Celebrating Graduates, Covid Style,James Prosek and Chris Frantz Celebrating Graduates, Covid Style Let the celebrations begin as another school year comes to a close and graduation ceremonies are starting to take place. During the Covid-19 pandemic, serious reconsideration of past traditions had to be made to follow safely regulations and guidelines while still recognizing the accomplishments of graduating classes. Area colleges and universities and the Easton public schools are planning alternative graduation ceremonies to accommodate the 2021 graduates. Some universities have also scheduled ceremonies to recognize the class of 2020 since the coronavirus completely shut down their in-person commencement events last year. Universities in neighboring towns, including Fairfield University and Sacred Heart University, are planning in-person ceremonies to honor the class of 2021 along with the class of 2020. Fairfield University Fairfield University plans to hold in-person celebrations the week of May 17, starting with an in-person commencement ceremony for graduate students The University is estimating just under 1,000 bachelor’s degrees and just over 400 graduate degrees will be conferred between all of the ceremonies. Fairfield University to hold in-person graduation events the week of May 17. Smaller in-person ceremonies for the class of 2021 start Monday, May 17, and go to Wednesday, May 19. The smaller ceremonies include two for the College of Arts and Sciences, two for the School of Business, the School of Nursing and Health Studies with the School of Engineering finishing off the week’s celebrations. A virtual conferral of degrees will be on Sunday, May 23, for both the graduate and undergraduate classes of 2021. Fairfield University will also hold an in-person commencement to celebrate the undergraduate class of 2020 on Saturday, May 22. It will be broken into two smaller ceremonies to accommodate all the students. A virtual ceremony for the graduate class of 2020 is planned for Saturday, May 15. All of the in-person celebrations will be held on campus, rain or shine. Each student will receive two tickets for guests to come to view the ceremonies. Sacred Heart University Sacred Heart University is planning ceremonies very similar to Fairfield University. Sacred Heart will honor the class of 2020 along with the class of 2021. The University held an in-person commencement for the graduate and undergraduate classes of 2020 on Saturday, May 15. “The turnout of the 2020 class is amazing,” said Dr. John Petillo, president of Sacred Heart University. More than 800 students attended the class of 2020 in-person celebrations. The University will hold four graduation ceremonies for the class of 2021 on Wednesday, May 19, and Thursday May 20. These ceremonies are for the College of Arts and Sciences and St. Vincent’s College, the College of Nursing and College of Health Professions, and closing out the undergraduate ceremonies is the College of Business and Technology and the College of Education. The class of 2021 graduate ceremony will conclude the ceremonies on Saturday, May 22. Sacred Heart University’s Class of 2020 Commencement was held on May 15, 2021. Planning the ceremonies has been no easy task. “The graduation/commencement committee worked very hard because things can change from week to week,” said Petillo. Sacred Heart has previously held commencement ceremonies at the Webster Bank Arena in Bridgeport, but due to the coronavirus pandemic the University this year will hold all ceremonies on the campus football field, rain or shine. Each student for all of the ceremonies will receive two guest tickets. Livestream will also be available for all of the events. “The students are delighted for an in-person ceremony,” said Petillo. Joel Barlow High School and Helen Keller Middle School In 2020, Joel Barlow High School and Helen Keller Middle School also had to make alternative plans for remote graduation ceremonies due to Covid-19 pandemic. Barlow held a drive-through style graduation to recognize the graduating class, and Keller sent a pre-recorded video to families in lieu of an in-person ceremony. This year, Barlow will be holding an in-person graduation at the school stadium on June 16 at 6 p.m.. It will be a “pretty traditional commencement with music, speeches, and pomp!” said Dr. Gina Pin, Barlow head of school and assistant superintendent. “Guests will be limited due to stadium capacity and local DPH guidelines,” Pin said. “We are renting staging and have purchased a turf protector as we will be set up on the turf field.” Susan Kaplan, Keller principal, said, “We will be celebrating our grade 8 class with an outdoor community event out on Pond Field on June 15 at 5:30 p.m. Families (including their grade 8 student) will sit together on their own blankets. We expect the ceremony to last approximately 45 minutes.” Additional guidance from Gov. Ned Lamont and the state Department of Public Health will help Connecticut public school officials with commencement decisions for this year. James Prosek and Chris Frantz Together in Fairfield University Virtual Bookstore Author Event The Fairfield University Bookstore located at 1499 Post Road in downtown Fairfield, Conn. invites the public at large to join us on Facebook @ FairfieldUBookstore, Thursday, February 18, at 7 p.m., for a live virtual conversation with Artist/Naturalist, James Prosek, and Chris Frantz, co-founder and drummer of Talking Heads, as they discuss their latest publications. Prosek and Frantz will sit down with Dr. Gale Bellas-Papageorge, Professor of English at Fairfield University and Craig Kennedy, Fairfield University Bookstore Manager for a lively discussion. This is a free event. Event books, Remain in Love and Art, Artifact, Artifice are available for purchase online at www.fairfieldbookstore.com or for in-store pick up. There is so much to be said about Prosek’s and Frantz’s important contributions to art and music, both internationally and within American Culture. Remain In Love scales the Talking Heads’ journey, from the forming of the band at RISD (Rhode island School of Design), to the band’s iconic rise to fame during the 70’s and 80’s Punk/New Wave scene at CBGB’S in NYC and worldwide. Frantz also discusses the formation of the Tom Tom Club and his long time musical collaboration with his talented wife, bassist, Tina Weymouth. Frantz’s memoir has been praised by Billboard, Rolling Stone, and has made numerous 2020 best music book lists in the US and the United Kingdom. Art, Artifact, Artifice is a discussion of Prosek’s current exhibit at Yale University Art Gallery and his philosophy on art, language and the environment. Prosek, who has been compared to the late naturalist painter James Audubon, is well-known for creating the first comprehensive catalogue on North American Trout, which was published while he was an undergraduate student at Yale University. Since then, Prosek has held hundreds of exhibits world and nationwide and has published multiple Illustrated books. He is the author of the Ted Talk, “Why We Draw,” and a regular contributor to National Geographic and the New York Times. His current exhibits are: “Art, Artifact, Artifice” at Yale University Art Gallery, running through Feb 28, 2021. “Made in Connecticut: Celebrating 25 Years of the CT Art Trail” running through February 7, 2021 The Fairfield University Bookstore, located in the heart of downtown Fairfield, is operated by the Follett Higher Education Group and proudly serves Fairfield University, the Fairfield County community and beyond.

