Crashing The Hedges: The Road To The Integration Of The University Of Georgia, Grace London Jan 2015

Crashing The Hedges: The Road To The Integration Of The University Of Georgia, Grace London

The Corinthian

When Charlayne Hunter arrived on the University of Georgia’s campus on January 9, 1961, a hostile but not overtly violent crowd greeted her. While Hunter’s situation was not ideal, in no way did it compare to the animosity and even brutality that other African American students had experienced trying to integrate into other segregated universities in the Southeast. In her autobiography, In My Place, Hunter-Gault describes only one obstruction to her registration process, and unlike the case of other African American students before her, this obstruction was not a result of antics from crowds thronging the university’s campus or …


La Dualidad De Ernesto “Che” Guevara: Un Análisis De Sus Filosofías Médicas Y Revolucionarias, Carolyn Underwood Jan 2015

La Dualidad De Ernesto “Che” Guevara: Un Análisis De Sus Filosofías Médicas Y Revolucionarias, Carolyn Underwood

The Corinthian

Nelson Mandela, el primer presidente elegido democráticamente en Sudáfrica, visitó Cuba el 26 de julio de 1991 para el trigésimo octavo aniversario del comienzo de la revolución cubana. Dio un discurso comentando sobre su alta opinión sobre Ernesto Guevara: “The life of Che is an inspiration to all human beings who cherish freedom. We will always honor his memory” (“Speech by Nelson Mandela at the Rally in Cuba”). Por otro lado, Felix Rodriguez, el agente cubano de la CIA quien guió la misión de matar a Ernesto Guevara en octubre de 1967, rechazó esta interpretación reclamando: “Most people don’t know …


Écrivains Provocateurs Pendant La Révolution Française: Olympe De Gouges, Madame De Staël, Et La Rhétorique De La Droite Politique, Will Little Jan 2015

Écrivains Provocateurs Pendant La Révolution Française: Olympe De Gouges, Madame De Staël, Et La Rhétorique De La Droite Politique, Will Little

The Corinthian

Pendant la révolution de 1789, de nombreux changements sociaux, politiques, et intellectuels ont eu lieu. Au début, les hommes étaient de la partie dominante de la révolution, mais il y avait une forte voix féminines dans la révolution. La Déclaration des Droits de la Femme et du Citoyen par Olympe de Gouge et De la Littérature Considérée dans ses Rapports avec les institutions sociales par Germaine de Staël sont deux textes importants qui symbolisent cette voix. Sans nombreux droits naturels sous l’absolutisme et les premières années de la révolution dominées par les hommes, les femmes écrivains français étaient les vraies …


Se Habla Español: The Health Disparity Among The Latino Population, Karen Paz Jan 2015

Se Habla Español: The Health Disparity Among The Latino Population, Karen Paz

The Corinthian

Latinos are considered the fastest growing and the largest ethnic minority group in the United States. It is estimated that by 2050, 24% of the U.S. population will be Latino. According to Census data, approximately 18% of the U.S. population age five or older speaks a language other than English at home, and current projections continue to show increases in U.S. immigrant and second-language groups nationwide. About half of that population self-reported that they speak English less than “very well.” Members of this population are referred to as individuals with limited English proficiency (LEP). As the largest ethnic minority, 28 …


La Otra Frontera: Exiles, Engineering, And State Power In The Chiapan Borderlands, Aaron Margolis Jan 2015

La Otra Frontera: Exiles, Engineering, And State Power In The Chiapan Borderlands, Aaron Margolis

Open Access Theses & Dissertations

This Dissertation examines the political, cultural, and economic history of the Chiapan borderlands from its political incorporation into the post-independence Mexican state in 1821 until the arrival of Guatemalan refugees in the 1980's. This history is explored through the directives, interactions, and policies of officials from Mexico City as the borderlands drifted in and out of the orbit of the priorities of the changing governments of independent Mexico.

