My name is Lisa Wu and I’m excited to be directing the committee with Rodrigo and to be part of this year’s MUNUR experience. I’m in the eighth semester law student in Universidad del Rosario, interested in International Law, Economic Law, and Human Rights. About my MUN experience, I’m a former URDiplomat, representing the university for two consecutive years in the Harvard National Model United Nations. I have had experience in dierent types of committees, never repeating the same one, and chaired in PUJMUN 2018 and COLMUN 2019. I considered myself as a person with a diverse background, raised and born in Bucaramanga but the daughter of Chinese immigrants. Currently, I’m part of the School Council of Universidad del Rosario and teacher assistant in Economic Law. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, reading history, and traveling. Both school shooting crisis and mental health and gender roles in the LGTB+ community topics are not uncommon to us; they may be dierent from each other, but they represent special important groups of study in the mental health sphere. It is necessary to recognize the repercussions of bad mental health care and that each group of society cannot be treated the same way, their needs and problems need dierent solutions. I expect MUNUR 2019 to be a great opportunity to learn and to improve as delegates and people. I strongly believe that what makes a good delegate are academic preparation, diplomacy, creativity, and most important of all, integrity. Best of luck, Lisa Wu [email protected] 4 HISTORY OF THE COMMITTEE AND DYNAMICS: Historical context APA rejected their recommendations, they created the American Psychological Society Supervision of scientic publications: e APA oversees the functioning of over 50 APA was founded by a small group of men in July 1892, after G.

DEDICATION This study is dedicated to Nicole Hadley (1983-1997), Jessica James (1979-1997), and Kayce Steger (1982-1997). All were victims of the 1997 Heath High School shooting. More than that, they were young, bright teenagers with lives yet to be lived. If there are lessons to be learned from this study, may they add wisdom to our collective understanding of how to protect the children we serve in our schools. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Bill Bond experienced every school administrator’s salient nightmare, a school shooting. The event, which lasted only eight minutes, left three dead and five injured. While it may only have been a brief moment in time, the effects have reached far beyond anything we could have predicted all those years ago.

  • What Bullying and Teasing Do to Everyone—Kids, Adults, and Communities
    02-Roberts (Parents).qxd 9/3/2007 11:32 AM Page 9 C HAPTER T WO What Bullying and Teasing Do to Everyone—Kids, Adults, and Communities “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” This children’s taunt was first listed in Folk Phrases of Four Counties (1894) by G. F. Northall and is first attested in the United States in Miss Lindsey (1936) by S. G. Gibbons. The Morris Dictionary of Word and Phrase Origins (Morris & Morris, 1977/1988) also notes that the first use of this phrase is found in Folk Phrases. According to the Random House Dictionary of Popular Proverbs and Sayings (Titelman, 1996), this proverb is found in vary- ing forms: “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but hard words cannot hurt me”; “Sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can never hurt me”; and “Sticks and stones will break my bones, but lies will never hurt me.” From Phrase Finder Discussion Forum (2000) n Bullying From Both Sides, I give a more detailed review of all of the defini- I tions and nuances of bullying. The reader will find it helpful to refer to Chapter 2 in that book (see pp. 13–20) to obtain a deeper understanding of the problem and its full context. For the sake of avoiding duplication, we do not repeat all of that information here. However, it is useful to review here some of the basic ground rules and definitions so you are better able to explain and sum- marize the problem to those parents whom we want working with us in our newly created partnership mode.

First and foremost, thank you to my Pacific research participants, who generously gave of their time and knowledge and without whom this research would not have been possible. I hope that I have done justice to your contributions and produced a work that might seed positive change in both academia and the media industry. Thank you to the members of my Pacific Advisory Group, who gave much-needed guidance and encouragement, and to the colleagues, friends and family who offered support, read early drafts and otherwise put up with my distraction. Thank you, also, to the countless people who work behind the scenes to improve outcomes for Pasifika. Without you, this kid from Porirua would likely never have undertaken postgraduate study. In that vein, I’d like also to acknowledge the University of Canterbury for awarding me a Pacific Students’ Thesis Scholarship, the NZ Federation of Graduate Women for a PhD Scholarship and the Tertiary Education Commission for granting me a Building Research Capacity in the Social Sciences (BRCSS) II Postgraduate Research Award. That material support was crucial for this research project.

