Interesting Course for Summer Session II: Medicine in the Media

MSCI M100: Topics in
Medical Sciences
Medicine in the Media

Summer Session II
3 credit hours
MTW 10:00 – 11:15
Place TBA

Do you watch Gray’s Anatomy? House, M.D.? Scrubs? What are they really showing? How accurate are they? This class will look at medicine in popular American media including TV, movies, novels, magazines, and online. Part of the class entails watching these medical TV shows or movies while the other portion will provide students first with the knowledge of basic anatomical systems and later, with the information necessary to recognize some of the well-known diseases that are presented. We will then use this information to critique the media and assess why they present medicine this way. We will use recent media and those from a few years back.

Black Film Center events

The Black Film Center/Archive at Indiana University Bloomington will welcome four acclaimed film directors for a week of free screenings and engagement with students, faculty and the community, starting Monday (March 1).

Most events for "From the Post Colonial to the Global Postmodern? African and Caribbean Francophone Filmmakers and Scholars in Conversation" will take place March 1-5 at the center's new home in suite 044B of the Wells Library, 1320 E. Tenth St.

Filmmakers Gaston Kaboré, from Burkina Faso, Euzhan Palcy, from Martinique, Joseph Gaï Ramaka, from Senegal, and Jean-Marie Teno, from Cameroon, will screen and discuss their films in workshops throughout the week. Several of their films are being shown in Indiana for the first time.

All of the screenings, which will be from 11 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. most days, are free and open to the public. A complete schedule is available at http://www.indiana.edu/~bfca/events/African_Filmaker_24x36.pdf.Two paid parking garages are located nearby.

The final event, a forum with all of the filmmakers and four film scholars, will take place at 3 p.m., March 5, in room A201 of the Lee Norvelle Theatre and Drama Center, 275 N. Jordan Ave. Joining the directors are film scholars Francoise Pfaff of Howard University, Kenneth Harrow of Michigan State University, and Akin Adesokan of IU.

The week-long conversation about Francophone film will focus on a series of questions:

* How useful are the concepts postmodernism, globalization and postcoloniality to African filmmaking practices and diasporic experiences?
* Is the political engagement so fundamental to early African cinema still manifest today?
* Should we view cinematic practice and cinema cultures with a wider lens -- one that includes other forms of cultural production and consumption?
* How do theory and practice in African cinema intersect today?

"The forum will help establish our presence since relocation to a new site, and it was out of personal connections with some of the filmmakers that we thought we could organize something that highlights the global scope of our collections," said Michael T. Martin, director of the Black Film Center/Archive and a professor of African American and African Diaspora studies.

Marissa Moorman, IU assistant professor of history, added, "We decided that we wanted to put these filmmakers in conversation with film scholars to explore the terms that scholars often use -- such as globalization, postcoloniality and postmodernism -- to try and see if these filmmakers find these ideas useful or relevant to what they're doing, whether they shape the films that they're making and the world they're living in."

Eileen Julien, professor and chair of the IU Department of Comparative Literature, said she hopes that film lovers from beyond the Bloomington campus and across Indiana will come for the week's events. "There are films morning, afternoon and evening on most days, and we hope that anyone who has an interest will find time to come and see some wonderful films for free and to meet the filmmakers," she said.

More about the directors:

Kaboré directed the Centre National du Cinéma in Burkina Faso and taught at the Institut African d'Education Cinématographique before making his film, Je Reviens De Bokin (I Come From Bokin). His first feature, Wend Kuuni (1982) was the second feature film produced in Burkina Faso and has been described as a breakthrough for the way it translated African oral tradition to the screen. His subsequent work has received numerous international awards, including a French César award and the grand prize at the 15th Panafrican Film and Television Festival of Ouagadougou (FESPACO) for his 1997 film Buud Yam.

