Fall 2018 October 5th, 2018 Issue II First-generation students speak up about their experiences Leah McCarthy SUNY CCC’s first ever First Generation Roundtable Event was held on September 20th' SUNY CCC students, faculty, and administration stepped up to the mic and shared what being a first gen. student meant for them. “It was not normal for girls in my family to pursue college,” Lee Gernert-Larrea, a psychology professor, shared. “Boys in my family jointed the military or went to college, but not girls. Girls stayed home to eventually marry and raise families.” Lee Gernert-Larrea was the first woman in her family to attend college and earn a degree and the first in her family with a graduate degree. Student Holly Gross is a mom of two and first in her family to pursue (continued on page 2) a college degree. During the roundtable, Holly shared some difficulties that have come with being the first to attend college, “It is a huge burden being the first because I want to set a good example to those younger in my family; I want them to attend college too and to see how much I have enjoyed learning.” Story Counts initiative. If you have a story that you would like to share, and would like to relate with other students just like you, then speak up! Follow the example of these first-gen. students and share your voice because all stories count and every voice matters. Others speaking on the panel, as well as many in the audience, could also relate to Holly’s experiences. The First Generation Roundtable was a wonderful outlet for people to share their stories and have their voices heard. It is part of CCC’s Every Entertainment and challenge: An opinion and guide to good musicals Ethan Bratti Note: This article is in reference to Modern Western Theater. Theater has existed (and continues to exist) in many capacities all over the world for thousands of years. Things change and that’s a fact- a fact everyone knows and few are very comfortable with. Theater, both musical and otherwise, is no exception to this. As an industry and as an art form, theater is changing at the same ever-accelerating pace as the rest of our culture has been since the advent of the information age. The shows are bigger, the lights are brighter, and the stars are ever more famous. Theaters in New York City’s Broadway district alone pull in more than 1 billion dollars annually in ticket sales, with comparable numbers pulled in from London’s West End. Many other US cities are also now supporting large performing arts scenes. So what’s the concern? If there’s money somewhere, it’s a healthy expectation to assume that there are corporate entities that will attempt to get a share of that wealth. Many believe that these gold rushes of large companies attempting to participate in an up-and-coming art form are what eventually rob it of its integrity, by overproducing and watering down the content. It’s also commonly refuted that this process is an important part of the growth of an artistic industry, as it makes the content more palatable and accessible to a wider amount of people. So how do these trends manifest in theater, specifically, musical theater? The general concern is that producers are sacrificing “good” theater for “spectacle” theater. “Good” theater is obviously incredibly subjective, but my best attempt at an objective definition of good theater is as follows: Good theater fulfills two functions: it entertains and it challenges. An audience should first and foremost be entertained by a show; however, it is equally as important that the show challenge what they know to be true. This is usually done by giving a platform to voices that the audience may not commonly listen to, or have ever heard before ( i.e. RENT, ‘96), or tell a story that would otherwise go untold (The Band's Visit, ‘17). For nearly 100 years now, Western theater has perfected the art of fulfilling both of these criteria, along the way creating the thriving industry we know it to be today. “Spectacle” theater focuses only on entertainment- and often tries to do as much as possible to impress its audience-think massive, intricate sets, complicated light and sound effects, large casts, or celebrity casting decisions. These shows really began to catch on at the turn of the century- think, The Lion King (‘97) or Wicked (‘03)- but the trend of these “megamusicals” can even be traced back to shows like The Phantom of the Opera (‘86). I’m not by any means trying to say that the stories told by these shows aren’t interesting, but I would argue that these stories are only interesting. In an attempt to justify ever climbing ticket prices, producers often demand that every minute of a show be jam packed with things that are visually striking, hoping that if they “wow” an audience enough, ticket buyers will feel that they’ve gotten their money’s worth. It’s a negative feedback system. As initial investments for musicals climb higher into the millions, the show requires an increasingly longer run and increasingly penetrative advertising in order to return on the investment, meaning the public will see much more of these mega-musicals than their more humble counterparts. I know it may not be concerning at face value — Who doesn’t want to be entertained? However, it’s important to note what is lost in this visual decadence: the