The library staff also hopes to move the Writing Program and Quantitative Reasoning (QR) program into the library as part of the Campus Renewal project. A committee composed of Library and Technology Services (LTS) members, facilities managers and faculty from the Writing and QR programs began initial surveys for the project last fall by examining the use of space in current or proposed libraries at other universities. About 20 students offered feedback on the use of space in the library in three small group meetings with architect Monica Ponce de Leon. Student feedback centered around several issues: confusion over the stairs and layout, uncertainty over acceptable noise levels, desire for a café or a more social space, a need for more power outlets and use of individual versus group space. One of these concerns focused on problems with the library’s architecture. Students mentioned that it made them claustrophobic and was difficult to navigate, especially with its confusing set of stairs. Zoe Swarzenski ’17 feels that the library has a problem with the layout that makes it difficult to locate objects that she is searching for. BIANCA PICHAMUTHU ’16, PHOTOGRAPHY EDITOR “I wish it was more transparent, the layout and where things are.

Nationally, college graduates this year on average face $30,000 dollars in debt, the highest student loan debt ever recorded. Meanwhile, the federal government this year will pay student loan collection companies $600 million. The U.S. Department of Education announced changes to its rules last week to ensure that loan servicers provide more affordable payment plans. This change is an attempt to address the national concern that taking out multiple loans does not help a student’s financial situation but actually drives him or her deeper into debt. At Wellesley, according to the National Center for Educational Statistics, 68 percent of the student population received financial aid in the 2012-13 academic year. Fifty-nine percent of the financial aid packages consisted of grants averaging $38,166 while 31 percent of aid recipients took out loans averaging $4,339. Unless a student is able to get her loans eliminated ALICE LIANG ’16, CO-EDITOR-IN-CHIEF by fulfilling certain financial criteria, according to the Student Financial Services investments, repayment and donations. “We are here to support the college, and loans still have an impact on Wellesley (SFS) website, there is the standard “low For the 2014-2015 academic year, I think the college does a great job in student life. loan package” with a four-year debt of the Student Aid Society has committed supporting the students,” Schedlbauer said. “My friend actually had to take a year off $15,200. $335,000 for grants and $600,000 for In addition to the funds from the Student [due to costs],” Mollie Krawitz ’17 said.

  • The Koch's Criminal Justice Hypocrisy in New Hampshire
    CCWWTT::^^RRWW11aa^^ccWWTTaabb´´ 666AAA000===888CCC444 BBBCCC000CCC444 ???AAA>>>999444222CCC 77^^ffccWWTTAAPPSSXXRRPP[[00VVTT]]SSPP^^UU >dc^UBcPcT1XV>X[1X[[X^]PXaTb 77PPbb77ddaacc==TTff77PP\\__bbWWXXaaTT 1 Charles and David Koch pour hundreds of millions of dollars into our political system to advance their self-enriching agenda and elect their puppet candidates. At the state and national level, the Kochs use their unlimited resources to influence policy to suit their political and personal needs while hurting middle class and working families. The policies they favor include cutting taxes for corporations and the wealthy; reducing and eliminating regulations to protect workers, consumers, and the environment; privatizing and cutting both Social Security and Medicare; and cutting other programs, including Pell Grants for college. For decades, the Kochs and their network of dark money political front groups have been pushing the Koch agenda in New Hampshire — perhaps more than any other state in the country — which has benefitted billionaires like the Kochs at the expense of Granite Staters. In 2016, New Hampshire will continue to be on center stage in American politics with the First In The Nation primary, a top- tier Senate race, marquee Congressional contests, an open governor’s mansion, and a number of hot button issues in the limelight. At the same time, the Koch network has promised to spend nearly $900 million to buy elections for candidates who will do their bidding for them. The Kochs themselves admit they “expect something in return” for the millions they spend propping up their candidates, but for candidates, backing from the Kochs comes with a high price tag.

  • The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network
    PLATFORMS AND OUTSIDERS IN PARTY NETWORKS: THE EVOLUTION OF THE DIGITAL POLITICAL ADVERTISING NETWORK Bridget Barrett A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts at the Hussman School of Journalism and Media. Chapel Hill 2020 Approved by: Daniel Kreiss Adam Saffer Adam Sheingate © 2020 Bridget Barrett ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Bridget Barrett: Platforms and Outsiders in Party Networks: The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network (Under the direction of Daniel Kreiss) Scholars seldom examine the companies that campaigns hire to run digital advertising. This thesis presents the first network analysis of relationships between federal political committees (n = 2,077) and the companies they hired for electoral digital political advertising services (n = 1,034) across 13 years (2003–2016) and three election cycles (2008, 2012, and 2016). The network expanded from 333 nodes in 2008 to 2,202 nodes in 2016. In 2012 and 2016, Facebook and Google had the highest normalized betweenness centrality (.34 and .27 in 2012 and .55 and .24 in 2016 respectively). Given their positions in the network, Facebook and Google should be considered consequential members of party networks. Of advertising agencies hired in the 2016 electoral cycle, 23% had no declared political specialization and were hired disproportionately by non-incumbents. The thesis argues their motivations may not be as well-aligned with party goals as those of established political professionals. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES AND FIGURES ....................................................................................................................

  • Introduction Since the 1950S, New Hampshire Has Gained a Level Of
    Introduction Since the 1950s, New Hampshire has gained a level of political notoriety and media attention greatly disproportionate to the size of its population and to the modest four votes it holds in the Electoral College. On paper, at least, these facts, filtered through a first-past-the-post electoral system, should ensure the ‘Granite State’ receives little serious attention from the major parties in presidential elections, except in extremely close races where voter intentions are fluid and nominees must scramble for every vote. The state is also comparatively low yield in terms of convention delegates and, until recently, had a longstanding reputation for rock-ribbed Republicanism, with the GOP dominating executive offices, the state legislature and national congressional delegations. Combined, these factors make it all the more surprising that the voting intentions and political culture of a small, conservative New England state have been national talking points for years. In the early twenty-first century, New Hampshire continues to fascinate reporters and political scientists, not only for its controversial ‘first-in-the-nation’ primary but also for an apparent marked change in its partisan make-up, which has converted it into a key ‘swing state’ in presidential elections. New Hampshire has occupied a unique position in electoral politics since 1952. Changes to the rules governing presidential nomination contests, combined with the rapid growth of media coverage of those contests, propelled it into the political limelight. In the pre-reform nomination system, where closed caucuses and behind-the-scenes bargaining determined convention outcomes, New Hampshire’s early position in the primary calendar meant little, other than allowing presidential hopefuls such as Franklin Roosevelt to test public opinion and state party activists without serious long-term risk.