Martinican filmmaker Palcy is best known for her internationally acclaimed 1983 drama Rue cases nègres (Sugar Cane Alley). The praise for this film led her to Hollywood where she became the first black woman to direct a film for a major studio. The film, A Dry White Season was based on the novel by South African Andre Brink. Palcy's many awards include the Venice Film Festival's Silver Lion Award for Best First Work (1983), the César Award for Best New Director of a Feature Film (1984), the U.S.-based Political Film Society Award for A Dry White Season (1990), and the Silver Raven Award for Siméon at the Brussels International Festival of Fantasy Film (1993).

Senegalese director Ramaka's short film Ainsi soit-il (So Be It) won the Silver Lion award at the Venice Film Festival in 1997. His first feature film, Karmen Geï (2001), an adaptation of the Georges Bizet opera Carmen, set in contemporary Senegal, has been screened at Cannes, Sundance and the Los Angeles Film Festival where it won the Best Feature Award. His recent documentary, Et si Latif avait raison? (What if Latif Were Right?), on the culture of autocracy under current Senegalese president Abdoulaye Wade, was awarded Best Documentary Film at the Festival Vues D'Afriques (Montreal) in 2006.

Cameroonian Teno has lived in France since 1977 and in 1985 began working as a television editor and as a film critic for Buana Magazine. His second short film, Hommage (1987), won him the short-film award of the Festival Vues dAfriques in Montréal. His first full-length feature film, Clando, was nominated in the same year for the category "best film" at the International French-language Film Festival in Namur, Belgium. His documentaries Afrique, je te plumerai (Africa, I'll Fleece You) and Le Malentendu Colonial (The Colonial Misunderstanding) are widely taught in African Studies classrooms.

The project is supported by the IU African Studies Program, Black Film Center/Archive, the College of Arts and Sciences, the College Arts and Humanities Institute, the Office of the Provost, the Office of the Vice President for International Affairs, the IU departments of Comparative Literature and Communication and Culture, the Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies, and the Sound and Video Analysis and Instruction Laboratory in the IU Department of Folklore and Ethnomusicology.

Every year almost 140,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with some form of blood cancer, including leukemia and lymphoma. For some patients, Stem Cell Transplants utilizing matched donors offer the best hope for a cure.

Lindsay's Story:

As a senior at Duke University I was expecting to face many transitions: from the classroom to the corporate office, from living on my parents’ dime to striking it out on my own, from living in the protective bubble of college to figuring out how to navigate city life. The transition from healthy young woman to bald cancer warrior, though, was a big one that I’d never anticipated.

In November 2008, I was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. Over the past year and a half, as an ongoing patient and survivor, I have learned to replace “Why Me?” with “What’s Next?” I have endured three different regimens of chemotherapy, laid in the exact same position every day for a month for radiation, and rehabilitated from too many surgeries to count. After each failed attempt at remission, I have felt myself grow stronger rather than weaker. However, my cancer just won’t take the hint.

My current “What’s Next” is a stem cell transplant, a process that utilizes a matched donor to revamp my entire immune system. I have been unable to beat my cancer with my body’s own resources, so I am searching for someone else’s stem cells to do the trick. In short, I need your help. With the stem cells of a matched donor, I can beat my Lymphoma, and transition from bald cancer warrior back to healthy young woman.

70% of the people who need stem cell or bone marrow transplants do not have a compatible donor in their family and must look in bone marrow registries for an unrelated donor. As more people are registered and the database grows, the chance that someone like Lindsay will find a match increases significantly. DKMS has helped match donors for over 19,000 bone marrow transplants by adding more people to the national database.