challenge. Let's look at the hallmarks of the Golden Age of Musical Theater. Show Boat (‘27) features interracial marriage, a scandalous decision at the time. South Pacific (‘58) examines ways that racism exists in our own subconscious. Carousel's (‘45) topics include spousal abuse and suicide. Musicals in subsequent decades tell equally compelling stories -Finnian 's Rainbow (‘78) pits an entrepreneurial sharecropper against a bigoted politician. Hair (‘79), among the first rock musicals, protests the Vietnam War and promotes sexual liberation, (Continued on page 4) while telling the stories of a tribe of hippies. A Raisin in the Sun (‘59), Dreamgirls (‘81), and The Wiz (‘78) all gave significant artistic platforms to African Americans and allowed their voices to be heard by the then largely white audiences. Cabaret (‘72) examines the rise of Nazism in Germany, Chicago (‘75) is a musical with empowering female roles about issues with yellow journalism and the glamorization of murder in the media in the 1920’s. RENT (‘96) portrays realistic same-sex relationships, and also touches upon poverty, addiction, and the AIDS crisis. Much of the social climate that we have the privilege of living in today is the product of the ideas pushed by theater (as well as other art forms) in the 20th century. As producers focus on filling seats more than expanding minds, it’s possible that we will begin to lose the challenging aspects of theater, and subsequently the growth of our collective conscious may begin to slow, approaching a beautiful, entertaining monotony. All is not lost. At the end of the day there is no reason that “spectacle” theater and “good” theater cannot exist side by side, or together as one. The concern is that “spectacle” theater will weed out “good” theater by outselling it before they have the chance to work together. An examination of today’s Broadway climate suggests that theater that tells compelling stories from unique perspectives has not died. Smash hits, and subsequent winners of Tonys for Best Musical, Hamilton and Dear Evan Hansen are certainly entertaining, but not to the point that they have sacrificed their messages. Hamilton is a lengthy, impressively written hip-hop musical about the founding of our country, told through the eyes of Alexander Hamilton, with strong pro-immigration and feminist messages, and a directing team that has made notably inclusive casting decisions. Hamilton certainly has spectacular, larger-than-life, lighting and set design, as well as choreography, but it remains tight and focused, and never loses sight of the show’s message. Dear Evan Hansen tells the story of a high school student with severe social anxiety who gets caught in a web of lies following a suicide in his school. The show has among the best depictions of the power of social media and the true effects that the information age has had on the current generation of young people, while also telling stories of social anxiety and single motherhood. Dear Evan Hansen has a minimalist set and choreography, a decision which enhances the poignancy of the show’s messages. Hamilton and Dear Evan Hansen are very different shows, but I certainly deem both to be “good” because they both challenge their audiences. My concern lies with the increasing saturation of big budget “brand name” musicals. This past Tony award season saw Frozen, Spongebob Squarepants, and Mean Girls all gracing the stage as Best Musical nominees. Musicals such as these are spectacles- they’re entertaining, but as they’re based on existing films and have several layers of Boards, CEOs, and corporate investors pulling strings, they do little to contribute to the art form. It is, of course, pretentious to assume that every show must make a contribution to the art form or a social statement -- I can imagine many fans of these respective franchises will have newfound interest in musical theater thanks to these shows; however, I stand by my sentiment that the people making the big decisions should not be as separated from the final product as many of these corporate entities are. Granted, there certainly hasn’t been a shortage of compelling musicals recently either: see Hairspray (‘03) with its themes of civil rights, gender equality, and body positivity. See Spring Awakening (‘06) with its emphasis on the importance of truth and the rejection of censorship. See Kinky Boots (‘13) as it follows the struggles of drag queen and a shoe factory owner, or Fun Home (‘15) as it explores issues one can have with sexuality. These shows all challenge their audiences adequately and were met with critical acclaim and positive public reception. So at the end of the day, is there much to worry about? Is challenging theater dying? Perhaps not, but there are certainly things to be conscious of. We all consume art in some capacity -Do you want yours to be a distraction or an awakening? There’s no right answer, but you should know what your answer is. If you want spectacle, you have options. If you want to be challenged, you have options. The value, and quality, of art lies in the eyes of you and I, the beholders. So do some research and save up some cash to grab tickets to a Broadway show of your choice and support local theater too. SUNY CCC Muse of Fire Theater is performing It’s a Wonderful Life by Peter Van Doren Stern