On this episode of Life and Language, Alessia Pisicchio explores the Sicilian dialect and why it seems to be dying out in Sicily but expanding in other places in unique ways. She tells her story about what it was like traveling to Sicily and not being able to fully communicate with cousins her age because of the language barrier between proper Italian and the Sicilian Dialect. She continuously became curious as to why this has happened throughout the remainder of the trip. Alongside others perspectives including her mom, Rosalia Pisicchio and cousins Daniela DiSclafani and Giovanni Battista Cangialosi, their stories help express what is happening to the Sicilian Dialect, giving it much needed attention. Throughout modern society in Sicily, it is discovered how the language seems to create a barrier preventing newer generations from using the Sicilian dialect as their primary language. This podcast explores why this occurs and will continue to over future generations. The Sicilian language is dying but, can it be prevented and saved? Music in this episode comes from creators Mario Carbone, Richard Sclafani and Richard Petsi.

Mon, 14 Sep 2020 - 21min - 35 - QC Data Analytics in the 1990s
Professor Mindy Rhindress is a valued faculty member and Mentor-in-Residence at Queens College's Program in Data Analytics and Applied Social Research. She is also one of her program's highly-successful alumni, with a very successful corporate career that culminated in a senior executive at the major marketing research firm Abt Associates. It often surprises Data Analytics students that our program is decades-old, with a long history of training students to apply quantitative social science to public and private sector enterprise problems. Check out this gem we found! https://youtu.be/RN3kpCPShjE By the way, that's MacArthur award-winning computer scientist Stefan Savage, who worked as a lab assistant back in the day! In our inaugural episode of The QC Pod, we ask Professor Rhindress what it was like to study analytics back in the 1990s. She talks about how QC students were trained to evangelize the idea that enterprises should give all their knowledge workers a computer of their own, and should teach people to use them! We talk about the resistance to computers back in the 1990s, how a male-dominated executive culture thought it too emasculating to type up your own work, and how people like Prof. Rhindress were able to capitalize on their understandings of what techs did to better work with them as a business executive. Queens College's Master's Program in Data Analytics and Applied Social Research continues that tradition today by training students in today's cutting-edge data analytics and applied social science. It is an outstanding program with a great placement record (at a fraction of the cost of our private school competitors). Applications are free for Queens College students.
