The curriculum was developed by faculty working in small interdisciplinary (cluster) groups. The cluster groups created five to nine courses in the humanities and social sciences to be offered to junior engineering majors. Four more liberal arts clusters and three science clusters for liberal and fine arts students were also nearing implementation. Evaluation indicated the project was a highly successful tool for faculty development and curriculum design, but that clusters were too small and should probably involve 8 to 10 faculty and as many as 10 to 12 courses. Student evaluations indicated satisfaction with

Theproject was designed to test the hypothesis that minority students in inner-city schoolsdo not need to be taught by teachers of the same race, ethnicity, orgender to become academically successful. Through inservice and summer workshops,teachers were exposed to the pre-eminence of alienation amongthe complex factors that largely account for the poor academic performance ofminority inner-city students. Preliminary evaluation data from classes of 24teachers who participated for at least 1 year suggest that teachers whoparticipated in Project RICE tended to be more effective with such studentsregardless of the racial background of the teacher. Students taught by ProjectRICE participants displayed significant positive changes in their attendance and achievement in school as well as in their attitudes towardlearning. One clear lesson from Project RICE was that differentschools have different cultures that affect the ways teachers teach.

  • Making Males Aggressive and Females Coy: Gender Across the Animal-Human Boundary
    Erika Lorraine Milam Making Males Aggressive and Females Coy: Gender across the Animal-Human Boundary exual selection, as conceived by Charles Darwin in the mid-nineteenth century, explained the origins of phenomena in the animal kingdom Sthat could not be attributed to natural selection-why males and females differed in their appearance and behavior and the presence of beauty. 1 To explain beauty in the natural world-from the gregarious displays of wild turkeys in the spring to the vibrant contrast of red cardinals against the winter snow-without reference to our own pleasure presented a difficult problem for biologists committed to naturalistic explanations. Darwin suggested mate choice as a solution: beauty was useful for animals because it helped them attract mates. The idea of choice vexed other zoologists, however, because it seemed to grant to animals the same ca­ pacity for aesthetic appreciation and decision making that humans enjoyed. As Donna Haraway's Primate Visions (1989) so vividly illustrates, the relationship between the animal and the human informs our scientific and cultural perceptions of what it means to be male or female today, much as it did for Darwin. In this article, I interweave two polarities, animal and human, male and female, to elucidate the evolution of biological constructions of animality and gender. In the early decades of the twen­ tieth century, few biologists found Darwin's proposed mechanism for sexual selection-female choice-plausible, as they rejected the idea that animals possessed the capacity to aesthetically evaluate and choose a mate. Animals in the early twentieth century functioned as mechanical foils against which zoologists sought to define what it is to be human.

It orients scholars to a common object of study— learning environments and educational practices—across a broad range of disciplines and methodological traditions. The future capacity to carry out this program demands heavily on the effectiveness of its graduate education programs.
