Brandeis University is shifting to a "test flexible" admissions policy. Until now, applicants have been required to submit either SAT or ACT scores. Going ahead, applicants may continue to submit those scores, or may submit other tests or an "enhanced" academic portfolio. Other tests that could be submitted will now include Advanced Placement tests, SAT subject tests or International Baccalaureate exams. Those who do not want to submit standardized tests can submit a sample of analytical writing and an additional teacher recommendation beyond those required already. Brandeis is calling the program a pilot, and will continue to collect traditional standardized test scores -- after admitted applicant decide to enroll -- so the university can study the impact of the new policy.
Andrew Flagel, senior vice president for students and enrollment, said via e-mail that the shift made because "our experience shows that the rigor of a student's program and overall academic performance are the best indicators of a student's ability to take on challenges and excel academically."
Saint Joseph's University, in Pennsylvania, announced last week that it will no longer require applicants for admission to submit SAT or ACT scores. John Haller, associate provost for enrollment management, said that the university has found that high school grades (even without standardized test scores) predict first-year student success. "We know there is a population of students with strong academic records in high school who have standardized test score outcomes below our middle 50 percent range who are likely to be successful and difference makers at Saint Joseph's University," said a statement from Haller. "There is ample statistical evidence demonstrating that standardized test scores can be shaped by environmental and cultural factors that make them an inaccurate predictor of academic success."
In some fields, charging more discourages enrollments, especially of female and minority students, study finds.
Tufts University is attracting attention for one of its new essay prompts for undergraduate admissions, The Boston Globe reported. The prompt: "The ancient Romans started it when they coined the phrase 'Carpe diem.' Jonathan Larson proclaimed 'No day but today!' and most recently, Drake explained You Only Live Once (YOLO). Have you ever seized the day? Lived like there was no tomorrow? Or perhaps you plan to shout YOLO while jumping into something in the future. What does #YOLO mean to you?"
Loyola University New Orleans becomes the second selective college this summer to announce a major enrollment and budget shortfall. Is it a harbinger of things to come, or just a case of bad enrollment strategy?
A new paper in the journal Academic Medicine questions the validity of the rankings by U.S. News & World Report of primary care programs at medical schools. The study noted that while there is some consistency from year to year, the variability among institutions outside of the top 20 "is greater than could be plausibly attributed to actual changes in training quality. These findings raise questions regarding the ranking's validity and usefulness." Robert Morse, who directs the rankings at U.S. News, said he hadn't seen the research and would need to study it before commenting.
The Supreme Court just kicked the latest affirmative action case (Fisher v. University of Texas), back down to an appeals court, effectively avoiding the big issues of race and class in America – at least for now. Abigail Fisher claimed that the University of Texas at Austin violated her rights by considering race in its admissions process. Fisher is a white woman who was not admitted to the University in 2008.
The Supreme Court claims that the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit did not subject the Fisher case to the appropriate standards, in particular: Are the means for ensuring campus diversity narrowly tailored to that goal? And can the university achieve diversity via mechanisms that do not require racial classifications?
Despite the decision to bounce the case back, interesting undertones can be gleaned from Justice Anthony Kennedy's 7-1 majority opinion, and particularly the two concurring statements from Justices Clarence Thomas and Antonin Scalia. Thomas and Scalia took the opportunity to add their distaste for the entire idea that universities are entitled to use racial considerations in composing their communities. Justice Thomas asserted that "a state's use of race in higher education admissions decisions is categorically prohibited by the Equal Protection Clause."
The rejection of affirmative action logic, found in Thomas and Scalia, was foreshadowed by Justice Roberts's earlier slogan, from a 2007 decision, "the way to stop discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of
race." Foes of affirmative action, including some conservative members of the court, seem convinced that we're now living in a post-racial society, and the policy ameliorations of the past have become the reverse discriminations of today.
One of Ronald Dworkin's last articles (before his death in February) decried the conservative rejection of affirmative action, predicting that the court would probably overturn the 2003 Grutter v. Bollinger decision, which allowed for race considerations in admissions. That may still happen, but not yet.
