This document discusses the relationship between art and social change. It examines whether works like Warhol's 200 One Dollar Bills or Duchamp's Fountain actually promote social change or merely serve the interests of the elite. It also discusses two protests - one in 1973 against an art auctioneer profiting from cab drivers, and another in 2011 when Occupy Wall Street protesters occupied museums to protest the commercialization of art. The document then explores the idea of community-based art, which seeks to empower marginalized groups by teaching them art skills so they can express themselves. Examples of community-based art projects are provided, showing how they document communities and raise awareness of issues. The reading examines a controversial Percent for Art project by John A

Art for change?
It is often taken for granted that art functions as a tool and a vehicle of social change;
indeed, it was just this theme that we took up in our first discussion board posting. While the
vocal majority seemed to agree that art could foster social change, many of us, when
encountering work such as Warhol’s 200 One Dollar Bills or Marcel Duchamp’sFountain
might find ourselves wondering exactly what type of change such work could really make.
Does a painting that takes money for its subject do anything to unsettle a culture that seems
more and more to place the individual pursuit of money above the needs of the community?
Does a urinal inscribed with a forged signature (see Duchamp’s work mentioned above) do
anything more than offer a paltry challenge to the taste of a leisured class?
It was precisely the complicity of market system art like Duchamp’s and the American Pop
artists like Warhol, Jasper Johns, and Robert Rauschenberg with the oppressive class that
was at the heart of a 1973 protest staged in front of another landmark Sotheby’s auction. On
that October day a group of New York City taxi drivers and artists stood before the renowned
auction house to call down Robert C. Scull who they claimed made his fortune robbing
cabbies and hawking art. Some of the artists marching in solidarity with the taxi cab drivers
rushed out to a nearby hardware store to by a snow shovel to sell at exorbitant price, poking
fun at Duchamp’s In Advance of the Broken Arm. Is this critique of art’s complicity with big
money an apt one?
The idea that the art market is synonymous with ‘business as usual’ is an idea that is as
pervasive today as ever—if not more so. As Eleanor Heartney reminds us in her lecture on
art and labour, one move made by activists of the recent Occupy Wall Street movement was
to set up occupations in a number of New York City’s museums. The organizers of the
Occupy Museums march declared in a public statement that “for the past decade and more,
artists and art lovers have been the victims of the intense commercialization and co-optation
or art.” They further claimed that “art is for everyone, across all classes and cultures and
communities” and not merely for the cultural elite, or the 1%. The artist activists closed their
statement by exhorting museums to open their minds and their hearts: “Art is for everyone!”
they claimed. “The people are at your door!”
These two protests demonstrate an abiding and perhaps growing suspicion of the received
idea that market system art can change things. But while market system art is placed under
intense scrutiny, a growing field of artists and educators have been working to disseminate
the practices and techniques of art making in order to sow the seeds of change. This
community based art (sometimes referred to as ‘dialogical art’ or ‘community arts’) seeks to
place in the hands of the marginalized, the worker, or, in the words of the.

AUTOTROPHS & HETEROTROPHS
Autotrophs make their own food using energy they get directly from the environment, and carbon from inorganic sources such as CO
2
. By metabolic pathways of photosynthesis, plants and other autotrophs capture the energy of light and use it to build sugars from water and carbon dioxide. Heterotrophs get energy and carbon molecules from molecules that other organisms have already assembled.
Earth's early atmosphere held very little free oxygen, and chemoautotrophs were common. When the noncyclic pathway of photosynthesis evolved, oxygen released by photoautotrophs permanently changed the atmosphere, and it was a selective force that favored evolution of aerobic respiration. Photoautotrophs remove CO
2
from the atmosphere; the metabolic activity of most organisms puts it back. Human activities disrupt this cycle by adding extra CO
2
to the atmosphere. The resulting imbalance is contributing to global warming.
Can you do some additional research and find at least one specific heterotroph?