The Upside to Hybrid and Online Learning As students, teachers and parents embark on a journey into uncharted territory, there is much concern about how hybrid and online education will impact student learning. The outcome will largely depend on how teachers and parents alike, use resources available to them. Sure, online learning is a different experience, but it has been proven to have many advantages. One valuable asset of online learning is that discussion forums on platforms such as Quip or Blackboard are more in-depth. Students can take time to read and reflect on their peers’ entries in order to compose and revise a well thought out response. They can also go back and revisit a current or previous thread, enabling them to draw more substantive conclusions on a specific topic. Students are often more comfortable participating and asking questions online than in a traditional classroom. They also tend to be more honest and open about their thoughts, especially when confronting difficult topics. Education goes far beyond teaching academic and technical skills as it is also designed to educate students to be compassionate and civically engaged citizens. Jesuits call it “ Care for the individual person.” When it comes to teaching an appreciation of cultures in elementary school or teaching the different manifestations of racial inequality and injustice in the United States to middle and high school students, online learning can have more of an impact, as it allows for a variety of different formats and modalities. Using visual representation such as pictures and videos of individuals telling their own stories, side-by-side written histories, helps to create a more accurate account and a more engaged connection with other human beings while challenging familiar and preexisting narratives. Some of the more common visual online resources include: eBooks,

  • Talking Heads from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Talking Heads From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Background information Origin New York City, New York, United States Genres New wave · post-punk · art pop · funk rock · worldbeat Years active 1975–1991 Labels Sire/Warner Bros., EMI Associated acts Tom Tom Club, The Modern Lovers, Brian Eno Past members David Byrne Chris Frantz Tina Weymouth Jerry Harrison Talking Heads were an American rock band formed in 1975 in New York City and active until 1991. The band comprised David Byrne (lead vocals, guitar), Chris Frantz (drums), Tina Weymouth (bass) and Jerry Harrison (keyboards, guitar). Other musicians also regularly made appearances in concert and on the group's albums. The new wave style of Talking Heads combined elements of punk, art rock, funk, avant-garde, dance, pop, and world music with the neurotic, whimsical stage persona of frontman and songwriter David Byrne. The band made use of various performance and multimedia projects throughout its career. Critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine described Talking Heads as being "one of the most critically acclaimed bands of the '80s, while managing to earn several pop hits." In 2002, the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Four of the band's albums appeared on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time and three of their songs ("Psycho Killer", "Life During Wartime", and "Once in a Lifetime") were included among The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll. Talking Heads were also included at #64 on VH1's list of the "100 Greatest Artists of All Time", placed among Rolling Stone 's similar list as well.

