Flarr Pages #55: Teaching Curzio Malaparte's The Skin: Life Is Not Always Beautiful, Victor Berberi
FLARR Pages
Anxiety over whether or not to teach literary works that may be deemed offensive is not limited to the perennial example of Conrad's Heart of Darkness. This problem is felt at least as keenly by foreign language teachers, who act as ambassadors of cultures even less familiar to our students than the former British Empire. In deciding whether to assign Curzio Malaparte's novel The Skin (La Pelle, 1949) in a recent course on Italian civilization through literature and film, I was hesitant for a number of reasons.

Australian Students Achievement In The Timss 2002 Mathematics Cognitive Domains, Sue Thomson
Australian Students Achievement In The Timss 2002 Mathematics Cognitive Domains, Sue Thomson
TIMSS Australia Monograph Series
The TIMSS assessment materials are organised on the basis of two domains: a content domain and a cognitive domain. The content domain describes the content that is intended to be assessed; while the cognitive domain describes the cognitive abilities students use to answer the items. The content domains are fairly consistently and readily found in the curricula of the participating countries, and are the subject of the major international and national reports for TIMSS. Developing reliable and valid achievement scales for the cognitive domains is not as straightforward, and differences among students across and within countries in their mathematical knowledge …

Reminiscences On The Evolution Of Honors Leadership, Len Zane
Reminiscences On The Evolution Of Honors Leadership, Len Zane
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
Las Vegas, Nevada. It was a hot and sultry Friday night in August. Pardon the redundancy—if it is Las Vegas in August, nights are hot and sultry. Though many diversions beckoned, I decided to check my email before heading to bed for the evening. Sitting in front of the computer with a bowl of ice cream and a glass of cognac, I downloaded Rew A. (“Skip”) Godow Jr.’s 1986 article from the Forum for Honors that was attached to an email from our journal’s enterprising editor, Ada Long. The essay was there as part of Ada’s call for journal submissions …
Chaucer, Mountain Hiking, And Honors Program Leadership, Sam Schuman
Chaucer, Mountain Hiking, And Honors Program Leadership, Sam Schuman
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
The narrator of Chaucer’s Troilus and Criseyde laments that he is no lover himself but only the “servant of love’s servants.” I’m in an analogous position in respect to honors program administration: for the past quarter-century, I’ve been in administrative positions as chief academic officer and as chancellor where I’ve worked with honors directors but not really had daily responsibility for a program myself. In a way this disqualifies me from writing on the topic of honors leadership with (to quote Chaucer again) the authority of experience, at least contemporary experience. On the other hand, it may be useful to …

Student Outcomes And Honors Programs: A Longitudinal Study Of 172 Honors Students 2000-2004, Frank Shushok Jr.
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
Since this edition of the JNCHC is dedicated to honors administration, it seems appropriate to offer a few introductory remarks about the usefulness of this study. College and university administrators participating in the accreditation process are well aware that assessing student learning is not the passing fad that some had suspected it might be. In the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, for example, administrators are familiar with Core Requirement 2.1—the institution engages in ongoing, integrated, and institution- wide planning and evaluation processes that incorporate systematic review of programs and services (Handbook for reaffirmation of accreditation, 2004). All accreditation bodies …
Major Forerunners To Honors Education At The Collegiate Level, Anne Rinn
Major Forerunners To Honors Education At The Collegiate Level, Anne Rinn
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
In this paper, the author explores the major forerunners of the modern-day honors program as well as the purposes behind the formation of honors programs in the United States. Although given much attention in the 1920s with the work of Frank Aydelotte and again in the 1950s and 1960s with the work of Joseph Cohen, university honors programs and colleges have grown so rapidly over the past few decades that we sometimes forget our origins. By examining the foundations of honors programs, this history allows researchers and administrators to better understand modern honors programs in light of the past.

So, you have been asked to administer the honors program at your institution. You have no idea what it means since, for the past fifteen years, you have been teaching three sections of English composition and literature courses each semester. No one tells you that overnight you will have to become a public relations guru, an expert in planning and organization, a specialist in stretching a meager budget, a top-notch communicator and consensus builder, an effective fundraiser, and an authority on honors education.
Leadership In Honors: What Is The Right Stuff?, George Mariz
Leadership In Honors: What Is The Right Stuff?, George Mariz
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
It may come as disappointing news, but as far as honors administrators go the “right stuff” in many ways resembles sound medical practice: there are seldom cases of heroic intervention; good protocols and practices are better formulas for success than sheer talent or the bold stroke; and so good preparation counts for more than genius. A comprehensive essay on an honors administrator’s role in academic leadership, curriculum design, administrative organization and reportage, and other honors desiderata would make a hefty book, and so these brief remarks will address specific but important aspects of administration, faculty recruitment, and student advising.

