George Saunders What I regret most ... are failures of kindness

George Saunders What I regret fruchtwein ... are failures of kindnessGeorge Saunders What I regret most ... are failures of kindnessIts graduation season, and we here at Ladders have decided to take a look back and showcase some past commencement addresses that stand the test of time. Below is the full transcript of George Saunderscommencement address to Syracuses Class of 2013 Down through the ages, a traditional form has evolved for this type of speech, which is Some old fart, his best years behind him, who, over the course of his life, has made a series of dreadful mistakes (that would be me), gives heartfelt advice to a group of shining, energetic young people, with all of their best years ahead of them (that would be you).And I intend to respect that tradition.Now, one useful thing you can do with an old person, in addition to borrowing money from them, or asking them to do one of their old-time dances, so you can watch, while laughing, is ask Looking back, what do you regret? And theyll tell you. Sometimes, as you know, theyll tell you even if you havent asked. Sometimes, even when youve specifically requested they not tell you, theyll tell you.So What do I regret? Being poor from time to time? Not really. Working terrible jobs, like knuckle-puller in a slaughterhouse? (And dont even ASK what that entails.) No. I dont regret that. Skinny-dipping in a river in Sumatra, a little buzzed, and looking up and binnenseeing like 300 monkeys sitting on a pipeline, pooping down into the river, the river in which I was swimming, with my mouth open, naked? And getting deathly ill afterwards, and staying sick for the next seven months? Not so much. Do I regret the occasional humiliation? Like once, playing hockey in front of a big crowd, including this girl I really liked, I somehow managed, while falling and emitting this weird whooping noise, to score on my own goalie, while also sending my stick flying into the crowd, nearly hitting that girl? No. I dont even regr et that.But heres something I do regretItscommencement seasonFollow Ladders Commencement Addresses magazine on Flipboard to watch and read all of the most inspiring speeches from this year and years past.In seventh grade, this new kid joined our class. In the interest of confidentiality, her Convocation Speech name will be ELLEN. ELLEN was small, shy. She wore these blue cats-eye glasses that, at the time, only old ladies wore. When nervous, which was pretty much always, she had a habit of taking a strand of hair into her mouth and chewing on it.So she came to our school and our neighborhood, and was mostly ignored, occasionally teased (Your hair taste good? - that sort of thing). I could see this hurt her. I totenstill remember the way shed look after such an insult eyes cast down, a little gut-kicked, as if, having just been reminded of her place in things, she was trying, as much as possible, to disappear. After awhile shed drift away, hair-strand still in her mouth. At home, I imagined, after school, her mother would say, you know How was your day, sweetie? and shed say, Oh, fine. And her mother would say, Making any friends? and shed go, Sure, lots.Sometimes Id see her hanging around alone in her front yard, as if afraid to leave it.And then - they moved. That was it. No tragedy, no big final hazing.One day she was there, next day she wasnt.End of story.Now, why do I regret that? Why, forty-two years later, am I still thinking about it? Relative to most of the other kids, I was actually pretty nice to her. I never said an unkind word to her. In fact, I sometimes even (mildly) defended her.But still. It bothers me.So heres something I know to be true, although its a little corny, and I dont quite know what to do with itWhat I regret most in my life are failures of kindness. Those moments when another human being was there, in front of me, suffering, and I responded . . . sensibly. Reservedly. Mildly.Or, to look at it from the other end of the telescope W ho, in your life, do you remember most fondly, with the most undeniable feelings of warmth?Those who were kindest to you, I bet.Its a little facile, maybe, and certainly hard to implement, but Id say, as a goal in life, you could do worse than Try to be nachkommen.Now, the million-dollar question Whats our problem? Why arent we kinder?Heres what I thinkEach of us is born with a series of built-in confusions that are probably somehow Darwinian. These are (1) were central to the universe (that is, our personal story is the main and most interesting story, the only story, really) (2) were separate from the universe (theres US and then, out there, all that other junk dogs and swing-sets, and the State of Nebraska and low-hanging clouds and, you know, other people), and (3) were permanent (death is real, o.k., sure for you, but not for me).Now, we dont really believe these things intellectually we know better but we believe them viscerally, and live by them, and they cause us to prio ritize our own needs over the needs of others, even though what we really want, in our hearts, is to be less selfish, mora aware of whats actually happening in the present moment, mora open, and more loving.So, the second million-dollar question How might we DO this? How might we become more loving, more open, less selfish, more present, less delusional, etc., etc?Well, yes, good question.Unfortunately, I only have three minutes left.So let me just say this. There are ways. You already know that because, in your life, there have been High Kindness periods and Low Kindness periods, and you know what inclined you toward the former and away from the latter. Education is good immersing ourselves in a work of art good prayer is good meditations good a frank talk with a dear friend establishing ourselves in some kind of spiritual tradition - recognizing that there have been countless really smart people before us who have asked these same questions and left behind answers for us.Because kindness, it turns out, is hard - it starts out all rainbows and puppy dogs, and expands to include . . . well, everything.One thing in our favor some of this becoming kinder happens naturally, with age. It might be a simple matter of attrition as we get older, we come to see how useless it is to be selfish - how illogical, really. We come to love other people and are thereby counter-instructed in our own centrality. We get our butts kicked by real life, and people come to our defense, and help us, and we learn that were not separate, and dont want to be. We see people near and dear to us dropping away, and are gradually convinced that maybe we too will drop away (someday, a long time from now). Most people, as they age, become less selfish and more loving. I think this is true. The great Syracuse poet, Hayden Carruth, said, in a poem written near the end of his life, that he was mostly Love, now.And so, a prediction, and my heartfelt wish for you as you get older, your self will diminish and you will grow in love. YOU will gradually be replaced by LOVE. If you have kids, that will be a huge moment in your process of self-diminishment. You really wont care what happens to YOU, as long as they benefit. Thats one reason your parents are so proud and happy today. One of their fondest dreams has come true you have accomplished something difficult and tangible that has enlarged you as a person and will make your life better, from here on in, forever.Congratulations, by the way.When young, were anxious - understandably - to find out if weve got what it takes. Can we succeed? Can we build a viable life for ourselves? But you - in particular you, of this generation - may have noticed a certain cyclical quality to ambition. You do well in high-school, in hopes of getting into a good college, so you can do well in the good college, in the hopes of getting a good job, so you can do well in the good job so you can . . .And this is actually O.K. If were going to beco me kinder, that process has to include taking ourselves seriously - as doers, as accomplishers, as dreamers. We have to do that, to be our best selves.Still, accomplishment is unreliable. Succeeding, whatever that might mean to you, is hard, and the need to do so constantly renews itself (success is like a mountain that keeps growing ahead of you as you hike it), and theres the very real danger that succeeding will take up your whole life, while the big questions go untended.So, quick, end-of-speech advice Since, according to me, your life is going to be a gradual process of becoming kinder and more loving Hurry up. Speed it along. Start right now. Theres a confusion in each of us, a sickness, really selfishness. But theres also a cure. So be a good and proactive and even somewhat desperate patient on your own behalf - seek out the most efficacious anti-selfishness medicines, energetically, for the rest of your life.Do all the other things, the ambitious things - travel, get rich , get famous, innovate, lead, fall in love, make and lose fortunes, swim naked in wild jungle rivers (after first having it tested for monkey poop) but as you do, to the extent that you can, err in the direction of kindness. Do those things that incline you toward the big questions, and avoid the things that would reduce you and make you trivial. That luminous part of you that exists beyond personality - your soul, if you will - is as bright and shining as any that has ever been. Bright as Shakespeares, bright as Gandhis, bright as Mother Teresas. Clear away everything that keeps you separate from this secret luminous place. Believe it exists, come to know it better, nurture it, share its fruits tirelessly.And someday, in 80 years, when youre 100, and Im 134, and were both so kind and loving were nearly unbearable, drop me a line, let me know how your life has been. I hope you will say It has been so wonderful.Congratulations, Class of 2013.I wish you great happiness, all the luc k in the world, and a beautiful summer.

