Parents By The Numbers, Susan Frelich Appleton
Parents By The Numbers, Susan Frelich Appleton
Hofstra Law Review
This essay, an expanded version of the 2008 Siben Distinguished Professorship Lecture at Hofstra, explores the recent discourse - from case law, legal scholarship, and commentary - about whether children may have more than two legal parents. This discourse provides a lens for examining not only family law's current practices and trajectory but also family law's unfinished business, unspoken assumptions, and problematic inconsistencies.
Based on this examination, I largely ally myself with those who take a supportive approach to expanding parental numbers, but I include some significant points and elaborations missing from others' treatment of the topic. Specifically, I show …

Name-Calling, Elizabeth M. Glazer
Hofstra Law Review
Jennifer Hoffman identified as a woman. A classmate of mine in law school and a section-mate of mine during our first year, Jennifer wore no make-up, her short brown wavy hair parted to her right side, and an oxford shirt tucked into slacks each day. Jennifer always took her seat in the middle of the classroom in our large first year lectures. While members of my first year section, like many first year law students, shared the fear of being called on in class, many of us shared another fear, as well: the fear that Jennifer would be called on. …
Shared Sovereign Immunity As An Alternative To Federal Preemption: An Essay On The Attribution Of Responsibility For Harm To Others, Martin A. Kotler
Shared Sovereign Immunity As An Alternative To Federal Preemption: An Essay On The Attribution Of Responsibility For Harm To Others, Martin A. Kotler
Hofstra Law Review
Beginning with the Supreme Court's 1992 decision in Cipollone, courts have engaged in the practice of parsing the preemption language of federal legislation ostensibly to determine whether Congress intended to preclude the possibility of imposing liability on manufacturers under state products liability law. This article argues that congressional intent is largely a fiction and the cases based on it have been improperly decided. Nevertheless, the results reached in many of the cases are intuitively appealing. The reason for this is that the results commonly are based on the long-standing fairness principle that one should not be subjected to liability in …

Corporate Ethics, Agency, And The Theory Of The Firm, Robert J. Rhee
Corporate Ethics, Agency, And The Theory Of The Firm, Robert J. Rhee
UF Law Faculty Publications
This conference paper suggests that the problem of corporate ethics cannot be reduced to the autonomous person. Although the greatest influence on action and choice is one's moral constitution, it does not follow that the agent's behavior is the same within or without the firm. Ethics is a function of corporate form. The theory of agency cannot dismiss the firm as a fiction or metaphorical shorthand since that which does not exist should not be able to cause ethical breakdowns in corporate action. Thus, the theory of the firm, which emphasizes profit and wealth maximization, should incorporate a richer, more …
Colliding Worlds Of Dispute Resolution: Towards A Unified Field Theory Of Adr, David A. Hoffman
Colliding Worlds Of Dispute Resolution: Towards A Unified Field Theory Of Adr, David A. Hoffman
Journal of Dispute Resolution
In the essay that follows, I advocate for greater acceptance of the diversity of belief and practice in the field of dispute resolution and contend that the unifying elements of law and dispute resolution practice predominate over those elements that divide practitioners. After providing definitions of some of the primary forms of dispute resolution (in Part II), the article describes tensions in the Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) field (in Part III), quoting some of the harsh criticism that mediators, Collaborative practitioners, and other dispute resolvers have leveled at each other. Part III also expresses the concern that demonization and harsh …

In Search Of Female Space : Resistance And Creation In Tsitsi Dangarembga’S Nervous Conditions And She No Longer Weeps, Diana Mckenna
Theses, Dissertations and Culminating Projects
In this paper I explore how with Nervous Conditions (1988) and She No Longer Weeps (1987), Zimbabwean author Tsitsi Dangarembga creates alternative literary forms in her representation of architectural, bodily and narrative spaces and their relationship to female identities. These physical spaces the women characters inhabit, resist and in which they assert their voices must be cleared of patriarchal control in order for female-centered space to be produced. Moreover, the creation of a new speech paradigm, one that affirms the female voice, is crucial to the journey towards female autonomy. Inasmuch as Dangarembga explores the ways in which physical spaces …

Fema Trailers, Jae Rhim Lee
SWITCH
This article introduces an art and research project centered on a surplus FEMA travel trailer delivered to MIT which is used as a focal point of a course taught by Jae Rhim Lee. Lee uses the trailer to explore broader issues of environmental justice, government failure, and the health effects of disaster response. The project connects to another one of her projects, N=1=0=Infinity, a proposal for eco-friendly burial methods using mushrooms to return the body’s nutrients to the Earth.