Dworkin suggested that affirmative action is no more discriminatory than other preferential forms of college admission, including preference for good athletes where universities have strong athletic programs. Institutions are entitled to have reasonable preferences -- higher scoring on standardized tests, for example, puts lower-scoring individuals at a disadvantage. As Dworkin put it, "the Constitution does not prevent regulative legislation that gives advantage to some over
others – to optometrists over oculists, for example – when the legislation serves a 'rational' purpose that reflects no prejudice or favoritism." But this last clause was precisely the sticking point, since Abigail Fisher's case asserted that race consideration in Texas admissions violated her constitutional rights with prejudiced policy. Dworkin found it absurd that the university could be interpreted as prejudiced against white students, since it is overwhelmingly white. Dworkin also dismissed any white resentment (for being passed over), suggesting that the wider moral perspective revealed rational preferences in the affirmative action policy, not just favoritism. He voiced the Left's position that the higher social good of liberal tolerance is the rational grounding that renders resentments unjustified.
This underlying rational aspect of race consideration is articulated in Sandra Day O'Connor's 2003 Grutter v. Bollinger endorsement of the Court's earlier claim that student body diversity is a compelling state interest and justifies the use of race in university admissions. The moral reasoning is that greater campus diversity breaks stereotypes and xenophobia, and students will emerge from these experiences with greater tolerance and less prejudice.
Three important objections can be raised against affirmative action logic, and last month's Court ruling expresses some of these critiques in its decision. First, this specific demarcation of rational preferential treatment from regular garden-variety discrimination seems to beg the question. The general point – that rational preferences can be positive and defensible – is not the issue. But this specific designation of good and bad preference is the aspect that needs greater warrant.
Using this logic, for example, Dworkin argued that it is not enough to get black students on campus in Texas – a task easily accomplished by an existing law that takes the top 10 percent of Texas high school students and therefore draws smart, poor, black students from geographically black high schools. Judge Alito suggested, while hearing the case, that this 10 percent rule sufficiently ensures the sought-after student diversity. But supporters of affirmative action, like Dworkin, argued that this would not be the right sort of diversity, because it would feed white stereotypes that blacks are poor. Supporters of affirmative action in Texas argued that the university should be encouraged to cherry-pick black students from middle- and upper-class backgrounds in order to break campus stereotypes.
Such fine-grained optimization of diversity is a multiple-edged sword for the state to legislate. For one thing, it's hard to see why this cherry-picking isn't already redundant to the existing mechanism of merit admissions, because if a smart black student is from a middle-class family then she already has many of the supportive ingredients to be selected by the institution like every other middle-class student. For this reason, a racial preference may fail the legal strict scrutiny requirement that it be the "least restrictive means" for achieving its goal.
Moreover, the very criterion of "breaking stereotypes" (as rational justification) is a sticky wicket, because it radically opens the floodgates of equally reasonable complaints. Latinos in every economic class will need to be cherry-picked, as will Asians and every other group. If there are not enough gays and lesbians on campus to defuse homophobia, institutions will need to protect slots for gays and lesbians in every economic and racial category. Transgender students will not just need representation, but representation from different economic backgrounds. And Asians who are bad at math and Jews who prefer football to studying will need special recruitment, in order to break down those pernicious widespread
stereotypes on campus. In short, "breaking stereotypes" is an over-inclusive criterion, and it seems to fail the strict scrutiny expectation that a law or policy be "narrowly tailored" to achieve its goal or interest.
Secondly, Dworkin and other supporters think it's obvious that the university is not guilty of black favoritism, because the institution remains so demographically white. But this ignores the possibility that lefty academics (otherwise known as academics) could be prejudicially biased in favor of minority students, even when they are not themselves minorities. Reverse discrimination can be ideologically motivated. I take it this is a major critique of academe, from the Right – namely, the academy's general obsession with the subaltern.
White guilt is stronger in the academy than in any other arena of American culture, so it's not impossible that reverse discrimination has systemic reach in this narrow domain. One way to assess this possibility is to measure the number
of black applicants against the number of blacks admitted. Similar numbers there might be suggestive of institutional reverse discrimination, and this was essentially Justice Rehnnquist's claim in his dissent for Grutter v. Bollinger. Moreover, Rehnquist argued, this bias was more troubling in the University of Michigan Law School case (Grutter), because the overall number of Latinos admitted from 1995-2000 was only half that of African Americans. The criterion of diversity, therefore, is not producing anything like a representational spread of U.S. demographics. Of course, none of this may indicate favoritism per se, but just a broken haphazard system that's too unorganized to even have an agenda.
That's not exactly good news either.
Thirdly, we have come a long way from the original purpose of affirmative action, if the conversion of on-campus white psyches is the new rational justification. President Johnson's policy started as a legitimate leg-up for black people – a boost for opportunity. But the newer logic holds that affirmative action will better-ensure that white people will think better thoughts about people of color. This moral argument appears to underpin the Supreme Court's logic in Grutter v. Bollinger, where Justice O'Connor argued that race preference policies would be a necessary evil for only another 15 years (25 years from the original opinion).
