You can JOIN THE LISTSERV HERE or read more about STRC and the skillshare series below. What will the skillshares be about? What can I propose? Skillshares can be anything that at least a small group of people want to do together. Co-facilitated workshops are very encouraged. Past peer led STRC workshops and skillshares are known for supporting scholar activist practices and projects, generating strategic and creative ways to navigate disciplinary and neoliberal professionalization pressures, and for cultivating a culture of mutual aid, constructive criticism, and non-competitive attention to each other’s work and ideas, within and against the academy. The upcoming series will very likely include some of the …
Coauthored by Professor Fred Moshary of City College Application of a broadly tunable SG-DBR QCL for multi-species trace gas spectroscopy in Optics Express Feasibility of using a mid-Infrared tunable sampled-grating distributed Bragg reflectors quantum cascade laser for high resolution multicomponent trace gas spectroscopy is demonstrated. By controlling the driving currents to the front and back sections of the laser, we were able to tune a pulsed 4.55 µm laser over a frequency range a of 30 cm−1 with high resolution, accuracy and repeatability. The laser was applied to absorption spectroscopy of ambient and reduced pressure (150 Torr) air in a …
The Graduate Center has partnered with a company named Interfolio to provide online dossier services. As is now common practice, student portfolios can be placed online in an Interfolio account and accessed 24/7. The student works directly with Interfolio to establish a portfolio that can include letters of recommendation, curriculum vitae, writing samples, dissertation abstracts, teaching certifications, student evaluations, and more. The Interfolio system accepts and stores almost any type of information. Interfolio is an excellent way to store and deliver materials to an academic search committee or for further study. Interfolio maintains robust technological safeguards to keep documents private …
Prof Sharon Zukin has first authored a new publication in the Journal of Consumer Culture. Check it out below! The omnivore’s neighborhood? Online restaurant reviews, race, and gentrification S Zukin, S Lindeman, L Hurson – Journal of Consumer Culture, 2015 Abstract Social media users who post restaurant reviews on the website Yelp.com act as both prosumers or produsers and ‘‘discursive investors’’ in gentrification. Their unpaid online reviews create cultural and financial value for individual restaurants and also construct a positive or negative image of their locations that may lead to economic investment. Moreover, Yelp reviewers show marked preferences in terms …
Professor Ruth Wilson Gilmore (Earth and Environmental Sciences/American Studies) has been selected from a competitive field of scholars as Purchase College-SUNY’s inaugural Eugene Grant Distinguished Scholar. The prize, created by Eugene and Emily Grant to promote academic excellence and student success, was granted in recognition of Gilmore’s innovative work on the environment. In the upcoming year, Gilmore’s research will inspire students in areas including environmental studies, sociology, visual arts, and new media to use water as a lens to investigate issues such as the price of food, medical conditions, housing quality, and land displacement. Her wide-ranging research interests include revolution …
