Oral history interview with Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz
No full textRoxanne Dunbar-Ortiz, an author and a retired professor of Native American history, talks about her youth spent in Oklahoma and her educational path resulting in doctorate degree in history. She shares how she became involved in activism after hearing Malcolm X speak and discusses how her interest in Latin American history and Native American history grew. She also describes some of her activism activities from writing many published memoirs to creating councils for the United Nations to sitting in on court cases as an expert witness.The Spotlighting Oklahoma Oral History Collection is a series of thematic oral history projects as well as individual-specific interviews with the common goal of documenting the cultural and intellectual history of Oklahoma
The canary in the post-racial coal mine: the 21st century mulatto in American fiction
No full textThe American mulatto has been employed by writers over time to provide commentary on American race relations. We can look to antebellum writers like Lydia Marie Child or William Wells Brown as an example of the state of the black-white dynamic prior to or just following the Civil War. Examining Nella Larsen’s Passing can give insight into the status of race relations during the Harlem Renaissance. But as America has evolved into a so-called post-racial society, does the mulatto still serve as a vehicle for commentary on American race relations? Through a brief examination of earlier examples of literature with these biracial characters coupled with an in depth analysis of two contemporary novels, Danzy Senna’s Caucasia and Heidi Durrow’s The Girl Who Fell from the Sky, this paper will show several of the ways in which the mulatto does provide a model in which to gauge American race relations, for better or for worse.M.A.L.S.Includes bibliographical referencesby Roxanne Huerta

Influence du fluor sur la transposition d'alcools allyliques catalysée au rhénium pour accéder à des centres quaternaires énantioenrichis
No full textLe p-menthylaldéhyde, développé par le groupe du Pr Spino, est un auxiliaire chiral permettant un accès efficace à des synthons possédant des carbones tertiaires et quaternaires par le biais d’une panoplie de réactions. Cependant, cet auxiliaire conduit à une formation problématique d’un carbocation allylique lors de la transposition-1,3 d’alcools allyliques tertiaires catalysée au rhénium(VII), détruisant la précieuse information stéréogénique du système. Nous avons émis l’hypothèse qu’un atome de fluor sur l’auxiliaire chiral ou sur le substrat empêcherait la formation du carbocation allylique lors du réarrangement, permettant l’accès aux centres quaternaires énantioenrichis.
Le premier chapitre de ce mémoire rapporte la synthèse du fluoromenthylaldéhyde et les efforts vers la séparation de ses deux diastéréoisomères. Puis, diverses additions de vinylmétaux ont été tentées pour accéder aux précurseurs de centres quaternaires (pcqs), sans succès. Réimaginant notre stratégie avec des nucléophiles moins encombrés stériquement, nous avons accédé rapidement aux précurseurs de centres tertiaires (pcts), mais sans percée vers les pcqs. Nous avons alors décidé de tester notre hypothèse sur un précurseur de centre tertiaire (pct) avant de poursuivre nos efforts de synthèse vers les pcqs. Puis, en confirmant notre hypothèse sur le rôle des atomes de fluor dans la prévention de la perte stéréochimique pour les pcts, nous avons observé l'élimination de l'atome de fluor du système, le rendant trop instable pour toute manipulation. En résumé, l’auxiliaire chiral fluoromenthylaldéhyde mène à des molécules instables et présente d'importantes difficultés pour accéder aux pcqs, ce qui nous a conduits à réorienter nos efforts de synthèse vers la solution des composés trifluorométhylés adduit du p-menthylaldéhyde.
Le deuxième chapitre de ce mémoire rapporte les efforts vers la synthèse d'un pcq trifluorométhylé. Une voie de synthèse passant par un iodure de vinyle suivi de trois tentatives différentes de couplages au palladium n’a pas permis de mettre la main sur le pcq désiré. Réétudiant notre approche, nous avons réussi à livrer les deux diastéréoisomères du pcq trifluorométhylé par une trans-méthylboration suivie d’une protodémétallation. Le deuxième chapitre est clôturé par les premières tentatives du réarrangement au Re(VII) sur les pcqs trifluorométhylés adduit du p-menthylaldéhyde
A seal named Patches
No full textScientists Roxanne Beltran and Patrick Robinson set off on a polar adventure, traveling to Antarctica to study the lives of Weddell seals. By finding Patches, a wily seal they've been tracking since birth, they'll be able to learn a lot about how much the seals get to eat and how many pups they raise. A Seal Named Patches takes young readers to the very bottom of the globe, where they meet the animals that live in cold, icy conditions. Through photos and real-life stories, young readers will learn about how scientists do fieldwork, the challenges of researching animals in harsh climates, what it's like to fly in a helicopter over Antarctica
Children\u27s/Young Adult (YA) Author Event: Tim Green Author Visit
No full textThe Children’s/Young Adult Author Committee at Olivet Nazarene University received a $2500 Community Engagement Grant from the university. Because of this grant, the university hosted Tim Green, a former NFL football player who is now authoring books of primary interest to fourth through eighth graders. The success of this grant is difficult to measure, but in numbers, more than 3200 4th - 8th grade students and their teachers attended his speaking events during his two day visit. Green autographed more than 400 books for the attendees. Regarding reading motivation, area teachers have and still are reporting students, boys in particular, who in the past have never read a whole book, but when the teachers give them one of Tim Green’s books, they return and ask for more of his books to read. The Children’s/Young Adult Author Committee plans to continue bringing authors of quality literature to the community