Describe the work environment in which you will most effectively be able to contribute. What You Want to KnowThe candidates response tells the interviewer whether the work environment they provide is congruent with the candidates needs. The answer helps the interviewer decide whether the prospective employee is a good fit for their culture and work environment. For example, you dont want to hire a loner for a team that thrives on collaboration. You don t want to hire an employee who cant type a coherent paragraph if the majority of your customer rckendeckung is via email. My favored work environment would emphasize employee involvement and autonomy in making decisions about issues that affect my work. I dislike close supervision and believe that I am competent to make decisions about my job if I have all of the information and support I need to make responsible decisions. I also like to use a team approach to completing tasks and solving problems because thoughtful people working together can move mountains. Expand2. What kind of oversight and interaction would your ideal anfhrer provide? What You Want to KnowYou want to know how self-directed your candidate is. In a company that emphasizes empowerment, for example, a candidate who requires constant direction will not fit. If you know that the anfhrer who is the hiring manager is a micromanager, the self-driven candidate may not succeed. In fact, most of your best candidates will not succeed with a micromanaging boss. (What are you doing about this bosss management style, by the way? You are doing something- right?) My ideal boss would expect me to operate within the framework of our departments mission but would give me the information and support that I need to make autonomous, responsible decisions. My ideal boss would communicate frequently, provide recognition for legitimate accomplishments, and create an environment that emphasizes honesty, integrity, and respect for all employees. My ideal boss would care about me and pave the way for me to succeed. Expand Best Questions About Contribution and Problem Solving 3. Tell me about your greatest achievement at work. What You Want to KnowThe applicants answer tells you a lot about what the individual values and what he or she considers important. The answer also demonstrates what the applicant considers to be an achievement. This will tell you about the most important contributions they consider that they make at work. Occasionally, consider asking an additional question about what the prospective employee thinks of when he is asked to name the three key and most significant values that they would bring to your workplace. My greatest achievement, one that I will remember for a long time, was when I led my product development team to release a major product release on the date we had promised our customers and resellers. This was probably the first time in company history that we released a product on time. I had a fantastic team that was highly motivated to add this achievement to our record. Everyone pulled their own weight, contributed their work on time, and they were committed to adding value for our customers. Expand4. Tell me about a time when you had to overcome a major obstacle that stood in the way of you accomplishing a goal or commitment. How did you approach the situation? What You Want to KnowYou will obtain a clear picture of the candidates past performance as he attem pted to overcome difficulties that stood in the way of his achievement. You obtain information about his or her problem-solving style and you also learn about what the candidate considers an obstacle. You may also learn about his or her interaction style with coworkers and how he approaches solving potential conflicts and problems. Once I had a coworker who needed to provide several reports for me every week by Tuesday. They were late almost every week which caused me to be unable to complete my overview of the departments performance which was due to my manager on Thursday weekly. In turn, his report was due to the senior team on Friday.Rather than complaining and blaming, I decided to proactively discuss the situation with my colleague. What I found out is that she didnt realize that my whole departmental report was incomplete without her input. She also was not aware of my deadlines and the final report and due dates to the senior team. By addressing the issue with her directly, I discovered that her manager had never provided her with the context she needed to understand the importance of the deadline. The report was never late again. Expand5. What are the three most important attributes or skills that you believe you would bring to our company if we hired you? What You Want to Know The candidates answer tells you what he or she considers most important in their skill set. You also learn about how the candidate views your open position and their ability to make contributions in that job. When you asked about my key skills that I would bring to your workplace, the fact thatI am a team playercame immediately to mind. I am one of those people who appreciates the insights and input that my coworkers provide and can capitalize on their value. Along with this, Iam also an effective communicator. I overcommunicate when necessary to achieve challenges, solve problems,and accomplish goals. Third, I amconfident enough in my skills and work ethicto know that I am up to the task of accomplishing any challenge that a job throws my way.

