Wooster Magazine: Fall 2000, Lisa Watts Oct 2001

Wooster Magazine: Fall 2000, Lisa Watts

Wooster Magazine: 1991-2000

This edition of the Wooster Magazine was published in the Fall of 2000. This edition begins with a letter from the President's, R. Stanton Hales, desk regarding an $8 million gift from The Burton D. Morgan Foundation. This was the largest single gift in the history of the college at that time. The gift was used to create Burton D. Morgan Hall. "The Oak Grove", stories from around campus and beyond, includes stories about faculty beginning to transition to a new curriculum, the College switching to more "sophisticated" phones, students embracing Kittredge's no-fry zone, and staff members relocating campus wildlife. …

Low Proof Load Prediction Of Ultimate Strengths Of Fiberglass/Epoxy I-Beams Using Acoustic Emission, Edward C. Fatzinger Jr. Oct 2001

Low Proof Load Prediction Of Ultimate Strengths Of Fiberglass/Epoxy I-Beams Using Acoustic Emission, Edward C. Fatzinger Jr.

Master's Theses - Daytona Beach

Acoustic emission (AE) nondestructive testing was used to monitor fiberglass/epoxy I-beams. The experiment consisted of loading the I-beams in cantilever fashion with a hydraulic ram. While testing, AE waveforms were collected from the onset of loading to failure. After acquisition, the AE data from each test were filtered to include only data collected up to 50% of the theoretical ultimate load for further analysis.

A Kohonen self-organizing map was utilized to separate each individual data point (hit) into failure mechanism clusters. Then a multiple linear regression analysis was performed using the percentage of hits associated with each failure mechanism along …

Energetics And Cooperativity In Three-Center Hydrogen Bonding Interactions. I. Diacetamide-X Dimers .X=Hcn, Ch3Oh., Ruben D. Parra, Makoto Furukawa, Bing Gong, Xiao Cheng Zeng Oct 2001

Energetics And Cooperativity In Three-Center Hydrogen Bonding Interactions. I. Diacetamide-X Dimers .X=Hcn, Ch3Oh., Ruben D. Parra, Makoto Furukawa, Bing Gong, Xiao Cheng Zeng

Xiao Cheng Zeng Publications

High level ab initio calculations are carried out on diacetamide–X (DA–X) dimers, X=HCN, CH3OH. The dimers are used as model systems to investigate the energetics and cooperative phenomomena in intermolecular three-center hydrogen-bond (H-bond) interactions relative to two-center H-bond interactions. The trans–trans conformer of diacetamide is chosen as a suitable model for intermolecular three-center H bonding where one H atom is interacting with two acceptor atoms. The proton–acceptor atoms are rigidly held in the same molecule. For both model systems, it is found that the calculated interaction energy per H bond is appreciably smaller in the three-center than in …

Of Theory And Practice, Tamar Frankel Oct 2001

Of Theory And Practice, Tamar Frankel

Chicago-Kent Law Review

Much has been written about theory and practice in the law, and the tension between practitioners and theorists. Judges do not cite theoretical articles often; they rarely "apply" theories to particular cases. These arguments are not revisited. Instead the Article explores the working and interaction of theory and practice, practitioners and theorists. This Article starts with a story about solving a legal issue using our intellectual tools—theory, practice, and their progenies: experience and "gut." Next the Article elaborates on the nature of theory, practice, experience and gut. The third part of the Article discusses theories that are helpful to practitioners …


The Written Contract As Safe Harbor For Dishonest Conduct, Lawrence M. Solan Oct 2001

The Written Contract As Safe Harbor For Dishonest Conduct, Lawrence M. Solan

Chicago-Kent Law Review

The parol evidence rule excludes extrinsic evidence of prior or contemporaneous understandings of an agreement when the parties have signed a document that purports to encompass their entire understanding. In theory, this rule is designed to add certainty to business transactions and to inhibit the introduction of unreliable evidence into the litigation system. But in practice, if we eliminate the introduction of precontractual representations and understandings from the dispute resolution process, we create a safe harbor for unethical business practices in the early stages of contract formation. Using insights from linguistics and psychology, the Article argues that this problem is …

Sensor-Assisted Video Mosaicing For Seafloor Mapping, Yuri Rzhanov, Randy G. Cutter Jr., Lloyd C. Huff Oct 2001

Sensor-Assisted Video Mosaicing For Seafloor Mapping, Yuri Rzhanov, Randy G. Cutter Jr., Lloyd C. Huff

Center for Coastal and Ocean Mapping

This paper discusses a proposed processing technique for combining video imagery with auxiliary sensor information. The latter greatly simplifies image processing by reducing complexity of the transformation model. The mosaics produced by this technique are adequate for many applications, in particular habitat mapping. The algorithm is demonstrated through simulations and hardware configuration is described.

