Chemistry 590B: Science and Law, SLN 11836
Syllabus for Winter 2010
Lecture Thursday, 530-720pm, Bagley 154
Adjunct Prof. Karl Hermanns
This course provides an overview of intellectual property (IP); namely,
patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets. As traditional
industries are being supplanted with knowledge-based companies, ones in
which ideas and innovation have assumed an ever increasing role in a
competitive business environment, intellectual property has emerged as a
powerful tool in this new economy. Particularly in the field of patent law,
companies are increasingly using intellectual property protection as
competitive weapons to both capture and defend markets, as well as to
increase reviews. This course will address the various forms of intellectual
property protection available to technology-based companies, with real world
and current examples from a practicing patent attorney. The course
instructor, Karl Hermanns, is a chemist-turned-lawyer with the Seattle law
firm of Seed IP Law Group, as well as an adjunct professor at the University
of Washington School of Law.
Textbook - none.
Grading - Credit/no credit. You will need to complete a written assignment
to receive credit.

English Spring in Rome -- application deadline extended
(Study Abroad )
Study in Rome this Spring with the English Department!
I have good news for those of you who may have missed our earlier
application deadline - we are still accepting applications for the
Spring in Rome program and the deadline has been extended to Monday,
November 30th!
Please see below (or the attached brochure) for more information.

http://depts.washington.edu/engl/abroad/Rome2010brochure.pdf
Application Deadline: November 30, 2009
How to apply:
All current UW students are eligible to apply and no prior knowledge of
Italian is required! Please submit a Letter of Interest, along with
names and contact information for two academic references, by email, to

** Please also print the English Department Study Abroad Application
form and turn it in to Bridget Norquist in English Advising, room A2B
Padelford Hall, by November 30th **
http://depts.washington.edu/engl/abroad/english_study_abroad_application.pdf
Program Description:
JOIN a band of ink-stained writer-adventurers for ten weeks of
concentrated exercise and conversation in and about the Eternal City.
This is Rome from a generalists's perspective: history and geography,
art and architecture, language and literature, the color and vagary and
flavor of daily life all constellate in the writer's notebook. Following
in the footsteps of those poets, painters, saints and soldiers who for
some two and a half millenia have traveled where all roads lead, we'll
sack the city word by cobble, in conversation, practice, and stride.
Courses and Credits:
ENGL 430: Studies in Major Authors, D.H. Lawrence and Italy 5 credits
Professor Sydney Kaplan
Why did the impoverished son of a coal miner choose Italy as his escape
from the social constrictions of British society in the early
twentieth-century? How did his Italian sojourns influence his
controversial ideas on art, sexuality, and politics? The class will
pursue these and other questions as we read D.H. Lawrence?s writings
based on his experiences in Italy: Twilight in Italy, Sea and Sardinia,
and Etruscan Places, and also novels (Aaron?s Rod and The Lost Girl),
poems, and short stories. We will take advantage of the great
collection of Etruscan art at the Villa Giulia, and make excursions to
Cerveteri and Tarquinia to follow in Lawrence?s footsteps as he
discovered the significance of the ancient Etruscan civilization for
modern times. We also will consider Lawrence?s work in relation to the
artists and writers of Italian Futurism, taking advantage of the
magnificent collection of Futurist Art in the Galeria Nationale d?Arte
Moderna. Additionally, we will look at the very different reactions to
Italy of Lawrence's friend, E.M. Forster, in his novels Where Angels
Fear to Tread and A Room With a View. (This course meets the Senior
Capstone Requirement for English Literature majors)
ENGL 283/383/483 or 493: Sacking Rome 5 credits
Professor Richard Kenney
Rome from a writer?s perspective: what can we carry away? Notebooks in
hand, we?ll test that question in reading, writing, and conversation.
We?ll consider what it means to be an artist, walk the cobbles daily,
fill a writer?s sketchbook, and so in literary terms sack the city at
the center of the world.
ENGL 363: Literature and the Arts and Other Disciplines 5 credits
Professors Richard Kenney and Sydney Kaplan
Roam Rome with experts in its art, architecture, history, and culture.
Learn enough Italian to purchase a peach in the future tense. This
diverse course will involve guest speakers, field trips, and Italian
Language instruction.
All classes will be held in and around Rome, and at the University of
Washington Rome Center at the 17th century Palazzo Pio, situated in the
vibrant center of the city?s historical district.
Cost
Program fee: $4,400
Rome Center Fee: $2,200 (undergraduates), $3,200 graduate students)
Non-refundable IPE fee: $250
Total fees: $6,850 (undergraduates), $7,850 (graduate students)
The program fees include accommodation, tuition, facilities at the
Palazzo Pio, field trips, excursions, and most program-related admission
fees. It does not include airfare, board, health insurance, books, or
personal spending money.
Questions? Feel free to drop by the English Advising Office or send me
an email. I'm typically in the office on Mon, Tue, Wed, and Fri from
11-4 and on Thurs from 1-7. You are also welcome to contact the program
directors, Professor Richard Kenney (rk@uw.edu) and Professor Sydney
Kaplan (sydneyk@uw.edu) with questions.

