New Diversity Publishing Outlet: Adult Educators Overcome Exclusionary Policies , Keith B. Armstrong
Different Perspectives on Majority Rules: 9th Annual Conference (2004)
Research strongly supports the notion that publishing houses lack sufficient diversity in both high and middle-level staff members to allow for a diverse philosophical outlook and appreciation to fairly support underrepresented groups wishing to publish their research findings in multiculturalism, gender/sexual orientations studies, race and class. Resultantly, these biases confront both adult educators and other authors writing in the areas of social justice and diversity. This presentation will investigate the historical factors of exclusion in the publishing industry, and more specifically within university presses, to explain an initiative (praxis) launched to open access by way of creating a progressively new …

Parents, faculty, and staff have preached the importance of the student's first year in college. Critical as this time is, many students view their freshman year as a time to experience everything that they can get involved in that is associated with college life. Unfortunately, some of these experiences are not as productive and can lead to a difficult first year which they will constantly battle the rest of their college days.

Why Don't They Stay? Exploring Supervisors' Level Of Intercultural Sensitivity And Employee Perceptions Of Fairness In The Workplace, Gina S. Matkin
Different Perspectives on Majority Rules: 9th Annual Conference (2004)
"My supervisor is nice, but she/he just doesn't understand me!" This statement may help explain some of the mixed success for predominantly white workplaces in retaining people of color. This presentation outlines a dissertation study exploring the relationship between intercultural sensitivity of leaders, and followers' ratings of workplace fairness. Demographic similarity or difference between supervisor and supervisee will also be considered as a moderating variable. Findings may help us to better understand how workplace relationships impact issues related to retention.

This workshop will present the quantitative findings of a study aimed at assessing what impact (1) traditional historical misinformation, and (2) the substitution of that information with revisionist history has on the perspectives of college pre-service and in-service education majors. In particular, we will investigate the impact James Lowen's "Lies My Teacher Told Me" has on that learning. The session will benefit educators and trainers who teach history and human and race relations courses.

The Welcome Theory: An Explanation For The Decreasing Number Of African Americans In Baseball, David C. Ogden
The Welcome Theory: An Explanation For The Decreasing Number Of African Americans In Baseball, David C. Ogden
Different Perspectives on Majority Rules: 9th Annual Conference (2004)
The percentage of African Americans on the rosters of major league baseball teams is at a 30-year low, while the percentage of Caucasian players in the major leagues has remained relatively stable. Research indicates that the number of African Americans will continue to drop. The Welcome Theory uses several theoretical perspectives to explore why African Americans have turned away from baseball and embraced other sports, such as basketball. The theory has implications for designing sports programs that socialize youth into sports.

Rap Music And Hip Hop On Amerian College Campuses, Earnest Bracey

My session will cover how many young African Americans believe that Rap music and Hip Hop is more important and relevant today on college campuses than the Civil Rights movement, or learning about the great works'.

An Ongoing Relationship With Theory Inside The Structures Of Tenure Track, Kwakiutl Dreher, Harriet Mcleod, Gary K. Perry
Different Perspectives on Majority Rules: 9th Annual Conference (2004)
This panel asks how can junior faculty of color at a predominantly white research I institution stay versed and acquire new insights about theoretical principles? Tenure-track faculty are aware of expectations to produce scholarship, teach, and provide service worthy of tenure. But when, where, and more significant, with whom can the ongoing relationship with theory occur? What are the benefits of a community that has been developed to facilitate the dialogue on theory? Of paramount concern, how can the dialogues count towards tenure?

Still Not The Stars: African Americans As Social Minorities In Television Advertising , Karie L. Hollerbach, Walter B. Jaehnig
Different Perspectives on Majority Rules: 9th Annual Conference (2004)
Advertising can either provoke or prevent cultural change. It articulates ideas about social class, cultural values. and societal power. African Americans are still being presented in television advertising as members of social minorities who are less likely to speak, to assume positions of authority, or to personify dominant middle class values in America.
Individual And Social Influences On Ethnic Identity Among Latino Young Adults, Lenna L. Ontai-Grzebik, Marcela Raffaelli
Individual And Social Influences On Ethnic Identity Among Latino Young Adults, Lenna L. Ontai-Grzebik, Marcela Raffaelli
Department of Psychology: Faculty Publications
Building on prior Latino ethnic identity research, this study had three goals: describe age-related trends in ethnic identity among young adults, examine relations among ethnic identity and individual factors, and explore the impact of family and peer socialization on ethnic identity. The participants (two hundred 19-to 30-year-olds; mean age = 22.5) completed self-report surveys sent to Latino undergraduate and graduate students enrolled in four midwestern institutions of higher education. The findings suggest individual factors are strong predictors of ethnic identity during early adulthood; respondents who were younger, high on Latino orientation, spent more time in the United States, and whose …
Patterns In Time And Space: Technologies Of Transfer And The Cultural Transmission Of Mathematical Knowledge Across The Indian Ocean, Carol Bier
Textile Research Works
This article explores the potential role of textiles in the transfer of mathematical knowledge from the Indian subcontinent to the central Islamic lands and west- ward to an emerging modern Europe through an inquiry into prospective tech- nologies of textile manufacture and pattern-making. Ikat textiles of the ninth and tenth centuries, found in Egypt but presumed to be from Yemen, serve as a means to explore possibilities of numeration and treatment of the spatial dimension. An initial attempt is made to separate patterning from the technology of textile pro- duction in an effort to treat the mathematical possibilities that patterning …
Mathematical Aspects Of Oriental Carpets, Carol Bier
Mathematical Aspects Of Oriental Carpets, Carol Bier
Textile Research Works
When one looks at an Oriental carpet in the context of Western art, one usually perceives a richness of colors and patterns, and perhaps the contrast between central field and surrounding borders. A careful observer might notice the appearance of superimposed plane patterns in the central field and multiple linear patterns in the surrounding borders. Each of patterns, whether in the field or the borders, is composed of various design elements, which in combination are repeated according to the principles of symmetry, often with the addition of symmetry-breaking (Bier 1992, 1997, 1998, 2000a). The mathematical principles of pattern making according …

The house offers a plethora of educational opportunities, for which its full potential has not yet been tapped. A new …
