Title IX: Educate & Advocate Webcast: Lily Gould (Feb. 27, 2023)
Description:
This is the recording of the Title IX: Educate & Educate Webcast with Springfield College student Lily Gould (Class of 2024). It was recorded in the Karpovich Room of the Springfield College Learning Commons on February 27, 2023. It is about 27 minutes long. This is one of the webcasts created by Dr. Kathy Mangano during her time as a Distinguished Professor of Humanics. Webcasts were dropped on the 9th of every month from September 2022 to April 2023. The webcasts consisted of interviews conducted with a diverse group of individuals (e.g., expert/historian, researcher, sexual assault victim, students, former coach, athletic directors, and a/our Title IX coordinator). The Interviewees provided educational information, told a personal story about how Title IX impacted them, and shared one piece of advice on how to advocate for Title IX. Humanics is a word that has a special meaning in the history and philosophy of Springfield College, as well as in the college’s motto of “Spirit, Mind, and Body.” The Oxford English Dictionary defines Humanics as, “the subject or study of human affairs or relations, especially of the human element of a problem or situation as opposed to the mechanical.” In 1962, Dr. Glenn Olds, President of Springfield College at the time, began to wonder why this name was given to the intended philosophy of the college by Dr. Laurence Locke Doggett, Springfield College’s first full-time president. Olds acknowledged that the practices of the faculty were in large part consistent with the Humanics philosophy, but he believed that a more self-conscious application would improve chances of its continuity and survival. To ensure this, a Distinguished Professor of Humanics position was created at the college, first filled by Dr. Seth Arsenian from 1966-1969. The purpose of this position was to catalyze a renewal of consciousness in the philosophy. This was done by annually mandating the Distinguished Professor of Humanics to give a Humanics lecture on the definition of Humanics and what the concept means to them. Arsenian started this tradition in 1967 with his speech titled, “The Meaning of Humanics,” in which he described the concept as a set of ideas, values, and goals that make our college distinct from other colleges and make commitment and unity toward commonly sought goals possible.
