In May 2016, the Indiana University Bloomington Office of Student Life and Learning announced a substantial gift from alumnus Scott D. MacDonald to establish the MacDonald Scholars Program within the Division of Student Affairs. IU's MacDonald Scholars work to help others through innovative and impactful community service projects.
“I found in going around the state and meeting with organizations, they didn't want to talk to one another," states Don Melloy of his experience in the late ‘60s and early ‘70s in organizing Arc chapters in Indiana. The original focus of The Arc was to provide programs for children with disabilities excluded from public school. Don found parent groups didn’t always include all children with disabilities. “But they in themselves had barriers in their minds that it wasn't all handicapped children. There was some distinction between degrees of handicap. And those were artificial barriers that kept rising over the many years of development,” explains Don.
In addition to talking about The Arc's early focus on education, Don discusses Arc's movement away from sheltered workshops to community employment. Don himself was reluctant when it was suggested his daughter Cindy could have a community job. However, after seeing Cindy thrive in her job, Don said it was the best thing he and his wife ever did in agreeing to let Cindy find a community job.
Don discusses hiring John Dickerson as The Arc's executive director. “He had the personality that would challenge the old school all the time.” That is something Don admired about John, even if he didn’t always agree with him. Don says, “You have to have people coming in to any organization that are willing to take a look at it from a different point of view." Don was interviewed in 2017.
Kathy Christoff and Bill Gilkey talk about the changes they have seen in Indiana mental health services since the 1960s. They discuss the development of mental health centers, improvements in medications, and the success of employment programs. Kathy, an administrator with the community-based behavioral health care provider Centerstone, was interviewed in 2014. Bill, a retired psychologist, was interviewed in 2013.
“He put me in the nursing home, and I didn’t like that very much,” explains Ruth Ann. When Ruth Ann’s grandmother passed away, her father was unable to care for Ruth Ann and placed her in a nursing home. Ruth Ann found it depressing. While attending the New Hope workshop, Ruth Ann started questioning a friend about what it was like to live in a group home. Ruth Ann decided to tell her caseworker she wanted to move to a group home, and her father agreed to the move. After living in the group home for a while, Ruth Ann was ready to try supported living. When she was told no because she needed too many supports, she contacted a lawyer to help her move out. Eventually, Ruth Ann moved into a home with two other roommates, with staffing 24 hours a day. She was interviewed in 2017.
Imago is a prototypic 'next-generation' digital repository that is dynamically linked to the collection management databases supported by a unique partnership between the IU Libraries and the Center for Biological Research Collections. Imago is the next stage in the metamorphosis of research data that are currently housed, in the form of physical collection objects, in the collections of the Indiana University Herbarium, the Indiana University Paleontology Collection, and the William R. Adams Zooarchaeology Lab. By taking advantage of dynamic cyberinfrastructure, high-throughput digitization workflows are enabled to build preservation-quality digital research products (3D scans, scanned 35 mm film, specimen photographs etc.), robust metadata integration, and robust linkages to propagate changes in taxonomy, georeferencing, or other augmentations to the existing metadata. Imago also greatly facilitates the discoverability of these collection objects and their metadata to the broader scientific and public community by providing a versatile framework that readily interacts with the API of large-scale biodiversity data aggregators, online curated galleries of images and 3D objects, and citizen-science platforms.
Episode 54 features a discussion with Adam Maltese and grad student Joey Huang about "the MILL," a creative space at IU Bloomington for tinkering, crafting, prototyping, and exploring creative solutions to pedagogical problems.
"We had legislators who came in and talked to people about how to communicate with a legislator, how to write to legislators." The Indiana Governor's Council for People with Disabilities (GCPD) had its first Partners in Policymaking graduation class in 1991. Partners in Policymaking was a leadership training program for adults with disabilities and parents. In this video, retired GCPD Executive Director Suellen Jackson-Boner, Paul Shankland, Betty Williams, and Judy Patterson talk about the role of the program and its impact on graduates. The program was created in Minnesota and adapted nationally.

