Bruininks expressed his pleasure th was his first official out-state visit as the Uni~ersity's president. He also stated his admiration for the Morris campus: "I do have a passionate commitment to the University of Minnesota, Morris. Before I got into central administration, and Susan can verify this, we would often entertain young people at our house. My three sons would always tell their friends, 'if you're going to college my dad can tell you the right place to go, and you need to go see him .. '. I for years have always told students who I've talked with that the best single educational buy in the state of Minnesota is a liberal arts education at Morris, and I believe that strongly. You cannot get a better quality education than you can get here." The Bruininks enjoyed the UMM Concert Choir's "The Littlest Angel" Christmas concert and attended a community breakfast in their honor on December 7. 2 Regents determine Robert Bruininks 35 years, holding a variety of positions.

President Bruininks discusses State of Minnesota budget deficit In response to the announcement that the State of Minnesota's budget deficit is is going to tum out, but we need to be thinking about the options.... I think that as projected to reach $4.56 billion in the next biennium, University of Minnesota I go around the country we have to remember that the state provides $630 million President Robert Bruininks said that the University can help: "This is a very dollars a year to the University of Minnesota. This is a state that has made a very challenging time for our state, and we believe that the University of Minnesota is deep investment in us, values us, so I think we have a good base to build on. And part of the solution to the state's economic challenges," said Bruininks. He notes the first job ahead of us-and it is one of the reasons I would urge all of you to the University's history as a revenue generator and points to a new initiative to pay attention this year-get involved, make sure legislators, the governor and improve productivity and service. "We're committed to delivering the highest administration hear from you.

I tried to impress on members of the University community that this was not going to be business as usual. We knew our situation was grave, it was very serious, and that there would be a very significant gap between state revenues and state expenses ....No one expected it to approach 5 billion dollars for the next, basically, two and a half years. It's probably the most serious gap that we have seen, I would say, in forty or fifty years, so it's not going to be easy to deal with. It's for that reason that I felt we [University of Minnesota] needed to send a different message to the state legislature this year. ... our budget would be based on three broad principles. We would tell the state what we needed to maintain the strength of all of our campuses. We would take responsibility for funding some of our own needs, through obvious tuition increases as well as serious internal reallocation, and we would ask the State of Minnesota for a partnership, to meet us halfway. We would provide half of what we needed, and the half that we projected was the lowest budget the University has submitted in the last ten years. Sometimes you get a little lucky. That instinct I had back in the summer was the right instinct. Everywhere I go now, people in the legislature, people in the business community, and leaders throughout the state say the University of Minnesota had the courage to try to do the right thing at a very difficult time. Now, having said that, this budget request is based on real numbers. It would provide $96 million to the University of Minnesota system over the next two years- roughly afford a four and a half percent back-to-back increase. That's not Morris Community welcomes Bruininks ·and Hagstrum chump change. That 's a lot of money.

  • The Amis Inheritance
    Martin Amis ­ Kingsley Amis ­ Writing and Writers ­ Books ­ Authors ... http://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/22/magazine/22amises.t.html?_r=1&o... April 22, 2007 The Amis Inheritance By CHARLES McGRATH Ben Jonson wrote: “Greatness of name in the father oft­times helps not forth, but overwhelms the son; they stand too near one another. The shadow kills the growth.” This Oedipal principle applies to all sorts of professions, but few more so than the literary one. It’s not unheard of for the child of an author to try his hand at writing. Stephen King’s two sons are writers, and so is one of John Updike’s. Hilma Wolitzer’s daughter Meg is a novelist, as is Anita Desai’s daughter Kiran, whose second book just won the Booker Prize — an award that has so far eluded her mother. But writers’ offspring tend to go into the family business with far less regularity than, say, the children of doctors or lawyers, and it seldom happens that over the long haul, and in the deepening shade, the younger equals or outstrips the elder — the way that Anthony Trollope, to take a famous example, bested his mother, Fanny. The exception these days is the curious writerly firm of Amis & Amis, founded by Kingsley, who died in 1995, and now run by his son Martin. Kingsley Amis, an indelible figure in British letters, is the subject of an immense and sympathetic new biography by Zachary Leader (published this month in the United States) that has already caused a stir in England both by reminding readers of how funny Kingsley could be and because of its frankness about his personal life.

