The Experience Of The Oblate Sisters Of Providence During The Civil War Era, Diane Batts Morrow

Journal of the Black Catholic Theological Symposium

In this paper, based on a talk delivered during the 2012 Annual Meeting in Miami Gardens, Florida, Dr. Morrow delves into the annals of the Oblate Sisters of Providence and reveals the challenges they faced during the Civil War Era and their strength and ingenuity in finding resourceful solutions to continue in their mission to educate black children and provide much-needed services for slaves and free blacks during this time. Their capacity for commitment and creativity at this time of existential conflict stands as a model even today.

Oncology Section Task Force On Breast Cancer Outcomes: Scapular Assessment, Mary Insana Fisher, Pamela K. Levangie

Methods: A systematic review of the literature on scapular measures was conducted. Relevant studies were examined for psychometric properties and clinical usefulness. Each method was given a recommendation score based on the Breast …

Human Rights And Emerging Actors: Indigenous Peoples And Peasants Redefining The Issues, Curtis Kline

Biennial Conference: The Social Practice of Human Rights

As the human rights regime has developed throughout history and especially post WWII, new actors have joined in its promotion. These actors have worked toward expanding identities having claims to human rights and how those claims can be conceptualized. This paper will look at two recent emerging identities. The first will be the identity of Indigenous Peoples and how they have redefined human rights engagement by working to create new UN human rights instruments and bodies. The redefinition of human rights issues will also be looked at in the context of the Indigenous Peoples identity. Issues such as the environment, …

Voices In The Wilderness: Catholic Ngos And The Challenge Of Human Rights, Kevin Ahern

Biennial Conference: The Social Practice of Human Rights

For over fifty years, Catholic nongovernmental organizations have been actively engaged in the promotion and protection of human rights around the world. From grassroots training programs to targeted advocacy work in Geneva, these organizations are helping to shape both scholarly discourse and political policy.

Given the growing role played by civil society actors, this paper will critically consider the ethical and theological significance of human rights NGOs, in particular Catholic organizations, in three parts. It will begin with a brief sketch of the present reality and historical relationship of Catholic NGOs to the human rights movements. Following Vatican II and …

Why Communication Rights Are Essential To The Protection And Advancement Of Human Rights In The 21st Century, Andy Valeri

Biennial Conference: The Social Practice of Human Rights

Communication is an intrinsically fundamental process to our being human. The very defining of our humanity, and our ability to fulfill all of our essential needs and capabilities is dependent upon it. The right to it is recognized as a fundamentally human one in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, as well as within numerous internationally recognized constitutions and covenants. However, the human rights community - its scholars, practitioners, advocates, and organizations – have devoted insufficient attention to the importance of this process, and its implications for making possible any truly effective progress in the ongoing efforts to advance human …

Reading Addams’S 'Democracy And Social Ethics' As A Social Gospel, Evolutionary Idealist Text, Marilyn Fischer

Philosophy Faculty Publications

There is a Disciplinary divide between philosophers and historians in how they read Addams’s first book, Democracy and Social Ethics. Philosophers identify Addams primarily as a pragmatist. They often compare and contrast her thinking with that of James and Dewey, and find her a fruitful resource for contemporary discussions about gender, social justice, and peace. Much of this scholarship gives central place to Addams’s Democracy and Social Ethics. Except for nods to her 1892 essay “The Subjective Necessity of Settlements,” philosophers rarely discuss whether her religious sensibilities influenced her theorizing.¹ While historians debate Addams’s religious identity, many …

All Majors Welcome: Library Internships And Career Development, Heidi Gauder, Katy Kelly, Colleen Hoelscher

Roesch Library Faculty Presentations

The academic library can play a crucial role in experiential learning, particularly through student internships. This library is one of the larger units on campus to employ student workers and we spend many hours training them to handle questions at service desks, assist with cataloging functions, help digitize materials, and a variety of other tasks. In 2011, we built on that idea of student workers and partnered with the University Honors Program to offer customized experiential learning through paid internships. These internships allowed us to spend additional time with students in preparation for their chosen careers or graduate school, helped …