4).
THE EVOLUTION OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS
Life theoretically originated on Earth 3.4 to 4 billion years ago. The atmosphere was thin: composed of methane, carbon dioxide, and water vapor. Any gaseous oxygen had been used up in the combustion (or oxidation) of materials when the Earth was very hot.
The cooling water collected in pools, assimilating nutrients from the rocks. As water evaporated, the nutrients concentrated, forming a rich soup. The first organisms would have lived well off this food source, breaking down the complex molecules into water and carbon dioxide through respiration. Eventually, as life grew, the need arose to somehow re-synthesize complex compounds, both to eat and to use for structure and function. Some organisms learned how to use the Sun's energy to synthesize large molecules from small molecules. Other organisms learned to use other sources of reductive power. These organisms that have learned how to build the building blocks of life are called autotrophs, or self-feeders. Autotrophs are found in the bacterial and plant

1)
ABC’s capital-asset procurement policy requires the Board of CAEs (BOD) approve any single acquisition over $150,000. If the board approves a project, then the treasurer will transfer the funds to the respective plant. Within one year, the internal auditing function is charged with reviewing each acquisition to check the propriety of the purchase and disbursal of funds.
ABC’s Plant Controller prepared the first proposal for a DEK cutting machine. Other plants were told to wait until internal auditing could inspect the documentation associated with the acquisition, and evaluate the project’s operating effectiveness and efficiency. The plant’s proposal was the second largest proposal ever submitted in the company’s history and it totaled $1.3 million dollars. The cost of the new machine by itself was listed in the proposal at $1.1 million. Labor and other costs necessary to remove the old machine and install the new machine totaled $200,000.
The internal auditor assigned to the investigation was Phil Ramone. Phil had been with ABC four years performing mostly production operational audits (on existing processes) and internal control payroll audits. Phil’s considerable experience in these areas led him to believe that the procedures associated with this capital-asset audit would be as simple and routine. This was not Phil’s first visit to the plant. In fact Phil had performed an audit on the plant’s payroll system only a year ago. Phil’s recollection of the experience was not a pleasant one. He had several confrontations with the plant controller, mostly as a result of personality clashes. While all the payroll issues were easily resolved, Phil felt there was still an adversarial relationship between him and the controller and was on guard for any preemptive strikes this time around by the controller.
It was a long drive to the plant so when Phil arrived a little late the day of his audit he was greeted by the controller with a perceived air of indifference and promptly led to a secluded office. The controller calmly explained that he was extremely busy and would answer any questions at the end of the day. Phil merely nodded his head and sat down in front of several tall piles of invoices, which the controller stated was the documentation supporting the purchase, set up, and testing of the new machine. Phil was somewhat surprised, fully expecting to see only a handful of invoices, but did not ask for any explanations. As Phil began looking through the myriad of statements and canceled checks he soon found one particular invoice near the top of the first pile that indicated the actual price paid for the machine itself was only $850,000.
Phil’s first reaction was to call the CAE of auditing. When he found .

Please also respond to my classmate's responses for 3-4 sentences. Here are my classmate's responses:
1. Since my elementary school career, I have drastically changed as a result of being exposed to more anxiety-provoking tasks. My personality has thereby been affected in a number of ways due to the aforementioned prospect. I have since become more organized and artistic due to my increasing creativity--since I have efficacy in visual arts. I have also become more mature, since I am always paying attention to my surroundings and what other people are thinking of me. However many benefits have come around, there are as many negative factors that have affected my personality. As described above, I am always affected by my social anxiety as well as always wanting to be in isolation as a result.
The people who have shaped my personality the most over the span of fifteen years are my parents. I have never acquainted myself with others during my schooling career, in which I would always join friend groups since I would be able to blend within the mix. My mother has allowed me to become more diligent over the span of a few years thereby allowing me to become more vulnerable as well as being independent. My mother also got me in the habit of practicing mindfulness and meditation--since she is a Zen psychologist. This in effect has also improved my mental health. As for my father, he would always follow up with my mother on such activities since he had also experienced loneliness in his working environment. While both myself and my father were going through such rigorous training, we were able to improve upon ourselves as well as monitoring each other during the process.
While I have many similarities to that of my father, my personality type closely resembles that of my mother. This is so since we both have similar mindsets and ideologies, her art also closely resembles that of my own. All the more, she developed in a similar form and fashion to that of my upbringing in which she also had anxiety in abundance while eventually being able to overcome such factors--a process that I have endured myself.
I believe that my anxiety is deeply rooted in the essence of who I am as a human being which has been given to me by both my mother and father. Both experienced separate levels of trepidation, one had social anxiety while the other was agoraphobic for a time. Another factor rela.

