Tax Liability For Wage Theft, Sachin S. Pandya May 2012

Tax Liability For Wage Theft, Sachin S. Pandya

Faculty Articles and Papers

This paper shows how, under existing tax law, illegal wage underpayment by an employer (sometimes called “wage theft”) may generate employer tax liability for unreported income or disallowed business expense deductions.

Finally, the paper discusses possible influences on the decision of the unpaid worker to inform on the employer to the tax authority, …

Health Mentally Incompetent Persons: Sterilization, Georgia State University Law Review

Nonprofit Continuum: Brazilian-Centered Organizations In The Bay Area Of San Francisco, Caroline Rehill May 2012

Nonprofit Continuum: Brazilian-Centered Organizations In The Bay Area Of San Francisco, Caroline Rehill

Master's Theses

Brazil has always been a country of immigration. Since the mid 1980s, Brazil has also become a country of emigration. Brazilians have migrated to the United States in large numbers throughout the past decades. In the host country, Brazilians experience the same issues inherent in any immigrant community, such as immigration status, education, health, and socio-economic issues. To address these issues and ease immigrants’ stay in the host country, nonprofit organizations and community groups are created. This thesis project examines, identifies, categorizes, and contextualizes the Brazilian-centered nonprofit organizations in the Bay Area of San Francisco. Contrary to existing research on …

The Relationship Between Student Ratings And Student Retention, Isis Artze-Vega May 2012

The Relationship Between Student Ratings And Student Retention, Isis Artze-Vega

Open Access Dissertations

The relationship between students’ ratings of their instructors and student retention at the University of Miami was examined, extending a new thread of retention research which investigates the impact of students’ classroom experiences on their persistence. The predictive ability of other factors known to impact retention (including students’ race/ethnicity, SAT scores, family income, and grade-point averages) was also examined, and these were controlled for to discern the unique contribution of student ratings to retention. The sample consisted of students who enrolled in this institution in 2002, 2003, and 2004, and the independent variables of interest were their ratings of their …
