Opportunities for CMCL students at IDS Weekend
Hello Communication and Culture students!
I'm Peter Chen, and I've been selected as Reviews Editor for the Indiana Daily Student's WEEKEND magazine in Spring 2008. I'm looking for film, music and TV reviewers, and I figured CMCL was a great place to look. I'd especially like to broaden our scope of movies and music beyond the typical "college" genres. For music, I'm looking for reviewers with background in country, metal, bluegrass, classical, jazz, world and local music, and in film, I'm looking for reviewers willing to review Ryder movies, City Lights offerings, classic films now on DVD, etc. However, this is not a must. After all, a good reviewer is a good reviewer.
The application is below. They are due FRIDAY, JANUARY 11, after we get back from break, but I'd appreciate it if you could get back to me before then. Feel free to ask me any questions you might have. My e-mail is pychen@indiana.edu. Thanks!

WEEKEND Reviewer Application
Name:
Year:
E-mail:
Major(s):
Phone:
Positions held on staff (past IDS experience not required):
Other journalism or writing experience (past journalism experience not required):
Other jobs, activities:
Answer the following questions on a separate sheet. Double-spaced, 12-point font would be helpful. Please respond carefully and thoughtfully. Be complete and concise, and limit your answer to two to three pages.
1. What makes a good review?
2. What kinds of music/movies/TV programs/DVDs would you write reviews about?
3. What news sources do you follow? Where do you get your ideas?
4. What influences guide your writing style? What writers do you admire?
5. I would like the Reviews section to have a wider spectrum of genres, especially in music. Would you be willing to write reviews for country, jazz, classical, bluegrass, world or local music?
6. As a reviewer, you will have to write outside your comfort zone and be a critic, not a fan. Could you do that? How would you honestly review period drama if you preferred action-comedy? Would you review jazz if you preferred death metal?
7. Make a list of albums/movies/TV programs with one in each grade range (A, B, C, D, F). (an example for movies: Die Hard – A, Die Hard 3 – B, Die Hard 4 – C, Die Hard 2 – D, The Whole Ten Yards – F)
_________________________________________________________________________________
Attach the application, a spring course/work schedule and a résumé. Also please attach the best two reviews you have or two sample reviews of 300-350 words each. There will be no interviews, but I’d be happy to chat with you – just contact me to schedule a time.

Production Internship with the National Council for the Traditional Arts
A production internship is available with the National Council for the Traditional Arts. A CMCL alum held the position this fall, and she asked me to let you all know about this opportunity. Please contact the director of production, Dennis Blackledge, for more info (dblckldg@ncta.net). Also visit http://www.ncta.net.
Production interns play a key role in producing major festivals, tours and events, and gain valuable experience in areas such as production/technical coordination, travel arrangements, artist and staff communications by working directly with the Production Management Team. Prior experience in music, concert production, theatre production or festival organization preferred.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Qualified applicants for all positions will be energetic, highly organized, hard working, detail oriented, computer literate and team players. Internships with stipend are generally limited to two to three positions annually, and generally require a multi-month commitment. No housing provided. Some evenings, weekends and travel required.
The National Council for the Traditional Arts (NCTA) is a private, not-for-profit corporation dedicated to the presentation and documentation of folk and traditional arts in the United States. Founded in 1933, it is the nation’s oldest multi-cultural producing and presenting organization. The programs of the Council celebrate and honor those arts that are deeply traditional - music, crafts, stories and dance passed down through time by families, communities, tribal, ethnic and occupational groups. NCTA stresses quality and authenticity in presenting folk artists to the public in concerts, national and international tours, festivals, radio and television programs, recordings, films and other programs.

Great Courses in Criminal Justice Have Openings
From the Criminal Justice advisor:
Do you have students who still need S&H courses, or who are at loose ends for filling out their schedules or for finding just the “right” minor? Please let them know about these stimulating course offerings, that still have seats available:
CJUS-P 100 Introduction to Criminal Justice (2 sections)
This course is an introduction to the administration of criminal
justice. Its focus is the structure, functions, and processes of the
criminal justice system. The principle components of the justice
system – the police, courts, and correctional systems – as well as
the complex interrelationships among these organizational components and tensions between them will be examined.
We will explore the processes that constitute each step of the
criminal justice system from decision to arrest, to sentencing,
through reentry as well as definitions of crime and law, the nature
and extent of crime, and the constitutional foundations of law and
justice. The impact of external influences – such as politics and
the media - on the goals and functioning of the criminal justice
system will be analyzed along with historical and international
perspectives on the administration of justice.
Issues of theory versus practice will be illuminated in the criminal
justice system at each step of the process, and our considerations
of the criminal justice system will be contextualized within models
of the criminal justice system such as due process versus crime
control.
Finally, contemporary issues and trends such as sentencing policies,
emerging issues in prisons, terrorism, and the death penalty will be
explored.

