University of Nebraska State Museum: Programs Information

Archaeologists apply the term "projectile point" to a wide range of tools. Although they used to think projectile points were used only for spears, they now realize hat the heavier, ill-shaped points were used as knives. Ahler 1971).

Projectile points can be made from just about anything that can be sharpened, including stone, glass, wood, bone, and metal. Flaked stone points are most common in Nebraska, although metal points and occasionally bone points have been found.

A Study Of Curricular And Spatial Characteristics Of Selected Public And Private Secondary School Facilities Constructed From 1967 Through 1976 In Puerto Rico, Manuel Velazquez Jr.

Dissertations

Problem. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the spatial allocation for curricular purposes and the special features of each of the twenty-seven public and private secondary schools built in Puerto Rico during the years 1967-1976. The problem was: Were these schools being constructed in accordance with the desired curriculum; was the curriculum an outgrowth of the resulting physical structures, or were the curriculum and the planning of the structures unrelated? -- Method. The spaces within the building were grouped into three major categories: (a) classrooms and laboratories; (b) special facilities; and (c) operation and services facilities. In order …

Concepts Of Career And General Education, Paul A. Olson

Department of English: Faculty Publications

This paper examines the distinctions between general education and education for a career, with a view to synthesizing the literature and presenting salient problems. General education can be defined in several ways. It is defined here as education that puts a person in touch with the main outlines of knowledge available to a historical period or a given culture. Theoretically, education is general if it has no one specific vocation as its end and no one specific discipline or partisan viewpoint as its specialty. By way of example, the medieval quadrivium and trivium can be viewed as "general education," in …

Jacobs High School Instructional Materials Center Policy And Procedure Handbook, Kenneth Gene Felgenhour

Masters Theses

The Purpose of the study was to design a handbook containing objectives, policies, procedures and rules for the instructional media program at H. D. Jacobs High School.

This challenge was met at this high school to a certain extent, but the smoothness or professional element was lacking. The efficiency of operation is the premise of concern with which the policy-and-procedure handbook deals.

The ideas for this handbook have been compiled from years of visiting libraries and media centers. While visiting libraries …

The Hognose Snake: A Prairie Survivor For Ten Million Years, M. R. Voorhies, R. G. Corner, Harvey L. Gunderson

University of Nebraska State Museum: Programs Information

Because they hiss and strike violently when aroused, the harmless little hognose snakes are often considered to be poisonous by people who encounter them. They are not venomous but are truly remarkable animals with specialized behavior and anatomy unusually well suited for life in the grasslands of central North America.

The University of Nebraska State Museum has recently acquired fossil evidence regarding the evolutionary history of these common Great Plains reptiles. We can now trace the record of the hognose snakes back to a time long before the arrival of man, the bison, or even the mammoth on the North …
