Fall 2014 Intensive Writing: CLAS-C308 Roman Law

CLAS C308 Roman Law

 

TR 09:30-10:44

 

Professor Cynthia J. Bannon

cbannon@indiana.edu

 

This course introduces the Roman legal system, and more generally the process and history of legal

thinking. We focus on the Roman law of delict, that is, wrongful damage to private property

(roughly equivalent to the modern law of torts). This topic allows us to investigate Roman ideas

about personal safety and personal space, product liability and employment ethics.

More broadly, this class investigates how law worked in Roman society, from trial procedures to the

limits of justice. We consider the sometimes competing interests that influence the law including

social status, economic goals, public safety, and cultural values. What happens when my neighbor

demolishes part of my house? Or when a doctor makes a mistake in surgery? Does it make any

difference if the patient was a slave or a free man? Why is it just (is it just at all?) to impose different

penalites on people guilty of the same offense?

 

We will explore the topic through the ‘case law’ method, analyzing Roman legal cases. Students

learn legal reasoning and practice them on Roman law. Modern legal cases are also be discussed for

comparison. Thus Roman Law is a good fit for students with varied interests including sociology,

economics, criminal justice, history, and psychology.

 

Written work includes quizzes, short essays, and a long paper. This class carries IW credit.

Cool fall courses about spying from the Department of Information and Library Science

Learn to spy!

I399 FROM JAMES BOND TO ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE AND NSA LEAKS: EVALUATING INFORMATION AND INTELLIGENCE

Fall 2014:  INFO I399 (34681, 34682, or 34683)

How would you know if the zombie apocalypse was really here?

Is James Bond a spy or a covert operations agent?

Did you believe that mermaids were real after you saw “Mermaids: The Body Found” on Animal Planet? How would you keep the government from snooping on you? Ever wonder how to imbed a listening device into a cat? How do you crash a web site? Who is Anonymous? What is the “Information Age”? How would you use social media to analyze a war or your friends’ behavior?

 

Learn to spy on the spies!

I399 Topics: Moles, Deception, and Counterintelligence

Fall 2014:  INFO I399 (34819)

Does Jack Bauer on the TV show 24 really have to beat people almost to death to protect the U.S. from terrorists?

Does NSA data collection on US citizens create a police state?

Far from being only a defensive activity counterintelligence includes disrupting adversaries’ information flow or disseminating disinformation intended to make adversaries take action contrary to their own interests. Unlike security, which is intended to simply prevent adversaries’ access to information, persons, objects, and territory, counterintelligence may invite the adversary in to increase knowledge of their capabilities and intentions, or to create a veil of deception to fool the enemy. Counterintelligence can be offensive as well as defensive.

 

Spying Master Class!

I399 Topics: Strategic Intelligence

Fall 2014:  INFO I399 (34815)

What key mistakes did the CIA and FBI make before 9/11?

Will Iran soon exceed China as the world’s cyber-espionage enemy?

Strategy is not a plan, it is a perspective for previewing innovation and imagination in policy, business, NGOs, national security, and the military. Unfortunately, our normal habits of thought prevent us from being able to see past the quotidian to what could prevent the next big attack or help us take advantage of the next big thing.

HIST-A 200 "Dr. Kinsey and American Culture" - Summer 2014, 1st 6 weeks

HIST-A 200 – Dr. Kinsey and American Culture

A200 (sect. 12239) Dr. Kinsey and U.S. Culture (3 credits)

Instructor: H. Allinson

Meets 12:40-2:30 MTWR

Meets IUB GenEd S&H and COLL (CASE) S&H Breadth of Inquiry Credit

 

Dr. Alfred Kinsey is often credited with (or accused of) transforming American attitudes towards sex and sparking the sexual revolution. For some, he was a hero, while others have called him a fraud, a pervert, and even a pedophile. Since his death in 1956, 5 biographies have been written about him, and the 2004 biopic about him made Kinsey a household name. What made this IU professor such an important and controversial figure?

            This course examines Dr. Kinsey’s life, work, and legacy, and places him in the broader context of U.S. cultural history. What cultural trends was Dr. Kinsey responding to as he taught and conducted his research? What impact, if any, did he have on those trends? Was his research on sexual behavior truly “revolutionary”?

            Topics to be covered include: the I.U. Marriage course, venereal diseases, eugenics, sex research, the cold war, the sexual revolution, the evolution of homo-/hetero- sexual identities, transgender identities and politics, and contemporary research at the Kinsey Institute. Readings will include unpublished documents from Dr. Kinsey’s archives, and the class will include a visit to the Kinsey Institute.

Will your next speeding citation include being swabbed for a genetic sample? Is OJ guilty? Who is buried in the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier? Is there really tiger bone in that love potion? Was that sushi you just ate really tuna? These and many other questions will be addressed in this course.

EURO-E405, Greek History Meets Greek Film

Greek History Encounters Greek Film, EURO-W405/W605

Tuesday and Thursday 5:45-7:00 PM, Film Screenings on Monday at 5:45 PM or Arranged

Greek History Encounters Greek Film is an interdisciplinary course that provides an overview of Modern Greek history while simultaneously addressing larger questions about the representation of history through the medium of film.  The course will begin with a historical overview that will introduce you to modern Greece’s fascinating and complex history.  We will focus on a variety of events including the Greek Enlightenment and the national revolution, the first Kingdom of Greece, the Balkan Wars, modernization, the Asia Minor Catastrophe, WWII and the Occupation, the Civil War, the Military Junta of 1967-1974, and membership in the European Union.  

