An Ethics Problem Involving Financial Abuse, Michael K. Mcchrystal Aug 2012

An Ethics Problem Involving Financial Abuse, Michael K. Mcchrystal

Marquette Elder's Advisor

This column, which analyzes a particular guardianship situation, illustrates the legal pitfalls created when an attorney, at the outset of establishing a guardianship, does not identify who is the client. When an adult child consults an attorney to establish a guardianship for an elderly parent, what obligations, both positive and negative, are imposed on the attorney to prevent harm to a former client.

Use Joint Tenancy Only With Extreme Caution, Sandra Sickler Aug 2012

Use Joint Tenancy Only With Extreme Caution, Sandra Sickler

Marquette Elder's Advisor

While joint tenancy can provide significant advantages, it can also have unintended consequences. Assets can be exposed to the joint owner's creditors, estate taxes may increase, and income tax advantages might be lost. Other forms of joint ownership, such as tenants in common or community property, may be more appropriate in specific situations.

The Adea At The Top Of The Food Chain: Who's Protecting The Higher-Salaried Employees?, Grant T. Moher Aug 2012

The Adea At The Top Of The Food Chain: Who's Protecting The Higher-Salaried Employees?, Grant T. Moher

Marquette Elder's Advisor

After the ruling in Hazen Paper, older workers who are terminated will have a more difficult burden proving their termination was based on age. Previously used disparate impact and disparate treatment theories will be more difficult to utilize, and employers may be allowed wider use of factors other that age as reasons for termination, without the fear that these factors will be considered age proxies.

Introduction, Kevin Curran, James Kearney Aug 2012

Introduction, Kevin Curran, James Kearney

Criticism

It might seem strange to devote a collection of essays to "Shakespeare and Phenomenology" in the second decade of the twenty-first century. After all, phenomenology as a philosophical movement had its heyday in the middle of the twentieth century. But phenomenology's demise as a major philosophical movement has enabled it to live on as the approach or method shorn of dogma that its earliest practitioners promised. Far from being a single school of thought, phenomenology now looks more like an intellectual diaspora, a galaxy of related but discreet propositions that share basic assumptions while pursuing different philosophical projects.

Problem-Based And Project-Based Learning In Engineering And Medicine: Determinants Of Students’ Engagement And Persistance, Denis Bédard, Christelle Lison, Daniel Dalle, Daniel Côté, Noël Boutin Aug 2012

Problem-Based And Project-Based Learning In Engineering And Medicine: Determinants Of Students’ Engagement And Persistance, Denis Bédard, Christelle Lison, Daniel Dalle, Daniel Côté, Noël Boutin

Interdisciplinary Journal of Problem-Based Learning

This paper presents results of a study conducted with undergraduate students involved in either problem- or project-based curricula (Medicine and Engineering, respectively) at the Université de Sherbrooke, Canada. The objective of the present research was to measure the impact of these innovative curricula on students’ engagement and persistence in higher education. Our research question was: What determinants better predict students’ engagement and persistence in innovative curricula such as PBL? Nine variables were examined as potential predictors of both factors (engagement and persistence). Results showed a variation in variables predicting engagement and persistence, with the most significant predictor being stress related.
