Schaller This study demonstrates the value of organization-specific articulations of exemplary leadership. The research topic relates to leadership and organizational studies in general, and higher educational leadership and organizational commitment in particular. The focus of inquiry is the complex, human-organizational phenomenon of exemplary leadership commitment to mission and identity among lay leaders in the Catholic and Marianist tradition of one top-tier research university in the United States. The context of inquiry is the emerging prominence and critical role of lay leadership in Catholic higher education. The researcher offers an in -depth examination of how exemplary lay leaders experience and practice their personal commitment to Catholic- Marianist mission and identity. The research objective is to understand and describe the essential meanings in the lived experiences of exemplary lay leaders, presenting individual descriptions and collective syntheses of the phenomenon in focus. The intended audience includes leaders in Marianist and Catholic higher education; iv administrators involved in leadership development and mission and identity enculturation; and researchers in higher education, phenomenology, and interdisciplinary studies in leadership and organizational behavior. Using the transcendental phenomenological research method, the researcher generates eight individual “portraits-in-words,” containing multilayered human portrayals that allow the reader to intuit and empathize with the interior experiences and meaning making of the exemplary lay leaders in this study. The researcher also analyzes the experiential data collectively, presenting numerous “composite syntheses” of the apparent textures and underlying structures of the phenomenon in focus. Finally, the researcher describes three “streams” within the lived experience of the phenomenon, namely: exemplary lay commitment, exemplary Marianist leadership, and the experience of Catholic and Marianist mission and identity, concluding with a brief “statement of essence” containing essential meanings that do not vary across the descriptions of exemplary lay leaders. This study contributes to the narrative of Catholic and Marianist higher education by empirically investigating the interior lives of exemplary leaders, articulating a phenomenology of exemplary lay leadership commitment to mission and identity, and drawing insights from the lived experiences of present-day exemplary leaders in order to inform future leadership practice, development, and research. The future of mission and identity in Catholic and Marianist higher education hinges on one critical factor – the ongoing presence of the interior phenomenon of exemplary lay leadership commitment to mission and identity. This study sheds a bright light on this noteworthy and necessary v phenomenon – sine qua non (without which nothing) – thus preserving its legacy in institutional memory, and offering “seeds” for reflection, conversation, and action. Key terms: phenomenology, interior life, exemplary leadership, lay leaders, commitment, mission and identity, Catholic, Marianist, university, higher education, interdisciplinary studies, organizational behavior, educational philosophy, leadership ethics, organization-specific articulations of exemplary leadership. vi With Hazel vii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I was able to undertake this project because of the support of my family, and most of all, my wife, Hazel, who shared this journey with me, and endured much through its process. I share this dissertation and doctoral degree with her. I am blessed by my parents, Matilda and Eusebio Franco, who always supported me in the pursuits I chose to undertake. I am also strengthened by my sister and brother, Cleo and Alrio, who give me hope, and whose happiness is my joy. I am grateful to Hazel’s parents, Bertille and Rufino Rodrigues, and brother Ignatius, for their prayerful support. I affectionately remember our grandparents who are undoubtedly watching over us. I am what I am today, in great measure, because of my mother – who showed me what it means to love unconditionally; and I thank her for this. I am immensely grateful to my academic advisor, Dr. Molly Schaller, who believed in me steadfastly, and whom I am proud to call my mentor and friend. Her brilliant guidance and ongoing affirmation gave me the strength to persevere and hope through many difficult periods. I would not have been able to complete this project without her unwavering faith in its value and remarkable selflessness as an educator. If you read this work and are benefited by it, I request you to breathe a prayer for her. I am especially grateful to Dr. Carolyn Ridenour, whose gentle heart and personhood as an educator have blessed my life in many ways. She nurtured the scholar- viii researcher within me and showed me that it is possible to integrate sincere compassion with great research. I am grateful to all my doctoral professors who supported me, especially Dr. Joseph Watras, whose professorial integrity I most identified with, and whose teaching of ethical theory and educational philosophy I most appreciated. I am grateful to several Marianists who were supportive of me, especially: Fr. David Fleming, S.M., for his early presence along this journey, and for guiding my Marianist studies; and Bro. Thomas Giardino, S.M., who collaborated with me on several Marianist leadership development programs; my journey towards making this contribution is closely linked to his trust and perseverance. I gratefully acknowledge the support of numerous persons and offices related to the University of Dayton and the Marianist Province of the United States. I am particularly grateful to the eight exemplary lay leaders who collaborated with me in this study, and also my pilot participant. I am humbled by their trust, openness, and generosity towards me, and by their willingness to share their interior lives with the readers of this study. I thank Sr. Leema Rose, SSpS, who has interceded for me steadfastly over the past two decades of my life and ministry. I thank each person who has contributed to this work, directly or indirectly – for every expression of support, every prayer for grace, and every act of kindness. May every blessing be yours. With my wife Hazel, I offer this work to Jesus and Mary, whose love for us, and ours for whom, is the reason why this dissertation exists. To all who will read this manuscript – thank you! Please share your reflections with others, and perhaps, also with me.

