Dipl 2105 Aa/Ab Sustaining Global Ecology, R. A. Hamilton Phd

Diplomacy Syllabi

This course examines the knowledge base used to support human stewardship of the Earth's life support systems, including water resources, atmosphere, energy and food resources, biogeochemical process and habitat conservation. Given the controversial nature of the above topics, this course will begin with an exploration of the question: what is the relationship that humans have (and ought to have) with nature? This leading discussion will lay the foundation for the rest of course as we consider the various arguments and positions pertaining to global ecology. Reflecting the emphasis of the School of Diplomacy and International Relations, we will also spend …

The Women's Christian Temperance Union In The Pacific Northwest: The Battle For Cultural Control, Dale E. Soden

History Faculty Scholarship

At 3:00 p.m. on March I, 1915, Governor Moses Alexander signed House Bill 142, which would make Idaho a dry state as of Ianuary I, 1916. He used four pens, then gave one to his granddaughter and the rest to the Reverend Will Herwig, president of the Anti-Saloon League, and Nettie Chipp and Mollie Vance, representatives of the North Idaho and South Idaho Woman's Christian Temperance Unions. To commemorate the moment, a news service took moving pictures for its newsreel, and the WCTU ladies present sang temperance lyrics to the tune of "It's a Long Way to Tipperary."

Exact Multiplicity For Periodic Solutions Of Duffing Type, Hongbin Chen, Yi Li, Xiaojie Hou

Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications

In this paper, we study the following Duffing-type equation:

x″+cx′+g(t,x)=h(t),

where g(t,x) is a 2π-periodic continuous function in t and concave–convex in x, and h(t) is a small continuous 2π-periodic function. The exact multiplicity and stability of periodic solutions are obtained.

On Good Authority: Naco Participation At The University Of Southern Mississippi, Kathleen L. Wells

The Southeastern Librarian

The prospect of contributing to an authority file used by libraries throughout the United States and beyond may be somewhat daunting in itself. However, participation in the Name Authority Cooperative Program (NACO) may be within your library’s reach. Since joining the program in November 2001, catalogers at the University of Southern Mississippi (USM) Libraries have found that many rewards and few drawbacks come with NACO membership.

Distance Learners: Not Necessarily Distant, Rachel Viggiano

The Southeastern Librarian

The following paper was presented at the 2002 SELA/South Carolina Library Association Joint Conference in Charleston, South Carolina, as part of the “New Voices” program, sponsored by the University and College Libraries Section (UCLS) of SELA. The Southeastern Librarian is pleased to reprint the paper in its entirety.

The purpose of this paper is to examine many of the issues involved in providing library services to distance learners, and to discuss the growing overlap of services for traditional on-campus students and distance learners. Is the distinction between the two groups enough to merit a separation of services, or should libraries …

The Power Of Interfacing Departments In Shaping B2b Customer Satisfaction, Srinivas Durvasula, Steven Lysonski, Subhash C. Mehta

Marketing Faculty Research and Publications

Extant research identifies service quality and service encounter perceptions as the key determinants of satisfaction. However, no study in a business-to-business environment has examined the simultaneous effect of these two determinants on overall satisfaction. Hence, we do not know which of these two determinants has a stronger impact on service satisfaction. We investigated this issue by collecting data from shipping managers of several firms in Singapore that used the services of ocean freight shipping companies. Results of path analysis indicate that perceptions of service encounters have a relatively stronger impact compared to service quality. Implications of these results are discussed.

The Local Nature Of Digital Reference, Teresa U. Berry, Margaret M. Casado, Lana Dixon

The Southeastern Librarian

In response to the extensive availability of digital library resources and the rising number of remote users, many libraries now offer digital reference services through e-mail and chat. The growing use of interactive chat software with its real time interactive capability has prompted librarians to consider collaborative ways in which to offer this service. A concern expressed frequently in informal discussions of such collaborations is how difficult it would be for the staff at one library to answer questions for another, considering that many questions tend to be “local”. Intrigued by the perception of “local,” librarians at the University of …

Studying "Working Fathers": Comparing Fathers' And Mothers' Work-Family Conflict, Fit, And Adaptive Strategies In A Global High-Tech Company, E. Jeffrey Hill, Alan J. Hawkins, Vjollca Märtinson, Maria Ferris

Faculty Publications

Working fathers are underrepresented-conceptually and empirically-in work-family research. Using a global corporate sample of working fathers from 48 countries (N = 7,692), this study compares working fathers to working mothers on key work-family variables as suggested by Voydanoff's (2002) application of ecological systems theory. It examines the direction and the path of the predictors of work-family fit and whether a scarcity or expansion model better explains these results. Finally, it considers what work-family adaptive strategies may affect those relationships. Although fathers consistently reported less family-to-work conflict than mothers, they reported equal amounts of work-to-family conflict. That is, fathers struggled as …

Creating A Geographical Information System For Freshwater Crabs And Fishes In Greece, Eugene G. Maurakis, Walter R.T. Witschey, Panos S. Economidis, Dimitra Bobori

Virginia Journal of Science

A geographical information system (GIS) for freshwater crabs and fishes in Greece was created in response to the European Environmental Agency's (EEA) biodiversity initiative for European Union countries. A total of 1931 collections, made with seines, dipnets, and backpack electroshockers in 32 drainages of Greece, yielded 126 species of fishes and crabs in 2,359 data records including species, latitude, longitude, drainage, prefecture, and locality, 731 also include stream order, elevation, gradient, stream width and depth, pH, temperature, and distance to river mouth. Our GIS indicates current distributions of species, species rich and poor areas, anomalous species distributions, areas warranting further …
