Masters Theses

Purpose

The purpose of this basic qualitative study was to identify existing themes in the lived experiences of five gay males who disclosed their sexuality to some or all of their fraternity brothers while still an undergraduate member. Interviews with the participants were conducted to identify (1) their perceptions of the environment within the fraternity in regard to sexuality, (2) coping strategies used to conceal their sexuality, (3) variables that facilitated coming-out to their fraternities, and ( 4) their approach to coming-out to their fraternities.

John Punshon's Reasons For Hope: The Faith And Future Of The Friends Church*: A Review, Arthur O. Roberts

Quaker Religious Thought

In 1969 Elton Trueblood attributed the forfeiture of values in our culture in part to academicians and looked for recovery from the Christian intellectual who “has access to both the reasons of the heart and the reasons of the head” (A Place to Stand, p. 31). Friend John Punshon is such a Christian intellectual. His Reasons for Hope is a tract for the times. In language hortatory as well as analytical the book tugs at heart and mind. I found myself pondering it prayerfully as well as reading it critically.

The Moral Emotions Of The Criminal Law, Stephen P. Garvey

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

Imagine you have committed a crime. You might experience any number of emotional responses to what you've done, ranging from self-satisfaction to self-disgust. But however you do feel, how should you feel? The question seems especially appropriate for a conference honoring Professor Herbert Morris and celebrating his work, for no one has shed light more on the moral emotions of the criminal law. The line of thought that follows owes Professor Morris a large and obvious debt.

So, once again, how should you feel when you have committed a criminal wrong? "Guilty" comes immediately to mind. But guilt is not …

Exploring Southern Opposition To The Morrill Land Grant Act Of 1862, Newton James Brooks Jr.

Theses and Dissertations

The Morrill Act of 1862, a land grant act, was instrumental in establishing an affordable system of colleges and universities. These institutions established under the act were schools that included the teaching of scientific agriculture and mechanical arts. This act was passed after a struggle with opposition led by the agricultural states of the South. After the secession of these states from the Union, Congress was finally able to pass this act, and it was signed into law July 2, 1862. This study categorized and explored the reasons why the southern agricultural states were so adamantly opposed to an act …

“Thou Art The Man” Newel K. Whitney In Ohio, Mark L. Staker

BYU Studies

In the early 1820s, Newel K. Whitney set up his first store in Kirtland, Ohio, in a little log cabin (fig.1). From such humble beginnings he created a thriving business that would later become central to the early history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. However, over time the holdings and contributions of the Whitney family in Kirtland were largely forgotten. It was in Kirtland where Joseph Smith arrived and reportedly said to Whitney, whom the Prophet had never met before, "Thou art the man."

“Save The Emigrants” Joseph Clewes On The Mountain Meadows Massacre, Ronald W. Walker

BYU Studies

Occasionally a major, previously published document such as this one falls between the historical cracks and becomes virtually forgotten. Although Joseph Clewes's statement on the Mountain Meadows Massacre was published in 1877 and was widely discussed at the time, current scholars have made little or no use of it. Their omission is unfortunate.

Edward Partridge In Painesville, Ohio, Scott H. Partridge

BYU Studies

For a short period in the 1830s, the town of Painesville, Ohio, played an important part in the development of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The town was a place of success for Mormon missionaries; it was a religious battlefield in which the Campbellites resisted the encroachments of the missionaries; it was the home of the Painesville Telegraph, one of the most virulent critics of Mormonism; and, finally, it was the home of Edward Partridge, a man who would play a critical role as the first bishop of the Church (fig. 1).

