Ecology Of Passerine Birds Wintering At Utah Lake, Joseph R. Murphy

Theses and Dissertations

During the period of October to April of the winter of 1950-51, an ecological study was undertaken of a population or passerine birds wintering in a segment of the Utah Lake Shore. Available winter weather data indicated that although such factors as precipitation, temperature, and wind may often be severe, they are not critical enough to prevent a fairly large population of passerine birds from spending the winter months in the study locale. Five fairly distinct plant communities can be recognized in the area. There is evidence which indicates that certain passerine bird species are especially dependent on a particular …

A Parent And Pupil Evaluation Of Three High Schools In Southeastern North Dakota, Lowell J. Mitchell

Theses and Dissertations

Horace Mann once said: "All measures designed to promote education must depend for their success, in this country, on the hearty cooperation of public opinion. It is only by enlightening and concentrating of the opinion that powerful effects can be produced". This study, from the beginning, accepted that viewpoint. It was not interested in producing simply another report to gather dust on library shelves. It was desired to develop materials and procedures capable of influencing the actual operation of the secondary schools of the state.
