An Analysis Of The Application Of Dynamics To Jewelry Design, Eugene Kent Bahling

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

This thesis was undertaken to explore possible applications of various forms of dynamics to contemporary jewelry design. The purpose is (1) to isolate design shapes which illustrate five types of dynamics: (2) to present five pieces of jewelry designed and constructed for this study; (3) to describe in detail the techniques and processes used to complete each project: and (4) to analyze the use of dynamics in the design of each project.

The Analysis And Findings Of A Close And Objective Evaluation Of A Sample Of The Themes Used In The Pilot Phase Of A Recent Study, The Effectiveness Of College-Level Instruction In Freshman Composition, Donald Earl Fish

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

The hypothesis that students who do not take freshman composition courses in college are equal in writing performance to students who do take freshman composition after being in college for an equal length of time was tested in the pilot phase of a recent study, The Effectiveness of College-Level Instruction in Freshman Composition. The findings presented in an interim report affirm the hypothesis. Since the theme evaluations for the pilot study were done "holistically," it seemed desirable to determine whether a closer and more objective evaluation of a sample of the student themes used in the pilot study would indicate …

Economic Integration As A Tool Of Development In Central America., Walter John Phair

Latin American Studies ETDs

The underlying purpose of this paper is to analyze economic integration as & tool of development in Central America. To do so, it will be necessary to investigate not only the past performance of the Common Market and the chief problems presently being faced, but the prospects for future development as well. Attention will be focused primarily on the post-1960 period despite the fact that the movement toward union began in the early 1950 1 s. The reason for this is that 1960 marked the beginning of what might be called the "accelerated phase" of the region's integration. It was …

Reader's Guide To The Poetry Of JuliáN Del Casal, Esther Kay Whitt Nelson

Spanish and Portuguese ETDs

I have also included a brief synopsis of each poem and its metrical form. The Introduction has been provided to give the reader a general description of the poet's work and life in order to illuminate those subjective elements that might otherwise prove obscure. In the guide itself, each …

The Oppenheimer Case, Shelby Murray

Honors Theses

This paper is an attempt to understand the hearing of Dr. Julius Robert Oppenheimer in the light of the American state of mind. In doing so, I have considered only those events which helped to form that state of mind, or those persons who participated in the hearings. For this reason a great deal of material has not been included in the paper. I will not consider World War II nor the period following, except insofar as it is relevant to the hearing. Nor will I explore the McCarthy hearings. Only those areas of Oppenheimer's life which had a bearing …

The Sherman Adams Case, Jean A. Scott

Honors Theses

In my study of the events culminating in the resignation of Sherman Adams from the position of Assistant to the President in 1958, I have endeavored to deal with three factors: the Adams-Goldfine relationship studied by the Congressional committee, the politicians' reaction to the information disclosed there, and the position taken by national publications. I have included a brief statement of Adams' early life and his duties as Assistant to the President for background purposes, but otherwise, I have brought in material about the man himself or the Eisenhower administration only as it relates to the case.

Adams' contacts with …

The Role Of The United States In The Adolfo De La Huerta Rebellion, 1923-1924, William G. Best

History ETDs

Preface:

In December 1923 Adolfo de la Huerta led a rebellion against the government of President Alvaro Obregón. It lasted into the last three months of 1924 and culminated in the total defeat of the rebels. The United States at once came to the support of Obregón and sided his government with munitions shipments, an embargo on arms against the rebels, naval demonstrations aimed at frustrating the naval operations of the rebels, and diplomatic services and support.

The main focus of this study is the position and participation of the United States in the la Huerta rebellion. It is not …

Simone Weil's Search For Unity Through The Union Of Contradictories., Barbara J. Brim

Foreign Languages & Literatures ETDs

There is a good deal of modern literature particularly that of the post­ World War II period, which might be best described as “distorted” author deliberately focuses on some negative aspect of life, usually the sordid, and exaggerates it to an unbelievable nightmare. The author makes his point all too well. In fact, some of these works are masterpieces of human understanding. However, when one book after another presents the same negative theme, treated in the same way for a kind of shock effect, we begin to feel as though literature has as its sole aim a kind of psychological …

A Political Biography Of Frank A. Hubbell, 1862-1929., Carol N. Callary

History ETDs

Frank A. Hubbell was successful during his lifetime, both as an independent livestock grower and as a force in New Mexican political life from 1888 until 1929. Hubbell did not leave a permanent written record, a fact which has made the names of Miguel A. Otero, Holm O. Bursum, Thomas Benton Catron, W. H. Andrews and Harvey B. Fergusson better known. However, he was in many respects their equal in influence and in the achievement of political results. Hubbell was the product of both the Spanish and Anglo-American cultures and was thus able to combine the character of a rural …
