Remaining Globally Competitive: Leadership And The Common Core State Standards (Ccss), Paige Hendricks
Remaining Globally Competitive: Leadership And The Common Core State Standards (Ccss), Paige Hendricks
The William & Mary Educational Review
State and local school systems maintained autonomy of schools, curriculum, classrooms, and instructional practices until roughly the year 2000. The passage of the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) legislation in 2001 shifted the educational role of the Federal Government, beginning an increased focus on accountability measures to ensure that the children of the United States remain globally competitive. However, the implementation of NLCB and, more recently, the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) has proven difficult for state and local school leaders. Important leadership skills such as increased communication (to ensure collaboration and capacity-building) and shared decision-making will assist leaders with …

How Parenting Style Influences Children: A Review Of Controlling, Guiding, And Permitting Parenting Styles On Children’S Behavior, Risk- Taking, Mental Health, And Academic Achievement, Clare Merlin, Justine Rebecca Okerson, Phillip Hess
The William & Mary Educational Review
Across cultures, parenting styles fall into three categories based on levels of demandingness and responsiveness. This literature review examines three categories of parenting styles and their influence on children’s behavior, risk-taking, mental health, and academic achievement. Controlling parents are high on demandingness and low on responsiveness (Baumrind, 1991; Kim, in press). Guiding parents are high on demandingness and high on responsiveness (Baumrind, 1991; Kim, in press). Permitting parents are low on demandingness and low on responsiveness (Baumrind, 1991; Kim, in press). Based on positive and negative effects of each parenting style, this review concludes that the guiding parenting style is …

Trading Boots For Books: A Psychoeducational Group For Military Veterans Enrolled In Higher Education, Jessamyn Randall, Lilith Spry, Herman L. Lukowh Ii
The William & Mary Educational Review
More than ten years of armed conflict and educational benefits offered as an incentive to enlistment have produced a small but growing population of veterans attending colleges and universities. These students may feel isolated from peers and underutilize existing transition services. The authors present format and content for a psychoeducational group experience that integrates social support and academic skill building.

An Alternate Way To “Feel Good”: Interventions To Promote Self-Compassionate Students And Classrooms, Jessica Lloyd-Hazlett, Megan Maestri
An Alternate Way To “Feel Good”: Interventions To Promote Self-Compassionate Students And Classrooms, Jessica Lloyd-Hazlett, Megan Maestri
The William & Mary Educational Review
While well intentioned, conflation of self-esteem and wellbeing within the classroom has contributed to inflated grades, overreliance on accolades, and frustrated efforts to promote “feeling good” over building competence. The current paper suggests self-compassion is a viable alternative to the construct of self-esteem that shares significant overlap, but also transcends inherent shortcomings a focus on self-esteem creates. Classroom interventions to promote self-compassion, such as the blessings exercise, relaxation techniques, gratitude visits, and savoring, are outlined, as well as important cultural and developmental considerations.
Intervention Strategies Promoting Academic Self-Efficacy In Prospective First-Generation College Students: A Literature Review, Kathryn G. Atanasov, Nataliya Dudnytska, Todd Estes, Julie Marsh
Intervention Strategies Promoting Academic Self-Efficacy In Prospective First-Generation College Students: A Literature Review, Kathryn G. Atanasov, Nataliya Dudnytska, Todd Estes, Julie Marsh
The William & Mary Educational Review
This literature review first identifies the challenges facing prospective first-generation college students (PFGCS) including a lack of academic preparation in high school, financial barriers created by lower socioeconomic status (SES), and a lack of family support due to unfamiliarity with higher education (Majer, 2009; Olive, 2008; Weiser & Riggio, 2010). Second, this literature review examines the positive correlation between increased academic self-efficacy (ASE) and academic achievement (Elias & Loomis, 2002; Robbins et al., 2004; Zajacova, Lynch, & Espenshade, 2005). Third, this literature review provides a conceptual framework for PFGCS intervention program development based on four strategies found to influence ASE: …

Attitudes And Beliefs Of Heterosexual Sorority Women Toward Lesbian And Bisexual Chapter Members, Daniel C. Neumann, Mark A. Kretovics Ph.D., Elisabeth C. Roccoforte
Attitudes And Beliefs Of Heterosexual Sorority Women Toward Lesbian And Bisexual Chapter Members, Daniel C. Neumann, Mark A. Kretovics Ph.D., Elisabeth C. Roccoforte
Journal of Sorority and Fraternity Life Research and Practice
The authors explored the attitudes and beliefs of heterosexual sorority women toward lesbian and bisexual members at an urban, mid-western, private research university. The authors used a researcher-developed tool consisting of fifty-four Likert scale questions reduced to eight factors to provide evidence of measurement validity. A key finding of this study was that sorority women viewed themselves as very accepting of lesbian and bisexual members and held the belief that same-sex attraction in women is not immoral or inconsistent with their sorority values.

Weight Matters: African American Sorority Women Speak Up About Body Image, Robin Arnsperger Selzer Ph.D.
Journal of Sorority and Fraternity Life Research and Practice
Seidman’s (1998) Three-Interview Series was conducted with eight African American sorority women to explore history, details, and meaning of their body image. These themes were identified: Weight Trumps Everything Else, Family Criticism and Comparison, How I Look in Clothes, Intra-cultural Understanding of Black Women’s Bodies, Health Awareness, Media Responsibility, and Age. Participants made connections between sorority stereotypes and body image. Participants questioned motivation (self versus society) behind their feelings and behaviors. Participants wanted to help others achieve body image acceptance. Findings challenge the notion that African American women are “culturally protected” from body image dissatisfaction. Implications for practice are discussed.

In fall 2011, Kim Novak, a risk management consultant and Larry Wiese, then president of the Fraternity Executives Association (FEA) and Executive Director of Kappa Alpha Order approached the author about writing a White Paper that examined collaboration between staff from inter/national fraternity headquarters, chapter alumni leadership and administrators at colleges and universities in addressing student conduct by members of a chapter. The White Paper was presented at the FEA annual meeting in July 2012. The content of this article remains largely unchanged from the original White Paper and is published with permission from FEA.

Sorority Members’ Views Of Negative Stereotypes, Beate Wilson, Craig Tollini Ph.D.
Journal of Sorority and Fraternity Life Research and Practice
The purpose of this study was to have sorority members identify the negative stereotypes they believed other members of the university community had of them and the extent to which they believed these stereotypes were both accurate for and damaging to their chapters. To gather these perspectives, four focus groups were conducted with thirty-six women from four National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) member sororities at a medium-sized, midwestern, public university. In addition to the findings, implications and recommendations are also provided.