The Washington Center in D.C. - Spring Semester Deadline Extended to December 4
(Intern :: Other )
We wanted to let you know that we intend to continue accepting applications
for our spring semester 2010 Washington, D.C. internship programs until
December 4, 2009. Of course, we've informed students that they need to
confirm with your institution's campus liaison or sponsor that they can
still participate, but we hope that you'll be able to send any newly
interested candidates our way.
Hopefully, this extension will allow students to discuss the opportunity
with their families during the Thanksgiving break and will take some of the
pressure off those who were scrambling to submit all of their materials on
time. Of course, we will offer admission on a rolling basis, so prospective
interns should send their applications as soon as possible.
Please note that unfortunately we're unable to extend our deadline for the
Washington, D.C.-Sydney Internship Program or the U.S.-China Bilateral Trade
Internship Program. In addition, we're no longer able to accept
international students enrolled in colleges and universities abroad due to
the J-1 Visa process.
Students can also consider participating in our January seminar Inside
Washington '10 (www.twc.edu/insidewashington), as the deadline is December
9. Faculty members who bring 10 students from their institution can be hired
as faculty leaders to come with their group to Washington, DC and will
receive a stipend. For more information on Inside Washington '10, please
contact seminars@twc.edu.
As always, we appreciate your support and are available whenever you have
questions or concerns!

Internet News Radio Program Looking for Proactive Students
My name is Matthew Petrillo and I am a sophomore broadcast journalism major
at Temple University in Philadelphia. I am writing in regards to an internet
news radio program that I am trying to launch.
I hope to provide student journalists with the credibility that we deserve
by producing Web Campus Radio News (WCR News), which will be an entirely
student-run web-based 20-minute 5-day-a-week news service that college radio
stations can download, for free, and then stream on its respective station.
Anyone will be able to download it for free from its Web site.
My objective is to round up student-journalists across the country and team
together to produce these daily newscasts. They would gain valuable
experience by creating these audio packages, which will strengthen their
reels, hone their reporting and writing skills, and provide students with a
large platform to perform their work.
I anticipate launching this program by next semester, after the new year,
and am seeking students who are capable of creating newsworthy audio
packages in accordance to the ethics of journalism.
Interested students should reply with an
e-mail (and possibly a pitch!) with the subject line, "WCR News" for more
specifics.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

The Journalism That Matters organizers have offered up to 15 no-fee
registrations for UW communication students. The conference begins Thursday
afternoon, January 7, in the ballroom of Haggett Hall, continues into the
evening, and runs the full day Friday and Saturday with a morning wrap-up on
the 10th. The department is a co-sponsor.
Since the program takes place the first week of next term, we need to submit
our list of students this month. Please tell your students about the event,
check out its website www.journalismthatmatters.org, and urge students to
contact me if they want to be considered for the free registrations.
Journalism That Matters' national series of action-oriented
discussions comes to Seattle this January. Join us for a productive weekend
re-imagining news and community in our region!
How can the press and the public help each other?
The DIGITAL AGE and a depressed economy have changed the landscape in which
journalism operates. Engage others who are actively involved in addressing
the vital question of how the press and community members can help each
other define and embrace our evolving Pacific NW news ecology. Our Seattle
program "catalysts" - Norman Rice, Tracy Record, and Chris Jordan - will be
part of the conversation joining other Pacific NW journalists, civic voices,
broadcasters, educators, ethnic media, students, emergent voices, digital
entrepreneurs and business people. Join others who are finding and
developing new information sources, economic solutions and accountability
models that work to create a revitalized journalism that matters.
Information booths available for interested registrants.
Questions and opportunities in a new era of journalism:
Given the state of the industry, WHAT?s possible now? WHO are the new
journalists? HOW are stories chosen? HOW are they told? WHAT kind of change
is productive? WHO can the public trust? WHAT is the role of journalism in
connecting people and community? WHERE can editors find qualified
contributors and information with increasingly diminished budgets? WHAT new
technological sources are reliable? WHERE is the new newsroom? WHEN are beat
blogs, twittering and social networks best utilized? WHY is transparency so
important? HOW do we maintain transparency and accountability while
protecting sources?

