The Function Of Division I In The Life And Program Of Taylor University, Milo A. Rediger

Milo Rediger Writings & Addresses

In the light of prevailing world conditions, the problems suggested by the topic of the paper are far greater than the writer's capacity to solve them or even to discuss them adequately. Proposals for thought or action presented herein are made for the purpose of stimulating and (hopefully) clarifying our thinking relative to the challenging situation that confronts us now on Taylor's campus. I shall attempt to discuss the topic in terms of the need for a religious emphasis, and then the academic and the extra-curricular aspects of meeting this need.

Tower Topics: Honor And Honors (Article For The Echo), Milo A. Rediger

Milo Rediger Writings & Addresses

In the Taylor program the honor principle is very important, both in our academic life and in the social and spiritual phases of our living.

Now I would like to emphasize "honors." The honors program has both formal and informal aspects.

The Religious Program Of The Liberal Arts College, Milo A. Rediger

Milo Rediger Writings & Addresses

It was not indicated whether I was expected to describe it as it is, define it as it ought to be, discuss its function, or attempt to outline its content. This gives me a wide range and a great deal of freedom, and this is consistent with both the religious and the liberal arts phases of the title. I shall try to establish a frame of reference in an introductory way and then discuss three or four aspects of the subject which my combine something of description, definition, function and content.

When Are Absences "Cuts?", Milo A. Rediger

Milo Rediger Writings & Addresses

In relation to a student's use of class "cuts" and a teacher's attitude toward them, both are really "on their honor." The policy statement which appears in both the catalog and the student handbook sets forth principles which represent the intention and the spirit of the regulations.

When Are We Spiritual Enough?, Milo A. Rediger

Milo Rediger Writings & Addresses

When are human beings as spiritual as they ought to be? Well, of course, we are fundamentally spiritual in our very constitution and nature. This suggests that spiritual considerations are extremely important to us functionally -- in our attitudes, our contacts, our relationships. The absence of sensitivity to this dimension of life is one of the serious deficiencies of our time.

Why Not Say "A"?, Milo A. Rediger

Milo Rediger Writings & Addresses

Clear thinking is hard work, especially when you go out into the world where the dust of commerce and confusion never settles. It is important, though not easy, to see clearly what are the issues and to determine courses of action relative to them.

Positive, thoughtful and dedicated living in Christ's way is the answer for our time. To be sure, this is different from the thinking of the secular world, but it appeals to, and challenges, the best blood and brains. It is now yours to apply what you have learned and to continue the education that was started …

How Orientation Programs At West Virginia Community Colleges Affect Mid-Level Administrators' Perceptions Of Adjunct Faculty Quality, Gina M. Taylor

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

The purpose of this descriptive study was to explore the relationship between the presence of orientation programs for adjunct faculty at West Virginia community and technical colleges and mid-level administrators’ perceptions of adjunct faculty quality. Using data obtained through an Internet-based questionnaire administered to 91 mid-level administrators at West Virginia community and technical colleges, the study resulted in several notable findings, many of which reinforced similar findings uncovered in the review of the literature. Most researchers agree that the results of high-quality orientation programs can be a tremendous asset to adjunct faculty, leading to an adjunct group that knows what …

What Is A Christian College?, Milo A. Rediger

Milo Rediger Writings & Addresses

What is a Christian college? If it is Christian, it is a good college; it cannot be Christian and condone either inferiority or mediocrity -- it emphasizes excellence or it should not be dignified with the name Christian. It cannot accept all of the young people of a given denomination just because the churches of that denomination support it with finances. Suitability of students is one of the five major concerns of a Christian college.

Goals, procedures, teachers, students, and the college image are the focal points of this presentation.

Start To Finish: Examining The Impact Of The El Dorado Promise Program On Postsecondary Outcomes, Elise Swanson, Gary Ritter

Journal of Student Financial Aid

The El Dorado Promise program is a universal, first dollar Promise program that guarantees a full tuition scholarship to students who attend the El Dorado School District from grades K-12, and a partial scholarship for those enrolled for at least 9^th through 12^th grade. We use a difference-in-differences framework to examine the impact of the El Dorado Promise program on college enrollment and bachelor’s degree completion. We find that, overall, the Promise was associated with a 14.0 percentage point increase in postsecondary enrollment, no change in associate’s degree completion, and an 8.8 percentage point increase in bachelor’s degree …

The Timeliness Of Honors Contracts, Shirley Shultz Myers, Geoffrey Whitebread

National Collegiate Honors Council Monographs: Chapters

With roots in a tutorial educational approach introduced by the ancient Greeks and made famous at Oxford and Cambridge, honors contracts in the United States emerged as tutorial arrangements in the late nineteenth century. Early honors programs at Harvard and other universities sought to counter an emphasis on practical training in US higher education after the Civil War with more flexible programs of study, small seminars, and tutorials (Capuana 21–25; Wolken; Repko et al. 28). This curricular reform spanned disciplines and responded to two key changes in education: the late-nineteenth-century growth of graduate education, particularly in the sciences, modeled on …

Curriculum Gone Bad: The Case Against Honors Contracts, Richard Badenhausen

National Collegiate Honors Council Monographs: Chapters

This volume offers a timely and much-needed discussion, for in spite of their apparent ubiquity across the honors landscape, contracts are not a feature of honors education that has received much attention. For example, the National Collegiate Honors Council’s (NCHC) “Basic Characteristics of a Fully Developed Honors Program” and its companion statement on honors colleges—documents meant to guide colleges and universities in curricular innovation, engaged pedagogy, and intentional learning—make no mention of contracts. Additionally, NCHC’s 2016 Census of U.S. Honors Programs and Colleges, which captured qualities of 408 responding member institutions, asked over a dozen questions about curricular features of …
