Arthur M. Lotz
No full textArthur M. Lotz was born in Lanark, Illinois, on May 3, 1931. After graduating from Lanark High School (1949), he attended Manchester College (Indiana) for two years before joining the United States Air Force. After ten years as an Air Force pilot, Lotz returned to Manchester and completed his business degree in 1962. He then enrolled at the Indiana University School of Law and received his JD in 1965.
After law school Lotz joined the Indiana University Treasure’s Office, before he began working for the IU Alumni Office in 1969 - first as Alumni Secretary, and then as Executive Director of the Bloomington campus office. In 1978 Lotz joined the law school as the Assistant Dean for Placement and Bar Relations, and in 1980 he assumed the duties as Assistant Dean for Budget Administration, Bar Relations, and Development, the position he held until his retirement in 1996.
Among his many accomplishments at the law school are designing the school’s first development plan, developing the strategy used to build support from the Higher Education Commission and the state legislature for the law building addition and renovation, and serving as a tireless ambassador for the law school. He expanded alumni events, created and broadened Alumni Weekend, fostered the development of several regional alumni clubs, and initiated the Academy of Law Alumni Fellows.
In 2005, Lotz\u27s classmates, colleagues, and fellow alumni created the Arthur M. Lotz Endowment for Alumni & Development, which funds alumni outreach efforts. The School\u27s Office of Alumni and Development is named in his honor. Lotz was inducted into the Indiana University Academy of Law Alumni Fellows in 2009 and was awarded the IU Foundation’s President’s Medallion in 2012.https://www.repository.law.indiana.edu/notablealumni/1169/thumbnail.jp

Oral history interview with Reinhard M. Lotz, 2015
No full textTranscript of an oral history interview with Reinhard M. Lotz, conducted by Sarah Yahm at Norwich University in Northfield, Vermont, on 10 April 2015, as part of the Norwich Voices oral history project of the Sullivan Museum and History Center. Reinhard Lotz graduated from Norwich University in 1960; the bulk of the interview focuses on his subsequent military career in the U.S. Army
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
