21st Century Church Leadership And Pastor Preparation, Veronica Abney
21st Century Church Leadership And Pastor Preparation, Veronica Abney
Scholar Week 2016 - present
This study examined 21st-century American churches and the pastors who lead them to determine whether those pastors who attended seminaries, traditional universities, or denominational institutions were more academically prepared to grow church membership, increase weekly attendance, retain members, manage high-impact leadership teams, and engage in local church formation than were pastors who did not attend or complete any academic institution. The researcher examined the academic completion levels, leadership and church growth characteristics, and professional training of the participating pastors from six broadly defined categories: (a) pastors who participated in the 2014-2015 Outreach/LifeWay magazine survey; (b) pastors who participated in …
A Descriptive Study Investigating Accounting Students' Job Selection Preferences, Richard Wesley
A Descriptive Study Investigating Accounting Students' Job Selection Preferences, Richard Wesley
Scholar Week 2016 - present
Many accounting students are selecting accounting audit firms without exhausting a thorough research about the firms or getting an idea of the firms’ expectation. Moreover, accounting firms are hiring students without getting a clear understanding of the students’ job selection preference. As a result, both the students and employers are finding a cultural mismatch. Often employers and students have different perspectives about the nature of the professional skills that are required for a successful accounting career. Once hired, many students soon leave because they become disillusioned with job-related realities. The value of this research adds to the body of research …

Emotional Intelligence: The Effect On Social Media Use, Interpersonal Violence, And Gender, Gail Grabczynski
Scholar Week 2016 - present
This study investigated the relationship between Emotional Intelligence (EI), social media use, interpersonal violence and gender. EI is a relatively new topic of research that has been of interest to many organizations due to the proposition that EI assists in the development of individuals. With the proliferation of social media, interpersonal violence and women in the workforce, a determination of a relationship between EI and those variables was warranted. The study was conducted at a small private Christian university. An online survey was administered to 123 sophomores. This study was a cross-sectional quantitative design, that utilized three established instruments to …

Comparison Of Illinois Individual Income Tax Amounts With Surrounding States--Who Wins, Who Loses?, Mark R. Williams
Comparison Of Illinois Individual Income Tax Amounts With Surrounding States--Who Wins, Who Loses?, Mark R. Williams
Scholar Week 2016 - present
In July 2017 the Illinois General Assembly essentially made permanent the 66 2/3% tax rate increase which was originally enacted in January 2011 but which had sunset after 2014. Since Illinois is a flat tax state, there were some who argued that the Illinois tax rate, even after the increase in 2011 and again in 2017, was lower than surrounding states implying that Illinois taxpayers were still relatively better off than residents of surrounding states. This study provides a brief history of the Illinois individual income tax. This study also compares the individual income tax amounts for Illinois and six …

Scholar Week 2016 - present
CDW Corporation, based in Lincolnshire, Illinois, has been in business for the past 30 years. Over the past five years, the company has gone public and acquired a United Kingdom-based company to expand its international commerce. As an IT re-seller and solution provider to small-, medium-, and large-sized businesses, CDW is able to create comparative advantages against its competition and increase market share. However, the increase in both scale and scope of its operations has come with a worrisome cost, added debt. As a result of our financial analysis for the suitability of an investment, our recommendation is to hold …

Evaluation And Revision Of Bsri Trait Selection, Valerie Seehafer
Scholar Week 2016 - present
The Bem Sex-Role Inventory (BSRI) is a tool created by Sandra Bem in the 1970’s aimed at measuring individual’s androgyny. Critiques concerning the theoretical and methodological framework suggest that it may be in need of an update. The purpose of my research was to determine if and what adjustments were needed for the BSRI. An adjusted version of the short form of the BSRI was distributed to undergraduate students on a small Christian university campus in the Midwest. Respondents rated traits from the BSRI in regards to social desirability, personal desirability, and gendered connotation. The results exhibited that three traits, …
Saving Olivet Money With Creation Care, Nicholas Boros
Saving Olivet Money With Creation Care, Nicholas Boros
Scholar Week 2016 - present
Universities throughout the United States are searching for ways to reduce overhead costs, to help combat rises in tuition costs. Typically, one would think that installing solar panels on campus to help generate electricity would cost Olivet money, especially since the University is located in the Midwest. While such an undertaking would require an upfront investment, we will discuss how solar panels could save the University as much as $500,000 to $800,000 per year after an approximate 10 year break even point. We will also briefly discuss how similar approaches could be applied to other businesses and homes for a …
