ICIC 15000 Contemplation: Understanding the Self as Learner

Description: To be integrative, holistic learners, we must learn to listen to our inner voice, and appreciate our unique lived experience for the perspective it brings to bear on how and what we learn. Through the study and practice of different mindfulness exercises, we will build capacity for attention regulation, emotion regulation, cognitive regulation, and compassion. Through weekly journaling students will reflect on how these capacities shape their learning experience and how they know what they know. We end the course with student presentations of their learning and plans for continued use of these new skills for self-knowing and learning. Pass/Fail. 1 credit. No prerequisites. LA. Prerequisites: none

THE POLITICS OF PUNK IN THE AGE OF TRUMP.
Friday, October 26, 2018
5pm at the McHenry Lounge of the Whalen Center for Music, Ithaca College

Rightwing media outlets have dubbed Donald Trump “The Punk Rock President” to validate his rule-breaking crudeness and appeal to white working-class rage. How did this happen? What can we do about it? This presentation will confront the complex and often contradictory politics of punk songs, symbols, and representations of race and sexuality, drawing on Cornell University’s extensive punk rock archive of flyers, zines, posters, t-shirts, and ephemera.

The 60th Annual Cortaca Jug Game between Ithaca College and SUNY Cortland will take place on Saturday, November 10 at 12 p.m. at the SUNY Cortland Stadium Complex.
