On The Academic Librarian Pay Disparity, Olivia Smith Schlinck Mar 2022

On The Academic Librarian Pay Disparity, Olivia Smith Schlinck

Library Staff Online Writings

Last month, I posted to this blog the results of my study comparing the salaries of tenure-track law professors and law librarians who teach required, credit-bearing classes. The reaction was overwhelming; clearly, the proof that law librarians were underpaid – something many librarians had assumed for many years – hit a chord within the profession. Librarians across the country contacted me publicly and privately to express their shock (or lack thereof), their frustration, their personal anecdotes about being underpaid and struggling to make ends meet. Eventually, this culminated in an event hosted by the AALL Research Crits Caucus on Monday, …

Settler Colonialism And The Movement Towards Indigenous Forest Sovereignty, Madison Zucco Mar 2022

Settler Colonialism And The Movement Towards Indigenous Forest Sovereignty, Madison Zucco

Honors Program: Senior Projects (Public)

This research paper examines the historical and political implications of settler colonialism on Indigenous nations in forested areas around the world. Through a thorough analysis of the Haida First Nation, Pacheedaht First Nation, and the Sámi people, it is argued that settler colonial legislation systematically and intentionally separated Indigenous people and their knowledge from forested areas. Since then, shared management protocols have been implemented to amend racist and environmentally degrading legislation on forested land, but are limited in their effect to reconcile the settler colonial legal system. The only true way to reconcile the settler colonial structure in place that …

Stable Allocations Of Vaccines In A Political Economy, Zephirin Nganmeni, Roland Pongou, Bertrand Tchantcho, Jean-Baptiste Tondji Mar 2022

Stable Allocations Of Vaccines In A Political Economy, Zephirin Nganmeni, Roland Pongou, Bertrand Tchantcho, Jean-Baptiste Tondji

School of Economics and Finance Faculty Publications

We develop a theory that addresses the existence of stable vaccine allocations in a political economy where vaccination offers both private and social benefits. These are allocation policies that a political leader can enforce without losing their popularity. We show that a stable allocation may not exist if vaccine supply is sufficiently low relative to the number of individuals eligible to receive a dose. We then characterize the minimum number of vaccine doses guaranteeing the existence of a stable vaccine allocation. Moreover, when individuals have unequal voting rights in the political economy, stable allocations favor those with greater voting power. …

This analytical framework, supported by a comprehensive literature review, the application of microeconomic and industrial organization concepts, and two case-study scenarios, provides several policy recommendations to address the most important foreign policy challenge the United States has faced since the end of the Cold War.

Understanding Queer Women’S Satisfaction With Healthcare Providers: The Role Of Positive Lgb Identity And Communication, Maddie Luebe

Honors Program: Senior Projects (Public)

Much research has explored the negative effects of having a queer identity in healthcare, such as stigmatization and discrimination, but little research examined the potential benefits of a positive LGBTQ identity in healthcare. This study investigated the relationship between having a positive LGBTQ identity and provider satisfaction through comfort communicating with a provider. This study also considered the potential effect of participants’ fear of provider heterosexism in this relationship. Survey data were collected from 506 queer-identified women in the United States. Using moderated mediation, results found that more positive feelings associated with one’s queer identity was associated with increased comfort …

Adjustment Across The First College Year: A Matched Comparison Of Autistic, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, And Neurotypical Students, Lauren M. Baczewski, Maria Pizzano, Connie Kasari, Alexandra Sturm Mar 2022

Adjustment Across The First College Year: A Matched Comparison Of Autistic, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, And Neurotypical Students, Lauren M. Baczewski, Maria Pizzano, Connie Kasari, Alexandra Sturm

Psychological Science Faculty Works

Background: Although the number of autistic students attending higher education has grown substantially in recent decades, little is known about factors that support their retention and persistence in college. First-year experiences and adaptability to the college environment greatly impact students' decisions to remain enrolled. Despite the importance of first-year adjustment to persistence and retention, few studies have examined the adjustment experiences of first-year autistic students compared to those of matched nonautistic students. Methods: This study used national survey data to compare the first-year college adjustment experiences of 222 freshmen, including 74 self-identified autistic students, 74 students with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), …

Chinese And Western Ways Of War And Their Ethics, C. Anthony Pfaff Mar 2022

Chinese And Western Ways Of War And Their Ethics, C. Anthony Pfaff

The US Army War College Quarterly: Parameters

US officials often portray the Chinese government as having few, if any, ethical boundaries in its pursuit of power. This article argues China, like Western countries, has a rich tradition of constraining this pursuit that can impact the nation’s policies. With a focus on the relationship between ways of war and ethics of war, it relies on traditional and contemporary scholarship from both the East and the West to highlight differences in how each military views the practical and ethical aspects of war and how these views can interact. Understanding the ethical logic available to one’s adversaries will allow US …
