An Investigation Of College Success Of Odebolt-Arthur High School Graduates, Odebolt, Iowa, Donna Yvonne Hunter

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

Throughout the nat1on there is a rapid increase in college and university enrollments. With this ever-increasing enrollment high school students find it necessary to make earlier decisions concerning their future. Such decisions usually bring forth the question, "Will I be able to succeed in college?" Such a question places much responsibility upon the high school counselor to provide students, as well as parents, with objective information concerning this transition from high school to college. Therefore, high school counselors are in need of more valid methods of making recommendations as to possible success in colleges and universities.

A Political Study Of Federal Aid To Education At Utah State University, Richard Yates Merrell

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

In the present-day world of change, every time we pick up the paper we read of something new in our society. We now have new rockets, new satellites, new computers, and new methods or destruction. There are also many "new" things in the field of education. One of these is federal aid to education. As yet, there seems to be no consensus on the merits of this supposedly new approach to educational finance. Some view it as a kind or plague; others see it as an unmixed blessing. Actually, federal aid to education is quite old and quite common.

The Juarez Stake Academy, Dale M. Valentine

Theses and Dissertations

While the history of the Latter-day Saints who colonized in Mexico is probably not generally known by the majority of Latter-day Saints living throughout the world today, it nevertheless comprises an exceptionally colorful and exciting chapter of the history of Mormonism. The Latter-day Saints who went to Mexico created there a culture and society which has never been duplicated. Probably one of the chief concerns of the Mormon Colonists in Mexico was to establish in their society a culture which would be lastingly enduring and which would progressively improve. Secondly, it is also probable that they were passionately desirous of …
