Regardless of an individual’s willingness to participate | The “choice” to participate in a hazing activity is deceptive because it’s them regardless of a person’s willingness to usually paired with peer pressure and coercive power dynamics that (Allan & Madden, 2008) are common in the process of gaining membership in some groups. participate.” Circumstances in which pressure or coercion exist can prevent true (Allan & Madden, 2008) consent.

  • Assessing the Efficacy of Analytical Definitions in Hazing Education
    Assessing the Efficacy of Analytical Definitions in Hazing Education by Paul Robert Kittle, Jr. A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama December 8, 2012 Keywords: hazing, definition, cognitive, extensional, analytical, bystander Copyright 2012 by Paul Robert Kittle, Jr. Approved by David C. DiRamio, Chair, Associate Professor of Educational Foundations, Leadership and Technology James E. Witte, Professor of Educational Foundations, Leadership and Technology Maria Witte, Associate Professor of Educational Foundations, Leadership and Technology Abstract Hazing is a problem that persists on college campuses and in high schools. According to Nuwer (2011) between 1970 and 2006, there was at least one hazing-related death each year on a college campus. Hazing education and prevention programs, such as speaker series, anti-hazing marketing campaigns, policy enforcement efforts, and sanctioning, which are frequently grounded in an extensional definition of hazing, have been present on college campuses for the past 20 years, yet the incidents of hazing are on the rise (Ellsworth, 2006; Nuwer, 2004). The literature repeatedly states that, due to the lack of a common definition, awareness and prevention efforts are often unsuccessful at increasing students’ awareness of hazing activities or reducing the likelihood that hazing activities will occur (Allan & Madden, 2008; Ellsworth, 2006; Hollmann, 2002; Shaw, 1992; Smith, 2009). Allan and Madden (2008) found that 91 percent of students who have experienced hazing do not identify themselves as being hazed. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether or not there were differences in students’ ability to identify hazing activities after treatment which consisted of reading either an extensional or analytical definition of hazing.

What they said... 'I certainly felt that the values I expressed and the action I took would have the overwhelming endorsement of Australians' Malcolm Turnbull, Prime Minister of Australia, commenting on his ban on sexual relations between ministers and staffers 'It's a basic principle of human rights that people can have relationships with whom they like' Ronnie Fox, a British employment law specialist from Fox and Partners The issue at a glance On February 15, 2018, the Prime Minister, Malcolm Turnbull, made an addition to the Australian Government's 'Statement of Ministerial Standards'. The addition states, 'Ministers must not engage in sexual relations with their staff. Doing so will constitute a breach of this code.' https://www.pmc.gov.au/sites/default/files/publications/statement-ministerial-standards.pdf The addition to the Ministerial Standards came after the Daily Telegraph revealed that the Deputy Prime Minister, Barnaby Joyce, had been having a sexual relationship with his former media adviser, Vikki Campion. On February 7, 2018, the Daily Telegraph published a front page story reporting that Mr Joyce and Ms Campion were expecting a child together. https://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/nsw /deputy-pm-barnaby-joyce-and-exstaffer-and-journalist-vikki-campion-expecting-a-baby/news- story/affccfbe8df768e5b9ddc9920154be6b Debate has since raged as to whether Mr Joyce had used his position to find alternative employment for Ms Campion on other ministers' staff.

Discourses of Resistance and Containment in Women’s Use of Male Homoerotic Media Doctor of Philosophy, 2019 Nicole Cormier, Clinical Psychology, Ryerson University Very little academic work to date has investigated women’s use of male homoerotic media (for notable exceptions, see Marks, 1996; McCutcheon & Bishop, 2015; Neville, 2015; Ramsay, 2017; Salmon & Symons, 2004). The purpose of this dissertation is to examine the potential role of male homoerotic media, including gay pornography, slash fiction, and Yaoi, in facilitating women’s sexual desire, fantasy, and subjectivity – and the ways in which this expansion is circumscribed by dominant discourses regulating women’s gendered and sexual subjectivities.

