Phil Shriver—A Miami Treasure
The passing of Miami President Emeritus Phillip Shriver last April marked the end of an era
at Miami. In Dr. Shriver’s memory, University Archives has compiled an exhibit featuring
personal items donated by Dr. Shriver over the years. Exhibited materials include a pair of
toy drumsticks from Shriver’s childhood, notes and exams from classes taken with leading
American historians Arthur Schlesinger and Allan Nevins, and a draft syllabus and exam
from Dr. Shriver’s Miami History course. Miami Archivist Bob Schmidt will also give a
tour of the Archives, which houses thousands of historically significant materials from the
university’s establishment in 1809 to the present day. (Meet on-site at University Archives

Classes without Quizzes/Session Block I
“Obama and Bush: The Resemblance is Not Coincidental”
Presenter: Dr. Ryan Barilleaux, Professor, Political Science
Room: Farmer School of Business 0025
In 2008, Barack Obama ran for the presidency as a harsh critic of George W. Bush’s
presidency. Yet Obama’s time in the White House bears a stronger resemblance to Bush’s
than the President would like to admit. What is going on? The answer may surprise you.
“blogging101.edu”
The concept of identity has been a topic of philosophical, psychological and social inquiry
for thousands of years. Historical figures including Socrates, Plato, Freud and Jung are
most commonly associated with the study of identity. Less often considered, but no less
important, are painters, sculptors and photographers. Through art, a significant
understanding of personal and cultural identity can be explored. (Miami University
Art Museum; shuttle leaves at 3 p.m. from Shriver Center)
Presenter: Ms. Peg Faimon, Naus Family Faculty Scholar & Professor, Art

Curious about blogging? Ever wanted to experiment with blogging but didn’t know where to

Presenter: Dr. Jerry Gannod, Director, Miami University Mobile Learning Center
Room: Farmer School of Business 0027
The Mobile Learning Center’s primary mission is to promote the use of mobile technology
for education. The center is a joint venture of the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences,
the Armstrong Institute for Interactive Media Studies, and Information Technology Services.
The Center is focused on providing students, faculty, staff, and the local community access
to mobile learning resources through education, research, technology development, and
consulting. In this class, the speaker provides an overview of existing mobile technologies
and their use in education. He also provides highlights of the Center’s successes, including
presentations of on-going work being performed by Miami students.

In fall 2009, Miami University’s Farmer School of Business moved into a new home,

facility, built at the former site of Reid Hall, features a 500-seat auditorium, more than
30 state-of-the-art classrooms, a simulated trading center complete with stock market

“GenerAges: Generations as they Age”
Presenter: Dr. Suzanne Kunkel, Director of the Scripps Gerontology Center
Room: Farmer School of Business 0019
This year, the first baby boomers are turning 65. These leading-edge baby boomers will be
joining millions of others—from distinctly different generations—who have already reached
that milestone. The world of aging is changing rapidly, affected by social change and by the
experiences, expectations and values that each generation brings with it to this stage of life.
In this presentation, we discuss the major events shaping three generations of Americans who
are embarking on, or immersed in, the processes of aging. We will also talk about how later
life has changed over the decades and the unique challenges an aging society faces today.

Like its peer institutions, Miami University is embracing the challenge of making its
curriculum and operations more sustainable. This is a multi-faceted effort that engages all
aspects of campus life, requiring new collaboration among students, faculty, staff, and
the wider community. Dr. David Prytherch gives a broad overview of the challenges and
opportunities posed by campus sustainability, and the efforts behind Miami’s recently
announced “Sustainability Commitments and Goals.” He discusses specific ways that
Miami is working to simultaneously reduce its environmental impact, improve its
bottom line, and enhance learning opportunities.
“Is There a Solution to the Health Care Crisis? A Look at Health Care in the
21st Century”
Presenter: Dr. Melissa Thomasson, Associate Professor, Economics
Room: Farmer School of Business 0031
Health care costs consume almost 18 percent of GDP and rise every year at a rate greater
than inflation. This class discusses reasons why health care costs are rising, including waste,
technology, and insurance. We’ll examine possible solutions ranging from the Affordable
Care Act to free market approaches.