It also offered me a promotion so that I can further develop my skills and face new challenges. I see it as a stretch role in which I can continue to grow my skills and experience. Especially as the job is in a related industry to the one in which I am currently employed, I saw a lot of opportunities to expand my knowledge and network. Expand7. Why are you leaving your current employer? (If the applicant is employed.) What You Want to Know The applicants response tells you about his or her values, outlook, goals, and needs from an employer. You can determine what prompted the job search. Is the candidate running towards a more successful future or is she running away from a past unsuccessful employment experience? Candidates who tell you about leaving bad bosses may not reveal their own part in the story. I am looking for an opportunity to continue to develop my skills and experience so that I can work for an employer in increasingly stretch roles. At my current employer, it is difficult to grow my skills. As a smaller employer, fewer opportunities exist to move into a team leader or managerial role. This is my ultimate goal. I have transferred and also made several lateral moves, but its time to move on to my next challenge where I can contribute mo st significantly. Expand8. What are the first three things you would do on the job if you were hired for this position? What You Want to Know You will gain an understanding of what the applicant deems important, their understanding of the requirements of your job, and how the candidate approaches a new situation. You will learn whether the candidate takes the time to understand the work environment and necessary interactions before diving right into the water. Id abflug by trying to understand the environment and learning how Id best interact with the existing people and systems to quickly integrate and contribute to my new job. Id do this by interviewing any reporting staff members, my coworkers, my manager, and the senior team. Id also speak with any of the departments who are the customers of my services. Finally, Id work through the existing systems as they are currently followed to understand the way they work before turning my thoughts to continuous improvement. Expand Gener al Effectiveness and Workplace Interaction 9. How would your coworkers at your current job describe your interaction with them and your general effectiveness in your work performance? How would your coworkers describe you? What You Want to Know You want to understand how the candidate thinks that his or her coworkers view their interaction. You also want to assess how coworkers like working with the candidate. These questions give you an idea about the candidates assessment of his effectiveness in his current job and in his relationships with coworkers. Past practice can predict future results. My coworkers in the past appreciated that I am a team player and a person of integrity. I believe that theyd tell you that they respect me and the contributions I made. I made efforts to share the glory when the team was successful and I never threw anyone under the bus. Theyd also say that I was reliable and accountable. Expand10. How would your current boss describe your work and contribut ion? What You Want to Know You want to understand how the candidate perceives the support and opinion of his current employer. This question tells you about the candidates interaction with his current boss. It also informs you about how well he accepts criticism and feedback. If the interaction with the applicants current employer is positive and uplifting, this can shape the job applicants expectations of their new work environment. My current boss likes me and I like her so we start the relationship from a positive place. She appreciates my team orientation and my ability to communicate effectively with my team members and our internal customers. She appreciates that I dont let her down because I am accountable, reliable, and I keep my commitments. When she has feedback and can provide specific examples, I am generally willing to try to use her advice. I think this makes her happy she took the time to provide it. We enjoy a positive interpersonal as well as a positive managerial r elationship. Expand11. How do you believe that your current skills will contribute to the accomplishment of our companys goals and mission as stated on our website or in company literature?