Moral panics have arisen as a result of these frames, having been constructed to instigate fear and affect policy in ways that can have negative effects on both students in general and, in particular, minority students in urban schools.

  • From Columbine to Red Lake: Tragic Provocations for Advocacy
    2006 MAASA Presidential Address From Columbine to Red Lake: Tragic Provocations for Advocacy Cheryl Lester Serving for the past five years on the MAASA Board has given me an opportunity to develop relationships with colleagues in American studies through­ out the Midwest, learn more about the challenges and responsibilities of organi­ zational life, and reflect on the relationship between our organizational prac­ tices and material conditions within our region. Like all organizations, MAASA is rooted in particular institutions, structures, and relationships, while its future demands ongoing commitment, revitalization, and revision. If we wish to con­ tribute to the progress of American studies in our region, we must reflect on the same questions that confront the discipline nationally, namely, on the question of what constitutes our field, our goals, our perspectives, and our constituen­ cies. As a field, we are challenging our colonial, nationalist, and imperialist origins by reaching assiduously toward critical, transnational, comparative ap­ proaches to American studies and American hegemony.1 As public servants, we are working at a time when support for public institutions and the services they provide for ordinary people has been shamefully and systematically withdrawn in favor of increasing the profit margins of corporate interests operating on a global scale. In my remarks today, I want to propose a direction for the future of MAASA, so that we might become better informed about our region and better able to work collectively to formulate and respond to our problems and needs. At a 0026-3079/2006/4701 -133S5.00/0 American Studies, 47:1 (Spring 2006): 133-153 133 134 Cheryl Lester time when the particularity and scope of regional life is complicated and ob­ scured by the preeminence of corporate institutions and artifacts and by the expansive, quick, and diverse reach of electronic technologies, it remains im­ portant to engage with and respond to local circumstances, ongoing and emerg­ ing regional struggles, and the histories that inform them.

  • Narratives of Violence, Myths of Youth: American Youth Identity in Fictional Narratives of School Shootings
    Narratives of Violence, Myths of Youth: American Youth Identity in Fictional Narratives of School Shootings Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kathryn E. Linder, M.A. Graduate Program in Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee Linda Mizejewski, Advisor Valerie Kinloch, Co-Advisor Rebecca Wanzo Copyright by Kathryn E. Linder 2011 Abstract Throughout the 1990s in the United States, a series of suburban school shootings perpetrated by young, white males disrupted contemporary perceptions of American youth, often a population configured in terms of ideal whiteness. In conjunction with sensationalized media coverage of school shootings, various fictional portrayals of suburban youth violence also emerged throughout this period as what Henry Giroux has called “public pedagogy” that served to further influence national perceptions of youth. In this body of film, television and literary narratives, school violence is often related to other national concerns surrounding American youth identity such as deviant sexuality and teen pregnancy. While a good deal of scholarly attention has focused on popular representations of education and youth generally, little has been written about these specific fictionalizations of school shootings and what they signify. This dissertation offers a feminist, discursive analysis of these fictional narratives of suburban school violence and argues that rampage violence narratives are intricately connected to national anxieties regarding youth, citizenship, threats to white masculinity, and American identity. In order to illustrate the complexities of themes present across popular culture mediums, my research delves into the purpose of the narratives and what they signify about contemporary American youth identity.

WHITE CALLER CRIME: RACIALIZED POLICE COMMUNICATION AND EXISTING WHILE BLACK Chan Tov McNamarah Over the past year, reports to the police about Black persons engaged in innocuous behaviors have bombarded the American consciousness. What do we make of them? And, equally important, what are the consequences of such reports? This Article is the first to argue that the recent spike in calls to the police against Black persons who are simply existing must be understood as a systematic phenomenon which it dubs racialized police communication. The label captures two related practices. First, racially motivated police reporting—calls, complaints, or reports made when Black persons are engaged in behavior that would not have been read as suspicious, or otherwise worthy of police involvement had they been White.
