Survey Of Student Satisfaction With Financial Aid Services, Elise Wrye Boyett Jan 1998

Survey Of Student Satisfaction With Financial Aid Services, Elise Wrye Boyett

College of Graduate Studies: Theses & Dissertations (1964–2006)

Financial aid offices exist in virtually every postsecondary institution in the United States. They disburse money to students in a variety of methods, including scholarships and grants with no repayment requirements, and various loans with payback responsibilities varying in terms of time, rate of interest, and who pays. Institutions use financial aid funds for multiple purposes — to attract highly qualified students, to attract students to specific programs, and to assist students who would not otherwise be able to attend. Thus, financial aid and student enrollment are closely related.

Over the last 40 years, the primary purpose of financial aid …

Evaluation Of Information Modeling Methods: A Review, Keng Siau, Matti Rossi Jan 1998

Evaluation Of Information Modeling Methods: A Review, Keng Siau, Matti Rossi

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Hundreds of modeling methods are in existence today. Yet practitioners and researchers are zealously "producing" new modeling methods. The "blooming" of modeling methods is not the problem; the lack of standardize techniques for evaluating them is. To further complicate the matter, most of the modeling methods are introduced based on common sense and intuition. Theoretical foundations and empirical evidence are severely lacking. With the current state of affairs, evaluation of modeling methods has become necessary. Comparing modeling methods provides us with the necessary knowledge and understanding on the strengths and weaknesses of each method. This knowledge can also guide us …

Commentary On 'Assignment Of Contractual Burdens', Howard Hunter Jan 1998

Commentary On 'Assignment Of Contractual Burdens', Howard Hunter

Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law

Professor Michael Furmston begins his fine paper with the statement that ‘Contract textbooks treat it as axiomatic that contractual burdens cannot be assigned’. This commentary can begin with the equally forceful statement that contract textbooks in the United States treat as axiomatic the proposition that most contractual burdens can be freely assigned.


Liberalism And Multiculturalism: The Politics Of Indifference, Chandran Kukathas Jan 1998

Liberalism And Multiculturalism: The Politics Of Indifference, Chandran Kukathas

Research Collection School of Social Sciences

In modern societies, particularly the societies of the liberal democratic West, cultural diversity poses a challenge not only to the makers of government policy, but also to the philosopher looking to understand how it might be possible-in principle-for people of different ways to live together. The challenge is posed because society's institutions have been challenged, as the members of different groups have demanded "recognition." They have demanded not simply recognition of their claims to a (just) share of the social pie but, more important, recognition of their distinct identities as members of particular cultural communities within society. The persistence and, …


O Arquipélago Liberal: Contornos De Um Conceito De Liberalismo (In Portuguese), Chandran Kukathas, Ana Barradas Jan 1998

O Arquipélago Liberal: Contornos De Um Conceito De Liberalismo (In Portuguese), Chandran Kukathas, Ana Barradas

Research Collection School of Social Sciences

O objectivo desta comunicação consiste em delinear e defender um con- ceito de liberalismo. Na medida em que o liberalismo proporciona uma teoria sobre a natureza de uma sociedade livre, apresenta os contornos de uma teoria da liberdade particular. Mas a sua preocupação mais imediata é defen- der um modelo peculiar de sociedade livre. A natureza deste modelo talvez possa ser melhor entendida, pelo menos inicialmente, se considerarmos a teoria aqui apresentada como fazendo a defesa de um aspecto de determinada pergunta. Tal pergunta consiste em saber se o liberalismo identifica um conjunto de valores e padrões morais aos quais …

Book Review: Taoism Under The T'Ang: Religion And Empire During The Golden Age Of Chinese History By T. H. Barrett, Alan Kam Leung Chan

Research Collection College of Integrative Studies

To those who are interested in learning about (1) the language and inter- pretation of emotion in South and East Asian thought, (2) the philosoph- ical debates surrounding the nature and ethics of emotion, and (3) ways of doing comparative philosophy, Emotions in Asian Thought, edited by Joel Marks and Roger T. Ames, will not disappoint. Individually, the twelve essays collected here display considerable erudition and/or philosophical rigor.


