Voices Of Women In The Field--Reflections From A Chair, Clarissa Craig Jul 2005

Voices Of Women In The Field--Reflections From A Chair, Clarissa Craig

Journal of Women in Educational Leadership

I did not grow up wanting to be a woman administrator in a community college setting ... or a woman administrator anywhere for that matter. Until about the sixth grade when my height shot up to almost six feet, I was going to be an airline stewardess and jet set around the world. Liking science and math, my attentions then turned to being a doctor, specifically a pediatrician. How did I get here? It hasn't been a particularly circuitous path. Yet, it is one that does seem to have evolved rather than having been a conscious choice at some point. …


Notes From The Great American Desert, Marilyn L. Grady, Barbara Y. Lacost Jul 2005

Notes From The Great American Desert, Marilyn L. Grady, Barbara Y. Lacost

Journal of Women in Educational Leadership

Invisibility may be one of the greatest challenges women face. One of the great flaws in the writing of U.S. history has been the omission of the role or presence of women from the written record-women are invisible. Fortunately, three women authors (i.e., Willa Cather (1873-1947), Bess Streeter Aldrich (1881-1954) and Mari Sandoz (1896-1966)) of Nebraska have chronicled settlement stories in their writings. They have preserved, through their writings, the presence, work, and contributions of women during the homesteading, pioneer, and early settlement years in Nebraska. Their efforts are a fine antidote to women's invisibility. May you also write so …


First Things First: Writing Strategies, Marilyn L. Grady Jul 2005

First Things First: Writing Strategies, Marilyn L. Grady

Journal of Women in Educational Leadership

Finding a niche for your writing is essential. If you are writing for publication, then you want your manuscript to appear in print. Consider if the topic is "publishable." Some topical areas are saturated, so writing in these areas may be futile. If journal editors do not have space in a journal, or interest in a topic, the manuscript will not be published. It also would be wise to determine "which topics are hot" and "which topics are not."


Review Of The Middle Of Everywhere: Helping Refugees Enter The American Community By Mary Pipher., Patricia Hoffman Jul 2005

Review Of The Middle Of Everywhere: Helping Refugees Enter The American Community By Mary Pipher., Patricia Hoffman

Journal of Women in Educational Leadership

Pipher, author of The Middle of Everywhere: Helping ReJugees Enter the American Community, has written an intensively personal narrative exploring her own consciousness as well as giving an eye-opening treatise on the immigrant experience. Although some approached this conflict with a combative spirit, patriotic zeal, or a call for isolationism, Pipher chose a personal approach culled from her first hand experience with some of these newest immigrants. Pipher did not set out to do an ethnographic study. One emerged spontaneously as she became involved in the lives of refugees, migrant workers, and other recent immigrants.


You're Fired! Donald Trump, No Child Left Behind, And The Limits Of Dissonant Leadership In Education, Andrea Kayne Kaufman Jul 2005

You're Fired! Donald Trump, No Child Left Behind, And The Limits Of Dissonant Leadership In Education, Andrea Kayne Kaufman

Journal of Women in Educational Leadership

In Part I of this article, I explain the theory of Primal Leadership and Dissonant Leadership (Goleman, Boyatzis, & McKee, 2002). In Part II, I enunciate the ways in which key No Child Left Behind Act provisions encourage and, in some cases, mandate that schools utilize Dissonant Leadership strategies. In Part III, I explain why the Dissonant Leadership strategies espoused by the No Child Left Behind Act undermine the purported purposes of the statute. In Part IV, I consider the ability of an education statute to mandate or encourage Primal Leadership strategies.


Women In Athletic Leadership, Sandra L. Moore, Suzanne L. Gilmour, Mary P. Kinsella Jul 2005

Women In Athletic Leadership, Sandra L. Moore, Suzanne L. Gilmour, Mary P. Kinsella

Journal of Women in Educational Leadership

Despite significant increased participation opportunities for girls and women in sports following the passage of Title IX, women remain underrepresented in secondary athletic leadership roles. Thirty-eight female and 158 male high school athletic directors responded to a 19-item Athletic Director Survey (ADS) designed to elicit information on the following: position attainment factors, attainment and retention barriers, perceptions of similar or different barriers for women and men, leadership and management skills, personal sacrifices, and strengthening female candidacy for athletic directorships. Results indicate· the importance of mentoring and networking in providing women with equal access to athletic leadership positions.