Major Paper #2--The Personal Narrative EssayA narrative is simpl.docxBetseyCalderon89
Major Paper #2--The Personal Narrative Essay
A narrative is simply a story. A personal narrative is a true story, focusing largely on the writer’s own life.
For Essay #2, the Personal Narrative, you will be writing a short essay (at least 3-4 pages in length) about a significant event in your own life. This event need not --and probably should not--be inherently, overly dramatic. Sometimes the most influential moments in our lives are smaller moments, events that we may not recognize as influential until years after the experience. In the personal narrative essay, you will want to tell the story as accurately as you can—search your deep memory—and tell the story from your own perspective. You will also want to exercise your selectivity as a writer, choosing to summarize background information/exposition, and really dramatize important scenes for the reader.
During the course of this unit, you will want to read the examples of the Personal Narrative in Chapter 2. You will want to start brainstorming ideas for your own personal narrative, and--by the end of Unit 5--you will want to have selected a significant event that you wish to focus on in this essay.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Elements of Story: Plot, Character, Setting, Dialogue The following four terms (plot, character, setting, and dialogue) are the four major elements of story. In other words, these are all essentials for your personal narrative.
1.) PLOT: A plot is a pattern of events or actions that lead to a change in a character or situation. In the case of this assignment, the plot of your essay should be limited to a key event or series of events that actually occurred in your real life, and resulted in some sort of change in your character, your relationships with others, your worldview, or your situation. Plot also always includes some kind of tension or conflict. This conflict may be external, between two people (for instance, a fist-fight with your brother, or a disagreement with your mother). In contrast, the conflict may be purely internal (for instance, a conflict between what you desire and your sense of morality). By the end of your essay, we should have some sense that the conflict has been dealt with somehow, if not entirely resolved.
2.) CHARACTER: A character is any person depicted on the page. We often think of characters in terms of fiction, characters “made-up” or “invented” by the author to further the story or illustrate a point. Even in fiction, however, characters are often based on real-life people. In your narrative essay, you yourself will become a character—even though you must remain true to the facts of your life, personality, etc.—just because you will be reproducing yourself on the page. As a readers, we’ll want to get a sense of who you are as a character on the page in the course of your essay. By the end of the essay, we will also want to know why/how your experience was significant. How did it change you?

Major Paper #1-The Point of View Essay Deadline October 29, 2.docxBetseyCalderon89
Major Paper #1-The Point of View Essay
Deadline: October 29, 2015 at 11:59 pm
Purpose:
This paper assignment has several purposes. As the first major paper for this class, the Point of View Essay is designed to re-engage you with the fundamentals of all good writing, including using lush sensory details to show the reader a particular place (rather than tell them about it), basic organization, clear focus, etc. However, this unit does not function as a mere review. The Point of View Essay will also introduce you to the concept of "thinking and seeing rhetorically, and analyzing writing rhetorically"--using the Writer's Toolbox described in this unit to improve your writing and critical reading skills. Finally, the Point of View Essay allows you to reflect on this process.
The Assignment:
1. Pleasant/Unpleasant Description of the Place:
Choose a place you can observe for an extended period of time (at least 20-30 minutes). Use all of your senses (sight, hearing, touch, smell, even taste if possible) to experience the place, and record all of the sensations that you experience. As you record your data, you may wish to note which details naturally seem more positive, negative, or neutral, in terms of tone. (For instance, a stinky and overflowing trash barrel swarming with flies in a nearby alley might seem more inherently negative than a little white bunny rabbit hopping playfully across the lawn.) Then, you will use this information to help your write descriptions of the place: one positive, one negative. Both descriptions should be factually true (same real time and real place), but you will want one description to be positive in terms of tone and the other to be negative. In addition to including the information and sensory details you've collected as the basis for these descriptions, you will also use the Writer's Toolbox to create your two contrasting impressions for this assignment. (The Writer's Toolbox is explained in the Lecture Notes section of this unit.) As you revise and refine your descriptions, please be sure you are "showing" your readers your place (really putting the readers "there" in the moment and in this scene), rather than simply "telling" them about it. You will also want to try to eliminate unnecessary linking verbs as much as you can, incorporating verbs that show "action" whenever possible.
2. Rhetorical Analysis:
Looking back at your descriptions, analyze how you created these two very different impressions of the place (one positive, one negative) without changing any of the facts. How did you make your place seem so positive in one paragraph and yet so negative in the other paragraph, without changing the facts? Discuss how you incorporated each of the tools from the Writer's Toolbox, and cite examples of this from each of your descriptions. (This analysis should be at least 400-500 words in length.)
3. Reflection:
In one to two paragraphs, cnsider at least one of the following questions.