One of the many misconception about country music is that its audience is strictly southern and rural; my northern urban working class family listened exclusively to country music.

  • A Spell for Chameleon," He Said Musingly
    Spell For Chameleon – Xanth 01 By Piers Anthony Chapter 1. Xanth A small lizard perched on a brown stone. Feeling threatened by the approach of human beings along the path, it metamorphosed into a stingray beetle, then into a stench-puffer, then into a fiery salamander. Bink smiled. These conversions weren't real. It had assumed the forms of obnoxious little monsters, but not their essence. It could not sting, stink, or bum. It was a chameleon, using its magic to mimic creatures of genuine threat. Yet as it shifted into the form of a basilisk it glared at him with such ferocity that Bink's mirth abated. If its malice could strike him, he would be horribly dead. Then abruptly a silent moth hawk swooped down from the sky and caught the chameleon in its beak. There was a thin scream of anguish as the lizard convulsed; then it dangled limply as the hawk ascended. The chameleon, despite all its pretensions, was dead. Even while trying to threaten Bink it had been destroyed by another agency. Page 1 This retaliation continued to percolate through Bink's emotion. The chameleon was harmless - but most of untamed Xanth was not. Was this some twisted omen, a small suggestion of a dire fate awaiting him? Omens were serious business; they always came true, but usually were misinterpreted until too late. Was Bink fated to die brutally---or was some enemy of his? He had, so far as he knew, no enemies. The golden sun of Xanth - shone through the magic shield, striking sparkles from the trees.

  • Tim Lahaye & Jerry B
    NICOLAE: The Rise of the Antichrist Book 3 of the Left Behind Series TIM LAHAYE & JERRY B. JENKINS CHAPTER ONE It was the worst of times; it was the worst of times. Rayford Steele's knees ached as he sat behind the wheel of the rented Lincoln. He had dropped to the pavement at the crushing realization of his pastor's death. The physical pain, though it would stay with him for days, would prove minor compared to the mental anguish of having yet again lost one of the dearest people in his life. Rayford felt Amanda's eyes on him. She laid one comforting hand on his thigh. In the backseat his daughter, Chloe, and her husband, Buck, each had a hand on his shoulder. What now? Rayford wondered, What do we do without Bruce? Where do we go? The Emergency Broadcast System station droned on with the news of chaos, devastation, terror, and destruction throughout the world. Unable to speak over the lump in his throat, Rayford busied himself maneuvering his way through the incongruous traffic jams. Why were people out? What did they expect to see? Weren't they afraid of more bombs, or fallout? “I need to get to the Chicago bureau office,” Buck said. “You can use the car after we get to the church,” Rayford managed. “I need to get the word out about Bruce.” Global Community peacekeeping forces supervised local police and emergency relief personnel directing traffic and trying to get people to return to their homes. Rayford relied on his many years in the Chicago area to use back roads and side streets to get around the major thoroughfares, which were hopelessly clogged.

  • Fight the Power Vol. 2: ​The All-American Rejects
    Fight The Power Vol. 2: ​The All-American Rejects Written by Andy Huff <AH> and Connor Mayers <untagged> 1. ​He’s not from Houston, but on one song, this rapper remarked how his style was born because he “Came up on the Geto Boys and the Underground Kingz.” In another of his songs, the chorus remarks that he has “Crocodile on my feet, Fox fur on my back, Bowtie 'round my neck, That's why they call me the gangsta mack.” After the breakup of his most famous group, this man created the Purple Ribbon All-Stars, which launched the career of Janelle Monae. The first appearance of (+) Killer Mike was in a song where this man rapped “wait back to the enemy of the state/is it the Republicans or the Candidate.” As a part of his most famous group, this man rapped that he “Uno, dos, tres, it's on/Did you ever think a pimp rock a microphone?” before ending “When you come to (*)​ ATL, boy, you better not hide/'Cause the Dungeon Family gon' ride.” In addition to “The Whole World” and “B.O.B.” this rapper had a hit with Sleepy Brown on a song that begins “ready for action nip it in the bud” called “The Way You Move.” For ten points, name this Atlanta rapper who along with Andre 3000 made up Outkast.