The Christmas Tree And The Two Churches, Johannes V. Knudsen

The Bridge

Part of the Danish American heritage is the fact that there were, unfortunately, some believe, two separate Danish American Lutheran Church groups. Because of theological differences (and perhaps personality conflicts, as well) between these two groups, they remained separate entities from their complex beginnings in the latter half of the nineteenth century until mergers took place with a number of other ethnic Lutheran church groups in the early 1960s, culminating in the formation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America in 1988. The histories of and differences between the two synods, the American Evangelical Lutheran Church and the United Evangelical …

Images Of Slavery In The Early Church: Hatred Disguised As Love?, Kimberly Flint-Hamilton

Journal of Hate Studies

The Ardoyne neighborhood is not a place a tourist would want to visit. Its streets today are the front lines of what some would classify as a religious holy war, and are the regular backdrop for violent scenes of masked demonstrators, burning cars, and heavily armed soldiers and riot police. Guard towers, walls topped with barbed wire, armored cars, and helicopters are part of daily life in this area, but this neighborhood is not in the Middle East. Rather, it lies far to the north in Belfast, Northern Ireland, part of industrialized Western Europe. Here, row upon row of run-down …

Intra- And Inter-Religious Hate And Violence: A Psychosocial Model, Linda M. Woolf, Michael R. Hulsizer

Journal of Hate Studies

Hatred, discrimination, and violence in the name of religion are certainly not new phenomena, but rather date back through the historical record. The persecution of early Christians by the Romans and of Jews/Muslims during the Crusades are but two examples from history. Today, terrorist attacks in Israel, violence in Northern Ireland, ethnic conflict and genocide in the former Yugoslavia,and a host of other headlines remind us regularly that hatred and violence under the flag of religion still exist. However, for most individuals in the United States prior to September 11th, 2001, such violence was thought to occur primarily elsewhere on …

Engendering Hate Crime Policy: Gender, The "Dilemma Of Difference," And The Creation Of Legal Subjects, Valerie Jenness

Journal of Hate Studies

Nearly six years after two women were bound and gagged and had their throats slit while camping and hiking in Shenandoah National Park, U.S. Attorney General John D. Ashcroft held a historic nationally televised press conferenceon April 11, 2002 to announce that the U.S. Justice Department invoked the federal hate crimes statute for the first time to charge the alleged murderer with hate crime. In announcing the indictment, Ashcroft spoke at length about his meeting with the parents of the victims and about the lives and characters of the young women: two Midwesterners who migrated to New England, met and …

The Conquering Lion, Julian Aguon

Journal of Hate Studies

People have often asked me what I thought justice meant. I used to quote the rhetoric voiced by many leftists today across college campuses. Now I see that justice is a word that drips with sweat and blood. Studying the rich history of black women in America, I am compelled to look inward to see myself, and my own truths, and listen to my own stories, and to ground my journey as a cocreator of justice with integrity.

Becoming Evil: How Ordinary People Commit Genocide And Mass Killing, Steven K. Baum

Journal of Hate Studies

It used to be that if you wanted to examine the psychology of genocidal thinking, there were only a handful of writers from which to choose. Over the last decade solid psychological examinations have been offered by Erving Staub and Neil Kressel. Now there is a third, and this newest contender can be proud as his is the most comprehensive work offering the best understanding of why we as a species hate so effectively.

The Pope Against The Jews: The Vatican's Role In The Rise Of Modern Anti-Semitism, Steven K. Baum

Journal of Hate Studies

Rome has had a lot of apologizing and explaining to do lately. Added to the growing list of assaults, sex scandals, and indignities is the Catholic Church’s long-standing love-hate relationship with the Jews. In a nation that bore the first Jewish ghettoes, made Jews wear identity badges, forbade them to develop relations with Christians in marriage, commerce, land ownership and living quarters, Vatican politics and policy and legendary denial should not come as any surprise.

Latinos In Revere, Massachusetts, Daniel W. Vasquez

Gastón Institute Publications

Census 2000 data include changes in the way people were counted. The most significant change is to allow persons to select more than one race, creating a new multiracial category of “two or more races,” but meaning people may not be included in the race with which they most identify. There was, however, no way to choose more than one ethnicity; one must choose either Latino or not. Throughout this profile, numbers reflect Latinos of all races, or non-Latinos by race, with persons of two or more races counted separately. All categorizations are based solely on self-identification. All of this …
