Interview with Ms. Helen Watson – Dean of Women
No full textHelen Linnemeier Watson came to Rollins College in 1956 as the Dean of Women. During her time with the College, Watson took a special interest in the quality of students\u27 on-campus living conditions.
Watson was born on December 11, 1911, in Ft. Wayne, Indiana. She earned her BA in psychology from Florida State College for Women [now FSU] and received her MA from Simmons College. Before coming to Rollins, Watson already had extensive job experience, including a series of posts at Webber College that culminated in her appointment as the college\u27s president.
While at Rollins College, Watson was heavily involved in sorority life and the residence halls. She suggested that washers and dryers be installed in the girls\u27 dorms and helped promote the idea that the campus should have a nighttime security guard. Watson was also a member of several organizations, including the National Association of Deans of Women, the National Education Association, and the Alpha Xi Delta sorority. In 1965, she was awarded the Rollins Decoration of Honor for her service to the institution.
Watson eventually became the Executive Director and Educational Consultant for the Collegiate Business Institute
READING AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF HELEN KELLER’S THE STORY OF MY LIFE
No full textMembaca autobiografi adalah membaca suatu peristiwa, memori dan kenangan yang dituliskan oleh pengarang tentang dirinya sendiri. Persitiwa- peristiwa tersebut lebih banyak mengabarkan tentang sebuah kebenaran subjektif daripada fakta yang sebenarnya. Itu dikarenakan pengarang sebagai subjek yang membaca masa lalunya menjadi tokoh utama dalam autobiografi. Hal ini dapat dikaji dan dibuktikan melalui beberapa aspek di dalam autobiografi.
Ruang lingkup dari tulisan ini adalah bagaimana narrator dalam menarasikan cerita dapat membangun wacana dan berbicara langsung dengan narratee. Pengalaman- pengalaman yang diceritakan oleh narrator, identitas yang ditampilkan dan juga peran editor di dalam pembuatan autobiografi. Adapun tujuan dari tulisan ini adalah untuk mengimplementasikan teori Reading Autobiography yang digunakan untuk menganalisis The Story of My Life yang merupakan autobiografi dari Helen Keller.
Metode yang digunakan dalam tulisan ini adalah metode penelitian kepustakaan dan metode pendekatan teori membaca autobiografi. Metode yang pertama digunakan untuk mengumpul data dan informasi dari sumber-sumber kepustakaan yang mendukung pembahasan. Metode yang kedua digunakan sebagai acuan utama dalam menganalisis aspek yang dominan dalam autobiografi.
Hasil dari analisis menunjukkan bahwa teknik penceritaan yang digunakan oleh pengarang sangat mengesankan, baik dalam segi penceritaan “aku”, ideologi maupun konsep yang dimiliki banyak memproyeksikan tokoh sebagai tokoh yang sempurna secara fisik. Begitu juga pengalaman yang dialami tokoh sengaja dipilihkan pengalaman yang istimewa
Selain itu, identitas yang ditampilkan oleh pengarang bertujuan mengkonstruksikan kesan dirinya seabagai pribadi yang baik kepada pembaca. Di samping itu, adanya peran John Macy sebagai editor di dalam pembuatan autobiografi adalah untuk kepentingan sosial. Hal ini dikarenakan John Macy membantu memproyeksikan Helen Keller sebagai tokoh utama yang hampir sempurna walau dengan keterbatasan fisik. Dia juga mampu membantu Helen dalam mengklarifikasi isu negatif yang berkembang pada masa itu

Targeting the calcium ATPase to the endoplasmic reticulum
No full textThe sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA) pumps calcium from thecytoplasm into the lumen of the endoplasmic or sarcoplasmic reticulum (ER/SR), removingexcess Ca2+ from the cytoplasm and replenishing ER/SR Ca2+ stores. SERCA is located inboth the ER and the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment, and so is likely maintained in theER by retrieval. To locate the ER retrieval signal(s) in SERCA, a series of chimeric calciumpumps have been constructed. Sections of SERCA were replaced with corresponding sequencefrom its plasma membrane counterpart; plasma membrane calcium ATPase (PMCA).Replacing the C-terminus of SERCA with corresponding PMCA sequence results inmistargeting of the protein to the plasma membrane. The opposite construct (consisting ofPMCA with the C-terminus replaced by that of SERCA) is located in the ER, suggesting thatthe ER retrieval signal lies towards the C-terminus of the protein. Many of the chimeras builtwere located in the ER. This is likely to be due to protein misfolding in some cases. Attemptswere made to detect the unfolded protein response in cells expressing chimeras by measuringlevels of the chaperone protein BiP. BiP upregulation was only seen when the unfoldedprotein response was induced pharmacologically, and not in cells expressing chimeras. Moresubtle mutagenesis was then carried out to assess the role of the tenth transmembrane domainof SERCA in ER retrieval and CD8 reporter constructs were used to study the tenthtransmembrane domains of SERCA and PMCA. The study then focussed on determining themechanism by which SERCA is retrieved to the ER. Rer1p and BAP31 are both candidatereceptors for the retrieval of SERCA. An antibody to two epitopes in human Rer1p was raisedand characterised. Immunoprecipitation and cross-linking showed that although Rer1p appearsnot to interact with SERCA, BAP31 shows a potential interaction and therefore could be involved in the retrieval of the calcium pump to the ER
Mary Helen McSweeney-Feld, PhD, Long-Term Care Educator and Author
No full textToday’s guest is Mary Helen McSweeney-Feld. Mary Helen is an associate professor at Towson University in the Department of Health Sciences. Mary Helen is the author of one of the leading textbooks in the field of long-term care, Dimensions of Long-Term Care: An Introduction, and is a recognized leader in long-term care education nationally. In this podcast I talk with Mary Helen about her journey from an early interest in political science and international affairs to discovering the nascent field of health economics in the 80’s, and her transition to an interest in long-term care as a result of having to care for both her father and father-in-law when they suffered from debilitating terminal illnesses. Mary Helen makes a passionate case for long-term care, pointing out the economic opportunities for entrepreneurs, as well as young people looking for a meaningful and well compensated career. I hope you enjoy listening to Mary Helen’s story, and if you find it valuable, won’t you leave us feedback on iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify, or wherever you may be accessing this recording. It helps other people discover us. Thanks for listening, and here is Mary Helen McSweeney-Feld
