16. Student Perceptions of Disabilities Services in Postsecondary Small Private Liberal Arts Institutions

Author

French, Elizabeth M.

Abstract

Students entering postsecondary institutions bring to the college campus a complex and diverse background of experiences and needs. This is especially relevant to those individuals with disabilities. For these students, the long journey for commensurate and appropriate access to the collegiate educational environment can be arduous. From education to advocacy to Civil Rights, the privilege and opportunity for higher education for all has made its way to the campuses of small, private liberal arts postsecondary institutions. Individuals with disabilities come from a support system, Individual Education Program (IEP), in elementary and secondary education that guided their educational steps into the collegiate world. In postsecondary education, the Office of Disabilities Services is the conduit to deliver and provide similar assistance. Offices of Disabilities Services, established in the 1970s, act as an academic support system for individuals with disabilities, while protecting them from discrimination. The purpose of this quantitative study is to examine individuals with documented disabilities perceptions of the support they receive from their respective colleges Office of Disability Services. The utilization of a survey facilitated data gathering. Four small private liberal arts colleges in a Middle Atlantic state participated in the survey. Three hundred and eighty-five participants with documented disabilities received the survey. One hundred and eighty-three participants started the survey with one hundred and sixty-nine survey completions. The resulting data strongly indicates that individuals with disabilities perceived the support and guidance they receive as they progress toward degree completion was agreeable. There were three areas, gender, category of disability, and GPA, that showed a significant difference between hypothesized results and actual results in relation to each of one of the statements on the survey.

23. Who Guards the Guardians? The Evaluation of Statewide Boards of Higher Education. Occasional Paper Series, Number 7.

Author

State Univ. of New York, Buffalo. Dept. of Higher Education., French, Elizabeth, and Berdahl, Robert

Abstract

Issues pertinent to evaluation of statewide boards of higher education are considered, and the cases of South Carolina and several other states are covered. Evaluation is seen as a form of accountability. Reasons why better, more formal evaluation of statewide boards will be important to a wide range of constituencies--such as trends toward performance budgeting--are examined, and various complexities of the evaluation process are addressed. The major relevant evaluation efforts undertaken recently are summarized, including the University of Missouri Task Force on State Level Coordination and Governance in Higher Education, two Alabama evaluations, evaluations by the Academy for Educational Development of consolidated governing boards of Mississippi, West Virginia, and Florida; and legislative performance evaluations in Connecticut and South Carolina. Evaluation criteria used by South Carolina's Legislative Audit Council to evaluate the Commission on Higher Education, critical reactions to the criteria from selected respondents around the country, and modifications based on the reactions are examined. The question of who should evaluate issues pertaining to higher education is addressed. Various supplementary materials pertaining to state evaluation efforts are appended. (SW)

Abstract

Objectives. We described the process of engaging key stakeholders in a systematic review of requirements for a master of public health (MPH) degree within the Department of Health Behavior and Health Education, University of North Carolina Gillings School of Global Public Health, and summarized resulting changes. Methods. A benchmarking study of 11 peer institutions was completed. Key stakeholders (i.e., current students, alumni, faculty, staff, employers, and practicum preceptors) received online or print surveys. A faculty retreat was convened to process results and reach consensus on program revisions. Results. MPH program changes included (1) improved advising and mentoring program, (2) elimination of research and practice track options, (3) increased elective and decreased required credit hours, (4) replacement of master's paper requirement with 'deliverables' (written products such as reports, documents, and forms) produced as part of the required 'Capstone' course, (5) extended community field experience to 2 semesters and moved it to year 2 of the program, and (6) allowed practica of either 200, 300, or 400 hours. Conclusions. Engaging key stakeholders in the program review process yielded important changes to the MPH degree program requirements. Others may consider this approach when undertaking curriculum reviews. (Am J Public Health. 2010;100:1993-1999. doi: 10.2105/AJPH.2009.177709)

Abstract

Eighty-one percent of the Presidents from the 59 campus North Carolina Community College System completed a brief survey to assess interest and current status of worksite health promotion programs. Campus tours were conducted at a convenience sample of six campuses using interviews, checklists, and environmental scans. Data were summarized using descriptive statistics. Only 27% of campuses had a wellness program in place. Campus Presidents affirmed high interest and a good fit between wellness programs and college mission. Possible barriers included limited access to healthy foods; variable access to fitness facilities; and, the challenge of accommodating part-time employees employed at geographically dispersed locations., INTRODUCTION Approximately 68% of U.S. adults over age 15 are employed, with full-time employees spending an average 40% of waking hours in work-related endeavors (U.S. Department of Labor, 2007).

45. PLANT HORMONE PATHWAYS PLAY A CRUCIAL ROLE IN SOLANUM SPP. INTERACTIONS WITH THE SOIL ENVIRONMENT

Abstract

Plants regulate responses to their environment through complex hormone signaling; these hormones can be categorized broadly into two categories: growth and defense, though many have roles in both. Much remains to be understood about the complexity of hormone signaling in relation to environmental responses, especially species- and genotype-specific differences. Unraveling this complexity of hormone signaling will lead to the development of resilient crops that are able to respond appropriately to their environment. In this dissertation, I hypothesize novel roles for growth and defense hormones in Solanum spp. responses to 1) biochar, a black carbon soil amendment (Chapter 2), 2) infection with Ralstonia solanacearum, an economically important soilborne pathogen causing bacterial wilt (Chapter 3), and 3) endophytic colonization by the soil bacterial community (Chapter 4). In Chapter 2, I showed that biochar upregulates GA signaling and affects GA-related traits in a species- and cultivar-specific manner. Biochar amendment also downregulates defense signaling. In Chapter 3, I demonstrated a novel role for auxin in resistance against R. solanacearum, including differential expression of auxin signaling genes in resistant genotype H7996 compared to susceptible WV in response to R. solanacearum infection. In addition, I observed stronger and faster upregulation of defense hormone marker genes for SA and ET in H7996 compared to WV. In Chapter 4, I showed that SA and ET are required for normal tomato root microbial community assembly, affecting the colonization of a few key taxa in order to promote alpha diversity. H7996 and WV root communities differ in alpha diversity, and a panel of H7996 x WV RILs showed quantitative variation in alpha diversity that correlated negatively with the abundance of these key taxa. In conclusion, I elucidated novel roles for hormones in responses to the soil environment, pathogen infection, and root community colonization. These findings are important for developing resilient, sustainable crops.
