The foundation of Fairmount CollegeMcNew, Johnetta Losh 04 1900 (has links)
It is my opinion that few people of this vicinity
know of the great struggle and courageous sacrifices made
by the founders of Fairmount College, now the University
of Wichita. Thus far some material has been collected,
but very little has been done toward the compilation of
this work. It has, therefore, been my purpose to write
about the beginning of Fairmount College. I believe that
the story of Fairmount should be preserved, and in this
work, I have made a beginning by writing the history of
the school to the year 1907. This period includes the
plans for starting the school, erecting a building, and
the administration of Dr. N. J . Morrison, the first college
president. / Preface -- The Wichita ladies' college -- "Fairmount, the beautiful" -- Fairmount Institute -- The faculty and curriculum -- From institute to college -- Fairmount Library -- Dr. Morrison, First President -- Dr. Morrison's administration -- Activities at Fairmount -- Bibliography. / Thesis (M.A.)--Wichita State University, Dept. of History, 1949

Restraints on reporting conflict in West PapuaBensemann, Paul Morel January 2013 (has links)
This is as much an experiment in investigative reporting as it is a thesis. It explores the possibility of carrying out “research journalism” on a specific issue in a New Zealand academic environment, after a failure to complete the mission within newsrooms.
The thesis debates theoretical and practical “restraints” to reporting this conflict and New Zealand’s role in it. Such restraints might include the degree of conservatism and intractability in Western traditions and practices of both the mainstream media, and of the other potential “commentating power”, universities.

Chapter one: Founding and establishing an imperial university: the first twenty-five yearsMaylam, Paul January 2017 (has links)
Critics of South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) that sat in the late 1990s have sometimes pointed to its failure to examine the role of larger collectivities in colluding with or acquiescing in the apartheid system. Universities, for instance, have been singled out for their failure both to make submissions to the TRC and to acknowledge openly their past shortcomings during the apartheid era. The historically white, English-medium universities – among them Rhodes University – liked to project themselves as liberal institutions. This book puts this self-representation to the test by looking critically at the operation and functioning of Rhodes University during the segregation and apartheid eras. This study is one of very few that recounts and analyses the whole history of a South African university in a single volume. It covers the founding of Rhodes University College (as it was then called) in 1904, traces its development over the decades, through the attainment of independent status in 1951, ending with a full consideration of the transformation challenges that the university has faced in the post-apartheid era. This is a critical study that points to some of the university’s past failures. But there is also a celebratory dimension, as the book highlights some of the achievements and successes of those who have worked and studied at Rhodes University over the past 112 or so years. / Please note that only the first chapter of the book is available online.

Makt och vanmakt i fadersväldet : Studentpolitik i Uppsala 1780-1850Sjöberg, Johan January 2002 (has links)
From the end of the 18th century, the view that youth had a political role to play spread among students in Europe. This view was directly opposed to the paternalistic authoritarian regimes governing the old universities like that at Uppsala, which had been organised as patriarchal corporations for some two hundred years. The thesis deals with the attempts of Uppsala students, despite their lack of formal power, to influence society and their own university. It focuses on the political culture manifested by the students, i.e., the forms that their political action took and the values that were involved. With a view to broadening the perception of student politics, the thesis examines student political action in relation to the prevailing distribution of power and the social settings within the university. The phenomenon of students participating in politics challanged the traditional patriarchal view of the social role appropriate for the young. Overt student politics were pursued principally from the base provided by the new student societies. The thesis includes a prosopographical study of the students involved in such societies. The overt opposition and organisational endeavours were, however, just the tip of the student political iceberg. Within the patriarchy, students were obliged to resort to covert politics, such as creating a commotion outside professors’ homes, failure to perform acts of courtesy and other anonymous or ambiguous actions. The mid 19th century saw a greater participation of students in open political interaction. At the same time, the need to comment and explain their political actions in the press inevitably deprived students of opportunities for surreptitious political action, and the phenomenon of covert student politics petered out. The conflict between the old university and the new student organisations was thus reflected in the relation between open and covert student politics, and shaped the development of these two spheres of activity.

A Comparative Profile Study of the Industrial Arts Major at North Texas State UniversityWill, Harrision 05 1900 (has links)
The problem of this study is to determine a profile of the typical industrial arts major at North Texas State University, based on scores made on the American College Testing Program Battery, and to compare this profile with profiles of four other local subgroups. ACT scores representing nine categories of student information were analyzed from a total sampling of 286 North Texas State University students of the Industrial Arts Department, School of Business Administration, School of Education, and College of Arts and Sciences. Data were from tests administered during regular ACT testing sessions in 1966-67.

Images of Eight Branches of Journalism Perceived by Journalism Students at North Texas State UniversityChoo, Kwang Yung 08 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to specify quantitatively the meanings and images of eight branches of journalism as perceived by a selected group of college students majoring in journalism. The problem of this study was to identify the locations of these meanings, using a semantic differential, as points in a three-dimensional semantic space consisting of evaluation, potency, and activity dimensions. The study was also designed to test two hypotheses. Hypothesis One was that there would be a significant difference between the male and female groups in their perception of the same concept about a journalism branch. Hypothesis Two was that there would be a significant difference between two concepts perceived by the members of the same sex group.
