The Ohio State University 197^ Approved by Reading Committeet Christen T. Jonassen Simon Dinitz Alfred C. Clarke Adviser Department or Sociology ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS It would be impossible to acknowledge by name all of those who influenced and assisted in this research. There­ fore, I wish to generally thank each individual who helped or supported this project in any way. I am particularly grateful to all of those who consented to be interviewed and wish to acknowledge for special thanks the clients of Faith Mission who willingly opened up their lives so that we might better understand them. Additionally, the contributions of several indi­ viduals are deserving of special recognition. Foremost, I wish to thank Christen T. Jonassen who as teacher, adviser and research chairman, provided me a solid base for completing the research and invaluable guidance throughout the preparation of this paper and my entire graduate career. To professors Simon Dinitz and Alfred C. Clarke I give thanks for continued support and guid­ ance. No finer teachers than these three have I had the pleasure of working with. It must be said that none of this research would have been possible without the permission and cooper- ii ation of Arthur Bayse, Executive Director of Faith Mission. I am sincerely grateful to him for the many hours he spent answering my questions and coordinating my activities. To all of the officers and directors of Faith Mission goes my appreciation for their approval and support. Tc my good frxends Barbara and Jchn Bardc go my warmest and sincerest thanks for putting up with me eating, sleeping and running in and out of their apartment during the period of my research. The fact that we are still good friends after several weeks of two disserta­ tions being worked on under one roof is sure evidence of the strength of our friendship. I should also like to thank Bob Maust and his wife Ruby for their assistance in interviewing and for their hospitality during my numerous excursions to Columbus from Gettysburg while completing this project. Thanks also to Jim Delong for his interviewing assistance and other kind acts that permitted me brief respites from the research schedule. Lastly, I wish to apologize to my daughter Terri Patricia and my wife, Martha, for the times we could not spend together because of this project and to thank them for their tolerance, understanding and love. Without these and my wife's "nimble fingers" I seriously doubt I would iii have completed this project so swiftly and successfully. I promise to be a better father and husband in the future. Because of their unselfish sacrifice, I dedicate this paper to Martha and Terri. iv VITA February 4, 194-2......... Born - Baltimore, Maryland 1964-................ B.

  • EEL RIVER VALLEY by Victoria B
    EEL RIVER VALLEY by Victoria B. Engstrom Pilgrim Society Notes, Series One, Number 23, 1976 First, there is the river. Its headwaters are springs and small ponds above Russell Mill Pond, feeding into the pond. It leaves this pond by going over a dam about 20 feet high and runs down through a culvert under route 3, then widens to become Hayden’s Pond. This pond is also held back by a dam where the water falls about 10 feet from a flume into a pool at its base, then wanders down to Sandwich Road, goes under the bridge, and is joined by its tributary, Shingle Brook, about 500 yards downstream. Shingle Brook originates with Cold Bottom and Forges Pond, flows down to and under the bridge on Old Sandwich Road, and widens to become Howland’s Pond. It drops over the dam at Clifford Road, goes under the road and winds through the meadow to meet with Eel River, where they become one stream. Then, as Eel River, the stream flows roughly parallel with Clifford Road, under the River Street bridge, past Plimoth Plantation, under the Warren Avenue bridge, and then about a half mile inside the beach to its mouth below Manter’s Point. This is a happy river. Men and boys fish in it, children row on it, catch herring from it, and fall into it. Birds of infinite variety nest in the shrubbery along its banks; ducks find shelter under the old willow trees. Migrating geese and blue herons rest and feed, and I have seen a deer drinking from the bank on an autumn evening.

Specifically it was found that among three types of techno­ logical settings, the mechanized production system is most conducive to worker alienation and the craft production and automated production r systems are much less so. Alienation is conceived as the social-psychological separation of a subject from some.referent as a result of certain conditions. Functional differentiation* is related to workers' feelings of alienation and the work situation is the referent from which a person is alienated. The feelings of alienation occur when the worker perceives that the structure of the workplace limits his job-related autonomy and control (powerlessness); cuttails knowledge of inter­ relationships among jobs. (meaninglessness); and limits :the *Functional differentiation is used interchangably with division of labor and functional specialization.

Geiger Distinguished Professor of Higher Education Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee In Charge of Graduate Programs in Higher Education Lisa R. Lattuca Professor of Higher Education Roger L. Williams Affiliate Professor of Higher Education William A. Blair Professor of History * Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii Abstract This dissertation examines the formation, reformation, and standardization of land-grant colleges in the Northeastern United States during the last four decades of the nineteenth century. It is a history that explores the turbulent origins of land-grant colleges in Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Vermont, Pennsylvania, New York, and New Jersey. A coalition of gentlemen farmers from state agricultural societies, scientists trained in German universities, and economically-minded statesman led the region‘s land-grant movement in the 1860s and 1870s. Men like Daniel Coit Gilman, Evan Pugh, Samuel Johnson, Andrew Dickson White, and Justin Morrill were intent on building institutions that could nurture scientific study and advance agricultural, industrial, and national development. These educational reformers wanted colleges with advanced curricula and stiff admissions standards, which would graduate leaders for a new economy in science, engineering, and business.
