The Misconception Of College Life: How Popular Media Is Making It Worse, Jenna Bucher

Pop Culture Intersections

This article explores the misconceptions of the life of a college student and the daily struggles that get overlooked. Colleges provide support for the most prevalent cases of mental illness but disregard those who do not display these obvious signs. This focus on only those with extreme needs leaves the majority of students feeling lost and not knowing where to go for help; their feelings are not warranted and unless they are suicidal, it is not of a concern. I will argue that on top of the stresses of acclimating to college, daily work and social pressures, social media has …

In His Saintly Patience, John Henry Cardinal Newman Lifts Up The Church’S People, Michael W. Higgins

Mission & Culture Publications

This Oct. 13, John Henry Cardinal Newman will be made a saint. It’s about time.

A Victorian of immense productivity in a generation of prolific high-achievers, Newman is of special significance at this moment for two reasons: his championing of the role of the laity in Catholicism, and his penetrating insights into the nature of the university and the liberal arts.

禮莫大於聖王 : 論《荀子》對「禮」概念的擴充與轉化, Wai Yi Yau

Lingnan Theses (MPhil & PhD)

春秋戰國是社會大變革時期，諸子各派皆圍繞國家治亂問題展開論述，尤其是主張政治倫理化的儒家，其內在「倫理體系」與外在治國規範的「禮」有著密切關係。在整本《荀子》中，「禮」字出現342 次，涉及修身、資源分配、人事等多方面的意涵。相比《論語》、《孟子》主要以「仁」等倫理情感解釋「禮」，視「禮」為內在道德情感的外化表現，《荀子》則提倡「禮生於聖人之偽」，強調「心」能自主思慮抉擇，「禮」為外在理性產物，呈現有別於《論》、《孟》的一塘禮學思想。

本文將以《荀子》「禮」論為研究重心，並與《論語》、《孟子》有關「禮」的論述進行比對，探討《荀子》「禮」論與傳統儒家 (主要針對《孟子》) 的既定立場或看法有否差異之處？如有，會是何樣的差異？而這些差異的產生有否特定意義？本文將對此等疑問作一解答。

Introduction To Journalism, Barbara Nevins Taylor

Open Educational Resources

Despite attacks on reporters and news organizations by some political leaders, the right to practice journalism is embedded in the United States Constitution. The law of our land highlights the importance of honest reporting about government and those in power to ensure that they are accountable to the people.

The digital revolution transformed the way we consume and deliver news, but the important principles of reporting remain the same. Every day, we see that journalism comes in many forms and appears on every platform from traditional print newspapers and magazines, to online sites that offer broad content or specialize in …

Virtual Idol Hatsune Miku: Case Study Of New Production/Consumption Phenomena Generated By Network Effects In Japan’S Online Environment, Hajime Kobayashi, Takashi Taguchi

Markets, Globalization & Development Review

Using Hatsune Miku, a vocaloid or a Desktop Music (DTM) software using voice synthesizer technology, as a case study, this paper explores how consumer generated media (CGM) and user generated content (UGC) diffused in Japan – rapidly at first and then at an erratic and not-so-rapid pace. The creative environment ushered in by the vocaloid platform, it appears, represents a form of "managed creativity", and not a rosy future characterized by a participatory turn to a widespread democratization of creative activity.

Understanding The Politicization Of Oromo Identity In The Diaspora: Re/ Locating The Bones Of The Oromo, Madeline Jaye Bass

Dissertations and Theses

The Oromo people of Ethiopia share a common language, worldview, set of sacred meanings, and a historic system of governance. The rise of the Abyssinian Empire in the late 1800s led to the colonization of the Oromo; their language and religion were made illegal, their homeland was expropriated and renamed, and they were forced to live as slaves on their own land. After the end of the Abyssinian colonial era, historic discrimination was institutionalized into the new Ethiopian state form through the politicization of identities. Ethnic identities become political identities when cultural traits are used by the state as criteria …

Daoism, Flourishing, And Gene Editing, Richard Kim

Philosophy: Faculty Publications and Other Works

Given the potentially powerful effects of gene editing for human lives, it seems reasonable to reflect on the issue from a variety of scientific, moral, cultural, and religious perspectives to help us deploy this technology with a clear eye to all its possible implications. Given the global impact genetic modification will likely have, an inquiry seriously engaging with the values and ideals of non-Western cultures and societies will be helpful to achieve the sort of balanced understanding that will enable a proper evaluation. This chapter examines the account of well-being found in the Daoist classic, the Zhuangzi, and highlights some …
