Public Policy And The Missing Link: A Progress Report On The Design And Implementation Of The Massachusetts Linked Deposit Program, Jim T. Campen

John M. McCormack Graduate School of Policy and Global Studies Publications

The idea underlying the Massachusetts Linked Deposit Program (LDP), which has been operated by the Treasurer since 1978, is that a portion of the money in the state's General Fund is deposited in Massachusetts banks, with the amounts awarded to individual banks linked to their performance in serving the people and communities of Massachusetts. Bidding banks must offer a required minimum interest rate and must furnish specific information on the composition of their loan and investment portfolios. This information is used to compute a "linked deposit score" for each bank, which provides a basis for linking the awarding of public …

The Trail Of Education In Two Cities: Omaha And Manila, Navidad T. Nacianceno, Floyd T. Waterman

Publications

Never, perhaps, in the history of local communities has the educational system been recognized openly as being interwoven with the community as it is now. In individuals' aspiration, for better lives and as a primary component of the equation of education and community, education is viewed as an avenue of promise. There can be no doubt of its universal acceptance as the key to the most fervently desired goals, security for the future and an understanding of self and others.

The Relationship Between Personality Characteristics And Job Satisfaction Of Secondary Marketing Education Teachers, Connie Kay Staehr Plessman

Department of Agricultural Leadership, Education and Communication: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Scholarship

The purpose of this study was to (1) determine the personality characteristics of secondary marketing teachers, and (2) to examine the relationship between personality characteristics and selected demographic and attitudinal variables with job satisfaction (intrinsic, extrinsic, and general) of marketing teachers. A random sample of 475 marketing teachers was drawn from the membership of the national Marketing Education Association; responses were received from 73 percent of the marketing teachers surveyed. Two instruments, the Myers-Briggs Personality Indicator and the Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire, were combined with attitudinal and demographic questions for use in data collection. Eight null hypotheses were proposed to investigate …

Municipal Utility Rates In Tennessee, Ken Joines

MTAS Publications: Full Publications

This publication is primarily the compiled results of surveys sent to the cities in Tennessee. Electric rate information was supplied by the Tennessee Valley Authority and population figures were taken from the 1985 Certified Population of Tennessee Incorporated Municipalities. Approximately, one-hundred and thirty cities responded in part or whole to the survey. If data from a city appears in one section but not another it indicates the city either does not provide that service or information was not included in the survey response for some other reason. The data is divided into five major utility areas: Water; Sewer; Natural Gas; …

Estimated Resources Available For Financing A Nebraska Housing Trust Fund, David R. Dimartino, R. K. Piper

Publications

One part of determining the feasibility of a Housing Trust Fund in Nebraska is to estimate the resources available for such a fund. This analysis of available resources focused on four separate sources of potential funding--earnings on sales escrow deposits, earnings on mortgage escrow accounts, earnings on rental security deposits, and earnings from transfer taxes. All figures are based on prevailing practices in Nebraska, and ranges of potential funding are offered because of the use of varying rates of return (interest rates).

Beyond Severe Disabilities: National Approaches And Networking Guide, Floyd T. Waterman, Carole Davis, Lois S. Rood

Publications

As we studied these programs, it became clear to us that most of these programs have some intrinsic values and that it would not be practical or advisable for us to evaluate the programs, Instead of rating programs, we selected programs that met at least one of our ten critical factors for program selection, and many of them met several. Our decisions were also based on a desire to present a variety of programs, especially those that seemed to be appropriate for program planners in Nebraska.

We thought that it would be best to have program personnel describe their programs. …

Beyond Severe Disabilities: Nebraska Services Guides, Lois S. Rood

Publications

In Nebraska and elsewhere, individuals with disabilities should be receiving their education, vocational training, and employment in the same schools, training programs, businesses, and industries as individuals without disabilities, Generally, this requires some specific planning on the part of schools, generic job training programs, and employers. Such support may mean a minor modification in the environment, the acquisition of an aide, or financial assistance. By developing these support services, individuals with disabilities will not be limited to the few vocational opportunities offered by most segregated vocational workshops, but they will have access to a variety of career options.

Beyond Severe Disabilities: Models And Strategies For Changes, Lois S. Rood

Publications

This is a monograph about new careers for individuals that society has labeled disabled. It is not, however, about disabilities. Instead, it describes how society can effectively use the unique capabilities of each individual in the work place.

The principles outlined in this monograph could apply to any individual, not just those who have mental, physical, or emotional impairments. We believe that in the future successful career development will be the same for all individuals. Career planning which meets the needs of individuals with severe disabilities is presented as an alternative to the segregated workshop model of· the past.

Beyond Severe Disabilities: The Challenge Of Private Enterprise, Lois S. Rood, Carole Davis

Publications

Throughout the nation, most individuals with severe disabilities are unemployed and reside with their parents, or they are in institutions, segregated work activity centers, or sheltered workshops. Today, many youths leave public schools and find that vocational training or employment opportunities are not available.
