Interview with Randy Stoecker, author, Liberating Service Learning and the Rest of Higher Education Civic Engagement
No full textIt’s common for colleges in the U.S. to have service learning programs of one kind or another. These are sometimes criticized as being liberal or even radical endeavors — especially if “social justice” language is employed. But what if these are, in fact, conservative programs at their heart, ones that, in the context of the corporatized university, are furthering the neoliberal project and inhibiting the development of better social welfare policies? Listen to our interview with Randy Stoecker as he discusses his book, Liberating Service Learning and the Rest of Higher Education Civic Engagement (Temple University Press, 2016), for a first-hand critique as well as some thoughts on how we might all better serve our students — and the communities they would engage with

Reconsidering Randy Shilts: examining the reportage of America's AIDS chronicler
No full text2013 Fall.Includes bibliographical references.The role of openly-gay reporter and author Randy Shilts (1951-1994) is examined related to his use of journalistic practices and places him on a continuum of traditional reporting roles as considered in the context of twentieth century philosophers Walter Lippmann and John Dewey. Reporter functions demonstrated by Shilts are examined, including those dictated by expectations of either strong journalistic influence over society and media consumers, or those more aligned with democratic practices where education and participation emphasize strong roles for society and media consumers. Using a biographical approach including 17 primary source interviews of former colleagues, critics, sources and family/friends, the examination of Shilts work as both a reporter and noted author is presented as being heavily influenced by his forthcoming attitudes about disclosure of his sexual orientation from the start of his career and his desire to explain or unpack aspects of gay culture, and ultimately the AIDS crisis, to heterosexual audiences. Careful examination of the posthumous critique of Shilts' work - including his construction of Patient Zero - is undertaken. The study concludes that Shilts fully engaged a Lippmann-esque approach embodied in an authoritarian role for journalism that sought to change the world in which it was offered, and did so perhaps most influentially during the earliest days of the HIV/AIDS pandemic in America

Using Recreation Specialization and Sense of Place to Measure Recreational Users' Motivations Within Boulder's Open Space and Mountain Parks
No full textThis study expands upon the research that has been conducted in regard to place attachment, recreation specialization, and motivation between recreation groups. Onsite surveys (n=989) were collected at nine multi-use trailheads managed by the City of Boulder’s Open Space and Mountain Parks (OSMP) department. A Kruskal-Wallis test followed by a Tukey Honesty Significant Difference Test (Tukey HSD) was used to identify differences in place attachment and recreation specialization between four recreation groups. Results showed that trail runners showed a statistically significant difference in place attachment when compared to hikers, mountain bikers, and other recreation groups. Hikers showed a statistically significant difference in recreation specialization when compared to mountain bikers, trail runners, and other recreation groups. One-way ANOVA tests showed that City of Boulder and Non-Boulder residents showed a statistically significant difference in place attachment but not recreation specialization. The top two motivations for all recreation groups was “For physical fitness” and “To enjoy nature”. With the third highest motivation being “To be close to nature” for hikers, trail runners, and mountain bikers and “For relaxation” for other recreation groups. A Multinomial Logistic Regression found that recreation activity and gender were significant predictors for choosing level of control or catharsis over the physical setting motivational dimension. Additionally, the multinomial model showed that recreation specialization was a significant predictor for choosing level of control over the physical setting motivational dimension. This research can be used to inform OSMP land managers on how to develop management plans that incorporate a better understanding of the differences between recreation groups and their motivations to recreation on OSMP landscapes
