Vcu Voice (1991-02-08)

VCU Voice, 1988-1998

VCU Today, the University’s first official administrative organ, began as a somewhat irregular monthly publication but moved to a bi-weekly newspaper format in the 1980s. The newspaper changed its name to VCU Voice in 1988 and ten years later it appeared under the title UniverCity News. As it neared the end of its run as a physical newspaper, the publication became simply VCU News. These four publications were essentially the same periodical published under different titles by the Office of University Relations. VCU News appeared online for the first time in 2002.

Pharmacokinetics Of Ceftibuten-Cis And Its Trans Metabolite In Healthy Volunteers And In Patients With Chronic Renal Insufficiency, Judy Shepard Kelloway, Walid M. Awni, Chin C. Lin, Josephine Lim, Melton B. Affrime, William F. Keane, Gary R. Matzke, Charles E. Halstenson Jan 1991

Pharmacokinetics Of Ceftibuten-Cis And Its Trans Metabolite In Healthy Volunteers And In Patients With Chronic Renal Insufficiency, Judy Shepard Kelloway, Walid M. Awni, Chin C. Lin, Josephine Lim, Melton B. Affrime, William F. Keane, Gary R. Matzke, Charles E. Halstenson

Pharmacotherapy and Outcomes Science Publications

The impact of renal insufficiency on the dispositions of 300 mg of orally administered ceftibuten-cis, a new broad-spectrum oral cephalosporin, and its primary metabolite ceftibuten-trans was characterized in 30 adult subjects. Subjects were divided into five groups of six subjects each on the basis of their 24-h ambulatory creatinine clearances (CLCR). The apparent total body clearance (CLP/F; where F is absolute bioavailability) and renal clearance of ceftibuten-cis were significantly lower in subjects with end-stage renal disease (on maintenance hemodialysis; group V) and in those with severe (CLCR, 5 …

Cyanonews (Vol. 7, No. 2, September 1991), Jeff Elhai

CyanoNews

CyanoNews was a newsletter that served the cyanobacteriological community from 1985 to 2003, with content provided by readers (sort of a blog before there were blogs). The newsletter reported new findings from the lab, summaries of recent meetings (often provided by graduate students and post-docs entering the field), positions sought or available, life transitions, a compendium of recent cyanobacteria-related articles, and other items of interest to those who study cyanobacteria.

Observation Of Eliminative Cationic Polymerization Within Van Der Waals Clusters, M. Samy El-Shall, K. E. Schriver Jan 1991

Observation Of Eliminative Cationic Polymerization Within Van Der Waals Clusters, M. Samy El-Shall, K. E. Schriver

Chemistry Publications

We report the first observation of eliminative cationic polymerization within van der Waals (vdW) clusters following electron impact ionization at pressures of 10−8 Torr. The elimination reactions of C2H3Cl+ within the clusters terminate after three successive steps, each involving elimination of HCl or Cl. The results provide a mechanism for the early stages of gas phase cationic polymerization of vinyl chloride and demonstrate the feasibility of using vdW clusters as a means of studying gas phase cationic polymerization.

[Review Of] Philip Durham And Everett L. Jones. The Negro Cowboy, George H. Junne Jr. Jan 1991

[Review Of] Philip Durham And Everett L. Jones. The Negro Cowboy, George H. Junne Jr.

Explorations in Sights and Sounds

Except for books such as The Negro Cowboys, the African American West remains an enigma to most Americans. Popular media continue to perpetuate the stereotype of a white West, in spite of the fact that some of the earliest explorers accompanying the European invasion were of African descent. Beginning in 1501 with the Spanish conquest of Mexico, Africans were there. They were with Balboa when he "discovered" the Pacific, with Cortes in Mexico, with Cabeza de Vaca, Coronado, and others. Estevanico (Little Stephen) first explored New Mexico and Arizona.

[Review Of] Troy Duster. Backdoor To Eugenics, Steven J. Gold Jan 1991

[Review Of] Troy Duster. Backdoor To Eugenics, Steven J. Gold

Explorations in Sights and Sounds

During the first decades of this century, the theory of eugenics, which applied social Darwinism to human beings, was an influential movement. Its major contention was that Northern Europeans were genetically superior to other groups-Southern and Eastern Europeans, Asians, blacks and Jews. Therefore, the presence of these "inferior" groups in the U.S. should be limited, both by constraining the growth of their populations and by restricting their entry into the nation. Rooted in "science," eugenics was embraced by prominent intellectuals of the era, including Harvard psychologist William McDougall and University of Wisconsin sociologist E. A. Ross. The power of this …

Are You An Emissary Of Jesus Christ?: Justice, The Catholic Church And The Chicano Movement, Alberto L. Pulido Jan 1991

Are You An Emissary Of Jesus Christ?: Justice, The Catholic Church And The Chicano Movement, Alberto L. Pulido

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

In 1969, Católicos Por La Raza (CPLR) emerged as an ethnic "protest group" against the "injustices" of the American Catholic Church in San Diego and Los Angeles, California. CPLR was critical of the Catholic hierarchy's inconsistencies in relation to the Chicano community. As one of the wealthiest institutions, the Catholic Church was doing very little for a community that made up the largest part of the Church's membership. For CPLR, the Christian message of "justice" was not practiced by the leaders of the Church. In Los Angeles, Chicanos were asking why the Archdiocese chose to close a high school in …

