The Springfield Student (vol. 137, no. 8) November 3, 2022
No full text“The Springfield Student” was first published in 1909 in the Association Seminar, an alumni publication. The portion published in the Association Seminar has been digitized and can be seen in The Springfield College Alumni Magazine Collection (http://cdm16122.contentdm.oclc.org/cdm/search/collection/p16122coll3/searchterm/The%20Springfield%20Student/field/spring/mode/all/conn/and/order/date). Generally, “The Springfield Student” includes information about student organizations, athletics, alumni, and events. It also occasionally includes student poetry and fiction, as well as the conclusions of student-designed research. As the publication evolved, “The Springfield Student” began including editorials on world events and popular culture, as well as letters to the editor. Originally, the “Springfield Student” was published monthly from October through June, and its formatting resembled a magazine. In October 1913, the cover illustration simplified to only the title, the date, and the capital letter “S,” but the content and structure remained unchanged. On September 27, 1916, “The Springfield Student” was reformatted to resemble a newspaper: the pages decreased from around thirty to just four, it no longer included a cover, and it became a weekly publication. In the inaugural weekly issue, the editors explained the motivation behind the change: “To sustain the intimate and helpful relations that our Alumni and College should stress we feel that a weekly news publication is the best possible medium. [...] It is the purpose of the Staff to cover all College and Student Association activities in a very live way, reporting athletic contests in brief snappy articles, and giving members of the Alumni Associations space for contributions and newsy items.” During October 1917, in acknowledgement of the limited resources and significantly smaller student body caused by the United States’ involvement in World War I, the “The Springfield Student” ceased its weekly publication and instead published a few pages each month in the “The Association Seminar.” Two years later, October 1919, “The Springfield Student” resumed weekly publication. In this first issue, the editors wrote that they wanted to re-establish the newspaper “as the mouthpiece or spokesman of the student body.

Title IX: Educate & Advocate Webcast: Erin Leeper (August 16, 2022)
No full textThis is the recording of the Title IX: Educate & Educate Webcast with Erin Leeper, the Title IX Coordinator at Springfield College . It was filmed in the Karpovich Room in the Learning Commons on the campus of Springfield College on August 16, 2022. It is about 15 minutes long. This is one of the webcasts created by Dr. Kathy Mangano during her time as a Distinguished Professor of Humanics. Webcasts were dropped on the 9th of every month from September 2022 to April 2023. The webcasts consisted of interviews conducted with a diverse group of individuals (e.g., expert/historian, researcher, sexual assault victim, students, former coach, athletic directors, and a/our Title IX coordinator). The Interviewees provided educational information, told a personal story about how Title IX impacted them, and shared one piece of advice on how to advocate for Title IX.Humanics is a word that has a special meaning in the history and philosophy of Springfield College, as well as in the college’s motto of “Spirit, Mind, and Body.” The Oxford English Dictionary defines Humanics as, “the subject or study of human affairs or relations, especially of the human element of a problem or situation as opposed to the mechanical.” In 1962, Dr. Glenn Olds, President of Springfield College at the time, began to wonder why this name was given to the intended philosophy of the college by Dr. Laurence Locke Doggett, Springfield College’s first full-time president. Olds acknowledged that the practices of the faculty were in large part consistent with the Humanics philosophy, but he believed that a more self-conscious application would improve chances of its continuity and survival. To ensure this, a Distinguished Professor of Humanics position was created at the college, first filled by Dr. Seth Arsenian from 1966-1969. The purpose of this position was to catalyze a renewal of consciousness in the philosophy. This was done by annually mandating the Distinguished Professor of Humanics to give a Humanics lecture on the definition of Humanics and what the concept means to them. Arsenian started this tradition in 1967 with his speech titled, “The Meaning of Humanics,” in which he described the concept as a set of ideas, values, and goals that make our college distinct from other colleges and make commitment and unity toward commonly sought goals possible

No full textThis is a video of a lecture titled "Show Up" which was presented on April 19, 2022 by the 2021-2022 Distinguished Professor of Humanics, Associate Professor of Physical Education and Men's Lacrosse Coach, Keith Bugbee. Interim Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs Mary Ann Coughlin begins the video with an introduction and recognition of past Distinguished Professors of Humanics in attendance. President Mary-Beth Cooper continues with opening remarks and introduces Keith Bugbee. Coach Bugbee's lecture chronicles the "Show Up" concept and its application to the Humanics philosophy of showing up for others. Following Coach Bugbee's presentation, winners of the Humanics scholarships were recognized with the assistance of Emeritus Professor Peter Polito. Mary Ann Coughlin then introduces the 2022-2023 Distinguished Professor of Humanics, Kathy Mangano, who addresses the audience, concluding the video.Humanics is a word that has a special meaning in the history and philosophy of Springfield College, as well as in the college’s motto of “Spirit, Mind, and Body.” The Oxford English Dictionary defines Humanics as, “the subject or study of human affairs or relations, especially of the human element of a problem or situation as opposed to the mechanical.” In 1962, Dr. Glenn Olds, President of Springfield College at the time, began to wonder why this name was given to the intended philosophy of the college by Dr. Laurence Locke Doggett, Springfield College’s first full-time president.
