Modeling Wildlife Damage To Crops In Northern Indiana, Mónica I. Retamosa, Lee A. Humberg, James C. Beasley, Olin E. Rhodes Jr. Jan 2008

Modeling Wildlife Damage To Crops In Northern Indiana, Mónica I. Retamosa, Lee A. Humberg, James C. Beasley, Olin E. Rhodes Jr.

Human–Wildlife Interactions

Comprehensive information on crop damage by wildlife species is critical if effective strategies for controlling wildlife damage are to be formulated. Discriminating how landscape composition and configuration attributes influence crop damage is important for implementing landscape management techniques to resolve human–wildlife conflicts. We analyzed crop damage data from 100 corn fields and 60 soybean fields located in the Upper Wabash River Basin of northern Indiana during 2003 and 2004. We used negative binomial regression to model the rate of damage to corn and soybean crops in response to local and landscape variables. Rate of crop damage was best predicted by …


Evaluation Of An Oral Vaccination Program To Control Raccoon Rabies In A Suburbanized Landscape, Jason R. Boulanger, Laura L. Bigler, Paul D. Curtis, Donald H. Lein, Arthur J. Lembo Jr. Jan 2008

Evaluation Of An Oral Vaccination Program To Control Raccoon Rabies In A Suburbanized Landscape, Jason R. Boulanger, Laura L. Bigler, Paul D. Curtis, Donald H. Lein, Arthur J. Lembo Jr.

Human–Wildlife Interactions

We evaluated the efficacy of an oral rabies vaccination (ORV) program conducted in Erie County, New York, from July through September, 2002–2005. Ingress of the raccoon (Procyon lotor) rabies variant first occurred along the southern border of Erie County, New York, during 1992 and began to spread northward at a velocity of 31 km/year. Fixed-wing aircraft dropped ORV baits in rural landscapes; helicopters, hand baiting, and bait stations distributed baits in suburban landscapes (x̄ bait densities ranged 59–118 baits/km2). Our study objectives were to quantify rabies case densities, evaluate efficacy of intervention efforts, and determine biological, …


Development Ethics: Ethical Questioning And Its Place In International Development, Miriam Elizabeth Abadie Jan 2008

Development Ethics: Ethical Questioning And Its Place In International Development, Miriam Elizabeth Abadie

Honors Theses

Development Ethics is a field of applied ethics that deals with the ethical questions involved in international development work. This study highlights one basic question that a development ethicist might tackle: Do we, a wealthy nation, have an obligation to help poor nations? To respond to this question, I consider and respond to Gairett Hardin’s Lifeboat Ethics analogy to argue that we do have this obligation. To further demonstrate that we do have an obligation to the poor, I highlight three different moral theories: Utilitarianism, Kantian Ethics, and Care Ethics. It is important to understand that Development Ethics, while based …


Black, White, Brown, Green, And Fordice: The Flavor Of Higher Education In Louisiana And Mississippi, Alfreda A. Sellers Diamond Jan 2008

Black, White, Brown, Green, And Fordice: The Flavor Of Higher Education In Louisiana And Mississippi, Alfreda A. Sellers Diamond

UC Law Journal of Race and Economic Justice

Like many other states, Mississippi and Louisiana have struggled, and continue to struggle with the difficult problem of racial segregation in higher education. Through decades of litigation and negotiation, their higher education systems developed plans to equalize and unite the historically black and historically white institutions. The author's examination of Mississippi and Louisiana's strategies reveals that the states used several different approaches to achieve desegregation, but nevertheless their colleges and universities, like many aspects of society, remain largely racially distinct. The author concludes that many elements essential to effective desegregation were missing from the Mississippi and Louisiana plans. Hopefully, the …


Taking It To The Bank: Actualizing Health Care Equality For San Francisco's Transgender City And County Employees, J. Denise Diskin Jan 2008

Taking It To The Bank: Actualizing Health Care Equality For San Francisco's Transgender City And County Employees, J. Denise Diskin

UC Law Journal of Race and Economic Justice

This note tracks the decision of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors and the San Francisco Health Service System Board (HSSB) to provide transition related health care coverage to its transgender city and county employees. The author evaluates the intersection of gender identity, systemic racism, classism, and homophobia within the struggle of marginalized communities to overcome health inequities and discrimination that also often lead to chronic underemployment, lower paying jobs and insufficient medical benefits. The note uncovers the realities of access to legal rights and remedies in connection to medical care for the transgender community, whose vastly diverse needs and …


No Child Left Behind Act, Race, And Parents Involved, Joseph O. Oluwole, Preston C. Green Iii Jan 2008

No Child Left Behind Act, Race, And Parents Involved, Joseph O. Oluwole, Preston C. Green Iii

UC Law Journal of Race and Economic Justice

Professors Oluwole and Green consider how raceconscious implementation of the No Child Left Behind Act could affect the racial achievement gap in the United States. Their article addresses challenges states and school districts are confronted with in attempting to overcome racial achievement gaps while facing decreasing budgets and mandatory procedures. They evaluate the feasibility of race-conscious school funding in the context of the Act's purposes and past challenges to school financing schemes. Professors Oluwole and Green emphasize the necessity of raceconscious school funding, both as a social justice matter and a practical matter for the future of American education.