George C. Marshall And The "Squeakings Of Democracy", Larry I. Bland Jul 2005

George C. Marshall And The "Squeakings Of Democracy", Larry I. Bland

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

Given the all-pervasive nature of World War II's impact on American society, scores of socio-cultural history topics might profitably be studied using the published papers of U.S. Army Chief of Staff George Catlett Marshall. Examples of the kinds of issues Marshall had to deal with include where, how, and with what the United States should fight; the role of women in the war effort; racial segregation and social mores in the army and surrounding its camps; who was required to fight, why they did so, and what they got out of doing it; who was permitted to become an officer; …

More Than "Rum, Buggery, And The Lash": Social History In American Naval Documents, Michael J. Crawford

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

This essay, however, charts a course to some neglected aspects of the social history of the American sailing navy and urges social historians to cruise in less frequented seas. These aspects include: women; hygiene; patronage of officers toward warrant and petty officers and ratings; and the life-course of warrant and petty officers.

Going Through The Trash: Meaning In The Cabaret And Cabinet Baroque Lyric, Russell J. Ganim Jun 2005

Going Through The Trash: Meaning In The Cabaret And Cabinet Baroque Lyric, Russell J. Ganim

Department of Modern Languages and Literatures: Faculty Publications

Joan DeJean's recent book, The Reinvention of Obscenity, brings front and center issues of filth and impiety as they relate to cultural norms. DeJean's assertion that "Paris was the center for the production of dirty books and dirty pictures” in the Early Modern period underscores the extent to which obscene literature becomes a cultural referent, either open or clandestine. While her focus is on obscenity as it relates to the neo- Classical era, DeJean emphasizes that the Baroque period also contributed to the "reinvention" of smut that characterized a distinct element of literary and artistic production during the seventeenth …


Reading Deuteronomy In The Second Temple Period, Sidnie White Crawford Apr 2005

Reading Deuteronomy In The Second Temple Period, Sidnie White Crawford

Department of Classics and Religious Studies: Faculty Publications

The book of Deuteronomy was one of the most popular religious texts in the Second Temple period. The finds from the Judean Desert present us with a wealth of manuscripts of Deuteronomy from the late Second Temple period, and the literature of Second Temple Judaism attests to the importance of Deuteronomy in Jewish thought in the period, quoting, alluding, and reusing the text in numerous ways. This paper presents some of the evidence for the popularity of Deuteronomy through a look at some of the texts found in the caves at Qumran. It begins with manuscripts of Deuteronomy itself, then …


Review Of Christine Peters, Patterns Of Piety: Women, Gender And Religion In Late Medieval And Refomation England, Carole Levin Apr 2005

Review Of Christine Peters, Patterns Of Piety: Women, Gender And Religion In Late Medieval And Refomation England, Carole Levin

Department of History: Faculty Publications

Peters has written an important book about religion in late medieval and early modern England. Her discussion of the implications for women and gender in the transition in England from Catholicism to Protestantism is ingenious, thoughtful, and elegant. It is thoroughly researched and beautifully written. Peters questions the assumption that the loss of the Virgin Mary was a blow to women's status, arguing that Protestantism is not an alien environment for women because of the model of the frail Christian as a woman devoted to Christ. Rather than seeing the decisive moment for women's involvement being the break with Rome, …


Readings In Place: Recent Publications In Southwestern Literature And Studies, Thomas Lynch Apr 2005

Readings In Place: Recent Publications In Southwestern Literature And Studies, Thomas Lynch

Department of English: Faculty Publications

The "Southwest" is nearly always defined along the intersection of two axes, one cultural and the other natural. Certain characteristics of these two axes are obvious in the six works considered here. Culturally, the region is most distinguished from the rest of the US by the existence of two enduring ethnic communities, the indigenous and the Hispanic, with the presence of the Mexican border exerting a powerful influence. In very different ways, Molly H. Mullin’s Culture in the Market Place: Gender, Art, and Value in the American Southwest, Audrey Goodman’s Translating Southwestern Landscapes: The Making of an Anglo Literary …

