Rotary World Peace Fellows are leaders promoting national and international cooperation, peace, and the successful resolution of conflict throughout their lives, in their careers, and through service activities. Fellows can earn either a master’s degree in international relations, public administration, sustainable development, peace studies, conflict resolution, or a related field, or a professional development certificate in peace and conflict resolution. As part of this distinguished award, Dr. McIntosh will spend three months next summer at Chulalongkorn University in Thailand at the Rotary Center for International Studies in Peace and Conflict Resolution. "There is no one more deserving of this honor than Ian, whose entire career has been dedicated to advancing cross-cultural understanding and cooperation, whether this was through his work with Aboriginal land rights in Australia, reforestation in Armenia, the global NGO known as Cultural Survival, or his leadership of IUPUI’s international partnership program," said Susan Buck Sutton, Associate Vice Chancellor of International Affairs at IUPUI, Chancellor's P:rofessor of Anthropology, and Associate Vice President, Office of the Vice President of International Affairs, Indiana University. The purpose of the Rotary Centers program is to: Support and advance research, teaching, publication, and practical field experience on issues of peace, goodwill, causes of conflict, and world understanding Inspire people to work for a culture of peace and tolerance while enhancing their capacity, knowledge, and skill by generating interaction between practitioners and academics Provide advanced international education opportunities in the area of peace and conflict resolution Provide a means for The Rotary Foundation and Rotarians to increase their effectiveness in promoting greater tolerance and cooperation among peoples, leading to world understanding and peace Dr. McIntosh's research interests focus on issues of truth and reconciliation in global perspective and he teaches a class at IUPUI that utilizes a unique 'reconciliation barometer' to shed light on the quest for reconciliation through treaties, peace accords, apologies, reparations, truth commissions, trials and memorials. In partnership with the Scholars at Risk Network of New York University, and Human Rights Works, he coordinates the “Voices at Risk, Visions of Hope” speaker series at IUPUI. This series provides opportunities for our faculty, staff, and students to interact via video-conference with some of the world’s most distinguished scholars who, as a result of their advocacy for human rights and justice in their homelands, have been forced to take refuge in the USA.   Wed, 18 Nov 2009 00:00:00 -0500 http://newscenter.iupui.edu/images/60_sq_mcintosh.jpg http://newscenter.iupui.edu/images/200_mcintosh.jpg http://newscenter.iupui.edu/4350/Kathleen-Grove-Receives-Professional-Award-of-Merit http://newscenter.iupui.edu/4350/Kathleen-Grove-Receives-Professional-Award-of-Merit The Indiana Association for Marriage and Family Therapy recently presented an Award of Merit to Kathleen Grove, director of the IUPUI Office for Women.

Join Harry Boyte, founder and co-director of the Center for Democracy and Citizenship now at Augsburg College, and a Senior Fellow at the Humphrey Institute at the University of Minnesota, along with a panel of distinguished scholars who are grappling with how higher education institutions can integrate civic agency in ways that go beyond activities towards an identity of engagement, with institutions deeply grounded in their communities and regions and “filled with the democratic spirit,” as former Harvard president Charles Elliott once described his university. This webcast will explore efforts underway at several institutions with the intent of launching an international discussion of these questions. Co-sponsors of the event are The American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU)'s American Democracy Project and The American Association of Colleges and Universities (AAC&U).

