justify an infraction/tow able offense. Parking is

revoke this privilege if the user refuses to comply with
the College's Campus Parking and Traffic Regulations.
Decal Display: parking decals or passes must be
displayed according to the parking regulations or the
special instructions provided at the time of issuance. A
parking decal is not considered valid unless it is
displayed correctly on the vehicle. Overnight parking

SUNY Adirondack’s College Lecture Series
Feb 8:
Tales from the Trenches: Toward an
Anthropology of Assessment
Phillip Naftaly, Distinguished Professor of
Anthropology and Sociology at SUNY Adirondack,
will present a talk entitled “Tales from the Trenches:
Toward an Anthropology of Assessment” on Weds.,
Feb. 8 at 3:30 p.m. in the Scoville Learning Center,
Room 210, on the SUNY Adirondack campus in
Queensbury. The talk will last about an hour, with
questions.
The presentation is part of SUNY Adirondack’s
College Lecture Series and is sponsored by SUNY
Adirondack’s Professional Development Committee.
The public is invited and admission is free.
“This presentation is not about numbers,
percentages, or any type of particular assessment
scores,” says Dr. Naftaly. “It does, however, note
that anthropologists have neglected the study of
assessment processes and suggests ways that an
anthropological perspective can be applied to the
study of assessment.” Examples will be presented
from Dr. Naftaly’s assessment experiences at four
colleges including SUNY Adirondack.
Phillip Naftaly is a Distinguished of Professor
Anthropology and Sociology at SUNY Adirondack
as well as an adjunct instructor at Plattsburgh State
University. Dr. Naftaly received his B.A. in
Behavioral Sciences with a Double Major in
Psychology from San Jose State University in
California and subsequently earned his M.A. and
Ph.D. in Anthropology from the Graduate Faculty of
the New School for Social Research in New York.
His areas of expertise include diversity and
educational anthropology. He has published several
articles about Jewish chicken farmers in Petaluma,
California. Dr. Naftaly is a Fellow of the American
Anthropological Association and has served as
President of the Society for Anthropology in
Community Colleges. His commitment to his
students has been recognized by receiving a State
University of New York Chancellor’s Award for
Excellence in Teaching as well as a SUNY
Adirondack President’s Award for Teaching.
The College Lecture Series offers talks by SUNY
Adirondack faculty on a variety of topics and
contemporary issues.
SUNY Adirondack encourages persons with

SUNY Adirondack Writers Project
Announces Spring 2012 Event Schedule
Poets, nonfiction writers and a documentary
filmmaker will highlight the SUNY Adirondack
Writers Project Spring 2012 schedule of events.
The schedule includes:
• Poet David Budbill will speak on Thurs., Feb. 23, at 6:30
p.m. in the Visual Arts Gallery, Dearlove Hall; • SUNY
Plattsburgh professor and poetry translator Alexis Levitin
will speak Wed., March 7, at 12:30 p.m. in
the Visual Arts Gallery;
• Documentary filmmaker David
deVries will speak on Wed.,
March 21, at 12:40 p.m. in the
Scoville Learning Center
auditorium;
• Nonfiction writer Elizabeth Samet will speak on
Mon., April 2, at 12:40 p.m. in the Scoville
Learning Center auditorium;
• Nonfiction writer John Francis will speak on Mon.,
April 30, at 12:40 p.m. in the Scoville Learning
Center auditorium.
Admission for all of these events is free and the public is
invited.
Budbill is the author of Happy Life, While We’ve Still
Got Feet, and Moment to Moment: Poems of a Mountain
Recluse (Copper Canyon Press). He appears in conjunction
with the Visual Arts Gallery’s opening reception for the Lois
Eby exhibit Improvised!
The New York Times has called Budbill “a no-nonsense
free-range sage who celebrates tomatoes in September, the
whistle of a woodcock and sweet black tea and ancient
Chinese poems. He watches the seasons, the years and his
own thoughts pass, embracing it all.”
Levitin has published 20 books of translations, including
eleven collections of poems by Portugal’s foremost living
poet, Eugenio de Andrade. His work has been included in 25
anthologies and 200 literary journals.
Daniel Jaffe has called Levitin “one of the most respected
– if not the most respected – English-language translator of
Portuguese and Brazilian literature, as well as literature from
Ecuador.”
deVries has produced, directed, and written television
documentaries in twenty-six countries for American and
international networks.
Samet is the author of A Soldier’s Heart:
Reading Literature Through Peace and War at
West Point (Picador Press), an account of her 10
years as a civilian teacher of literature at the
Military Academy.
Her book was called “thoughtful, attentive
(and) stereotype-breaking” by Robert Pinsky of the New
York Times, who also says Samet “…offers a significant
perspective on the crucial social and political force of honor:
a principle of behavior at the intersection of duty and
imagination.”
Her appearance is cosponsored by The Military Club of
SUNY Adirondack.
The opinions expressed by Samet are her own; they do
not necessarily represent those of the U.S. Military
Academy, the Department of the Army, or the Department of
Defense.
