Foster Cass
No full textPhotograph of Foster Cass taken in 2015. Foster Cass (Class of 1941) was born on February 6, 1919. He graduated from Upper Iowa University (UIU) in 1941 with a degree in math and business administration and a minor in history. Foster's family lived across the street from UIU where he and his brothers and sister attended college. During college, Foster joined the Pi Rho Zeta, national honorary fraternity, sang in the choir, wrote poetry, played football under Doc Dorman, and worked on campus to pay for books and tuition. He met his wife, Maxine Marion Duff, another UIU student, in the library.
World War II began in Europe while Foster was attending UIU. He knew he wanted to earn his degree before the Army drafted him. Foster was one of ten students to graduate from the pilot's training course at UIU in June 1941. As soon as he received his degree, Foster enlisted in the Navy where he became a commissioned officer, primarily serving as watch officer and communications officer on ships, including his time as a “plank owner,” a member of the first crew of the USS Fayette. Foster also had the honor to receive the telegram and announce the end of the war to his shipmates on the Ormsby. During his time on ships at sea, he traveled about 80,000 nautical miles. Foster has continued to support Upper Iowa University. Notably, he has sponsored the Foster Cass Archives Walk which highlights the history of the campus. In addition, he established the Foster Cass Foundation Student Scholarship in honor of his parents, Rev. Frank W. Cass and Carrie Jackley Cass, and family members who are UIU alumni: Edward J. Cass '38, Marjorie Swales Cass '39 and Betty Cass Hersey '43. The Cass family was the University's neighbor for many years, and there is a plaque commemorating the location on Union Street.[Title], Upper Iowa University Digital Archives, [Reference URL].

Ecological energetics of Eudyptes penguins at Marion Island
No full textIncludes bibliographies.Macaroni Penguins (Eudyptes chrysolophus) and Rockhopper Penguins (E. chrysocome) breed sympatrically at Marion Island in the sub-Antarctic, where they account for a substantial proportion of the avian biomass breeding at the island. This thesis documents the energy requirements of the two species during their respective breeding and moulting cycles at the island. Resting metabolic rates, calculated from lowest, stable rates of oxygen consumption over 24 h, averaged 25 % greater than basal metabolic rates predicted from allometric equations. Body temperatures of the penguins and the relationships between metabolic rates and temperature were investigated over a range of -10°C to 25°C. Lower critical temperature of Rockhopper Penguins was between 0°C and 5°C, but that of Macaroni Penguins could not be clearly ascertained. Measured metabolic rates of other species of penguins are reviewed and intra- and inter-specific differences in metabolic rates are discussed. In contrast to most penguins measured, individuals maintained in zoos or held in captivity for long periods had metabolic rates lower than predicted basal levels

Listening to the trauma of unprotected migrant adolescents : a study of the psychological processes of volunteer foster parents in Marseille
No full textContexte : Depuis les années 1990, la migration internationale des adolescent.es non accompagné.es a introduit de nombreux questionnements qui concernent les politiques publiques de la protection de l’enfance comme celles inhérentes au contrôle de l'immigration. Leur nombre a augmenté ces dernières années et, en 2022, la Mission mineurs non accompagnés en dénombrait 14782 sur le territoire français. Ces personnes devraient être mises à l’abri dans l'attente d'une évaluation de leur situation. Pourtant, à Marseille, comme dans d’autres villes, beaucoup ne bénéficient pas de cette protection immédiate et vivent dans la rue. Face à ce phénomène, des personnes font la démarche de les accueillir au sein de leur foyer, tentant de palier par hospitalité éthique les carences de l’accueil institutionnel, et renouvelant ainsi l’organisation traditionnelle de l’accueil de l’enfance en danger. Objectifs : Cette thèse explore les processus psychiques à l'œuvre pour ces accueillant.es bénévoles, notamment face aux récits des traumas que les adolescents hébergés racontent. Approfondir ces éléments devraient permettre d’émettre des préconisations concernant leur accompagnement et, ainsi, d’améliorer l’accueil proposé à ces jeunes personnes. Méthodologie : Nous avons mené une recherche qualitative et inductive, basée sur la Grounded Theory (Glaser & Strauss, 1967), sur l’analyse des réactions des accueillant.es lors de leur écoute des récits traumatiques relatés par les adolescents de façon informelle, ainsi que sur l’analyse des mouvements transféro-contre-transférentiels, lors