“Twenty-Somethings in the Workplace: Whiz Kids or Whiners”
Presenters: Mr. Mark Lacker, Markley Visiting Executive Professor, Institute
for Entrepreneurial Studies and Mr. Matt Welty, Corporate Projects, Paycor
Room: Farmer School of Business 0031
The feedback is constant – many of our young alumni feel like work isn’t challenging
enough. Yet employers are rife with stories of twenty-somethings who don’t want to pay
their dues. Are they the entitled generation or just waiting to be motivated? Matt Welty,
a successful twenty-something, and Mark Lacker, not a twenty-something, share what
you need to know to manage, work with, and unleash the potential of this promising but
sometimes challenging generation.
“I’ve Found My Keys, but Where Did I Park the Car?: Distinguishing
Normal Memory Loss from Dementia in Later Life”
Presenter: Dr. Jennifer Kinney, Professor, Sociology & Gerontology
Room: Farmer School of Business 0033
It is difficult to pick up a newspaper or magazine without reading about aging-related
memory loss. As a result, many adults worry about their own cognitive status or that of a
relative or friend. In this session, we review what is known about normal cognitive aging
and examine the ABC’s of dementia. We will also explore the subjective experience of living
with dementia and discuss strategies that promote effective communication with, and a
positive sense of self for, individuals living with dementia.

The Obama administration and U.S. Congress seem unwilling or unable to seriously address
the issue of undocumented immigration. Instead, we are treated to the spectacle of Stephen
Colbert’s testimony before a House Committee, the use of the immigration topic as part of
the Tea Party’s mobilization effort, and controversial laws and enforcement ranging from the
state of Arizona to Butler County. This session discusses the politics of immigration policy
at the local, state, and federal levels.

“The Price We Pay: The Changing Climate of Our Carbon Economy”
“Cairo and Washington: 1952-2011”
Presenter: Dr. James T. Oris, Associate Dean for Research and Scholarship and
Professor, Zoology
Room: Farmer School of Business 0019
Our dependence on carbon-based fuels shaped much of our past and drives much of today’s
economy. But that reliance has also led to major environmental catastrophes such as the
Exxon-Valdez, and, most recently, the BP Deepwater Horizon. These fuels have influenced
science and politics, been the focus of national policies and international relations, and led to
global conflicts. Professor Oris explores the history of our carbon-based economy, discusses the
challenges we face today, and shares what may lie ahead as new forms of energy are developed.
Presenter: Dr. Amanda McVety, Assistant Professor, History
Room: Farmer School of Business 0032
This class presents a brief overview of U.S. relations with Egypt since the 1952 revolution.
Particular attention is paid to the three Egyptian leaders (Nasser, Sadat, and Mubarak), who
made their nation a major player in Middle Eastern affairs—sometimes to America’s delight
and sometimes to its despair.
“Germany’s Roaring Twenties: Sex and Social Upheaval in the Weimar Republic”
Presenter: Dr. Peter Jamieson, Assistant Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering
Room: Farmer School of Business 0028
The transistor is, arguably, the greatest invention in terms of change for our society, and
from this invention came the possibility to make the tiny computers that now are invading
our pockets. While we all use computers as tools, many of us are scared of going under the
hood of the machine on our desk and in our hand. In this class, we will learn to program
a computer that acts as the brain of a simple robot and then use the robot to help us
understand the current state of these technologies.
Presenter: Dr. Erik Jensen, Associate Professor, History
Room: Farmer School of Business 0024
Did you know that Germany in the 1920s had the world’s largest gay rights movement or
that its reputation for sexual permissiveness had already made it a destination for what we
might term today as sex tourism? Germany’s defeat in World War I and the subsequent
creation of an entirely new political system in 1919 ushered in a society in which the older
social mores no longer pertained, and anything seemed possible. The author Robert Musil
summed up the sense of earth shifting beneath one’s feet in a 1929 essay in which he
proclaimed that postwar Germany had given rise not just to a new woman, but also to
“a new man, a new child, and a new society.” Co-Sponsored by the 1809 LGBT Alumni Group
“Controversy in the Body Wars”
Presenter: Dr. Ron Cox, Associate Professor, Kinesiology and Health
Room: Farmer School of Business 0021
A multitude of deleterious health consequences are associated with weight and obesity,
including diabetes, high blood pressure, cancer, etc. However, is fat the culprit? Why is there
no improvement in health condition when fat is surgically removed from the body? Why
is diabetes cured in obese individuals who undergo gastric bypass surgery before they lose
any weight? Are we looking at the wrong thing? This presentation explores and maybe even
clarifies some aspects of this issue. It might even propose a new approach.

