...sexual orientation, should be recognized for doing so—just like applicants who have overcome other forms of adversity. Ultimately, however, because being gay is a personal matter, more so than being black or being Native American, a blanket affirmative action policy for gay students would oversimplify a complex issue highly dependent upon individual circumstance.This page has a history of supporting diversity. We firmly believe that cultivating a multi-racial, multi-faith, generally inclusive student body from a wide range of geographic and socioeconomic backgrounds benefits a university’s community. We also believe in a student body...
Religion is surely the boldest part of the proposal and its inclusion speaks directly to the overall vision of the report: that general education should be oriented towards global citizenship in a fast-changing and complex world. I look forward to student and faculty discussion in the weeks ahead, but in the meantime let me advance five reasons I think “reason and faith” is a great idea for general education no matter what your field of study, future profession, or creed...
...frame view of RNA polymerase interacting with DNA——a conversion that leads to the construction of proteins necessary for life. Kornberg’s discovery, published in the journal Science in 2001, showed in atomic detail the chemical construction of RNA polymerase, a protein complex made of 12 long chains of amino acids with a mass about 10 times that of average protein. To find the structure of large proteins such as RNA polymerase, scientists have to purify them, crystallize them, and then use x-ray crystallography to visualize the structure, according to Jianhua...
...most complex works, “Sacrifice,” itself consists of 24 different pieces, each a beautiful album leaf covered with a rendering of the Chinese mountainside. To make the leaves, Li Junyi forsook a standard brush for a gridded stamping technique that some have likened to the work of contemporary American artist Chuck Close. Li’s unusually geometric depictions of the landscape present a squarely classical subject through the lens of an entirely new technique. An accompanying label notes that Li created “Sacrifice” to commemorate students who died...
...There is an aviation saying that "pilots always want to learn more about flying - but not too much in one day." That speaks to the inherent danger in being a new pilot: flying is a highly complex endeavor, and the more a pilot flies the better prepared he is when something unexpected pops up. But Lidle was a "low-time" pilot with only 95 hours of solo flying under his belt...
