Practical Equality: Discussion with Author Robert L. Tsai
Professor Timothy Zick discusses a new book titled Practical Equality: Forging Justice in a Divided Nation, with its author, Professor Robert L. Tsai of American University Washington College of Law. Timothy Zick is the John Marshall Professor of Government and Citizenship at William & Mary Law School. His scholarship has explored a wide variety of constitutional issues, with a special focus on the First Amendment. Robert L. Tsai is Professor of Law at American University and a prize-winning essayist in constitutional law and history. Recorded before a live audience at William & Mary Law School on March 14, 2019. The event was sponsored by the American Constitution Society. Professor Tsai was also a panelist during the annual Bill of Rights Journal Symposium on March 15 & 16, 2019
Jacob Viner’s Reminiscences from the New Deal (February 11, 1953)
This paper presents and reproduces an unpublished oral history interview given by Jacob Viner in 1953. The interview released by Viner for the Columbia Oral History Project gives us a valuable opportunity to throw light on his advisory activity during the New Deal Era. In our introduction we attempt to make a critical appraisal of Viner's reminiscences and to state the contribution they can provide to our general knowledge of the period. In addition, we also attempt to find out some biographical and interpretative elements useful to understand Viner’s own vision and his contribution to important economic policy processes during the New Deal.
Emerging Trends and Technologies in the Information Ecosystem, December 10, 2021
Presentation: "Trends in Collections and Analytics"and "Post-COVID Academic Library Trend-forecasting with a Focus on HBCUs"December’s Emerging Trends presentations provided tips on using technology for the creation and delivery of information. Madhu Kadiyala, Robert L. Fallen, Stephanie Bernard, and Suteera Apichatabutra share their knowledge from the Collections and Content Management Department, “Trends in Collections and Analytics.” There are many trends in the field of collections in the last few years. The whole serials market has been shaken up by mass cancellations, price changes, more document delivery choices, and changes in the way serials are used. Database products are transforming from collections of articles to “one stop shops” containing e-books, conference papers, videos, and many other publication formats. New analytics tools allow us to have detailed views of usage and complex views of collections. Open access materials are becoming better and more plentiful. The market is full of mergers and company acquisitions. “Collections as a service” is a fairly new buzz word, and there are recent cooperative collection projects that aim to preserve predictable numbers of copies of printed text as libraries move to more electronic delivery. In Jessica Epstein's presentation, "Post-COVID Academic Library Trend-Forecasting with a Focus on HBCUs," she covered topics ranging from the impact of access to a physical library space, issues of digital divide, device preferences during pandemic online learning and trend forecasting for Atlanta University Center Robert W.

Tailoring the refractive index of films during pulsed laser deposition growth
Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) enables the epitaxial growth of crystalline films using material transfer, from a target to a substrate, via a plasma-plume created during laser ablation. Owing to the several experimental controls available in PLD, which can be adjusted during deposition, this is an excellent tool for growing designer films through altering film parameters such as stoichiometry, crystallinity and thickness [1, 2]. We will present the effects on the refractive index of thin garnet films grown via PLD when varying the temperature of the substrate, onto which the films are grown. Our results show that monotonic control of the YGG refractive index with substrate temperature is possible whilst maintaining good crystal properties. It was observed that at higher substrate temperatures, the gallium content in the crystal is reducing, supported by EDX and XRD measurements, which leads to a decrease in the refractive index of the film. This technique can therefore be used for the fabrication of advanced devices with bespoke refractive index profiles and engineered dielectric properties of composite materials.1. J. A.

Cleveland L. Dennard Records
Dr. Cleveland L. Dennard was educated at Florida A & M University, the University of Colorado, and the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, where he earned an Ed.D. From 1960 to 1965 he was Principal of the Carver Vocational and Adult schools of the Atlanta Public School System. In 1965, Mayor John B. Lindsay appointed Dr. Dennard as Deputy Commissioner for Manpower and Program Management in the New York City Human Resources Administration. During this time Dennard also served on a task force on governmental reorganization. Dr. Dennard left New York to accept an appointment from Lyndon B. Johnson to serve as President of the Washington Technical Institute, in Washington, D.C. In 1977 Dr. Dennard was elected the 8th President of Atlanta University, a position he held until 1984.
