The Review, Spring 1988 SPRING 1988 Wang donates record $160,000 gift Wang Laboratories, Inc. and Informatics, Inc. have donated to the College of Law computing equipment and software with a total value of $160,000, the largest single gift ever received by the College. With this equipment, not only has the school greatly expanded its internal computer capability, but also faculty will be able to teach College of Law students how to use computers in the practice of law. According to Associate Dean Paul Van Booven, who worked closely with Wang and Informatics in implementing the gift, "The College will now be able to integrate computer concepts into existing courses, as well as create new courses in law office management and technology." Also, the College plans to make the equipment available for demonstrations to alumni and others in the legal profession interested in UK President David Roselle announces the College of Law's gift of computer equipment and software. learning more about how computers can help them in their practice.

  • Libraries Address the Challenges Of
    Presented at the 3rd International Conference on Asynchronous Learning Networks, Oct. 5, 1997, blue=external Web link LIBRARIES ADDRESS THE CHALLENGES OF ASYNCHRONOUS LEARNING Joanne Eustis Gail McMillan Director, Planning and Program Review Director, Scholarly Communications Project Information Systems, Virginia Tech University Libraries, Virginia Tech Institutional Context In recent times most institutions of higher education have had to reconsider policies and procedures in the face of closer scrutiny. Traditions such as tenure, shared governance, and the focus on conventional degree programs are being challenged and modified as a result of pressure from governing boards and state legislators. Rising costs and declining budgets demand increased efficiency while changing demographics require programs that are responsive to a more diverse population of learners. The result is that academia is being compelled to operate more like industry in considering the needs of its clients. Reductions in state support at a number of public universities combined with additional regulation are leading to a renegotiation of institutional roles as state agencies. Both the benefits and constraints that state support imposes are being reconsidered in light of new economic realities. Computing and Communications Technologies While changing technology is not the cause of these phenomena, computing and telecommunications technologies are perceived by many to have the potential to deliver asynchronous instruction that will enable higher education to respond to its critics, meet assessment requirements, and garner sufficient revenue to remain viable in a new century. In response to user needs and demands coupled with changing computer technologies, libraries, in their role as the major information provider for institutions of higher education, have moved beyond automated access tools such as online catalogs and indexed databases.

  • WOMEN and the MAA Women's Participation in the Mathematical Association of America Has Varied Over Time And, Depending On
    WOMEN AND THE MAA Women’s participation in the Mathematical Association of America has varied over time and, depending on one’s point of view, has or has not changed at all over the organization’s first century. Given that it is difficult for one person to write about the entire history, we present here three separate articles dealing with this issue. As the reader will note, it is difficult to deal solely with the question of women and the MAA, given that the organization is closely tied to the American Mathematical Society and to other mathematics organizations. One could therefore think of these articles as dealing with the participation of women in the American mathematical community as a whole. The first article, “A Century of Women’s Participation in the MAA and Other Organizations” by Frances Rosamond, was written in 1991 for the book Winning Women Into Mathematics, edited by Patricia Clark Kenschaft and Sandra Keith for the MAA’s Committee on Participation of Women. The second article, “Women in MAA Leadership and in the American Mathematical Monthly” by Mary Gray and Lida Barrett, was written in 2011 at the request of the MAA Centennial History Subcommittee, while the final article, “Women in the MAA: A Personal Perspective” by Patricia Kenschaft, is a more personal memoir that was written in 2014 also at the request of the Subcommittee. There are three minor errors in the Rosamond article. First, it notes that the first two African- American women to receive the Ph.D. in mathematics were Evelyn Boyd Granville and Marjorie Lee Browne, both in 1949.