With this year’s IUPUI Common Theme well underway, McKibben’s book Deep Economy has been the topic of much dialog around campus and on the Common Theme blog. McKibben asks simple but profound questions: Is more better? How might we rebuild today’s economy for a durable future? Now is the time for everyone reading the book and everyone interested in these questions to come hear the author. The IUPUI and central Indiana community is invited to this Spirit and Place Civic Festival event. On Nov. 10, everyone is welcome back to the Indiana State Museum, where McKibben will join a panel of local experts discussing the question, “Can Local Food Feed Indiana and the World?” This panel will be held in the ISM’s White Auditorium from 10:30-11:45 am on Nov. 10. Come hear the author whose book is creating so much buzz on campus and join the conversation about green economy, healthy communities and just sustainability. The IUPUI Common Theme thanks our sponsors, IUPUI’s 40th Anniversary Fund, University Place Hotel and Conference Center, the Indiana State Museum and NUVO, and our partners, Go Green IUPUI, Christian Theological Seminary, Earth Charter Indiana, Hoosier Environmental Council, Improving Kids’ Environment, Indianapolis Winter Farmers Market, and the Unitarian Universalist Church of Indianapolis for their support.

Except Cowles didn’t need beach towels or sunscreen where she was headed – a maximum security prison near Philadelphia, Pa. Cowles, a PhD student in the Indiana University School of Social Work, was so taken with a course on an initiative called The Inside-Out Prison Exchange Program, she decided to become a certified teacher of the program by attending the program’s National Instructor Training Institute at Temple University and Graterford Prison. Inside-Out was founded in 1997 by Lori Pompa, a member of the Criminal Justice Department at Temple University. The program is built around the idea “that incarcerated men and women and college students might mutually benefit from studying crime, justice, and related social issues together as peers,” according to the program’s website. Cowles had been looking at courses for the spring semester when she spotted a class on the prison exchange program and decided to take it as it fell within her area of interest. The class was taught by Susan B. Hyatt, an Associate Professor of Anthropology at IUPUI. Hyatt, along with Roger Jarjoura, an Associate Professor at the School of Public an Environmental Affairs, co-founded Inside-Out Indiana at IUPUI. Little did she know the course would ignite a new passion and research interest for her doctoral degree.   During the spring semester, Cowles and other classmates from IUPUI went to the Indiana Women’s Prison on Indianapolis’ near-eastside. There, they studied alongside women incarcerated in the facility who agreed to participate even though they wouldn’t earn any credit. “They were doing it just for the sake of doing it,” Cowles said. Cowles’ group decided to design a program aimed at individuals serving lengthy sentences. “People with sentences of 10 years or longer don’t have access to services,” she noted. The group put together a program that would address things like substance abuse, grief, appropriate relationships. The experience left its mark on the IUPUI students, Cowles said. “For the outside students, it blows their minds away, the kinds of people being put behind bars and what they have to offer,” she said. One of the “outside” students who took the course became a police officer upon graduation. “She said for every arrest she made or interaction with an offender, it would be burned in her brain these women who were sitting there and how they were treated,” Cowles recalled. The student indicated she “would act with that (memory) in the back of her mind as a police officer from that day forward.” Cowles was so taken by the model that it changed her mind on the types of people who were incarcerated that she had felt comfortable working with up to that point and it opened a door to an area of research she now wants to focus on. Cowles worked as a juvenile probation officer for three and a half years in DuPage County, Ill., a suburb of Chicago. The experience was eye-opening to say the least. “I saw minority youth getting handed out harsher sentences and being held to a higher level of accountability than wealthy white families. That really upset me,” Cowles noted. Cowles, who earned her MSW degree while working as a probation officer, realized she wanted to find a way to have a bigger impact on the criminal justice system than she would as a probation officer. Now, she sees research opportunities on the prison exchange program as allowing her to do just that. “I never worked with adults or women,” Cowles said. As a probation officer, she found boys easier to work with and even shied away from girls. “So the course was a real opening of my mind to the possibilities of working with adults and women.” In essence, Cowles described the model as creating an opportunity to have a learning experience with people with whom you would not normally share a classroom. “What’s interesting about the model is it is not content specific. You can plug in any area of interest to the model and teach it.” When the spring semester class ended, Cowles decided to pursue