Henry Whitestone : Nineteenth-Century Louisville Architect., Elizabeth Fitzpatrick Jones 1943-
Henry Whitestone : Nineteenth-Century Louisville Architect., Elizabeth Fitzpatrick Jones 1943-
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Henry Whitestone (1819-1893) practiced architecture in the nineteenth century when the prevailing mode in architectural styles was a series of historical revivals. His work, with few exceptions, was entirely within the style of the Italian Renaissance Revival. The present study is an investigation of the historical styles he used and their probable sources, his place in the architectural milieu of the era and of Louisville, and a description of his life, his practice and his clients. In accomplishing these goals much new source material, heretofore unknown, has been used. Whitestone was extremely careful and exacting; he expected and received excellent …
Development Of A Simulation Game In The Area Of Housing, Beverlee Olson Buenning
Development Of A Simulation Game In The Area Of Housing, Beverlee Olson Buenning
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This study focused on the development of a simulation game to teach certain aspects of housing. Underlying the development of the game was the assumption that a simulation game can be an effective teaching technique. The development of the game involved the use of a simulation design: objectives and generalizations for housing, questions that required decision-making, and designing a game board. More precise objectives were (1) to gain information about simulation gaming, particularly current research in the area of gaming in home economics, and (2) to develop a game for use in teaching specific behavioral objectives in the area of …

Molecular Orbital Calculations For [Mo(Cn)₈]⁴⁻ An Investigation Of Eight Coordination Geometries, Patty S. Herman
Molecular Orbital Calculations For [Mo(Cn)₈]⁴⁻ An Investigation Of Eight Coordination Geometries, Patty S. Herman
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Until the last twenty years only a few discrete 8-coordinate transition metal complexes were known. Increased interest in 8-coordination has led to the synthesis and characterization of a great many 8-coordinate compounds. Application of 3-dimensional X-ray analysis has made structural determination of these complexes much simpler. Two configurations dominate the stereochemistry of discrete 8-coordination, the D4d square antiprism and the D2d triangular dodecahedron. Both of these structures can be obtained by distorting the cube, a configuration not commonly observed. A 45° rotation of one square face of a cube about the perpendicular axis through that face results in the antiprism …
The Public Relations Efforts Of South Dakota Colleges And Universities As Reflected By The Attitudes Of South Dakota High School Seniors, Daniel F. Jorgensen
The Public Relations Efforts Of South Dakota Colleges And Universities As Reflected By The Attitudes Of South Dakota High School Seniors, Daniel F. Jorgensen
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This study will concentrate on one small, yet vital, public--the public composed of high school seniors. If this public is "aware" of what the South Dakota colleges and universities have to offer, then the public relations programs of those schools are having some effect. If the students are preparing for a college career, then it is important to the future of the state's higher education that they are aware of the costs and the offerings of its schools. Daniel Gladstone, a high school senior from New Jersey, supported this thinking in a personal opinion column in "Saturday Review." He said …
Themes Expressed In The Rhetoric Of Two Women's Rights Movements, Ann Holt Logan
Themes Expressed In The Rhetoric Of Two Women's Rights Movements, Ann Holt Logan
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Throughout American history, the question of women's rights initiated a substantial body of rhetoric. The two most prominent women's rights movements seem to be the woman's suffrage movement from 1848 to 1920 and the current women's liberation movement. The recurrence of organized movements on the subject of women's equal rights raises the question whether the themes expressed in the rhetoric of each movement are similar. Therefore, the purpose in this investigation was to discover the extent to which speaking on behalf of women's rights by women utilized recurring themes. The two most prominent women's rights movements seem to be the …

South Dakota Gubernatorial Inaugural Addresses, 1889-1931, Terry L. Peterson
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
For the purposes of this study it was judged necessary to define two terms: 1. Rhetorical environment has been defined as including the place of the inaugurals, the audiences present, and the issues prominent in the state at the time an inaugural address was delivered. 2. A theme is defined as an original statement that encompasses an overall idea and may have supporting assertions. A theme is subordinate only to the thesis and is coordinate with other themes. This particular study began as an analysis of all gubernatorial South Dakota inaugural addresses from 1889 through 1973. However, after the research …