When President Johnson first instituted affirmative action, one of the underlying purposes was reparation to the descendants of former slaves, many of whom were victims of Jim Crow bigotry. African Americans who felt the sting of racism directly were helped by the policy. The goal of increased diversity, in schools and the workplace, was intimately connected to this reparation function of affirmative action, but that is no longer the case. In today's America, many of the people who benefit from diversity policies are not disadvantaged African Americans, but Latinos, Indians, Africans, Vietnamese, Iranians, Pakistanis, Chinese, Koreans, and so on. While many of these groups have faced terrible hardships, they have not been enslaved with the approval of the United States.
We're not living in a post-racial age, in the sense that we all see past skin color, speech accents and cultural differences. But we are living in a post black-and-white era of discrimination, in the sense that we now have many additional kinds of discrimination (brought on by melting pot trends). Prejudice is not as uniform as it used to be, and now we have micro-prejudices that cannot be legislated away; Puerto Rican Americans stereotype Mexican Americans, who turn around and stereotype African Americans, who in turn stereotype Korean Americans, who then stereotype Japanese Americans, who stereotype Chinese Americans, who tend to stereotype Pakistani Americans, who stereotype Indian Americans, and so on.
Just after the civil rights era, huge immigration spikes started for Asian and Latin American populations. In the 1960s most immigrants came from Europe, so the color question remained acute. Prejudice really was more of a black-and-white issue at that time. But starting in the 1970s there has been a huge influx of color. In 1960, only 9 percent of immigrants were Latin American and 5 percent were Asian. Compare that with 2011 immigration, when 52 percent were Latin American and 28 percent Asian. The color question has changed in America and this has had implications for the logic of affirmative action.
The "diversity argument" that Justice O'Connor proffered in Grutter will probably not survive a substantial challenge because it tries to catch a specific needy demographic – African Americans – with a wide net that also benefits many non-African Americans of color. It would have been better to keep the argument focused on reparation for descendants of slaves, because that smaller net captures the right demographic group. But this argument is problematic for other reasons, namely the historical distance between today's African-American students and slavery. Switching to an economic criterion for preferential treatment results in two improvements: poor kids get into elite schools and poor minorities are captured within the criterion. But using only the economic criterion creates the stereotyping problems that Dworkin was worried about -- namely, only poor African Americans will be represented on campus.
What O'Connor should have argued was not that "diversity" policies need 25 more years of legal protection (her actual argument), but slavery reparation needs those years of legal protection. That would have been the mechanism needed to keep African Americans inside the affirmative action cohort and other people of color outside the cohort. One wonders, however, how compelling that argument sounds to contemporary American ears, especially when we have a black president in office.
Many middle-class African Americans feel that we've outgrown affirmative action. President Obama, for example, has stated that his own privileged daughters don't deserve affirmative action preferences. Instead, he argues, low-income students of all races should be given preferential treatment. At the same time, his Department of Justice supported the race-based admissions in the University of Texas case.
When Asians score their way into all the slots at the good colleges, will whites argue that they were discriminated against? Actually, Asian scholastic excellence is already so powerful that Asians have to be discriminated against to keep them from overpopulating competitive programs. As recounted by William Chase in an article in The American Scholar, a Princeton University study analyzed the records of more than 100,000 applicants to three highly selective private universities. "They found that being an African American candidate was worth, on average, an additional 230 SAT points on the 1600-point scale and that being Hispanic was worth an additional 185 points, but that being an Asian-American candidate warranted the loss, on average, of 50 SAT points."
The time has come, I submit, for us to embrace a post-affirmative action future. There may be very good arguments for maintaining preferential treatment for African Americans specifically, but those arguments will probably need definitive detachment from current affirmative action logic. Since African Americans continue to be underrepresented in today's universities – despite all-time-high representation of nonwhite students – some policies should probably return to the language and logic of reparation (rather than just equal opportunity). This battle is still fightable and winnable, but it will need to start afresh.
As far as overall diversity goes, we might bite the bullet and assert – independent of the affirmative action tradition – that we want a pluralistic campus that reflects our national melting pot. To that end, we might create a quota lottery that replicates, on campus, the same racial demographics of the whole nation (white = 75 percent, Latino = 15 percent, black = 12 percent, Asian = 5 percent, and so on). But the problem here is now obvious. We would need to actively restrain one of the most impressive academic racial groups (Asians) in order to force them to conform to their tiny demographic percentage. This seems both unethical and unwise.