[Review Of] Sheila K. Johnson. The Japanese Through American Eyes, Donald L. Guimary Jan 1991

[Review Of] Sheila K. Johnson. The Japanese Through American Eyes, Donald L. Guimary

Explorations in Sights and Sounds

For those interested in relations between Japan and the United States, this book is timely. It traces American stereotypes and attitudes about Japan from World War II to the later 1980s. The author, an anthropologist who has lived in that nation, uses examples of popular American culture -- books, magazines, films and public opinion poll results -- to trace attitudinal shifts in the U.S. She effectively uses illustrations and cartoons from magazines and newspapers -- New Yorker, Time, Playboy, and the New York Times -- to indicate how American opinions have ranged over this period.

Introduction: Ethnicity And Justice, Johnny Washington Jan 1991

Introduction: Ethnicity And Justice, Johnny Washington

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

The ideal of social justice in the United States has its roots in both the Judeo-Christian and ancient Greek traditions. From the latter our notion of democracy as a just institution is derived. At the theoretical level, Plato attempted to define ideal justice in his Republic, but here we are not concerned with ideal justice. At the practical level, the Hebrew prophet Amos urged public officials to practice justice as enjoined by Moses and his predecessors. Some 2700 years later Martin Luther King, Jr., sought to combine these two senses of justice when he insisted that America can satisfy its …

Critique [Of Oral Traditions Under Threat: The Australian Aboriginal Experience By Christine Morris], Alan Spector Jan 1991

Critique [Of Oral Traditions Under Threat: The Australian Aboriginal Experience By Christine Morris], Alan Spector

Explorations in Ethnic Studies

Christine Morris stimulates, provokes, and challenges some fundamental axioms about culture and literature in her intriguing essay. The absolutism of her position forces readers to critically examine their own ideas about the transmission and preservation of culture. Ultimately, I have some skepticism about the absolutism of her position, but her paper moved me several steps towards her position and caused me to evaluate my ideas on other issues as well.

Art And Politics In John Berger’S Novel A Painter Of Our Time, Stuart Richmond Jan 1991

Art And Politics In John Berger’S Novel A Painter Of Our Time, Stuart Richmond

Journal of Social Theory in Art Education

During the past two decades, art educators have been made more aware of the influence of ideologies in both art and education. We have seen, for example, as with Berger's Ways of Seeing (1972), and recent feminist art and scholarship, the degree to which art has been complicit in the stereotyping of women. We have been made increasingly aware of the broader social and political dimensions of art and art education and of the art of different ethnic groups. This journal is partly responsible for that shift of understanding.

Feminist Film Theory And Art Education, Michael J. Emme Jan 1991

Feminist Film Theory And Art Education, Michael J. Emme

Journal of Social Theory in Art Education

Every ten years or so, lonely voices make themselves heard in the art education literature shouting something like ‘Pay attention to the “newer media” (Lanier, 1966, p.7), or ‘Have you heard? There a “new image world” (Nadaner, 1985, p.9) out there.’ One writer even suggested that “directed, critical inquiry of [television] will extend knowledge in art and aesthetics and enhance the quality of peoples’ lives (Degge, 1985, p.85) Despite these sporadic exhortations, Jaglom and Gardner’s (1981) observation that “our culture has not yet invented ways of presenting [the mass media] or teaching its structure to children” (p.35) is still true …

Community Projects And The University Curriculum: Re-Searching For A Civil Rights History Through Community Photographs, Jan Peterson Roddy, Benita R. Vanwinkle Jan 1991

Community Projects And The University Curriculum: Re-Searching For A Civil Rights History Through Community Photographs, Jan Peterson Roddy, Benita R. Vanwinkle

Journal of Social Theory in Art Education

The following articles represent a collaborative process, as does the project that we will discuss. It is not within the scope of these articles to engage in an in depth examination of community photography. This practice and its relationship to high art, cultural production and representation has been the topic of other very interesting investigations. We will instead focus on a possible relationship between community photography and the higher education curriculum, wherein each project facilitates the other. The first article represents my view of the pedagogical foundations of this relationship as the instructor and a participant in this process. The …

A Para-Critical/Sitical/Sightical Reading Of Ralph Smith’S Excellence In Art Education, Jan Jagodzinski Jan 1991

A Para-Critical/Sitical/Sightical Reading Of Ralph Smith’S Excellence In Art Education, Jan Jagodzinski

Journal of Social Theory in Art Education

Figuratively speaking Smith is an old, old man, at least three-hundred and fifty years old, a reincarnation of Matthew Arnold who established the field of liberal-humanist cultural tradition between 1852-1882. At that time, English literature carried into the school curriculum was an act of faith whereby the great works of literature would have a civilizing influence on the nation. They could do for the masses what the classics had apparently failed to do for the privileged: to provide a bulwark against rising materialism (akin to the leisure and apathy of our youth today); compensate for the failure of religion to …
