CHID Local/Global Internships in Seattle
(ASUW/UW Notices )
-- Posted 5/15/2012
NOT for COM credit.
Comparative History of Ideas Summer Program 2012
CHID 498 A, B, C
Local/Global Internships in Seattle
The CHID 2012 Local/Global Internships in Seattle provides a unique
opportunity for selected undergraduates to earn full-time, academic credit
while exploring the connections between global ideas and local work. Over an
8-week period, students will both work in local organizations with a
transnational focus and participate in seminars, which will provide a space
for reflection on how to incorporate theory into practice.
This is an accessible option, which fulfills the Cultural and Historical
Engagements CHID major requirement under the Local/Global Engagements course
description. This 12-credit program enables students to have a transnational
experience without leaving Seattle. As they build relationships within our
local community, students are encouraged to be self-reflexive of their own
local position/situation/context while thinking critically about their work
experience and exploring the links between local and global systems. In
these internships, students will trace local and global intersections in
areas such as transnational identity politics, human rights, immigration,
indigenous issues, legal rights, and violence.
For more info and/or add codes, contact Cynthia at chid@uw.edu.

Chinese Political Communication: A New Research Frontier
China Studies Program, East Asia Center
Thursday May 17, 2012
3:30 PM
Thomson Hall 317
Ashley Esarey, Whitman College
For more information, please email jonatb@uw.edu
The Chinese Communist Party has utilized mass media as conduits for regime propaganda since the founding of the People’s Republic. Yet media commercialization and the popularization of the Internet have dramatically altered media operations and news content in the Reform Period (1978-present). State propaganda has been ‘repackaged’ to increase its appeal with mass audiences, while millions of Chinese ‘netizens’ (wangmin) express dissent via blogs and microblogs (weibo), and participate in online and offline activism. The interaction between media and politics thus provides an excellent window for observing power relations in Chinese society. Despite the ongoing transformation of political communication in China, researchers have only recently begun to focus on the effects of media on public opinion, social movements, and support for Communist Party rule. In his talk, Jackson School Visiting Scholar Ashley Esarey, surveys scholarship on the interconnections between !
Chinese media and political life and identifies promising areas of current and future research.
Ashley Esarey received his Ph.D. in Political Science from Columbia University and has held the An Wang Postdoctoral Fellowship at Harvard’s Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies. He teaches Asian politics at Whitman College, serves as Associate in Research at Harvard University's Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies, and is a Visiting Scholar at the University of Washington’s Jackson School of International Studies, China Program. Dr. Esarey has published in Asian Survey, Asian Perspective, and the International Journal of Communication, testified at the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission and Congressional Executive Commission on China, and addressed the Council on Foreign Relations and National Committee on US-China Relations. His current research concerns media effects, perceptions of propaganda, information control, and state-society relations in the People’s Republic.

Luce Scholars Program information session Tuesday - to professional experience in Asia
(Scholarship )
-- Posted 5/14/2012
This program funds students and recent graduates to spend a year gaining professional experience in Asia, and especially targets those who have had little or no previous experience in Asia or Asian Studies.
Juniors, seniors, recent alums, graduate and professional students at UW are
encouraged to apply for the Luce Scholars Program
(http://www.hluce.org/lsprogram.aspx). This is great opportunity for those
with little or no prior experience in, or education about, Asian countries
to add this valuable perspective to their future career interests!
The UW is able to nominate 3 students per year to compete nationally for the
opportunity to spend 12 months in Asia. The program provides stipends,
language training and individualized professional placement in Asia for
fifteen to eighteen young Americans each year.
During the current application cycle for the 2013-14 program, applicants
must be American citizens who, by July 1, 2013, will have received at least
a bachelor's degree and will not have reached their 30th birthday.
Applicants should have a record of high achievement, outstanding leadership
ability, and a clearly defined career interest with evidence of potential
for professional accomplishment. Those who already have significant
experience in Asia or Asian studies are not eligible for the Luce Scholars
Program. Additional details are provided in the Program Summary below.
Information sessions covering the program basics, application and nomination
process will be held:
* Tuesday, May 15, 3:30pm, Savery Hall 156
* Wednesday, June 27, 4:30pm, Mary Gates Hall 171
Please RSVP to attend at https://expo.uw.edu/expo/rsvp/event/234.
Campus application deadline: Monday, Sept. 10, 2012

