Volume 1, Issue 1 Rhode Island College Fall, 2013

WE'RE BAAAACK!!! I arrived on campus a little over seven years ago, in the fall of 2006. Fresh from small-town Wisconsin and in a totally new environment, I remember coming across a Political Science newsletter from the previous spring. What a pleasant (and welcoming) surprise it was to find an article about the newest Political Science faculty member--me!

Flash forward to our first departmental meeting in September of this year. The person responsible for that 2006 newsletter, Professor Schmeling, proposed we resuscitate it. We discussed the need for an information source for anyone and everyone interested in the department. So, after a long hiatus... we're back, and with a new name. The word,"ideopolis," was actually coined by political experts, John Judis and Ruy Teixeira, to mean "a city

sustained primarily by intellectual enterprises, with a highly educated workforce," but we like to think of it as something even broader: an idea community. We invite YOU to contribute your ideas to this community; please let us know what you would like to see in The Ideopolis. We hope to get our next issue out by early spring, so send us stuff as soon as you can.

On behalf of the Editorial Board, I

hope you find our articles informative and that you enjoy catching up on the latest news about students, alumni, faculty, events and more.--MBB

Meet the Faculty: Robyn Linde By Timothy X. McLaughlin '15

Dr. Robyn Linde ("Lin-dee") is known by her students as a professor who is always willing to go the extra mile and make things easily accessible. The department's most recent political science hire, Linde is originally from Ohio; she has a BA from Indiana University, an MA from the University of Delaware, and a PhD from the University of Minnesota. Linde brought her talents to RIC after looking to move to a larger city with her partner, Holly, from their home in Northampton, Massachusetts. When their two daughters aren’t keeping her busy, Linde dedicates much of her time to her courses at RIC. In addition to directing and teaching classes for the International Nongovernmental Organizations Studies program (INGOS), she teaches a variety of courses, including International Law & Organization and Global Politics.

The Global Politics class is Professor Linde's favorite to teach and anyone who has taken it can probably tell by the enthusiasm and expertise she brings to the subject material. She stresses a participatory classroom with active learning in an effort to keep students on their toes and engaged. As someone with a self-described short attention span, she finds it difficult to lecture for too long. Everybody enjoys when class is broken up and material is more easily digestible through critical group discussions—common aspects of Linde's teaching style.

It helps that Professor Linde feels comfortable teaching subjects that she’s interested in, like international relations and social movements, along with her other research interests--human rights, children's rights, LGBT rights, international law and nonstate actors--with a department that allows her to do so. She has the ability to teach what she wants and in a way that can most effectively leave an impact on her students. A good example can be seen in her INGOS 302 course on social entrepreneurship—a service learning project in which Linde has her students work with a local organization in order to see how a real NGO operates. Last semester, Linde and her class helped a group called Healthy Families Initiative which works to assist victims of domestic violence in the Muslim community of Rhode Island.

Dr. Linde arrives to class ready to get her students engaged and, most importantly, she leads them with passion and a deep knowledge of the topic. Often this attitude is contagious. She is a welcome addition to our campus and we all benefit from her great work in the classroom.

Dr. Francis Leazes is leading an effort to turn the North Burial Ground (NBG) in Providence into a tourism and economic development asset for the city with the help of RIC students. Working with Rhode Island Council for the Humanities, the funds awarded to Dr. Leazes, 2013