CJUS-P 300 Law and Global Corporations
Who should care about the role of the multinational corporations
(MNCs) in a globalizing world? Many people. As future policy-makers,
lawyers, or managers, it is important for you to understand the role
of large multinational business enterprises. Whether you are a labor
lawyer concerned about global trade issues or labor standards, an
environmental activist concerned about the role of MNCs with respect
to environmental policy, or you work as a manager or in-house
counsel for a major MNC, it is important for you to understand the
impact of MNCs on their stakeholders and the society in a
globalizing world, and the various attempts to regulate MNCs.
This course will start with cases illustrating MNCs’ globalizing
strategies, and the implications of this globalizing process. What
responsibilities do the more and more powerful and outreaching MNCs
have to its stakeholders: consumers, employees, governments, the
environment, and the public in general? We will use specific cases
to examine the role of MNCs in perpetuating or alleviating some of
the negative consequences of globalization. Further, we will study
and compare various proposals to define the social responsibilities
of MNCs. Finally, through an evaluation report, you will choose a
publicly-held MNC to examine and incorporate your own research with
the reading below to address the role your firm plays in a
globalizing world.

Student Survey: Views on Family
From the Religious Studies advisor:
I have a former student who is doing an honors thesis. She says: “I am currently studying IU students’ views of the family, specifically gay, lesbian, and co-habiting straight couples and their children. I have authored a 5 minute online survey attempting to gather these opinions from students. It has been IRB approved, is completely confidential, and literally takes less than five minutes to complete.
This survey is completely confidential and that there are no identifiers that can be traced back to respondents.”

Two New Courses on Israel - Spring 2008
Two new courses on Israel in the Spring. No permission required to register for these courses.
JSTU-J 204 Social & Historical Topics in Jewish Studies (3 cr.) Daphne Tsimhoni
Topic: The Arab-Israeli Conflict
TR 4:00-5:30
Important note: This course will begin on Tuesday, January 29 so there will be no free drop period.
Since its inception, the Arab-Israeli conflict has dominated the political agenda and many aspects of life in Israel, the Middle East, and beyond. This course will introduce the students to the origins of the conflict in the late nineteenth century, the British pledge for a Jewish national home and the British mandate for Palestine, the development of the conflict from a local to a regional one, involving the Arab states. We will study the establishment of the State of Israel, the 1948 war and the creation of the Palestinian problem in its various aspects; both the 1956 Suez war and the Six Days 1967 war and their impact on Israel and the Middle East.
We will discuss the emergence of the PLO and the Palestinian organizations, the first Lebanon war, the road to the first Palestinian uprising (intifada), and to the peace accords. We will conclude by discussing the wars and the prospects for peace.
The course will be based on historical studies, various documentation, documentary films, and websites.
Course requirements: two midterm take-home exams and a final essay.
JSTU-J 304 Social & Historical Topics in Jewish Studies/3 cr./ Daphne Tsimhoni
Topic: Jews, Muslims, & Christians in Israel #25561
TR 6:30-8:00
Important note: This course will begin on Tuesday, January 29 so there will be no free drop period.
Established as the nation state of the Jewish people, Israel has an ethno-religious, socioculturally diverse population. This course will introduce students to this diversity and its impact on Israeli politics and society. We will explore the historical origins of this complexity: The religious significance of the Holy Land, the preservation of Ottoman and British mandatory traditions, the 1948 war and the mass immigration to Israel from Europe and the Middle East. We will examine the socio-cultural and religious diversity within the Jewish majority that extends far beyond the common division between western European (Ashkenazim) and Middle Eastern (Mizrahim) and the Palestinian Arab minority that is no less complex and includes Muslims, Christians, Druze and smaller communities.
Based on socio-historical research and documentaries, we will discuss the following issues: Is the breach between the Jewish majority and the Palestinian Arab minority in Israel bridgeable? Is there a 'demographic issue' in Israel? and if so, what is its impact on Israeli politics? Who are the 'Arab Jews'? Can they form a bridge between Jews and Arabs? Is there an Israeli identity? What are its components?
