Is The System Flawed? Legal Ramifications Of The Bowl Championship Series And Conference Alignment, Josh Helton, Mike Slive Commissioner, Gary Roberts, Andrew Sorenson

Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law

Vice Chancellor Williams:

Let me start -this is really a discussion, or a panel that deals with the BCS and conference alignment. So why don't we just jump right in it, and I think the first question that I would like to ask is --we'll throw it up, really I think I'd like to go to both Mike and Gary on this --why are we seeing all the movement around of the schools from conference to conference? What is this all about?

Gary Roberts:

That's 95% of it. It is schools trying to reposition themselves better in their industry, which …

An Examination Of Chen And Starosta’S Model Of Intercultural Sensitivity In Germany And United States, Wolfgang Fritz, Andrea Graf, Joachim Hentze, Antje Möllenberg, Guo-Ming Chen Jan 2005

An Examination Of Chen And Starosta’S Model Of Intercultural Sensitivity In Germany And United States, Wolfgang Fritz, Andrea Graf, Joachim Hentze, Antje Möllenberg, Guo-Ming Chen

Communication Studies Faculty Publications

This study examines, via a replication study, Chen and Starosta’s Model of Intercultural Sensitivity which is developed in the USA context. Although an earlier attempt to reproduce the model in Germany has been successful, the present replication study does not reach the same result based on German and US-American sample. Consequently, the intercultural validity of Chen and Starosta’s Model becomes doubtful for the time being, and which demands more close examinations in future research.

The Effects Of School Location On Math And Science Achievement Trends: A Primer On Growth Modeling In Education Policy Research, Edward B. Reeves Jan 2005

The Effects Of School Location On Math And Science Achievement Trends: A Primer On Growth Modeling In Education Policy Research, Edward B. Reeves

Faculty Research at Morehead State University

The effect of school location on math and science learning is currently an important policy issue in the United States and in other countries, such as Australia. The present paper uses a 5-year series of math and science achievement data from the state of Kentucky to determine the effects of school location on learning in these subject areas. Adopting an organizational assessment approach, I show how growth models may be used to estimate achievement trends. I also demonstrate methods for discovering two important sources of invalidity in growth models: regression artifacts and spuriousness. Failure to account for these sources of …

Pulpits And Platforms: The Role Of The Church In Determining Protest Among Black Americans, Scott T. Fitzgerald, Ryan Spohn Jan 2005

Pulpits And Platforms: The Role Of The Church In Determining Protest Among Black Americans, Scott T. Fitzgerald, Ryan Spohn

Center on Children, Families, and the Law: Faculty Publications

This article further specifies the relationship between church-based resources, group identification and political activism among black Americans. Previous research indicates that political communication within churches and activism within the church serve to motivate political participation. Our research suggests that, net of relevant controls, activism within the church does not significantly increase protest politics. A key determinant of protest participation is attending a church that exhibits a politicized church culture, and this effect is contingent upon educational attainment and membership in secular organizations. Hence, the church serves as a crucial context for the dissemination of political messages and exposure to opportunities …

Parental Influence On Children's Ethnic Identity Among Chinese Americans, Yunus Sham'ah Md. Jan 2005

Parental Influence On Children's Ethnic Identity Among Chinese Americans, Yunus Sham'ah Md.

All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This study examined the influence of Chinese American parents on their children's ethnic identity. Two research questions were designed to examine these relationships: Does the personal construct of Chinese American parents influence their children's ethnic identity and does the length of stay in the United States of Chinese American parents influence children's ethnic identity? Parental influence was identified as parents' ethnic behaviors, parents' ethnic values, parents' personal construct, and their length of stay in the United States. The 93 families who participated in this study were purposely selected from three Chinese language schools from a Midwestern city of the United …

Consent, Informal Organization, And Job Rewards: A Mixed Methods Analysis, Marty Laubach Jan 2005

Consent, Informal Organization, And Job Rewards: A Mixed Methods Analysis, Marty Laubach

Sociology and Anthropology Faculty Research

This study uses a mixed methods approach to workplace dynamics. Ethnographic observations show that the consent deal underlies an informal stratification that divides the workplace into an “informal periphery,” a “conventional core,” and an “administrative clan.” The “consent deal” is defined as an exchange of autonomy, voice, and schedule flexibility for intensified commitment, and is modeled as a single factor underlying these elements. When constructed as an additive scale, consent allows informal organization to be included in workplace models. Despite its derivation from subjective and informal processes, informal structure exerts an independent effect on objective job rewards such as wages.

Situational And Driver Characteristics Associated With Deervehicle Collisions In Southeastern Michigan, Alix Marcoux, Graham Hickling, Shawn Riley, Scott Winterstein Jan 2005

Situational And Driver Characteristics Associated With Deervehicle Collisions In Southeastern Michigan, Alix Marcoux, Graham Hickling, Shawn Riley, Scott Winterstein

Wildlife Damage Management Conference Proceedings

Deer-vehicle collisions (DVCs) create societal impacts throughout the range of white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginanus). In Michigan reported DVCs increased by nearly 60% between 1992-2003, with current estimates at more than 65,000 DVCs per year and a mean of $2,300 vehicle damage. To better understand where to direct education and information programs, we used Office of Highway Safety Planning (OHSP) data, 2001-2003, to profile driver characteristics and accident situations of DVCs in Washtenaw, Oakland, and Monroe Counties in Michigan. Each county varies in intensity of land use, human and deer densities, and available deer habitat. Deer density in Washtenaw, …

Access To Justice For A New Century: The Way Forward, Julia H. Bass, W. A. Bogart, Frederick H. Zemans

Books

This book is a timely addition to the literature on access to justice. The book's essays address all aspects of the topic, including differing views on the meaning of access to justice; ways to improve access to legal services; litigation and its role in achieving social justice; and the roles of lawyers, citizens, and legal insitutions.

Access to Justice for a New Century is based on papers given at an international symposium presented by the Law Society of Upper Canada, sponsored by the Law Foundation of Ontario.


A Social Networks Theory Of Privacy, Lior Strahilevitz Jan 2005

A Social Networks Theory Of Privacy, Lior Strahilevitz

Articles

What facts are public and what facts are private? It is the fundamental, first-principles question in privacy law, and a necessary element in the two most important privacy torts public disclosure of private facts and intrusion upon seclusion. This paper argues that insights from the literature on social networks and information dissemination can help provide courts with a coherent and consistent methodology for determining whether an individual has a reasonable expectation of privacy in a particular fact that he has shared with one or more persons. The social networks literature has generated theoretical and empirical insights about the probability that …
