Vcu Today (1984-09-12)

VCU Today, 1972-1988

VCU Today, the University’s first official administrative organ, began as a somewhat irregular monthly publication but moved to a bi-weekly newspaper format in the 1980s. The newspaper changed its name to VCU Voice in 1988 and ten years later it appeared under the title UniverCity News. As it neared the end of its run as a physical newspaper, the publication became simply VCU News. These four publications were essentially the same periodical published under different titles by the Office of University Relations. VCU News appeared online for the first time in 2002.

The Social Security Controversy: Does The Solution Ignore The Problem?, Martin B. Tracy Sep 1984

The Social Security Controversy: Does The Solution Ignore The Problem?, Martin B. Tracy

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

In 1982 the income levels of 18 percent of women age 65 and over were below the poverty line compared to 7.6 percent of men in the same age group (Kutza, 1982). The reasons for a higher incidence of poverty among older women are often correctly attributed to the generally unfavorable position of women in the labor market. A less frequently discussed contributing factor is the programmatic deficiency of old-age pensions under social security.

Two fundamental aspects of old-age pensions have been particularly unresponsive to meeting the economic needs of older women. These are: 1) relating income protection to paid …

Anticipatory Socialization Toward Occupational Retirement, Yael Kremer, Itzhak Harpaz Sep 1984

Anticipatory Socialization Toward Occupational Retirement, Yael Kremer, Itzhak Harpaz

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

The willingness of older workers to participate in a retirement planning program served as an indicator of their anticipatory socialization toward retirement. Six independent variables were introduced in order to examine their effect on the workers' attitude toward pre-retirement counseling (dependent variable). A path analysis revealed that intention to continue working after retirement had a significant negative effect on the dependent variable. The most significant positive effect was that of Educational Level. In the discussion of the findings it is shown that the desire of pre-retirees to continue working is interpreted as un-realistic anticipatory socialization, indicating their reluctance to assume …


Income And Personal Resources: Correlates Of Psychological Adjustment To Widowhood, Martha N. Ozawa, Susan Whitelaw Downs, Daniel Frigo Sep 1984

Income And Personal Resources: Correlates Of Psychological Adjustment To Widowhood, Martha N. Ozawa, Susan Whitelaw Downs, Daniel Frigo

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

This study investigates factors that may determine the level of psychological adjustment to widowhood. Independent variables considered in this study are income and human capital. The population from which the study's sample was drawn consists of all nonremarried widows with at least one child receiving survivor benefits from social security in 1978 (N=3,041). The results support the importance of human capital variables for their predictive power. On the other hand, family income has not been found statistically significant. The source of data for this study is the 1978 Survey of Survivor Families with Children conducted by the Social Security Administration.


Endometrium Cell Surface Abnormalities In The Syrian Hamster As A Result Of In Utero Exposure To Diethylstilbestrol, J. Gilloteaux, A. W. Steggles Aug 1984

Endometrium Cell Surface Abnormalities In The Syrian Hamster As A Result Of In Utero Exposure To Diethylstilbestrol, J. Gilloteaux, A. W. Steggles

Scanning Electron Microscopy

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to observe changes in the hamster endometrium cell surface following in utero pre- and/or postnatal exposure to diethylstilbestrol (DES). Some of the changes in cell surfaces are associated with alterations in cell sizes and shapes (from columnar to cuboidal and/or squamous) and in microvilli and mucous secretion. In all cases, DES treated uteri show mucosal cell surface pleomorphism, apocrine secretion and cystic accumulation of secretory material. Microvillous pleomorphism and peculiar linkages attaching one microvillus to others were investigated. Although the function and nature of such linkages is unclear, their presence seems to be more …
