Study Of Subrogation Mostly In Letter Of Credit And Other Abstract Obligation Transactions, A, John F. Dolan

Missouri Law Review

While efficiency analysis would leave the loss on the erring bank, the revised version of Article 5 of the Uniform Commercial Code ("Revised Article 5") includes a provision granting subrogation to letter of credit issuers as if they were sureties.2 Some commentators view this statutory provision as a surefire source of subrogation for the banks. This Article mounts an argument to the contrary. Because subrogation is an equitable remedy resting on an unjust enrichment standard,3 this Article contends that bank issuers must make an unjust enrichment case before they can avail themselves of the subrogation remedy, even under Revised Article …

Assessing The Best Interests Of The Child: Missouri Declares That A Homosexual Parent Is Not Ipso Facto Unfit For Custody, Heidi C. Doerhoff

Missouri Law Review

In formal child custody disputes, the voices of those at the center of the controversy, the children, are rarely heard.Their parents, who otherwise are presumed to act in their best interests, battle one another in legal proceedings that reward the parent who more persuasively portrays the deficiencies of the other's parenting skills. Because the children, especially the very young, have no adequate basis for making judgments about their long-term well-being, the state acts asparenspatriae while their parents are adversaries.Through its laws and decision makers, the state attempts to ensure that the final custody arrangement is guided by the best interests …

Missouri's Mystifying Doctrine Of Sovereign Immunity: The Imposition Of Duty Under The Dangerous Condition Exception, Stacy L. Nagel

Missouri Law Review

In Missouri, the doctrine of sovereign immunity has been plagued with confusion. Much of this confusion has resulted from wrangling between the Missouri Supreme Court and the legislature. Statutes offering little guidance have been developed, and hard to reconcile cases have been produced. Perhaps nowhere is this confusion more evident than in the area of tort liability under the "dangerous condition" exception to sovereign immunity. Martin v. Missouri Highway & Transportation Department is a prime example of the bewilderment bred by Missouri's statute of sovereign immunity and particularly the "dangerous condition" exception. The Martin court discusses the conditions under which …

Information Research Strategies (Imt 220) And Fluency With Information Technology (Cse 100): Two Approaches To Teaching Use Of Technology, Anne E. Zald, Nana Lowell, Zoe Clelland

Library Faculty Research

The University of Washington has recently initiated two approaches to teaching technology and information resources via the School of Library and Information Science (SLIS) and Computer Science and Engineering (CSE). The courses developed by the respective departments, IMT 200 2 and CSE 100, offered specialized instruction, regarding computer use and the availability of information resources. These courses were offered during Winter 1999 and Spring 2000 quarters, allowing for the evaluation of their success over time, and comparison to courses that were unaccompanied by this type of information resource instruction. Questionnaires were administered to students in IMT 220 and CSE 100 …

This thesis project answers the major questions of what role does the Mackenzie Heritage Printery Museum in Queenston, Ontario Canada fit into the scheme of scholarly pursuits and the awareness of raising people's consciousness with regard …

Children's Knowledge, Teachers' Knowledge: Implications For Early Childhood Teacher Education, Joy Cullen

Australian Journal of Teacher Education

A recent explosion of research on young children's knowledge raises issues for early childhood educators with regard to the extent to which early childhood programs incorporate the knowledge base that children bring to their learning. Recent psychological work on children's domain knowledge reveals early competencies that contribute to subsequent conceptual learning. Studies of learning in early childhood settings suggest further that sociocultural mechanisms (or constraints) of learning are important factors in children's knowledge construction in the early years. These studies also indicate the interface of content and processes in young children's knowledge construction. It is argued that the professional knowledge …