training that would allow her to teach a class based on the model and paid $2,000 to travel to Philadelphia to attend the prison exchange program’s training institute. As part of the training, Cowles visited the county jail in Philadelphia. “It was just a sea of men. I’ll never forget it.” At Graterford, Cowles met with men incarcerated there who were members of a think tank who work with the Inside-Out program. “All of them except for one are lifers,” Cowles noted. One man who worked with Pompa to develop the program sees the program as his legacy. “Without it, he doesn’t know what he would have put his energy toward,” Cowles said. The issue of young people being sent to prison for the rest of their lives is one that particularly interests Cowles. “How can we get to the people given long sentences as children and still be able to give them avenues of worth and value,” Cowles said. “I feel this program does that, it gives them an opportunity to give back, to interact with people they wouldn’t normally be able to.” Cowles is working to develop a syllabus for a course to be offered this summer.     Fri, 30 Oct 2009 00:00:00 -0400 http://newscenter.iupui.edu/images/60_sq_cowles (2).jpg http://newscenter.iupui.edu/images/200_cowles (2).jpg http://newscenter.iupui.edu/4328/DEPARTMENT-OF-MATHEMATICAL-SCIENCE-AT-IUPUI-WILL-HOST-SIXTH-ANNUAL-STATISTICS-CAREER-DAY http://newscenter.iupui.edu/4328/DEPARTMENT-OF-MATHEMATICAL-SCIENCE-AT-IUPUI-WILL-HOST-SIXTH-ANNUAL-STATISTICS-CAREER-DAY The Department of Mathematical Science at the School of Science at IUPUI will team up with the Indiana Chapter of the American Statistical Association (ASA) and the IU Division of Biostatistics for the sixth annual Statistics Career Day. Statistics Career Day provides an opportunity for teachers and students to meet statisticians from a variety of fields to discover career opportunities in statistics and to learn how statistical careers developed over time. “The School of Science is thrilled to host the Statistics Career Day on IUPUI campus,” says Bart Ng Dean of School of Science at IUPUI. “This event is a great opportunity for students and teachers to learn more about not only the opportunities in mathematics and statistics, but also the importance of a statistician in the science field.” The Statistics Career Day will consist of six speakers from academia and industry who will each give a short presentation about their careers in statistics before answering questions from the students. In addition to the presentations, various companies, organizations, and researchers from the university will be on hand to provide information to attendees interested in pursuing careers in mathematics and statistics It is anticipated that more than 200 students will participate at the event on November 11, 2009 at the IUPUI Campus Center, Room 450A. Teachers and students in grades 9-12 who are interested in mathematics and statistics should attend.

The 14th annual Public Conversation, featuring Fetterman and Hudnut in a dialogue moderated by Indiana author Scott Russell Sanders, will take place from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 15, 2009, at St. Luke’s United Methodist Church, 100 W. 86th St., Indianapolis. The Public Conversation is the closing marquee event of the Spirit and Place Festival, a collaborative community project managed by The Polis Center, part of the IU School of Liberal Arts at IUPUI. Spirit & Place Director Pamela Blevins Hinkle has compared the 10-day festival to a community potluck for which the festival administrators set the theme and invite community organizations and groups to prepare programs as “potluck dishes” to be shared with others. The 2009 festival runs Nov. 6 through Nov. 15. The theme is “Inspiring Places.” This year's festival is expected to engage about 20,000 people in 40 events sponsored by more than 100 organizations throughout central Indiana. About 85 percent of the events, which celebrate the arts, humanities and religion, are free of charge. With Hudnut and Fetterman at center stage, the Public Conversation will continue its traditional presentation of dynamic and thought-provoking dialogue. During his 16 years as mayor (1976-1991), Hudnut helped transform Indianapolis as he labored to advance the “Unigov” concept, promote entrepreneurial public-private partnerships, and develop the city’s plan to become a “sports capital.” In an Indianapolis Monthly Magazine opinion poll published in October 1996, 35 percent of the responders considered Hudnut as Indianapolis’s best mayor. Fetterman won election as Braddock’s mayor in 2005 by one vote. In a November 2009 Atlantic Monthly article Fetterman is listed as one of 27 “Brave Thinkers” because of his efforts to “save (Braddock) by luring artists and small businesses with loft apartments, cheap rent, and other inducements . . . It’s an utterly idealistic experiment in extreme urban renewal with next to zero financial backing—one that could totally fail, or perhaps serve as a model for other devastated industrial towns.” No tickets are required for the Public Conversation which is free of charge. An audience question-and-answer session will follow Fetterman’s and Hudnut’s discussion. The evening’s program will conclude with a “surround sound” performance featuring multiple choirs.