The Neuroscience and Power of Safe Relationships - Smart Couple 116
https://relationshipschool.com/podcast/the-neuroscience-power-of-safe-relationships-stephen-w-porges-sc-116/
Have you ever wondered why you struggle to learn something new when you are stressed? Do you wonder why you or your partner are so damn sensitive? Well, there's a scientific reason for all of this and in this week's episode, I interview the leading authority on the autonomic nervous system and the man who developed the polyvagal theory, Stephen Porges. He's a real pioneer and someone who cares a lot about you feeling safe, in life, and in your relationships. Stephen Porges is about to give you a big download on why you might not feel safe and what you can do about it. Bottom line? We cover the neuroscience of safe relationships and how to create them.

It was a "stark" and "demoralizing" environment. From 1977 to 1980, Randy Krieble worked at Muscatatuck State Hospital and Training Center, as it was known at the time. In this video excerpt from a 2012 interview, he shares what a day in the life of a person living there might have been like in the late 1970s. Later, as a state official, Randy facilitated the closure the institution, located in Butlerville, Indiana. The last residents left Muscatutuck State Developmental Center in 2005.
Author and Boston University Professor William McKeen joins Through the Gates to discuss his new book "Everybody Had an Ocean," as well as The Beach Boys, Charles Manson, and the music and mayhem of the 1960s.
The Avalon Media System is an open source system for managing and providing access to large collections of digital audio and video. The project is led by the libraries of Indiana University Bloomington and Northwestern University and is funded in part by a two-year grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
Avalon is in the process of migrating digital repositories from Fedora 3 to Fedora 4 and incorporating metadata statements using the Resource Description Framework (RDF) instead of XML files accompanying the digital objects in the repository. Julie Hardesty at Indiana University and Jen Young at Northwestern University, the metadata portion of the Avalon project team, are working on a plan to migrate descriptive metadata from MODS XML to RDF. This talk will cover the planning process to date and how this step with Avalon informs a similar migration process of IU's digital library collections from Fedora 3 to Fedora 4.
A member of the Fort Wayne neighborhood association where a new group home was going in telephoned Steve Hinkle. "'You know,' he said, 'just three houses down the road, there's a Cadillac that sits in a driveway.' And I said 'Well, I think that's really important because I've got a new van that's going be sitting there and I don't want it to be a sloppy neighborhood.'" Starting in 1976, Steve was instrumental in placing former residents of Fort Wayne State Developmental Center into some of Indiana's first group homes. Steve was President/CEO of Easter Seals Arc of Northeast Indiana for 34 years. In this video excerpt of a 2012 interview, he describes early group home development as both an exciting time of transition and a struggle with barriers such as zoning regulations and neighbor attitudes.
In episode 51, producer Julie Snyder joins Through the Gates to talk about binge-worthy journalism and her experiences with S-Town and Serial, two of the most successful podcast programs in recent history.
E.J. Dionne, columnist for The Washington Post, helps us ring in the 50th episode with a discussion on the polarization of politics and the importance of empathy.
Until recently, the Variations Digital Music Library provided online access to approximately 30,000 selected recordings and scores from the Indiana University Cook Music Library. First implemented in 1996 with support from IBM and later revised thanks to grants from the National Science Foundation, National Endowment for the Humanities and the Institute for Museum and Library Services, it served the students and faculty of the Jacobs School of Music until its retirement in January of 2017, prompted by the end of life of one piece of its underlying technology. The recordings hosted in Variations have been migrated to Media Collections Online in 2016.
Variations addressed real teaching and learning needs beyond the basic features of discovery and access; migrating the Variations materials to a different tool is only one aspect of the change that this transition represents to Variations users and support staff. Other important aspects to consider are gaps in functionality. Some new features have been implemented in Avalon, the system powering MCO, to address some of the gaps.
In this talk we will discuss the transition, the features added to Avalon prompted by the Variations use cases, the remaining functionality gaps we intend to address, and how MCO is being received by faculty and students.
“I wish I had recorded all the stories that we heard during those interviews,” stated Bettye Dunham on interviewing Muscatatuck State Hospital and Training Center residents for jobs at the Jennings Training Center in the 1970s. She talked to residents about life at the institution, their work experience, and what dreams they had for the future. Bettye found the residents wanted to work because they wanted to contribute to their own well-being and it gave them something meaningful to do. In this clip, she shares a few stories from those interviews. Bettye was interviewed in 2013.
In episode 49, New York Times columnist and IU Poynter Center Chair Roger Cohen joins us to discuss post-election politics and the importance of investigative journalism.

