This issue includes twenty-four of the papers presented at this year’s conference spanning a wide range of topics, including international finance, leadership, communication, social media, ethics, corporate governance, teaching methods, and accounting, just to name a few. I would like to thank all the authors for the high quality papers. Obviously, without you there would be no conference. I also appreciate the support for this conference from the Conference Chair, Bala Maniam and from the Program Chair, Laura Sullivan. It is a privilege for all of us at Sam Houston State to host outstanding researchers and teachers from around the globe. It has been my pleasure to serve as proceedings editor for last three years. In this role, I have had the opportunity to read each of the papers as they are received, and enjoy becoming more familiar with the research conducted in areas outside my specific discipline. While we each are dedicated to our areas of expertise, it’s refreshing to be a part of an interdisciplinary conference. We hope you take advantage of the wide variety of topics discussed over our two days of presentations and that you will discover new ideas which you can use in a variety of ways at hour home institutions. Steve Nenninger, Ph.D. Assistant Professor of Finance Proceeding Editor FOREIGN AID AND DEVELOPMENT: WHAT CAN DEVLOPING NATIONS LEARN Tamer Rady Ain-Shams University ABSTRACT In the wake of the Arab spring revolutions voices within that region started to question foreign aid. While the loud voices are clear in the media, none provided a scientific rational of the effect of aid. This paper reviews the recent findings on the relationship between foreign aid and development. Findings indicate that despite conflicting empirical results on the nature of relationship that exists between aid and growth, foreign aid can achieve some development goals in absence of corruption and with sound economic policy and institutions, its impact may be larger if it is not sustainable and if it was coordinated properly between the donors. In addition, aid in the form of technical assistance can at times be of larger impact. THE IMPACT OF LEADERSHIP COACHING ON TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP Jessica M. Reyes Liske, MA Our Lady of the Lake University Mark T. Green, Ph.D. Our Lady of the Lake University ABSTRACT Transformational leadership is a theory that has consistently proven to be a successful leadership practice that enhances performance and the motivation of a leader’s followers. Leadership experts recommend that executive coaching can be an avenue to explore when a leader needs to strengthen or improve a competency or behavior which would enhance their followers experience in the workplace. Additionally, leadership coaching could also enhance the leader’s ability to be a more transformational leader. The necessity for coaching tomorrow’s leaders is critical (De Meuse, et al, 2009). Two hundred and thirty four individuals occupying leadership roles completed the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire, often referred to as a “360 degree” assessment, as the leader is being rated from three different organizational viewpoints. The Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) was developed to determine the degree to which leaders exhibited transformational and transactional leadership. The MLQ has undergone many revisions during the past 20 years. The Form 5X contains five transformational leadership subscales, two transactional subscales, and two passive subscales of leadership that together form what is known as the full range leadership theory. A four-way Analysis of Variance was run with 360 degree ratings of people at work, job in general, work on the present job, and present pay, were the dependent variables and leader age, gender, education, and ethnicity were independent variables. INTRODUCTION A leader’s behaviors and actions can affect their follower’s overall experience in the workplace and satisfaction. Leadership coaching is a modality that can strengthen and reinforce an individual’s competencies or behaviors. This study examined 184 individuals occupying

  • Microfilm Publication M617, Returns from U.S
    Publication Number: M-617 Publication Title: Returns from U.S. Military Posts, 1800-1916 Date Published: 1968 RETURNS FROM U.S. MILITARY POSTS, 1800-1916 On the 1550 rolls of this microfilm publication, M617, are reproduced returns from U.S. military posts from the early 1800's to 1916, with a few returns extending through 1917. Most of the returns are part of Record Group 94, Records of the Adjutant General's Office; the remainder is part of Record Group 393, Records of United States Army Continental Commands, 1821-1920, and Record Group 395, Records of United States Army Overseas Operations and Commands, 1898-1942. The commanding officer of every post, as well ad commanders of all other bodies of troops such as department, division, brigade, regiment, or detachment, was required by Army Regulations to submit a return (a type of personnel report) to The Adjutant General at specified intervals, usually monthly, on forms provided by that office. Several additions and modifications were made in the form over the years, but basically it was designed to show the units that were stationed at a particular post and their strength, the names and duties of the officers, the number of officers present and absent, a listing of official communications received, and a record of events. In the early 19th century the form used for the post return usually was the same as the one used for regimental or organizational returns. Printed forms were issued by the Adjutant General’s Office, but more commonly used were manuscript forms patterned after the printed forms.

  • National Statuary Hall Collection: Background and Legislative Options
    National Statuary Hall Collection: Background and Legislative Options Updated December 3, 2019 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R42812 National Statuary Hall Collection: Background and Legislative Options Summary The National Statuary Hall Collection, located in the U.S. Capitol, comprises 100 statues provided by individual states to honor persons notable for their historic renown or for distinguished services. The collection was authorized in 1864, at the same time that Congress redesignated the hall where the House of Representatives formerly met as National Statuary Hall. The first statue, depicting Nathanael Greene, was provided in 1870 by Rhode Island. The collection has consisted of 100 statues—two statues per state—since 2005, when New Mexico sent a statue of Po’pay. At various times, aesthetic and structural concerns necessitated the relocation of some statues throughout the Capitol. Today, some of the 100 individual statues in the National Statuary Hall Collection are located in the House and Senate wings of the Capitol, the Rotunda, the Crypt, and the Capitol Visitor Center. Legislation to increase the size of the National Statuary Hall Collection was introduced in several Congresses. These measures would permit states to furnish more than two statues or allow the District of Columbia and the U.S. territories to provide statues to the collection. None of these proposals were enacted. Should Congress choose to expand the number of statues in the National Statuary Hall Collection, the Joint Committee on the Library and the Architect of the Capitol (AOC) may need to address statue location to address aesthetic, structural, and safety concerns in National Statuary Hall, the Capitol Visitor Center, and other areas of the Capitol.

    >> Janet Clemens: Imagine your greatest challenge in life is not the part where people continuously drought that your artwork is your own and insist that you prove it, but the simple fact that it's 1871 and you're a woman wearing pants. [ Music ] You're listening to Shaping History: Women in Capitol Art, produced by the Capitol Visitor Center. Our mission is to inform, involve, and inspire every visitor to the United States Capitol. I'm your host, Janet Clemens. [ Music ] In 1905, 15 years before the 19th amendment was ratified, Texas became the only state to have the same woman create both of their statues for the National Statuary Hall Collection. Elisabet Ney was a woman before her time, from her secret marriage and refusal to take her husband's last name to her practical clothing in support of women's dress reform, Elisabet Ney's life path was unusual. Immigrating to America in the early 1870s, she faced many of the same challenges as other women artists represented in the National Statuary Hall Collection. Struggling to obtain an education in art, balancing the expectations of marriage and motherhood with her own career goals, and striving to be taken seriously as a professional without being reduced to a mere object of fascinate. To discuss Ney's unique trajectory, I spoke with art historian Jacquelyn Delin McDonald. Jacquelyn, welcome to our podcast. >> Jacquelyn Delin McDonald: Oh, thank you so much. I'm glad to be here. >> Janet Clemens: So, you're an expert on Elisabet Ney. Can you take us just to the beginning, who is Elisabet Ney? >> Jacquelyn Delin McDonald: So, Elisabet Ney, born in Munster, 1833.