Maintaining the Loyalty of Stakeholders
To maintain political, governmental, staff, and patient loyalty, the healthcare organization must provide a sense of organizational stability and view of the legislative landscape. In Chapters 14 and 15 we have researched and investigated the need to align both public opinion with staff trust. The political landscape is the basis for healthcare policy, guidance, state, local, and community support (both fiscal and legal) engaging in political trade-offs to stabilize the healthcare industry (such as in the cost, pharmaceuticals, insurance premiums, and organizational ROI in the healthcare industry).

AUTOTROPHS & HETEROTROPHS
Autotrophs make their own food using energy they get directly from the environment, and carbon from inorganic sources such as CO
2
. By metabolic pathways of photosynthesis, plants and other autotrophs capture the energy of light and use it to build sugars from water and carbon dioxide. Heterotrophs get energy and carbon molecules from molecules that other organisms have already assembled.
Earth's early atmosphere held very little free oxygen, and chemoautotrophs were common. When the noncyclic pathway of photosynthesis evolved, oxygen released by photoautotrophs permanently changed the atmosphere, and it was a selective force that favored evolution of aerobic respiration. Photoautotrophs remove CO
2
from the atmosphere; the metabolic activity of most organisms puts it back. Human activities disrupt this cycle by adding extra CO
2
to the atmosphere. The resulting imbalance is contributing to global warming.
Can you do some additional research and find at least one specific heterotroph?

4).
THE EVOLUTION OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS
Life theoretically originated on Earth 3.4 to 4 billion years ago. The atmosphere was thin: composed of methane, carbon dioxide, and water vapor. Any gaseous oxygen had been used up in the combustion (or oxidation) of materials when the Earth was very hot.
The cooling water collected in pools, assimilating nutrients from the rocks. As water evaporated, the nutrients concentrated, forming a rich soup. The first organisms would have lived well off this food source, breaking down the complex molecules into water and carbon dioxide through respiration. Eventually, as life grew, the need arose to somehow re-synthesize complex compounds, both to eat and to use for structure and function. Some organisms learned how to use the Sun's energy to synthesize large molecules from small molecules. Other organisms learned to use other sources of reductive power. These organisms that have learned how to build the building blocks of life are called autotrophs, or self-feeders. Autotrophs are found in the bacterial and plant

ABC’s capital-asset procurement policy requires the Board of CAEs (BOD) approve any single acquisition over $150,000. If the board approves a project, then the treasurer will transfer the funds to the respective plant. Within one year, the internal auditing function is charged with reviewing each acquisition to check the propriety of the purchase and disbursal of funds.
ABC’s Plant Controller prepared the first proposal for a DEK cutting machine. Other plants were told to wait until internal auditing could inspect the documentation associated with the acquisition, and evaluate the project’s operating effectiveness and efficiency. The plant’s proposal was the second largest proposal ever submitted in the company’s history and it totaled $1.3 million dollars. The cost of the new machine by itself was listed in the proposal at $1.1 million. Labor and other costs necessary to remove the old machine and install the new machine totaled $200,000.
The internal auditor assigned to the investigation was Phil Ramone. Phil had been with ABC four years performing mostly production operational audits (on existing processes) and internal control payroll audits. Phil’s considerable experience in these areas led him to believe that the procedures associated with this capital-asset audit would be as simple and routine. This was not Phil’s first visit to the plant. In fact Phil had performed an audit on the plant’s payroll system only a year ago. Phil’s recollection of the experience was not a pleasant one. He had several confrontations with the plant controller, mostly as a result of personality clashes. While all the payroll issues were easily resolved, Phil felt there was still an adversarial relationship between him and the controller and was on guard for any preemptive strikes this time around by the controller.
It was a long drive to the plant so when Phil arrived a little late the day of his audit he was greeted by the controller with a perceived air of indifference and promptly led to a secluded office. The controller calmly explained that he was extremely busy and would answer any questions at the end of the day. Phil merely nodded his head and sat down in front of several tall piles of invoices, which the controller stated was the documentation supporting the purchase, set up, and testing of the new machine. Phil was somewhat surprised, fully expecting to see only a handful of invoices, but did not ask for any explanations. As Phil began looking through the myriad of statements and canceled checks he soon found one particular invoice near the top of the first pile that indicated the actual price paid for the machine itself was only $850,000.
Phil’s first reaction was to call the CAE of auditing. When he found .

