Elizabeth Seton—Mission Of Education: Faith And Willingness To Risk, Betty Ann Mcneil D.C.

Vincentian Studies

Betty Ann McNeil imagines Elizabeth Seton speaking about her mission of education. Seton’s own words are combined with adaptations of her writings. The article recounts her call to mission and the difficulties she faced in New York, her mission in Maryland, and the challenges inherent in the founding of the Sisters of Charity and of Saint Joseph’s Academy in Emmitsburg. The educational model and the teaching methods used at Saint Joseph’s are discussed, and questions for reflection are offered to today’s educators. The Sisters’ works outside Emmitsburg are also mentioned.

The Sisters Of Charity In Cincinnati: 1829–1852, Judith Metz S.C.

Vincentian Studies

The Sisters of Charity arrived in Cincinnati in 1829 to establish a girls’ school and an orphanage at the bishop’s request. Both were named for Saint Peter and the school “was the first permanently established free school in Ohio.” Detailed history is given for these institutions, which grew constantly. The Sisters served hundreds of Catholic and Protestant children throughout the years. They also ran a boys’ orphanage for a short time until community policy changed, and they were nurses during several cholera epidemics. They “help[ed] to pioneer the growth of the Church in Ohio,” ministered despite anti-Catholic prejudice, and formed …

The Political Issues For African Immigrants In The United States, Paul E. Udofia

Trotter Review

Since the 1970s the African-born population in the United States has grown steadily in numbers. This increase of African immigrants offers an historic opportunity for sustained reconstruction of ancestral relationships with Black America. At this point, however, Africans who are mostly English-speaking and highly educated, remain largely isolated and even ostracized. So, what must be done for these groups, Blacks and African immigrants, to begin working together effectively? This essay begins with one basic query necessary for understanding this potential development: What is the current status of African immigrants in the United States? After providing a brief overview in response …

The Dilemma For American Business Regarding Health Care Reform, Joseph A. Cernik

Theses

Businesses of all sizes will have to work together to adequately address controlling their health care costs. At the present time, large corporations have options available to them to control their health care costs, but these options will not be sufficient in the long-term. Since smaller businesses are increasingly declining to provide health insurance to their employees, the result is the growth of the working uninsured who will become a problem that cannot easily be contained and will affect the ability of large corporations to address their health care costs. The dilemma that American business faces is the need to …

American Indians And The Burger Court, John R. Hermann, Karen O'Connor

Political Science Faculty Research

Objective. Like many politically disadvantaged groups, American Indian interests have turned to the courts when they lack access or clout in the electoral process.

The 63 full opinion cases regarding issues critical to American Indian interests were identified by examining the United States Reports.

[Review Of] Mary Carol Hopkins, Braving A New World: Cambodian (Khmer) Refugees In An American City, Corswang Ngin

Ethnic Studies Review

Cambodians, officially classified as Asian Americans, are a part of this large group which contributes to the country's fastest growing minority population. The Cambodians in Middle City, the pseudonym of a Midwestern city, however, live in a world unlike any resembling those in middle Asian America. They are victims of poverty, of dangerous urban housing and of social isolation. The majority are of poor health, illiterate in English, and too old or too distracted to learn. Hopkins' study of this community is classic ethnography, describing in vivid details the ordinary family and Buddhist ceremonial life of the Cambodians as they …

Factors That Influence The Non-Discretionary Work Trip By Bicycle Using Msa-Level Data From The 1990 U.S. Census, Michael R. Baltes

CUTR Research Reports

This paper explores an extensive range of factors which might have some contributory influence on the selection of the bicycle as the mode choice for the trip to work using MSA-Ievel data extracted from the 1990 U.S. Census. The sample included 100 percent of the MSAS in the U.S. Regression analysis was employed to provide insight into the contributory factors. The dependent variable used in the analysis was the percentage of the modal split captured by bicycle for the trip to work in each MSA.