Program Summary:
The Luce Scholars Program represents a major effort by the Henry Luce
Foundation to provide an awareness of Asia among potential leaders in
American society. Launched in 1974, the Luce Scholars Program is aimed at a
group of highly qualified young Americans in a variety of professional
fields. It is unique among American-Asian exchanges in that it is intended
for young leaders who have had limited experience of Asia and who might not
otherwise have an opportunity in the normal course of their careers to come
to know Asia.
Luce Scholars have backgrounds in virtually any field other than Asian
studies, including but hardly limited to medicine and public health, the
arts, law, science, environmental studies, international development, and
journalism.
Placements can be made in the following countries or regions in East and
Southeast Asia: Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Laos,
Malaysia, Mongolia, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand,
and Vietnam.
In spite of its name, the Luce Scholars Program is experiential rather than
academic in nature. Some Scholars have been attached to Asian universities
in teaching or research capacities, but none of the participants is formally
enrolled as a student in a college or university and no academic credit is
extended. Past placements have included an architect?s atelier in Tokyo; a
public health program in Banda Aceh; a Gobi regional initiative in
Ulaanbaatar; a dance theatre in Kuala Lumpur; an agricultural and
environmental center in Hanoi; a human rights commission in Seoul; a
pediatric hospital in Bangkok; a TV network in Beijing; a national museum in
Siem Reap; an international arbitration centre in Singapore; and
English-language newspapers, local governmental agencies and NGOs in diverse
fields throughout East and Southeast Asia.
Professional placements are arranged for each Scholar on the basis of his or
her individual interest, background, qualifications, and experience. Each
Scholar spends July and August studying the language of the placement
country, and the work assignments run for approximately ten months from
September until July of the following year. The placements are intended
primarily as learning opportunities for the Scholars. Certainly it is hoped
that a Scholar will be able to make a professional contribution to the host
organization, but equally important is a willingness to learn some of the
many things that Asia has to teach.
2010 UW graduate Jesse Burk-Rafel was selected as a Luce Scholar in 2010 and
spent 2010-2011 in Mongolia under the program. Read the UW News article
about Jesse at http://www.washington.edu/news/archive/56129.

Britt Carmichael (‘97) is a Paralegal in the Anti-Piracy division of
Microsoft’s Legal & Corporate Affairs Group, where she works on a team
that enforces Microsoft’s copyrights and trademarks within the computer
and software marketplace. Through a test purchasing program, she makes
sure that when a computer is sold with Microsoft software it also includes
the proper licensing components. Britt started out interning in radio,
television and print before finally choosing to work in TV. She spent a
quarter in the Yakima market with Erin Mayovsky (alum and sideline
reporter for the Sounders) and Rob Piercy (also an alum and now working as
an anchor at NWCN and KING 5). Britt spent nearly four years working at
NWCN and KING 5 herself, as a production assistant, news writer and
associate producer before leaving television news to work in episodic
television. Her work in prime time television took her north to
Vancouver, BC and then south to Los Angeles, CA where she ended up in a
job at Warner Bros. where she researched the right to use art and other
copyrighted material in television and film. She enjoyed that work enough
to return to UW to earn her certificate in Paralegal Studies and land a
job at Perkins Coie where she had the chance to work as a vendor for
Microsoft. She eventually made the move to Microsoft in 2008 and has been
there since. Britt grew up in Bellevue, played lacrosse for UW, wrote
sports for The Daily, and is an alumna of Kappa Delta.

