ACCEE Series #3: w/ Trevor Storrs & Jessica Simonsen April 21, 2025 Last year we talked twice with members of the Anchorage Child Care and Early Education Fund implementation team. During 2024 they were doing research, hearing from the community, and making recommendations to the Anchorage Assembly about how to spend the $5 million dollars of marijuana tax money earmarked for Child Care and Early Education made possible by Proposition 14 in 2023. On this episode I am joined by Trevor Storrs and Jessica Simonsen to get an update on what is happening with the ACCEE fund. https://www.careforkidsanchorage.com   #anchoredcity https://anchorageutc.org https://www.facebook.com/AnchorageUTC @AnchorageUTC

Mirandi Riwoe's The Sunbirds tests the identities and loyalties between Dutch and Indonesians in colonial Java on the eve of the Japanese invasion. Devika Ponnambalam's I Am Not Your Eve is an imagining of the life of Teha'amana, Paul Gaugin's Tahitian 'child-bride'.   Both authors join Elisabeth Storrs in discussing the complexities of bringing alternative perspectives to previously Euro-centric stories, and the research challenges experienced in delving deeper into such histories. Imagining the Past is listed in the Top 25 Historical Fiction Podcasts.  

In this episode of the CAA Conversations, Amanda Douberley, Clarissa J. Ceglio, and Alison Paul discuss the William Benton Museum of Art at the University of Connecticut, which brings student perspectives into its galleries and fosters belonging through innovative curricular partnerships. Three recent projects undertaken by classes in UConn's School of Fine Arts produced student-centered interpretive materials for the Benton's exhibitions. Each interactive project connected the museum with the campus community in a different way and cultivated a sense of belonging for both students enrolled in partner courses and student visitors to the Benton. Clarissa J. Ceglio, PhD, is Associate Professor of Digital Humanities, Associate Director of Research, for Greenhouse Studios, and Associate Director of Collaborative Research for UConn's Humanities Institute. Her research focuses on the ways in which museums, past and present, engage diverse communities in issues relevant to individual and civic thriving. She looks, too, at the affective and rhetorical uses of material, visual, and digital artifacts in constructing national and social imaginaries. Through her teaching and research, Ceglio also collaborates with museums, libraries, and communities on interdisciplinary public-facing and grant-funded projects that engage diverse audiences in topics of contemporary concern. Amanda Douberley is Curator & Academic Liaison at the William Benton Museum of Art, University of Connecticut, Storrs. She is responsible for connecting Benton's collections and exhibitions with teaching in departments across the university. She has curated numerous exhibitions at the museum, often in collaboration with faculty and other campus partners. Douberley holds a Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Austin with a focus on 20th-century American sculpture and public art. Before coming to UConn in 2018, she taught in the Department of Art History, Theory, and Criticism at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Alison Paul is an Associate Professor of Art and Area Coordinator for the Illustration/Animation concentration in the Department of Art and Art History at the University of Connecticut. Paul creates illustrations and stop-motion animations using cut paper collage. Her work is fundamentally about storytelling to a variety of audiences. Paul's animations have been shown in film festivals internationally, and her children's books have received starred reviews from Publishers Weekly and Kirkus Reviews. She has curated exhibitions at the William Benton Museum of Art in Storrs and the Roots Reading Room in Providence, RI. Professor Paul has taught at UConn since 2011.

Brock shares some stories about his trip to Storrs, CT along with Boston to watch his daughter in March Madness. The two then take a look at what the feel as if the Mariners Opening Day roster now will be along with remembering Mitch Haniger's great moments in his Mariners career. In Blue 88, topics include what lesson Ryan Grubb learned about the NFL, an outside of the box move that the Seahawks could make before the NFL Draft and why the Seahawks chose to sign River Cracraft.

Is SDSU vs UConn the biggest sporting event in the history of South Dakota State — and maybe even the state of South Dakota — considering the Jackrabbits' opponent, the stakes, and the national stage this game is on?Yes, there have been football FBS national titles and Div. II men's and women's national titles, plus other matchups with big-name, top-notch big league schools in the big sports. But this is the all-time women's national program (record 11 titles), still coached by the inarguable best (or most decorated) coaching titan of the entire sport, in the NCAA Tournament, not just a November or December non-conference game.This is Geno Auriemma and Paige Bueckers in the NCAA Tournaand a No. 2 seed that could win the national title!Matt Zimmer is there to talk about how historically relevant Monday night's game is, what kind of chances the Jackrabbits have, and how SDSU socred a satisfying but not necessarily surprising Jacks win over Oklahoma State on Saturday.Plenty of comparisons between the SDSU and UConn programs and coaches, and plenty of insight into some of the things Auriemma and Aaron Johnston and SDSU players had to say in his Sunday pre-game press conference, attended mostly by South Dakoa media.Would a victory be the greatest moment in South Dakota State athletics history — if not in state of South Dakota history.So much big game to discuss!

Chris Walker, CBS Sports College Basketball Analyst, joins the show to break down the bracket I Does Dan Hurley have any regrets for spurning LA to stay in Storrs? I WTF Rodgers: Everyone awaits on Kevin O'Connell.

Sabreena and Chantel sit down with UConn head coach Geno Auriemma. They discuss how much the women's basketball landscape has changed in the 40 years since he arrived in Storrs, how building a program is different than maintaining a program (and what he misses about that building process), how freshmen players have become more adaptable to the college game and which of his pre-NIL players would've most thrived during the NIL era. Then, in this addition to Zena's love letter she discusses a few of the college coaches that aren't often mentioned but have been able to adapt their approach to the game to fit today's era. -Follow Zena on X: @itszenakeita -Follow Chantel on X: @chanteljennings -Follow Sabreena on X: @sabreenajm Learn more about your ad choices.