Of particular interest to the Germans, was the School of Social Work’s use of volunteering as a tool in classrooms, said Associate Professor Lisa McGuire. McGuire, along with Associate Professor Kathy Lay took a group of 10 social work students to attend the conference sponsored by Caritas in Cologne, Germany at the end of September. School of Social Work Dean Michael Patchner accompanied the group as well. Caritas is the national arm of Catholic Social Services in Germany and has a relationship with a number of agencies in that country. “There is not a strong cultural tradition (to volunteer) as there has been in the United States,” McGuire noted. “Part of the reason we have developed more volunteer services is we haven’t developed our social welfare system to the extent Germany has,” she said. While Caritas has been interested in trying to develop the capacity for volunteerism in Germany, there is a concern among some people that if they do more volunteering that will contract the public services that are available. “They are trying to build this from nothing,” McGuire said of the public’s attitude toward volunteering. “This is a very interesting time when everybody is looking at the economy and money and what needs to be a government responsibility and what needs to be personal volunteering.” “I think all of us came to the conclusion there is room for both – a good strong social welfare system that is augmented by volunteerism. But how to get that balance right is really challenging.” McGuire and Lay presented a formal 90-minute lecture and also held an all-day workshop for 15 people, including the IU students. “We presented the DEAL model – the idea was you could use volunteering as a tool in classrooms,” McGuire said. “While there is obviously a benefit to volunteering, it is also a tool for students to learn the classroom material better, she explained. The DEAL is an academic tool to document the learning and encourage critical thinking for volunteering in classes – what we know in the US as service-learning. “There has to be a link between the volunteering and the classroom content” she explained. For example, Lay teaches human behavior theory in the Master of Social Work program. She has her students volunteer at Horizon House – an agency that provides services to the homeless. The students have to identify the theories they have learn in class with their interactions with people at Horizon House, McGuire said.   “Not only does it help students understand the class content, but they learn about things that are sometimes hard to capture – how people are different than themselves and about social welfare programs that we have that work or don’t work,” she added. “It was really a new concept for them (the Germans),” McGuire said. The invitation to attend the conference came after a Caritas official came to Indianapolis several years ago and visited the School of Social Work during his stay here. Another feature of the trip was the students got to visit several social service agencies, including a women’s addiction facility. The women are able to spend 12 to 16 weeks for rehabilitation, which is unheard of in a public facility in the U.S., McGuire noted. They can also bring their children who are up to age six to stay with them. The students got a chance to talk with six women about their treatment, she added. The students also visited a child welfare agency and got a sense of how the German system differs from what typically happens in the U.S. Germany provides many services to people before they reach the point of being involved in the child protection system, McGuire noted. The visits provided the IU students a chance to see the differences in approaches to the same problems agencies in the U.S. are trying to deal with.         