TWO TURNTABLES and a MICROPHONE by Andy Baum, C'72
TWO TURNTABLES AND A MICROPHONE By Andy Baum, C’72 Growing up, my only career ambitions were to write for a newspaper and to be on the radio. When I was admitted to Penn I saw the chance to achieve both. So during freshman year I heeled both the Daily Pennsylvanian and WXPN. The DP was an august institution. A bunch of unpaid students somehow produced a well- written, full-sized print newspaper every weekday without benefit of computers. Everyone on campus read it. A leadership position at the paper was a serious credential, and helped launch many journalistic careers. The highlight of my heeling was spending election night in 1968 standing by the UPI teletype, ripping off and then delivering to the correct desk the election return reports. It felt important. WXPN wasn’t important. It was lodged in a few run-down rooms on the top floor of Houston Hall. Its AM station broadcast through electrical wires in the dorms. It had a Top 40 format. Since it was easy for students to hear the real thing on WFIL or WIBG, the audience consisted mostly of friends of the student DJs and a few other souls looking for an easy way to win a Campus Joe Pagano pizza by being the “third caller.” (Often, the winner was the only caller.) The FM side was more serious business, but it didn’t have much impact on campus life, and was barely known off-campus except among alumni who tuned in to hear Penn football games. I made the cut at both. -

DPAA 2018: Year in Review What We Did • Organized the 33Rd Annual Steven A
Daily Pennsylvanian Alumni Association 2018 Annual Report We’re pleased to provide your copy of the DP Alumni Association Annual Report. Look inside to read columns from DPAA President Martin Siegel, outgoing DP President David Akst, DP General Manager Eric Jacobs, and DP Board of Directors Lead Alumni Director Chuck Cohen about the state of the DP and DPAA. We also recognize the many DP alumni who contributed to the DPAA during our 2017-18 membership year. Why do we create and mail a printed report? Each year, some of you have asked why we aren’t being greener/more frugal by simply posting it online. While we do post alumni news throughout the year on our DPAA Facebook page, and send periodic emails, statistics show that fewer than half our alumni read our email newsletters and subscribe to our Facebook page. So this once-a-year mailing attempts to reach the widest audience of DP alumni to give everyone a snapshot of DP and DPAA activities during the past year. We hope you find this report informative, and as always, we welcome your input on how we can improve it in future years. The DPAA Board of Directors December, 2018 DPAA 2018: Year in Review What we did • Organized the 33rd annual Steven A. Marquez Journalism Conference in September, featuring 18 DP alumni speakers • Presented the 5th annual DP Journalism Bootcamp in January, featuring 8 DP alumni speakers • Hosted office open house receptions for alumni on Homecoming and Alumni Day, and smaller regional get-togethers in New York and San Francisco • Provided alumni critiques of -
Agnieszka Lions for Lambs TRACK CHANGES and COMMENTS April 17
AFGHANISTAN AGNIESZKA SOLTYSIK MONNET Lions for Lambs (2007): Ambivalent Memorialization and Melodrama Lions for Lambs (2007) is a film about the importance of historical memory. Through three interwoven stories told in real time (90 minutes), the film suggests that the wars in the Middle East (the film’s combat scene takes place in Afghanistan) are repeating many of the mistakes of the Vietnam War. Memory and memorialization are thus central to the film’s concerns, through a dual agenda of reminding viewers of the lessons of the Vietnam era as well as commemorating the soldiers who are being once more exposed to danger for murky political goals. Just as the word “memorialize” has two meanings which sometimes pull in opposite directions (to preserve the memory of and to commemorate, which can be understood in either a neutral or a more celebratory sense), so do the film’s objectives end up pulling in opposite directions. On the one hand, the film wishes to offer a critical perspective on the war in Afghanistan, arguing that the military approach alone will never accomplish its stated objectives and can only lead to the deaths of more young soldiers such as the protagonists of 1 the movie, Ernest (Michael Pena) and Arian (Derek Luke), two college students, a Mexican American and an African American. On the other hand, the film wants to honor the service and sacrifice of these soldiers, in keeping with the current climate of reverence to military personnel,1 and therefore presents their deaths in a highly melodramatic and quasi-religious aesthetic frame which sits uneasily with the critical and questioning thrust of the film. -
