuality as gay more often when they exhibited this feature (Mack & Munson, 2012).

    884653.indd4653.indd 1 3-1177-0088 4 4:03:30:03:30 P PMM Letter from the Chairs Dear Friends, Welcome to Imagining a More Civil Society: The Summit on the University and the Jewish Community. One year ago a steering committee convened at Hillel’s Kraft Center for Jewish Student Life at Columbia University to begin planning this unique event. We set out not just to catalogue the many positive trends in civil discourse and civic engagement on campus, but to imagine what could be. With the generous support of the Einhorn Family Charitable Trust, this remarkable group of people – leaders of the academy and the Jewish community – developed a program that enables participants to refl ect on who we are and the ideas of others, to discuss and learn from others in an effort to share and integrate our truths, and to act to create greater opportunities for others. As we imagine a more civil society, we will focus deeply on discourse itself and also on activi- ties that foster safe dialogue and productive contributions to society. We will delve into the challenges of creating community, often raising questions without defi nitive solutions. We will demonstrate what we hope to lead on campus: respectful, authentic conversations in which we hold multiple truths simultaneously, listening carefully while articulating our own thoughts and opening ourselves to letting go and learning anew. We will bring back to campus fresh ideas on discourse and civic engagement. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Hillel International Board of Governors Chairman Edgar M.

  • Summer NABC Scheduling a Summary of the Board's Action
    October, 2016 Washington Report for District 12 Unit Board Members From: Dennis Carman, District 12 Director The cooler weather that has arrived this fall has not quite blunted my memory of the weather at the Summer NABC in Washington, D.C. It was hot, hot, hot. The hotel, the Marriott Wardman Park, and the availability of a good variety of nearby, affordable restaurants made this a better than average national’s site. Susan and I did make trips to the National Mall, to the World War II Memorial (which did not exist during our last trip to Washington, D.C.), and to a Nationals vs. Dodgers baseball game. There were massive crowds on the Mall the Sunday we were there, there were traffic jams, and there was the heat. Everything done out of doors was very uncomfortable. Board of Director and Committee Actions in Washington, D.C. Expulsions Clearly, the expulsions of Lotan Fisher, Ron Schwartz, Fulio Fantoni, and Claudio Nunes from the ACBL by the Ethical Oversite Committee as the talk of the tournament. They were found guilty of violating three sections of the ACBL’s Code of Disciplinary Regulations, CDR, Sections 3.1, 3.2, and 3.20. They were convicted of violations of the Laws of Duplicate Contract Bridge (Law 73132), violation of ACBL regulations and cheating and similar ethical violations. Forfeiture of 100% of their masterpoints, titles, ranks, and membership privileges were part of this penalty. Pursuant to CDR 4.18c the partners and teammates of all four are subject to mandatory forfeiture of all masterpoints, titles, and status ranks earned during the four years preceding the findings of guilt.
