The Cowl That He Wanted Austin to Attack the Basket More This Year, Hopefully Taking Advantage of a Career .806 Free Throw Percentage Vol.The LXI No. 7 Providence CollegeCowl - Providence, Rhode Island October 14,1996 Awesome Austin Austin Croshere and the Rest of the Boys Take on the BIG EAST By Cory R. McGann '98 Sports Editor This is the year for the Provi­ dence College Friars. All the pieces have seemingly come together to point to a very successful upcoming season for the men’s basketball team. Head Coach Pete Gillen likes to use the word “flexibility” when referring to his team this year, but the only thing the Friars will flex this year will be their strengh. They boast solid players at every position, usually going two deep. They can play the half-court game, they can score, and they can run. My God, can they run. The success of the season, how­ ever, rests mightly on the shoul­ ders of power forward and All- American candidate Austin Croshere. A.C. will be one of the tri-captains for the year and will have to be a leader in some of the stat columns as well. “He is a big part of our team, a big focus.... last year that was new to him, it was a lot of pressure,” comments Gillen. The feisty head coach told The Cowl that he wanted Austin to attack the basket more this year, hopefully taking advantage of a career .806 free throw percentage. At the other forward position will be the ever-popular Derrick “Flight” Brown. D-Flight showed glimpses of what is to come last year when he averaged 14.8 points per game (ppg) and 6.8 rebounds per game (rpg) in only his first sea­ son wearing the Black and White. Gillen used many adjectives to describe Brown, such as “consis­ tent," but Coach hit the nail on the head when he put forth that “Flight is a warrior.” At center will be big Ruben Garces. A popular player among the Civic Center crowd (they’re not booing, they’re chanting "Ruben"), he wasn’t as popular continued on page 4 INSIDE: Bob Dole, Bill Clinton, George Blaney and Matt Gelb answer the question ’’What will it take for the Friars to get SHAQ-LED: Austin Croshere '97, seen here showing Dream Team member Shaquille O'Neal the door, will lead the Friars to battle into the NCAA against the Big East giants.

  • Voluntary Organizations for Professional Evaluation (Vopes) Grew from 15 in the 1990S to More Than 155 by 2012
    In recent decades, civil society has increasingly played a central and active role in promoting greater accountability for public action, through the use of evaluation. National and regional Voluntary Organizations for Professional Evaluation (VOPEs) grew from 15 in the 1990s to more than 155 by 2012. Acknowledging the enhanced role of civil society, UNICEF and IOCE launched EvalPartners. for Professional Evaluation Organizations Voluntary This is a global initiative that promotes coordinated efforts among development organiza- tions, governments and civil society, with the aim of strengthening civil society evalua- tion capacity, in order to fortify the voice of civil society in policy-making and in promoting equity-focused and gender-responsive evaluations. EvalPartners was met with a surge of enthusiasm evidenced in the joining of 27 members, including all regional VOPEs, within a few months of its launch. The goal of the EvalPartners Initiative is to contribute to the enhancement of the capacity of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) – notably, VOPEs – to influence policy-makers, other key stakeholders and public opinion, so that public policies are evidence-informed and support equity in development processes and results. The expected outcome of EvalPartners is three-fold: • VOPEs are stronger. Their institutional and organizational capacities are enhanced. • VOPEs are more influential. They are better able to play strategic roles in strengthening the enabling environment for evaluation within their countries. In so doing, they help to improve national evaluation systems and to promote the use of evaluation evidence in the development of policies geared towards effective, equitable and gender-equality responsive development results. • VOPEs develop sustainable strategies to enhance the evaluation skills, knowledge and capacities of their members, and of evaluators more widely, to manage and conduct credible and useful evaluations.

ARTICLES It’s Not About the Money: THE ROLE OF PREFERENCES, COGNITIVE BIASES, AND HEURISTICS AMONG PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES Michael A. McCann† I. INTRODUCTION Professional athletes are often regarded as selfish, greedy, and out-of-touch with regular people. They hire agents who are vilified for negotiating employment contracts that occasionally yield compensation in excess of national gross domestic products.1 Professional athletes are thus commonly assumed to most value economic remuneration, rather than the “love of the game” or some other intangible, romanticized inclination. Lending credibility to this intuition is the rational actor model; a law and economic precept which presupposes that when individuals are presented with a set of choices, they rationally weigh costs and benefits, and select the course of † Assistant Professor of Law, Mississippi College School of Law; LL.M., Harvard Law School; J.D., University of Virginia School of Law; B.A., Georgetown University.
