A Proposal For Composing Change At Colby: Improving Colby-Waterville Relations, Dagmar Dousma Apr 2015

A Proposal For Composing Change At Colby: Improving Colby-Waterville Relations, Dagmar Dousma

CLAS: Colby Liberal Arts Symposium

This project is part of a larger research project focused on an issue or problem that affects the Colby Community. I will present an overview of the problem and present a feasible solution. Colby's history tightly interweaves with the history of Waterville, yet currently the two communities appear mainly segregated. What causes lay at the root of this detachment, and how can we improve interaction? This research, which is by no means comprehensive, attempts to gain perspective into the developing understanding of the Colby-Waterville relation.

Beyond The Schoolhouse Door: Educating The Political Animal In Jefferson’S Little Republics, Brian W. Dotts Apr 2015

Beyond The Schoolhouse Door: Educating The Political Animal In Jefferson’S Little Republics, Brian W. Dotts

Democracy & Education

Jefferson believed that citizenship must exhibit republican virtue. While education was necessary in a republican polity, it alone was insufficient in sustaining a revolutionary civic spirit. This paper examines Jefferson's expectations for citizen virtue, specifically related to militia and jury service in his 'little republics.' Citizens required not only knowledge of history and republican principles, but also public spaces where they could personify what they learned. Jefferson often analogized the nation as a ship at sea, and while navigational instruments are necessary in charting an accurate course, i.e., republican theories, they become inconsequential without the decisive action required for their …


Clivus Composting Toilet Systems At Flag Staff Lake, Chi Do, Grace Baldwin Apr 2015

Clivus Composting Toilet Systems At Flag Staff Lake, Chi Do, Grace Baldwin

CLAS: Colby Liberal Arts Symposium

Clivus Multrum composting toilet systems have been used in homes, parks and commercial buildings as the sole method of treating toilet waste. The composting process is reliable, convenient and safe. Its results are both conservative and productive; water is saved from use as a carriage medium and the fertilizer content in excreta is made available for reuse. The Clivus composting toilet uses aerobic decomposition to slowly break down both urine and feces into stable compounds within the polyethylene composting unit. Our poster will outline the technology and economics behind a Clivus system as part of the course Joules to Dollars.

Poetry And Paintings: Luca Giordano's Three Depictions Of Hercules' Death, Kathleen Carroll Apr 2015

Poetry And Paintings: Luca Giordano's Three Depictions Of Hercules' Death, Kathleen Carroll

CLAS: Colby Liberal Arts Symposium

Hercules is one of the most commonly portrayed classical figures in modern culture, with a plethora of movies and television shows depicting his adventures; this popularity is not a modern fad, however, for representations of Hercules have been a constant throughout history. During his career, the Baroque artist Luca Giordano (1634-1705) produced three different versions of Hercules' demise: the Colby Museum of Art's "Hercules on the Funeral Pyre" (1665-1670), "Hercules on the Pyre" (1687-1700) currently in El Escorial, and the Prado Museum's "Hercules on the Pyre" (~1697). This project in progress focuses on the different ways Giordano portrays Hercules' destiny …


The Servant Of Two Masters: Lighting Design, Tyler Harley Apr 2015

The Servant Of Two Masters: Lighting Design, Tyler Harley

CLAS: Colby Liberal Arts Symposium

I served as the Lighting Designer for the Department of Theater and Dance spring semester production of The Servant of Two Masters. Work encompassed initial conceptual production research through final realized light design objectives in Strider Theater during performances on April 16-18. More specifically, research consisted of textual and visual analysis, computational understanding of the GIO lighting console, stage lighting equipment theory and functionality, color theory, and cueing analysis based on rehearsal outcomes. To translate research into a viable design, the following process elements were generated: Scene-by-Scene Light Score, Light Keys, Light Plot, Channel Hookup, Instrument Schedule, and Virtual Magic …

African-American Women And Social Networks: Changing The World Through Organizing, Sloan Cargill

CLAS: Colby Liberal Arts Symposium

In the mainstream historical narrative of American social justice movements and organizing, African-American women and their work have too often been marginalized and forgotten, despite the crucial work that they have done.This is a study of African-American Women's social networks and African-American women committed to social change. This study focuses on the lives and works of Mary Church Terrell, Josephine St. Pierre Ruffin, Mary McLeod Bethune, and Dorothy I. Height, and their respective work with the National Association of Colored Womens Club and National Council of Negro Women. While focused on these women and these organizations, the study also highlights …


African American Women In Greek Life, Jacqueline Tavella Apr 2015

African American Women In Greek Life, Jacqueline Tavella

CLAS: Colby Liberal Arts Symposium

For my research paper I would like to write about how African American Sororities originated. In looking at these sororities I would like to report on some of the women who founded these organizations, such as Ethel Hedgeman Lyke, who founded the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority at Howard University in 1908. I would also like to do research on Charles Robert Samuel Taylor, Pearl Neal, Myrtle Tyler, Viola Tyler, and Fannie Pettie who all played a role in founding Zeta Phi Beta at Howard University in 1920. This particular story is very interesting because it was initially a man who …

Irish Enough?, Jordan Marie Abbruzzese Apr 2015

Irish Enough?, Jordan Marie Abbruzzese

English Student Capstone Projects - Creative Writing

"Irish Enough?" is an essay collection that primarily describes my travels to Ireland. Before leaving America, I was overwhelmed with the prospect that I would be touring the country for eleven days, exploring where my great-grandparents came from, and essentially journeying to “the homeland” (as my family referred to it at a wedding, months later). Through the collection I explore not only what it is like to travel through Ireland as an outsider, but also the expectations and realities of being an American with Irish heritage “returning” to Ireland. The collection tackles questions, such as “Why does our society romanticize …
