FREE PRACTICE TEST FOR INDIANA UNIVERSITY STUDENTS-Make Up Session
On March 7th Kaplan will be offering a campus-wide MAKE UP opportunity for students to take a free practice GRE, LSAT, or MCAT, administered under simulated testing conditions at the IU Kelly School of Business.

Last year, tens of thousands of Kaplan Practice Test participants assessed their test-taking skills while learning valuable strategies to help them ace the real test. Since admission to LAW, BUSINESS, GRADUATE, and MEDICAL and school is fierce, a high exam score is crucial to the admissions process.

Volunteer Opportunity with Stone Belt
Hello! My name is Michelle Davenport and I am a student at Indiana University. In 2007, I developed a theatre program at Stone Belt which is a local agency that serves individuals with disabilities. I assisted 9 clients in writing personal monologues. These monologues were then performed by these clients on November 24th, 2008 at the Bloomington Playwright’s Project. I am graduating in August, but Stone Belt want to continue this theatre program. We are looking for 2-3 students to be the new directors. We want at least one of the directors to be a technical director. These students do not need to have any experience in the theatre or experience with individuals with disabilities. If you have any question please email me at msdavenp@indiana.edu. Applications are due March 6th at 5 pm. I will select ten students to be interviewed and then 2-3 students will be chosen by April 3rd.

Film Series on the Holocaust in Italy
The College Arts and Humanities Institute (CAHI) is pleased to announce the following film series on the representation of the Holocaust in Italy:
The Department of French & Italian presents
La Shoah
L'orrore da non dimenticare
A film series to commemorate the Holocaust in Italy.
February 23-26, 2009
January 27, in Italy, is Memorial Day, and coincides with the liberation of the prisoners from Auschwitz. While there are still people who deny the Holocaust, the goal of this film series is that of preserving the memory as well as stressing the effects of the racial laws in Italy and in other European countries.
Monday, February 23, 5:15 pm
Swain Hall West 119
Concorrenza sleale (Unfair Competition)
A film by Ettore Scola (2001)
Rome 1938: What happens to Umberto, a Catholic (Diego Abatantuono) and Leone, a Jew (Sergio Castellitto), who both own a men's clothing store, on the same street, after the racial laws are approved in Italy ? In Italian with no English subtitles.
Tuesday, February 24, 5:15 pm
Morrison Hall 007
Memoria (Memory)
A documentary by Ruggero Gabbai
The first Italian documentary on the Italian Jews deported to Auschwitz – the director, Ruggero Gabbai, interviewed some of the 830 survivors of the 8,500 Italian Jews deported. The documentary also includes scenes of the barracks where they were held. In Italian with no English subtitles.
Wednesday, February 25, 5:15 pm
Morrison Hall 007
Volevo solo vivere (I only Wanted to Live)
A documentary by Mimmo Calopresti, 75 minutes
Interviews with Italians who survived the Nazi-Fascist deportation. In Italian with English subtitles.
Thursday, February 26, 5:15 pm
Morrison Hall 007
La tregua (The Truce or The Awakening)
A film by Francesco Rosi (1996)
Follows the release and the return to Italy of Italian chemist turned author Primo Levi from Auschwitz. The film is a careful adaptation of Levi’s second book on his experience in the concentration camp. It took filmmaker Francesco Rosi 10 years to make the film. The journey home took Levi and his few companions through many different countries. Through his companions and his new experiences, his appreciation of life and freedom slowly returns. (In English)
Background: Racism against Jews in Fascist Italy
« È tempo che gli Italiani si proclamino francamente razzisti. Tutta l'opera che finora ha fatto il Regime in Italia è in fondo del razzismo. Frequentissimo è stato sempre nei discorsi del Capo il richiamo ai concetti di razza. La questione del razzismo in Italia deve essere trattata da un punto di vista puramente biologico, senza intenzioni filosofiche o religiose. La concezione del razzismo in Italia deve essere essenzialmente italiana e l'indirizzo arianonordico. »
(La difesa della razza, anno I, numero 1, 5 agosto 1938, p. 2)
Gennaro Marciano. Tuteliamo e Difendiamo la Sanità della Razza! Rome: Stabilimento Tipografico Europa, 1933.
The question of defending the Italian race came up precociously -- five years before the regime promulgated its discriminatory laws -- in this appeal for a concerted campaign against tuberculosis.
Paolo Orano. Gli Ebrei in Italia. 2nd ed. Rome: Casa Editrice Pinciana, 1938.
Orano's diatribe (first published in 1937) provided the intellectual premise for the racial laws directed by Mussolini's government against its Jewish subjects in the course of 1938. This subtle, nuanced, but devastating attack on Italy's forty thousand Jews for their alleged Zionist sympathies, championing of "degenerate" avant-garde cultural expressions, and doubtful loyalty to the Fascist regime and its imperial claims, was an ominous prelude to the impending storm. Prompt responses to Orano's work by prominent Jewish figures, also exhibited here, were to no avail.
Abramo Levi. Noi Ebrei. Rome: Casa Editrice Pinciana, 1937.
Levi's Noi Ebrei, a response to Paolo Orano's Gli Ebrei in Italia, is primarily an anthology of contemporary writings intended to demonstrate that the Jews in Italy, totaling a mere forty thousand in a population of forty-three million, did not constitute a problem for Italian society, but were instead loyal, fully integrated citizens, for the majority of whom Zionism had scarce appeal. Mussolini's racial laws discriminating against Jews and depriving them of most of their civil rights were promulgated the following year.

