2. Edges and Ecotones: Donna Haraway's Worlds at UCSC

Author

Haraway, Donna and Reti, Irene

Subjects
History of Consciousness, feminism, universities and colleges, University of California, Santa Cruz
Abstract

Donna Haraway came to UC Santa Cruz in 1980 as a professor in the History of Consciousness Program (Histcon), one of the first interdisciplinary graduate programs in the United States. Her position in feminist theory within Histcon's graduate program was probably the first one of its kind in the country. While Haraway's philosophy and theories infuse this narrative, the focus and scope of this oral history is her life at UC Santa Cruz. Haraway's interest in aurality and in the interview format has inspired us to provide the recordings of her interview(s) MP3 format on the Library's website, in addition to this transcript. While Haraway lightly edited the manuscript in places, for the most part the transcript can be used as a finding aid to the oral interview.

Abstract

In this paper, I estimate the short-run economic effects of the opening of The University of California, Merced in 2005 by comparing Merced with a counterfactual constructed by the synthetic control method. During the period 2005-2014, the opening of the campus has increased local employment by 13%, mainly in nontraded industries, such as the service sector. These findings suggest that a large research university could bring immediate benefits to the local economy because of its large demand from students and employees. (JEL J24, O18, R11), I. INTRODUCTION High-quality research universities have been essential for creating technology clusters such as those in Austin or San Jose, because research universities directly create knowledge and supply college-educated workers, [...]

Abstract

To link to full-text access for this article, visit this link: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ydbio.2006.06.054 Byline: Kevin L. Obholz (a)(b)(c)(e), Arsen Akopyan (a)(b)(c), Katrina G. Waymire (b)(c)(d), Grant R. MacGregor (a)(b)(c) Keywords: Sterility; Fndc3a; Acrosome; Leydig; Sertoli; Spermatid; Adhesion Abstract: Symplastic spermatids (sys) male mice are sterile due to a recessive mutation that causes defective adhesion between spermatids and Sertoli cells within the seminiferous epithelium. We show that the mutation in sys mice involves a deletion of 1.24 Mb of chromosome 14. Comparative genomic analysis suggests that this region contains only one gene, Fndc3a. A genetic complementation analysis using mice with a specific mutation within Fndc3a verifies that mutation of Fndc3a is the cause of male sterility in sys mice. Fndc3a is a member of a three-gene family in mice. Fndc3a, which is expressed in several tissues including testis, encodes a novel protein composed of a proline-rich amino-terminus, nine fibronectin type-III domains, and a hydrophobic carboxy-terminus. The proline-rich region of each family member contains conserved amino acids that include a PPGY consensus binding site for type I WW domain containing proteins. The hydrophobic carboxy-terminus is similar to that found in 'tail-anchored' proteins, integral membrane proteins that are localized to the cytosolic face of the endoplasmic reticulum. Immunohistochemical staining indicated that FNDC3A localizes to the acrosome of spermatids, as well as to Leydig cells in the mouse testis. Acrosomal localization of FNDC3A is observed in spermatids between step 2 and step 10 inclusive. In step 12 spermatids, FNDC3A is largely absent from the acrosomal region with immunostaining being localized to vesicular structures located within the cytoplasm of elongate spermatids. Models are presented for the function of FNDC3A in mediating spermatid-Sertoli adhesion during mouse spermatogenesis.