Notes Index Copyright About the Book Human consciousness, long the province of literature, has lately come in for a remapping – even rediscovery – by the natural sciences, driven by developments in Artificial Intelligence, neuroscience, and evolutionary biology. But as the richest record we have of human consciousness, literature, David Lodge suggests, may offer a kind of knowledge about this phenomenon that is complementary, not opposed, to scientific knowledge. Writing with characteristic wit and brio, and employing the insight and acumen of a skilled novelist and critic, Lodge here explores the representation of human consciousness in fiction (mainly English and American) in the light of recent investigations in cognitive science, neuroscience, and related disciplines. How, Lodge asks, does the novel represent consciousness? And how has this changed over time? In a series of interconnected essays, he pursues this question down various paths: how does the novel's method compare with that of other creative media such as film? How does the consciousness (and unconscious) of the creative writer do its work? And how can criticism infer the nature of this process through formal analysis? In essays on Charles Dickens, E.M.

  • The Pregnant Widow Free
    FREE THE PREGNANT WIDOW PDF Martin Amis | 480 pages | 31 Mar 2011 | Vintage Publishing | 9780099488736 | English | London, United Kingdom Review: The Pregnant Widow, by Martin Amis - The Globe and Mail This article was published more than 10 years ago. Some information in it may no longer be current. Martin Amis, in The Pregnant Widowdescribes what psychologists call an animal birthday: "An animal birthday is when your body happens to you. Amis's protagonist, Keith, is about to turn 21, and he is waiting for a young woman named Scheherazade to happen to him. He is waiting for the weather to break and the sun to come out so that Scheherazade will appear topless, poolside, at the Italian castle where Keith is lolling away his summer while reading through the British canon. There's nothing else to do for days on end, in this castle, but to long for illicit sex, to ruminate on it and dream about it. Or to at least read about it. Keith is waiting for the sexual revolution to go full-throttle. Amis means to capture the seventies in this novel, but with an older, experienced narrator's The Pregnant Widow in mind. Old Keith is casting back on a body that was happening, from a body that has already happened. This is not just the seventies. This is not just youth and beauty and lust and the sexual revolution, the Cold War and a The Pregnant Widow in Italy. This is all of that seen through a narrator who knows what will become of it.

  • Short-Term Study Abroad Programs: Where They Came
    SHORT-TERM STUDY ABROAD PROGRAMS: WHERE THEY CAME FROM, HOW THEY WORK, AND WHY THEY OFTEN DON’T A Dissertation by KELLY KRISTOPHER LEMMONS Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Jonathan Smith Committee Members, Sarah Bednarz Robert Bednarz Christian Brannstrom Michael Greenwald Head of Department, Vatche Tchakerian December 2013 Major Subject: Geography Copyright 2013 Kelly Kristopher Lemmons ABSTRACT This dissertation shows that the ideology of liberalism formed the basis of the Doctrine of Study Abroad (DSA). The DSA was formed in the 1940s and 1950s and teaches that any time spent studying abroad is beneficial and increases tolerance and world peace. The DSA was established by liberal policy makers within institutions of higher education as a method of liberal education to instill the principles of liberalism in the rising generation. The historically established DSA and its assumptions were tested against the contemporary short-term study abroad movement using three study abroad groups from Texas A&M University. Based on the results it is shown that short-term study abroad does not hold up to the assumptions of the DSA. It is therefore concluded that culture is not inherent in study abroad, that students only make shallow observations and interpretations of potentially meaningful cultural interactions when left to their own devices. It is suggested that “interventions,” such as “cultural coaching” and time set aside for focus and directed reflection be made within the process of student learning while abroad to enable students to have meaningful cultural interactions.
