(Requires Adobe Acrobat) Electron Band Structure In Germanium, My Ass An incredibly amusing undergraduate physics lab report. A Victory for the Student Researcher: Chou v. University of Chicago Duke Law and Technology Review . "For years, graduate and other student researchers at universities have alleged that the hierarchical system in academic research allows supervising PhDs to steal and patent inventions that were rightfully discovered by students. In July 2001, the Federal Circuit finally addressed these concerns by interpreting the law in a way that strictly protects the rights of student researchers. This article examines this long-overdue change in the law and discusses its potential implications." Professor of Desperation "Bad pay, zero job security, no benefits, endless commutes.

AMAZING EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES FOR STUDENTS OF ALL AGES Rep. Chaka Fattah (D-PA) recently unveiled his "Education Resource Center" ( http://www.house.gov/fattah/education/ed.htm ), which provides a wealth of information for students, families, and teachers. The numerous resources are conveniently organized by audience, making it easy to find information targeted to your needs whether you're looking for college loans or the best schools in Philadelphia.

Affirmative Action? A Few Good Men Web Resources Read comments Back to "Weigh In" Affirmative Action for White Guys? It's the Department of Redundancy Department By Robert Winston Professor of English, Dickinson College Over the past two or three years, admissions officers and senior administrators at colleges and universities across the United States have become increasingly concerned about a disparity in numbers of enrolled male and female students. Administrators at small liberal arts colleges like Dickinson have been especially worried about this apparent imbalance, arguing that such schools can flourish only if there is a "reasonable" or "realistic" gender balance on the campus. Why the concern? Why now? Last November, The Chronicle of Higher Education sponsored a live, online discussion of this issue, entitled "Is There a Crisis in Declining Male Enrollments?" In the course of the discussion, Thomas G. Mortensen of the Center for the Study of Opportunity in Higher Education argued that the decline in the number of males receiving bachelor's degrees over the past quarter century crosses boundaries of all sorts: racial, economic, and institutional. For Mortensen, this "problem" stems from a far larger crisis for young males, rooted in rises in the numbers of broken families and single mothers and declines in positive, male role models. Because "adult males have been disengaging from traditional labor market, family, and civic roles for decades," says Mortensen, young males allegedly lack exemplars who would lead them to higher education and thus, presumably, commitment to values he endorses. Indeed, the entire education system from K-12 has "failed" males, by marginalizing them, by marking them out disproportionately as learning disabled or disruptive. Implicit in Mortensen's view is the presumption that the education system is, somehow, essentially, "feminine" since there are so many women teaching K-12 (the professoriate, by contrast, remains strikingly male). To redress this discrimination against young men, so the argument goes, colleges and universities need to recruit young males assiduously and provide them with the mentoring and models they need.

Economic transactions increasingly take place via digital networks, and a critical part of this interconnectivity is the way organizations have integrated accounting and financial management systems with Internet-based applications. In order to help form the debate concerning the relations among financial systems, cyber security, and public policy, the Journal of Accounting and Public Policy initiated the first forum on the topic, "Financial Systems and Cyber Security: A Public Policy Perspective." The forum was hosted by the University of Maryland's Robert H. Smith School of Business, in cooperation with the Center for Public Policy and Private Enterprise (from the University of Maryland's School of Public Affairs), on May 28, 2004 and drew over 30 academicians and subject matter experts from universities across the globe.

Students Head Back to School Creativity That Forms Policy PSAs for the Classroom Reaching the Ocean's Limits ... Vol. 2, Issue 1 All of us will never forget the tragedies of September 11. They will be a part of us forever as will the stories of heroism and courage that came from that eventful day. At Widmeyer Communications, our deepest sorrow goes out to our friends at National Geographic, Pace University and all others who lost loved ones in Washington, New York and Pennsylvania. Since the events of 9/11/01, the Widmeyer team has pitched in to support the Twin Towers Orphan Fund and we provided a helping hand to local school children in expressing their thoughts through art and writing. We reached out to our clients at McGraw Hill, Annenberg/CPB, Ford Motor Company, the United Auto Workers and Coca-Cola to enlist their support for schools and students affected by the terrorist acts. And, for a two-week period, Widmeyer Communications devoted sponsorship time on NPR to alert families to appropriate counseling resources. While our efforts pale in comparison to the heroic acts of the police, fire and rescue teams, we are proud to have played a small role in helping those we care so much about. A short note from the United Federation of Teachers summed it up, "There really are no appropriate words to thank you and your colleagues for getting out there and notifying your clients and others about the needs of the relocated schools from ground zero. The response has been dazzling. You’ve made lots of kids and teachers feel better, especially after what they’ve been through."

Testing Students with Disabilities Back to Spotlight Issues Back to CTEST Home Introduction to the issue Official Documents regarding special needs students Special needs testing in the News Weblinks for further information Introduction to the Issues As increasing numbers of students with disabilities apply for admission to institutions of higher education, many are seeking modifications during admissions testing to accommodate for their disabilities. Many of these accommodations are granted. The most common modification is extended time for test administration, although large print versions of tests, readers for tests, and other types of accommodations are also provided. When these accommodations are granted, many of those taking the tests with modifications are unaware that the score reports for such testing usually are sent to colleges or universities with a "flag" or other designation indicating that the test was given under nonstandard conditions. This nation currently embraces important social policy goals of allowing persons with disabilities to participate as fully as possible in society without having to face negative bias or stereotypes. For too long, many individuals with disabilities have had to confront unfair presumptions about their abilities to succeed in education and employment. There are now laws in many states and two federal laws designed to prohibit discrimination against individuals with disabilities.

Beowulf E xtras Extra Information Back To School T he Maine Humanities Council's programs for teachers are based on an unconventional premise: teachers are intellectuals. They are people who read deeply, who enjoy talking about what they have read, who take ideas seriously, who question what they are told. This is a radically different model from what prevails in many American schools. Teachers as test coaches, teachers as babysitters, teachers as therapists - these are typical expectations of educators' roles. If there is time left in the frenetic school day for creative and intellectually exciting teaching, fine, but it's not what schools are really expected to do. An industrial model of schooling - uniform practices, rigid hierarchies, precisely measurable learning outcomes - still prevails throughout much of the country. Happily for Maine, many of its school districts have escaped this strait jacket. Innovative curricula, stimulating teachers, new technology initiatives abound. Yet, given the lack of funding within the system for sustained, high-quality professional development opportunities, many teachers in Maine find they are so overwhelmed by day-to-day tasks, they risk losing their own sense of intellectual excitement. Some leave the profession as a result.
