Reed Leadership Student Essay Contest Winners
In response to the essay prompt: "If you knew you could not fail as a leader, what would you attempt to do for Jesus?"
By the end of elementary school, I knew two things about my life. I wanted to be a nurse, and God wanted me to be a missionary.

If I knew I could not fail as a leader and if I had God’s blessing, I would …

Antioch University Full-Text Dissertations & Theses
Organizational culture is defined as a system of shared meaning held by members of an organization that distinguishes it from other organizations. How organizational culture is experienced in the public sector, particularly local health departments (LHDs), is not well understood.

I used a modified organizational culture survey tool, the Organizational Management Survey, to quantify organizational culture and determine whether an LHD's organizational culture helps explain variations in childhood immunization coverage rates. In addition, qualitative data from an earlier study of LHD immunization staff …

Urban Indian Perspectives Of Traditional Indian Medicine, Annette Squetimkin-Anquoe
Antioch University Full-Text Dissertations & Theses
American Indians (AI) represent two percent of the United States population with over five hundred and sixty federally recognized tribes. In comparison to mainstream society AI show disparate rates for a number of health conditions. While some AI use traditional forms of medicine and healing practices that encompass mind-body-spirit approaches, studies conducted on the topic of Traditional Indian Medicine (TIM) among American Indians are sparse. Considering the fact that two thirds of the entire AI population currently lives in urban areas, it is timely to learn more about how TIM is seen by them. The purpose of this study was …
