Educational Leadership and Policy Faculty Publications and Presentations

This book was prepared over a period of two years. Most of us have worked together previously as members of an advisory committee for “College Age Youth,” a W.K. Kellogg Foundation initiative to develop leadership abilities in college undergraduates at 31 institutions. That program demostrated that colleges and universities can provide highly effective environments for the development of future leaders (Zimmerman-Oster & Burkhardt, 1999). The idea of writing a book that could address the application of transformative leadership to higher education was first conceived in November 1997. However, work on the book did not begin until the Spring of 1998. …


Employment Discrimination In Higher Education, Oren R. Griffin, Thomas P. Hustoles Jan 2000

Employment Discrimination In Higher Education, Oren R. Griffin, Thomas P. Hustoles

Articles, Chapters in Books and Other Contributions to Scholarly Works

During 1999, the most significant development in employment discrimination law involving colleges and universities, by a large margin, was a series of cases affirming that Eleventh Amendment immunity from private money damage claims brought pursuant to various federal employment discrimination statutes applied to state colleges and universities. This development eventually culminated in the Supreme Court's year 2000 decision in Kimel v. Florida Board of Regents.' Numerous other interesting decisions were rendered that, although not creating any bold new law, either affirmed trends in past cases, or illustrated important practical implications for generally predicting judicial outcomes given certain fact patterns. After …

An Analysis Of Pteropus Livingstonii Roost Habitat: Indicators For Forest Conservation On Anjouan And Moheli, Elise F. Granek Jan 2000

An Analysis Of Pteropus Livingstonii Roost Habitat: Indicators For Forest Conservation On Anjouan And Moheli, Elise F. Granek

Environmental Science and Management Faculty Publications and Presentations

Livingstone's fruit bat (Pteropus livingstonii) is an endangered and endemic species found only on the islands of Anjouan and Mohéli, Comoros. A study was conducted into the habitats selected by P. livingstonii, as part of a project to assess areas for nature reserves which will be able to protect and conserve forest resources in the islands; the bat is postulated to be a useful indicator of undisturbed forest. Known roost sites (n=9) before the survey were between 500 and 1100 m altitude, on steeply sloping land, with some indigenous forest cover present. Thirteen new potential roost sites were identified, of …

Land Use And Growth Impacts From Highway Capacity Increases, Thomas W. Sanchez Jan 2000

Land Use And Growth Impacts From Highway Capacity Increases, Thomas W. Sanchez

Center for Urban Studies Publications and Reports

This analysis examined the historical relationship between land use changes and the location of capacity increasing highway projects in the State of Oregon from 1970 to 1990. Aerial photography for 18 cities was used to delineate the extent of urban development in each time period. A geographic information system (GIS) was used to assemble the data. Using this data, a logit regression model tested the significance of geographic variables such as proximity to highway projects, land use zoning classification, city size, and other spatial characteristics. The analytical methods used in this study incorporated a set of commonly used techniques to …


Design And Evaluation Of A Specialized Computer Architecture For Manipulating Binary Decision Diagrams, Robert K. Hatt Jan 2000

Design And Evaluation Of A Specialized Computer Architecture For Manipulating Binary Decision Diagrams, Robert K. Hatt

Dissertations and Theses

Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs) are an extremely important data structure used in many logic design, synthesis and verification applications. Symbolic problem representations make BDDs a feasible data structure for use on many problems that have discrete representations. Efficient implementations of BOD algorithms on general purpose computers has made manipulating large binary decision diagrams possible. Much research has gone into making BOD algorithms more efficient on general purpose computers. Despite amazing increases in performance and capacity of such computers over the last decade, they may not be the best way to solve large, specialized problems. A computer architecture designed specifically to …

The Freedom Of Access To Clinic Entrances Act And The Nuremberg Files Web Site: Is The Site Properly Prohibited Or Protected By Speech, Melanie C. Hagan Jan 2000

The Freedom Of Access To Clinic Entrances Act And The Nuremberg Files Web Site: Is The Site Properly Prohibited Or Protected By Speech, Melanie C. Hagan

UC Law Journal

In 1999, a federal jury, in the case of Planned Parenthood v. American Coalition of Life Activists, returned a verdict in plaintiff's favor to the tune of $100 million. At issue was whether the Web site known as The Nuremberg Files, as well as printed "wanted style" posters dubbed The Deadly Dozen, both listing personal information regarding abortion physicians, were "threats" under The Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act of 1994 (FACE).

FACE imposes liability on any person who intimidates or attempts to intimidate by force or threat of force any person because that person provides reproductive health services. …


Faculty Diversity As A Clinical Legal Education Imperative, Jon C. Dubin Jan 2000

Faculty Diversity As A Clinical Legal Education Imperative, Jon C. Dubin

UC Law Journal

Clinical legal education has rapidly evolved from a novelty or boutique offering in law school curricula to a relatively settled and accepted component of the academy. Much has been written about the composition of law and university faculties, the value of faculty diversity in university and traditional law school educational settings, and proposals for reform. However, scant attention has been paid to the composition of the increasingly significant cadre of law professors engaging in clinical teaching and scholarship and the educational and social consequences of the demographic distribution of clinical faculty positions. In this article, Professor Dubin examines and analyzes …


Black Gaius: A Quest For The Multicultural Origins Of The "Western Legal Tradition", P. G. Monateri Jan 2000

Black Gaius: A Quest For The Multicultural Origins Of The "Western Legal Tradition", P. G. Monateri

UC Law Journal

This article is divided into two parts. The first is devoted to reconstructing the historical self-consciousness of the Western Legal Tradition, showing the emergence of a model based on the more or less explicit assumptions of Roman, and subsequently Western, legal originalism and supremacy. In the second part, different areas are investigated--contract, theories of government, dispute settlements, and legal culture-to challenge the same existence of a Roman law at the root of modem Western laws. In this way the package of received ideas in legal scholarship about the history and nature of the Western legal culture is revealed to be …
