Pass/Fail Deadline for First Summer Session
Wednesday, May 19th is the last day to sign up to take a first summer session 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.”

EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY: DEFENSE INTELLIGENCE AGENCY
The Afghanistan-Pakistan Center of Excellence, an internal think-tank established last year at the United States Central Command Headquarters in Tampa, Florida, is seeking to recruit and hire 170 highly qualified personnel as government civilians with the Defense Intelligence Agency. Opening this May, these jobs include full-time positions as well as internship opportunities in the summer, fall, and spring.
The Center is looking for highly motivated individuals with unique knowledge, skills, and abilities, to include academic concentrations or expertise in South/Central Asia studies, strategic studies, political science, international relations, history, sociology, cultural anthropology, Islamic Law, economics, statistics, geographic information systems, and languages like Dari, Farsi, Pashto, Urdu, and Hindi.
As an internal think-tank, the Center of Excellence is bringing together experts from the fight in Afghanistan and Pakistan, from the halls of academia, and from the interagency to stay focused on, build expertise in, and provide improved solutions-oriented analysis for the important missions in those countries and the states around them. The Center is also expanding the number of South and Central Asia experts by providing opportunities for cultural, language, and regional studies, and for deployments to Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Interested students and alumni are encouraged to search for DIA civilian jobs and job/recruiting fairs through the DIA Human Resources website at http://diajobs.dia.mil/ as they become available. As an expedited process, interested students are also encouraged to send their resume directly to the Center of Excellence at coejobs@centcom.mil.
Finally, stay tuned for further recruitment events by the Center of Excellence that will occur over the summer semester!

GLLC-G220 (29824) Music and Medicine (3 cr.) (S&H)
(TR, 11:15-12:35, FQ012A) David Lewis
This class we will examine the ways in which music is embedded in medical systems around topics as diverse as religious healing, drug use, end-of-life care, genocide, autism, and HIV/AIDS. Each case study will include perspectives from a number of fields, including, biomedicine, ethnomusicology, anthropology, Western musicology, public health, and music therapy. In addition, the case studies will take us as far away as Malawi and Malaysia, while also including music-making from within the United States. This class will examine these case studies against larger questions of efficacy in cross-cultural applications of musical therapies as well as the ways in which theoretical and disciplinary orientation affect the scope and aims of medical and musical research.

(TR, 2:30-3:45 pm, FQ012A) Jessica Chelekis
Did you know that there are Avon salespeople in Amazonian communities and African villages? Why would people who have no electricity buy make-up and perfume? In fact, economists, political scientists, sociologists and anthropologists have placed increasing importance on small and micro-businesses as engines of economic development and tools for women’s empowerment in developing countries. This course aims to teach students not only about economic anthropology, but how to apply this sub-discipline to real-world issues and public policy by focusing on a major trend around the world.

By the end of the course, students will be able to discuss the origins, classifications, functions, natures, and evolution of the vampire and what that can tell us about historical periods and our own contemporary cultures.
