ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This project took more than six years to reach fruition. Many people have provided love, trust, guidance, and direction as my research developed into this dissertation. My committee was unlike any other collection of learned professionals I have worked with and studied under. My chair and methodologist, Dr. Jim Carl, directed my work with a precise hand. He was open to my planned project and cheered me along the way to completion. Dr. Carl sensed the depths of curiosity I felt as I embraced the history of education for women in a very exclusive and politically sensitive venue. He truly challenged me to bring my participants to life. Dr. Anne Galletta and Dr. Dwayne Wright, shared insights that led to social and historic exploration beyond the level of novice to a sense of discovery in the most human sense. Dr. Elizabeth Lehfeldt brought the consciousness of feminist research to the table and expanded my reach into the realm of theorists who went before me in the quest of knowing womanhood from many viewpoints, both historic and contemporary. Dr. Mike Loovis inspired me to take command of the written word in presentation and detail. His leadership and the leadership of the entire committee is unlikely to be matched as a collection of scholars anytime soon. I was fortunate to have this once-in-a lifetime exchange with such a powerful group. My heart is forever impressed by the beauty and grace of the women who participated in this research. Their trust and affection is regarded as the most precious treasure shared between humans. I am so grateful to the dear Sisters of the Good Shepherd, who welcomed me with unconditional love and respect; sharing their table and quarters with me during my research. Their openness and sincerity are hallmarks of the standards of their beloved foundress, Saint Mary Euphrasia, who instructed her daughters to do all in the spirit of the institute and to be full of love and charity for all souls. I extend a deep feeling of love and gratitude for the members in Cohort XVI, especially Dr. Kay MacAtee and Dr. Aaron Ellington. Kay has been a big support throughout the program in class and informal fun settings. She always has a delightful smile and a sunny disposition. I was encouraged to see both Kay and Aaron in the audience during my defense. Aaron provided support as no other could have. He helped me over rough spots in some of the coursework and partnered with me on class projects. Words cannot express the affection I feel for both of these individuals. I must include a mention of “Mother Druid”, Dorothea Elizabeth Davis (1913-2003). She taught me to look to nature for the most valuable lessons about life. I learned that sheep were more than a flock of animals to tend, but were teachers of a higher order. I never knew that selflessness and patience were the keys to becoming a better person and scholar until she taught me to care for the innocent lambs in her flock. Somehow there must be an ethereal connection between her and Saint Mary Euphrasia. I did not put it together until I was writing the concluding chapter of this dissertation. I miss her deeply. Last, but not least, I thank my family. They were with me through all the personal trials such as, my husband’s year-long deployment to Iraq and household damage caused by the flood in 2006. My father taught me to be fearless and brave and walk the walk. My mother taught me to be resourceful. I used these skills repeatedly during my research and thank both of them for teaching me to forge my own pathways any time I could. I am the first college graduate in the history of both sides of the family and reached the pinnacle of PhD by standing tall on the shoulders of my parents. Thank You. EDUCATION FOR GIRLS IN THE HOUSE OF THE GOOD SHEPHERD IN THE UNITED STATES, 1940 TO 1980 NANCYMARIE PHILLIPS ABSTRACT Convent education has sought to impart a set of moral values that would lead to a productive life, both spiritually and socially. The foundress of the Good Shepherd Sisters started a convent-based social service institution for vulnerable women and girls in Europe that evolved into a postsecondary education system in the United States for adolescent girls remanded by the judicial system. Convent education has been an underresearched area in the history of American education, and this dissertation takes parochial education for girls into account in the broad sweep of American educational developments. This historical study utilizes archival research, oral histories, student and teacher memoirs, and secondary sources to explore the Good Shepherd schools for girls in the mid- twentieth century United States. The Good Shepherd schools featured manual labor, occupational training, and academic instruction that played a significant role in shaping girls’ identities. viii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT ................................................................................................. viii CHAPTER I.

  • They Came to Serve
    A Chronicle of Women Religious in the Diocese of Dallas 1874-2014 THEY CAME TO SERVE BY SISTER MARY BRIAN BOLE, SSND A 125th Anniversary Publication of the Catholic Diocese of Dallas Archives Introduction Too few people are aware of the courageous sisters who came to serve the Church in Texas in collaboration with the diocesan priests and religious prieests and brothers. Many endured long religious voyages to reach the vineyard to which they had been called. Many died to the dread epidemics of cholera and yellow fever that repeatedly swept over the republic and later the state. Others died protecting the orphans at St. Mary’s Orphanage in Galveston in 1900. Long before our diocese was established in 1890 Ursuline Nuns, Daughters of Charity, Holy Cross Sisters and Sisters of St. Mary Namur had established schools, hospitals and academies in what would become the Dallas diocese. They were but the vanguard of the thousands of women religious from 63 communities who came to serve and are still serving God in this corner of his vineyard. Sister Mary Brian Bole, SSND, gives a glimpse of the labors of these brave consecrated women in this chronicle. Theirs is story that needed to be told and she has done it well. January 1, 2016 Most Rev. Kevin J. Farrell Bishop of Dallas The Author School Sister of Notre Dame Mary Brian Bole, author of They Came to Serve, has held administrative and teaching positions at a number of educational institutions in Texas and Japan, including the University of Dallas, Kyoto Notre Dame University, Kyoto, Japan, Bishop Dunne School, Nolan Catholic High School, Fort Worth, the Highlands School, Irving and Our Lady of Perpetual Help School in Dallas.

  • 1 Korean Physical Education Teachers' and Female Students
    Korean Physical Education Teachers’ and Female Students’ Beliefs about Girls’ Physical Activity Participation Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Mijoo Kim Graduate Program in Kinesiology The Ohio State University 2020 Dissertation Committee Dr. Samuel R. Hodge, Advisor Dr. Sue Sutherland Dr. Donna Pastore 1 Copyrighted by Mijoo Kim 2020 2 Abstract Despite the well-known holistic benefits of regular participation in physical activity (Blair et al., 2001; Mears, 2007), secondary school students worldwide do not meet the recommended guidelines (Hallal et al., 2013), and female students report significantly lower rates of physical activity than male students (Oh et al., 2019; Wilkinson & Bretzing, 2011). Moreover, research indicates that girls’ physical activity rates decline in adolescence (Neumark-Sztainer et al., 2003), and their levels of enjoyment and confidence in secondary school physical education influence their physical activity later in life (Davison et al., 2010; Woodson-Smith et al., 2015). There is a lack of research conducted on female students’ physical activity in secondary schools in East Asian contexts, and in South Korea in particular. Thus, this qualitative study utilized theory of planned behavior (Ajzen, 1991) to explore the beliefs of South Korea physical education teachers and their female secondary school students regarding girls’ physical activity. Data was collected from teacher and student demographic questionnaires, semi-structured teacher and student interviews, and non-participant classroom observations, which were analyzed through thematic analysis (Given, 2008). Findings were presented in relation to the central research questions which examined teachers’ and students’ beliefs about girls’ physical activity, the function of gender, barriers to girls’ physical activity, and ways to motivate them to engage in more physical activity in physical education.