A large part of the Dissertation examines how the post-revolutionary Mexican state re-discovered and conceptualized the borderlands as a both a threat to national security and a potential site of energy derived …


Investigating English Teachers' Perceptions Of Intercultural Communicative Competence In The Kingdom Of Saudi Arabia, Hazem Ahmed Osman Jan 2015

Investigating English Teachers' Perceptions Of Intercultural Communicative Competence In The Kingdom Of Saudi Arabia, Hazem Ahmed Osman

Doctoral Dissertations

This mixed-method study examines the perceptions of Intercultural Communicative Competence (ICC) by English teachers in the Preparatory Year (PY) program at King Saudi University. Studies that aim to investigate teachers’ perception of ICC and its implementation in a foreign language classroom are relatively scarce. Additionally, the majority of the studies that generally targeted the concept of ICC in a foreign-language learning context were studies that either relied on online blogs, discussion forums, and chat rooms to allow students to communicate cross-culturally, or examined ICC development during sojourns or study abroad periods in the target country. Relatively fewer studies have addressed …


Losing Hope: Mental Health And Religious Service Non-Attendance In Australia, Edward Kyle Waters, Helena Mary Millard, Zelda Doyle Jan 2015

Losing Hope: Mental Health And Religious Service Non-Attendance In Australia, Edward Kyle Waters, Helena Mary Millard, Zelda Doyle

Health Sciences Papers and Journal Articles

Religious beliefs and practices are related to mental health. Many individuals report a religious affiliation, but do not have specific religious beliefs or practices such as attending religious services. These non-attendees are often assumed to resemble the non-religious, but are poorly studied. This study explored the demographic characteristics and mental health outcomes associated with being a non-attendee using data from a nationally representative Australian sample. Non-attendees were more likely to be non-Christian than attendees at religious services. They had worse mental health than both non-religious individuals and attendees, especially compared to the non-religious. Whether non-attendance is a result of or …


Ridazz, Wrenches, And Wonks: A Revolution On Two Wheels Rolls Into Los Angeles, Donald Parker Strauss Jan 2015

Ridazz, Wrenches, And Wonks: A Revolution On Two Wheels Rolls Into Los Angeles, Donald Parker Strauss

Antioch University Dissertations & Theses

How can we make cities more livable? Los Angeles, in particular, is a notably challenging place to live. For many, it is hard to see Los Angeles—city or county—as anything other than a huge, sprawling, and some would say placeless place. Los Angeles is known by many as the place that tore up more than 1,000 miles of streetcar lines to make way for millions of cars and hundreds of miles of freeways. Because of this, Los Angeles is also known for its poor air quality and jammed freeways. Those who live in Los Angeles know that it can be …

The Puzzling Plurals In Philemon, Ernie Bursey Jan 2015

The Puzzling Plurals In Philemon, Ernie Bursey

Journal of Applied Christian Leadership

"this passionate appeal for Philemon to welcome his slave as a brother in the Lord explains Paul’s intention to include the members of the house church in the reading of the letter. If Paul’s efforts are successful in helping Philemon to embrace Onesimus as a brother in the Lord, that welcome will also need to be extended to him by the other brothers and sisters in the Lord in the little house church that met in Philemon’s house."


Collaboration In Delivering The Adventist Health Message In China: A Single Case Study, James Wu Jan 2015

Collaboration In Delivering The Adventist Health Message In China: A Single Case Study, James Wu

Journal of Applied Christian Leadership

"the Adventist health message has been shared in many different ways by various institutions of the church. However, rarely is there collaboration across multiple organizations. This article describes how hospitals, universities and church entities worked together to reach the community with healthy lifestyle options. Basically the collaboration worked through four foundational activities: sharing of resources, training of health workers, operating lifestyle centers, and using the existing union governance structure. the collaboration provided outreach services in the following ways: lifestyle programs, wellness expo, health and gospel evangelism, mass media, and cooperation with NGOs."