Whatever remains of the diversity argument and the affirmative action mechanisms should be rerouted entirely and enlisted to address the bigger challenge of our time, economic disparity. Ensuring access to poor students of every race is not only pressing, but has the added benefit of being solvable by legislative means. Now that the Court has remanded the case, things will be status quo for the time being. But the demand for strict scrutiny here seems like a technical dodge, and won't stave off the changing tides of American social justice.
Stephen T. Asma is professor of philosophy at Columbia College Chicago. He is the author of seven books, including Against Fairness (University of Chicago Press), On Monsters: an Unnatural History of Our Worst Fears (Oxford University Press) and The Gods Drink Whiskey (HarperOne).
Law school at Washington University St. Louis offered "exploding" scholarships to top applicants. As applications decline, law schools are under greater pressure than ever to keep the credentials of incoming classes high.
Last month the U.S. Supreme Court announced its ruling in Fisher v. University of Texas, reiterating that race-conscious college admissions policies are subject to "strict scrutiny" – a rigorous legal standard. Writing the opinion for a 7-1 majority, Justice Anthony Kennedy stated that when universities use race-based affirmative action, the courts "must ultimately be satisfied that no workable race-neutral alternatives would produce the educational benefits of diversity."
In fact, the issue seems far from settled. Fisher will be reconsidered by the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, and the Supreme Court agreed to hear an additional case this fall – Schuette v. Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action – related to affirmative action in Michigan. At issue in Schuette is the constitutionality of statewide bans (usually enacted via popular referendum) on using race in admissions or employment. Because popular support for traditional, race-based preferences has dwindled over the past decade, and Fisher and Schuette are still in play, many Court observers suspect race-based affirmative action will be curtailed significantly if not struck down entirely. If that happens, it seems reasonable to think diversity at our nation's selective institutions of higher education will be radically diminished.
But that's by no means inevitable. Many states have already faced prohibitions on race-conscious admissions, and have developed innovative admissions strategies to maintain and even increase diversity at their flagship institutions. In some cases, they've also managed to increase an even more underrepresented population on campus – poor students.
That's what happened in 2008, when Colorado faced a ballot initiative seeking to prohibit consideration of race in college admissions. In response, the University of Colorado Boulder (CU) developed a class-based affirmative action system that would serve the university's interest in admitting a broadly diverse class while complying with the proposed ban on race-conscious admissions. Even though the initiative did not pass, CU went ahead and enhanced its admissions process to give additional consideration to disadvantaged applicants. In 2011, when this class-based system was fully used for the first time, CU enrolled the most socioeconomically and racially diverse freshman class in its history.
So how did CU do it?
The university developed two statistical measures, which its admissions officers now use to identify not only those applicants who have faced adversity, but also those who have demonstrated extraordinary academic achievement in light of their circumstances. The first measure – the "Disadvantage Index" – essentially tells us how an applicant's socioeconomic background has impacted his or her chances of enrolling in college. The second measure – the "Overachievement Index" – tells us how an applicant's high school academic credentials (e.g., SAT or ACT scores) compare to those of students with similar backgrounds. Ultimately, the disadvantaged and overachieving applicants identified by these indexes receive a leg up in the admissions process.
Controlled experiments, summarized in an upcoming issue of Harvard Law & Policy Review, showed promising results. First, using the race-neutral indexes to replace race-conscious admissions increased acceptance rates not only for economically disadvantaged applicants, but also for racial minorities. Moreover, analyses suggest some "class-based admits" – those who wouldn't be accepted without a class-conscious admissions policy – may fare well in college. Specifically, those identified by the Overachievement Index are predicted to earn higher grades and graduate at higher rates than typical CU undergraduates.
The unprecedented diversity of the freshman class of 2011 seems to validate the experimental findings, but to be fair, many factors outside admissions policy can influence campus diversity. At CU, for example, expanded recruitment, outreach, and student retention efforts deserve much of the credit. Class-based affirmative action cannot sustain socioeconomic and racial diversity on its own; universities need comprehensive strategies that not only grant additional consideration to disadvantaged applicants during the admissions process, but also encourage them to apply in the first place and support their academic development once they've arrived on campus. In their report "A Better Affirmative Action," Richard Kahlenberg and Halley Potter document this sort of thoughtful planning in nine states where race-conscious admissions have already been banned.
