  • ABSTRACT the Contribution of John Lounsbury to the Development Of
    ABSTRACT The Contribution of John Lounsbury to the Development of the Middle School Movement in American Education: An Oral History Sheila Rogers Gloer Committee Chairperson: Betty J. Conaway John H. Lounsbury is considered to be one of the founders of the middle school movement. His career began in the 1940’s as a junior high school teacher. He later became one of the key leaders in the junior high reform movement and subsequently, a leader in the middle school movement. Although Lounsbury retired from his position as professor and dean of the School of Education at Georgia College and State University two decades ago, he is still actively involved in the National Middle School Association and is the senior publications editor for the organization. This dissertation describes his career and his contributions to the middle school movement and his understanding of key philosophical underpinnings. The dissertation also analyzes the impact of Lounsbury’s work in molding the movement and how his work impacted other key leaders. Oral interview was the selected venue for this research because the interview process allowed for Lounsbury’s own interpretation of events which he experienced. Interviews with Lounsbury were conducted in 2005 and 2006. They were transcribed and analyzed along with interviews of twelve key leaders in the middle school movement as well as interviews of Lounsbury’s wife, Elizabeth Lounsbury, his executive assistant, Mary Mitchell, and high school best friend, Tom Rogers. The following four research questions were employed in each interview: 1) What led Lounsbury and others to develop and promote the middle school philosophy? 2) What factors present in the 1950’s and 1960’s necessitated reform for the education of young adolescents? 3) What are essential elements for successful education of the middle level student? 4) What is the future of middle level education? The responses to these four questions by all interviewees were analyzed and then organized into key themes.

  • A Phenomenological Examination of Racial Microaggressions in Intraracial Therapeutic Counseling Relationships
    A Phenomenological Examination Of Racial Microaggressions In Intraracial Therapeutic Counseling Relationships By Audrey Redding-Raines A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School - Newark in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Public Affairs and Administration Written under the direction of Professor Norma Riccucci and approved by _______________________________ Dr. Norma Riccucci (Chair) _______________________________ Dr. Sherri-Ann Butterfield _______________________________ Dr. Madinah Hamidullah _______________________________ Dr. Quintus Jett Newark, New Jersey May, 2016 © 2016 Audrey Redding-Raines ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION A Phenomenological Examination Of Racial Microaggressions In Intraracial Therapeutic Counseling Relationships By Audrey Redding-Raines Dissertation Chair: Professor Norma Riccucci Public service organizations involved in addiction and/or mental health counseling are becoming more racially and culturally diverse with a growing number of Black individuals serving as frontline workers within these types of organizations. Demographic changes coupled with an ever-increasing cultural diversification within American society has resulted in the Black frontline worker and the client of color engaging in therapeutic dialogues that involve different cultural backgrounds, beliefs, values, practices, behaviors, and/or languages. These types of therapeutic dialogues are persistent features of any competent frontline worker’s approach to honing his or her craft. Therefore, in a society that is rapidly becoming more racially and culturally diverse, combined with the complexities of contemporary racism, racial prejudice, and/or cultural miscommunication, it is extremely important that Black frontline workers begin to understand how their perception of racial microaggressions and how they racially self- identify may influence their decision-making process during the intraracial therapeutic counseling relationship.

  • The Van Deventer Family
    THE VAN DEVENTER FAMILY THE VANDEVENTER FAMILY Dedicated to the Memory of MR. WILLIS VAN DEVANTER Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States Compiled by CHRISTOBELLE VAN DEVENTER Pres8 of E. \V. STEPHENS COMPANY Columbia, Missouri 1943 COPYRIGHT, 1943 BY CHRISTOBELLE VAN DEVENTER PREFACE Mr. Justice Willis Van Devanter had a keen interest in the genealogy of the family, and pursued it with characteristic thoroughness, devoting much time and effort to the collection of data. It was his purpose to publish and preserve the material, but unfortunately this purpose was not accomplished. He extended his research to the Netherlands and had made several visits there. A genealogist, recommended by the Archivist in the City of Utrecht, was engaged to trace the family, and succeeded in extending the line of descent to the great grandfather of Jan Pietersz van Deventer, the first American ancestor. The very thorough research made by Mr. Charles 0. Van­ devanter of the original records in all states where the early ramily had been located, has added materially to the value of this work. Much family data was supplied by various descend­ ant families. One of the first to undertake research, at a time when the subject was whol)y undeveloped, was Mr. Charles H. Van Deventer, of New York. Mr. James Thayer Van Deventer and three of his sons have contributed valuable records. Mr. Paul M. Chamberlain devoted considerable time to research. These records have all been made available and have been incorporated into this work. A considerable portion of the text is based upon original records and numerous recognized authorities.

  • Wills of Cecil County, Maryland 1777-1810
    Cecil County, Maryland Wills 1777-1810 Briefly abstracted by John W. McCoy © 2010 ([email protected]) Due to the importance of Cecil Co. as a jumping-off point for migrations into Virginia, the Carolinas, Ohio, Western Pennsylvania, etc., and also because we found so many contradictory statements about particular wills from this county, we decided to abstract the early will books, attempting to get all of the heirs, and all of the dates. With this information, the genealogist will be able to find the full text on the microfilms. We happened to start with the Family History Library microfilm that has books ―CC 3‖ to ―FF 6‖. The wills contain much additional information about slaves. Many are mentioned by name, and there are a few whose parents are named as well. We have not attempted to extract this information. Some of the wills express confusion about whether the testators were living in Chester Co., PA or Cecil Co., MD, because of the boundary disputes of that period. We only list locations when there is specific information. Some individuals are identified as Quakers in these records. This happens most often when they appear as witnesses who ―affirm‖ rather than ―swear‖ to the authenticity of a will. Original spellings are used (barring typographical errors in the abstracts!), but names are frequently spelled in different ways in the same record. Alternate spellings attested within a given probate are shown in parentheses. When we have guessed, through internal evidence or otherwise, the modern equivalent of a particular spelling, we show that in parentheses with an equal sign: Mevey (=McVey).

  • Actors' Equity Association and President of The
    NEGOTIATING THE CREATIVE SECTOR: UNDERSTANDING THE ROLE AND IMPACT OF AN ARTISTIC UNION IN A CULTURAL INDUSTRY A Study of Actors’ Equity Association and the Theatrical Industry DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Rachel Shane, B.S., M.S. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. Margaret Wyszomirski, Advisor ________________________ Dr. Wayne Lawson Advisor Graduate Program in Art Education Dr. Sam Short Dr. Alan Woods Copyright by Rachel Shane 2006 ABSTRACT Stage actors have long been an integral element of the cultural community in the United States. From vaudeville to the Broadway stage, actors have carved a niche for themselves in the theatrical landscape of the United States. Yet, little has specifically been written on the functionality of the primary theatrical actors’ association and union, Actors’ Equity Association. This dissertation examines the formation of the theatrical industry and the simultaneous development of Actors’ Equity Association as an institution within that industry. In doing so, the work makes connections between development of the industry and the role of Actors’ Equity Association on the field’s development. This interpretive historical inquiry sets the stage for the contemporary understanding of theatrical actors. The research is focused on unionism, the evolution of labor in the United States, the development of the theatrical industry, and the reactive and proactive behavior of Actors’ Equity Association. This case study investigates the development of a creative sector union and its role within an industry through three lenses: resource dependence, institutional isomorphism, and collective action.
