Immigration And Farm Labor In The U.S., Philip Martin, Douglas B. Jackson-Smith
Immigration And Farm Labor In The U.S., Philip Martin, Douglas B. Jackson-Smith
Sociology, Social Work and Anthropology Faculty Publications
Hired workers comprise 33 percent of people employed on farms but do an estimated 60 percent of the work performed on U.S. farms. Most hired farm workers were born abroad, usually in Mexico, and most are believed not to be authorized to work in the U.S. Changes in Mexico-US migration flows and more restrictive immigration laws and policies have increased the vulnerability of U.S. agriculture to labor supply shocks, which could increase costs and threaten the ability of some farmers to harvest laborintensive crops. Congress is considering major changes in immigration policies. Farm employers want access to a reliable supply …

From Gibbons To Gymnasts: A Look At The Biomechanics And Neurophysiology Of Brachiation In Gibbons And Its Human Rediscovery, Emma Et Pennock
From Gibbons To Gymnasts: A Look At The Biomechanics And Neurophysiology Of Brachiation In Gibbons And Its Human Rediscovery, Emma Et Pennock
Student Works
This conference paper serves to examine the evolutionary linkages of a brachiating ancestor in humans, the biomechanical and neurophysiology of modern day brachiators, and the human rediscovery of this form of locomotion. Brachiation is arguably one of the most metabolically effective modes of travel by any organism and can be observed most meritoriously in Gibbons. The purpose of the research conducted for this paper was to encourage further exploration of the neurophysiological similarities and differences between humans and non-human primates. The hope is that in spurring more interest and research in this area, further possibilities for rehabilitating brain injury will …

Citizens Of The Empire: A Molding Of Victorian Childhood Identity, Christopher B. Gallagher
Citizens Of The Empire: A Molding Of Victorian Childhood Identity, Christopher B. Gallagher
Masters Theses, 2010-2019
The Victorian Era in Great Britain was a time period of dramatic change. The Industrial Revolution was altering the social and economic fabric of society. Socially, Victorians were confronted with new theories that challenged their religious beliefs. The British Isles were progressing steadily in creating a national identity. Finally, the existence of the British Empire made imperialism a factor that cannot be ignored. Yet, many historians have pointed out that the history of the British metropole itself is often disconnected from the political and cultural history of the Empire. It is within this conversation that this project seeks to find …
Failure Of Imagination: Gender Integration And Negotiated Identities At The United States Air Force Academy, Amelia Frances Underwood
Failure Of Imagination: Gender Integration And Negotiated Identities At The United States Air Force Academy, Amelia Frances Underwood
Masters Theses, 2010-2019
Public Law-106, which authorized the admittance of women into the five federal service academies, was historically significant as it reversed the previous male-only policy at the nation’s premier military leadership institutions. Its 1975 passage reflected the groundwork established by military women as well as two decades of feminist activism in America. The entrance of women at the service academies clearly challenged the existing norms for women’s roles in the military and arguably in American society as well; furthermore, an analysis of primary source documents and oral histories provides insight into how men and women at the Air Force Academy confronted …

A Board Game Simulator For Promoting System Thinking For Sustainable Pastoralism Among Maasai In Southern Kenya, Jacob Loorimirim Mayiani
A Board Game Simulator For Promoting System Thinking For Sustainable Pastoralism Among Maasai In Southern Kenya, Jacob Loorimirim Mayiani
Masters Theses, 2010-2019
A culturally-anchored board game simulator named ERAMAT! was created in cooperation with faculty members and members of the Maasai community and then piloted with US students and members of Maasai communities in southern Kenya during the summer of 2012. The game provides an alternative to a computer-based simulator, and hence provides a culturally credible simulation of the system dynamics associated with an accelerating boom/bust cycle of drought and hunger in the region. Factors driving the phenomena include greatly increased population densities, pastoralist cultural values, evolving pastoral practices, the ebb and flow of the semi-arid environment in which Maasai pastoralists live, …

