Female And Male Student Athletes' Perceptions Of Career Transition In Sport And Higher Education: A Visual Elicitation And Qualitative Assessment, C. Keith Harrison
Female And Male Student Athletes' Perceptions Of Career Transition In Sport And Higher Education: A Visual Elicitation And Qualitative Assessment, C. Keith Harrison
Dr. C. Keith Harrison
The termination of a collegiate athletic career is inevitable for all student athletes. The purpose of this study was to explore student athletes’ perceptions of the athletic career transition process. One-hundred-andforty- three (n = 143) National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division II student athletes were administered the Life After Sports Scale (LASS) designed by the authors. The LASS is a 58-item mixed method inventory. The scope of this inquiry explored the qualitative section, which examined participants’ perceptions that were visually primed with a narrative description of a student athlete who made the transition out of collegiate sport successfully. Three major …
College Students' Perceptions, Myths, And Stereotypes About African American Athleticism: A Qualitative Investigation, Keith Harrison
College Students' Perceptions, Myths, And Stereotypes About African American Athleticism: A Qualitative Investigation, Keith Harrison
Dr. C. Keith Harrison
Examining the ‘natural’ athlete myth and utilizing the recent literature on cultural/social factors in athleticism, this study through survey research examines the myth of the ‘natural’ African American athlete. Participants consist of 301 university students from a large, traditionally White, midwest institution. The primary research question is to determine the attitudes of college students in terms of how they perceive the success of the African American athlete in certain sports. The purpose is to assess participants’ perceptions of the African American athlete and their opinion as to whether or not African American athletes are superior in certain sports (football, basketball, …

Ethnicity As Cognition, Rogers Brubaker, Mara Loveman, Peter Stamatov
Ethnicity As Cognition, Rogers Brubaker, Mara Loveman, Peter Stamatov
Rogers Brubaker
This article identi¢es an incipient and largely implicit cognitive turn in the study of ethnicity, and argues that it can be consolidated and extended by drawing on cognitive research in social psychology and anthropology. Cognitive perspectives provide resources for conceptualizing ethnicity, race, and nation as perspectives on the world rather than entities in the world, for treating ethnicity, race, and nationalism together rather than as separate subfields, and for re-specifying the old debate between primordialist and circumstantialist approaches.
Language, Power, And Social Interaction (Fall 2004 Syllabus), Adam Hodges
Language, Power, And Social Interaction (Fall 2004 Syllabus), Adam Hodges
Adam Hodges
The objective of this course is to critically examine the role of language in articulating, maintaining, and subverting relations of power in society. We will ground our study by first looking at basic ideas on linguistic relativity, the idea that one adjusts to reality in large part through language. Then, we will explore the many dimensions of power in society and the role that language plays in this diagram of power. We will focus specifically on media language and political language; and critically analyze examples of discourse in an attempt to understand the power relations that undergird social interactions. This …
Masonry And Orangeism: More Fraternal And Less Vitrolic In A Changing Scene, Paul J. Rich
Masonry And Orangeism: More Fraternal And Less Vitrolic In A Changing Scene, Paul J. Rich
Paul J. Rich
The Orange Order has figured in Irish history and in the problems of Northern Ireland for two centuries. Although it has many Masonic affinities, it is an international movement (Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the United States, parts of Africa) with it sown distinct culture, and its rituals at times have supported a virulent Protestantism.

Bring It On: The Apocalypse Of George W. Bush, Marcus O'Donnell
Bring It On: The Apocalypse Of George W. Bush, Marcus O'Donnell
Marcus O'Donnell
This article examines a number of cinematic, literary and journalistic texts in the context of what film maker Tom Tykwer calls the “aesthetic memory” of September 11. In particular it explores the way these narratives relate to deeply embedded Western cultural myths of the apocalyptic. The apocalyptic language of American Christian fundamentalism and the heroic narratives of Hollywood film are explored as twin influences on a powerful civil religion dubbed by Jewett and Lawrence (2003) “The Captain America complex”.

Global crises reveal the weakness of our current ethical construct. A more inclusive ethical framework is needed to encourage and support sustainable development and management of resources and restoration of damaged ecosystems.