Comparing The Discourse Of Popular Politics In Korea And China: From Civil Society To Social Movements, William A. Callahan Jan 1998

Comparing The Discourse Of Popular Politics In Korea And China: From Civil Society To Social Movements, William A. Callahan

Research Collection School of Social Sciences

The Korea Journal’s series of articles addressing the question of civil society are a timely addition to the struggle over the discourse of democracy which is common to many countries in Pacific Asia. Since Professor Han Sang-Jin’s article does an excellent job of critically summarizing Chung Chulhee, Cho Hein and David Steinberg’s arti cles on Korean civil society, it seems that there is not much more to be said on the topic. To add to this discussion I will try to expand the discourse geographically and conceptually. Geographically, I will compare the discourse of popular politics in Korea with that …


The Ideology Of Miss Thailand In National, Consumerist And Transnational Space, William A. Callahan Jan 1998

The Ideology Of Miss Thailand In National, Consumerist And Transnational Space, William A. Callahan

Research Collection School of Social Sciences

Every morning at 8:00 a.m. (with flag-raising) and every evening at 6:00 P.M. (with flag lowering) the official symbolic identity of Thai- land is displayed - by state order - on television. These displays are a graphic daily reminder of how nationalism, the military, and the media are tightly bound together in Thailand. Though it seems like a timeless tradition of respect for essential national symbols, this tele- vized ritual is the result of a "revolutionary order" issued by the right-wing dictators who took power with the brutal October 6, 1976, massacre and military coup.1 These media productions are part …

Fatty Acid Composition And Cholesterol Content Of Some Turkish Fish Species, Sedat İmre, Serap Sağlik Jan 1998

Fatty Acid Composition And Cholesterol Content Of Some Turkish Fish Species, Sedat İmre, Serap Sağlik

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

It is well known that fish lipids are effective against cardiovascular diseases due to their high contents of polyunsaturated omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids. In order to determine a suitable fish diet, the fatty acid compositions and total lipid and cholesterol contents of 9 common fish species obtained from the central fish market in Ğstanbul were determined. Palmitic (C-16:0) and oleic acid (C-18:1) were the predominant saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids. The predominant polyunsaturated fatty acids were eicosapentaenoic (C-20:5) acid and docosahexaenoic (C-22:6) acid. The amounts of cholesterol in fish lipids did not differ significantly. Sardine ({\it Sardina pilchardus}) and mackerel …

Non-Volatile Dissolved Organic Iodine In Marine Water, Xianhao Cheng Jan 1998

Non-Volatile Dissolved Organic Iodine In Marine Water, Xianhao Cheng

OES Theses and Dissertations

An analytical scheme for the determination of marine DOI has been established. The concentration of DOI is estimated as total iodine (TI) minus total inorganic iodine (TII). The concentration of total iodine is determined as [special characters omitted] after DOI has been oxidized to inorganic iodine quantitatively by intensive UV-irradiation and all the inorganic iodine in the samples had been converted to [special characters omitted] by the addition of NaClO.

Production of DOI in seawater can be via both non-phytoplankton and phytoplankton related processes. In the former, iodide is converted to DOI. In the latter, most likely, iodate is converted …


Improvisation In Latin Dance Music: History And Style, Peter L. Manuel Jan 1998

Improvisation In Latin Dance Music: History And Style, Peter L. Manuel

Publications and Research

Latin dance music constitutes one of the most dynamic and sophisticated urban popular music traditions in the Americas. Improvisation plays an important role in this set of genres, and its styles are sufficiently distinctive, complex, and internally significant as to merit book-length treatment along the lines of Paul Berliner's volume Thinking in Jazz (1994). To date, however, the subject of Latin improvisation has received only marginal and cursory analytical treatment, primarily in recent pedagogical guidebooks and videos. While a single chapter such as this can hardly do justice to the subject, an attempt will be made here to sketch some …


Chutney And Indo-Trinidadian Cultural Identity, Peter L. Manuel Jan 1998

Chutney And Indo-Trinidadian Cultural Identity, Peter L. Manuel

Publications and Research

Since the early 1980s Indian diasporic communities have attained sufficient size, affluence, self-awareness and generational distance from South Asia to have created a set of popular music styles that are autonomous and distinctive rather than strictly derivative of Indian models. While the bhangra music of British Punjabis has attracted some scholarly and journalistic attention, chutney, a syncretic IndoCaribbean popular music and dance idiom, is little known outside its own milieu. This article constitutes a preliminary socio-musical study of chutney.