Honors Program Leadership: The Right Stuff, Rew Godow Jr.
Honors Program Leadership: The Right Stuff, Rew Godow Jr.
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
In what follows, I shall discuss six leadership roles that I think generally need to be fulfilled in an honors program. Since the leadership of most honors programs is the responsibility of a single person, the director, this can be thought of as a discussion of the various roles that my ideal honors director would play. Accordingly, the list also can be thought of as a general checklist of things that search committees should look for in candidates for a position as honors director.

“Ah Well! I Am Their Leader; I Really Ought To Follow Them”: Leading Student Leaders, Keith Garbutt
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
One of the privileges of being the dean of an honors college or the director of an honors program is that you are allowed to work with some of the brightest, most motivated, and most innovative students in your institution. One of our responsibilities when working with these individuals is to provide them with an environment in which they can develop their skills and potential as leaders. This important element of leadership in honors is one item missing from Rew Godow’s essay. When I was thinking on this topic, a line came to mind from Gilbert and Sullivan’s comic opera …

Riding A Unicycle Across A Bridge While Juggling: The Musings Of An Honors Administrator, Bonnie Irwin
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
My favorite metaphor for the life of an honors administrator remains that of a plate spinner. Those of us of a certain age remember them from the Ed Sullivan Show: frantically running from pole to pole, these acrobats had to keep the plates spinning so that none would fall crashing to the stage. Meanwhile, in the background, some classical, frenetic piece of music, often Khachaturian’s Sabre Dance, would be playing, faster and faster. Indeed, if a university can be likened to a circus—and many are tempted to do just that— honors administrators are the plate spinners.
Success As An Honors Program Director: What Does It Take?, Bruce Fox
Success As An Honors Program Director: What Does It Take?, Bruce Fox
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
What does it mean to succeed as an honors director? For the purposes of this discussion, I define the successful honors director as someone who builds an honors program, with “build” having a variety of meanings. In this context, “build” can mean starting a program from the get-go, reinvigorating a dormant program, increasing enrollment in an existing program (without decreasing the program’s value to students), increasing the program’s reputation, increasing its budget or other resources, increasing the value a program has to its university, or most importantly (at least to me) increasing the value of the program to its students. …
Being There For Honors Leadership, Lisa Coleman
Being There For Honors Leadership, Lisa Coleman
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
In his 1986 article, “Honors Program Leadership: The Right Stuff,” Rew Godow, Jr., makes a compelling argument for honors program director as Renaissance man or homo universalis, someone who is able to do many things well, undaunted by the fact that his job, like the job of astronauts evoked by Godow’s title, exacts commitment, ability, and sheer guts along with daunting paper work, management and budgeting expertise, the habit of building and maintaining a constituency, and the entrepreneurship required to sell a program.
Looking to my eight-year administrative relationship with the Honors Program of my university, Coordinator for two …

At Play On The Fields Of Honor(S), Larry Andrews
Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive
Who could argue with Skip Godow’s list of roles and qualities desirable in an ideal honors leader? With appropriate caveats concerning the wide variation in programs and institutional contexts, he envisions well the comprehensive demands of modern-day honors administration, demands that match my experience of over fourteen years as dean of an honors college of 1300 students as I strive imperfectly to embody the qualities he idealizes.
Of course, one might emphasize one of Skip’s points more or less. If an honors administrator is required to perform a number of non-honors university duties, the roles are even more complex. One …

What Matter For Child Development?, Fali Huang
Research Collection School Of Economics
This paper estimates production functions of child cognitive and social development using a panel data of nine-year old children each with over two hundred home and school inputs as well as family background variables. A tree regression method is used to conduct estimation under various speci…cations. A small subset of inputs is found consistently important in explaining variances of child development results, including the number of books a child has at various ages and how often a mother reads to child by age …ve, while the e¤ects of race and maternal employment are negligible when detailed inputs are controlled.

Are Educational Leadership Candidates Prepared To Address Diversity Issues In Schools?, Tak C. Chan
Faculty and Research Publications
: Standard 4 of the Educational Leadership Constituency Council (ELCC) Standards addresses school diversity issues and specifies requirements that all educational leadership programs need to meet. In response, all educational leadership programs in Georgia referenced ELCC Standards and have worked to foster diversity as a priority in their programs. The faculty has been given guidelines to respond to diversity issues by implementing a variety of constructive strategies. For all that the faculty has done to foster diversity in the educational leadership programs, do program candidates get the message? Most of the literature on leadership diversity is focused on the significance …