grads Britni Gorman and Neale Ross, along with Communications student, Chloe Hedenskog, and History Graduate graduate student, Michelle Valetta, are busy building a web site devoted to on-line walking tours of the largest public burial ground in Rhode Island. Dr. Seth Dixon’s classes in Geographic Information Systems help out by mapping the cemetery and taking GPS coordinates of gravesites featured on the tour. So far the team, which also consists of Dr. Ron Dufour (History) and Dr. Erik Christiansen (Public History), have mapped a tour that focuses on four prominent women buried in NBG. A 26 stop digital tour that features Civil War participants, including two Congressional Medal of Honor recipients, will soon be uploaded. The next tour will be one that begins by telling the story of the Riot of 1831 in Providence, the event that transformed the Town of Providence into a city. If you are interested in helping out, and perhaps earning credit for doing so, we are looking for individuals proficient in web design and coding using PHP and Javascript, as well as anyone else interested in writing short biographies of people interred in the burying ground. Mayors and governors, senators and members of Congress, Chief Justices along with just the ordinary citizen are all waiting for their stories to be told. Visit the website at www.ric.edu/northburialground to learn more. If you think you might want to join in the effort to restore a cultural asset and learn something about some of the formative political events of Providence and Rhode Island as you do so, contact Dr. Leazes at [email protected].

The student who elects to do an Honors Thesis commits to investigating a topic or question of interest over two semesters, with the research culminating in the Thesis. Typically begun in the fall of the senior year, the student works closely with an advisor to develop a proposal that the department must approve before moving on to the second semester. If the student has a successful proposal, the final project goes before a committee, where the student must defend it. For the student to receive departmental honors, the majority of the committee must vote to approve the Honors Thesis. Last spring, four students successfully defended their theses (their advisors are in parentheses): Kevin Dwyre (Weiner): “Habitus in the Political Sociology of Pierre Bourdieu: Cultural Practices as Class Distinction and Reproduction." Understanding “false consciousness” in terms of habitus: the embodied dispositions in the misrecognition of symbolic relations of domination/ subordination Jonathan Lamantia (Weiner): “An Articulation of Kantian Social Contract as the Evolution of Reason." Focus is on the often neglected, but significant role of social contract theory in the 1790s political philosophy of Immanuel Kant which serves as the foundation of the 1970s political theories of John Rawls and Jürgen Habermas. Daniel J. McCarthy III (Schmeling): "Understanding the Determinates of U.S. District Court Judges’ Decisions on Patriot Act Cases." A quantitative analysis of the relative roles that judges’ political attitudes and strategic calculations play in Federal District Court Decisions involving the U.S.A. Patriot Act of 2001. Jesse Pösl Rhinehart (Weiner): "Max Weber and Thomas Mann: Approaches to Normative Commitment." Mines the intersection of political theory and literature grounded in the writings of Nietzsche in order to understand how to construct meaning-adequate ideal types which enable the interpretation of actions in its sequences and in its patterns before we move to the level of causal adequacy in empirical analysis. The following students will be present their theses in the spring: Gary Pascoa (Schmeling): "'Fire Alarms' in the Court: Congress, Interest groups, and the Strategic Drafting of Judicial Review." An examination of how interest groups attempt to influence Congress to shape opportunities for judicial review of actions of administrative agencies. Will focus on these activities in relation to the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare). Patrick Pride (Weiner): “Thoroughly Under The Skin: Raymond Williams, Affect Theory and Political Studies.” Studies the odyssey of Cambridge don/New Left Review founding editor Raymond Williams in applying Marx’s concept of false consciousness to literary criticism. An odyssey taking him through sociology of literature and critical theory to the concept of “structures of feeling [affect]” in the discourse of politics and culture.

In the KNOW about INGOS?

The INGOS Program introduces students to international nongovernmental organizations (like Amnesty International, Doctors without Borders and Greenpeace), and explores the many ways these important organizations are shaping the world. The program offers two tracks: a certificate and a minor; both tracks are open to all students. For more information, contact Professor Robyn Linde at [email protected]. INGOS News This summer and fall, two INGOs students went abroad for their international internships for the certificate in INGOs. Milton Taylor went to Liberia to work for the Adventist Development and Relief Agency, and Annie Dickson (Political Science minor ‘11) went to Haiti to work with the NGO Haiti Communitere. Annie has since accepted a job as the Apprenticeship Program and Production Manager with Rebuild Globally, an NGO in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, that works to employ local artisans to make products from recyclable materials. Check out Annie’s organization at http://www.rebuildglobally.org. This Spring, the INGOs course, INGOs and Social Entrepreneurship (INGO 302), will partner with the Dorcas International Institute on a range of service learning projects. Students will work in areas including grant-writing, development, an immigration program and the Welcoming Rhode Island program, a community-based initiative to foster a welcoming environment for foreign-born Rhode Islanders.

