No full textKit Ellenbogen remembers immigrating to America in 1941 and choosing a new name, Kit; seeking out a small college at a suitable distance from her home in New York City; a sense of comfort when visiting Bard that was absent from her visit to Vassar; being part of the first decade of women accepted to Bard; living in Potter for two years before transferring to South Hall; foregoing her study abroad experience in Europe at the start of the Korean War; finding academic passion and influence outside of the psychology department; finding her own voice in the classroom with the support of Irma Brandeis while studying Anna Karenina; learning to value her own opinions over critical sources; studying music composition with Clair Leonard. She recalls crafting a new Constitution for Bard while studying community government and recognizing that project as the acorn of her decision to go to law school at age 54. She reflects on what it means to be a Bardian sixty years on.https://digitalcommons.bard.edu/oral_hist/1009/thumbnail.jp

Anthony Ellenbogen, \u2782 (BardCorps)
No full textEllenbogen recalls coming to Bard as a photography major and leaving with a degree in economics; taking high level math classes along with art classes; playing the clarinet in Luis Garcia Renart\u27s Performance class; meeting his wife Kristina Mickelson, \u2783; becoming friends with Dick Wiles and Joe Morreale in the Economics Department; not \u27fitting the bill\u27 of the typical Bard student; playing softball as the founder and captain of the Master Batters; working part time as an economics tutor, and for B&G; the library as the best place on campus to take naps; and very heavy smoking on campus. He has childhood memories of visiting campus with his mother Kit Ellenbogen, \u2752; the Blithewood pool with the waterfall and mosquitos the \u27size of sparrows\u27; free orange soda at Blithewood picnics. He lived on campus for four years; and recalls a fire in his dorm, which was one of the Ravines. He regrets that there was no serious gym or student center, and that the small size of the school meant that a student\u27s interest in a particular field was dependent on hitting it off with the personality of the department head. He has come to appreciate Leon Botstein and everything that Bard has become because of him. Overall, Bard was the \u27right fit.\u27https://digitalcommons.bard.edu/oral_hist/1008/thumbnail.jp

Frances and Gustave Kauders family collection 1829-2001 1925-1942
No full textThe Frances and Gustave Kauders family collection holds the papers of this couple, as well as of members of the Kauders family, and correspondence from the Schostal family. Topics found in the collection include the immigration of Frances (Franziska) and Gustave (Gustav) Kauders, some details of their early lives as expressed in family correspondence, and the failed emigration and subsequent deportation of members of the Schostal family. The collection includes family correspondence, official and educational documents, and correspondence with official agencies regarding immigration and restitution with related documentation.Franziska Schostal was born in Brünn (today Brno, Czech Republic) on November 20, 1904, the daughter of Otto Schostal and his wife Paula (also called Pauline, née Wildner). She had an older brother, Karl. Otto Schostal was proprietor of Schostal and Mendl, a banking and commission business.Gustav Kauders was born October 3, 1894 in Vienna to Siegmund Kauders and his wife Regine (née Schlesinger). Siegmund Kauders had founded a wine wholesale business in Vienna in 1868 and was an imperial councilor, as well as a recipient of the Order of Franz Joseph's Knight's Cross. After finishing his secondary education, Gustav Kauders studied at trade school and took 3 semesters of legal studies at the University of Vienna. With the permission of his father, he volunteered for the Austrian military in 1913 as an artillery officer on the Italian front and achieved the rank of Oberleutnant, with eight commendations. After the war he worked in his father's wine wholesale firm, responsible for the export and import of wine to other European countries, including frequent travel in this capacity.In 1921 Franziska Schostal married Gustav Kauders; they had three children, Heinz (later Henry), Georg (later George), and Hanna (later Hannah). In December 1938 they traveled to Italy, and by 1939 the family were living in Tel Aviv. After they received their affidavits for American visas they traveled to the United States via Baghdad and Bombay. By 1941 the family was living in the Forest Hills neighborhood of Queens, New York. Franziska and Gustav became American citizens in 1946; their names were Americanized to Frances and Gustave Kauders.Finding aid available onlineSee also the oral history interview with Hannak Kit Ellenbogen, AHC 4005.Processeddigitize

KIT somatic mutations and immunohistochemical expression in canine oral melanoma
No full textCanine oral melanoma (COM) is an aggressive neoplasm with a low response to therapies, sharing similarities with human mucosal melanomas. In the latter, significant alterations of the proto-oncogene KIT have been shown, while in COMs only its exon 11 has been adequately investigated. In this study, 14 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded COMs were selected considering the following inclusion criteria: unequivocal diagnosis, presence of healthy tissue, and a known amplification status of the gene KIT (seven samples affected and seven non-affected by amplification). The DNA was extracted and KIT target exons 13, 17, and 18 were amplified by PCR and sequenced. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) for KIT and Ki67 was performed, and a quantitative index was calculated for each protein. PCR amplification and sequencing was successful in 97.62% of cases, and no single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was detected in any of the exons examined, similarly to exon 11 in other studies. The immunolabeling of KIT was positive in 84.6% of the samples with a mean value of 3.1 cells in positive cases, yet there was no correlation with aberration status. Our findings confirm the hypothesis that SNPs are not a frequent event in KIT activation in COMs, with the pathway activation relying mainly on amplification
Senior tool kit
Get PDFabstract: In an effort to educate older adults we have created this tool kit. Seniors are at risk to become victims of theft, fraud, and are particularly vulnerable to scams. This kit will help you have the tools needed to be well-informed because you could encounter a scam on the phone, through the mail, via computer or even when someone you do not know knocks on your door with an offer that may be too good to be true
Academic authorship: who, why and in what order?
Get PDFWe are frequently asked by our colleagues and students for advice on authorship for scientific articles. This short paper outlines some of the issues that we have experienced and the advice we usually provide. This editorial follows on from our work on submitting a paper1 and also on writing an academic paper for publication.2 We should like to start by noting that, in our view, there exist two separate, but related issues: (a) authorship and (b) order of authors. The issue of authorship centres on the notion of who can be an author, who should be an author and who definitely should not be an author, and this is partly discipline specific. The second issue, the order of authors, is usually dictated by the academic tradition from which the work comes. One can immediately envisage disagreements within a multi-disciplinary team of researchers where members of the team may have different approaches to authorship order