We will introduce some basic Javascript, mostly via jquery modules, and will use the HTML 5 syntax to include visual and audio clips.
The course assumes some familiarity with HTML and the web. If you have ANY idea what the previous paragraph is talking about, you will be ok. If not, the course will be a scramble to catch up. The prerequisite can be waived for the self-taught and for other compelling cases. (contact dillon@uw.edu).

Printing Revolution course thru' French dept. - for COM credit
(Dept Announcements )
-- Posted 5/7/2012
We will give COM elective credits for this.
AUTUMN 2012 Course: FRENCH 224/JSIS A 224 (5 credits; I&S/VLPA)
Culture and Media (SLN 14201; 15614)
The First New Media: The “Printing Revolution”
and its Cultural, Social, and Political Impacts
Prof. Geoffrey Turnovsky
MW 10:30-11:50 (with quiz sections on Fridays) CMU120
An 1894 story in Scribner’s prophesied the “end of books” and their replacement by
“phonography.” If the prediction seems outlandish today, the sentiment that books are becoming obsolete has only gotten stronger. Yet before being threatened with extinction by “new media,” print was new media. Its appearance in 15th-century Europe transformed society in ways equivalent to how digital media is changing our world today.
This course introduces students to the “Printing Revolution,” and its impacts
on politics, society and culture in France and Europe. Topics include:
* The technology of the printing press
* Politics of the press: censorship,
intellectual freedom, and public opinion
* Intellectual property, and evolving ideals
of authorship and originality
* The effects of growing literacy and new
reading habits on society
The concepts forged in the age of print continue to shape our interactions with media today, even as the “old” forms adapt to technological change -- think of how we use terms like “book” and “pages” to organize information in the virtual world. Using a mix of primary and secondary texts from the middle ages to now, and with visits to Special Collections in Suzzallo, we’ll contemplate how familiar notions like the book, the author, originality, freedom of the press, copyright, literacy, etc., first took shape, and how they orient us in the new media environment.
For more information, contact Geoffrey Turnovsky (gt2@uw.edu)

Videographer and Editor for National TV program
(Job )
-- Posted 5/7/2012
Local Startup needs video for a National TV program
FoundIt!, a Seattle-based lost and found identification service, has been contacted by “Shark Tank”. They’d like us to put together a video about our company to show their senior producers. These videos are often the base footage for the introduction of each company. This piece can be a great resume builder and also national exposure that you can showcase in your portfolio.
The video needs to be less than 5 minutes. FoundIt! will write the script, but we’re looking for help shooting it professionally and editing the final digital piece. We’re open to your ideas and expertise.
This is a paid project, but since we are a startup, we can only offer $200 to get it done. But you are getting paid to make a great resume piece. Not bad.
We are on a tight schedule and would like to get started ASAP. Please contact me at 206.953.6863 or Katie@foundit.net and send me a link of some of the stuff you’ve already done!
Looking forward to working with you!

- foQus, Delta Lambda Phi, Gay City, Queer Student Commision Advocate
"Masculinity, is a --homosocial experience, performed
for, and judged by,
other men.- The success of the performance comes down to --the single cardinal
rule of manhood, the one from which all the other characteristics - wealth,
power, status, strength, physicality - are derived. -That is, to demonstrate,
constantly and repeatedly, that you-re not gay" (Kimmel, 2009).
The above quote zooms in on the heterosexism and sexism inherent within
dominant US culture. The Q Center sees a need to disrupt these processes
because the effects within gay, queer men and women, and trans* communities,
can be damaging to interpersonal relationships, community building,
self-esteem, and health and well being.