As this foundation is put into place, we will begin examining film representations of these historical events.  Initially, our discussion of these film texts will be focused on questions of historiography and historical accuracy.  From there, we will branch out to examine both the process by which film texts create an aura of historical authenticity and the way that film texts function as historically situated events themselves: as events, in other words, that reflect and shape specific political, social, and historiographical moments.  In the process, we will also address broader questions, such as the relationship of film to history and the nature of historical representation. 

This course carries COLL (CASE) Global Civilizations and Cultures Credit and Social and Historical Studies (S & H) Breath of Inquiry Credit.

Social Work Elective fall '14

I wanted to let you know about an social work elective called Substance Abuse and Social Services that I developed and have taught at IUB for many years. The course is geared towards those who are interested in going into helping professionals. In addition to my my position at IU I am also a clinical addiction therapist, providing substance abuse counseling to individuals, couples, groups and families for over 20 years. The course is well received  and I would be happy to provide referrals from former students. Also Ms. Mary Lou Kennedy Hosek (mhosek@indiana.edu) currently senior academic advisor for political science would be would be happy to provide a recommendation as she has had many of her students take my class.

 

Below is a course overview:

The purpose of this course is to give students an overview of the field of addiction (alcohol & drugs) including discussion of several conceptual models and theories. The course focuses on self-help groups, assessment procedures, and current intervention strategies. Students are given an opportunity to explore special issues in the field among oppressed minorities and  their findings with other students. Emphasis will also be placed on introducing students to the particular culture and ideologies that contribute to the provision of services in the field of addictions.  A brief overview on other addictions (gambling, sex, food) will be presented

IU Center for Art and Design Workshops for Fall 2014

The Indiana University Center for Art and Design is offering a series of 1 credit workshops this fall.  The attached flyer provides descriptions of the workshops and additional information about the series as a whole.  Please share this information with students you think might be interested.

In the words of Prof. Kevin Lair, who will be teaching the courses: “IUCA+D has been given the mission from President McRobbie to collaborate with programs across campus and to foster design education the broadest sense possible.”  You can find more information about IUCA+D on their website here: http://design.iub.edu/iucadc/.

Individualized Major Program to begin offering minors for Fall 2014

The Individualized Major Program is excited to announce that starting in fall 2014 it will accept applications for individualized minors.  We’ll entertain proposals for minors that arise from students’ interest in Themester or colloquia offered through IU’s centers and institutes, or that concern any subject not represented among IU’s standard minor offerings.

 

The minor is like others offered through the College in that it consists of 15 hours with a minimum of nine at the 300-400 level.  It’s different from some minors in that it includes courses from various departments (in fact, no more than two courses from a single department can count).  Also, we’ve included special regulations to ensure the minors’ integrity: For example, no more than two courses for the minor can be completed or in progress at the time the student applies.

 

Students pursuing IMP minors are not required to have faculty sponsors or to interview for admission to the IMP.  The minor application includes a brief essay in which the student distinguishes the proposed minor from others available at IU and articulates the principle of its coherence.  Applications will be reviewed by a committee of three faculty members; subsequent changes require the approval of the IMP director.

For more information, contact IMP:

Office Hours: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday-Friday

New GenEd N&M for Fall: ANTH-A 107 Becoming Human...

ANTH-A 107 Becoming Human: Evolving Genes, Bodies, Behavior, Ideas

 

What makes us human?

 

The human story is revealed not only in our ideas and cultural behaviors, but also in our bodies and our genes.  This class will introduce you to the scientific quest for human origins. We can make inferences about human evolution by comparing ourselves to our close living relatives (primates), but we can only really know how we became the unique species we are today by looking at ancient evidence, and tracing our bio-cultural evolution deep into prehistoric times.

 

Ultimately our goal is to help you appreciate how a knowledge of the deep human past is relevant to your own life, whether as a student at IU today, or as a future parent, medical patient, consumer, or IT professional.

 

Lectures will include digital media presentations and discussions using interactive student response systems (clickers) to model problem-solving and help students understand difficult concepts. 

Weekly labs and discussions will give students the chance to study different types of evidence for themselves (e.g., casts of fossils,

artifacts) and to learn about the strengths and weaknesses of each approach to interpreting our past.  Grades will be based on lecture participation, weekly take-home quizzes (administered online), weekly lab exercises, and three short essay assignments / projects.

Interns needed for two professional projects in Bloomington

This summer I am collaborating with a professional production company in Bloomington, Brave New Productions, on two very exciting projects. We would like the following memo, along with the respective pictures pasted below, to be forwarded to CMCL students in order to generate interest in Brave New's internships:

 

JUST CALL ME JACK is an independent feature film to be shot in Bloomington on May 19-24 and 26-31. It is a one-location musical chamber drama produced by Brave New Productions. Indiana University students remaining in Bloomington through May can now apply for a production internship to work on set for all or some days under the wing of professional filmmakers. For more information, go to www.justcallmejackmovie.com

 

The OLD NORTHWEST FILM FESTIVAL is an event in Bloomington also coordinated by Brave New Productions, scheduled for Saturday, July 26th. The festival will screen work from all across the Midwest in categories designated for high school, college, and professional filmmakers. Screenings will include the debut of Bloomington feature film GOBINON and the first trailer for JUST CALL ME JACK. Indiana University students in Bloomington on and around July 26th can now apply for an internship to help run the festival and network with industry professionals.

 

Anyone who is interested in both or either of these opportunities can send a resume of interest to bpnichol@indiana.edu

 

Regards,
