Historic Sugar Mills in Santo Domingo: Case Studies in Adaptive Reuse
by Jaime Correa Carmen GuerreroDistributed by University Press of Florida on behalf of the Brian Canin Urban Design AwardColonial sugar mills, ingenios coloniales, are essential to the material history of the Dominican Republic. They served as a cornerstone of the national economy and as a foundation for the stability required during the colonial era. From the 1500s to the end of the 1800s, sugar mills and sugar factories were founded and sustained in what is now known as “La Ruta del Azucar,” or the Sugar Road. Colonial sugar mills not only represent a significant period in the country's history, but they also hold significant cultural and architectural value.In this volume, students at the School of Architecture of the University of Miami explore what is left of some of the most important ingenios coloniales in the Dominican Republic and, through an innovative approach of adaptive reuse, propose alternatives to celebrate their architectural value and cultural influences while also exploring the socio-economic and racial disparities and the political ideologies that are part of the history of these sites. The students approached the project with a spirit of innovation and the desire to document histories and possibilities for future generations in the Dominican Republic and to leave behind a legacy for new students to do similar work in urban and rural environments.
Vision and Resilience: A Story of Remarkable Growth and Transformation at Penn State Erie, The Behrend College
by Joseph M. Beilein Jr.Vision and Resilience recounts the remarkable turnaround of a satellite campus that became one of the brightest spots in the Penn State University system: Penn State Erie, The Behrend College. Covering the period from 1980 to 2010, this story serves as a blueprint for administrators who aspire to grow their institutions in challenging times.Joseph M. Beilein Jr. writes about how, at a time when tensions were high between faculty and the administration, students and the administration, students and the police, and even among the students themselves, The Behrend College saw an unprecedented increase in enrollment, endowments, land acquisition, building, and curricular opportunities. He describes how administrators John Lilley and Jack Burke worked with local leaders, faculty, and other officials to transform The Behrend College into a research institution—and how they worked with faculty, coaches, and even students to convince young people that Behrend was, in fact, a destination campus. All of these efforts resulted in a college that bucked trends in higher education, demography, and economics to become the leading college in northwestern Pennsylvania.Fascinating and instructive, Vision and Resilience tells an encouraging story of college success against the odds. It will be of interest to university administrators, faculty, and anyone with a personal connection to the Penn State campus farthest from University Park.

Reading for Our Lives: The Urgency of Early Literacy and the Action Plan to Help Your Child
by Maya Payne SmartCompletely revised and updated! Now in paperback. An award-winning journalist and literacy advocate provides a clear, step-by-step guide to helping your child thrive as a reader and a learnerToday&’s children face intense pressure to meet rising academic standards and prepare for future careers, but most fall dangerously short. Early struggles with language and literacy often snowball into lasting disadvantages. Millions of U.S. kids don&’t learn to read well in elementary school, driving low adult literacy rates and threatening the nation&’s economic productivity, public health, and social equity.In Reading for Our Lives, journalist Maya Payne Smart shows that the literacy crisis starts at home. Too many parents expect schools to unlock their child&’s reading potential, unaware that even the best classroom instruction (which most don&’t get) can&’t make up for weak early preparation or inconsistent support outside of school. Smart breaks down the latest research to show parents how to do their part to build essential literacy skills. She busts the myth that bedtime stories are parents&’ greatest contribution to kids&’ reading development. She advocates instead for weaving a range of simple, fun, free literacy habits and activities into everyday family life—and shows you how to do it.With optimism and evidence, Reading for Our Lives delivers a clear call to action and a path forward for families, schools, and communities to beat the literacy crisis together.