Freie Universit?t Berlin and the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) are
pleased to announce the third year of an intensive scholarship-supported
summer seminar/internship program in Berlin for American journalism and
communications students. We would be delighted and very grateful if you
could help us spread the word about this exciting new opportunity among your
students, faculty and fellow staff. The program is targeted primarily at
currently enrolled undergraduate students, but a limited number of
graduating Seniors, recent graduates and Master's students may be accepted
as well.
For the first six weeks of the program, participants will take part in a
seminar series to expand their academic understanding of the politics,
society and culture of Germany, and the country's current social conditions
and media scene. During the second week, students will go on excursions
within Germany together with journalism students from the Independent States
of the former Soviet Union. The final five weeks consist of an intensive
internship with a German newspaper, magazine, radio station or PR firm in or
near Berlin.
Applicants must have at least "advanced intermediate" German skills to take
part in the program, as the seminars and internships take place in the
German language. The 20 applicants who are finally selected for the program
will be awarded a monthly stipend of 650 Euros for the duration of their
stay in Germany. DAAD will also provide participants a partial travel
subsidy of 650-950 Euros (depending on US city of origin) towards the cost
of international transportation to Germany; travel costs not covered by the
partial subsidy must be paid by the individual program participants
themselves. DAAD will also provide health and accident insurance. There will
be a program fee of 140 Euros.
The application deadline is January 31, 2010. The 40 applicants who are
invited to a selection interview in New York City (in early March) will
receive up to $300 toward the cost of their flight to the interview
location.

Open Internship at Urban ArtWorks: Grant research position
Urban ArtWorks is a local non-profit that creates public art with art risk youth sent to us through the King County Court system. We rely on funding from foundations both private and public. To learn more about what we do visit www.urbanartworks.org
This position would be ideal for someone interested in art administration or fundraising and who has strong research and writing skills. Research will include seeking out grant opportunities, compiling a calendar of deadlines and contacts, and sometimes assisting in proof reading before the final grant is submitted. This could turn into a grant writing position, which is currently unpaid but a successful intern will be first to be considered when a paid position becomes available.
This position would require up to 5 hours per week. 4 hours dedicated to research and ideally a 1 hour weekly staff meeting. We are not in need of someone in our office, so the 4 hours of research or editing can be done remotely. Candidate must have regular access to a computer with internet and word processing. We can provide a computer here, but our internet and office hours are spotty, so we prefer someone with their own access.
Internship is available immediately and will be flexible during the Holidays. For more information, to send a resume or to come see our studio please contact
Kathleen Warren at 206.292.4142 or Kathleen@urbanartworks.org.
Our studio is located in the SODO area at 923 S. Bayview St, Suite C, Seattle WA 98134.

We are looking for students to participate in the 2010-2011 exchange program
with Sichuan University in China and would really appreciate your help in
forwarding this e-mail on to students or groups who might be interested.
The UW-Sichuan University Undergraduate Exchange Program is a unique chance for
UW students to not only live and study in China but to engage in a hands-on,
self-directed research project overseas. The two or three quarter program
offers intensive Chinese language training, additional classes offered in
English and an amazing chance for students to research a topic of their own
choosing. Sichuan University's location in western China means that students
have the opportunity to travel and do research in places such as a national
park in the eastern Himalayas or remote minority villages in southern Sichuan.
The program is open to all majors and is a great opportunity to make huge gains
in Chinese language skills and to really engage with China.
/**We will be having an open information session with the Program Coordinator
and the 2008-09 program alum on November 18, 7:00 pm in HUB 209B.** /
For more information please check out our Facebook group ?UW-Sichuan
Undergraduate Exchange Program? or our website:
http://depts.washington.edu/uwww/UEP/overview.php
Application Deadline for this program is February 5, 2010 for the 2010/2011
academic year.