Make a list of your own personality traits and then address the following questions:
How much, if at all, has your personality changed from the time you were in elementary school?
What specific people and/or events most shaped your personality over the last fifteen years of your life?
In terms of personality, which parent are you most like—your mother or your father—and in what ways?
After you consider these questions, discuss how, if at all, your answers may help to shed light on the “nature” versus “nurture”
Please also respond to my classmate's responses for 3-4 sentences. Here are my classmate's responses:
1. Since my elementary school career, I have drastically changed as a result of being exposed to more anxiety-provoking tasks. My personality has thereby been affected in a number of ways due to the aforementioned prospect. I have since become more organized and artistic due to my increasing creativity--since I have efficacy in visual arts. I have also become more mature, since I am always paying attention to my surroundings and what other people are thinking of me. However many benefits have come around, there are as many negative factors that have affected my personality. As described above, I am always affected by my social anxiety as well as always wanting to be in isolation as a result.
The people who have shaped my personality the most over the span of fifteen years are my parents. I have never acquainted myself with others during my schooling career, in which I would always join friend groups since I would be able to blend within the mix. My mother has allowed me to become more diligent over the span of a few years thereby allowing me to become more vulnerable as well as being independent. My mother also got me in the habit of practicing mindfulness and meditation--since she is a Zen psychologist. This in effect has also improved my mental health. As for my father, he would always follow up with my mother on such activities since he had also experienced loneliness in his working environment. While both myself and my father were going through such rigorous training, we were able to improve upon ourselves as well as monitoring each other during the process.
While I have many similarities to that of my father, my personality type closely resembles that of my mother. This is so since we both have similar mindsets and ideologies, her art also closely resembles that of my own. All the more, she developed in a similar form and fashion to that of my upbringing in which she also had anxiety in abundance while eventually being able to overcome such factors--a process that I have endured myself.
I believe that my anxiety is deeply rooted in the essence of who I am as a human being which has been given to me by both my mother and father. Both experienced separate levels of trepidation, one had social anxiety while the other was agoraphobic for a time. Another factor rela.

Major Paper #2--The Personal Narrative EssayA narrative is simpl.docxBetseyCalderon89
Major Paper #2--The Personal Narrative Essay
A narrative is simply a story. A personal narrative is a true story, focusing largely on the writer’s own life.
For Essay #2, the Personal Narrative, you will be writing a short essay (at least 3-4 pages in length) about a significant event in your own life. This event need not --and probably should not--be inherently, overly dramatic. Sometimes the most influential moments in our lives are smaller moments, events that we may not recognize as influential until years after the experience. In the personal narrative essay, you will want to tell the story as accurately as you can—search your deep memory—and tell the story from your own perspective. You will also want to exercise your selectivity as a writer, choosing to summarize background information/exposition, and really dramatize important scenes for the reader.
During the course of this unit, you will want to read the examples of the Personal Narrative in Chapter 2. You will want to start brainstorming ideas for your own personal narrative, and--by the end of Unit 5--you will want to have selected a significant event that you wish to focus on in this essay.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Elements of Story: Plot, Character, Setting, Dialogue The following four terms (plot, character, setting, and dialogue) are the four major elements of story. In other words, these are all essentials for your personal narrative.
1.) PLOT: A plot is a pattern of events or actions that lead to a change in a character or situation. In the case of this assignment, the plot of your essay should be limited to a key event or series of events that actually occurred in your real life, and resulted in some sort of change in your character, your relationships with others, your worldview, or your situation. Plot also always includes some kind of tension or conflict. This conflict may be external, between two people (for instance, a fist-fight with your brother, or a disagreement with your mother). In contrast, the conflict may be purely internal (for instance, a conflict between what you desire and your sense of morality). By the end of your essay, we should have some sense that the conflict has been dealt with somehow, if not entirely resolved.
2.) CHARACTER: A character is any person depicted on the page. We often think of characters in terms of fiction, characters “made-up” or “invented” by the author to further the story or illustrate a point. Even in fiction, however, characters are often based on real-life people. In your narrative essay, you yourself will become a character—even though you must remain true to the facts of your life, personality, etc.—just because you will be reproducing yourself on the page. As a readers, we’ll want to get a sense of who you are as a character on the page in the course of your essay. By the end of the essay, we will also want to know why/how your experience was significant. How did it change you?