What are the basic eligibility requirements to register as a bone marrow donor?
• Be between the ages of 18 and 55
• Be in good general health
• Not be HIV positive or at risk for AIDS
• Not have severe heart disease
• Not have a history of cancer
• Not have severe asthma (daily inhalers are acceptable)
• Not have diabetes requiring insulin
• Not have hepatitis
• Not have epilepsy
• Not have chronic or severe back problems or surgery
• Not have autoimmune disorders such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis or multiple sclerosis

Campus Movie Fest

My name is Brandon Carroll. I am a senior here at IU. I am part of a student organization known as the BAA - Blooming Artists Agency. We are working on bringing the Campus Movie Fest to IU again this year and we were curious if you could send out a simple teaser email to let students know it is coming. The dates this year have the competition starting April 6th and ending April 12th with the finale being the 15th or 16th. As the dates grow nearer, I'm sure we will have more information for the students on where to gather their equipment and such. A link to their website can be found here as well - http://www.campusmoviefest.com/index.php

Screening of “The Citizen Kane of Bad Movies”

On Tuesday, March 2 at 7:00pm in the Whittenberger Auditorium in the IMU, we will be showing a screening of “The Citizen Kane of Bad Movies” entitled The Room. It has been called one of the worst movies ever made, from cinematography, to sound, to set, and most importantly terrible script writing and terrible acting. The film was independently produced by a man named Tommy Wiseau who is also the films screenwriter, director, and star. After the film’s screening, Mr. Wiseau will be giving a lecture and holding a question and answering session with students. I believe this is a unique opportunity to take advantage of, as often times there is not a focus placed on how NOT to act, direct, or write. The film and discussion is free to all students with a valid ID and $5 for the public and those without an ID. It would be greatly appreciated if you could please pass this email along to the instructors in the CMCL department and other film professors who could inform their students of this truly one-of-a-kind opportunity. It is a rare chance to have someone so involved with the making of a film to come and talk to students about the creative process of making a film. Especially a filmmaker whose film is starting to gain a cult following.

New Screening Series in Chicago: Call for Short Films

Greetings,

A new screening series in Chicago is looking for short films and videos. The gist of the series is that we will be putting together programs mixing awesome, new work, with older, more established fare. Theoretically, we'll be screening stuff in all formats, but submissions would be best on DVD, or, even better, e-mail me links to a website and tell me what to watch.

Since the most reckless self-promoters are not necessarily the best filmmakers, I'd really like to encourage all you shy, reticent geniuses out there to send along your work. And ideally, we'll be paying artists what we can - which might not be much, tho.

Send work to:

Tom McCormack
1522 W. Augusta Blvd. Apt. 1F
Chicago, IL 60642

Spaces still available in Journalism Spring 2010 2nd 8 week courses

Hello,

Just a reminder that the following SPRING 2010 2nd 8 week classes in Journalism have plenty of available seats.

The course, JOUR-C 201, Hot Topics in Journalism, does not count in the Journalism major. It is designed for non-journalism students. No topic will fulfill any Journalism requirements.

If a student has taken the topic: "Hot Topics" before, then they should not re-take it as the course will be a course repeat. However, it may be repeated with a different topic.

We have four different classes under the heading of Hot Topics. Two are "Hot Topics in Journalism." One covers topics in Sports Journalism. One covers Entertainment Journalism, titled Scandalized: Tabloids and the News. All are taught by experienced instructors with a strong background in the topics.

Please let me know if you have questions. Also, Ms. Linda Long, Student Services Assistant, is the primary contact for questions about the course. Please call her at 855-9248, e-mail ljlong@indiana.edu.

Thank you for sharing the information with your students.

1. JOUR-C201: Hot topics in journalism. Does not count in Journalism degree, for non-majors. 2nd 8 week course. 3 credits.
TWO CLASSES: TOPIC IS "HOT TOPICS"

A. Class 8205 6-8 pm, MW, Woodburn 100, Jeff Cannon

The media occupy a "hot" space in audiences' everyday lives. Through them we come to know the range of people, issues and controversies in politics, economics, and entertainment. This course examines recent trends in journalism, particularly changes in technology, regulation, and globalization that have tested the limits and role of journalism in a democracy. Guest speakers will address everything from social networking to ethics to the effects of such popular entertainment properties as the Twilight book/film series. Students can expect to leave this course with command of a practical toolkit of concepts for critically evaluating journalism and mass media for years to come.

