Dear CCA Colleague,
We have a June primary election coming up and it is critical we WIN big. That means we need to work together, and there are many ways community college and K-12 leaders can work together. All statewide offices are up for election, including governor and superintendent of public instruction, as well as state senate, assembly and local school board seats.
By now, you’ve most likely heard that outside moneyed interests with a coordinated agenda—to privatize jobs and take away the rights of college faculty and students—have contributed $9.5 million to Antonio Villaraigosa, the gubernatorial candidate who will get them what they want. And if the 2016 election is any indication, when they spent more than $30 million on elections, there’s a lot more money yet to come.
To fight the attacks on community colleges and public education that are coming from multiple fronts we have to work together to elect the right candidates for our students and for our profession.
Our top election priorities for 2018 are clear:
Elect Bay Area Assembly Member Tony Thurmond as the next state superintendent of public instruction (SPI). The issues that affect K-12 students become our issues when students come to community college.
Elect Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom as our next governor to continue California’s era of pro public-education leadership in Sacramento.
Elect local legislative candidates.
It’s important to exercise your right to vote. So, get involved and talk to your colleagues and students. This Campaign site has everything you need to know plus tools you can use.
What can you do now?
Stay informed, monitor the news and support our candidates on social media. Check out the CTA Campaign 2018 website. You will find campaign resources and materials, videos to get to know the candidates, social media graphics and tools, posters and more.
Want to stay connected by text? Simply text VotePublicEd to 69866.
Our colleges, our students, our candidates, our rights, our votes. This campaign is about all of this, and so much more. We are now on the long road to victory. Join us! Our communities are counting on us.

FDA has recently approved the FoundationFocus™ CDx BRCA LOH. This was originally approved as a companion diagnostic designed to detect the presence of mutations in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes. The laboratory test can also be used to detect the percentage of genomic loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in tumor tissue samples from patients with ovarian cancer. BRCA1 and BRCA2 stand for Breast Cancer, early onset genes 1 and 2, which are also associated with ovarian cancer. LOH is a genetic event that occurs in many cancer types, and results in the loss of one allele (or copy) of a genetic locus. Patients with BRCA mutations or a high percentage of LOH are classified as positive for homologous recombination deficiency (HRD), which means cells are less able to repair harmful breaks on both strands of DNA. If BRCA mutations are detected or patients have positive HRD status, the patients may be considered for treatment with Rubraca (rucaparib). |

Thursday, April 26, 2018
4:00 PM - 5:30 PM
10383 Bunche Hall, UCLA
Talk by Jaeeun Kim, University of Michigan
Jaeeun Kim will talk about her award-winning book Contested Embrace: Transborder Membership Politics in Twentieth-Century Korea (Stanford University Press, 2016).
Contested Embrace is a comparative, historical, and ethnographic study of the complex relationships among the states in the Korean peninsula, colonial-era Korean migrants to Japan and northeast China and their descendants, and the states in which they have resided over the course of the twentieth century. Extending the constructivist approach to nationalisms and the culturalist view of the modern state to a transnational context, Contested Embrace illuminates the political and bureaucratic construction of ethno-national populations beyond the territorial boundary of the state. Through a comparative analysis of transborder membership politics in the colonial, Cold War, and post-Cold War periods, the book shows how the configuration of geopolitics, bureaucratic techniques, and actors'' agency shapes the making, unmaking, and remaking of transborder ties. Kim demonstrates that being a "homeland" state or a member of the "transborder nation" is a precarious, arduous, and revocable political achievement. The talk will flesh out these claims through the analysis of (1) South Korea’s effort to create its own docile citizens out of ethnic Koreans in Japan in the fierce competition with North Korea; and (2) South Korea’s effort to control its territorial and membership boundary from ethnic Korean “return” migrants from China.
Jaeeun Kim is Assistant Professor of Sociology at the University of Michigan. She was a postdoctoral fellow at Princeton (2011–2012) and Stanford (2012–2013), and a former member at the Institute for Advanced Study (2016–2017). Her book won multiple book awards from the American Sociological Association and the Social Science History Association.