Oh, the PLACES You'll Go... with GEOGRAPHY!

National Geography Awareness Week is Nov. 18-22. The Rhode Island Geography Education Alliance (RIGEA), housed in the Political Science Department here at Rhode Island College, hopes that Geography Awareness Week will be a platform to promote spatial thinking and global awareness (something we like to call geo-literacy) here in the Ocean State. Geography News Students in Prof. Mark Motte’s GEOG 339: Metropolitan Geography class are spending this fall in a real-world city planning studio with “WaterFire Providence” as their client. Teamed with Prof. Steven Lubar and graduate Students from Brown University’s Center for Public Humanities, the RIC geographers have been assessing the cultural impacts or “value added” of public art to residents’ and visitors’ impressions of the state’s capital city. Working with face-to-face and on-line surveys, the students from RIC and Brown have been asking the question, among others, “How likely [on a scale from 1 to 10] are you to recommend that a friend visit the city?” This question was selected because it encompasses a psychological investment on the part of the respondents: Are they prepared to put their own reputations on the line to invoke a friend’s gratitude or ire through such a recommendation? Research into the role of WaterFire and similar public happenings in fostering positive impressions of and loyalty to Providence is in line with recent scholarly work on what has become known as creative placemaking: measuring the role of entrepreneurship in the arts as a stimulus toward cultural innovation, a sense of belonging and community attachment, and economic growth. (cont'd on next page)

Geography Corner


The students undertook parallel surveys in New Bedford, Massachusetts during that city’s Working Waterfront Festival to compare residents’ and visitors’ impressions of the city. They also executed surveys in both Providence and New Bedford on days when no public event was scheduled. Thus controls were established by comparing two different cities during significant public artistic happenings and, conversely, under conditions when no such events were scheduled. The students’ research to date reveals that Providence fairs very well in the emotional investment of residents and visitors. During WaterFire, approximately 70% of respondents were active promoters of Providence (giving the city a score of 9-10 on the “Likely to Recommend” scale), while on a non-WaterFire night 42% were promoters. In New Bedford, 66% were promoters on the Festival day, while only 11% were promoters on the non-Festival survey day. The students’ research has been very well received by our client, Peter Mello, the chief administrative officer of WaterFire. The work of the class continues.

The Perks of Being a Pub Ad Major

PA NEWS The Public Administration program wants its majors to create networks as they look forward to internships, graduate school and the world of work. This semester, students in Dr. Leazes' Political Science 301: Foundations of Public Administration course were able to meet with a variety of PA practitioners, including RIC Geography alumnus, Jason Pezzullo '99, MPA RIC-URI '10, Principal Planner for the City of Cranston; Susanne Greschner, an alumnae of the RIC-URI MPA Program ('01) and Rhode Island's Director of Municipal Affairs; SueEllen Kroll, Director of Grants and Strategic Partnerships for the Rhode Island Council for the Humanities; RIC Public Administration alum, Ryan Gardiner '07, MPA RIC-URI '08, now a Budget Analyst for the RI Department of Administration; and Derrick Pelletier '09 MPA RIC-URI, who works for the Rhode Island Office of Management and Budget.

Public Administration Corner


An American in London (and Paris, too)?

It was finally time to see downtown London. At this point I was still uncertain about my feelings regarding the city. I was unsure about what this experience would be like for me or if I could even enjoy it. But I was open enough to give it a try. I was mesmerized by the beautiful architectural form and the constant activity all around me. I literally had never been exposed to what I was seeing. You never knew what was around the corner. I was in awe of all the novelty I was taking in at once. There were so many people coming and going, so much sensory stimuli.