Required text: Kovach, B., & Rosenstiel, T. (2007). The Elements of Journalism. New York, NY: Three Rivers Press.

B. Class 13127 Ernie Pyle Hall Room 220 Tuesday & Thursday 5:45-7:45 pm. Teaching this course is Emmy award-winning television reporter Marty Pieratt.

Journalism, media, and mass communications are such a crucial part of our everyday life. This course is designed to help students understand the institutions, places, and people surrounding today's dynamic world communications convergence. A student in any area of study will find this course extremely beneficial in understanding the media world, and by the end of the semester should leave historic Ernie Pyle Hall with the ability to critically evaluate journalism and mass media

We will study the differences between professional journalists in print, broadcast, public relations and online media, and those who may be merely pretending. We will focus on both the pioneers of journalism history and the innovators of today's new media and citizen journalism. This course will focus on the practices and effects of all media from local to international. We will always touch on the hot topics of the day and how it is handled by the media, politicians, and analyze how it is absorbed by social media, our culture, and the world. Guest speakers will include media professionals and other guests connected with IU's nationally-recognized School of Journalism. Each lecture will be presented in a fast-moving, compelling style with audio, video, and graphic features.

Class discussion and debate is more than encouraged. Students need to be prepared to keep pace with all forms of daily mass media.

Required text: Kovach, B., & Rosenstiel, T. (2007). The Elements of Journalism. New York, NY: Three Rivers Press.


2. TOPIC IS SPORTS JOURNALISM:

A. Class 31599, Jour-C 201: Sports Journalism, MW 3:35-5:35 pm, Rawles Hall 100. Jeff Cannon.

Topic: "Warriors, Legends and Icons."

Among the 20th century's most notable cultural developments was the rise in prominence of sports in society. Countless games and pastimes became cultural foci, thanks largely to the reports of a nascent sports media. One hundred years after its virtual birth, sports reporting is as developed an institution as are the sports it now covers.

3. TOPIC IS SCANDALIZED: TABLOIDS & THE NEWS

A. Class 31730, JOUR-C 201. 6-8 pm, MW, Ernie Pyle hall 214. Lori Henson.

Paparazzi and tabloid reporters capture with breathless enthusiasm the trials and tribulations of celebrities from Lindsey Lohan to Tiger Woods to presidential candidate John Edwards. But these scandals don't confine themselves only to the pages of supermarket rags and online gossip sites. Tabloid scandals pervade mainstream media and seep into American culture as a whole. This course will examine the history of tabloid journalism - from the "yellow journalism" of the early 20th century to today's tech-savvy coverage. It will examine how mainstream news has been impacted by - but attempted to distance itself from - tabloid sensationalism. Finally, it will examine the ways technology is blurring the lines between celebrity, audience and journalist.

The Provost’s Award for Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity

In recognition of the importance of undergraduate research and creative activity, Indiana University-Bloomington has established the Provost’s Award for Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity.

Sponsored jointly by the Provost, the Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education, and the Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs, the Award recognizes not only outstanding achievement in research and creative activity, but the importance of such creative and research experiences for undergraduates.

Student Award
The student recipients of this award will receive a certificate and $500 and will be recognized at the Honors Convocation in the spring semester of each year.

Faculty Mentors
This award also recognizes that faculty who mentor undergraduates make a significant difference, encouraging and guiding students, as well as engaging them in this learning process and advocating for them. A good faculty mentor provides a role model for methods of inquiry and expression in a field of study and for the responsible conduct of research and creative activity. Good mentors often provide students with their first entry into professional circles and support the dissemination of the student’s work through participation in professional conferences, exhibitions, performances or publication.

