A Study To Determine The South Dakota School Districts' Information Programs, Policies, And Attitudes, Donald A. Clyde

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

There are a great many problems in education today. One of them is the growing reluctance of the public to support the high cost of education. Communications and public relations are considered to be helpful tools in explaining school needs and policy to the public. But are the schools in South Dakota making a rational use of these tools? To do so, a public relations-community relations communication policy ls needed. This thesis will evaluate the public relations policy of South Dakota schools--the policy of communicating with the public. It will focus on the school district policy. Included in the discussion …

An Investigation Of Subscriber Attitudes Toward The Clark County Courier, Duane Anthony Dolney

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Although the editor of a weekly newspaper can use the size of his subscription list and the letters to the editor to determine how area residents feel about his newspaper, the amount of information acquired and the accuracy of such information are limited. Another determinant which the editor could use is feedback the employees of the newspaper receive from the subscribers and the other residents of the community. It was through this feedback that some dissatisfaction with the Clark County Courier was noticed. The author of this paper began working for The Clark County Courier as advertising manager in June, …

A Theoretical Investigation Of Shock Wave Stability In Sonic Inlets, Assem A. Fathy

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

A theoretical investigation of the shock wave stability applicable to "sonic" and supersonic inlets is presented. It is assumed that the boundary layer remains attached and that the principal sources of instability are the acoustic wave reflections from the shock wave and the face. The analysis is based on linearized one-dimensional flow theory and involves the solution of the wave equation with variable coefficients. The solution is obtained by series expansion. The results suggest that shock stability is mainly dependent on the shock strength and to a certain extent on the area distribution. For a given geometry, increasing the shock …

Selected Anatomical And Physiological Responses As Affected By A Rope-Skipping And Cycling Program For College Women, Betty Jane Lengkeek

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to test the effects of a bicycle ergometer program and a rope-skipping program on the cardiovascular efficiency of a selected group of college freshman women. The effects of the two programs on percent body fat, body weight, strength, and endurance were also tested. During the course of this study, the following hypothesis was tested: There are no significant differences among a rope-skipping group, a bicycle ergometer-exercising group, and a control group in the development of selected anatomical and physiological responses.

1. The subjects involved in this study were thirty-three freshman women from basic instruction …

A Multi-Item Inventory Model, Ramakrishnan Krishnan

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

During the last fifteen years there has been a rapid growth of interest in scientific inventory control; the use of mathematical models to obtain rules for operating inventory systems. The subject has attracted such wide interest that today every serious student in the Industrial Engineering and related fields is expected to have had some experience with inventory models. Originally, the development of inventory models had practical applications as an immediate objective. Today, inventory models are being developed at many different levels, ranging from the direct application in practical problems to the development of abstract mathematical models. The earliest derivation of …

Motivating Factors In The Purchase Of Specific Clothing Items By Selected Groups Of Men In South Dakota, Sandra Schroder Moore

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this study was to investigate the motivating factors that influenced a selected group of men in South Dakota in purchase of clothing. The returns were grouped so that buying practices of men in East River and West River were compared, and buying practices of men from urban and rural areas were compared. Changes in men's clothing have begun to change at an accelerating rate compared with relatively slow changes that took place in the past. These changes have come in many forms such as new colors, new styles, and new fabrics. Because of these innovations in men's …

Estimation Of An Economic Social Return To The Investment In The Undergraduate Education Of One Graduating Class Of A University, Ronald N. Lafferty

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Colleges and universities compete for financial resources with societal needs such as defense, transportation, health, welfare, and recreation. Any expenditure for education has an alternative use in some other activity. Both education and the alternative activity would produce financial and non-financial benefits. Comparison of the non-financial benefits must almost always be subjective. The purpose of this study is to make possible an objective comparison of the financial benefits. Empirical estimates of the financial benefits are available expenditures in most activities; however, no estimates of the financial benefits are available for specific investments in education. The decision maker is forced to …

Synthesis And Room Temperature Nmr Analysis Of Dimethylpiperazines, David L. Lyle

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

A survey of the literature has been made on the syntheses of 2,5- and 2,6-dimethylpiperazines. Several new N-substituted dimethylpiperazines were subsequently prepared. These are: cis-2,6-dimethyl-4-mesyl-piperazine, cis-2,5-dimethyl-l,4-dimesylpiperazine, and trans-2,5-dimethyl-l,4-dimesylpiperazine (Jl). Attempted syntheses of trans-2,6-dimethylpiperazine (!±,) are also discussed. Room temperature nmr analysis of these and other previously known piperazine isomers supports the hypothesis that the more energetically equivalent equilibrating conformers are the more compact the AB portion of the ABX pattern of the piperazine ring protons. This technique provides a convenient method for suggesting the configuration and conformation at room temperature of the seventeen isomers and derivatives that were studied. Piperazine …

A Survey Of The Relationship Among Occupational Information And Career Choices Of General College Students And Printing Management Students At South Dakota State University And Employees Of Fetter Printing Company, Dennis Robert Lundgren

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

I believe that the Graphic Arts industry will in the future face a severe manpower shortage if it fails to attract new blood, young men and women, into the field. This possible manpower shortage led me to study the reasons why people entered the Graphic Arts industry. People seem to reject the Graphic Arts industry as an occupational choice for several reasons which encouraged me to undertake this study. One of these reasons, the fact that people did not know of the opportunities in the field, was my primary reason. A second possible reason was that these people very seldom …
