Adjournment University of Colorado Fall 2005 Retreat Report Burns told the Scholars that President Hoffman would not be able to attend the retreat as planned because she needed to stay in Denver to address concerns among legislators about a call from one legislator for her to resign. (Hoffman announced her resignation the following Monday.) The Scholars briefly discussed issuing a statement in support of Hoffman and agreed to give each Scholar an opportunity to add his or her name to such a statement in the next week.
President's Teaching Scholars Program Teaching Scholars Describe Other Extensions of Learning civil disobedience along with other American Indians who were blocking the columbus day parade. http://www.colorado.edu/ptsp/retreatfall00/ooc.html
Extractions: Fall 2000 Retreat Report Panel: Mike Cummings, Bob Averbach, Don Kleier, Jim Symons Mike Cummings told the group that Glen Morris, who was supposed to be on the panel, was arrested in an act of civil disobedience along with other American Indians who were blocking the Columbus day parade. The agreement that there would be an Italian pride march and no mention of Columbus and consequently no protest, broke down. Glen believes in freedom of speech but doesn't believe the city of Denver should sponsor this parade. In Denver, groups can have parades without a permit if they walk on the sidewalk. The American Indian movement believes that the actual granting of a permit to have a parade (which sets aside a certain part of Denver, disrupts transit, etc.,) isn't a right but a privilege. Is it appropriate for the city of Denver to grant this privilege to this group, considering American Indians' objections to Columbus? Mike then went on to introduce the topic of the panel. He has an end-of- semester weekend retreat for two of his graduate school classes. That inspired him to suggest that the President's Teaching Scholars have a conversation about out-of-classroom extensions of teaching.

Why Columbus Offers The Best History Lesson 2004 by the Minneapolis StarTribune. Why columbus Offers the Best History Lesson. by Warren Goldstein For me, columbus meant a three-day weekend. http://www.commondreams.org/views04/1011-23.htm
Extractions: Printer Friendly Version E-Mail This Article Published on Monday, October 11, 2004 by the Minneapolis Star-Tribune Why Columbus Offers the Best History Lesson by Warren Goldstein Although I studied to be an American historian for a decade, it never occurred to me that one of the most important things I'd ever do in a classroom would be to teach about Christopher Columbus. For me, Columbus meant a three-day weekend. But the unorthodox text I'd assigned in an introductory U.S. history course some years ago, Howard Zinn's " A People's History of the United States " since made famous by Matt Damon in the movie "Good Will Hunting" starts with Columbus, so I gave it a whirl. Here's how Zinn begins: "Arawak men and women, naked, tawny, and full of wonder, emerged from their villages onto the island's beaches and swam out to get a closer look at the strange big boat." Aside from its literary quality, the hint of Eden, and guesswork about the natives' state of mind, the passage asks us to look at the "discovery" upside-down: from the point of view of the people being "discovered." Zinn tells the now familiar story of violence and mayhem and greed, how Columbus seized land and prisoners, embarked on a futile, relentless search for gold, finally, when that failed, took slaves.

Extractions: The Dream Machine - The Imagination of the World Wide Web This story is over 500 years old, and as up to the minute as tomorrow. Next Columbus day add another year, change a few details, and it will still be fresh. On October 12, Mexico and the U. S. of A. pause in memory of the great sea captain Christopher Columbus (or Cristobal Colon, or Cristofo Colombo, or whomever), who quite by accident, while hopelessly lost, and just in time to save him from a mutinous crew, landed starving and sick somewhere off the coast of Yucatan. How you commemorate the event, depends on whether you identify yourself as a descendent of the perplexed and generous natives who aided him, or as an inheritor of the barbarous hoards that followed in his wake. In Mexico, Columbus Day is a school holiday. While banks, government offices and businesses are open as usual, students and teachers use the opportunity to express their continuing opposition to a government which they believe denies them money for supplies and salaries, intellectual freedom, and in the case of one hundred thousand students recently denied admission to the Autonomous University of Mexico a place at the academic table. The "exclusados" (excluded ones) claim that they failed the entrance exam because unlike their more affluent fellows they could not afford to buy the answers. The University denies that any such black market exists.

Extractions: I sell contract and consulting services for a living. For those who may be interested in joint projects or contracting, refer to my resume and statement of capability. Since I am on the task of fixing up old work, I offer the revised PDF document about Euler's disk . This is an expanded version of the older HTML files, but has better graphics and a complete explanation of how Euler's equations become a simple set of differential equations displaying a finite time singularity. I am back once again, and offer you a revised document about steady-state tornado vortex models as a pdf file. I have also added a link on the appropriately modified HTML page in the sequence of pages on Tornadoes. . I hope to make this the first in a series of files exploring mathematical models on this topic. I have placed the essense of a talk I gave, about viewing data as evidence, at the LCCC Star Club meeting on November 20, 2003, on this web site as a power point file.
Teaching About Native American Religions On Teaching Native American Religions Response to Ron Grimes questions to three electronic It was columbus day, 1993, or so I choose to remember it, http://puffin.creighton.edu/lakota/teaching.html
Extractions: The following is a series of discussions concerning the teaching of Indian religions outside of their own cultural context. Ron Grimes has also published an article on this topic in The American Indian Quarterly , Volume 20, Number 3 (1996), pages 433-450. The title of the article is: This May Be a Feud, But It Is Not a War: An Electronic, Interdisciplinary Dialogue on Teaching Native Religions From: Ron Grimes, U Colorado Boulder (at the time) I am submitting this query simultaneously to two electronic discussion groupsone on religious studies, the other on Native American issuesto invite reflection on three questions: 1. Should or should not European Americans be teaching courses on Native American religions? 2. If we should not, why not, and what would be the results of our deferral? 3. If we should, how best can we proceed? I am giving much thought these days to the question of cultural imperialism, especially in two of its forms, namely, religious and academic imperialism. While on leave, I have been asked by the Department of Religious Studies at the University of Colorado, Boulder, to teach a very large, publicly visible introductory course on Native American religions. Vine Deloria teaches here. So does Sam Gill. So does Ward Churchill. So does Deward Walker. Even without David Carrasco, soon on his way to Princeton, this is an sizeable concentration of authorities, of various sorts, on indigenous cultures, politics, law, and religions. Ordinarily, I teach courses on indigenous religions at Wilfrid Laurier, a small Canadian university where I can do what I do in relative obscurity, that is, at considerable remove from indigenous populations of the American Southwest, where I do most of my field work, and at a considerable remove from high-profile scholars whose names are regularly associated with Native American studies.
