It is Friday on The Rickey Smiley Morning Show. Sherri Shepherd no longer wants to have the same producers that Wendy Williams had. She believes they helped her get adjusted for the first season but she is looking for a change. She wants fresh and new and is looking for a new team to head her daytime talk show. With the Kentucky Derby approaching, black people have been shut out from this major event for years. But that is now changing with Derby Diversity Week. This is a week where black businesses and other minority groups in Louisville can get the increase in business that other corporations receive during The Kentucky Derby. Rude behavior is on the rise in America. The main reason that people are being rude, is that they just don't care about other people. Da Brat gives the top six rude behaviors. The RSMS Crew talked about Eboni K. Williams comments about not wanting to date a bus driver only if he owned the bus. The crew thought she can be with who she wants to be but they spoke about there was no mention of love and that your partner can make you better. What do you think? This sparked a conversation about superficial relationships. On Mind, Body, and Business Maria More spoke about how exercising can help you finances. There is a link to staying healthy and keeping your money. And it is Friday, so it is Battle of the Sexes and it gets interesting.

Welcome back to the Humans of Tepper Podcast. This week, joining hosts Ben and Kara is Stephanie Muller to discuss the Technology, Strategy, and Product Management MBA tract. Stephanie started in economics but decided the best move for her was to focus on how technology can revolutionize business.    Tepper stood out to her because it's at the intersection of business and technology and creates competent leaders in both disciplines. Diversity week was also a big factor in why she chose the Tepper community. Diversity week is an event for prospective students from many different backgrounds to come together.   Stephanie explains that Tepper's Technology, Strategy, and Product Management (TSPM) track is all about helping you navigate all aspects of business technology in the functional world. It focuses on what it takes to take an idea and turn it into a product. The tract targets students like computer engineers and students that have a tech background. However, Stephanie did not have that background and still could get into the track she wanted. The support system she's received at Tepper has been integral to her success.    There are many cross-listed courses throughout Tepper and its sister schools, allowing for flexibility to pursue your interests and your MBA. There is such a wide range of projects within your track, and Stephanie is very excited about hers. Stephanie advises prospective and new students to think about what they want to get out of this experience. There are so many programs at Tepper, and it can get overwhelming because you'll want to take them all. So going in knowing what you want beforehand is very helpful. What You Will Learn: Background on Stephanie Muller and what brought her to study at Tepper About the Technology, Strategy, and Product Management MBA tract at Tepper.  Information about Diversity Week at Tepper How many course choices Tepper students have within their Tracks

It’s hard to get anything done when you’re surrounded by people with different backgrounds, values, and perspectives. Doesn’t success come from alignment of likeminded people?

Vanishing for the Vote tells the story of what happened on census night, 2 April 1911. Despite decades of campaigning, no woman had won the right to vote. Suffragettes urged women to boycott the census, proclaiming 'No vote, no census!'. This talk is based on the family census schedules which illustrate the wide diversity of suffrage campaigners - those who complied with the census and those who daringly boycotted.Jill Liddington is an Honorary Research Fellow at the University of Leeds. Her first book, One Hand Tied Behind Us (Virago, 1978), soon became a suffrage classic. Her most recent history, Vanishing for the Vote (MUP, 2014), is based on the The National Archives' census schedules released in 2009.We apologise for the poor sound quality of this live recording.This talk was part of The National Archives' Diversity Week, a week designed to highlight the ongoing work across the organisation surrounding the representation of diverse histories.

Simon Jarrett explores the fascinating and little-known world of the history of people with learning disabilities, known variously over time as idiots, imbeciles, defectives and the mentally handicapped. Using court records, government files, parish records, prints, art and even jokes we can unearth a rich vein of often surprising information, reaching back to medieval times. Simon Jarrett is a Wellcome Trust doctoral researcher at Birkbeck, University of London, working on 'idiocy' in the eighteenth century. He is the author of Disability in time and place, an English Heritage web resource, and is writing a book on the same subject. You can see Hogarth's Marriage a-la-mode series on Wikipedia and photographs of Cell Barnes Hospital on the Out of Sight, Out of Mind? website This talk formed part of The National Archives' Diversity Week 2014.

Finding sexuality and sexual science in the archives. Dr Lesley Hall, Senior Archivist at the Wellcome Library, examines sources at the Wellcome Library on questions of sexuality from approximately 1800 to the present, with particular reference to the roles of medicine and the psychological sciences. She also considers related collections worldwide, with particular reference to the impact of European fascism on individuals and the archival record. Dr Lesley Hall has written extensively on gender and sexuality in the 19th and 20th centuries, including (with the late Roy Porter) The Facts of Life: the creation of sexual knowledge in Britain, 1650-1950 (Yale UP 1995), and Sex, Gender and Social Change in Britain since 1880 (Palgrave, 2nd edition 2012). This talk formed part of The National Archives' Diversity Week.

On the introduction of conscription in 1916, Military Service Tribunals were set up to hear applications and appeals for exemption. Surviving material is fragmented but two complete sets of tribunal papers were retained, including those for the Middlesex Appeal Tribunal.

Chris Barnes is a Records Specialist in Modern Domestic history and David Langrish is a Reader Advisor in the Military, Maritime, Transport and Family History team. This talk formed part of The National Archives' Diversity Week.