"The One Who Is Not Busy": An evening symposium sponsored by the UW Information School
(Presentations&Meetings )
The One Who Is Not Busy:
Living and Working Calmly and Effectively
in an Accelerating, Information-Saturated World
November 12, 2009, 7 p.m. - 9 p.m.
University of Washington
Johnson Hall Room 102
Presenters
Darlene Cohen (Zen teacher and author of The One Who Is Not Busy)
Alfred W. Kaszniak (Professor of Psychology, Neurology, & Psychiatry, U. Arizona)
David M. Levy (Professor, University of Washington Information School)
Description
While the new information technologies are extraordinarily powerful
tools for communication and for information access, it is increasingly
evident that their use is also contributing to the rushed, fragmented,
and distracted character of contemporary life. This evening symposium
will provide an overview of some of the work now being done at the
Information School to understand the causes of these conditions and to
develop helpful responses and potential solutions.
David Levy will provide an overview of the work currently being done
in the iSchool (in collaboration with Darlene Cohen, Al Kaszniak, and
others) which is investigating how to restore "contemplative balance"
to our overly rushed and busy days. Darlene Cohen, a Bay Area Zen
teacher, will describe how training the attention through meditation
can improve people's ability to stay focused on task and thus
remain "not busy" even while being productively engaged; she will also
lead attendees in an attention-training exercise. Al Kaszniak will
discuss some of the recent findings from neuroscience about the place
of meditation and other contemplative practices.
This event is free and open to the public. To register for this event,

For juniors with financial need who are interested in going to graduate school in arts, humanities or social science fields. The Beinecke Scholarship provides $34,000 to juniors with exceptional academic achievement, who are US citizens, or US nationals from American Samoa or the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and have documented financial need.
The UW is able to nominate one student per year to compete for this national
award. To be considered for the campus nomination, students should complete
a campus application, which will be available shortly from our websiteat http://www.washington.edu/students/ugrad/scholar/scholarships/s/beinecke
------
Are you a junior interested in pursuing graduate study in the arts,
humanities, or social sciences? If so, you may be eligible to apply for the
Beinecke Scholarship (http://foundationcenter.org/grantmaker/beinecke/).
This scholarship provides $34,000 for graduate study to juniors of
exceptional ability and achievement. The UW is allowed to nominate one
student per year to compete for this national award.
To be eligible for this scholarship, a student must:
* Have demonstrated superior standards of intellectual ability, scholastic
achievement and personal promise during his or her undergraduate career.
* Be a college junior pursuing a bachelor's degree during the 2009-2010
academic year. "Junior" means a student who plans to continue full-time
undergraduate study and who expects to receive a baccalaureate degree
between December 2010 and August 2011.
* Plan to enter a master's or doctoral program in the arts, humanities or
social sciences. Students in the social sciences who plan to pursue
graduate study in neuroscience should not apply for a Beinecke
Scholarship.
* Be a United States citizen or a United States national from American
Samoa or the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands.
* Have a documented history of receiving need-based financial aid during
his or her undergraduate years. Primary evidence of meeting this
criterion is a student's history of receiving need-based institutional,
state or federal grants-in-aid. An institutional financial aid officer
will be required to complete a Financial Data Sheet certifying that the
student meets this criterion. In the selection process, the amount of
financial need will not be a major determining factor, nevertheless,
preference is given to candidates for whom the awarding of a scholarship
would significantly increase the likelihood of the student's being able
to attend graduate school.
To learn more about this opportunity and the campus application process,
please attend a Beinecke Scholarship Information Session in 120 MGH:
* November 17, 2009 from 12:30pm to 1:20pm

