The Populist movement of the late nineteenth century proved a strong presence in states across the Southern and Western United States for a variety of reasons. Burdensome debt, frustration over monopolies, and overall financial decline characterize the core of Populist’s economic grievances, while demands for more direct participation of citizens in politics provide the basis of their political designs. Each state faced its own unique circumstances that Populists were responding to, but these provide a general framework for the movement nationwide. Despite these shared grievances, Populist candidates and parties did not see equal success across the nation. States west of …

Nucleophilic additions to epoxides are an important class of reactions in organic chemistry which have found use in material science, as intermediates, and in the synthesis of biologically important compounds. Many nucleophiles add to epoxides via a SN2 mechanism at the least substituted carbon. However, under acidic conditions addition is at the most substituted carbon via a SN1 mechanism. Included within this class of reactions is the addition of carboxylic acids to epoxides using tetrabutylammonium bromide as the catalyst. These reactions are straight forward and give high yields of the product. However, previous work in our lab using phthalimide as …

With increasing technology innovations, the world is moving towards digitalization. These advancements in technology caused changes in the global education system. The most significant change was the transition in teaching methods from oral to computer based. Computer-based education creates interest among students about a particular topic and students can understand visuals better than reading textbooks or listening to an oral lecture. Countries such as India have both public and private schools. However, in India, just a few public schools implemented computer-based education. Thus, students in public schools may have poor computer abilities, remain uninterested in academics, lack fundamental concepts, and …
