Building-Level School Administrators' Perceptions Of Cyber Bullying , Among Students Under Their Supervision: Implications For Prevention And Intervention, James P. Colt
Education Doctoral
Research has indicated that both technology use and cyber bullying behavior by teenagers are increasing. Despite the importance of the role of building-level school administrators in establishing climate and addressing violence, the research on cyber bullying to date has not included the perceptions of building-level school administrators. The purpose of this study was to examine the perceptions of building-level school administrators about cyber bullying, the factors that influenced their response to cyber bullying, and the measures they and their schools are taking in regard to prevention and intervention of cyber bullying. This study employed a sequential explanatory mixedmethods strategy, which …

The study was conducted employing the quantitative and qualitative collection and analysis of data. The two questions that …

"I Just Decided To Do My Work:" An Investigation Into Factors Leading To Academic Improvement Among Multiple-Time Retained Seventh Grade Students, Deasure A. Matthew
"I Just Decided To Do My Work:" An Investigation Into Factors Leading To Academic Improvement Among Multiple-Time Retained Seventh Grade Students, Deasure A. Matthew
Education Doctoral
The problem that this study examined was the academic improvement of two- and three-time retained seventh grade students in low-performing middle school after modifying the school's leadership team and academic program. This study examined the effects of grade retention, school climate, motivation, and teacher-student relationship on academic performance. Review of research findings suggest retention yields no benefit (Jimerson (2001), Holmes & Matthews (1984), and Jackson (1975). Despite research suggesting little benefit from retention, it remains a common practice among educators (Holmes & Matthews, 1984; Jackson, 1975; Jimerson, 2001). A qualitative case study design using document analysis and structured interviews was …

The Morality Of Immigration Policy, Peter H. Schuck
The Morality Of Immigration Policy, Peter H. Schuck
San Diego Law Review
In Part I, I discuss five kinds of deontological arguments that a moralist might advance in debating the ideal nature of our immigration policy. In Part II, I take a more instrumentalist-consequentialist approach to immigration policy analysis. Before doing so, however, I briefly note some of the familiar methodological and cognitive limitations of applying this approach to complex public policy issues of this kind, limitations that remind us of the irreducible importance of normative considerations and judgments to such policy assessments. I then go on to identify the three main sets of empirical controversies that figure most prominently in immigration …
Equal Justice: Comment On Michael Blake's Immigration And Political Equality, Lori Watson
Equal Justice: Comment On Michael Blake's Immigration And Political Equality, Lori Watson
San Diego Law Review
What does justice require in regards to immigration policy? This question presses upon us-citizens of developed, Western democracies-with a profound degree of moral urgency. The number of people seeking to immigrate into the world's liberal democracies is only likely to increase in the foreseeable future; immigration due to the impact of global warming, armed conflict, and food shortages, just to name a few precipitous causes, is expected to increase dramatically in the next generation. Add to this the fact that those groups most disadvantaged by global inequality, women in particular, tend to bear the impact of such causes to a …

This Part will also explain how pension funds fit into an indirect framework and then offer an international solution to the task of …
Brain Drain, Fernando R. Teson
Brain Drain, Fernando R. Teson
San Diego Law Review
This Article argues against this conventional view. Most of the time there is nothing unfair about the brain drain, whether one considers it from the standpoint of the emigrant, the source country, or the host country. Critics of the brain drain make problematic empirical and philosophical claims. The empirical assumption of the critics, that the brain drain invariably hurts developing countries, is controversial. While a number of authorities endorse the conventional view that the brain drain hurts source countries, a contrarian literature suggests that the brain drain may help those left behind - that there is, in fact, a brain …
Immigration, Political Community, And Cosmopolitanism, Thomas Christiano
Immigration, Political Community, And Cosmopolitanism, Thomas Christiano
San Diego Law Review
In this Article, I want to suggest one important way to take the above issues seriously that is consistent with a thoroughgoing cosmopolitanism. The idea develops a consideration that has been discussed, but not sufficiently explored, by some cosmopolitans. It starts from the observation that one can be a moral cosmopolitan without being a political cosmopolitan in the sense of advocating for a global political community in the near-term future. To be sure, given the role of the political community in establishing justice among persons, it seems clear that in the long term, moral cosmopolitans must hope for a global …
Immigration And Political Equality, Michael Blake
Immigration And Political Equality, Michael Blake
San Diego Law Review
The act of immigration alters several forms of human relationship simultaneously. It represents a change in physical location and so alters the relationship between persons represented by geographic concepts such as territory and property. In immigrating, immigrants acquire a new place in the world that they may understand, in some sense of the word, as their own. Immigration also alters a political relationship insofar as the immigrant acquires a new political status in virtue of that new home in the world. The immigrant ought to be understood as creating through the act of immigration a new set of relationships to …

The Torturing Debate On Torture, Mohammed Saif-Alden Wattad
The Torturing Debate On Torture, Mohammed Saif-Alden Wattad
Northern Illinois University Law Review
The War on Terrorism generated a correlation between terrorism and torture. This article analyzes the basic premises of the torture debate by addressing the following issues: (1) defining torture; (2) punishing torturers; (3) justifying, excusing, or pardoning torturers; and (4) conducting legal interrogation. The article criticizes existing law on the torture debate for its lack of conceptuality and coherency, thus arguing that the articulation of the existing definition of torture has been politically motivated. The article offers a conceptual understanding of the torture phenomenon as premised on five conceptual distinctions: (1) superior versus inferior, (2) active versus passive, (3) theatricality …
War & [Emotional] Peace: Death In Iraq And The Need To Constitutionalize Speech-Based Lied Claims Beyond Hustler Magazine V. Falwell, Clay Calvert
Northern Illinois University Law Review
The protracted and ongoing war in Iraq has spawned several lawsuits in the United States based upon the tort theory of intentional infliction of emotional distress. This article focuses in depth on one of those recent cases, Read v. Lifeweaver, L.L.C., filed in federal court in Tennessee in April 2008. Using Read to illustrate its points, the article argues that the same constitutional safeguards extended by the United States Supreme Court in 1988 in Hustler Magazine v. Falwell against IIED claims filed by public figures should apply in cases like Read where the plaintiffs are private individuals outraged by a …
