Paleontology, Geography, And Biochemistry Of The Pratum Mammoth, Western Oregon, Stacie J. Cearley

Undergraduate Honors Theses

In August of 1967 remains of a mammoth were discovered in a peat bog in Pratum, a small farming community near Salem, Oregon.

Teaching Washington State History Through The Arts: A Curricular Guide, Rebekah Norgard Jan 2008

Teaching Washington State History Through The Arts: A Curricular Guide, Rebekah Norgard

All Graduate Projects

Students benefit both academically and nonacademically when a core subject is taught through the arts. The arts allow students to develop cognitively, extend their research skills, define their ability to problem solve, and strengthen their self-image. Personal connections and student attentiveness is increased when classes incorporate the study of the arts. The purpose of this project was to encourage the integration of arts into core subjects and provide a framework and examples of effective arts content infusion as an instructional strategy for use by Washington State History teachers.

The Commerce Clause, Interstate Compacts, And Marketing Water Across State Boundaries., Michael Pease, Olen Paul Matthews Jul 2006

The Commerce Clause, Interstate Compacts, And Marketing Water Across State Boundaries., Michael Pease, Olen Paul Matthews

Geography Faculty Scholarship

Increasing competition for scarce water resources should lead to a re-examination of constraints on water reallocation. Some constraints are "spatial" in nature and reduce the areal extent of reallocation processes. Interstate compacts are an example. Proponents of state protectionism look on compacts as a permanent allocation of water between states. A willing seller is not allowed to sell their water to a willing buyer in another state. On the other hand, the U.S. Constitution's Commerce Clause was designed to create an economic union that includes all states and all citizens. State attempts at economic protectionism through export bans are generally …
