  • Bovine Benefactories: an Examination of the Role of Religion in Cow Sanctuaries Across the United States
    BOVINE BENEFACTORIES: AN EXAMINATION OF THE ROLE OF RELIGION IN COW SANCTUARIES ACROSS THE UNITED STATES _______________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board _______________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ________________________________________________________________ by Thomas Hellmuth Berendt August, 2018 Examing Committee Members: Sydney White, Advisory Chair, TU Department of Religion Terry Rey, TU Department of Religion Laura Levitt, TU Department of Religion Tom Waidzunas, External Member, TU Deparment of Sociology ABSTRACT This study examines the growing phenomenon to protect the bovine in the United States and will question to what extent religion plays a role in the formation of bovine sanctuaries. My research has unearthed that there are approximately 454 animal sanctuaries in the United States, of which 146 are dedicated to farm animals. However, of this 166 only 4 are dedicated to pigs, while 17 are specifically dedicated to the bovine. Furthermore, another 50, though not specifically dedicated to cows, do use the cow as the main symbol for their logo. Therefore the bovine is seemingly more represented and protected than any other farm animal in sanctuaries across the United States. The question is why the bovine, and how much has religion played a role in elevating this particular animal above all others. Furthermore, what constitutes a sanctuary? Does

Introductions; Who/What is AIA/Flint; tour format STATION #1.1 – Saginaw Street/Saginaw Trail Native Americans - Architect Saginaw Street, Dixie Highway, M24, M1, Woodward Avenue, call it what you will, but is was originally known as the Saginaw Trail, one of only three public thoroughfares in MI that were originally Indian Trails dating back at least 300 years; one of the oldest known Indian trails in North American. It may also be the oldest in the US to bear its original name. In part it was the reason Flint was settled by the Europeans in the early 1800’s. The Native Americans, who created the trail would use it to not only to bring furs to trading posts in Flint, Saginaw and Detroit, The Saginaw Trail runs from Detroit to Saginaw through Pontiac and Flint. In 1816 Michigan Territorial government authorized the building of a road from Detroit to Saginaw following the trail. In 1829 it became a military road. It evolved from a dirt path to gravel, to a corduroy road in 1831 to 1’ thick wood blocks and finally to the bricks we see today. The Detroit to Flint section was finished with the wood blocks in 1833, and the Flint to Saginaw section was finished in 1841.

    Transportation Research Record 1036 19 Forecasting Future Transit Route Ridership HERBERT S. LEVINSON ABSTRACT This paper contains an analysis of the ridership potentials of various public transportation options for the Michigan Avenue Corridor in East Lansing (.!_). Ridership projections were based on: corridor population and employment growth; changes in service levels resulting from the various options: and effects of changes in gasoline price, parking costs, and increased traffic congestion. An origin-destination matrix of bus riders was derived from on-and-off counts. Differential growth rates for various sections of the corridor were developed and applied to this derived matrix to derive future bus trip interchange pat­ terns. Elasticity factors were applied to specific trip linkages to estimate the impacts of reduced travel times for both the $0.35 fare in effect during 1979-1980, and the $0.50 fare placed in effect during June, 1981. Sensitivity analyses were conducted to quantify the impacts of changes in gasoline costs and availability, increased traffic congestion, and changes in downtown parking policy. Ridership estimates were developed for 1985 and 2000 for five service options. The daily ridership would increase from 6,235 passengers in 1980 (with a $0. 35 fare) to between 7, 200 and 9 ,ODO passengers by year 2000 for a $0. 50 fare. Peak-hour one-way riders at the maximum load point would rise from 440 passengers in 1980 to 860 passengers by year 2000 depending on the service option. The ridership forecasting methods have applicability in other urban areas as well. They are particularly valuable where it is reasonable to assume that transit will retain its share of the corridor travel market (i.e., short­ range forecasts).
