See you at the event! - 2017 Texas Tech Conference on Women Team 2 About the Conference In 1984, The First All-University Conference on the Advancement of Women in Academia was held on the campus of Texas Tech University. This conference occurs each spring with a local, state and national call for papers to help promote academic research. Over the year's the theme of the conference has merged with present day discourse of examining the cultural and social construction of gender, exploring the history, experiences and contributions of women to society, and studying the influences of gender on the lives of women and men. Since 1984, when the First All-University Conference on the Advancement of Women in Academia was held, over 40 guest scholars and activist have spoken on this campus as keynote speakers. Guest scholars have included a Chief Nurse and Colonel in the US Army Reserves, Dr. Margarethe Cammermeyer, a former Vice-Presidential candidate and an inductee to the National Women’s Hall of Fame, member Winona LaDuke, as well as one of the founding members of the second wave of the women’s movement and current recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom Award, Gloria Steinem. 2017 marks the 33rd Anniversary that the Women's Studies Program at Texas Tech University has hosted a conference on the advancement of women in higher education. As we celebrate our academic program, we are proud to host research presentations by 96 presenters. Presenters come from members of University of Arizona, Michigan State University, Midwestern State University, Texas A&M University-Kingsville, Texas State University, Tulane University and Texas Tech University and the Lubbock community, including our Sister University, Angelo State University. 3 Keynote Speaker Former Congresswoman Pat Schroeder Former Congresswoman Patricia Scott Schroeder is President and Chief Executive Officer of the Association of American Publishers (AAP), the national trade organization of the U.S. book publishing industry, a post she assumed on June 1, 1997. Mrs. Schroeder left Congress undefeated in 1996 after representing Colorado's First Congressional District (Denver) in the United States House of Representatives for 24 years. For a brief period of time in 1986, she considered running for President but withdrew for lack of funds despite the fact that she ranked third in a Time magazine poll. From January to June 1997, she held the rank of Professor at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University. In addition to heading the AAP, Mrs. Schroeder also serves on the Marguerite Casey Foundation Board of Directors and the American Bar Association's Center for Human Rights Executive Committee. She also serves on various advisory committees dealing with literacy and issues affecting children and women. Born in Portland, Oregon in 1940, Mrs. Schroeder graduated magna cum laude in 1961 from the University of Minnesota while working as an insurance claims adjuster to support herself through college. Mrs. Schroeder went on to Harvard Law School, one of only 15 women in a class of more than 500 men. She earned her J.D. in 1964 and moved to Denver, Colorado with her husband, James, who in 1972 encouraged her to challenge an incumbent Republican for the House seat representing Colorado′s First Congressional District. The mother of two young children at the time she was elected to the House, Mrs. Schroeder went on to serve 12 terms. During her tenure in the House, she became the Dean of Congressional Women, co- chaired the Congressional Caucus on Women′s Issues for 10 years, and served on the House Judiciary Committee, the Post Office and Civil Service Committee, and was the first woman to serve on the House Armed Services Committee. As chair of the House Select Committee on Children, Youth and Families from 1991 to 1993, Mrs. Schroeder guided the Family and Medical Leave Act and the National Institutes of Health Revitalization Act to enactment in 1993, a fitting legislative achievement for her lifetime of work on behalf of women′s and family issues. She was also active on many military issues, expediting the National Security Committee′s vote to allow women to fly combat missions in 1991 and working to improve the situation of military families through passage of her Military Family Act in 1985. A leader in the cause of education and a champion of free speech, Mrs. Schroeder was never a single- issue candidate. As Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Courts and Intellectual Property she was one of the most knowledgeable members of Congress on copyright issues and a strong advocate for protecting intellectual property rights and for reinforcing the creative incentive for developing intellectual property. She continues this advocacy in her leadership of AAP. Mrs. Schroeder is the author of two books: Champion of the Great American Family (Random House, 1989) and 24 Years of House Work...and the Place Is Still a Mess (Andrews McMeel, 1998). She is in the National Women's Hall of Fame and the Colorado Women's Hall of Fame. 4 Guest Speaker Texas Tech Alumni, Rahel Tekola Rahel Tekola graduated Magna Cum Lade from Texas Tech University in May 2013 where she received her Bachelors in Political Science.

  • Agricultural Education Competencies: a Comparison of Master's Students at Texas Tech and Texas A&M Universities
    AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION COMPETENCIES: A COMPARISON OF MASTER’S STUDENTS AT TEXAS TECH AND TEXAS A&M UNIVERSITIES James R. Lindner, Assistant Professor Texas A&M University Matt Baker, Professor Texas Tech University Abstract This study was designed to describe Texas Tech and Texas A&M universities agricultural education master’s students’ perceived competencies. A survey of active and continuously enrolled master’s students was conducted. A 60% response rate was achieved. Data for the study were collected by mailed and online questionnaires. Study findings showed that students at both institutions had similar levels of competencies. Students had highest levels of theories, techniques, and processes that enhance the teacher-learner process for adults and youth; content skills such as reading comprehension and mathematics that provide a foundation for the acquisition of more specific skills; communication abilities such as oral comprehension, written expression, speech clarity, and auditory attention that are needed to focus attention and deliver information and communicate effectively. Students had lowest levels of theories, principles, and practices related to agricultural development in cross-national settings; technical skills such as technology design and operations analysis that are needed to use information technologies effectively; and perceptual, spatial, and memory abilities, such as speed and flexibility of closure, visualization, and recollection, that are needed to identify and make sense of complexly related material and systems.

  • Department of Psychological Sciences Fall 2017 Newsletter
    FALL 2017 From the Department Chair, Dr. Robert Morgan The 2017-2018 academic year promises to be one of opportunities and challenges. The year started off tragically with the fatal shooting of TTU Police Officer Floyd East Jr. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the East family. This devastating incident was obviously very stressful for the university, including our students, some of whom were locked in their research labs during the campus-wide lock down. During such times it is essential that communities pull together and I’m pleased to report that our faculty and graduate students eagerly assisted in university efforts as they volunteered to help with grief and stress response groups offered across campus. Our department’s faculty and students saw an opportunity to serve, and I am very proud of their compassionate efforts. On a brighter note, we welcome two new faculty members to the department: Ryne Sherman, Associate Professor in Social Psychology, and Paul Ingram, Assistant Professor in Counseling Psychology. They introduce themselves in the video links included in this newsletter. Regarding our building, well, we face more challenges. Although we have the plans finalized for an expansion of our current building and we anticipated breaking ground on the expansion in February 2017, we were ultimately over budget, resulting in a delay. Dean Lindquist is initiating a capital campaign to raise funds for the additional money needed to finance the expansion. I hope you will be contacted by the college, but if not, and you wish to contribute to our fundraising efforts, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.