Through coordinated recruiting and outreach and carefully designed admissions policies, universities in most of those states have boosted the socioeconomic and racial diversity of incoming classes. Stanford economist Caroline Hoxby has uncovered another promising approach – personalized recruitment materials – that may substantially increase college access for thousands of high-achieving, low-income students who aren't applying to selective colleges. This research has not gone unnoticed. In recent months, we've seen a rising tide of calls from across the ideological spectrum to seriously pursue class-based affirmative action, at a time when enthusiasm for race-based preferences seems to be waning.
The point here is not that universities should revamp their recruitment materials or adopt the Disadvantage and Overachievement Indexes and expect a seamless transition away from race-conscious admissions. Rather, the point is that social scientists have been hard at work for quite some time developing, refining, and studying class-conscious strategies that can advance the goals and social purposes of the universities that use them. The University of Colorado recognized the value in this line of research, and took proactive steps to support campus diversity by considering class in its admissions process.
Given last month's Fisher ruling and the Schuette decision to come, other university administrators should follow suit. Sooner would probably be better, to avoid the hasty adoption of class-based policies in the scramble of legal uncertainty. As Greg Roberts, the dean of admission at the University of Virginia, recently pointed out, "If there are changes to how we define diversity then I expect schools will really work hard at identifying low-income students." For those of us who care deeply about equal opportunity and social justice, class-conscious admissions policies offer unique promise: They focus our attention on socioeconomic integration, and may open new pathways to higher education for students who have traditionally faced economic, social, and institutional barriers.
Matthew Gaertner worked with the University of Colorado Boulder office of admissions to create these class-based admissions indexes. He is currently a research scientist in the Center for College & Career at Pearson.
The University of California has abandoned plans for large, widespread increases in graduate and professional school tuition, The Los Angeles Times reported. The original plan would have resulted in major increases for about 14,000 students. Now only about 800 students, primarily in nursing, will be affected. And those who still face an increase would see costs go up by about $619 a year, not the $2,700 originally planned. Governor Jerry Brown had strongly opposed the originally planned increases.

Spanish Football Expert & Columnist @GuillemBalague
A Pep up for Wenger
Guillem Balague explains why he can see Pep Guardiola managing in England, possibly at Arsenal.
Last Updated: 04/04/10 2:58am
We're set for another week of cracking action in La Liga, so who better to look ahead to the four live games on Sky Sports than our Spanish football expert Guillem Balague.
If you've got a question for Guillem, send it in here.
Barcelona v Athletic Bilbao
Sevilla v Tenerife
Racing v Real Madrid
Atletico Madrid v Deportivo
Barcelona v Athletic Bilbao
7pm, Sat, Sky Sports 4
Barcelona played unbelievably well in the first half of Wednesday's Champions League game at Arsenal. That 45 minutes was quite possibly the best half of football in the club's history! It proved that their poor performances in the first half against Mallorca, Tenerife, Osasuna were just a mental issue and highlighted the difficulty of building on the successes of the previous season. There is a feeling at the club that at times the players are dwelling on what they have achieved rather than trying to add to it; that's true to an extent because there are more distractions around. There are more advertisements, more interviews to do and the team spirit loses a bit as a result. Pepe Guardiola's challenge, therefore, is to get everybody focused on what the club is trying to achieve - namely winning everything they can. This should be a great game to watch because Athletic Bilbao are having a great season. The two players up front - Toquero (who is more than just a running, hard working striker) and Llorente (who is in magnificent form and pushing hard for a World Cup place) - will be wonderful to watch against a Barcelona side that might, just might deploy Milito and Marquez at the back in preparation for the second leg against Arsenal. I'm not saying Pep will do that but it may be a possibility if he wants to see how his side will cope without Pique and Puyol, who will miss the Champions League game.
Sevilla v Tenerife
9pm, Sat, Sky Sports 4
The sacking of Manolo Jimenez has been unfair because Sevilla knew things that Manolo couldn't say in public. They should have been more patient with him and not give in to the pressure from fans and media alike so quickly. As the club has had so many injuries and is in three competitions there has been little time to train properly. The emphasis instead has been on recuperation whereas in an ideal world players get their form and fitness levels back by training and playing. It's taking much longer than it should for all the players to be sharp and on form. In a way they are dying as a result of their own success, if you like. The club knew that but wouldn't let Manolo explain it. They should have allowed him to finish the season. The pressure is on new manager Antonio Álvarez because Tenerife's away form is poor to say the least. Let's see if he's managed to give the side a mental spark.
