Moreover, indexes to each volume were kept by handwritten notation, in both pencil and ink, seldom in alphabetical order, and with numerous addenda and instances of inserted or corrected text. Researchers should exercise special and unusual latitude in an attempt to gather all the citations for a specific name. There are a number of variant patterns, but the most consistent apply to abbreviated versions of the name of the same person. "Cunningham, ~riggs"may be the same as "Cunningham, B." I,Dann, H. E ." may be the same as "Dann, H. H." (due to blurred or illegible handwriting). "Campbell, E. P." may be the same as "Campbell, President" (or Senator, Governor, Secretary, etc.). In many cases the index has knowingly been recreated literally from the original volume indexes with the mistakes intact to avoid an even more confusing, erroneous and unconfirmable interpretation.

BARNETT and CARYL RIVERS Are American college professors unwittingly misleading their students by teaching widely accepted ideas about men and women that are scientifically unsubstantiated? Why is the dominant narrative about the sexes one of difference, even though it receives little support from carefully designed peer-reviewed studies? One reason is that findings from a handful of small studies with nonrepresentative samples have often reported wildly overgeneralized but headline-grabbing findings about gender differences. Those findings have then been picked up by the news media -- and found their way back into the academy, where they are taught as fact. At the same time, research that tends to debunk popular ideas is often ignored by the news media.

Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math plus Art and Design transforms STEM to STEAM. STEAM is everywhere, shaping our everyday lives, and therefore making STEAM education vital to our future – and our students’ futures. STEAM is the core of the technological age in which they live, the key to their best career options, and a critical component of problem-solving and decision-making skills. Adding the “Arts” to STEM is considered by many to be a necessary adjunct to the success of STEM education. Arts education and design thinking encourage creativity, which are essential to innovation. In 2009, the U.S. Department of Labor listed the ten most wanted employees. Eight were ones with degrees in STEM fields: accounting, computer science, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, information sciences and systems, computer engineering, civil engineering, and economics and finance. According to the U.S. Department of Commerce, STEM occupations are growing at 17%, while others are growing at 9.8%. But why is STEAM education even more crucial for girls? Girls’ schools lead the way in graduating women who become our nation’s scientists, doctors, engineers, designers, and inventors.

Ed., Archivist. Introduction This is a chronicle of the major events and persons connected to Albany Academy for Girls. A longer, more detailed work, with more analysis, biographical treatment, footnotes, and references is in preparation for the upcoming bicentennial. Your suggestions as to fact, omission, or emphasis are welcome. To denote an attendee’s class year, graduates and other attendees alike, the convention “cy” is used throughout. Hyperlinks in on-line copies open supplementary material from an attached file. © 2010 John McClintock and Trustees of the Albany Academies, Albany, New York page 1 [email protected] www.archivesandcollections.org short version Early Albany, nurtured by trade, was embraced by the huge van Rensselaer domain extending on both sides of the Hudson. Its Dutch and New England inhabitants developed a business acumen that would encourage and supply the explosion in resettlement that occurred after the American Revolution. Adventurous and enterprising newcomers from New England joined Albany’s established aristocratic families, tradesmen, and outlying farmers. They came to the Hudson River Valley to facilitate financial exchange, survey the land, build the infrastructure and write the contracts of a new era: bankers, lawyers, engineers, school masters, printers. After 1797, when Albany became the capital, state officials added to the growing social complexity of the old river town. Little schools had ebbed and flowed throughout the pre- and post-revolutionary period. None became permanently rooted in Albany until the national academy movement coincided with the burst of Albany’s commercial and civic development and its new status as gateway to the west.