Selected Economic Implications And Policy Aspects Of Agricultural Biotechnology, Evert Van Der Sluis, Matthew Diersen, Thomas Dobbs Oct 2001

Selected Economic Implications And Policy Aspects Of Agricultural Biotechnology, Evert Van Der Sluis, Matthew Diersen, Thomas Dobbs

Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)

The paper provides an overview of the types of economic costs, benefits, and risks involved with agricultural biotechnology at the farm level, at the market level, and for the farm and food system as a whole. Both advantages and disadvantages of agricultural biotechnology are discussed. Among the drivers of the US domestic and international consumer demand for transgenic crop products discussed in the paper are environmental and food safety concerns. A comparison is made between a 'science-based' regulatory framework and a policy based on the precautionary principle. The authors argue that open dialogue is needed for achieving improved public understanding …

Growth, Condition, And Mortality Of Black Crappie, Bluegill, And Yellow Perch In Nebraska Sand Hills Lakes, Craig P. Paukert, David W. Willis, Andrew L. Glidden Oct 2001

Growth, Condition, And Mortality Of Black Crappie, Bluegill, And Yellow Perch In Nebraska Sand Hills Lakes, Craig P. Paukert, David W. Willis, Andrew L. Glidden

Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences (through 2013)

The growth, condition, and mortality of black crappie, bluegill, and yellow perch were measured in 30 Nebraska Sand Hills lakes (1998, 1999) to determine the value of these parameters in these fish populations compared to other Great Plains populations. Growth was variable for all three fish species, but similar to or higher than populations in other midwestern states. Bluegill condition, as measured by mean relative weight, ranged from 115 to 123, indicating these populations were in very good condition. Mean relative weight by length for black crappie ranged from 94 to 114, but only 83 to 95 for yellow perch. …


Review Of American Indian Grandmothers: Traditions And Transitions Edited By Marjorie M. Schweitzer, Paula Bennett Oct 2001

Review Of American Indian Grandmothers: Traditions And Transitions Edited By Marjorie M. Schweitzer, Paula Bennett

Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences (through 2013)

This well-researched and deeply warm series of essays is intended to acquaint readers with twentieth-century Indian grandmothers as familial bridges between past cultural embeddedness and an increasingly dismembered culture stretched from its roots in myth and practice. The essays range from sociological monographs replete with statistics to intimate first-hand interpretive accounts from the grandmothers themselves. The historical, geographic, and psychological breadth of the vignettes assures their appeal to a wide range of scholars and ethno-elderphiles.

Schweitzer emphasizes that even when biology is the triggering event for becoming a grandmother, the context of Indian grandmotherhood is culturally construed. Kinship patterns determine …

The twenty-one sites range from arctic tundra to hot desert and from natural tropical rainforest to urban and suburban areas.


Review Of The Last Prairie: A Sandhills Journal By Stephen R. Jones, Ron Block Oct 2001

Review Of The Last Prairie: A Sandhills Journal By Stephen R. Jones, Ron Block

Great Plains Quarterly (through 2013)

In The Last Prairie: A Sandhills Joumal, naturalist Stephen R. Jones provides an informed and passionate portrait of the Sandhills of western Nebraska, "the last remaining relic of the boundless grasslands that once extended from the Missouri River to the Rocky Mountains." These grass-fixed sand dunes have not only provided Jones with his subject but also a style, since these twenty essays are as graceful, diverse, and startling in their transitions as the Sandhills themselves.

A representative essay may begin in first person, emphasizing the sensual complexity of directly experiencing the Sandhills. But then by subtle shifts and turns, …

Seeing The World Anew: Creative Arts In The Honors Curriculum, Sara Sanders Oct 2001

Seeing The World Anew: Creative Arts In The Honors Curriculum, Sara Sanders

Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive

In the sixteen-year history of the Honors Program at Coastal Carolina University, some three hundred students have completed the program. We have graduated only two fine arts majors, and we currently have a student who is double majoring in art and marine science. Most of our students are science majors. In order to be invited into the honors program, students have to be excellent in verbal and analytical skills, but research on multiple intelligences (Gardner, Multiple) has shown us that those are only two of many ways to make sense of the world. Honors students are usually skilled learners in …


Jesters Freed From Their Jack-In-The-Boxes: Or Springing Creativity Loose From Traditionally Entrenched Honors Students, Leslie Donovan Oct 2001

Jesters Freed From Their Jack-In-The-Boxes: Or Springing Creativity Loose From Traditionally Entrenched Honors Students, Leslie Donovan

Journal of the National Collegiate Honors Council Online Archive

Many people in our society manage adequately all their lives without ever flexing a creative muscle. Yet, most of us involved in Honors education expect and want more for our students. We know that those who resist using creativity in their lives and work will be unlikely to push beyond the traditional boundaries of scholastic analysis. Further, we reason that, by operating beyond such boundaries, our students may someday find a cure for cancer, recognize signs marking sentient life on other planets, or move people to leave hatred of differences behind. We realize that such dreams are possible only if …

Review Of Alien Species In North America And Hawaii: Impacts On Natural Ecosystems By George W. Cox, Roger Sheley Oct 2001

Review Of Alien Species In North America And Hawaii: Impacts On Natural Ecosystems By George W. Cox, Roger Sheley

Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences (through 2013)

This enthusiastic conservationist chronicles the arrival and expansion of many keystone non-indigenous species into North America and Hawaii. A wealth of knowledge is pulled together to provide an overview of the impacts of invasive plants and animals on regional ecosystems. Alien Species should be required reading for natural resource managers.

The author provides regional, biotic, theoretical, and policy perspectives on invasive species and discusses key invasive plants and animals and their known impacts within ten regions. This is the most extensive and documented part of the volume and provides powerful testimony regarding the magnitude of the problem.
