Catalog of Donor Scholarships at Carroll University Catalog of Donor Scholarships at Carroll University arroll University is blessed to have a generous network of friends who believe in the value of a Carroll education, and Cchose to make investments to help students who have a passion for learning. Funding for our scholarships comes from our loyal alumni base, our board of trustees, our dedicated faculty and staff, our corporate partners in the community and other friends of Carroll. The importance of scholarships and financial aid cannot be overstated. More than 98 percent of current students at Carroll receive some type of financial assistance. Scholarships can make the difference not only in whether a student attends college, but also whether that student remains. This listing shares the stories of the people behind the scholarships, and their affinity for Carroll. Many of these scholarships are established as endowed funds, providing a permanent income stream for annual scholarships which carry on the name of the donor and create a personal legacy. As you read through this catalog, you will come to realize we are connected. There is a common thread that binds each one of us to one another. From generations past to today, the people of Carroll—the stories we share, the memories we hold, and the education gained—is what keeps the spirit of Carroll alive. We celebrate the generosity and the legacy these individuals have made in helping advance Carroll’s mission of preparing students for lives of meaning, purpose and success. 2 CATALOG OF DONOR SCHOLARSHIPS AT CARROLL UNIVERSITY Karl F. and Virginia Abendroth Endowed Scholarship Fund Established through the estate of Virginia Abendroth '44 in 2016.

  • Molecular, Cellular and Integrative Neuroscience
    Legend for the front cover illustration Andrew J. Ewald - (Scott E. Fraser Laboratory) An early frog embryo, imaged at high-resolution using surface imaging microscopy, a novel technique first applied to developmental biology in the Biological Imaging Center at Caltech (Ewald et al., Dev. Dynamics, 2002). In this neurula stage embryo, the archenteron (large cavity) has formed and the blastopore has closed, thus completing the major goals of gastrulation. Recent work from the Fraser Lab has studied the molecular control of archenteron formation and blastopore closure and demonstrated that both processes require non-canonical Wnt signaling, acting through Dishevelled (Ewald et al., Development, in press). Quantitative analytical techniques, also developed in the Fraser Lab, were applied to demonstrate that the cellular events of gastrulation are dissociable, and therefore providing a possible explanation for the observed diversity of gastrulation mechanisms among amphibians. Legend for the back cover illustration Edward Coles – (Marianne Bronner-Fraser Laboratory) Whole-mount immunohistochemistry of an E11 mouse embryo with anti- -tubulinIII (Tuj1) – an early marker of differentiating neurons.

Negative regulation of synaptic eIF4E by postsynaptic Pumilio Image by Violana Nesterova, Kai Zinn and Kaushiki Menon The cover shows accumulation of postsynaptic eIF4E aggregates (red) adjacent to a presynaptic microtubule marker (green), at Drosophila neuromuscular junctions (NMJs). The picture is an inverted mirror image of different neuromuscular junctions, oriented longitudinally. In our paper we examine the synaptic function of a translational repressor, Pumilio at Drosophila NMJs. eIF4E, is upregulated in Pumilio mutants (represented by NMJs with many eIF4E aggregates in the image) and is rescued by postsynaptic Pumilio expression (represented by NMJs with fewer eIF4E aggregates in the image).

How the response to that request grew from a letter into a pamphlet, and from a pamphlet into a volume ; by what unthought-of study, correspondence, and visits to the old homes of the family, a labour of love has reached its present stopping-place, I need not detail to any who have had anything to do with genealogical research.

  • 1 Cowboy and Wild West Myths in Community and Franchise Banking
    Cowboy and Wild West Myths in Community and Franchise Banking of the Southwestern United States Anna Linda Musacchio Adorisio and David M. Boje Chapter for Rodolphe Ocler (ed) "Semantic and organizations: Myths, fantasms, unsaid and misunderstanding,” published by l'Harmattan (France). Max Alain Guenette is the series editor. Our chapter problematizes the relation between narratives of writing and oral stories. We propose a complexity between individual memory and collective memory of people in organization. Specifically our exploration suggests that there is a collapse of critical history, as the official codifications of the past become a sort of propaganda, a socialization of common sense, detached from the nuances social experience. Storytelling for us is the arena of several currencies of sensemaking: retrospective, ontologic-now, and prospective. We also include antenarratives (the bet of a future, & the pre-storying before narrative coherence). Antenarratives (Boje 2001, 2008) populate organization discourse, but because of the preference for retrospection they are overlooked phenomenon. The contribution of our chapter is to explore how myths in the banking industry (written as well as the oral tradition), create imbalances in what Nietzsche calls three histories: the antiquarian (stuck in the past), the monumental (antenarrative bids on the future) and a critical history (necessary to break bonds with the past and not be anchorless in the future). We then look at how the mythic aspects of “cowboy and wild west banking” are embedded in the architecture. We use the case to interrogate several theories of myth. Specifically in the banking lore we explore how hegemonic practices of franchise banks, in this instance, appropriate and distort the history of community banks.

  • American Heritage Center
    UNIVERSITY OF WYOMING AMERICAN HERITAGE CENTER GUIDE TO ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY RESOURCES Child actress Mary Jane Irving with Bessie Barriscale and Ben Alexander in the 1918 silent film Heart of Rachel. Mary Jane Irving papers, American Heritage Center. Compiled by D. Claudia Thompson and Shaun A. Hayes 2009 PREFACE When the University of Wyoming began collecting the papers of national entertainment figures in the 1970s, it was one of only a handful of repositories actively engaged in the field. Business and industry, science, family history, even print literature were all recognized as legitimate fields of study while prejudice remained against mere entertainment as a source of scholarship. There are two arguments to be made against this narrow vision. In the first place, entertainment is very much an industry. It employs thousands. It requires vast capital expenditure, and it lives or dies on profit. In the second place, popular culture is more universal than any other field. Each individual’s experience is unique, but one common thread running throughout humanity is the desire to be taken out of ourselves, to share with our neighbors some story of humor or adventure. This is the basis for entertainment. The Entertainment Industry collections at the American Heritage Center focus on the twentieth century. During the twentieth century, entertainment in the United States changed radically due to advances in communications technology. The development of radio made it possible for the first time for people on both coasts to listen to a performance simultaneously. The delivery of entertainment thus became immensely cheaper and, at the same time, the fame of individual performers grew.
