Byu And Religious Universities In A Secular Academic World, Alan L. Wilkins, David A. Whetten Sep 2012

Byu And Religious Universities In A Secular Academic World, Alan L. Wilkins, David A. Whetten

BYU Studies

How unique is BYU? This article examines the secularization of American higher education during the early twentieth century, then compares BYU to eight other major religiously affiliated research universities. The comparison reveals that BYU is very different from other universities in both its mission and in the way it views and offers a higher learning experience.

BYU Studies

He is the editor of the Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society and is the author of books and articles on biblical texts …


Within These Prison Walls: Lorenzo Snow's Record Book, 1886–1897, Jill N. Crandell, Richard N. Holzapfel, Andrew H. Hedges Sep 2012

Within These Prison Walls: Lorenzo Snow's Record Book, 1886–1897, Jill N. Crandell, Richard N. Holzapfel, Andrew H. Hedges

BYU Studies

Andrew H. Hedges, historian and editor for the Joseph Smith Papers Project, and Richard Neitzel Holzapfel, professor of Church history and doctrine at Brigham Young University, present in this volume a window to the thoughts and feelings of Lorenzo Snow during a particularly challenging time in his life. This record book contains some of his writings while he was in prison, having been convicted of three counts of unlawful cohabitation. Although a prison diary written by a polygamist of this time period is not unusual, Snow's record book is particularly interesting because he was an Apostle of The Church of …


Compromising Scholarship: Religious And Political Bias In American Higher Education, George Yancey, Bruce A. Chadwick Sep 2012

Compromising Scholarship: Religious And Political Bias In American Higher Education, George Yancey, Bruce A. Chadwick

BYU Studies

George Yancey, a professor of sociology at the University of North Texas, has focused his research on racial and ethnic bias. His recent books include Interracial Families: Current Concepts and Controversies and Interracial Contact and Social Change. Yancey's newest study in Compromising Scholarship documents the bias of university faculty against members of various groups. Professor Yancey, aware that scientists, just like other Americans, are hesitant to reveal any prejudice or bias, focused his study on "collegiality" in an attempt to distract respondents from the research interest in bias. Yancey conducted his study via Internet survey and blog analyses in the …


Parallels And Convergences: Mormon Thought And Engineering Vision, A. Scott Howe, Douglas M. Chabries, Richard L. Bushman Sep 2012

Parallels And Convergences: Mormon Thought And Engineering Vision, A. Scott Howe, Douglas M. Chabries, Richard L. Bushman

BYU Studies

The essays contained in this text grew from an initial discussion between Richard L. Bushman and NASA engineer A. Scott Howe, a discussion that delved into the ways theology and engineering converge. That conversation led to a subsequent meeting, which was held at Claremont Graduate University in March 2009. There, LDS engineers from a variety of technical backgrounds representing such fields as computer programming, physics, and artificial intelligence presented their views relating to modern scripture and its harmony with science. Though at times the language contains some technical terms, the articles provide insight into general areas of faith that are …

The Case Of Lautsi V. Italy: A Synthesis, Grégor Puppinck Sep 2012

The Case Of Lautsi V. Italy: A Synthesis, Grégor Puppinck

BYU Law Review

The case of Lautsi v. Italy, better known as the “Crucifix Case,” is a particularly significant case. Its significance is not only political and legal, but also religious. Never before in the history of the European Court of Human Rights and the Council of Europe has a case raised so much public attention and debate. The debate regarding the legitimacy of the symbol of Christ’s presence in Italian schools is emblematic of the cultural crisis in Western Europe regarding religion. Twenty-one State parties to the European Convention on Human Rights, in an unprecedented move, joined Italy to reassert the legitimacy …

Reframing Federalism — The Affordable Care Act (And Broccoli) In The Supreme Court, Wendy K. Mariner, Leonard H. Glantz, George J. Annas Sep 2012

Reframing Federalism — The Affordable Care Act (And Broccoli) In The Supreme Court, Wendy K. Mariner, Leonard H. Glantz, George J. Annas

Faculty Scholarship

The U.S. Supreme Court decision to uphold most of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), including the insurance-coverage requirement, allows historic reforms in the health care system to move forward. Because the justices were split four to four on whether the ACA was constitutional, Chief Justice John Roberts was able to write the lead opinion that commanded five votes for whatever outcome he determined was constitutional. The chief justice's leadership in upholding almost all of the ACA was unanticipated, as was much of his legal reasoning. It was widely assumed that the interpretation of the Commerce Clause by the Court would …

Expression And Localization Of Aquaporin‐1 In Temporomandibular Joint Disc With Internal Derangement, Carla Loreto, Concetta Galanti, Luis Eduardo Almeida, Rosalia Leonardi, Giuseppe Pannone, Giuseppe Musumeci, Maria Luisa Carnazza, Rosario Caltabiano Sep 2012

Expression And Localization Of Aquaporin‐1 In Temporomandibular Joint Disc With Internal Derangement, Carla Loreto, Concetta Galanti, Luis Eduardo Almeida, Rosalia Leonardi, Giuseppe Pannone, Giuseppe Musumeci, Maria Luisa Carnazza, Rosario Caltabiano

School of Dentistry Faculty Research and Publications

Background: Internal derangement is the most frequent arthropathy affecting the temporomandibular joint, where its commonest form is anterior disc displacement with or without reduction. Despite the frequency of the disorder, the biochemical features of displaced discs are still unclear.

Methods: We investigated the expression pattern and localization of aquaporin‐1, an important channel protein involved in plasma membrane water permeability, in patients with anterior disc displacement (both with and without reduction), with a view to assessing the characteristics of local tissue responses to the microenvironmental changes induced by abnormal mechanical loading of the displaced disc. Protein expression was studied by immunohistochemistry …


Effectiveness Of A Peer-Led Hiv Prevention Intervention In Secondary Schools In Rwanda: Results From A Non-Randomized Controlled Trial, Kristien Michielsen, Roxanne Beauclair, Wim Delva, Kristien Roelens, Ronan Van Rossem, Marleen Temmerman Sep 2012

Effectiveness Of A Peer-Led Hiv Prevention Intervention In Secondary Schools In Rwanda: Results From A Non-Randomized Controlled Trial, Kristien Michielsen, Roxanne Beauclair, Wim Delva, Kristien Roelens, Ronan Van Rossem, Marleen Temmerman

Obstetrics and Gynaecology, East Africa

Background: While the HIV epidemic is levelling off in sub-Saharan Africa, it remains at an unacceptably high level. Young people aged 15-24 years remain particularly vulnerable, resulting in a regional HIV prevalence of 1.4% in young men and 3.3% in young women. This study assesses the effectiveness of a peer-led HIV prevention intervention in secondary schools in Rwanda on young people’s sexual behavior, HIV knowledge and attitudes.

Methods: In a non-randomized longitudinal controlled trial, fourteen schools were selected in two neighboring districts in Rwanda Bugesera (intervention) and Rwamagana (control). Students (n= 1950) in eight intervention and six control schools participated …