Summary:
Don Preston was interviewed by Melanie Hughes as part of the Floyd County Bicentennial Oral History Project, which commemorates Indiana's bicentennial by recording the past and present experiences of New Albany and Floyd County residents. During the interview, Mr. Preston covers his experience growing up in New Albany, including his childhood attending New Albany public schools, and growing up in his parents' business (which he transitioned from a home decorating business to a fine arts supply and art instruction business, Preston Arts Center. He also discusses his experience as a conscientious objector to the Vietnam War.
The practice of text mining in digital humanities is phallogocentric. Text mining, a particular kind of data mining in which predictive methods are deployed for pattern discovery in texts is primarily focused on pre-assumed meanings of The Word. In order to determine whether or not the machine has found patterns in text mining, we begin with a “ground truth” or labels that signify the presence of meaning. This work typically presupposes a binary logic between lack and excess (Derrida, Dissemination, 1981). There is meaning in the results or there is not. Sound, in contrast, is aporetic. To mine sound is to understand that ground truth is always indeterminate. Humanists have few opportunities to use advanced technologies for analyzing sound archives, however. This talk describes the HiPSTAS (High Performance Sound Technologies for Access and Scholarship) Project, which is developing a research environment for humanists that uses machine learning and visualization to automate processes for analyzing sound collections. HiPSTAS engages digital literacy head on in order to invite humanists into concerns about machine learning and sound studies. Hearing sound as digital audio means choosing filter banks, sampling rates, and compression scenarios that mimic the human ear.
Unless humanists know more about digital audio analysis, how can we ask, whose ear we are modeling in analysis? What is audible, to whom? Without knowing about playback parameters, how can we ask, what signal is noise? What signal is meaningful? To whom? Clement concludes with a brief discussion about some observations on the efficacy of using machine learning to facilitate generating data about spoken-word sound collections in the humanities.
The Troubadour Melodies Database is a Drupal-platform site that includes basic information about and transcriptions of the extant troubadour melodies as they are found in the 13th-14th century manuscripts preserving the tradition. The melodies are encoded using alpha-numeric strings designed for the font Volpiano, developed by David Hiley and Fabian Weber. The site gives basic information on the manuscripts and troubadours themselves as well as tables showing concordances and totals of melodies by troubadour, manuscript, genre, and catalog number. In addition to gathering the melodies and information about the corpus in one place, the database also provides the ability to search the melodies using a search tool based on Jan KolÌÀÂek's original Melody Search Tool, designed for his own chant database, which allows for three searches (beginning, anywhere, and end) of the melodies in the database. Further, having the melodies encoded has allowed for analysis and comparison of the melodies in terms of their characteristics using tools like AntConc to generate concordances, find collocates, etc. Modification of the Melody Search Tool's PHP script has also allowed the generation of intervallic profiles of the melodies, creating further opportunities for analysis for any melodies encoded in Volpiano.
"I couldn't see myself making a career standing bagging somebody's groceries," Melody Cooper explains. Starting her employment at Goodwill Industries and then at a Meijer store, Melody was hired by The Arc of Indiana. She attributes her career growth directly to Partners in Policymaking training that led to her becoming active in Self-Advocates of Indiana (SAI). After SAI's Betty Williams encouraged her, Melody had started attending meetings in 2000. "So yes, I have come a long way." She was interviewed in Indianapolis in 2013.
Quantitative and survey research depends heavily on large sample sizes, but there are a variety of reasons why larger sample sizes may not be possible. In this webinar, FSSE and NSSE staff will discuss common challenges associated with assessing the experiences of small populations and explore possible solutions for those working toward improving the experiences of small populations. Participants will also learn about methods for communicating the validity and data quality from small sample sizes. The approaches presented in this webinar are applicable to NSSE, FSSE, and BCSSE data, and we encourage participants to submit any specific questions or topics you have when you register.

"I joke with everybody that I take a day, I sit at home with a two-liter bottle of Diet Pepsi and a huge box of tissues and I read all the essays,” recounts Donna about the Attitude Essay Contest. The contest encourages elementary and middle school students to write about their own attitudes or the attitudes of others. Donna says, “I firmly believe -- and the essays prove -- kids want to focus on what is the same, what is similar, what do they have in common with somebody, not what is something that's going to put up a barrier to them.” Donna Roberts, retired Executive Director of United Cerebral Palsy Association of Greater Indiana, was interviewed in 2013.