Feb. 6 underground screening--Holy Mountain
Hello all, this week's underground screening is Alejandro Jodorowsky's wild and wooly Holy Mountain.
**********************************
Following our Fall screening of Jodorowsky's El Topo, we present his follow-up, which may be even stranger. As in El Topo, this film focuses on a lone protagonist (The Thief) seeking self-improvement through encounters with a series of powerful individuals. All the way through to its surprise ending, which shifts the film's concern with the liminal space between heaven and earth into another register, The Holy Mountain is surreal, psychedelic, and revelatory. (114 min.)
***********************************
The underground film series is sponsored by Indiana University's Department of Communication and Culture. All screenings are on alternating Fridays at 7 p.m. in room 251 of the Radio-TV building on the IU campus. All screenings are free and open to the public, and free parking is ample in the lot adjacent to the building, provided you clearly display an underground flyer on the dashboard of your vehicle.

Volunteer Opportunity in Guatemala
Hey!
How's it going? I'm organizing a trip to Guatemala this spring break
that I thought would be interesting to you. It's really going to be an
amazing experience...
In a nutshell, the trip is going to be a combination of meaningful
agricultural volunteer work, relaxation, and some very exotic
excursions. The group will be working very closely with a
community-based non-profit organization to ensure that the volunteer
work we do will actually have a serious positive impact. And it's
going to be fun. We'll be in a charming Guatemalan city that has a
pretty sweet nightlife, and we're even going to hike an active volcano!
This won't be your typical Spring vacation. Unlike being a traditional
tourist, you'll actually form relationships with the local community,
gain incredible intercultural experience, learn more about yourself,
and make a real difference in the world. The trip may seem a bit
pricey at first glance, but I think that it's definitely a good
investment.
Think about it... this March you can either sit at home twiddling your
thumbs like everyone else, or go on a trip that will enrich your entire
college experience and touch the lives of others.
If you're interested, please email me at ecockrel@indiana.edu and I'll
send you some more specific information. I'm also holding an
information session between 4pm and 7pm on Saturday February 7th at the
IMU Starbucks, where I'll review the details of the trip and answer any
questions. Also look for me in the main library lobby Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday of next week. I hope that you can make it!

Pass/Fail Deadline for Full-Semester Classes
Monday, February 9th is the last day to sign up to take a full-semester class pass/fail.
If you are interested in taking a class pass/fail, please stop by my office (in the CMCL building at 800 E. 3rd Street, room 259) so we can complete the required paperwork.
Here is some information about the pass/fail option from the College of Arts and Sciences Bulletin (http://www.indiana.edu/~bulletin/iub/college/2008-2010/student.shtml#pass): “During the four years of their undergraduate program, students in good standing (not on probation) may enroll in a maximum of eight elective courses to be taken with a grade of P (Pass) or F (Fail). The Pass/Fail option is open for a maximum of two courses per academic year, including summer sessions. For the Pass/Fail option, the academic year is defined as beginning with the start of the fall semester and ending with the end of the second summer session. The course selected for Pass/Fail must be an elective (i.e., it cannot fulfill requirements other than the minimum 122 hours required for the degree, and the requirements for credit hours at the 300-400 level). It may not be used to satisfy any of the College of Arts and Sciences’ general education requirements, nor may it be counted as a part of the student’s concentration area, nor may it be counted toward completion of a minor or certificate program. The course or courses may be used to meet the requirement for courses at the 300-400 level.”