Racing v Real Madrid
6pm, Sun, Sky Sports HD1 & SS1
This game is a potential banana skin for Real Madrid because Sergio Ramos and Xabi Alonso have picked up yellow cards that rule them out of this game. The plus side is they will be able to play against Barcelona next week. All eyes will be on Sergio Canales, who has signed for Real Madrid already and will be desperate to prove what he can do against his future employers. After he signed two months ago he was mentally confused - there were too many interviews and other things going on - and his performances dipped a bit but he is back to form so it will be great to see him up against what is another make-shift Real Madrid defence.
Atletico Madrid v DeportivoAtletico are definitely on their legs - they are still in the Cup, the Europa League and with La Liga matches on top of that they are playing more games than most other sides. They appear to have given up on the league and seem intent on getting back into Europe next season via the other two routes. Deportivo could take advantage of that but they are a team that is lacking in confidence and ambition. They recognise the momentum is not with them and that gives Atletico the perfect opportunity to take advantage.

Hello Guillem. Before Guardiola signed the contract extension with Barcelona recently, I remember you said that he had offers from several clubs. Could you reveal which clubs were interested in him? Do you see Guardiola as one of the candidates when Sir Alex eventually retires? Thanks, Rob, Manchester
GUILLEM REPLIES: Rob, I'm firmly of the view that Pep Guardiola will want to move to England once he leaves Barcelona. I don't see him so much as Sir Alex's replacement, although Sir Alex did want to sign him a year before he left Barcelona. Guardiola wanted to wait a year and by that time Sir Alex didn't want to follow up his earlier interest. They do admire each other, of course, and I'm sure Pep's name will be mentioned again when Sir Alex retires. The problem is that Sir Alex's shadow over the club is so huge that it will be a big job to take. I see Pep more at Arsenal where Arsene Wenger could take a director of football role but that would only be in the mid-term future. Guardiola will stay in Barcelona for another year. After that I'd put a big question mark against his future because I don't think even he knows what he is going to do.
Hi Guillem, Atletico Madrid have arguably Spain's top two young goalkeepers in Sergio Asenjo and David De Gea and I wanted to know who you think has the best attributes and in the long run Iker Casillas replacement for the national team? Also surely one would have to move on to progress, with it looking like it would be De Gea as he was the second choice until the weekend. Recently Manchester United have been linked to him as a potential replacement for Edwin Van Der Sar and I was wondering whether first of all you thought a move could happen and then if yes, does De Gea have what it takes to succeed at the top level in England? Thanks again, Shane Farrington, Tadworth
GUILLEM REPLIES: You're spot on about the potential of both players, Shane. De Gea will stay at Atletico Madrid now. He had the opportunity to go to Wigan but decided not to at the last minute and as a result is the club's third-choice goalkeeper. Now he is first choice. I can see Sergio Asenjo signing for Barcelona soon, perhaps, as a second goalkeeper or maybe Real Madrid if Dudek goes (which I think he will, by the way). He could do that and take a couple of steps back or go to a team where he will play regularly. If Diego Lopez goes to England, there may well be an opening at Villarreal. Personally, I think De Gea could be as good as Van der Sar and I can see him challenging for Spain's No 1 shirt in three or four years. I don't see him going to Manchester United, though.
Why will Unai Emery's contract not be renewed at Valencia? They are third with the usual two above them, what did the board expect? Didn't they learn anything from the Koeman era? If it ain't broke don't fix it. Dj Fearross
GUILLEM REPLIES: This is a question I ask myself too! I think Valencia should keep Emery but I hear that is not their intention. That opinion may change if he wins the Europa League but the impression is that he is not developing the team as much as he should. That's unfair as far as I'm concerned, but that's the feeling within the club. It stems back to the fact he wasn't the number one choice for the job and the club feels he doesn't have the authority to continue in the role. I must stress again how unfair I think it is. If given the right backing and opportunity, I'm convinced Emery could take this club forward.

Logbooks and Journals
Welcome to the general citation search page for the logbook and journal collection of the New Bedford Whaling Museum Research Library. The Museum's logbook and journal database has been recently updated and can be downloaded (an excel spreadsheet) by clicking on the the text link. This database is not set up for detailed subject searches. However, subject searches are possible through the Search Library page of the Museum's website.