Nov 28 -Dec 1, and there are several community theater groups in the Corning Elmira area that would love to see you in their audience, to challenge you and what you thought you knew. If someone attempts to tell you theater is dying, tell them you know on good authority that it’s alive and doing better than ever. Student Government Association: The Senate Serena VanOsdol, Speaker of Senate There are so many different activities and organizations to be a part of here at SUNY CCC. If you're interested in science, there’s a club for that. Interested in Japanese culture? We’ve got a club for that too. How about looking into the past to preserve and protect historical documents. There’s a club for that too! With so many groups functioning on campus, do you ever wonder how they all fit together and function both alongside each other, as well as with the rest if the college as a whole? All of that is organized by the Senate. Each club nominates a senator who operates as a representative of their club, and together they form the Student Senate. They present ideas and projects to the Speaker of Senate (that’s me!) and then to the rest of the Student Association Executive Board. It's a group that fosters ingenuity, comradery, and leadership. The Senators of clubs partake in intra-club collaboration and competition. They focus on student involvement and sharing interests. In addition, they get a first look at what the other clubs are working on, and a space to bounce their ideas off everyone else. If this year around, you feel like you didn't get to participate in every club you would have liked to, the Senate is perfect for you. Just talk to your club advisor! The Senate has some pretty exciting events ahead. If you’d like to be a part of a varied leadership team, and a member of the student government here on campus, the Senate is absolutely the right place for you! If you’d like to join, notify the advisor of your club. I hope to see you soon! "I am not what I think I am. I am not what you think I am. I am what I think you think I am." Charles H. Cooley Kaitlyn Kowalski On September 26, 2018, SUNY Corning Community College held the semester’s first Leadership Academy session for students. In the Commons’ Triangle Lounge, the students were enlightened by one of the many guest speakers, Larry Parker. Having taken an Interpersonal Communications course, and with a major in psychology, opened with a prominent quote from Charles H. Cooley. Cooley, well-known for his concept of “the looking glass self,” or rather, that one’s selfunderstanding is influenced by his/her own perception of how other individuals within society perceive him/her, indicates, “I am not what I think I am. I am not what you think I am. I am what I think you think I am.” During this intriguing session held by the Leadership Academy, the participants were divided into two alphabetized partners. Partner A, detailed an impactful story describing their life thus far, while Partner B attentively listened and subsequently outlined their perception of the positive traits Partner A possessed. Then, the roles reversed. Accordingly, this experiment enhanced the positivity within each partners own respective “looking glass self” by reinforcing the individual’s perception of how they are viewed by others. The diversity of the atmosphere was astounding, and each individual had a unique life story to share within the welcoming ambience the SUNY CCC’s Leadership Academy provided. The Academy further elaborated the necessity of developing awareness of others and one’s self in order to successfully fulfill the role of a leader within society. This session contributed to selfawareness by bestowing on its members the Myers-Briggs Personality Test, which asks various questions to determine an individual’s tendencies towards: introversion or extroversion, sensing or intuition, thinking or feeling, and judging or perceiving. Becoming aware of the personality of your associates and yourself is imperative in the act of inferring which manner would be most ideal in relaying an order or circumstance to the diverse personality types of society’s workforce. SUNY CCC Assistant Dean of Student Services, Stacy Johnson, described capitalizing on coworker’s and manager’s strengths, using employees Ryan Steinberg and Isaac Buckley in an example. Their diverging Myers-Briggs personality types would lead to alternative approaches in planning an event. Director of Student Services, Steinberg follows the practical methodology of the Sensing aspect of the Myers-Briggs type while Isaac Buckley, Director of Athletics and head coach of the Red Barons’ Men’s Basketball Team, leans toward the spontaneous ideology of the Intuitive types. Thus, in a scenario where one would be planning an event, Steinberg would meticulously organize hors d'oeuvres (appetizers), but Buckley, might rely on the notion there would certainly be enough appetizers to accommodate the number of guests in attendance. Nonetheless, each Myers-Briggs personality type is uniquely equipped to encounter, for better or for worse, scenarios in and outside of the workforce, making an understanding of each integral to leading a business to success through effective division of roles and responsibilities. Johnson highlighted how over the course of one’s life their personality may