Multicultural Mental Health Training Program: A Comprehensive Training Program For Ethnic Diverse Students, Richard Briscoe, Aaron Smith, Lawanda Ford, Mesmin Germain

Different Perspectives on Majority Rules: 4th Annual National Conference (1999)

“Focusing on the need of continued effort to bring more minority students into postgraduate standing and scholarship, implications of the present program are explored.”

Biblical Principles Which Can Lead The Campus Beyond The Categories Of Political Correctness Towards A Resolution Of Tension, Kenneth N. Young, Yvonne Redmond-Brown

Different Perspectives on Majority Rules: 4th Annual National Conference (1999)

“Faculty of color in higher education, in general, face unique challenges simply by their presence, therefore, it is unrealistic to expect that Christian institutions are immune to secular cultural influences.”

Artificial Equations, Artificial Distinctions: Language That Poisons The Waters Of Ethnic Relations, Kenneth D. Richardson

Different Perspectives on Majority Rules: 4th Annual National Conference (1999)

“It is my contention at this point that when race relations on campuses get better, it is in spite of, not because of, the proliferation of jargon-based rhetoric about diversity.”

Habitat Characteristics Of Small Mammals In Southeastern Utah, Maite Sureda, Michael L. Morrison

Great Basin Naturalist

We describe habitat characteristics of 8 small mammal species occurring in the Manti-LaSal National Forest in southeastern Utah. Thirty-seven grids across 7 vegetation types were sampled by live-trapping from May through October 1994 and 1995. Logistic regression models of habitat measurements correctly classified small mammal presence 36%–87% of the time. Except for 1 instance, 4 Peromyscus species present in a specific vegetation type were negatively associated with forb or grass cover. Microtus montanus was present primarily on mesas and was positively associated with tall tree and low shrub cover. Neotoma mexicana was present only in canyons and was found primarily …

Carrier Concentration And Lattice Absorption In Bulk And Epitaxial Silicon Carbide Determined Using Infrared Ellipsometry, Thomas E. Tiwald, John A. Woollam, Stefan Zollner, Jim Christiansen, R. B. Gregory, T. Wetteroth, S. R. Wilson, Adrian R. Powell

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering: Faculty Publications

We have measured the dielectric function of bulk nitrogen-doped 4H and 6H SiC substrates from 700 to 4000 cm^-1 using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopic ellipsometry. Photon absorption by transverse optical phonons produces a strong reststrahlen band between 797 and 1000 cm^-1 with the effects of phonon anisotropy being observed in the region of the longitudinal phonon energy (960 to 100 cm^-1). The shape of this band is influenced by plasma oscillations of free electrons, which we describe with a classical Drude equation. For the 6H-SiC samples, we modify the Drude equation to account for the strong effective …

Tropical Pacific Near-Surface Currents Estimated From Altimeter, Wind, And Drifter Data, Gary S. E. Lagerloef, Gary T. Mitchum, Roger B. Lukas, Pearn P. Niiler

Marine Science Faculty Publications

Tropical surface currents are estimated from satellite-derived surface topography and wind stress using a physically based statistical model calibrated by 15 m drogue drifters. The model, assumes a surface layer dominated by steady geostrophic and Ekman dynamics. Geostrophy varies smoothly from a beta plane formulation at the equator to an f plane formulation in midlatitude, with the transition occurring at similar to 2 degrees-3 degrees latitude. The transition is treated with a Gaussian weight function having a meridional decay scale that is found to be approximately the Rossby radius (similar to 2.2 degrees latitude). The two-parameter Ekman model represents drifter …

Chiral Lagrangian Treatment Of Pi Eta Scattering, Joseph Schechter, Deirdre Black, Amir H. Fariborz

Physics - All Scholarship

We study pi eta scattering in a model which starts from the tree diagrams of a non-linear chiral Lagrangian including appropriate resonances. Previously, models of this type were applied to pi pi and pi K scattering and were seen to require the existence of light scalar sigma(560) and kappa(900) mesons and to be consistent with the f0(980). The present calculation extends this to include the a0(980), thereby completing a possible nonet of light scalars, all ``seen'' in the same manner. We note that, at the initial level, the pi eta channel is considerably cleaner than the pi pi and pi …

Respiration Characteristics Differ Among Cheatgrass (Bromus Tectorum L.) Populations, Daniel J. B. Hemming, Susan E. Meyer, Bruce N. Smith, Lee D. Hansen

Great Basin Naturalist

Cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.) is a dominant weed that has increased the frequency of wildfire in the Great Basin since its introduction about 100 yr ago. This study examines characteristics of respiratory metabolism in several different populations. Seeds from 6 populations were germinated and metabolic heat rates (q) and dark respiration rates (R_CO2) of all seedlings were measured calorimetrically at 15° and 25°C or (for 3 populations) at 5° intervals from 5° to 35°C. Growth rates, substrate carbon conversion efficiencies, and Arrhenius temperature coefficients were calculated from the data. Results show that cheatgrass metabolism is most efficient …

Translated Opinions

Facts: The petitioners, Members of Knesset, reserve military officers, and student organizations, challenged a practice in which the Minister of Defense routinely grants deferrals of and exemptions from required military service to ultra-Orthodox Jewish Yeshiva students who engage in full-time religious study. They claimed the exemptions, granted to an ever-growing percentage of enlistment candidates (8% in the year 1997), violate the principle of equality, exceed the zone of reasonableness, and are disproportionate. They further claimed that the Minister of Defense lacks the authority to regulate the matter and that it must be done so through legislation.

Held: The Knesset, not …