Faculty mentors receive a commemorative pin, research funds for personal use in the amount of $500, and $500 in funding to support the future mentoring of undergraduates. Faculty mentors will also be recognized at the Honors Convocation.

Nominations
All undergraduate students and faculty are eligible.

Students are nominated to the dean of the relevant school by professors with whom they have worked and are then selected by the school for nomination to the Provost. Each school may nominate no more than two undergraduates in each category.
Eligible papers or projects may come from disciplines across the professions, social and applied sciences, arts, humanities, natural sciences and mathematics. The categories are conceived to be broad and flexible, and to embrace activity of diverse kinds. Nominations of students who have engaged in multidisciplinary
work are welcomed. In such cases, please indicate all relevant categories.

The broad categories are:
(1) Natural and Mathematical Sciences
(2) Social and Applied Sciences
(3) Professional Inquiry
(4) Performing and Creative Arts
(5) Humanities

Nominations must include:

1. a statement from the faculty mentor describing
 his/her experience in mentoring the nominee and the positive impact of the
activity/mentoring on the student’s scholarship, creativity and development
 a statement about the accomplishments of the nominee in the project for which
he/she has been nominated
 relevant information about activity in involving and guiding undergraduate students
in research or creative projects

2. a reflective statement by the student about how the research or creative experience has enhanced their opportunities for learning AND a brief summary of the way in which the experience was enhanced by the mentor.

3. published or unpublished work by the student, or evidence of creative activity (CD or DVD containing jpeg, mpeg or video files), for which the student is being nominated. A campus‐wide committee then makes recommendations to the Provost. The committee will consist of:

The Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education
The Vice Provost for Faculty and Academic Affairs
Dean of the University Graduate School
Faculty representing each of the broad disciplinary categories.

The deadline for nominations to the deans, which should be sent to the contact person identified by your school, is Friday February 19, 2010.

Deans’ nominations should be forwarded to Sonya Stephens, VPUE (c/o Gail Londergan,
londer@indiana.edu ) by Monday March 1, 2010.

The Provost will announce winners on or before March 10, 2010.

Feb. 19 underground screening

Hello all, this week's underground screening follows up on last Fall's presentation of "Beauty Becomes the Beast" with more films by Ireland's Vivienne Dick. Dick's early films, which were key works in the short-lived No Wave film scene of late-70s New York, draw on that movement's emphasis on raw amateurism while also exhibiting an overt feminist sensibility. We'll be showing three shorts: "Guerillere Talks," "She Had Her Gun All Ready," and "Staten Island."
************************
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.

IU Athletics Internship - Summer and '10-'11 Academic Year

IU Athletic Marketing Internship
Basic Information and Requirements

Area: Sport Marketing
Supervisor: Ashleigh Bachert
Paid/Unpaid (If paid, how much?): Unpaid
Does the worker earn credit: Yes – check with your academic advisor to see how many credits you are able to earn
Graduate/Undergraduate student: Either
Length of Time/Dates Occupied: Late August-May and May-August (summer internship)

You must have excellent communication and interpersonal skills, be able to manage multiple tasks and a schedule that includes long hours/weekends, and be willing to commit to the position for the entire academic year or summer. It is preferred that you are currently enrolled at Indiana University Bloomington and that you have some sort of experience working with or volunteering at athletic events.

You will have many duties and responsibilities as an intern at the Indiana University Athletic Department. Interns must be available to staff sporting events including all home football games and many men’s and women’s basketball games. Each intern will be assigned to a specific sport and will be required to work on marketing and promotion plans, as well as work at the events. In addition, interns will assist with ticket sales campaigns geared towards increasing attendance and ticket revenue on campus and throughout the community. If you are planning to do a summer internship with IU Athletics, you will be a part of the planning of our fall sports, selling of football and combination football and men’s basketball season tickets to students during orientation, getting information out about our teams during summer festivals and events and distributing information about our teams around the community.