There are three separate collections held in this Library, "KWM," "ODHS," and "NBW." Please note that logbook or journal numbers without a prefix are assumed to be "KWM" or from the Kendall Whaling Museum logbook and journal collection held at the New Bedford Whaling Museum since 2001.
For the purposes of Interlibrary Loan of microfilm reels it is important to note whether or not there is a prefix for the logbook number in which you are interested. In many cases multiple holdings for the same voyage are to be found in either collection. Microfilm reels are available on Interlibrary Loan with the appropriate form from your local or university library, one reel per loan at the cost of $15.00 per reel. Please contact email@example.com with questions or comments about access or material content, and please contact Senior Maritime Historian Michael P. Dyer or Librarian Mark Procknik to arrange an Interlibrary Loan.
Entries in a whaling logbook or journal usually follow some common patterns, and once you know what to look for it is a lot easier to decipher what you read. An Introduction to Whaling Logbooks and Journals is a detailed explanation of the things that are found in typical whaling logbook or journal entries.
Digitized Logbooks
Some logbooks in the Library's collection have been digitized, but not every logbook in the Library's vast collection is available in a digital version. If you would like to see a digital copy of one of the Library's logbooks, please contact Mark Procknik for further details.
The following logbooks have been digitized with funds provided by the North Pacific Research Board, secured through the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration:
Library-based digitization is achieved through in-house capabilities in addition to the Museum's association with the Digital Commonwealth.

You Are Chopsticks
People see you as exotic, unusual, and even a bit intimidating.
You are a difficult person to figure out.
In truth, you try to live a very simple life.
But most people are too frenzied to recognize the beauty of your simplicity.

Mar 29, 2015This is one of the most boring, dull, annoying and most unnecessary live action remakes of all time. Honestly, who wants to watch some trashy remake when they can watch the original heartwarming animated classic. There's a good Cruella performance but apart from that all I can say is. Why?
Nov 17, 2014Despite a superb performance from Glenn Close as Cruella de Vil 101 Dalmatians never achieves more than any other mid-level Disney film like Beethoven. It's far from terrible but almost everything in it has been seen before and you'd be much better off watching the more entertaining cartoon version.
Apr 27, 2014This movie is a classic! Maybe I am the only one who actually prefers this version to the animated one, but I am a Disney lover and think this one has more depth. Glenn Close was perfect casting for Cruella De Vil. She is actually evil, and really brings the character to life. Plus the dogs are so much cuter in real life!
Mar 22, 2014101 Dalmatians was a heartwarming, enjoyable Disney movie in 1961. This version doesn't smother the name, but it takes a more sinister angle that is trying to be more than it is. Perhaps Cruella's antics just didn't translate well from animation to live action.
Jul 16, 2013A very entertaining film that has some hilarious stuff to share and some great acting (especially from Glenn Close). Overall, the film is very entertaining and it sticks to the Disney's animated film very well. I really enjoy this film.
Mar 16, 2013This, for me, is truly something of a unique film. It has all the corniness and cheap slapstick of a plethora of other comedies cashing in on popular trends which in this case, was "Home Alone" while otherwise being painfully sappy. Yet, for some reason, "101 Dalmatians" doesn't bother me when it's corny. And I think it's because it's so thoroughly and consistently corny that you justThis, for me, is truly something of a unique film. It has all the corniness and cheap slapstick of a plethora of other comedies cashing in on popular trends which in this case, was "Home Alone" while otherwise being painfully sappy. Yet, for some reason, "101 Dalmatians" doesn't bother me when it's corny. And I think it's because it's so thoroughly and consistently corny that you just end up buying into this strange pseudo-cartoon world they build. It knows how silly it is and just enjoys itself nonetheless, and the result is a movie you really just can't help but like. It's so innocent and fluffed with lighthearted chuckle that it's very hard to call it unenjoyable, no matter how bad one might consider it. And of course, you have Glenn Close turning in a gleefully over-the-top performance as Cruella DeVil who, by the way, turns everything she touches into some awesome piece of art direction and an affectionately charming and humorous Hugh Laurie as one of her bumbling dognappers. This was never meant to be taken seriously. That's clear from the start. And I honestly have to call it a guilty pleasure.… Expand
Oct 3, 2011I know that this film is an epic, but I will not be influenced by this or I will base my critique on the fact that a film is epic or not. I actually think the movie a big failure in cinematic terms. But for watching with family at times like Christmas or Easter is perfect, and the kids do not dislike.
