Download or read book Transitions written by John W Anderson and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gathers stories of transformations, which occurred to the land, people, and communities of the anthracite coal region in general and Mt. Carmel in particular. It tells how Eastern Europeans were recruited by giant railroad companies to work (and often die) in their dangerous mines. It also shows how these people who were at first alienated by their new surroundings soon developed confidence and pride in their work, and built a supportive community that survived the boom and bust of anthracite mining. The Deppen Scholars share how they followed their ancestors' path as they first experienced alienation, then gained the confidence to ultimately graduate with pride from Bucknell University. "This is a fine job. There is nothing quite like this study, which is a contemporary interdisciplinary case study that cuts across history, sociology and education while mixing a bit of the economics of de-industrialization." -Dr. Kenneth Wolensky, Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission "Thoroughly enjoyable. You let the Deppens speak for themselves without trying to over-analyze their underlying motivations. An interesting exploration of the emergence of class consciousness. We didn't feel poor in Mt. Carmel so class consciousness resulted from our interactions at Bucknell and beyond. We appreciate your good, hard work and for having it read more like a novel than a treatise!" -Julie Corrigan, Deppen Scholar, Bucknell , class of 1986 "An engaging exploration of transformations-geological, economic, cultural-presented in the context of a caring professor's quest to understand and connect with the people of a small Pennsylvania anthracite town." -Dennis Baumoll, Professor Emeritus, Department of English, Bucknell University

Download or read book Expanding the Circle written by John C. Hawley and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2015-01-08 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many educational professionals agree that the time has come to expand their circle of inclusion and broaden their definition of diversity by increasing LGBTQ studies, but the question of how to do so is still debated. Although some colleges and universities have been incorporating LGBTQ studies for decades, courses and programs continue to be pockets of innovation rather than models of inclusion for all of higher education. Colleges and universities need to encourage faculty members to teach and research a wide range of LGBTQ topics, as well as support student life professionals in building inclusive campus communities. This book includes testimonies that alert educators to possible pitfalls and successes of their policies through an analysis of changing student attitudes. Based on these case studies, the contributors offer practical suggestions for the classroom and the provost's office, demonstrating not only the gains that have been made by LGBTQ students and the institutions that serve them, but also the tensions that remain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If You Live by the Sword offers an honest portrayal of the human struggles faced by a university president and it explains how these seldom discussed stresses of the position are intensified by the intrusion of politics. Pettit goes behind the scenes and writes openly about intrigue, betrayal, anxiety, and the contention for power that is faced within the university system. In a career that has mixed academia and politics for over forty years, the author was fired more than once for his politics. And when he ran a gubernatorial campaign, he actually had to fire the candidate’s mother. On a more personal level, the author experienced two divorces because of the turbulence of his career, and had to fend off false rumors of sexual impropriety and endure politically inspired audits.