be influenced by various experiences that shape the individual. Better self-awareness and adaptation to new scenarios (continued on page 8) make a leader better equipped to face the world, and the Leadership Academy aids the learner in just that. Steinberg encouraged that we reflect as “we interact with each other, with people in classes, or just out and about in life,” and recommends “Lollipop Moments,” a 6 minute Ted Talk inspiring insight into how even the smallest interaction with someone could have a strong impact on their life. If you desire to become a leader, enhance your communication skills, resolve conflicts, set goals, and manage both time and stress through moments of hardship, then SUNY CCC’s Leadership Academy may be right for you. “Each week,” Steinberg informed students, “we’ll be sharing motivational and leadership tips, suggestions, words of encouragement, etc. to take with you back to your groups [clubs, organization, teams, or staff].” Stacy, Isaac, and Ryan would like to thank everyone for joining the first Red Baron Leadership Course this past Wednesday. “Really excited by the energy everyone had and the conversations that occurred!” Steinberg indicated, the team is “looking forward to our next session on Wednesday, October 17th at 6pm.” He emphasized that members should “Please remember to read chapters 1-3 in your leadership book [The Truth About Leadership: The No-fads, Heart-of-the-Matter Facts You Need to Know] for our first book discussion.” Even if you did not attend the first session and have yet to register, it is still possible to become a member of the Academy! For more information, and to register, search “Red Baron Leadership Academy” on SUNY CCC’s website (www.corning-cc.edu) and visit the registration page or email Student Life. Steinberg encourages that “If you have any questions,” to “please let Stacy, Isaac, or me know!” Members receive Academy gear ( Red Barons Leadership Academy T-shirt and The Truth About Leadership: The No-fads, Heart-of-the-Matter Facts You Need to Know, by James Kouzes and Barry Posner ) and a complimentary dinner, so lead your way to the next session, and we’ll see you there! Transformers: Bumblebee Jake Gross This December Transformers fans will roll out to the movies when Bumblebee hits theaters. In the past week, two new trailers dropped for the first ever solo Transformers movie, and it isn’t surprising that the first bot to get the center stage is the fan favorite, yellow Autobot scout. Debuting in the first few episodes of the 1984 cartoon (known in continuity as G1), the small bot has been on the forefront defending Earth and mankind from the Decepticons ever since. In 1986, when the animated Transformers the Movie entered theaters (which was Hasbro’s way of promoting new toys by killing the old characters), “Bee,” along with fellow Autobots Cliffjumper and Jazz, were originally going to be destroyed by the planet killer, Unicron. Hasbro, near the end of production, changed its mind. For this latest movie, however, things are not so cut and dry. In the latest trailer we’re greeted by a very G1 influenced red and beige Deception “Seeker” charging towards Bumblebee, who at the moment has taken the alternate form of a Jeep Willys. Unfortunately for most fans, that Seeker has been confirmed as Blitzwing, instead of Starscream, for Bayverse (the live action movie universe) continuity. However, they’ve had a very sketchy track record with the concept, so it could change. Blitzwing grabs Bee by the neck and asks him “Where’s Optimus Prime?!” before dropping Bee off a cliff. After hitting the bottom, Bee manages to scan his classic G1 alt mode of a Volkswagen Beetle. Forty seconds further in the trailer, after Hailee Steinfeld’s character Charlie Watson finds Bumblebee in a junkyard, the pair are walking through a section of redwoods. Charlie activates a hologram of Autobot leader Optimus Prime that is taken straight from G1, voiced by the magnificent Peter Cullen. “..Pray this message finds you... (continued on page 10) Our war wages on,” Prime’s static-filled voice states. A quick view follows of G1 Cybertron and Prime observing a trio of Seekers flying past. We get a look at a pair of Con Triplechangers named Shatter and Dropkick approaching a group of humans from Sector 7, the organization from the first Bayverse movie back in 2007. John Cena’s character, who is known simply as Burns, looks on as Shatter attempts to convince Sector 7 that Bee is a criminal. This is the first time that a female Transformer has acted as the main antagonist in any movie, and the first time since 2009’s Revenge of the Fallen that a female Transformer is featured at all. Dropkick then proceeds to whisper to Shatter, “We ’ll burn the whole planet to cinders.” (Never trust a De-cepticon!) The next section shows S7’s second engagement with Bee, who proceeds to kick tailpipe while protecting Charlie and his earlier fight against Blitzwing. We then get a G1 perfect sequence of the De-cepticon officer Soundwave “Ha, who is this Starscream twerp you speak of?” deploying his minicon Ravage against Prime, who then punches Ravage in the face. Prime’s voice monologues over the footage slightly saying “..you must protect Earth and its people.” A few gratuitous clips of Charlie and the other humans and some comic relief round