Please join the USC U.S.-China Institute and USC professor Brett Sheehan for a discussion on the evolution of Chinese capitalism chronicling the fortunes of the Song family of North China under five successive authoritarian governments.
Industrial Eden: A Chinese Capitalist Vision
Date: Thursday, April 26
Time: 4:00-5:30pm
Location: Taper Hall (THH) 210
Free.
About the Book
Industrial Eden: A Chinese Capitalist Vision is an illuminating study of the evolution of Chinese capitalism chronicles the fortunes of the Song family of North China under five successive authoritarian governments. Headed initially by Song Chuandian, who became rich by exporting hairnets to Europe and America in the early twentieth century, the family built a thriving business against long odds of rural poverty and political chaos.
A savvy political operator, Song Chuandian prospered and kept local warlords at bay, but his career ended badly when he fell afoul of the new Nationalist government. His son Song Feiqing-inspired by the reformist currents of the May Fourth Movement-developed a utopian capitalist vision that industry would redeem China from foreign imperialism and cultural backwardness. He founded the Dongya Corporation in 1932 to manufacture wool knitting yarn and for two decades steered the company through a constantly changing political landscape-the Nationalists, then Japanese occupiers, then the Nationalists again, and finally Chinese Communists. Increasingly hostile governments, combined with inflation, foreign competition, and a restless labor force, thwarted his ambition to create an "Industrial Eden."
Brett Sheehan shows how the Song family engaged in eclectic business practices that bore the imprint of both foreign and traditional Chinese influences. Businesspeople came to expect much from increasingly intrusive states, but the position of private capitalists remained tenuous no matter which government was in control. Although private business in China was closely linked to the state, it was neither a handmaiden to authoritarianism nor a natural ally of democracy.
About the Author
Brett Sheehan is professor of Chinese history at the University of Southern California. He received his Ph.D. from the University of California-Berkeley in 1997. He is also the author of Trust in Troubled Times: Money, Banking and State-Society Relations in Republican Tianjin, 1916-1937 (Harvard University Press, 2003) and numerous articles and book chapters.

美国大学教授招聘/选拔、评估和晋升 -- 中国可以从中借鉴之处
1． 每一个大学都有不同的定位，所以需要招聘不同类型的教授; 一些大学可能专注于研究，而另一些可能更注重教学;有些需要招聘最杰出的教授， 而另一些只需要招聘符合基本要求的教授（而不是最优秀的教授）;
2． 在大多数情况下，招聘教授是以系和学科为中心的。每个系/学科都要评估其对教授的需求，并提出详细的要求，而学院/大学则需要评估系/学科是否有必要招聘以及是否有充足的预算;
3． 该学科/系会成立一个招聘委员会来负责教授的公开招聘工作;校园内的教授和学生都会参与招聘过程;
4． 候选人与校园的契合度，特别是文化契合度，将是决定应聘者是否应被邀请参加校园面试的最重要因素之一;
5． 教师的工资通常遵循学院和大学的政策; 换句话说，大多数的教授将根据自己的职位级别和工作年限得到相应的工资。但是，一些新教授的工资可能会比老教授高，他们可能会得到额外的福利，比如以折扣购买大学的房子;
6． 杰出的和最受器重的教授将会得到使用特殊捐赠基金支付的报酬，这些教授将被称为杰出教授。捐赠基金可以用于支付额外的工资或额外的研究经费;
7． 教授的评估一般是中期或长期的，例如3-5年的表现，而不是基于详细的年度评估，尽管每个教授每年都需要在教学、研究和服务方面进行评估;
8． 对教授的评估包括学生对教学的评估和同业教授（内部和外部）对研究的评估;
9． 在大多数学院和大学里，没有特定的可接受的学术期刊名单。大多数大学要求期刊有同业审查或盲审。许多加州州立大学都接受在Cabell Directory上发表的文章，以用于获得学校奖励。Cabell的要求一般不像SCI或SSCI那么严格;
10． 终身教授的职位晋升在教授职业生涯中是最重要的；
11． 年轻的教授，特别是准终身助理教授是整个学院和大学中最活跃，最有成效的教授。许多年轻的教授都是博士生导师;
12． 学院和大学积极寻求聘请最优秀的教授，尤其是试图从其他学院招聘优秀教授;但一般来说，学院和大学会更多地聘用新博士(博士后)毕业生，并将他们作为长期培养的对象。