Major Paper #1-The Point of View Essay Deadline October 29, 2.docxBetseyCalderon89
Major Paper #1-The Point of View Essay
Deadline: October 29, 2015 at 11:59 pm
Purpose:
This paper assignment has several purposes. As the first major paper for this class, the Point of View Essay is designed to re-engage you with the fundamentals of all good writing, including using lush sensory details to show the reader a particular place (rather than tell them about it), basic organization, clear focus, etc. However, this unit does not function as a mere review. The Point of View Essay will also introduce you to the concept of "thinking and seeing rhetorically, and analyzing writing rhetorically"--using the Writer's Toolbox described in this unit to improve your writing and critical reading skills. Finally, the Point of View Essay allows you to reflect on this process.
The Assignment:
1. Pleasant/Unpleasant Description of the Place:
Choose a place you can observe for an extended period of time (at least 20-30 minutes). Use all of your senses (sight, hearing, touch, smell, even taste if possible) to experience the place, and record all of the sensations that you experience. As you record your data, you may wish to note which details naturally seem more positive, negative, or neutral, in terms of tone. (For instance, a stinky and overflowing trash barrel swarming with flies in a nearby alley might seem more inherently negative than a little white bunny rabbit hopping playfully across the lawn.) Then, you will use this information to help your write descriptions of the place: one positive, one negative. Both descriptions should be factually true (same real time and real place), but you will want one description to be positive in terms of tone and the other to be negative. In addition to including the information and sensory details you've collected as the basis for these descriptions, you will also use the Writer's Toolbox to create your two contrasting impressions for this assignment. (The Writer's Toolbox is explained in the Lecture Notes section of this unit.) As you revise and refine your descriptions, please be sure you are "showing" your readers your place (really putting the readers "there" in the moment and in this scene), rather than simply "telling" them about it. You will also want to try to eliminate unnecessary linking verbs as much as you can, incorporating verbs that show "action" whenever possible.
2. Rhetorical Analysis:
Looking back at your descriptions, analyze how you created these two very different impressions of the place (one positive, one negative) without changing any of the facts. How did you make your place seem so positive in one paragraph and yet so negative in the other paragraph, without changing the facts? Discuss how you incorporated each of the tools from the Writer's Toolbox, and cite examples of this from each of your descriptions. (This analysis should be at least 400-500 words in length.)
3. Reflection:
In one to two paragraphs, cnsider at least one of the following questions.
Maintenance and TroubleshootingDescribe the maintenance procedures.docxBetseyCalderon89
Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Describe the maintenance procedures planned for the proposed network, including a schedule of maintenance activities and the steps required for each activity.

