Pandora's Signal Boxes
Included here, dear reader, is a discussion that took place between media and design author and scholar Shannon Mattern and perennial continent. probationer Jamie Allen. The conversation occurred on a rather rainy and cold day, on a walk that Shannon and Jamie took through Basel, Switzerland, toward the Central Signal Box building. Shannon Mattern had come to Switzerland at Jamie’s invitation, as part of a lecture series called “Medialogue”, held jointly by the Critical Media Lab Basel and the Medienwissenschaft group at Universität Basel. The Signal Box is an infrastructural landmark that delimits a transition between residential and (formerly) industrial zones in Kanton Basel-Stadt. The building was designed by locals, stalwart innovators and ‘starchitects’ Herzog and Herzog & de Meuron, whose numerous offices and archives in Basel are all but a few minutes’ tram-ride away.https://continentcontinent.cc/archives/issues/issue-5-3-2016/pandora-s-signal-boxe

The Pennsylvania historical and museum commission and the papers of the harmony society: An acquisition, a five-decade loan, and recovery
Among archivists and manuscript collectors, the term "replevin" commonly describes efforts by government archives to recover public records that are in private hands. At times, such efforts can provoke friction, raising questions about the line between public and private property rights. This article chronicles an atypical replevin case in Pennsylvania, one that focuses on the struggles over the ownership of papers of a private origin, but which became government property with their transfer to the Commonwealth in 1937. This is a custodial history of a collection of papers documenting the Harmony Society, a religious separatist society once located in western Pennsylvania and in southwest Indiana. It is a story that involves a former Harmonist, a scholar, misplaced trust, and recovery that highlights the complex psychology of ownership
1 The Relationship between SAT Scores and Retention to the Second Year: Replication with 2009 SAT Validity
The College Board formed a research consortium with four-year colleges and universities to build a national higher education database with the primary goal of validating the revised SAT) for use in college admission. A study by Mattern and Patterson (2009) examined the relationship between SAT scores and retention to the second year. The sample included first-time, first-year students entering college in fall 2006, with 106 of the original 110 participating institutions providing data on retention to the second-year. Results showed that SAT performance was related to retention, even after controlling for relevant student and institutional characteristics. Replication studies have been conducted for subsequent entering cohorts of students and similar results were found (Mattern & Patterson, 2011a, 2011b). Replicating the analyses of the previous three reports (Mattern & Patterson, 2009; 2011a, 2011b), the current study examined the relationship between SAT performance and retention to the second year for first-time, first-year students that began in the fall of 2009. A total of 131 institutions provided data which translated to 262,949 students. Students without SAT scores, self-reported high school grade point average (HSGPA), or retention data were removed from analyses, resulting in a final sample size of 199,366 students. The results from the current study based on the 2009 sample show the same pattern of results as the previous reports. Namely, higher SAT scores are associated with higher retention rates. This was true, even after controlling for student characteristics (gender, race/ethnicity, household income, parental education, and HSGPA) and institutional characteristics (control, size, and selectivity)