The Student Committee to Review Enrollment at Madison (Scream) wants to keep enrollment at a level JMU can handle, said founder Stephan Fogleman, who also is secretary of the Student Government Association. "The reason I chose JMU was that it was not too big and not too small," Fogleman said. "But [JMU] is real close to losing that attractive feature." The overcrowded conditions have made JMU impersonal, and "almost like a corporation now," he said. Scream's members consist of JMU sophomores and freshmen who are active in the Student Government Association, since "these arc the people who will Staff photo by LAWRENCE JACKSON have to deal with the enrollment issues," Fogleman A runner treks along JMU's rain-streaked track Sunday afternoon. said.

But as young people spend more of their lives childless and unpartnered, scholars recognize a dearth of academic insight into the processes by which single adults form romantic relationships in the lengthening years between adolescence and betrothal. As the average age of first marriage creeps upwards, this lacuna inhibits sociological appreciation for the ways in which class, gender and sexuality entangle in the lives of single adults to condition sexual behavior and how these behaviors might, in turn, contribute to the reproduction of social inequality.

  • Francis Brabazon Collection: Significance Assessment Report
    Francis Brabazon Collection: Significance Assessment Report Dr Ray Kerkhove Woombye, 2008 1 INDEX Collection Background…………………………….. 3 A. Statement of Significance……………………..... 4 B. Significance by Comparative Criteria…………. 15 C. Australian & Queensland Heritage Themes…… 17 D. Recommendations (Implementation)………….. 20 Appendixes………………………………………... 21 2 Collection Background The collection began as the personal library of Baron Frederick von Frankenberg, which was accumulated in Germany and other parts of Europe c.1900-1920s. It was initially housed at Camden (outside Sydney, NSW). The library formed the core resource for Australia’s first Sufi group and other persons interested in the arts and spirituality at that time. From this phase, the collection gained early editions of Inayat Khan’s works and the only extant material on the early Sufi Society in Australia. In 1950, the Modernist poet Francis Brabazon inherited the collection when he succeeded the Baron as head of the Sufi Society. Thereafter, and until 1959, the collection was housed in the centre Francis was constructing at Beacon’s Hill (Sydney). It continued to be used by Francis and his associates. Francis also added his own library, which consisted of books and recordings he acquired in Melbourne, New York and elsewhere. Some of these acquisitions reflect Francis’ role in early Australian Modernism. This enlarged it into an unusually comprehensive collection on the world’s literary and scriptural texts, which Francis then utilized in the creation of his own poetry, prose and music. Also from this period came many notes and drafts of Francis’ early works. Between 1959 and 1969, Francis Brabazon resided in India with his spiritual master, Meher Baba.

  • A Life of Thinking the Andersonian Tradition in Australian Philosophy a Chronological Bibliography
    own. One of these, of the University Archive collections of Anderson material (2006) owes to the unstinting co-operation of of Archives staff: Julia Mant, Nyree Morrison, Tim Robinson and Anne Picot. I have further added material from other sources: bibliographical A Life of Thinking notes (most especially, James Franklin’s 2003 Corrupting the The Andersonian Tradition in Australian Philosophy Youth), internet searches, and compilations of Andersonian material such as may be found in Heraclitus, the pre-Heraclitus a chronological bibliography Libertarian Broadsheet, the post-Heraclitus Sydney Realist, and Mark Weblin’s JA and The Northern Line. The attempt to chronologically line up Anderson’s own work against the work of James Packer others showing some greater or lesser interest in it, seems to me a necessary move to contextualise not only Anderson himself, but Australian philosophy and politics in the twentieth century and beyond—and perhaps, more broadly still, a realist tradition that Australia now exports to the world. Introductory Note What are the origins and substance of this “realist tradition”? Perhaps the best summary of it is to be found in Anderson’s own The first comprehensive Anderson bibliography was the one reading, currently represented in the books in Anderson’s library constructed for Studies in Empirical Philosophy (1962). It listed as bequeathed to the University of Sydney. I supply an edited but Anderson’s published philsophical work and a fair representation unabridged version of the list of these books that appears on the of his published social criticism.
