Jim Lemcke, director of the UM Office of Public Safety, said the student was locked out of his dorm room at about 10 a.m. and fell when he attempted to cross the narrow ledge outside the study lounge window to re-enter through his dorm window. The student, who was not identified, hit the flat roof hanging over the Miller Hall entrance on Arthur Avenue three stories below. The student was taken to St. Patrick Hospital.

And from that on, they played around with different recipes, and we basically started off making smoked sausage, andouille [sausage], hogshead cheese, boudin—the basic sausages that people would want in New Orleans. And from then on out we introduced ourselves to the chefs in New Orleans, and they always came up with their ideas of what they would want, and we would work together and make different products.

    Funk the Clock: Transgressing Time While Young, Prescient and Black A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Rahsaan Mahadeo IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Advisers: David Pellow and Joyce Bell August 2019 © 2019 Rahsaan Mahadeo Acknowledgements Pursuing a PhD has at times felt like the most selfish endeavor I have ever undertaken. For I knew that every book I read and every paper I wrote was largely for personal gain. Not coming from academic lineage or economic privilege, I could not escape the profound sense of guilt of leaving so many behind in the everyday struggle to live, labor and learn in a school that is less of a land-grant institution and more of a land-grab institution; an educational system that is more private than public; a corporation that presents students with more educational opportunists than educational opportunities; a sea of scholarship that looks more like colonizer ships; and a tower that is as anti ebony as it is ivory. Most know it as the “U of M,” when it is really the U of empire. Here, I would like to take the opportunity to counter the university’s individualistic and neoliberal logic to thank several people who have helped me cope with the challenges of living, learning and laboring in a space designed without me (and many others) in mind. Thank you to my advisers David Pellow and Joyce Bell for supporting me along my graduate school journey. Though illegible to the university, I recognize and appreciate the inordinate amount of labor you perform inside and outside the classroom.

Merkle August 2016 © 2016 Katlyn M. Merkle. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled ‘Here We Are’: Exploring the Lived Experiences of Pregnant Graduate Students within Neoliberal Universities by KATLYN M. MERKLE has been approved for the Department of Geography and the College of Arts and Sciences by Risa Whitson Associate Professor of Geography Robert Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT MERKLE, KATLYN M., M.A., August 2016, Geography ‘Here We Are’: Exploring the Lived Experiences of Pregnant Graduate Students within Neoliberal Universities Director of Thesis: Risa Whitson This research aims to improve how feminist geographers theorize people’s embodied connections to spaces and places through analyzing what pregnancy is like while attending graduate school. This study explores the interconnectedness between how pregnancy is experienced and embodied by graduate students at neoliberal universities within the United States along with how pregnancy disrupts established bodily boundaries for graduate students at universities. This research on maternities unpacks how pregnancy, is embedded in a set of social conditions that can be manipulated based on the gender politics that are culturally produced and maintained within everyday geographies. By learning more about the lived experiences of pregnant graduate students, this research hopes to create or spur conversations that could lead to more supportive environments for pregnant students within neoliberal universities.

  • Your Chocolate Rain Are Belonging to Us?': Viral Video
    ‘All Your Chocolate Rain are Belonging to Us?’: Viral Video, YouTube and the Dynamics of Participatory Culture Jean Burgess Marketers and media producers for the past several years have been racing to capture the marketing potential of both online social networks and user-created content. ‘Viral marketing’, for example, is the attempt to exploit the network effects of word-of-mouth and internet communication to induce a massive number of users to pass on ‘marketing messages and brand information voluntarily’.1 The related term ‘viral video’ has emerged to describe the phenomenon in which video clips become highly popular through rapid, user-led distribution via the internet. How, or whether, the ‘bottom-up’ dynamics of viral video can be mobilised for instrumental purposes—from marketing to political advertising—remains an open question. But ‘viral video’ could be much more than a banal marketing buzzword—in fact, interrogating it a bit more closely in the specific context of YouTube can help us cut through the hype and better understand some of the more complex characteris- tics of participatory popular culture online. In popular usage, the term ‘viral’ (and the related internet ‘meme’) are of course very loosely applied biological metaphors, appropriated from various attempts to develop a science of cultural transmission based on evolutionary theory that have been unfolding for decades. The contested field of ‘memetics’ is the best-known, but by no means only, strand of this kind of 86 JEAN BURGESS : ALL YOUR CHOCOLATE RAIN thinking, which began with Richard Dawkins’ proposal in The Selfish Gene of the ‘meme’ as the corresponding cultural unit to the biological gene.2 Similar to the scientific usage in meaning if not analytical precision, in contemporary popular usage an internet ‘meme‘ is a faddish joke or practice (like a humorous way of captioning cat pictures) that becomes widely imitated.

  • Costs ANALYSIS at a Sausage MANUFACTURER X
    COSTS ANALYSIS AT A Tom de Koning SAUSAGE S1583751 University of Twente Supervisor UT 1: I. Seyran - Topan MANUFACTURER X Supervisor UT 2: T. de Bakker Supervisor X: August - 2017 Bachelor assignment for ‘Industral Engineering and Management BSc’ i Management Summary X is a meat wholesaler in Paramaribo, Suriname. The company has circa 55 employees and has three departments. A Slaughterhouse, the raw meat factory and the sausage factory. This research is about the costs of the products in the sausage factory. X wants to expand their sales to the Caribbean, because Suriname is in a recession and X needs to export their products to survive. The costs calculations at X are outdated because of the drop of the Surinam Dollar in mid-2016. Because of this drop, some ingredients of the sausages have increased a lot in purchase price, which X neglected in earlier cost calculations. In this research, the direct costs are the most important parts. Circa 70%, of the total costs are the raw materials, derived from the receipts. The considered costs include the losses of raw materials, the employee costs, the machine costs and the losses in production and inventory as well. Finally, the costs that are not assigned to products become the indirect overhead costs. The raw materials are derived from the receipts. The costs of these raw materials are derived from a list of raw materials with the most recent purchase prices. The most recent prices are derived from the purchase orders from the book keeping system of X. The lost materials are derived from the difference in the total used raw materials and the total used raw materials that were expected to be used.