Maintaining the Loyalty of StakeholdersTo maintain political, gove.docxBetseyCalderon89
Maintaining the Loyalty of Stakeholders
To maintain political, governmental, staff, and patient loyalty, the healthcare organization must provide a sense of organizational stability and view of the legislative landscape. In Chapters 14 and 15 we have researched and investigated the need to align both public opinion with staff trust. The political landscape is the basis for healthcare policy, guidance, state, local, and community support (both fiscal and legal) engaging in political trade-offs to stabilize the healthcare industry (such as in the cost, pharmaceuticals, insurance premiums, and organizational ROI in the healthcare industry). Healthcare organizations must provide the necessary guidance and advocacy for stakeholders in the setting of both state and federal legislature as a voice of reason, authority, and integrity. Provide information on the following:
Research a policy associated with the Affordable Care Act in your home state or another state that may affect healthcare reform and/or the way health care is provided in the chosen state.
Describe the policy and who wrote and/or promoted the policy legislature (provide statistical data).
What are the trade-offs offered to bring balance to the healthcare stakeholders?
What role have public perception and disinterestedness played in the valuation of healthcare performance?
Describe how process innovation, risk taking, health policy analysis, and governance “sense-making” provide balance for stakeholders.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Art for change It is often taken for granted that art f
1. Art for change?
It is often taken for granted that art functions as a tool and a
vehicle of social change;
indeed, it was just this theme that we took up in our first
discussion board posting. While the
vocal majority seemed to agree that art could foster social
change, many of us, when
encountering work such as Warhol’s 200 One Dollar Bills or
Marcel Duchamp’sFountain
might find ourselves wondering exactly what type of change
such work could really make.
Does a painting that takes money for its subject do anything to
unsettle a culture that seems
more and more to place the individual pursuit of money above
the needs of the community?
Does a urinal inscribed with a forged signature (see Duchamp’s
work mentioned above) do
anything more than offer a paltry challenge to the taste of a
leisured class?
It was precisely the complicity of market system art like
Duchamp’s and the American Pop
artists like Warhol, Jasper Johns, and Robert Rauschenberg with
the oppressive class that
was at the heart of a 1973 protest staged in front of another
landmark Sotheby’s auction. On
that October day a group of New York City taxi drivers and
artists stood before the renowned
auction house to call down Robert C. Scull who they claimed
made his fortune robbing
cabbies and hawking art. Some of the artists marching in
2. solidarity with the taxi cab drivers
rushed out to a nearby hardware store to by a snow shovel to
sell at exorbitant price, poking
fun at Duchamp’s In Advance of the Broken Arm. Is this
critique of art’s complicity with big
money an apt one?
The idea that the art market is synonymous with ‘business as
usual’ is an idea that is as
pervasive today as ever—if not more so. As Eleanor Heartney
reminds us in her lecture on
art and labour, one move made by activists of the recent Occupy
Wall Street movement was
to set up occupations in a number of New York City’s museums.
The organizers of the
Occupy Museums march declared in a public statement that “for
the past decade and more,
artists and art lovers have been the victims of the intense
commercialization and co-optation
or art.” They further claimed that “art is for everyone, across all
classes and cultures and
communities” and not merely for the cultural elite, or the 1%.
The artist activists closed their
statement by exhorting museums to open their minds and their
hearts: “Art is for everyone!”
they claimed. “The people are at your door!”
These two protests demonstrate an abiding and perhaps growing
suspicion of the received
idea that market system art can change things. But while market
system art is placed under
intense scrutiny, a growing field of artists and educators have
been working to disseminate
the practices and techniques of art making in order to sow the
seeds of change. This
community based art (sometimes referred to as ‘dialogical art’
3. or ‘community arts’) seeks to
place in the hands of the marginalized, the worker, or, in the
words of the Occupy
Movement, the 99%, the means of cultural production. The hope
is that providing someone
with the tools to tell her story in her words, will foster the sort
of change that some fear art
has become incapable of.
Community based art: a voice of change, a voice of one’s own
A term popularized in the 1960s, community based art, and
community based art education
quickly became a popular practice of cultural enrichment in
community centres, union halls,
and educational institutions across North America, parts of
Europe, and Austrailia. Although
the recent economic downturn and the resulting deep budget
cuts have lead to the stemming
of funds to such programs, the success stories and the tangible
production of meaning and
pride that have resulted from these initiatives show us art really
does have the power to
make change; indeed, commentators such as Mcleod might well
argue that the sorts of cuts
we see happening to arts budgets are not merely the result of
