This annual volume of the Community College Humanities Review (CCHR) presents a wide range of articles dealing with humanities--from Lloyd Kaplan's attempts to set the record straight (by presenting a more accurate appraisal and a truer perspective of Dave Brubeck's outstanding contribution to the course of jazz) to Walter Krieglstein's exploration of recent discoveries in basic science (by attempting to evaluate their potential as a stimulus for cross-fertilization between the sciences and the humanities). Contained are the following articles: (1) "Comments at the National Conference of the Community College Humanities Association: Washington, D.C., November 9, 1995" (Sheldon Hackney); (2) "Conform, Go Crazy or Take a Nap: Nourishing the Prophetic Vision" (Mary Rose Reilley); (3) "The Legacy of Dave Brubeck" (Lloyd Kaplan); (4) "Interdisciplinary Study: Towards the Millennium" (Maryanne M. Garbowsky); (5) "The Silencing Canon: Native American Texts and Literature Study" (Mary Roseberry); (6) "Life in the Iron Mills: Differing Responses to Moral Responsibility within the Community" (Mary Ellen Byrne); (7) "Can Chaos Theory Close the Gap between the Sciences and the Humanities?" (Walter Krieglstein); and (8) "'There Are No Serbs': The Language of Genocide" (Mark Grimes). (VWC)