“Babes and Bruisers: Women’s and Men’s Boxing in Interwar Berlin”

Room: Farmer School of Business 0024
You may know that Muhammad Ali’s daughter, Laila, boxes. You may even have heard that
women’s boxing will be an Olympic event in 2012. But did you know that women boxed,
oftentimes right alongside men, in the 1920s? This presentation explores the wild world of
boxing in 1920s Berlin, where men and women overturned the social order inside the
boxing ring and illustrated the endless possibilities for self-invention in postwar Germany.

“Energy and Economics: What’s Up Along with Prices?”
Presenter: Dr. Steven Elliott, Associate Professor, Economics
Room: Farmer School of Business 0033
How do economics and economists consider energy (hint, it’s not ALL price). We will be
considering issues with petroleum, nuclear power and renewable energies. What might the
future hold and how might markets and market forces affect that future?
“Making the Rainbow Connection”
Presenter: Dr. Gillian Oakenfull, Associate Professor, Marketing
Room: Farmer School of Business 0021
In the 1980s and 1990s, gay men and lesbians entered public discourse in the United States
in a new way. At the very moment that AIDS activism (as well as debates about gays in the
military, gay marriage, and anti-discrimination legislation) hit the streets, the media and the
courts, gay consumers were proclaimed a “Dream Market” of affluent buyers loyal to the
companies who recognized them. By 2005, corporate spending on advertising in gay media
and sponsorship of gay-oriented causes had grown to $232 million. In this presentation, we
will explore the relationship between the politics of gay rights and identity, the business of
marketing to gay consumers, and the reality of a gay niche market. Co-Sponsored by the 1809

are painters, sculptors and photographers. Through art, a significant understanding of
personal and cultural identity can be explored.

Phil Shriver—A Miami Treasure
The passing of Miami President Emeritus Phillip Shriver marked the end of an era at
Miami. In his memory, University Archives has compiled an exhibit featuring personal
items donated by Dr. Shriver over the years. Exhibited materials include a pair of toy
drumsticks from Shriver’s childhood, notes and exams from classes taken with leading
American historians Arthur Schlesinger and Allan Nevins, and a draft syllabus and exam
from Dr. Shriver’s Miami History course. Miami Archivist Bob Schmidt will also give a

Reunion Giving
Alumni Weekend is a great time for reconnecting with friends and reliving fond
memories. It’s also a wonderful opportunity to give back in honor of your Miami
Experience. Much that you enjoyed at Miami was made possible by those who came
before you, and now future generations of Miamians are counting on you. Gifts of all
sizes are necessary, and we hope you’ll consider supporting one of the following options:
Class Scholarship Fund
Supporting your class scholarship fund provides Miami students with crucial financial aid. During a
challenging economic time, it’s never been more important to provide the support that assists Miami
students and their families in affording a Miami education.
Armstrong Student Center
Our entire Miami family is joining together to support this initiative and honor Miami’s past by building
her future. Make a gift of $200 or more by June 30, 2012, and you will receive named recognition within
the Armstrong Student Center.
Miami Fund
Through supporting the Miami Fund, you provide undesignated support to the university that helps meet
its most immediate needs.
-> As always, you are welcome and encouraged to support any area of the university
you prefer. If you have not made your gift yet, please consider making a gift online
at www.ForLoveandHonor.org/GivetoMU.