Community Literacy Program for Winter 2010
(Other )
COMMUNITY LITERACY PROGRAM: Are you a UW student interested in helping public school students succeed? Getting real world experience to help you choose a major or a career path? Completing classroom hours for the Education, Learning and Society Minor or for application to a Masters in Teaching program? Improving your research, writing, and collaborative learning and presentation skills? Are you looking for an opportunity (in the words of Paul Farmer) to "use what you learn to transform yourself and your community"? If you answered yes to any of these questions, the Community Literacy Program may be just what you're looking for.
HOW THE COMMUNITY LITERACY PROGRAM WORKS: Community Literacy Program (CLP) is an 8 credit program linking English 298A and Education 401C. In English 298 you'll meet on campus MW 10:30-12:20 in a writing-intensive seminar focused on learning effective methods of working with public school students in language arts, exploring some central challenges and opportunities for public education, and using writing to inquire into, develop and communicate your thinking about these issues. This seminar will be taught by CLP Director Elizabeth Simmons-O'Neill in collaboration with College of Education secondary language arts faculty. In EDUC 401, you'll put what you learn on campus into action, volunteering (4-5 hours a week, on a schedule you arrange) at one of our partner public schools in Seattle or Shoreline: Olympic Hills Elementary, Garfield High School or Shorecrest High School. Community Literacy Program is among the longest-running community-based programs at UW, and is a partner in the Phoenix Project, a new initiative to both prepare future language arts teachers and support P-12 language arts students.
REGISTRATION INFORMATION: To sign up for the Community Literacy Program,
contact the Director, Dr. Elizabeth Simmons-O'Neill (esoneill@u.washington.edu, 685-3804) for an add code. Once you are registered in Education 401C, you will be able to register for the required linked course, English 298A. English 298 can be used toward either the UW's 10-credit "W" requirement or the 5 credit "Composition" requirement.
QUESTIONS? Additional information is available at the program web site:

Several times a year, Jim McDermott offers unpaid internship
opportunities in his Washington D.C. and Seattle offices to young
people who are interested in seeing first-hand how our government works.
An internship in Washington, D.C. provides an opportunity to work with
a congressional staff, attend committee hearings and markups, observe
the House in session, and learn about the daily operations of
Congress, while enhancing an understanding of the legislative process
and national issues. An internship in Seattle provides an opportunity
to attend constituent meetings, learn about the legislative process,
participate in constituent services, and experience the daily
operations of a congressional district office.
Because we receive more applications than the number of available
positions, we encourage applicants to submit their information as
early as possible. This allows either office the time to properly
review applications and also affords time for those seeking a position
in Washington DC to make the necessary housing and travel arrangements.
Applicants must be an undergraduate or graduate college student who
has completed at least one year of college and should posses an
interest in the legislative process and in helping constituents, as
well as strong writing and communication skills.
If an applicant will be participating in a formal program directed by
their school, we ask that they indicate what specific requirements the
program would make of the office. If their school does not offer a
formal intern program, they may wish to speak to an advisor about the
possibility of receiving independent study credit for the internship.
If you would like to be considered for a position, please submit to
the appropriate office the following information as a complete packet:
1. Cover letter explaining your interest,
2. A current resume
3. Letters of reference
4. The Year and school term or the dates you are be available.

Lead a service project for the Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service
(ASUW/UW Notices )
On Monday, January 18, 2010, the Carlson Center and United Way of King
County will be coordinating the 9th Annual MLK Jr. Day of Service. Last year
over 1,300 UW students, staff, faculty, alumni, friends, and family served
at projects around King County ranging from cleaning, painting, and
beautifying transitional housing facilities, clearing invasive plant growth
in Seattle's natural habitats, clearing trash from neighborhood parks, or
sorting donated food and clothing, just to name a few.
As an MLK Day of Service project leader, you will be the vital communication
liaison between your project host, project volunteers and the Carlson
Leadership & Public Service Center. Project leaders choose from among a
variety of one-day service projects that have been organized by local
community partners to take place on January 18th. As a project leader, you
can recruit your own service team or open your project to meet new people.
The commitment is minimal and rewarded with leadership experience, stronger
relationships, and a demonstrated commitment to our community.
Project Leader trainings will take one hour and be offered from November 2nd
- November 10th in Mary Gates Hall.
