Award-winning author and illustrator Mark Teague tells his humorous version of "The Three Little Pigs" with a zany twist! Three pigs spend their money on different things: potato chips, sody-pop, and building supplies. It comes as no surprise that a wolf is able to blow down the first two pigs' houses. When the wolf can't blow down the third pig's brick house, everyone comes together and the fun begins. The first two pigs give him potato chips and sody-pop, and the third pig makes everyone a healthy meal. Since only one pig has a house left, the other two pigs and the wolf move in with her.

Study 1 solicited open-ended responses regarding experiences with ghosting and explored associations between ghosting and a variety of dispositional and situational variables. Study 2 investigated differences in the process of relationship dissolution and post-breakup outcomes as a function of breakup role (disengager or recipient) and breakup strategy (ghosting or direct conversation) across two samples.

    Wednesday, October 24, 2012__________ Sacred Heart University - Fairfield, Conn. Volume 30, Issue 6 Student’s sudden death shakes Sacred Heart community Dana Maltese Assistant Editor There is a quietness throughout campus as tragedy has hit close to home this past week. Freshman Will Cado- gan was found dead in his dorm room late afternoon on Thursday, Oct. 18 after suffering from unknown causes. He was 19-years-old and lived in the Business Living Learning Community on the fifth floor of Roncolli Hall. Police are currently investigating the direct cause of death but do not feel it is suspicious. Cadogan had no pre­ viously known heart defects. Although he was an undeclared major he got a jump start on his career at Sacred Heart while attending the busi­ ness pre-fall program called "Mind Your Business". Despite his short tenure here at Sacred Heart Uni­ versity, news of his untimely death spread to hundreds of students over the course of three hours and merited over 750 students to attend a prayer service in his honor at the Chapel of the Holy Spirit. Father Jerry and Dr. David Cop­ pola, Vice President of Strategic Plaiming, led the service and reflection while President Petillo read a poem titled “Death is nothing at all,” by Heiuy Scott Holland, to the community. The church pews and vestibule of the chapel were packed with students grieving over this loss for the com- mimity and remained silent throughout the service. Af­ Over 750 students congregate in the chapel to pray and remember Will. terwards, everyone congregated outside on the quad and stood in a circle, holding lit candles and offering prayers.

    Performing Self through Social Media: How African American Males (Re) Construct Their Identities, Self-Presentations, and Relationships Offline and Online DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ronald L. Parker, B.S., M.A. Graduate Program in Educational Policy and Leadership The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Richard J. Voithofer, Ph.D., Advisor & Co-Chair James L. Moore, III, Ph.D., Co-Chair Osei Appiah, Ph.D. Copyrighted by Ronald L. Parker 2015 Abstract This qualitative study investigated how adult African American undergraduate males at a predominantly white institution (PWI) (re)constructed their identity, self- presentation, and relationships on Facebook (www.facebook.com), a popular social network site (SNS). The results of the study provided insight into how undergraduate African American males integrated their internal and external self and social media to construct and represent “who they are” on-campus and on this particular social network site. In addition, the results revealed how the participants created, managed, and facilitated their relationships in both environments, while providing useful insights into how they endured the historically negative images that have tried to define this population. Grounded theory methods including constant comparison analysis, were used to interpret the interview and supportive data from twenty-one (21) undergraduate African American male participants