Reactions Of Reduced Glutathione With Some Methylated Selenium Compounds, Nancy Wendt Thiex
Reactions Of Reduced Glutathione With Some Methylated Selenium Compounds, Nancy Wendt Thiex
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Selenium biochemistry has been of general interest since the discovery of selenium as the toxic agent in certain plants, which when ingested by animals causes a definite disease syndrome and even death. Early scientists suggested that the logical place in the body for toxic selenium compounds to attack was at the various sites occupied by sulfur. In 1939 a study was published which indicated that reduced glutathione (GSH), a thiol, protected rats against death from a minimum fatal dose of selenium given as sodium selenite. Since this discovery, the reaction of GSH with various selenium containing compounds has been the …

The study was conducted by using a five-percent simple random sample of SDSU students. A questionnaire, which asked the 224 respondents the first source of information, the time of hearing the news, location of hearing the news, if they had told the news to anyone else after hearing it, and if they had sought further information from any source, is the basis for this study. The most important finding from this study …
Legislative Efforts Pertinent To The Subject Matter Of Selected Debate Propositions From 1920 To 1967, Michie J. Wienk
Legislative Efforts Pertinent To The Subject Matter Of Selected Debate Propositions From 1920 To 1967, Michie J. Wienk
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
National intercollegiate debate propositions have dealt with topics of national or international concern since 1920. In A History of Speech Education in America, L. Leroy Cowperthwaite and A. Craig Baird stated that the subjects selected for debate propositions have clearly reflected the political, 'economic, and sociological issues of the time. Since the topics selected for intercollegiate debate refer to national and international subjects that are reflective of timely issues, it may be beneficial to those concerned with topic selection, and. anyone else involved. or interested in debate, to determine to what extent the national intercollegiate debate propositions have been reflected …

An Evaluation Of Parliamentary Procedure Programs In South Dakota Future Farmers Of America Chapters, Calvin E. Willemssen
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Since education at the high school level is training many students to go directly into the business and professional world as well as preparing them to attend other schools, it may be beneficial to look at one aspect of high school education to see if the students in that area are being offered adequate preparation for the challenge they face in today's world. The Future Farmers of America is a national organization of secondary school students studying vocational agriculture. As part of its course of instruction, FFA offers a section on parliamentary procedure. According to the book Modern Parliamentary Practices, …

Population Change In West Africa : 1954-1972, Ndidi Odashionu Okwumaba
Population Change In West Africa : 1954-1972, Ndidi Odashionu Okwumaba
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In the light of recent concern over world population growth, it would be interesting to study to what extent West Africa as a developing area has experienced changes in fertility, mortality and natural increase. This study would be especially interesting in that developing countries like those in West Africa account for approximately two-thirds of the world's population. Students of demography generally hold that as a rural agricultural country becomes more urbanized and industrialized, a transition also occurs in the demographic process. Under the influence of modernization, death rates decline rapidly while high fertility continues, producing a rapid population growth that …

Biological Control Of Musk Thistle, Carduus Nutans, In South Dakota, Dennis Morihara
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Two sites in southeastern South Dakota were used in this study. Both sites supported unusually dense infestations of C. nutans and were chosen on that basis. Site A was located at an unoccupied farmstead in Minnehaha County, 2 miles S.W. of Crooks. This site was composed of 3 distinct infestations of musk thistle: (1) the first stand of thistles was approximately 2 x 9 m surrounded by Siberian elm, Ulmus pumila L., Conyza canadensis (L.) Cronquist (mare's tail) and a Bromus sp., probably B. inermis Leysser. The thistles in this area stood 2+ m tall at maturity. (2) The second …