Soldiers For Democracy: Karl Loewenstein, John H. Herz, Militant Democracy And The Defense Of The Democratic State, Ben Plache
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis explores the work of two German Jewish émigré scholars, Karl Loewenstein and John H. Herz, and how they confronted the conflict between fascism and democracy throughout the 1930s and during World War II. Loewenstein, in academic publications and later through a campaign of public advocacy, urged the adoption of his theory of militant democracy for the protection of democratic institutions. Originally conceived as temporary legislation to deprive fascists of the fundamental rights they abused in order to seize power, this theory evolved into the understanding by Loewenstein that fascist and democratic states could not coexist, and that fundamental …

Dingley, Erzsebet Polyak, Julian Ostrovsky, Satish Srinivasan, Mary Selak, Rui Xiao, Theodore G. Schurr, Eiko Nakamaru-Ogiso, Marni J. Falk
Research Day
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence variation is increasingly recognized to influence the penetrance of complex diseases and climatic adaptation in mammals, although little is known about its influence on invertebrate species’ adaptation to unique geographic niches. We investigated whether natural variation in mtDNA-encoded respiratory chain subunits alters the inherent mitochondrial energy capacity of wild C. elegans isolates to match local environmental energy demands. We found that relative to the classic N2 Bristol (England) wild-type strain, CB4856 wild isolates from a warmer and more equatorial native climate (Hawaii) had a unique A12S amino acid substitution in the N-terminal string of the COX-1 …

Shattering The Political Or The Question Of War In Heidegger’S "Letter On Humanism.”, Babette Babich
Shattering The Political Or The Question Of War In Heidegger’S "Letter On Humanism.”, Babette Babich
Working Papers
Jean Beaufret’s question concerning humanism was “politically” framed on several levels as initially presented to Heidegger.1 Accordingly, Heidegger’s own response was itself political: invoking both technology and the self-same question of science that we remain—and to this day—still “too pious” (in Nietzsche’s words) to be able to frame as a question: the very same question Heidegger develops in his later lectures delivered to the businessmen of Germany, including his Question Concerning Technology. The preoccupation with thinking technology and thinking science remains with Heidegger to the end of his life. Even more significant perhaps (particularly in proximity with Heidegger’s focus …

Salva La Iglesia: Intercultural Capital And The Struggle For Community In A Small Town Congregation, Maria E. Schwarz
Senior Theses
The purpose of this study is to examine community response to crisis and the impact of intercultural interactions on the outcome of ethnic and religious group conflict. I seek to expand the traditional theoretical lens of forms of capital (Bourdieu, 1986) to include a new way of examining group interactions as they relate to intercultural capital. I use a case study focusing on the San Martín Catholic Mission in western Oregon and the ways this particular community responded to the crisis of the Catholic diocese threatening to sell their property in 2010. I gathered data from a year of ethnographic …

Archeological Investigations For The Levi Jordan Plantation House Stabilization, Brazoria County, Texas, Jennifer K. Mcwilliams, Douglas K. Boyd, Aaron Norment
Index of Texas Archaeology: Open Access Gray Literature from the Lone Star State
The Levi Jordan plantation house is one of the few antebellum plantation structures to have survived in Brazoria County. It is the only standing structure associated with the plantation, which began operating in 1848 and was occupied continually up through the 1990s. The original house, built in the early 1850s using slave labor, was a 20x60-ft two-story wooden frame structure. It was altered many times during its long occupation, often due to hurricane damage. A portion of the Levi Jordan Plantation was acquired by the State of Texas in 2002 and managed by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department until …
Diminishing Horizons: A Critical Look At History Education In America, Lisa N. Eekhoff
Diminishing Horizons: A Critical Look At History Education In America, Lisa N. Eekhoff
Master of Education Program Theses
Throughout the twentieth century, the structure of history education in elementary schools has shifted from a traditional, chronological structure to the expanding horizons structure. This thesis examines the philosophical underpinnings of each structure in light of a biblical view of teaching history. Emphasis is placed on historical understanding, training in historical analysis, and sense of identity. It is proposed that a chronological structure may present the child with a deeper understanding of historical events as well as a clearer view of historical principles. Additionally, it is proposed that a chronological structure may impart a more biblical view of self in …