Today I had the pleasure to talk to Christopher Burhnham who recently published Sir Ronald Storrs Personality and Policy in Mandate Palestine, 1917-1926 with Routledge. While some may say that we already know enough on Storrs, the reality is that his legacy in Jerusalem is not only fully understood and neglected, but given the lengthy rulership, we still have to uncover more.It builds upon Edward Said's work on the Orientalist ‘determining imprint' by arguing that Storrs took a deeply personal approach to governing the city; one determined by his upbringing, his education in the English private school system and his service as a British official in Colonial Egypt. Burnham recognises the influence of these experiences on Storrs' perceptions of and attitudes towards Jerusalem, identifying how these formative years manifested themselves on the city and in the Governor's interactions with Jerusalemites of all backgrounds and religious beliefs. It also highlights the restrictions placed on Storrs' approach by his British superiors, Palestinians and the Zionist movement, alongside the limitations imposed by his own attitudes and worldview. Placing Storrs' personality at the centre of discussion on early Mandate Jerusalem exposes a nuanced and complex picture of how personality and politics collided to influence its everyday life and built environment.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/jerusalemunplugged.

In today's episode of Locked On UConn, we dive into the news that Kansas declined a return matchup against UConn in Storrs, opting instead to send Baylor for the Big East/Big 12 Battle. Host Mark Zanetto calls out Bill Self and the Jayhawks for avoiding a challenging road game, contrasting their decision with UConn's consistent willingness to embrace tough non-conference matchups. Mark explores the broader double standard in college basketball narratives, questioning why UConn faces criticism for its scheduling decisions while programs like Kansas seem to escape scrutiny. This decision by Kansas not only sidesteps a marquee game but also raises questions about their willingness to risk a loss in one of the toughest home environments in college basketball. The discussion then shifts to UConn's experimentation with a double-big lineup in their must-win game against Baylor. With Alex Karaban out, Dan Hurley turned to Samson Johnson and Tarris Reed Jr., a pairing that proved pivotal in the 76-72 victory. Johnson and Reed combined for a strong defensive presence and timely offense, helping UConn outscore Baylor by 11 points during their shared minutes on the floor. However, Hurley made it clear this strategy was a temporary adjustment out of necessity and isn't likely to be a regular feature in UConn's rotations. Mark reflects on Hurley's comments, drawing parallels to past struggles when UConn lacked shooting and spacing. While the double-big lineup worked in this instance, the focus remains on returning to the versatility and speed that define Hurley's system. In the final segment, we break down advanced analytics from EvanMiya.com and discuss UConn's top player performances and lineups. Alex Karaban leads the team with a Bayesian Performance Rating (BPR) of 5.96, highlighting his impact on both ends of the floor. Liam McNeeley and Hassan Diarra also stand out, with McNeeley stepping up significantly in Karaban's absence. The analysis highlights the most effective lineup featuring Solomon Ball, Diarra, Johnson, Karaban, and McNeeley, which boasts an Adjusted Efficiency Margin of 53.7. Transitioning to UConn's KenPom ranking of 25th, we discuss the balance between their strong offensive efficiency and areas for defensive improvement. Mark emphasizes how these metrics provide a deeper understanding of UConn's potential as they navigate a challenging schedule and aim to solidify themselves as a national contender. This episode is packed with insights into UConn basketball's schedule controversies, strategic adjustments, and the metrics that reveal the team's strengths and weaknesses. From calling out Kansas to dissecting lineup data, this is one you don't want to miss. Ads Included in This Episode:Mint Mobile: Premium wireless for just $15/month.

Historian Tim Barker and editor/organizer Ben Mabie join to discuss a thrilling episode in the history of American labor. Barker and Mabie are two co-hosts of Fragile Juggernaut, a Haymarket Originals podcast exploring the history, politics, and strategic lessons of the Congress of Industrial Organizations (or CIO). Along with  co-hosts Alex Press, Gabriel Winant, Andrew Elrod, and Emma Teitelman, they've been telling the story of organized labor in the 1930s, the radical possibilities of that decade, and the eclipsing of those possibilities in the post-war years — with the onset of the cold war, McCarthyism, and anti-union legislation like Taft-Hartley.In a sense, this episode is a pre-history of the story we tell on Know Your Enemy. If you've ever wondered, what was it that so terrified reactionary businessmen about the New Deal era? How did they come to believe that revolutionary upheaval was a real prospect in America, that Communists were everywhere, threatening the social order, and that this peril demanded the creation and funding of a new conservative movement? Well part of the answer is: the CIO. From a certain angle, the right-wing fever dream was real, at least for a time: the CIO really was filled with Communists, labor militants really did take over factories and shut down whole cities, and it really did seem possible, if only briefly, that the American working class — including immigrants from all over Europe, black workers, and women — might find solidarity on the shop floor, consolidate politically, and threaten the reign of capital. That didn't quite happen. And this episode will partially explain why. Further Reading:Andrew Elrod, "Fragile Juggernaut: What was the CIO?" n+1, Jan 24, 2024. Bruce Nelson, Workers on the Waterfront: Seamen, Longshoremen, and Unionism in the 1930s, U of Illinois Press,  1988.Robert H.