FaiKJan 28, 2007i just like the part that all the dogs barks to send news about the puppies
What's funny in cartoons is not always funny in live action, and some of the dunkings in unsavory substances left me less than amused.
Even children, who will be enthralled by all the puppies, may have a hard time not fidgeting for protracted portions of the running time.
Though this film's considerable warmth derives from dalmatian puppies and other animals who take charge of their fates, Close steals the show.

Select Local Merchants
Jamba Juice - SFRead MoreWith more than 700 locations, Jamba Juice proves to the masses that nutrition can be speedy and delicious. Since the beginning, the company's product philosophy has revolved around choosing whole fruits and other natural ingredients over artificial flavorings, sweeteners, and preservatives. The menu is completely free of high-fructose corn syrup and trans fats, and it offers additional accommodations for vegan and gluten-free diets. Blended drinks dominate the menu, with options including fruit refreshers—made with naturally hydrating, electrolytic coconut water—and pre-boosted smoothies that can fill nutritional gaps with infusions of protein, immunity boosters, or antioxidants that neutralize accidentally swallowed pool water.

Vertuccio FarmsRead MoreIt begins with a flood. Vertuccio's farmers overrun their cornfield with water, then till and bulldoze the soil until it's swampy enough to pull shoes right off of feet. It's not an attempt to catch pumpkin thieves, but rather, the first step of the Farm Fun Mud Run. When they arrive for the race, participants of all ages face 7 acres of muddy mayhem, peppered with obstacles like walls, cargo nets, tubes, and balance beams. As a family-friendly event, competitive attitudes should be left at home with the soap?there are no timers or awards for the racer who eats the most mud. Afterward, parents and children can hose off and head over to the kids area, where the good times continue with train rides, slides, and picnics.4011 South Power RoadMesa, AZ US
De La Fe ChiropracticRead MoreWhen it comes to treating injuries, Doctor of Chiropractic Scott De La Fe has seen it all. De La Fe joined the Army after high school, serving as an airborne paramedic for the 27th Engineer Battalion at Fort Brag and interning with emergency medevac crews, orthopedic surgeons, and neurologists. While earning his undergraduate and doctor of chiropractic degrees, he worked as an emergency technician at a community hospital, then as a sports-rehabilitation trainer and the manager of a private rehabilitation center. Today, he combines his extensive medical experience with regular attendance at industry seminars to keep up with the latest techniques and draws from his own experience as a longtime competitive athlete to treat sports injuries sustained on the professional, recreational, and high-school circuits. In addition to adjustments, Dr. De La Fe often incorporates innovative therapeutic treatments including computerized spinal decompression, cold-laser and ultrasonic therapies, and electrical muscle stimulation. In order to help patients remain as healthy as possible, he also designs custom weight-loss and detoxification programs, which can have the added benefit of reducing stress on the lower back and increasing the expected lifespan of a beloved home trampoline.3048 East Baseline RoadMesa, AZ US
Target Portrait StudioRead MoreTarget Portrait Studios are operated by professional photographers who aim to help you capture special moments. The studios can be decorated for most any type of shoot, whether you're celebrating a mom-to-be, a graduation, or an upcoming holiday. Subjects also have the opportunity to choose their own backdrops or props, and they can even bring in their favorite toy or invisible friend. The customization doesn't end with the shoot, though—digital files can be personalized with borders, designs, and quotes and then printed in a variety of sizes.2151 N Power Rd.Mesa, AZ US
A Plus Chiropractic CareRead MoreDoctor of chiropractic Howard D. Fern, a chiropractor with more than 19 years of experience, works to keep patients at A Plus Chiropractic Care in good health with holistic treatments. He and his staff realign spines, relieve back pain with relaxing massages, and treat issues such as sinus congestion and insomnia with needle-free acupuncture. Dr. Fern is also a certified health coach for Take Shape For Life and can help patients to lose weight with meal replacements.3048 E. Baseline Rd. Suite 130, Ste 130Mesa, AZ US
Sunshine Convenience MartRead MoreIn 1984, Sunshine Convenience Mart founder Harry Fong established his business on the pillars of friendly service and speedy, convenient access. Today, the store is minded by Harry's son, Chris, whose head is full of memories of his father awakening him at the crack of dawn to get ready for work. Guests can ogle the well-stocked shelves brimming with domestic and imported microbrews, liquors, and snacks, or pull up to the handy drive-thru window to pick up cups, soda, and ice without leaving their car or dismounting their hovercraft.2531 E University DrTempe, AZ US
