This course will examine the experience of Armenians in North
America from the 1870s to the 1990s. Six different waves of
Armenian immigration to North America will be discussed
within the context of US immigration policy and practice.
Special emphasis will be placed on Armenians in California.
The following topics will be analyzed: nature and causes ofthe
immigration; settlement patterns; work experiences; institutional and organizational developments; family and community
life; adjustment and assimilation in North America. This is a
graded course and students will be encouraged to pursue projects
of personal interest.
•Armenian Studies 45-William Saroyan
Armenian Studies 45 focuses on the work ofFresno born writer
William Saroyan through his short stories, novels and memoirs.
Through a highly interactive and informal classroom atmosphere, students will discover just how Saroyan's stories redefined the landscape of modern American fiction with unusual
themes that are still important today. Student participation will
be very important in this class. This class is completely open to
all students, members of the community who are curious and
interested.

discussion, sometimes digressive, of film technique, dramatic
structure, narrative, various visuals. Then the students will
begin by viewing some Hollywood films depicting the cultural
conflicts and interactions of transported ethnic groups into

more modern portrayals of ethnic groups either accepting or
struggling against American culture.

Armenian Literature

California State University, Fresno. Mrs. Kazan was born November 28, 1910, in
New York City and moved to Portland, Oregon, with her family in 1911. She
returned to New York City in 1928 and attended Hunter college in New York and
was an honor student. She met Henry S. Kazan in September 1930, at an AGBU
&Junior League meeting. They were married December 24, 1935. From 1929 to
1945, Mrs. Kazan was employed at the United Hospital fund where she was an
accountant and later the assistant controller.
At the time of her death, Mrs. Kazan resided in Juno Beach Florida with a
summer home in East Quoque, New York. She is survived by her husband, Henry .

professorship is designed to provide support for teaching in Modern Armenian
History, including the New Republic of Armenia and the Armenian Diaspora,
immigration history and genocide history. The professorship was established with a
gift from the Kazans of more than $300,000.
In July 1997 the Kazans made a gift of their East Quoque, New York, home
to Fresno State. Proceeds from the sale of the home will be used to establish the M.
Victoria Karagozian Kazan Fund in Armenian Studies. The fund will, in part,
provide scholarships for students who take select Armenian studies and history
courses taught by Henry Kazan Professors. The fund will also provide general
operating support for the Armenian Studies Program and funding for the M. Victoria