des deux entretiens de recherche, que nous avons menés auprès de douze accueillant.es bénévoles vivant à Marseille. Les adolescents hébergés, tous des garçons, avaient 16 ans ½ en moyenne au moment de l’accueil et venaient d’Afrique du Nord ou de l’Ouest. Résultats : L’analyse du matériel met en exergue l’existence de processus de transmission des traumas des adolescents dans ces relations d’hospitalité. Néanmoins, lorsqu’est possible pour les accueillant.es une mise en figuration des expériences traumatiques racontées, sous la forme de scénarisations mentales, une amorce de processus de symbolisation peut s’opérer. Discussion : Cette hospitalité apporte aux adolescents une sécurité matérielle et affective. En étant en-dehors de la logique du soupçon dont les institutions des pays hôtes sont porteuses, ces accueillant.es permettent aux adolescents de se raconter à leur rythme et d’exprimer des vécus qui, parfois, ont trait à des violences socio-politiques extrêmes. Ces traumas peuvent s’exprimer au travers de symptômes ou être mis en mots. En recueillant cette parole et en tentant de la figurer au travers d’une scénarisation mentale, les accueillant.es ouvrent la voie à une possible symbolisation. Néanmoins, des impensés issus de l’histoire personnelle et/ou transgénérationnelle de chacun.e, comme de l’histoire collective, colorent ces rencontres interculturelles. De plus, ces accueillant.es sont soumis.es à des injonctions paradoxales de la part des institutions, à un manque de reconnaissance officielle et à une menace de rupture brutale du lien. Sans formation ni accompagnement systématique, il leur est difficile de penser ces éléments et de se positionner dans la relation. Conclusion : La mise en figuration permet aux accueillant.es de participer à l'élaboration du récit de l’adolescent, dans une co-construction, qui requalifie l’expérience traumatique. Ce processus dépend du cadre social et culturel où il prend forme, qui influencera tant la relation qui se tisse entre les hôtes, que les processus d’élaboration des éléments traumatiques.Context : Since the 1990s, the international migration of unaccompanied minors hasintroduced many questions regarding public policies on child protection and migration control. Their number has increased in recent years and, in 2022, the Unaccompanied Minors Mission counted 14782 of them on the French territory. They should be protected immediately. However, in Marseille, as in other cities, many of them live in the streets. Because of this situation, some people welcome them into their homes, trying to compensate for the institutions’ lack of protection. Thus, they change the usual organization of child protection.Aim : This thesis aims at exploring the psychological processes at work in volunteer fosterparents who welcome unprotected migrant adolescents in Marseille, especially when they listen to the story of their traumatic experiences. Our goal is to make recommendations regarding the support that they need in order to improve the welcoming of unaccompanied minors.Method : We carried out a qualitative and inductive research, based on the Grounded Theory (Glaser & Strauss, 1967), but also on the analysis of volunteer foster parents reactions when they are listening to traumatic stories. We also studied the transference and counter-transference mechanisms during these interviews. We met twice twelve volunteer foster parents living in Marseille.Results : The results show mechanisms of psychic trauma transmission in these hospitalityrelationships. Nevertheless, by creating mental pictures and mental scripts of the traumatic experience, foster parents could initiate a symbolization process.Discussion : These relationships provide physical and emotional security to these traumatized adolescents. Out of any logic of suspicion, the volunteer foster parents allow adolescents to share their traumatic experiences. Nevertheless, their personal and transgenerational history, as well as the collective history, impact theses intercultural relationships. Moreover, we found out that these volunteer foster parents could be confronted with paradoxical injunctions from the institutions, but also with a lack of official recognition and with the threat of a sudden end of the relationship. These elements then hinder both the relationship and the process of elaboration of the traumatic experience. Without training and systematic support, it is difficult for them to position themselves in the relationship.Conclusion : These volunteer foster parents participate in the development of the adolescent's story, promoting the inscription of the traumatic experience in a relationship. However, this complex process depends on the social and cultural framework where it takes place, which will influence both the relationship between the hosts and the trauma’s impact
