  • President's Position Statement for 2009
    President’s Position Statement for 2009 To All Faculty, Staff and Students at Nanzan University Last year, in the Nanzan University Grand Design, Nanzan University shared its vision as the sole Catholic university in the Chubu region. That vision is “to contribute to the creation of values that arise from people living and working together while respecting human dignity, building on the recognition of diversity and the understanding that various differences exist among people in terms of ethnicity, ability, religion, culture, and gender.” In last year’s President’s Position Statement, I stated that in order for the mid- to long-term goals of the Grand Design to be achieved, “unceasing self-reform” and “internal enrichment to bring about the ‘Nanzan Difference’” will be needed. I believe that “internal enrichment” means that every person constituting the University needs to enrich their individual strengths. I would like you to continue working toward making that a reality this year. The Nanzan University Grand Design is not a fairy tale, but is a realizable future image of Nanzan that we have the serious responsibility to bring about. Every constituent member of this university needs to embody that fact in their daily activities. The policies outlined in this year’s Position Statement were determined based on the recognition that further enrichment in Research, Education, and Social Contribution is necessary for us to be able to achieve the Grand Design mid- to long-term goals. I. Basic Position 1. Advancement of Education that Differentiates Nanzan as a Catholic University The raison d’être of Nanzan University is to “disseminate broad knowledge and to conduct and instruct specialized research based on a Christian world view and thereby develop individuals who respect and advance human dignity.

At the conclusion of the meeting, a joint communiqué (the communiqué) on key topics discussed at the meeting was issued. With respect to the ongoing G20/OECD2 project on addressing the tax challenges arising from the digitalization of the economy (the BEPS 2.0 project), the Finance Ministers endorsed the key components of the two pillars on reallocation of profits and a global minimum tax as set out in the Statement released by the OECD/G20 Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) on 1 July 2021. They also called on the Inclusive Framework to swiftly address the remaining issues, finalize the design elements within the agreed framework and provide an implementation plan for the two pillars by the October G20 Finance Ministers meeting. In addition, they invited the Inclusive Framework member jurisdictions that have not yet joined the agreement to do so.

  • Volume 25, Number 1, Fall 2012
    Fall 2012 Volume 25, Issue 1 Biannual Newsletter Canadian Association for the History of Nursing Association canadienne pour l’histoire du nursing President’s Message – Dr. Beverley Hicks The CAHN conference and meeting in Medicine Hat is now a happy recollection and I am sure the 25th anniversary conference is recalled with good memories. This year’s Hannah lecturer, Carol Helmstadter, spoke on “Military Nursing in Four Different Contexts”. Carol’s meticulous research was evident as she explored different nursing responses to the Crimean war. It was a privilege that one of our long standing members and supporters gave this 25th Hannah Lecture. All the papers were excellent but one that stands out for me was presented by Jayne Elliott. It was the work of Jayne and Cynthia Toman who brought some order, continuity and clarity to our own history. This will help us to see our progress and will also encourage us as we move forward. For a small group we have done well to maintain a national presence. Medicine Hat College and the local arrangements chair Florence Melchior did a superb job of arranging the conference, accommodation, and meals and Saturday evening entertainment. This was one of the smallest venues in which the conference has been held but all agreed it was excellent. The next conference will be in Victoria in conjunction with the Canadian Society for the History of Medicine. The new slate of officers is published in this issue of the newsletter, including a number of students, and this is an excellent way to get students involved.

    For Immediate Release Contact: [email protected] TEA & JUSTICE — AWARD-WINNING FILM ON NYPD ASIAN WOMEN COPS TO SCREEN AT LA FEMME FILM FESTIVAL, BEVERLY HILLS, OCT. 17 Beverly Hills, CA, October 13, 2008 — TEA & JUSTICE , a documentary about three petite immigrant Asian women defying stereotypes in the New York Police Department (NYPD) will screen at La Femme Film Festival on Friday, October 17, 2008, 10:00 am at the Fine Arts Theatre, 8556 Wilshire Boulevard, Beverly Hills, CA. Director/Producer Ermena Vinluan will be present. According to Leslie Lapage, Founder & Executive Director of La Femme , “The Festival screens films for a world audience. Last year, over 10,000 attended, celebrating films made by women – for everyone.” TEA & JUSTICE is about three petite Asian immigrant women who help change the face of the NYPD – and its soul. VINLUAN made the film because she was intrigued by the image of Asian women in such a non-traditional career. The filmmaker also explores her activist ideas and mixed feelings about cops, while honoring the challenges the women embraced and reforms they accomplished. Hollywood Reporter called the film “thoughtful and provocative.” TEA & JUSTICE was also described as “…a heartfelt documentary…delightful” ( Rocky Chin, Esq., NY State Civil Rights Commission); and “…bold, sensitive, passionate, analytical and iconoclastic,” (Prof. Estella Habal, Asian Studies at San Jose State University) . ABOUT THE FILM AGNES CHAN, a 20-year-old college student and Chinatown garment factory worker became NYPD's first Asian female officer in 1980. Chan was committed to creating a bridge between the police and the poorly- served Asian community.