Further, it tells you if the candidate was thoughtful about his or her potential fit in your company and whether she will be able to contribute.

It was co ngruent with the kind of workplace I want to find where I can function as an autonomous, empowered employee. In this role, I can seriously contribute to achieving the goal and the big picture in a mission that is much larger than anything I could do on my own.

Listen carefully to whether the prospective employee pursues his or her own professional development or whether they depend on their employer to provide the development opportunities.

Learn About the Early History of Forensic Science Hsi Duan Yu

Learn About the Early History of Forensic Science Hsi Duan YuLearn About the Early History of Forensic Science Hsi Duan YuToday, the word forensics has become synonymous with crime and crime scene investigation. Immediately conjuring images of crime labs, ultraviolet lights, and high-tech computers, popular crimes shows like CSI have brought increased attention to the field of forensic science. Theyve also generated newfound interest in forensics careers. The term forensic comes from the Latin and means, simply, having to do with the law. Hence, any discipline that has any ties to the legal ordnungsprinzip is, in fact, forensic. This is why so many job titles within criminology, such as forensic psychologist, are preceded by the term. With regard to forensic science, the term is now commonly understood to refer to the application of scientific principles to questions of law. In short, it means using science to solve crime. A New Discipline As ingrained into ur criminal justice sy stem as forensic science would seem, the truth is that it is a relatively recent addition, even considering the young history of modern criminology. When In Rome The earliest roots of forensic science as we know it can be found in ancient Greek and Roman society. These western civilizations brought great advances in the medical field as well as pharmacology. Extensive knowledge was developed regarding the production, use, and symptoms of various poisons, making it possible to identify their use in previously undetected murders. Et Tu Brute? The First Autopsy In the year 44 B.C., the Roman physician Antistius examined the body of the recently slain Julius Caesar and determined that, though the dictator was stabbed 23 times, only one wound through his chest caused his actual death. This is widely regarded as the first recorded autopsy. The First Innocence Project Case? Since the Roman model is the basis for our court and legal system today, it is fitting that it also provi des the precedence for our interest in applying scientific principles in the examination of evidence. In the first century A.D., the Roman orator and jurist Quintilian was able to show that bloody handprints left at the scene of a murder were meant to frame the defendant, an innocent blind man, for his own mothers murder. As the Roman Empire declined in the west, forensic science remained fairly stagnant for the next millennium, did the applications of criminology and criminal justice. The Beginning of Pathology In thirteenth century China, the book Hsi Duan Yu (The Washing Away of Wrongs) was published and is considered to be the first known guide to pathology. The work describes, among other things, how to determine whether a victim drowned or was strangled as a cause of death. It also detailed how the criminal investigator identified the type of blade used in a murder by examining the corpse and how to determine whether a death was accidental or murder. Scientific Advances Beginning in the seventeenth century, as the age of enlightenment bloomed, advancements in science and the social conscience saw the field of forensic science receive a revitalization of sorts. New appreciation for the application of the scientific method in nearly all inquiries, criminal or otherwise, necessitated new means for identifying and solving crimes. The eighteenth and nineteenth centuries saw an explosion of recorded incidents of the use of scientifically obtained evidence to solve crimes and win convictions. Evidentiary techniques including connecting a piece of crumbled newspaper used for wadding in a pistol to a matching, torn piece of paper in a suspects pocket as well as matching clothing fibers, grains, and footprints to those found on a suspect accused of murdering a young woman. Fingerprinting Perhaps the biggest leap in forensic science, though, came in 1880 with the work of Henry Faulds and William James Herschel, who published a study in the scientific jo urnal Nature that detailed the fact that human fingerprints were unique to individuals and that no two sets were identical. The study garnered tremendous professional support and was accepted as fact in the court system, paving the way for broad use of the identification technique that has become a mainstay in the criminal justice field now for more than a century. A Young But Rich History Though it is a relatively new discipline, forensic science has a rich history and an even richer future. As technological advancements come seemingly every day, a forensic science career is a perfect way to marry a curious mind to a public servants heart.
