Sixty Years of Community: St. Olaf Catholic Parish in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, 1952-2012
No full textThis paper will explore how the parish community of St. Olaf in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, established in 1952, reflects the Roman Catholic Church, specifically at the local, state, and national levels in the United States. It will also discuss the various changes that have occurred in the past 60 years of its history in terms of the various locations of worship for the members, the growth of the community outreach programs, and the effects of the Second Vatican Council. This ecumenical council was a meeting of Catholic bishops from around the whole that brought reform to the Catholic Church and affected the relationship of the Catholic Church to the world. The parish at St. Olaf has grown from having only 125 families in 1952 to over 1,000 families in 2012
From Mansions to Towers: A History of Residence Halls at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire
No full textThe construction of the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire's residence halls has generally followed that of the national trend. The school struggled to find enough funds to build residence halls in the early years. Eventually, student housing was in needed so badly that the school had no choice but to provide housing for the students. In 1947, the Dulany mansion was purchased and remodeled by the school. This building served as the University's first resident hall. Since then, eleven resident halls have been built on campus with one more being planned. Life in these residence halls have changed dramatically over time. In the 1960's, the students protested and eventually the strict rules of in loco parentis faded away. After this, students enjoyed the freedoms of new technologies, relaxed rules, and more professional housing leaders. Today, UW-Eau Claire is a thriving university. UW-Eau Claire has been recognized by many as a top school in the Midwest. Much of the success can be attributed to the residence halls and the happiness of the students. My paper will provide UW-Eau Claire and its students with a cohesive history of the residence halls on campus and will also show how student life has evolved since the University was first established

The queer art of autofabulation: giving a radical account of oneself after HIV/AIDS
No full text“The Queer Art of Autofabulation: Giving a Radical Account of Oneself After HIV/AIDS” traces the development of autobiographical practices as strategies of resistance in art, writing and theory from the 1980s onwards. It argues that the onset of the AIDS epidemic has caused an epistemological crisis of queer selfhood which is better understood through the concept of “queer autofabulation” – a term I use to refer to the practices and techniques of the self which challenge dominant and pathologizing discourses. The corpus of this thesis covers works by the French writer and photographer Hervé Guibert (1955–1991), the American artist and activist Gregg Bordowitz (1964–), and the Spanish-born, Paris-based writer and trans-feminist philosopher Paul B. Preciado (1970–). Drawing on Franco-American intellectual history – specifically the interrelation between poststructuralism and queer theory – this thesis situates autobiographical theory and practices at the heart of Western queer thought. Notably, it situates the concept of autofabulation as a critical and intermedial alternative to the literary genre of autofiction. Through this framework, this thesis explores the formation of queer subjectivity in relation to mainstream media, medical discourses and psychoanalysis. By proposing a new and interdisciplinary conceptualization of queer autobiographical practices, this thesis makes an original contribution to current scholarship in gender and sexuality studies, comparative literature, and visual culture. Furthermore, it offers an original transatlantic mapping of thinkers and practitioners which illustrates the significance of Franco-American intellectual history in the formation of queer thought
