Sherwood Anderson: Man Lives Alone, Jean M. Hill Jan 1964

Sherwood Anderson: Man Lives Alone, Jean M. Hill

Student Work

The purpose of the study is to present as Sherwood Anderson's main theme, man's inability to communicate with his fellows and the resultant loneliness of a lifetime. The intense need for understanding meets with inarticulate voices, walls, isolation, and darkness. No communication is possible, and not only must man be born alone and die alone, he must also live alone.

Thou Shalt Keep Christmas: An Operetta For Upper Elementary Grades Or Junior High School Performance, Marion Gertrude Arends Jan 1964

Thou Shalt Keep Christmas: An Operetta For Upper Elementary Grades Or Junior High School Performance, Marion Gertrude Arends

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Numerous operettas with Christmas themes, some sacred, some secular, some employing familiar carols, and some entirely original in both text and lyrics have been written for the elementary grades and junior high. There are many pageants depicting Christmas customs and using carols from many countries of the world. However, an investigation of available material has not revealed an operetta based strictly on carols and customs of just one country. The carols and customs of Old England three and four centuries ago are particularly interesting because of the fact that our founding fathers came from the shores of that country, and …

Three Hypotheses Concerning Art Nouveau, Ralph H. Gaede Jan 1964

Three Hypotheses Concerning Art Nouveau, Ralph H. Gaede

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

A style of art, known to us today as Art Nouveau, developed throughout the countries of western Europe during the 1890's. As a style, Art Nouveau had its effect in varying degrees upon most of the art forms: architecture, the applied arts and decorative design, painting, sculpture, illustration, bookbinding, printmaking, ceramics, jewelry-making, and other minor art forms. Then, after encompassing this wide variety of creative activity, the forms of Art Nouveau faded and died out just prior to the First World War (1910-1915).


Using Sordaria Fimicola For Teaching Genetic Segregation, Crossing Over, And Probability, Roger Green Isaacson Jan 1964

Using Sordaria Fimicola For Teaching Genetic Segregation, Crossing Over, And Probability, Roger Green Isaacson

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Since the late 1950's, American education has been undergoing a critical evaluation and review. This review has brought about some changes in emphasis and an upgrading in science curricula. The American Institute of Biological Sciences, supported by the National Science Foundation, accepted major responsibility for the field of biology and established the Biological Science Curriculum Study (BSCS). H. Bentley Glass., Chairman of BSCS, states: "The aim of the Biological Science Curriculum Study is to place biological knowledge in its fullest modem perspective. To accomplish this aim, a program of research, writing, testing, and evaluation was inaugurated.

A Study Of Selected Employers’ Opinions Regarding The Terminal Education Programs Of Secondary Schools In Davenport, Iowa, Gerald Dwight Clemmensen Jan 1964

A Study Of Selected Employers’ Opinions Regarding The Terminal Education Programs Of Secondary Schools In Davenport, Iowa, Gerald Dwight Clemmensen

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

One of the failings of American education today is its inability to meet the needs of the average student in high school. Because of this failing, many young people, mostly boys, will drop out of high school sometime between beginning the tenth grade and finishing the twelfth grade. Because American education does not meet the needs of the average student, many youths, job hunting immediately following graduation from high school, will face a more difficult time in locating some type of employment than their elders did during the early 1930's.


Compaction Characteristics Of Fine Grained Soils., Lewis Clyburn Sowell Jan 1964

Compaction Characteristics Of Fine Grained Soils., Lewis Clyburn Sowell

Masters Theses

"The existing theories of compaction of soi Is are reviewed. The effect of varying the compactive effort on dry density, optimum moisture content, and compressive strength for three fine grained soils is investigated. These samples consist of si I ty clay (CL), plastic clay (CH), and loess (ML). The test results indicate that compactive effort has an important effect on the shape of the moisture density curve and that a potential for over compaction increases with a higher plastic index and c l ay content. At water contents above the Standard AASHO optimum value, the compressive strength is not appreciably …


Smith Wildman Brookhart: Iowa's Last Populist, Ray S. Johnston Jan 1964

Smith Wildman Brookhart: Iowa's Last Populist, Ray S. Johnston

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Since the age of Andrew Jackson, American political aspirants have recognized a value in being identified as a candidate of and from "the people." Frequently a good deal of effort and money is expended to convince the electorate that prospective officeholders are "self-made" men of humble origins. In this respect Smith Wildman Brookhart's early life might well epitomize the dream of a political public relations man, for he was truly of humble origins and was indeed a man who had overcome great odds. Smith Brookhart was born in a log cabin just across lowa's southern border in Scotland County, Missouri, …
