This Wednesday marks the end of the first quarter, and many clubs are quiet this week. We hope it has been a fruitful beginning to the year for all members of the Hunter College High School community. Submissions for next week's issue are due Friday, November 13th at 3pm. We encourage students AND faculty involved in activities at Hunter to submit announcements to HOW! HOW is emailed to the personal email addresses of over 3000 members of the Hunter community using Net Directories and Naviance. HOW is also emailed to all faculty members and posted online at http://hunteronlineweekly.blogspot.com/ Have a great week!

EVENTS AT HUNTER COLLEGE OPEN TO HCHS STUDENTS

Shock and Awe: The Troubling Legacy of the Futurist Cult of War
Panel Discussion at the Kaye Playhouse at Hunter College
November 11th from 4-8pm
On the occasion of Performa 09, which this year marks the 100th anniversary of the launch of Futurism, the Roosevelt House Public Policy Institute at Hunter College, the Hunter College Department of Art, and Performa present “Shock and Awe: The Troubling Legacy of the Futurist Cult of War,” an interdisciplinary symposium organized by Emily Braun, Distinguished Professor, Hunter College. This symposium addresses the uneasy, if powerful, alliance of art and politics. Experts from across the humanities and social sciences ask the questions: how and why was modernism used to legitimize and celebrate modern warfare, especially dominance from the air. This symposium is a must for those interested in the use and aesthetics and visual representation in the shaping of public opinion.

FROM THE PTA

Dr. Patsy Cooper, a faculty member in the Department of Teaching and Learning at New York University, will examine the skills parents can use to guide their teenagers through the non-academic aspects of a highly pressured high school environment.
Also, Dr. Eileen Coppola will review the school's Mission Statement emanating from the Middle States accreditation process, and faculty members will be on hand to answer questions about this statement of Hunter's core beliefs.

Student Email Distribution
As a way of sharing the HOW newsletter with students, we will be using student email addresses in the online Parent Directory as another method of distribution. PARENTS - please log in (www.hunterpta.org, click on Parent Directory)and update your child's email ID. You may "hide" it from public view if you wish. In the near future, we will send a welcome message to students with login details so they, too, can use the online Parent Directory to search for fellow schoolmates. Students will have search capabilities only, not editing functions.