Fri, 23 Oct 2009 00:00:00 -0400 http://newscenter.iupui.edu/images/60_sq_pa020383.jpg http://newscenter.iupui.edu/images/200_pa020383.jpg http://newscenter.iupui.edu/4245/International-Scholars-to-Hold-Africana-Studies-Conference-on-Globalization-and-Entrepreneurship-Keynote-Speakers-include-Nigerian-King http://newscenter.iupui.edu/4245/International-Scholars-to-Hold-Africana-Studies-Conference-on-Globalization-and-Entrepreneurship-Keynote-Speakers-include-Nigerian-King Scholars from around the world, including a Nigerian king and entrepreneur, will gather at IUPUI to address globalization and economic development in Indiana, the United States and other countries. The first Public Scholars in Africana Studies International Conference will take place Oct. 29-31, 2009, at the University Place Conference Center and Hotel, 850 W. Michigan St., located on the Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) campus. The theme is “Rethinking Economic Development in the Context of Globalization: Entrepreneurship, the Knowledge Economy, and Sustainable Development.” Conference events open to the general public begin Oct. 30, 2009, and include a book fair, along with workshops and keynote lectures on the effects of globalization on economies around the world. Presentations also will offer solutions on how to rejuvenate the economies of America and other countries. “We are now in the midst of an economic recession in which many Americans have lost their jobs and others continue to lose their jobs every day,” said conference organizer and IUPUI faculty member Bessie House-Soremekun. “Now is the appropriate time to assemble some of the best and brightest minds in the world to discuss these critical issues and offer solutions to be used to create more jobs and wealth in the world today.” Specific topics for discussion include: How to Succeed in Business in the 21st Century Knowledge Economy International Business Opportunities in the Changing Global Economy The Impact of Globalization on Africa and the African Diaspora Keynote speakers include His Royal Majesty Oba (King) Michael Aremu Gbadebo, the Okukenu IV and Paramount Ruler of Egbaland in Nigeria. Gbadebo, an accomplished entrepreneur, will speak on “The Changing Role of Nigeria in the 21st Century Knowledge Economy.” Egbaland, located in southwestern Nigeria, has a population of about 1.5 million. “Oba (King) Gbadebo has by dint of hard work, achieved notable success in the highly competitive world of the private sector, which has strengthened his background for the exalted royal position of the Alake, Paramount Ruler of Egbaland,” House said. “During his successful foray for two decades into the private sector, he has promoted and established interest in five corporate organizations.” Other keynote speakers include Dr. Keenan Grenell, vice president and dean of diversity and associate professor of Africana and Latin American studies at Colgate University; Dr. Toyin Falola, Frances Higginbotham Nalle Centennial Professor in History and a Distinguished Teaching Professor at the University of Texas at Austin; and Chief Jimmy Gboyega Delano, president and CEO of Ilora L’Original Beauty Concepts, Inc., which has headquarters in Chicago, Ill., and offices in many countries of the world. Registration for the two days of public events is $150 per person, and covers panel attendance, the plenary session and the keynote luncheon on Friday, Oct. 30, 2009. Registration is $100 for one day of attendance. IUPUI students and Indianapolis high school students can attend for $25 plus the cost of the meals. Tickets for an awards dinner scheduled for Sat., Oct. 31, 2009, are $50 each. IUPUI conference sponsors include the 40th Anniversary Celebration Committee; the School of Liberal Arts; the Office of the Assistant Chancellor for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion; the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research; the Office of the Associate Vice Chancellor for Lifelong Learning; the Committee on African and African American Studies; the Office of the Vice Chancellor for International Affairs; the African American and African Diaspora Studies Program; and the Olaniyan Scholars.

Thus, its engagement effect is not only positive for its own students, faculty, and community, but for others as well. We are pleased that Dobelle’s study placed us at the top of U.S. universities—with two leading private institutions (the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and University of Southern California in Los Angeles), which have invested millions in rebuilding their neighborhoods, and with two urban public universities (the University of Houston and University of Missouri at Kansas City). During this, our 40th anniversary year, community members expressed their praise for IUPUI’s impact. By pursuing the vision of community leaders who in 1969 emphatically said, “A great city must have a great university,” we have built an IUPUI that makes a difference. As I said at the 40th Anniversary Staff and Faculty Recognition Breakfast last month, the credit for all this goes to all of you.