video internship - UW Grad School
(Internship )
-- Posted 5/3/2012
Looking for the next Wes Anderson or Tina Fey
UW Graduate School needs a video intern – it could be you!
So, it won’t be as quite as exciting as interviewing Snooki on the red carpet or being embedded with an Army unit in Afghanistan. But working as a video intern in the UW Graduate School means you will get to interview UW researchers working on robots and stem cells and graduate students who study urban ecology and create software that will save the planet.
You will get to play with a really cool DSLR and audio equipment and use it to gather and create video content. You will learn how to edit – or expand your already awesome editing skills – and, best of all, build your portfolio, make great contacts and tell the world how important graduate degrees are.
Your video projects will include shooting and editing:
• Graduate student, faculty and alumni profiles.
• Instructional videos.
• Short features on graduate programs, research and projects.
• Interviews.
The ideal candidate is someone interested in a future career in communications, video production, journalism or web media.
What you have:
• Video and editing skills with Audacity and Adobe Premiere or Final Cut Pro – and the desire to expand them.
• Knowledge of the Adobe Creative Suite and still photography.
• Demonstrated writing ability and experience.
• A wicked sense of humor.
• Organizational skills and an obsession with meeting deadlines
• Experience using social media from Facebook to Pinterest to YouTube and beyond.
• High level of energy and passion for all things media.
What we offer:
• A video internship for summer and/or autumn 2012
• Credit (looks great on your transcript!) or a small stipend (enough to buy a few pizzas and your next tat!)
• A great learning experience.
• The chance to build your portfolio.
• A reference for when you go out into the real world.
• The opportunity to share your vast knowledge of pop culture with older colleagues who are trying to relate to today’s students.
Submit resume and three examples of your work (links are preferred) to Elizabeth Lowry, UW Graduate School communications director, (elowry@uw.edu). We will start our review for summer quarter on May 15. Questions? Just ask!

coasts, repeal Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, and increase food safety standards to
make school lunches safer - all while building valuable leadership skills.
Currently, we have paid positions open on our campaign staff in each of our
locations. We require that interested candidates are hard workers and have
excellent communication skills.
As a member of our staff, you will fundraise, build membership for our
partner groups and educate and activate citizens on pressing issues. You

coalitions with other non-profit organizations. While on staff, you gain
knowledge of pressing concerns our country is facing, learn how to
effectively generate public support, and obtain a firm understanding of the
political process.
We will be holding information sessions and interviews at University of
Washington Monday May 7th and Tuesday May 8th at 10 a.m., 2 p.m., 4 p.m. and
6 p.m. each day. All sessions will be held in Condon Hall, rm. 223D. To

shoes, jewelry and handbags ... what we need is YOU!

time to help a Highline student in need enjoy their prom!

Here is the information on the contest:
About this contest
Welcome to the second annual Matching Donors competition! Last year s contest
was a tremendous success with an amazing array of videos promoting the
altruistic organ donation through MatchingDonors.com. The winning Zooppa
video has even been broadcast on national television and its creator, Rob
Micai, has gone on to land new work because of because of his submission.
Here is your second opportunity to earn a little cash, work alongside
prestigious Hollywood professionals, and, most importantly, help save a
life!
Everybody Can Save A Life! is a video contest to raise awareness about being
a living organ donor on MatchingDonors.com. Nineteen people die every day in
the United States waiting for a kidney transplant. The team at
MatchingDonors.com is working hard to make sure that doesn t happen.
MatchingDonors.com is a 501c3 non-profit and the world s largest online living
organ donor non-profit organization. Learn more about MatchingDonors at
www.MatchingDonors.com
Your mission
Make a 30-second video that promotes, celebrates, and/or teaches about being
a living organ donor on MatchingDonors.com. Your video must prominently
feature both of the two following phrases in order to be considered:
* Everybody can Save a Life by being a living organ donor on
MatchingDonors.com
* Nineteen people die every day waiting for an organ transplant
Other than that requirement, the creative approach you take on your video is
up to you!
A serious approach could be to document the life of a transplant recipient
and what altruistic organ donation means to them and their loved ones.
A funny approach could highlight the lighter side of living organ donation.
For instance, what slapstick hijinks could happen if a well-meaning but
clumsy person was in charge of delivering the organ No matter the obstacle,
could the organ still find its way to the recipient
While the creative direction your choice, be mindful that these video will
be used as Public Service Announcements (PSAs) to promote
MatchingDonors.com, so they should represent the process of organ donation
