Motivation To Lead : Investigating The Power Of The Mtl Equation, Elizabeth Robinson

Honors Theses

Recent research has investigated a measurable way to determine an individual's motivation to lead in social situations by looking at specific aspects of an individual that make up his/her leadership ability and experience. The MTL (Motivation to Lead) construct is referred to as an individual differences construct that measures a person's motivation to acquire a leadership position based on specific personality traits and values (Chan & Drasgow, 2002).

Characterization Of A Non-Ribosomal Peptide From Agrobacterium Tumefaciens, Graham Strub May 2001

Characterization Of A Non-Ribosomal Peptide From Agrobacterium Tumefaciens, Graham Strub

Honors Theses

The current efforts underway to sequence the genome of Agrobacterium tumefaciens have led to the discovery of a large region of DNA (52kb) with a strong homology to several polyketide synthetase genes. This was a matter of great interest to the Agrobacterium project; no current literature documents the production of a polyketide or non:iibosomal peptide from Agrobacterium. Furthermore, the multi-domain enzymes coded by these polyketide synthetase genes in other bacterial species are responsible for synthesizing several toxins, many which act as antibiotic agents {8, 9, 12, 16). This was also of great interest, since Agrobacterium is not known to produce …

The Botetourt Dragoons In War And Peace, Michael G. Henkle

Honors Theses

This thesis studies a Confederate cavalry company from the immediate prewar years through the war, ending with the death of one of its last members. Most soldiers were residents of Botetourt County, Virginia. The study focuses upon both the men themselves and the battles in which they fought. Letters, diaries, and postwar accounts reveal their thoughts. After the war, many took an active role in both veterans' affairs and their community by joining veteran camps and participating in politics. Near the end, many received pensions or stayed in old soldiers' homes.