Improving Knowledge Management Programs Using Marginal Utility In A Metric Space Generated By Conceptual Graphs, Jeffrey A. Schiffel
Improving Knowledge Management Programs Using Marginal Utility In A Metric Space Generated By Conceptual Graphs, Jeffrey A. Schiffel
CCAC Theses and Dissertations
Knowledge management has emerged as a field of endeavor that blends a systems approach with methods drawn from organizational management and learning. In contrast, knowledge representation, a branch of artificial intelligence, is grounded in formal methods. Research in the separate behavioral and the structural disciplines – knowledge management and knowledge engineering - has not traditionally cross-pollinated. This has prevented the development of many practical practices useful in organizations. Organization managers - line and senior - lack guidance in where to direct improvement efforts targeted at specific groups of company knowledge workers. Demonstrated here is Knowledge Improvement Measurement Space (KIMS), a …

Teachers' Perspectives On The Use Of Pedometers As Instructional Technology In Physical Education: A Cautionary Tale, Nate Mccaughtry, Kimberly L. Oliver, Suzanna Rocco Dillon, Jeffrey J. Martin
Teachers' Perspectives On The Use Of Pedometers As Instructional Technology In Physical Education: A Cautionary Tale, Nate Mccaughtry, Kimberly L. Oliver, Suzanna Rocco Dillon, Jeffrey J. Martin
Kinesiology, Health and Sport Studies
We used cognitive developmental theory to examine teachers' perspectives on the use of pedometers in physical education. Twenty-six elementary physical education teachers participating in long-term professional development were observed and interviewed twice over 6 months as they learned to incorporate pedometers into their teaching. Data were analyzed via constant comparison. The teachers reported four significant shifts in their thinking and values regarding pedometers. First, at the beginning, the teachers predicted they would encounter few implementation challenges that they would not be able to overcome, but, after prolonged use, they voiced several limitations to implementing pedometers in physical education. Second, they …
Captive Audience Meetings And Forced Listening: Lessons For Canada From The American Experience, Sara Slinn
Captive Audience Meetings And Forced Listening: Lessons For Canada From The American Experience, Sara Slinn
Articles & Book Chapters
Widespread adoption of mandatory representation votes and express protection of employer speech invite employer anti-union campaigns during union organizing, including employer-held captive audience meetings. Therefore, the problem of whether and how to restrict employers’ captive audience communications during union organizing is of renewed relevance in Canada. Captive meetings are a long-standing feature of American labour relations. This article considers how treatment of captive meetings evolved in the U.S., including the notion of employee choice, the “marketplace of ideas” view of expression dominating the American debate, and the central role of the contest between constitutional and statutory rights. It also considers …

This article draws on research into the science of happiness and asks a series of interrelated questions: Whether law schools can make law students happier? Whether making happier law students will translate into making them happier lawyers, and the accompanying question of whether making law students happier would create better lawyers? After covering the limitations of genetic determinants of happiness and happiness set-points, the article addresses those qualities that happiness research indicates are paramount in creating satisfaction: control, connections, creative challenge (or flow), and comparisons (preferably downward). Those qualities are then applied to legal education, while addressing the larger philosophical …

“Bridging Activities,” New Media Literacies, And Advanced Foreign Language Proficiency, Steven L. Thorne, Jonathon Reinhardt
“Bridging Activities,” New Media Literacies, And Advanced Foreign Language Proficiency, Steven L. Thorne, Jonathon Reinhardt
World Languages and Literatures Faculty Publications and Presentations
In this article we propose the pedagogical model bridging activities to address advanced foreign language proficiency in the context of existing and emerging internet communication and information tools and communities. The article begins by establishing the need for language and genre-focused activities at the advanced level that attend to the shifting social practices and emerging literacies associated with digital media. Grounded in principles of language awareness and the concept of multiliteracies, the bridging activities model centers on guided exploration and analysis of student selected or created digital vernacular texts originating in Web 2.0 and other technologies/practices such as instant messaging …

The problem our youth faces today is prevalent to our society, of how high drop out rates of minority and poor students further perpetuate the society's learning environment. We as a society should recognize this problem and do what we can do to help reconcile the situation to better educate our youth, to better educate our future. In an attempt to bring light on the problem I have started a project entitled the One4All Project. The purpose is to record and analyze data in an attempt to find solutions to resolving the problem of the lack of computers and services …

Camp Abilities is a camp for children ages nine to nineteen who have a desire to participate in sports activities. The campers or the athletes are visually impaired, blind or deafblind. The motto of the camp is "a loss of sight, never a loss of vision. This statement says it all, the attitude of the individuals who run the camp and the athletes themselves. The first camp was held at Brockport in 1996 with 27 campers participating. The camp has continued each year and averages around 50 campers per year. Camp Abilities has expanded and now has camps in Alaska, …
Validation Of A Measure Of Affective, Inferential, And Holistic Intuition, Lauren A. Carlson '08
Validation Of A Measure Of Affective, Inferential, And Holistic Intuition, Lauren A. Carlson '08
Honors Projects
A new theory of intuition synthesizes current theoretical models suggesting the existence of three types of intuition: affective, inferential, and holistic (Pretz & Totz, 2(07). However, current intuition measures inadequately assess these types. In response, a new intuition inventory, the Types of Intuition Scale (TIntS), was created containing subscales measuring affective, inferential, and holistic intuition. The current study attempted to establish the factor structure and validity of the TIntS. A factor analysis of TIntS data from 332 participants revealed four distinct factors of intuition: affective, inferential, abstract holistic, and incubation. Additionally, 227 of these participants completed other measures of intuition …