Archival Code-Breaking: The Editor's Dilemma, Candace Falk Apr 2005

Archival Code-Breaking: The Editor's Dilemma, Candace Falk

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

I became the editor of the Emma Goldman Papers while I was writing Love, Anarchy, and Emma Goldman-a biography in which the first codes broken were those of decorum. There was a kind of steamy delight on that day when I realized that the secret language in her love letters-the "m's", the "tb", and the "w" -were not the Yiddish words I imagined them to be, nor the clandestine political messages, but a playful way to dodge the Comstock law against sending obscenity through the mail. Sizzling epistles went back and forth between Emma Goldman and Ben Reitman, a man …


Sanitized For Your Protection: Editing Classified Documents, Daun Van Ee Apr 2005

Sanitized For Your Protection: Editing Classified Documents, Daun Van Ee

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

I started having second thoughts about giving a paper on the subject of working with classified documents almost as soon as I agreed to do it. In the first place, I'm not editing classified documents-or any kind of documents, for that matter-now. I used to, though: for over a quarter of a century I edited the papers of Dwight David Eisenhower at Johns Hopkins University. My duties there included handling all matters of classification and declassification, as well as physical, personnel, and information security.

Four years ago, as we were proofreading the index for the final set of Eisenhower volumes, …

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

With publication of the official records and debates completed in the first fourteen volumes of The Documentary History of the First Federal Congress, the editors have turned to the final series-the publication of letters concerning the activities that surrounded the first Congress. The three current volumes cover Congress's first session, March to November 1789. From the more than 13,000 documents that have been collected for this series, letters have been chosen for publication that throw light on the working of both houses, that describe the social and political views of the members, incoming letters that express cogent views and inform …

Review Of The Texts From The Judaean Desert: Indices And An Introduction To The Discoveries In The Judaean Desert Series, By Emanuel Tov Et Al., Sidnie White Crawford Mar 2005

Review Of The Texts From The Judaean Desert: Indices And An Introduction To The Discoveries In The Judaean Desert Series, By Emanuel Tov Et Al., Sidnie White Crawford

Department of Classics and Religious Studies: Faculty Publications

As the official publication process for the texts from the Judaean Desert, or the Dead Sea Scrolls, has drawn to a close, Emanuel Tov, the Editor-in-Chief of the project, has prepared a volume meant to serve as an introduction to and a guide through the series Discoveries in the Judaean Desert. Such a volume is necessary given the complicated nature and protracted time span of the series. The first volume was published in 1955, while the last one to contain original editions was just published in 2005. Eight volumes were written in French, the other thirty-one in English. Four different …


Creating Kearny: Forging A Historical Identity For A Central Arizona Mining Community, Douglas Seefeldt Mar 2005

Creating Kearny: Forging A Historical Identity For A Central Arizona Mining Community, Douglas Seefeldt

Department of History: Faculty Publications

The town of Kearny, located on the north bank of the Gila River between Hayden and Superior on State Highway 177, scarcely seems out of the ordinary. A forty-year-old development nestled high in the copper-rich hills of east-central Arizona, the small community boasts the usual schools, shops, churches, and a public monument to its namesake. The monument, a simple cairn-like stone structure with a bronze plaque affixed to one side, commemorates the significant military achievements of Brevet Maj. Gen. Stephen Watts Kearny, who is best remembered for leading part of the Army of the West through the region on his …


Oñate’S Foot: Histories, Landscapes, And Contested Memories In The Southwest, Douglas Seefeldt Mar 2005

Oñate’S Foot: Histories, Landscapes, And Contested Memories In The Southwest, Douglas Seefeldt

Department of History: Faculty Publications

In Alcade, New Mexico, in January 1998, the right foot of a bronze statue of Don Juan de Oñate (c. 1550-1626; known as “the last conquistador”) was removed by “vandals” in an effort to counterbalance the upcoming 400th anniversary of his settlement by dramatizing his infamous order to cut off the right foot of 24 Acoma Pueblo prisoners in 1599.

While Oñate's colonization of the American Southwest as an actual event is long since past, controversies surrounding its interpretation continue to occur because publicly articulated views of the past remain contested so long as dfferent groups remember different pasts and …
