    In this new Next Page column, Erin Duran, LGBTQA Advisor and Residential Life Coordinator, shares with us the name of the author he appreciates even more now that he knows said author is from his home state of Texas, which title caught his attention as a sixth grader (and the hit song played on repeat while reading!), and which authors he frequently recommends to students for their challenging (in a good way) discussion of LGBTQA topics

    Erin Gruwell - 10/22/2003 - (Riall Lecture Series)

    No full text
    Begun in 1988, the E. Pauline Riall Lecture Series brings to the University and community outstanding national lecturers in the field of education. The series was established by the late Miss Riall, long-time principal and teacher of the former Salisbury University's Campus School. A generous bequest was provided by Miss Riall's will to fund this special program.

    ERIN: A Portal to Resources for Higher Education in Neuroscience

    No full text
    ERIN, Educational Resources in Neuroscience, is the Society for Neuroscience\u27s web portal to selected, high- quality materials for higher education. A Board of Editors approves resources after describing them and classifying them by topic, subtopic, media type, author, and appropriate educational level. Some resources are also accompanied by reviews and ratings from faculty who have used the resource. These features make a search of ERIN far more useful than a typical Google search. ERIN\u27s development was funded by the National Science Foundation with a three-year grant to SfN. Along the way, various unexpected problems arose and solutions were found, many of which are described in this overview of ERIN\u27s history and the various decisions that were made in its design and development

    Reconceiving the State: morals, markets, and state regulation of assisted reproductive technologies

    No full text
    Assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs), defined as technologies that bring together human gametes for the purposes of reproduction and regenerative research, have enabled new life for those expanding their families, as well as those looking to treat degenerative diseases. As meanings of life have shifted in an era of evolving reproductive technology, the state has new opportunities to intervene, mediate, and prohibit the use of ARTs in the United States. In light of the moral and instrumental ways to understand ARTs and the social implications of ART practices, what is the role of the state in ART oversight? Moreover, how does issue framing of ARTs impact legislative outcomes? Using egg donation as a particular site of morals and markets, I investigate these question through the legislative activity on egg donation at the state level, as well as the public policy making processes about egg donation. Given the empirical and theoretical gaps in ART scholarship about state-level legislation in the US in the contemporary period, this dissertation aims is to answers these research questions through original data on various kinds of ART legislation between 1990 and 2010, at the state level. Employing hazard analysis of egg donation legislation between 1998 and 2008 in 49 states, this project advances the argument that state-level legislative activities on egg donation are vibrant, and increased by scientific stakeholders in ARTs, as well as the presence of women in politics and economic life. Looking closer at cases of egg donation legislation in case studies of California, New York, Arizona, and Louisiana, I find that legislators frame egg donation as moral and instrumental social issues—with varying degrees of legislative success. I argue that state-level oversight has problematic implications for the concept of stratified reproduction and suggest applying the equal liberty principle to ART policymaking. Finally, I argue that the absence of political debate—particularly the absence of feminist voices—warrants new political solutions to increase democratic discourse on ART issues.Ph.

    161 primers for PCR-amplification of Octocorallia mitochondrial genome fragments

    Read me This dataset includes: (1) A Read Me File (20220419_Easton_and_Hicks_OctocoralPrimers_ReadMe.docx). (2) An .xlsx file (2022April_Easton_and Hicks_OctocoralPrimers.xlsx) with three sheets: Primer List, Recommended primer pairs, and References. (3) A Geneious xml file with the 161 primers (OctocoralPrimers_Easton_and_Hicks_2022.geneious). (4) A compressed fasta file of the 161 primers (161OctocoralPrimers_Easton_and_Hicks_2022.fasta.gz). Primers were designed by Erin E. Easton between 2017 and 2019 to improve the success rate of amplification and sequencing of mitochondrial genome fragments for Octocorallia species. Additional primers were designed for Swiftia exserta once it was discovered that its mitochondrial genome sequence substantially differed from other octocorals. A total of 161 primers were designed that permit amplification and sequencing of the complete mitochondrial genomes of numerous octocoral species. Although most were designed without referencing published sequences, some do overlap with existing primers or were modified from existing primers (See Primer list sheet’s Notes and Reference columns in the .xlsx file). Most primers were used only for sequencing; however numerous primers were used for amplification. The primer pairs that consistently worked in the labs of Easton and Hicks are listed in the Recommended primer pairs Sheet in the .xlsx file). Because thermocycler protocols will differ with reagents and thermocyclers used, amplification protocols are not included. You can contact Erin E. Easton at [email protected] for guidance.

    Oregon's African American/black student success plan: final evaluation report

    prepared for Oregon Department of Education, Office of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion ; prepared by RMC Research Corporation ; prepared by Caroline Qureshi, Nicole Cerra, Dr. Emily Saxton, Dr. Karen Drill, Erin E. Stack, Rachel Lahoff.Title from PDF cover (viewed on January 2, 2020)."In 2015 the Oregon Legislature enacted House Bill 2016, which directs the Oregon Department of Education (ODE) to develop and implement a statewide education plan for African American/Black/African students who are in early childhood through postsecondary education programs. ODE awarded funding under House Bill 2016 to four grantees in the Portland metropolitan area from July 2016 through June 2017 (Year 1). These grantees, referred to as Phase 1 grantees, received renewed funding from October 2017 through June 2019 (Years 2-3). An additional five grantees, referred to as Phase 2 grantees, were awarded funding from July 2018 through June 2019"-- Page 1.This archived document is maintained by the State Library of Oregon as part of the Oregon Documents Depository Program.

    Challenging Gender in Single-Sex Spaces: Lessons from a Feminist

    No full text
    Published: Erin E. Buzuvis, Challenging Gender in Single-Sex Spaces: Lessons from a Feminist, 80 L. &amp; CONTEMP. PROBS. 155 (2017). This Article explores transgender inclusion within adult recreational women’s leagues by using the example of the Mary Vazquez Women’s Softball League (MVWSL), in Northampton, Massachusetts. A MVWSL policy addressing transgender inclusion became necessary due to a noticeable increase in gender-identity diversity. The resultant policy respects the league’s core lesbian constituency by providing individuals with the freedom to acknowledge openly a gender identity that has or is evolving from lesbian to something else, and reflects the league’s founding feminist principles by refusing to define for others the suitability of a women’s community. The Author demonstrates the successful creation of a policy based on internal principles and values rather than external ones, and defines inclusion and prohibits discrimination based on gender identity. This application can be applied in other sporting contexts that separate players by sex to determine the values-driven process of defining who is eligible in each category or, when separation is necessary, to promote the objectives of the leagues, particularly when such a policy is absent from public law