While you will be assigned different projects to work on in the office based on your specific designated sport, you may also be asked to deliver sports posters and schedule cards to local stores, restaurants, and other locations throughout the community, as well as assist with local events in Bloomington.

When you first interview with us, you will give us a schedule of times you can work either in the office or game days. This will help us work out when everyone is in the office and not overbook our resources. When you schedule your office hours, understand that the more you are in the office the more responsibility you are given. With this in mind, however, do not over extend yourself. Each week, you are required to have a minimum of 8 hours in the office. Office hours begin at 9:30 AM and end at 5 PM, Monday through Friday. Lunch time is normally from noon to 1 PM.
Attendance at meetings is required unless you give 2 days notice. We typically try and schedule staff meetings at 7 AM once a month, so everyone can attend the meeting even if they have class at 8 AM.

Game days are a great way to understand and see how we run an event. Typical game days will start an hour to 2 hours prior to the opening of the gates at the game. They will last between a half hour to an hour after the conclusion of the game depending on what we have going on at each event. You will be asked to stay for the whole event unless you have already worked something out with the corresponding marketing representative.

Sports
We promote all 24 of our varsity sports. This means that we work to get the word out about all of the home contests and some away contests. We also run the game day atmosphere of all of their events. Some events will not need a full marketing set up, i.e. men’s golf won’t have music and promotions, but we will set up a marketing table and make sure we have posters, schedule cards, etc. at the event. We also promote any BIG TEN and NCAA championships that we may host throughout the year.

If you are interested in applying for our internship program, please fill out the application on the next page. You can mail, drop off or email your application to Ashleigh Bachert. The contact information is located at the bottom of the application. The deadline to apply for the summer internship is March 12th by 5 PM. We will be holding interviews March 22 – 26. The deadline to apply for the 2010-11 Academic Year is April 12th by 5 PM. Interviews will be held May 3-5.

The Second Annual Campus-wide Conversation on Diversity

The Office of the Provost and the Indiana University Bloomington Diversity Committee
Invite you to
The Second Annual Campus-wide Conversation on Diversity
An INTERACTIVE Forum: “Toward Civil Conversation”
Wednesday, March 10, 2010
7:00 p. m.- 9:00 p.m.
Alumni Hall, Indiana University
Bloomington, Indiana

On September 9, 2009, during a joint session of Congress, while President Obama was delivering a speech on health care, Representative Joe Wilson of South Carolina shouted to the President, “you lie!” Four days later, on September 13, rapper Kanye West interrupted Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech at the MTV Awards in Radio City Music Hall. And Congressmen and women at town hall meetings have been shouted down. Are such acts aberrations? Are they emblematic of a new cultural civility? To what extent are topics such as education, identity and belonging, immigration, economics, fear over who owns America, who may speak on behalf of the country, and power and race, involved? To what extent is IUB implicated? Panelists and audience members will grapple with what recent issues and events tell us about the practice of reasonable and worthwhile public discourse and behavior in civic culture.

• Gerardo Gonzalez, Dean, School of Education
• Michael Grossberg, Sally M. Reahard Professor of History & Professor of Law\Director, Political & Civic Engagement Program (PACE)

Part I: Attention: working together to address challenges

This part is devoted to taking stock of resources and practices; mapping existing campus relations for coordinating diversity efforts; locating gaps and overlaps; coming up with a roadmap for IU Bloomington’s diversity mission. (Panel and speakers on March 2nd and March 4th).

Part III: Connection: cooperatively building for the future
Are existing paradigms (e.g., black and white, over- and under-represented) adequate to our diversity mission? How do we rethink paradigms in response to the needs and vision of our diversity mission? How do individuals and units collaborate to make the best use of our talents and resources? (Panel and speakers, April 8th and April 15th).

Come and make this series truly inclusive! For more information, calendar of events, including workshops throughout campus and blogs see: www.indiana.edu/~ARC2010
