Experimental And Observational Geometry, Albert D. Field

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Geometry has the distinction of being one of the oldest subjects given in the high-school.

Its subject-matter was formulated and organized by the Greeks into a fine system of thought before the time of Christ. Since leaving the hands of the Greeks, geometry has received only a few minor changes, and these largely in recent years.

Heretofore, the study of geometry has been made almost entirely dependent upon memory and reasoning. Geometricians have been slow in adopting the laboratory and observational methods.

This thesis has been written to encourage the student in his work of observing geometrical forms, and in …

A Thirty Year Educational History Of Albuquerque, New Mexico, Elizabeth Strong Shamberger

History ETDs

It has seemed to me that an educational history of the city in which I was born and reared would be an interesting and worth-while subject for a Master's Thesis: interesting to me because the names of men and women I have always known are written indelibly into its pages; worth-while to others because the account is as authentic and unbiased as a faithful study of the documents obtainable could make it.

The Preparation Of Hydroxy-Acridines And Different 5-Position Acridine Derivatives., Francis Bratten Rethwisch

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Jensen and Friedrich have outlined new methods for the preparation of acridine compounds. They have shown that the treatment of o-aminobensaldehyde with the halogen derivatives of nitrobenzene and with the corresponding derivatives of toluene would yield the corresponding diphenylamine derivatives. These diphenylamine derivatives split off water very easily to form acridine compounds. By this method they have prepared the 1(9)-nitro and 3(7)-nitroacridine, and the 1(9)-methyl and 3(7)-methylacridine. The general application of the reaction used in preparing these compounds has been examined, and it has been found that the reaction can be extended in two ways. Halogen derivatives of benzene compounds, …

Color., Bruce B. Vance

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Color, any attempt to apply the scientific principles of color vision in the making of a picture must surely fail if it be not granted at the out set that it is only to a limited degree that those principles can apply. Color appreciation is as much a psychical as a physiological, and indeed, it is psychical not only with regard to the objective impression itself, but also with regard to the subjective, the associational mental process. Previous knowledge and training, experience traditions, the association of color impressions with impressions previously received through other senses and stored away as memories, …

Modern Youth And Literature (With Emphasis Upon Creative Education), Ralph Westerman

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

In writing a thesis dealing with such an amazingly wide subject as modern youth one is staggered by the quantities of material that one must read. It is true that most of the research work concerning the young American is propaganda of one kind of another: someone must prove that youth is degenerate; or someone must prove that youth is god-like. Between these two extremes much has been written in an attempt to prove that youth is simply youth--little or no different from the youth of any other age. It is all very illuminating and it is all a bit …

Biological And Psychological Study Of Twenty Pairs Of Twins Ranging From Seven To Eighteen Years Of Age, Albert C. Worden

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Although twins have always been of great Interest the only early data available are upon conjoined twins. The first record of such twins, which 18 known, 1s of the Bid-dendent Maids in the year 1100 A. D. From that date to the year 1824 when the Siamese Twins were born and later made famous by Barnum and Bailey's Circus, there have been many Interesting accounts of conjoined twins, but the nature of the present work and the probable unreliability of these accounts would make any discussion on the subject of these early conjoined twins not worth while.

Success, Failure, And Withdrawal Of Butler University Students, Matriculating During The Years 1919-1923 Inclusive, Leslie Blaine Maxwell

Graduate Thesis Collection

...Suggests the great parade of American boys and girls who enter and leave our colleges each year. It is surprising that this condition has existed for a long time with little, if any, scientific investigation as to the reasons why these boys and girls withdraw before completing the course. Considering the number of institutions of higher learning in the United States, very little has been done to solve the problem.

The Tacna-Arica Dispute, Edith Eileen Knoles

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The history of the Tacna-Arica Dispute presents varied problems to the student of international relations. From the period of Spanish American independence to the present there have developed new aspects of international law and practice according to the light brought upon it by several generations of experience, The circumstances of Per’s throwing her influence with Bolivia in the War of the Pacific in order to preserve the “balance of power” illustrate the traditional type of alliance entered into by nations fearing the growing strength of neighboring countries; the appeal to patriotic impulse and sentiment in carrying on a war whose …

A History Of Education In Porto Rico, Elna Mae Miller

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this thesis is to give an outline of education and its progress on the island of Porto Rico, from the coming of the Spaniards through the years of American control. It is not written for experts on Porto Rican education, although it is the data of such experts, that has made this work possible. It is rather for those American students, who know little or not.hing of this possession, its early history, or its educational problems past or present; and yet who, like myself hear more and more of this island each year, so fast is it …
