Editor's Note, Faythe Tumer Jan 1997

Editor's Note, Faythe Tumer

Ethnic Studies Review

This issue of the Journal of the National Association of Ethnic Studies presents an interesting cross section of ethnic groups in the United States: Native American, Vietnamese, Latino, African American. Several of the articles involving these groups raise the persistent question of assimilation versus acculturation and where the health and welfare of the children of immigrants or the younger generation of immigrants lies. Shaw N. Gynan in "Hispanic Immigration and Spanish Maintenance as Indirect Measures of Ethnicity: Reality and Perceptions" has found that the newest generation of Latinos not only are more involved ethnically with their Spanish heritage than earlier …


Community Versus Assimilation: A Study In American Assimilation At Saint Joseph's Indian Industrial School, Sarah Shillinger Jan 1997

Community Versus Assimilation: A Study In American Assimilation At Saint Joseph's Indian Industrial School, Sarah Shillinger

Ethnic Studies Review

No govemment policy has had more of an impact on American Indians than the boarding school movement of the early to mid-twentieth century. This movement isolated American Indian children from their homes and communities and attempted to assimilate them into European-American society. This article studies the effects of this policy on children at the Saint Joseph's Indian Industrial School in Wisconsin. It uses oral history to recapture the voices and experiences of teachers and students. The use of oral history allows a comprehensive understanding of the cultural, social and academic atmosphere of the school.


An Examination Of Social Adaptation Processes Of Vietnamese Adolescents, Fayneese Miller, My Do, Jason Sperber Jan 1997

An Examination Of Social Adaptation Processes Of Vietnamese Adolescents, Fayneese Miller, My Do, Jason Sperber

Ethnic Studies Review

The purpose of the study was to examine the factors that affect the ways in which Vietnamese youth feel about themselves and their "place" in society. More specifically, the purpose was to determine the relationship between sociocultural factors (L e. language proficiency, length of residence, socioeconomic class, ethnic identity, and cultural continuity) and such person-oriented variables as depression and alienation. Thrity-one college and fifteen high school students responded to a series of questions about themselves, family, relationships, personality, and achievement motivation. It was found that perceived problems with one's ethnic group, cultural continuity, and parental attitudes toward schooling significantly predicted …

The Poor And Third Millennium, Gustavo Gutiérrez Jan 1997

The Poor And Third Millennium, Gustavo Gutiérrez

Marianist Award Lectures

Gustavo Gutiérrez reflects on the meaning of liberation theology and the preferential option for the poor. He explains that the preferential option comes from the goodness of God, who loves the poor because they are “closest to an unjust and early death.” The preferential option for the poor therefore demands that ethics influence economics.

An Agnostic's Bible Contract And Related Obligation: Theory, Doctrine, And Practice, 3d Edition By Robert S. Summers And Robert A. Hillman, Sidney W. Delong

Seattle University Law Review

A casebook's warranties appear in its preface. In their Preface to the First Edition, the authors of Contract and Related Obligation (CRO) undertook to do the following: (1) acquaint the student with the lawyer's role in contractual relations; (2) stress the “private-made” character of much of what we call law; (3) expose students to many different theories about contract; (4) renew the waning practice of “dialectical” teaching by using largely unedited principal cases, and by eschewing summaries and textual notes; (5) reveal the many extra-legal sources of law, including moral, political, and economic reasoning; and (6) offer more general insights …

Gas Mass Fractions And The Evolution Of Spiral Galaxies, Stacy S. Mcgaugh Jan 1997

Gas Mass Fractions And The Evolution Of Spiral Galaxies, Stacy S. Mcgaugh

Faculty Scholarship

We show that the gas mass fraction of spiral galaxies is strongly correlated with luminosity and surface brightness. It is not correlated with linear size. Gas fraction varies with luminosity and surface brightness at the same rate, indicating evolution at fixed size. Dim galaxies are clearly less evolved than bright ones, having consumed only ∼1/2 of their gas. This resolves the gas consumption paradox, since there exist many galaxies with large gas reservoirs. These gas-rich galaxies must have formed the bulk of their stellar populations in the last half of a Hubble time. The existence of such immature galaxies at …