out the trailer. The beginning of the second trailer sets the movie’s location in San Francisco as the Golden Gate flashes past (cliche much?) and Charlie bikes along the wharf. Charlie is then seen exploring a junkyard until she stumbles upon Bee. Most of this specific trailer is dialogue from the characters. However, one awesome shot of G1 Shockwave can be enjoyed as he points his weapon off screen, as well as several other Decepticons including Shatter. Bumblebee transforms and rolls out this winter holiday season. CCC Red Barons vs. FLCC Lakers Kaitlyn Kowalski It Was the Heat of the Moment SUNY Corning Community College faced off against Finger Lakes Community College last Saturday, September 29, 2018. The Red Barons' Men's Soccer Team suffered a loss of 1-5 to the FLCC Lakers in the sweltering sun, the atmosphere having changed from the chilling 12 loss of the Women's Soccer Team to their FLCC opponents moments before. Until the very end, the Barons resisted and combatted further goals made by FLCC, yet, without avail, they struggled to succeed in the acquisition of multiple goals against the Lakers' robust defense. Lakers Flood the Field Within 15 minutes of the first half, the FLCC offense seized (#15) third ciously stumble the deOffense re- had disassembled the Barons defense. The Lakers rapidly three goals: at 36:58 FLCC freshman midfielder Gabe Martinez scored the first goal, 35:41 -- second goal, and by 34:33, the goal was made by FLCC. Notably, the Barons' defense tena-strived to ward off the third goal of the evening in spite of a by the CCC Goalie Tyler Morehouse (#0). Following this slip up, fense was quick to prevent the first attempt of the FLCC for this goal. After regaining his footing, the CCC goalkeeper turned to his post, in anticipation of their next play. However, the Lakers maintained control of the soccer throughout the play and were set-up for their second strike; thus, FLCC had secured, already, a 3-0 lead contra the CCC Men's Soccer Team. Nevertheless, after further failed attempts by both CCC and FLCC in pursuit of subsequent goals, freshman midfielder Matt Kays (#1) obtained the first goal for the Red Barons with 8:37 minutes left of the half. With a score of 1-3, the Red Barons continued to valiantly defend their goal from the Lakers. Each team, despite gaining ground towards the opposing goal every so often, did not score a point for the three minutes following the Barons' first goal of the evening. Still, the FLCC Lakers rushed the final goal of the first half, scored by sophomore striker (S) Gabriel Mendoza; this goal zoomed past CCC's Sophomore GoalKeeper (#0) and granted the Finger Lakes a 4 -1 lead over the Red Barons. (continued on page 12) Too Little, Too Late At the closure of the second half, one more goal was made by the Lakers’ Men’s Soccer Team --35:02, ending the game with a 1-5 loss for the Barons. Throughout the second half, the Baron’s defense repelled the FLCC offense and remained guarded as to prevent an FLCC exploitation of an easy opening. Even so, moments of offensive play for the Barons over the entirety of the game were somewhat concentrated in closer proximity to their own goal, leaving few midfield players poised to keep control of the soccer as their defense propelled the ball over to the opposing side. Thus, the Lakers’ Goalkeeper often secured control over the soccer before the Barons’ Offense had intercepted the shielding pass from their own defensive players. Cards on the Table Various plays were hindered by the personal injuries and fouls of both teams. There were moments where the Red Barons had a convenient set-up for an offensive strike, only to have it be revoked by the tumbling yellow card of an overbearing referee. Numerous players took spills over the course of the game, and some, like sophomore defense Evan Kuhl (#10) from CCC and sophomore center Derek McArthur (#3) from FLCC, were taken off the field in light of injury. Red Barons’ #10, was, as on-goers described, “sandwiched” between two players as their heads collided, resulting in a possible head injury. #3 from FLCC, was seen donning an ice-pack and leaving the stadium with, none other than the Lakers’ freshman defense Nathan Sanford (#6), who was given a red card for an altercation with Corning’s freshman defender Peter Bruce-Allington (#22); he was also given red card and removed from the field, dejectedly. Though it is unclear who started the dispute, there are speculations it was the Lakers’ #6, and this ruined the potential for the Barons’ to make a shot. Their close proximity and position was ideal for a second goal, yet the conflict between the two players rescinded the chance for the set-up to play out. Maintain Ground, Don’t Drown As the massive audience filed out of the bleachers and to their respective transportation, a resounding “YEAH BUDDY!” boomed from the Lakers on the hike to their bus back to FLCC. They proved themselves worthy competition for the SUNY CCC Red Barons, and here’s to the next time these rivals go head to head in another tense, riveting match. The audience was left anticipating the next direction of the match as the control of the ball rapidly switched from team to team. A match to remember, these teams certainly established that they were in it for the long game and ran the field, win or lose.