These are photographs of the presentation in Houston of Phi Beta Delta medallions to the Consuls General of Mexico and Indonesia, and the Chancellor of the University of Houston. I have always felt that we don't say thank you as much as we should, so honoring individuals is not a small thing. Too often the bulk of the honors go for athletic accomplishment. Students should see that civic and scholastic accomplishment also gets their kudos, which is why I have given time to the honor society movement.

52 Weekly Thoughts About Phi Beta Delta, Paul J. Rich
52 Weekly Thoughts About Phi Beta Delta, Paul J. Rich
Paul J. Rich
The little book of weekly thoughts which I wrote for Phi Beta Delta fulfills a need for readings at chapter meetings and initiations. in the nineteenth century, a great deal was produced for fraternal use -- notably by the great ritualist Albert Pike. Certainly there were others, but since one aspect of rituals was a supposed antiquity, anonymity was often the way to give legitimacy. Authoring pieces for ritual is definitely a backwater of literature!

A Corpus Study On The Item-Based Nature Of Early Grammar Acquisition., Adam Hodges, Valerie Krugler, Deborah Law
A Corpus Study On The Item-Based Nature Of Early Grammar Acquisition., Adam Hodges, Valerie Krugler, Deborah Law
Adam Hodges
This paper explores the item-based nature of child language acquisition by examining data from the CHILDES database (MacWhinney 2000). Two studies are explicated: the first uses pooled data from several children, and the second follows a single child longitudinally. The results show that the learning of the complex construction consisting of a main clause followed by an infinitival compliment, e.g. I want to play, center around a single verb, want, even though other candidate verbs exist in the children’s vocabulary. We provide empirical evidence to show that children initially learn grammar via item-based units and gradually break down complex constructions …

Diagnosi Sociale E Eudaimonia. Platone E Honneth, In "Annali Del Dipartimento Di Filosofia Di Firenze", Ix-X (2004), Pp. 1-15., Marco Solinas
Marco Solinas
The paper is devoted to develop a connection between the Sozialphilosophie of Axel Honneth and Plato’s Republic. The main point is that Honneth’s research of a non formal theory of justice, connected with the idea of good life or eudaimonia, which permits a diagnosis of social pathologies, finds fecund confluences in the Plato’s doctrine.
The Production Of Popular Music As A Confidence Game: The Case Of The Chicago Blues, David Grazian
The Production Of Popular Music As A Confidence Game: The Case Of The Chicago Blues, David Grazian
David Grazian
In this article I argue that the production of live music shares many formal properties with that of confidence games: specifically, (1) a set of structural relationships in which operators, ropers, insiders, shills and marks are enmeshed, (2) the deployment of carefully planned strategies of deception, and (3) a pattern of success owed in part to the moral and financial motivations of insiders, the willingness of the state to assist in the enterprise, and the desire among victims to be swayed by the production. Drawing on ethnographic research conducted in some of Chicago’s most popular blues clubs, I examine these …
Opportunities For Ethnography In The Sociology Of Music, David Grazian
Opportunities For Ethnography In The Sociology Of Music, David Grazian
David Grazian
Since the 1920s the sociological study of music has greatly benefited from the contributions made by researchers who use ethnographic methods in their work, and in this article I review some of this noteworthy scholarship. I argue that the last 10 years have seen a flourishing of ethnography on the relationships between music and, respectively, gender, place, and globalization. I conclude by identifying three topics that could benefit from further ethnographic study: the use of popular music in the marketing of urban areas; the production process within the culture industries; and the consumption of music in real time and space.

Evolving Hinduism: Comparing The Bhagavad Gītā, Michele Gibney
Evolving Hinduism: Comparing The Bhagavad Gītā, Michele Gibney
Michele Gibney
Hinduism was a semi-fluid belief system in the medieval period of India. At first it was built around the Brahmin class who were the priests that had the ritual authority to perform elaborate sacrifices for the other three caste levels. There was also then the canon of Vedic literature, one aspect of which was the Upanişads. The Upanişads preached a solitary, hermit-like existence which emphasized meditation. This produced a strong ascetic body, but did not contribute to the continuation of society as a whole. The Upanişads themselves were a reaction to the earlier traditions of priestly worship and predominance of …
