    IMPACT OF MEMBERSHIP IN BLACK GREEK LETTER ORGANIZATIONS ON STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES By Reginald C. Cooper, Jr. Hinsdale Bernard David W. Rausch Professor Professor (Chair) (Committee Member) Deanna Anderson Brian J. O’Leary Assistant Vice Chancellor Associate Professor (Committee Member) (Committee Member) i IMPACT OF MEMBERSHIP IN BLACK GREEK LETTER ORGANIZATIONS ON STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES By Reginald C. Cooper, Jr. A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Doctor of Education The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Chattanooga, Tennessee August 2018 ii Copyright © 2018 By Reginald C. Cooper, Jr. All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT This study examined the perceived relevance of Black Greek Letter Organizations (BGLOs) through the perspectives of undergraduate student populations at four target universities located in the State of Tennessee. This study also compared student learning outcomes of Black students who were members of BGLOs against Black students who did not belong to BGLOs Three research questions were addressed: (1) Is there a significant difference in the self- reported GPAs of Black students who are members of BGLOs versus those who are not members of BGLOs? (2) Is there a significant difference in student perceptions of the relevance of BGLOs based on campus location, GPA category, class standing, ethnicity, status, gender, Greek affiliation, and type of institution (i.e., historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) or predominantly White institutions (PWIs)? (3) For those students who are members of a fraternity or sorority, is there a significant difference in their perceptions of the relevance of BGLOs based on the organization’s governing council? A researcher-developed instrument was used to measure student perceptions on five scales.

You may listen to highlights from the Board meeting on your computer or listendirectly on iTunes. Subscribe to the podcast, or choose a program and listenin. A MESSAGE FROM SUPERVISOR STORCK Today is a great day to be a Mount Vernon District resident,and before you scroll any further, I'd like to share with you two excitingdevelopments that occurred at the July 25th Board of Supervisors meeting. Novus Kings Crossing, a proposal to redevelop a 5.29-acre site in the Penn Daw Community Business Center, was unanimously approved by the Board. The developer will construct a high- quality, mixed-use multi-family building with 350 units and unique onsite park amenities. This new development with Cafritz Interests and Novus Residences creates a unique opportunity to enhance revitalization on Richmond Highway, bring development partners to our corridor, and create an economic investment in our community. The project aligns closely with our goals of Embark Richmond Highway, which calls for increased density around the Community Business Centers to support Bus Rapid Transit and shows that the Richmond Highway corridor is pivoting to the 21st century. Also, after working closely with county staff over the past few months, I was pleased to announce that Fairfax County acquired 2.32 acres of land located at 6318 Quander Road in the Mount Vernon District.

  • Washington Capital of the Union | September 2016
    Essential Civil War Curriculum | Kenneth J. Winkle, Washington Capital of the Union | September 2016 Washington Capital of the Union By Kenneth J. Winkle, University of Nebraska-Lincoln ashington, DC, was the most strategic and vulnerable city in the Union during the Civil War. Sandwiched between the Confederate state of Virginia to the W west and the border slave state of Maryland to the east, Washington sat astride the Civil War’s most critical and active military front, the Eastern Theater. The Union army used the city to mobilize and supply the Army of the Potomac, defend the eastern seaboard, and launch military thrusts toward Richmond. Believing that the loss of the Union’s capital would lead to immediate defeat, the Confederacy targeted Washington throughout the war. From the First Battle of Bull Run onward, Confederate armies repeatedly threatened Washington as part of General Robert E. Lee’s strategy of taking the war to the enemy. Lee’s advances into Maryland in 1862 and Pennsylvania in 1863 were primarily designed to threaten Washington, and in July 1864 Lieutenant General Jubal Anderson Early launched a direct attack on the city, which was repulsed. Throughout the war, the Lincoln administration took unprecedented actions to secure the capital against Confederate attack and suppress internal subversion at the hands of secessionist sympathizers. Meanwhile, the indirect impact of the war posed novel challenges as well as opportunities. The tripling of the city’s population produced a public health crisis that promoted epidemic diseases, including smallpox. Turning Washington into the central site of medical treatment for sick and wounded soldiers in the Eastern Theater, the army established more than one hundred military hospitals in the capital, innovating new approaches to medical care and hospital design.
