The Promethean Promise: Understanding And Responding To The Educational Aspirations Of Black People In The Us, Seventy Years After Brown, Joaquín M.S. Noguera, Pedro A. Noguera
The Promethean Promise: Understanding And Responding To The Educational Aspirations Of Black People In The Us, Seventy Years After Brown, Joaquín M.S. Noguera, Pedro A. Noguera
School of Education Faculty Works
In this paper, we use Prometheus and his perpetual punishment to draw attention to the historic role Black people have played in U.S. education and contemplate the state of education for Black people 70 years after the Brown decision. We note the parallels between the period of reconstruction to the current period and use a case study of a school in Oakland, California to draw attention to a community-based response to the unfulfilled promise of the historic Brown decision. Our hope is that the case study can be used to undertake similar initiatives.
Social Support And Treatment Outcomes Among Multi-Drug Resistant Tuberculosis And Persons Living With Hiv In Nigeria, Abiodun Olusegun Hassan
Social Support And Treatment Outcomes Among Multi-Drug Resistant Tuberculosis And Persons Living With Hiv In Nigeria, Abiodun Olusegun Hassan
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
An estimated 40% of people with tuberculosis (TB) are missed due to underdiagnosis, and among those previously treated TB cases, about a quarter develop drug-resistant TB in Nigeria. The emergence of multi-drug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) is stalling the effort towards TB’s control and eradication. Few studies have examined the impact of the psychosocial effect and support systems for TB, particularly for MDR-TB. In this quantitative, cross-sectional study, the predictive relationship between social support given to MDR-TB patients and their treatment outcomes was examined using secondary data of 594 MDR-TB cases enrolled between January 2018 and December 2021. The theoretical framework for …
Understanding Strain-Level Dynamics In Gut Commensal-Pathogen-Host Interactions, Anna Louise Deveaux
Understanding Strain-Level Dynamics In Gut Commensal-Pathogen-Host Interactions, Anna Louise Deveaux
Arts & Sciences Graduate Student Theses and Dissertations
The human gut microbiome is a consortium of trillions of bacteria, archaea, fungi, and viruses that colonizes the gastrointestinal tract and promotes health under homeostatic conditions. This microbial community trains the immune system, modulates inflammation and anticancer immunity, promotes cardiometabolic health, enables nutrient extraction, and prevents pathogen overgrowth. The latter function manifests through colonization resistance, in which microbes occupy spatial and nutritional niches thereby excluding pathogens from the community entirely, and through limiting pathogen population growth if colonization occurs. These roles are facilitated by complex host-microbe and microbe-microbe interactions that underlie differences in susceptibility to microbiome-mediated infectious diseases. The strain-level …

Prehistoric Origins Of The Chippewa Indians, Ronald A. Janke
Prehistoric Origins Of The Chippewa Indians, Ronald A. Janke
The Geographical Bulletin
This paper investigates the location of precontact Chippewa contacts and the complexities of the geographic environment in which they occurred. Reconstructed land use and settlement maps along with recent archaeological and linguistic research have added new ideas concerning the origin, early migrations, and contacts of the Chippewa Indians. Very little is known about the culture and the area that the Chippewa occupied before the time of European influence. According to the legends and traditions of the Chippewa, they originally inhabited the area next to the Gulf of the St. Lawrence River, near the Atlantic Ocean, and gradually moved westward and …

The Impact Of A Growth Center On An Agricultural Hinterland: A Case Study Of Taegu, Korea, Soohyun Chon
The Geographical Bulletin
Although the location of large urban centers such as Seoul, Pusan, and Taegu has had a major impact on changes in the surrounding agricultural hinterland, regional differences of agricultural development in Korea have not received much attention until recently (Fig. 1). Keidel, for example, noted that Kyongi-do and Kyongsangnam-do have higher agricultural income levels than the remainder of the country because they produce commercial crops for Seoul and Pusan, respectively.1 More recently, after the construction of a modern highway between these two cities, Chungchongbuk-do and Kyongsangbuk-do provinces emerged as the major suppliers of commercial crops for Seoul and Pusan. If …

An Evaluation Of Planned Settlement In The Bolivian Tropics: The 1974 Plans, Martha A. Works
The Geographical Bulletin
In the early 1960's Bolivia made the first set of attempts at colonization of the lowlands, or Oriente, lying east of the Andes. This effort was largely in response to events that had taken place earlier in the century, namely the Chaco War, the Social Revolution of 1952 and the collapse of the mining economy.1 Colonization schemes were implemented in an attempt to provide enough land for the people, increase opportunities for displaced miners, and to promote national unity by settling the eastern areas of the nation.2 The early colonization projects were concentrated in two areas -the Alto Beni (east …

