Graduate English Committee presents: Ingmar Bergman's Persona
The Graduate English Committee (GEC) is a new student organization for fostering a social yet academically focused community amongst M.A. English, M.F.A. Creative Writing and M.A. English Teacher students.
The GEC is hosting a screening of Ingmar Bergman's 1966 classic Persona on Thursday, November 29th in room 3146 Boylan Hall. The film will begin after Thursday night classes (8pm-ish) with some introductory comments from students. The film is a little under an hour and a half so you can get home at a reasonable time. Some refreshment provided but feel free to bring your own snacks and drinks.
From the imdb.com description:
“A young nurse, Alma, is put in charge of Elisabeth Vogler: an actress who is seemingly healthy in all respects, but will not talk. As they spend time together, Alma speaks to Elisabeth constantly, never receiving any answer. Alma eventually confesses her secrets to a seemingly sympathetic Elisabeth and finds that her own personality is being submerged into Elisabeth's persona.”

Spring GIP Grants Available
The Graduate Investment Program, through the Dean of Research and Graduate Studies, has announced that they are accepting applications for GIP Research and Travel Grants. These grants allow Master's level students to solicit funds for research materials and travel necessities. Several BC English students received GIP grants during the fall semester (stay tuned for details from these students on their research projects), and all it takes is filling out a simple application. You should have received information through your e-mail regarding eligibility requirements and application materials, but if not, these e-mails are reproduced below. If you have questions about how to proceed, contact your friendly blog host for information.

The Dean of Research and Graduate Studies announces the availability of research funds for master's students. The funds will allow masters-level graduate students to purchase items/supplies beneficial to their academic progress in their degree program.
This program has been made possible by the City University of New York in an effort to improve services to graduate students through the Graduate Investment Program (GIP). The college has the opportunity to help graduate students to enrich their graduate experience by encouraging them to participate in research related to their academic studies.
Qualifying applicants must be matriculated graduate students with a G.P.A. of 3.0 or above. Students requesting funding for Intersession/Early Spring semester must be registered for classes in the Spring, 2008 semester.
Applicants must have completed a minimum of six (6) Brooklyn College graduate credits in the program in which they are currently registered.
Graduate Investment Program funds can not be applied towards items previously purchased. Please review the materials you are requesting so that they are what you really need for your project. If your application is approved, only the items from your initial request may be purchased. Certain equipment such as cameras, software licenses and other permanent items will remain the property of the student's department once the project is complete.
Students may receive the GIP Research Award no more than twice.