This trip made me become very aware of the possible influences of place of birth, culture and class on someone’s behavior. I became more and more confident in my own ability to navigate the city on my own, to respond effectively to unfamiliar situations, and to observe and learn from my surroundings. Even though there were thousands of people almost always around me, the city provided me another means of solitude and independence in its own way.

The city of Paris is literally one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. It was so obvious the effort that was being put into making the city appealing to the senses. I loved the open-ness with which Parisians displayed affection. This was a place I could spend a lot of time in, returning constantly to be in this amazingly inviting and beautiful environment. I would love to return here with a lover. I miss the place just writing about it.

Thanks to Lucas Dieter for this brief excerpt from his essay, "Reflections on the London Course, 2013."

This fall, the department was approached by the democracy action group, Generation Citizen, who asked us to provide students who were willing to act as “democracy coaches” in Providence middle and high schools. Seven students enrolled in a two-credit section of POL381 led by Dr. Schmeling. One of the students, David Otto '15, describes his experience below: Generation Citizen: An Invaluable Experience Teaching "action civics" to a classroom of 7th and 8th graders in a Providence public school seemed like a daunting activity, but it was an experience too great to pass up. Action civics is an approach in which students address problems through real-world experiences that applies to their lives. It’s not every day a RIC Political Science student is able to directly inspire the youth of their community while simultaneously pursuing a major they’re passionate about. Generation Citizen is just that, and it’s shaping up to be the most memorable experience of my college career. The leaders at Generation Citizen have worked tirelessly in creating a meticulous curriculum, a supportive website, leading weekly one hour meetings, and providing constant feedback; their dedication has enabled me to be an effective leader in the classroom. The experience builds upon my excitement about democracy and allows me to stimulate the minds and actions of young activists. Ana, my co-democracy coach (the title given to college students who teach action civics in middle and high school classrooms), and I work with students at DelSesto Middle School. With the direction provided by the Generation Citizen curriculum, the students were able to identify a problem facing students all over the country: bullying. In order to raise awareness about and prevent bullying, these students have decided to implement a student-led hall monitoring program. It’s our job as democracy coaches to help these students succeed. With only two 1-hour class periods a week, we certainly have our work cut out for us, but the spirit of the students and their democracy coaches makes it all seem possible. Generation Citizen has chapters at Brown, Providence College, Bryant, and Rhode Island College as of this semester. In addition to Providence, the program operates in Boston, New York, and San Francisco. --David Otto For more information about Generation Citizen, go to: www.generationcitizen.org.

The Ideopolis Rhode Island College Department of Political Science 600 Mt. Pleasant Ave. Providence, RI 02908 Editorial Board Michelle Brophy-Baermann Hillary Costa Gary Pascoa Thomas Schmeling Please email all comments, questions, suggestions, news and more to [email protected].

Dear Students, First, I want to thank Professor Brophy-Baermann for reviving and editing the department newsletter. It’s a great opportunity for students to learn what other Poli Sci majors and their professors have been doing. We hope it will continue and that you will all be a part of it in the future. We have a dynamic department with a lot going on. In addition to the Political Science major, we house the Public Administration major, the Geography major, and the International Non-Governmental Organizations program. The curricula of all of these have been revised in the last few years and faculty are actively engaged in building the programs. Their work is paying off. We are able to offer more exciting academic and service opportunities for students and all of the programs are growing. As you have seen from this newsletter, our majors and alumni are doing interesting and socially valuable things. Some are pursuing graduate degrees, while others are engaged in various forms of community service and development. We think that the Political Science major is well designed to help students develop the skills–clear analytical and critical thinking, the ability to frame and answer important questions, analyze data and communicate effectively both orally and in writing–that will allow them to succeed in a wide variety of careers. Thomas Schmeling, Chair of the Political Science Department