As incoming editor, I wish to extend my appreciation to Gamma Theta Upsilon's Board of Directors for their confidence in me, and to the membership for their continuing support of the Society. During recent meetings, the Board decided that Volume 19 should initiate a new format. This has resulted from a policy change that now directs the editor to include materials previously contained in the Newsletter. The Second Vice President will continue to receive these news items from the chapters, prepare them for publication, and send them to me. In this instance, I am pleased to cite the highly professional …

Bending Traditions To Avoid Breaking The Rulesthe Arthur, Illinois Amish, Page Redmond
Bending Traditions To Avoid Breaking The Rulesthe Arthur, Illinois Amish, Page Redmond
The Geographical Bulletin
When the people of the Amish faith fled religious persecution in Europe and arrived in Pennsylvania about 1727, they came not to start a new life, but to preserve the old ways of living and farming.1 However, the reality of the outside has crept into their sheltered culture in the form of land shortages and higher prices for that land which does exist. These pressures, coupled with the all too constant awareness of the world outside their culture and its many changes and advances, have caused a weakening in some of the once strictly held traditions. From the outside, it …
Rural Development Versus Rural Preservation: Conflicting Usda Land Use Programs And Policies, Susan Oglesbee Burt
Rural Development Versus Rural Preservation: Conflicting Usda Land Use Programs And Policies, Susan Oglesbee Burt
The Geographical Bulletin
With the mounting cost of farm ownership and operation, and the rapid increase in urbanization, the issue of farmland preservation has come to the forefront in many states, counties, townships, and villages. These factors, combined with inflation, severe fluctuations in the economy, and restrictions in the use of natural resources, have brought about heightened concern on the part of farmers in recent years. Farmers and rural communities are seeking alternative ways to cope with these conditions. Sale of their land to the highest bidder is one option that often results in conversion of prime agricultural land to other uses. The …
Suburban Land-Use Policies And. Community Pressure Groups In Southfield, Michigan, Joseph H. Kogelmann
Suburban Land-Use Policies And. Community Pressure Groups In Southfield, Michigan, Joseph H. Kogelmann
The Geographical Bulletin
Creation and preservation of affluent suburban communities is dependent upon the existence of political expedients, whose primary function is to insure perpetuation of exclusionary socioeconomic barriers. Local land-use policies, as determined by municipal zoning regulations and building codes, have become mechanisms by which the status quo is maintained. The content of local land-use policies is particularly susceptible to political influence of community pressure groups. These groups are often a major force in the community decision-making process as they seek to mold local public policy in accordance with their own conceptions. Suburban elected officials have been extremely responsive to demands of …
Seasonal And Annual Precipitation Efficiency In The Eastern United States·, Jeffrey T. Lutz
Seasonal And Annual Precipitation Efficiency In The Eastern United States·, Jeffrey T. Lutz
The Geographical Bulletin
PreCipitation efficiency (Pe) is the percentage of the average atmospheric water vapor above a station that is released and falls to earth as measurable preCipitation in a given time period. Pe is a single parameter describing the efficiency of atmospheric mechanisms in releasing moisture. Temporal and spatial variations in Pe are controlled primarily by synoptic atmospheric systems. The relationship between atmospheric systems and seasonal! annual variations in Pe is investigated for the United States east of the Rocky Mountains. Regional variations in seasonal and annual averages of Pe suggest the relative effectiveness of dynamic and thermodynamic preCipitation mechanisms. Basically, the …

These listings are indeed similar, both placing emphasis in the same general areas of concern and suggested activity. However, I bel ieve a dichotomy exists, not between GTU's brochure and the Association of College Honor Societies Booklet of Information, 1981-82, but HERE within Gamma Theta Upsilon, an Interna7 tional Geographical Honor Society. Where does it say: recognize academic and mental achievements, recognize excellence of performance, reward and recognize the attainment of scholarship of a superior quality? GTU's stated purposes do not include these ideas or concerns. GTU's purposes are to create interest, to strengthen training, to make geography practical for …
Crucible Of Excellence: The Honor Society, O. Orland Maxfield
Crucible Of Excellence: The Honor Society, O. Orland Maxfield
The Geographical Bulletin
It has been some time since I have heard the rather piquant phrase, "to defend one's honor." Indeed, I do not often hear the word "honor" or read of it in the current mass media. It is as though we take "honor" for granted or it has been relegated to the zone of discard along with integrity and virtue. Perhaps we have become jaundiced by the everyday, commonplace, dishonorable actions of political and business figures, and sometimes even of our closer acquaintances. Think for a moment of the aphorisms relative to honor that you have heard all of your lives. …