necessary ‘belt-tightening’, but
instead represent an active effort to undermine the change
provoked by such community
based art work.
The idea behind community based art is simple: it is meant to
4. give voice to the otherwise
voiceless or silenced. Two fundamental and related claims lay
at the foundation of
community based art: 1) that the canonical, or market system art
of the cultural elite neither
speaks to nor for the experience of marginalized or under -
privileged groups, classes, or
communities; 2) that art and the means of its production are not
the exclusive property of a
creative or initiated class. To put it in somewhat less politicized
terms: community based art
allows folks to tell their own stories, in their own words.
Community based art in practice
Community based art involves an artist or art educator working
within a classroom or
community to teach the techniques and practices of artmaking.
Equipped with these tools
students and community members are able to engage with their
own experiences of their
culture, workplace, and daily lives. Such work documents these
experiences and allows for
such newly empowered artists to paint, narrate, play, sing,
photograph, sculpt, or act their
stories their way. In the process of this expression one is invited
to reflect on oneself and
one’s values, and a new relationship with one’s place in the
larger social context is fostered;
one is invited to open both to one’s own creative processes and
that of others. In sharing in
these explorations with others, one encounters both the
similarities and the differences
between oneself and the community with which he or she works.
Community based art is often created with specific goals in
5. mind. Some work is produced to
raise awareness about certain a certain cause or community
concern such as bolstering
labour relations, or the prevention of gang violence, drug use,
or the spread of STDs. One
recent community based art program has taken up the cause of
making people more
comfortable with the idea extended breastfeeding. Far from
being prescriptive, these goals
are arrived at organically by members of the community.
Other work is meant to document the story of an under-
represented segment of society. The
photographs of Hurmuses, the WDI photography program, and
those available on the
websites of unions such as OPSEU’s do just this work. They
show people on the job, on the
picket line, on the march on labour day, and otherwise sharing
in and working with their
community. Documentaries like China Blue andMaquilapolis by
Vicky Funari and Sergio de
la Torre (discussed by Eleanor Heartney in this week’s second
video) also do this sort of
work; Funari and de la Torre, for instance, invited the
maquiladora workers documented in
their film to themselves shoot footage and conduct interviews.
We have already had a taste of the sort of work community
based art programs do today, in
the shape of the photography produce by Gayle Hurmuses, and
in the rap, graphic design
and photography programs of the WDI. Eleanor Heartney in her
video describes some
6. market system artists whose work can be productively read as
taking up the practices of
community based art, just as the work of John Ahearn (taken up
in our third reading) can be.
Throughout the remainder of the semester we will continue to
explore community based art
both as it was practiced in decades past, and as it is practiced
today.
Reading 3: Whose Art Is It?
“John went home from the meeting with “community”
approval— though it is probably
accurate to say that a community board of thirty-five people
appointed by their borough
president is no more and no less “the community” than a block
on Walton Avenue.”
– Jane Kramer
In this the third reading of module 3 & 4 Jane Kramer explores
the controversial work John
Ahearn produced for New York City’s Percent for Art program.
Ahearn is a white artist with
an upper middleclass background, who moved to a South Bronx
neighbourhood to work in
and with a community he’d grown to love and be a part of. The
work he produced for the
44
th
Police Precinct, featured painted bronze castings of members of
the Ahearn’s Walton
7. Avenue neighbourhood. The response to Ahearn’s work raises a
number of question about
who the artist works for (especially where his work is meant to
represent a community); To
whom the art work belongs; how the race and privilege of the
artist impacted upon the work’s
interpretation; and otherwise challenges us to think about the
conflicting and overlapping
values of market system art and community based art.
While Ahearn is undoubtedly an exponent of the art market and
the gallery system, he has
nonetheless tirelessly worked to embed himself in his South
Bronx community the better to
work through and with it. He views his effort to produce work
that he felt represented the
community— indeed, work that was produced with the
community— as a failure precisely
because of the ways in which it upset a number of parties. He
even going so far as to alter
the work to better please the work’s critics. Yet, despite the
harsh and emotionally charged
criticism of Ahearn’s work, both his subjects (Corey and
Raymond) and his appointed jury of
artists and officials deemed the work good, or even important.
What do you think of Ahearn’s work? Was it a misguided
attempt to speak for a community
he had no business attempting to speak for? Was he
misunderstood by his detractors? Did
the community ultimately gain or lose by the removal of his
short lived installation?
