NEWSLETTER Honoring Our Legacy of Resilience, Pride and Community Engagement SPRING 2021 NEWSLETTER Honoring Our Legacy of Resilience, Pride and Community Engagement President’s Letter One of the greatest privileges of my life has been serving as the 46th President of Black Women Lawyers Association of Los Angeles, Incorporated (“BWL”). I am honored to have been given the opportunity to lead BWL and to join the ranks of the 45 amazing women who have previously led BWL. BWL is an important legacy of Black excellence in the city of Los Angeles and despite the challenges we faced as a result of the ongoing pandemic, this year we exceeded expectations in terms of fundraising and in our commitment to the community at large. I am extremely thankful for my 2020-2021 Board of Officers (“Board”), Committee Chairs and every individual who contributed to BWL and participated in our programing this year. The success of BWL depends on a team effort, and I was blessed to have a network of individuals willing to make sacrifices and put in Michelle Kazadi, Esq. the work necessary to ensure that BWL’s legacy continues. 2020-2021 President As the 2019-2020 BWL year came to end, it included BWL swag and special treats.

Mr. Rod Cox – Co Supervisor, School of Rural Management, Charles Sturt University Abstract This research focuses on an Australian agribusiness supply chain, the Australian Beef Supply Chain. The definition of the Australian Beef Supply Chain is the chain or sequence of all activities from the breeding property to the domestic or overseas consumers. The beef sector in Australia is undergoing rapid change because of globalisation, a highly competitive beef market (local and export), quicker production cycle and delivery times and consequently reduced inventories, a general speed-up of the rate of change in the business environment, the trend toward more outsourcing of activities, and the rapid development of IT.

For your patience, love, inspiration, and silliness. This may not change the world, but I hope it helps our understanding of it a bit better. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First, I want to thank my committee members: Dr. Gretchen Busl, Dr. Dundee Lackey, and Dr. Genevieve West. I appreciate all of your thoughtful comments, recommendations, and the discussions we have had throughout the dissertation process, as well as all of those that came before it. Without your brilliance, support, and patience, I do not know that this would have ever made it off the ground, much less become a completed project. I would like to extend a huge thank you to my fellow Graduate Teaching Assistants in the First-Year Composition program for allowing me to visit your classrooms for recruitment, as well as all of the encouragement throughout the process. I am also grateful to all of those who participated in the study and trusted me to get them through a semester long research project without taking too much time away from their own personal educational goals. It was definitely a huge learning process for me; I hope it was a positive learning one for all those involved.

  • 2020–21 Commencement Program
    Commencement UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO BOULDER MAY 6, 2021 One Hundred Forty-Fifth Year of the University NORLIN CHARGE TO THE GRADUATES The first commencement at the University of Colorado was held for six graduates on June 8, 1882, in the chapel of Old Main. It was not until 40 years later, on September 4, 1922, that the first summer commencement was held. Since the first commencement in 1882, the University of Colorado Boulder has awarded more than 350,000 degrees. The traditional Norlin Charge to the graduates was first read by President George Norlin to the June 1935 graduating class. You are now certified to the world at large as alumni of the university. She is your kindly mother and you her cherished sons and daughters. This exercise denotes not your severance from her, but your union with her. Commencement does not mean, as many wrongly think, the breaking of ties and the beginning of life apart. Rather it marks your initiation in the fullest sense into the fellowship of the university, as bearers of her torch, as centers of her influence, as promoters of her spirit. The university is not the campus, not the buildings on campus, not the faculties, not the students of any one time—not one of these or all of them. The university consists of all who come into and go forth from her halls, who are touched by her influence, and who carry on her spirit. Wherever you go, the university goes with you. Wherever you are at work, there is the university at work.

  • Exemplar Texts for Grades
    COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS FOR English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects _____ Appendix B: Text Exemplars and Sample Performance Tasks OREGON COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS FOR English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects Exemplars of Reading Text Complexity, Quality, and Range & Sample Performance Tasks Related to Core Standards Selecting Text Exemplars The following text samples primarily serve to exemplify the level of complexity and quality that the Standards require all students in a given grade band to engage with. Additionally, they are suggestive of the breadth of texts that students should encounter in the text types required by the Standards. The choices should serve as useful guideposts in helping educators select texts of similar complexity, quality, and range for their own classrooms. They expressly do not represent a partial or complete reading list. The process of text selection was guided by the following criteria: Complexity. Appendix A describes in detail a three-part model of measuring text complexity based on qualitative and quantitative indices of inherent text difficulty balanced with educators’ professional judgment in matching readers and texts in light of particular tasks. In selecting texts to serve as exemplars, the work group began by soliciting contributions from teachers, educational leaders, and researchers who have experience working with students in the grades for which the texts have been selected. These contributors were asked to recommend texts that they or their colleagues have used successfully with students in a given grade band. The work group made final selections based in part on whether qualitative and quantitative measures indicated that the recommended texts were of sufficient complexity for the grade band.
