Mr. Stoukogeorgios, who was a shepherd when the Nazis came to his village of Agrelia, Thessaly, served as a guerrilla fighter during the war. He discusses the invasion, consequences and resistance along with Nazi persecution of Greek Jews and the rescue of Jewish families from Trikalia. Greek language. Interviewers: Callie Pacelli, Elaine Exarhos, and Zelda Kaplan. Camera: Herschel Huber and Richard Adelman. Video is undated but interview questionnaire (attached) indicates the Mr. Stoukogeorgios was visiting with daughter Elaine Exarhos in Peabody at the time and would return to Greece in Dec. 1987. 1987-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.13013/3982 Art, Memory, and Reconciliation: The Mission of Kuma International in Bosnia and Herzegovina Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies Flyer for a research conversation with Claudia Zini, PhD, an art historian and founder of Kuma International, a nonprofit dedicated to researching and promoting understanding of visual arts from post-conflict societies.

Drawing on social signaling theory, status characteristics theory, and implicit bias theory, this study examined whether SES signals embedded in fabricated resumes influenced perceived hireability across the business, computer science, and nursing fields. A community sample (n = 96) completed a 2 (SES: High, Low) x 3 (Field) within-subjects survey evaluating three matched resume pairs (six resumes total) on hireability and perceived SES. More participants correctly identified the SES of each resume than not, although two resumes had “Can’t Tell” as the highest frequency response. Paired-sample t-tests revealed a significant hiring advantage for high-SES business resumes (t(95) = 2.01, p < 0.05, d = 0.21) with no significant differences in computer science or nursing. A large main effect of field was observed (F(2,190) = 38.92, p < .001), while the SES x Field interaction was not significant. McNemar tests revealed directional differences in SES perception accuracy, with low-SES signals more recognizable in business (p < .05) and high-SES more recognizable in nursing (p < .05). A mixed-effects regression found no significant association between conscious SES perceptions and hireability, suggesting that the bias operates implicitly. These findings extend theory to SES-based hiring evaluations and established field contexts as a moderator of class signal legibility. These findings underscore the need for further research on SES-based discrimination and structural hiring interventions to protect against discrimination based on socioeconomic background. 2026-05-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.13013/3980 Course Advertisement, "World War II and the Holocaust in Italy and Southern France" Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies Course advertisement for "World War II and the Holocaust in Italy and Southern France" (including travel to Rome, Florence, and Genoa in Italy; and Nice and Marseille in France) summer 2023 faculty-led study and travel course offered by the Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies and the history department. 2023-01-01T00:00:00Z