  • Rip “Her” to Shreds
    Rip “Her” To Shreds: How the Women of 1970s New York Punk Defied Gender Norms Rebecca Willa Davis Senior Thesis in American Studies Barnard College, Columbia University Thesis Advisor: Karine Walther April 18, 2007 Contents Introduction 2 Chapter One Patti Smith: Jesus Died For Somebody’s Sins But Not Mine 11 Chapter Two Deborah Harry: I Wanna Be a Platinum Blonde 21 Chapter Three Tina Weymouth: Seen and Not Seen 32 Conclusion 44 Bibliography 48 1 Introduction Nestled between the height of the second wave of feminism and the impending takeover of government by conservatives in 1980 stood a stretch of time in which Americans grappled with new choices and old stereotypes. It was here, in the mid-to-late 1970s, that punk was born. 1 Starting in New York—a city on the verge of bankruptcy—and spreading to Los Angeles and London, women took to the stage, picking punk as their Trojan Horse for entry into the boy bastion of rock’n’roll. 2 It wasn’t just the music that these women were looking to change, but also traditionally held notions of gender as well. This thesis focuses on Patti Smith, Deborah Harry, and Tina Weymouth—arguably the first, and most important, female punk musicians—to demonstrate that women in punk used multiple methods to question, re-interpret, and reject gender. On the surface, punk appeared just as sexist as any other previous rock movement; men still controlled the stage, the sound room, the music journals and the record labels. As writer Carola Dibbell admitted in 1995, “I still have trouble figuring out how women ever won their place in this noise-loving, boy-loving, love-fearing, body-hating music, which at first glance looked like one more case where rock’s little problem, women, would be neutralized by male androgyny.” According to Dibbell, “Punk was the music of the obnoxious, permanently adolescent white boy—skinny, zitty, ugly, loud, stupid, fucked up.”3 Punk music was loud and aggressive, spawning the violent, almost exclusively-male mosh pit at live shows that still exists today.

February, 2014! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! "2 ! ! ! .! PLACEMAKING is the active attempt by a community of people to define and express themselves and the place “where their souls inhabit the soil” as Linda Ronstadt would put it.1 The key thing to understand about placemaking is that the making works in two directions: we make places, and places make us. Think of it as a conversation with ourselves, our predecessors and our descendants, which takes place in space and across time—past, present and future. The stories of our predecessors are etched into our buildings and onto our landscapes, and these stories, in turn, inspire us to leave our mark. How, we ask ourselves, will our lives look to the future based on what we leave behind?" THE PURPOSE OF THIS DOCUMENT is to provoke a conversation among our many placemaking partners that will chart our future work. For the past two and a half years, the Connecticut Department of Economic and Community Development’s Offices of Branding, Innovation, Historic Preservation, the Arts and Tourism have launched initiatives linked through the common denominator of placemaking. What follows is a reflection on what we’ve learned, and how the individual pieces are starting to fit together into a whole fabric of place.

  • Turnerian Rebel
    DBS SCHOOL OF ARTS TURNERIAN REBEL UNCOVERING THE ANTHROPOLOGIST VICTOR TURNER’S LIMINALITY IN MODERN PERFORMANCE LAURA MONKS MAY 2014 SUPERVISOR: DR PAUL HOLLYWOOD THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE BA (HONS) FILM, LITERATURE AND DRAMA Abstract This thesis shall utilize the anthropological studies of Victor Turner to focus on the capacity for an individual, or Turnerian Rebel, to induce ambiguous, and thus possibly revolutionary, symbolic exchange on the musical and theatrical stage. Many Western twentieth century cultural theorists, including Jean Baudrillard, view that traditional forms of social communication have become increasingly attenuated in the light of technology, industry and capitalism. As a consequence the possibility for rebellious social drama is dampened. Through the prism of such critique the discussion will focus on the potential that remains in artistic performance. Firstly there will be an exploration of Turner’s concepts of breach, liminality and communitas, originally observed in ritual and social drama of the Nbemdu African tribe in the nineteen fifties and sixties. This will identify the dynamic nature of social structures and, through symbolic performance, the possibility for the liminal individual to ignite a change or alteration. After which works by playwright Sarah Kane and musician David Byrne shall be analysed to conceive their own rebellious liminality. Ultimately by exposing their breach of social norms, identify the capacity of the modern Turnerian Rebel to create new possibilities for their community. 1 Acknowledgements Thank you to my supervisor Dr. Paul Hollywood for his support and guidance not only with my thesis but over the last four college years.

    SPECIAL EDITION: REPORT TO THE COMMUNITY TITLE TRACK LONG LIVE ROCK OFFICIAL MAGAZINE SUMMER 2019 2019 INDUCTION CEREMONY / WELCOME TO THE GARAGE W WELCOME FROM THE CEO Thanks to you, this was a record-breaking year at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. We are grateful for your friendship and support. I am excited to recap the year and drive home how your continued support impacts this great museum. Here are just a few highlights: We hosted 580,000 visitors in Cleveland, our largest annual impact since opening, and reached millions through our digital channels. We increased accessibility for all by making the museum free to Cleveland residents, thanks to a generous $10 million grant from KeyBank. Rock Hall Live!, powered by PNC, featured 80-plus live outdoor music events ranging from local bands to large-scale productions with artists like Social Distortion and 2014 Inductee John Oates. Over 50,000 students experienced the power of rock & roll through our exhibits and award-winning programs, Rockin’ the Schools and Toddler Rock. We hosted a fantastic Cleveland Induction in 2018—which had a $36.5 million economic impact on the city—and did it all over again in Brooklyn in 2019. We became the first music museum in the world to receive sensory-inclusion certification so that all visitors can experience the museum in the most impactful way. A record number of 2,300 artists stopped by the Rock Hall and inspired us with their gratitude and stories. To amplify this report with deeper content and videos, go to rockhall.com/annual-report.