Once upon a time in the land of academia, there existed an esteemed Department of Geography. It was steeped in tradition and was recognized by its peers as being among the foremost academic departments in the world. Yet this recognition was inadequate to spare it from an abrupt termination. This Department of Geography whose allegiance was once claimed by such notable geographers as Carl Sauer, Preston James, George Kish and others was sentenced to extinction by the Board of Regents on June 19, 1981. It is small consolation that the doors of the Department will officially close during mid-1982. I …

"Taking" Photographs: Settler Aesthetics In 20th Century Hawaiian Postcards, Elena Lee, Rebecca Koerselman
Celebration of Research
Due to colonization, Hawaii’s economic, political, and societal structure were changed to fit the white American standard. Colonization also caused a shift in their aesthetics, including the exclusion from participation in the creation of art, and poor visual representations of Hawaiian culture in settler art, which is known as “settler aesthetics.” Settler Aesthetics is a term and theory that seeks to define how a culture’s art and beauty has been influenced by settler colonialism. Many historians have analyzed this theory in Hawaiian literature, music, and visual art, but have left untouched the field of deltiology; the study of postcards. Though …
Shellfish Regulation: Conservation And Discrimination, Maine Law Review
Shellfish Regulation: Conservation And Discrimination, Maine Law Review
Maine Law Review
The economy of many coastal states depends heavily upon the shellfish industry. Shellfish such as lobsters and clams are an especially important marine resource for these states. In recent years, however, the supply of shellfish has experienced substantial declines. State laws that permit the harvesting of lobsters prior to sexual maturity, for example, have made the lobster industry dependent on the yearly additions to the lobster supply. The increasing demands for shellfish as well as the pollution of areas such as coastal clamflats have also contributed to the serious depletion of the shellfish resources in many areas. Despite the possible …
Boundary Delimitation In The Economic Zone: The Gulf Of Maine Dispute, Maine Law Review
Boundary Delimitation In The Economic Zone: The Gulf Of Maine Dispute, Maine Law Review
Maine Law Review
In an ideal world of abundant natural resources, homogeneously distributed among nations, the issue of marine boundary delimitation would have little significance within the international community. However, the realities of randomly concentrated and limited resources, complicated by the political geography of the oceans, have made maritime boundary delimitation a crucial international issue. In a world of more than 130 coastal nations, the determination of standards for allocation of living and non-living ocean resources within the fertile offshore areas has become an issue of widespread economic importance. Nonetheless, the international community has developed few concrete and specific rules for marine boundary …

A Geospatial Approach To Measuring Economic Activity, Anton Yang, Jianwei Ai, Costas Arkolakis
Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers
We introduce a new methodology to detect and measure economic activity using geospatial data and apply it to steel production, a major industrial pollution source worldwide. Combining plant output data with geospatial data, such as ambient air pollutants, nighttime lights, and temperature, we train machine learning models to predict plant locations and output. We identify about 40% (70%) of plants missing from the training sample within a 1 km (5 km) radius and achieve R2 above 0.8 for output prediction at a 1 km grid and at the plant level, as well as for both regional and time series …

Reshaping U.S. Imports: An Analysis Of How Shifting Indicators Impact International Manufacturing Location Decisions & The Apparel Industry, Emilia Wojciechowska
Honors Projects in Global Supply Chain Management
United States imports have grown in recent years due to various geographic sourcing strategies. Each company that chooses to participate in manufacturing whether in-house, offshore, or nearshore has contributed to the economic growth of the US. In recent years, internal and external factors have affected the results of international trade. Indicators have been identified, but they are historically indicators that have not adapted due to the frequent changes in supply chains. The measurement of indicators allows for identification of the most influential indicators that impact the trends within U.S. imports. Significant indicators are dependent on the country and its available …
The Role Of Gender Equity In Olympic Success Using Panel Data, Anusha Khan
The Role Of Gender Equity In Olympic Success Using Panel Data, Anusha Khan
Honors Projects in Mathematics and Economics
This study investigates whether gender equity is one of the determinants of Olympic success at the country level. Using panel data with 766 observations from six Olympic years (2012–2022), it examines the relationship between gender equity and national medal counts. Three Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) models were estimated using total, men’s, and women’s medal counts as dependent variables. While the findings vary across models, results suggest that gender equity may be positively associated with Olympic performance, though its significance is limited when controlling for other social and economic variables.
