    Albion Fox Ballenger (left) was an early Seventh-day Adventist minister and author. In 1890, Albion was elected as secretary of the National Religious Liberty Association and by 1893 served as assistant editor of the American Sentinel magazine. Edward Stroud Ballenger (right) was also a minister, critic of Adventism, and editor of "The Gathering Call." Between 1905 and 1909 Edward served on the educational committee of the conference, usually identified as the secretary. After his brother Albion moved to southern California, probably in 1908, Edward seems to have become critical of the church

    Exploring the Effect of CTE Coursework and Work Experience on Adolescent Career Readiness

    No full text
    Career readiness is an area of youth development that is often overlooked in secondary education. Preparing students for the professional world is especially important for high school students, who upon graduation, will have to decide to pursue postsecondary education or a career. Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs, which involve teaching youth employable knowledge and skills, have been shown to assist students in transitioning more seamlessly from high school to college and careers. Work experiences, such as jobs and internships, have also been found to support adolescent career readiness. Currently, there is not a widely used quantitative measure for assessing career readiness. Through a quasi-experimental design, this study will utilize the Career Maturity Inventory Form C (CMI-C) to examine the influence of CTE programming, work experience, and the interaction of these interventions on the career readiness of high school seniors

    Thesis: S.M., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Urban Studies and Planning, 2017.This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.Cataloged from student-submitted PDF version of thesis.Includes bibliographical references (pages 124-133).This thesis examines the efforts of Albion College, a small liberal arts college, to revitalize Albion, MI, a small, post-industrial city. It evaluates the nature of the college's involvement in light of a taxonomy developed by Rita Axelroth Hodges and Steve Dubb in their book, The Road Half Traveled: University Engagement at a Crosswords. Using this taxonomy, the thesis evaluates seven key issues and determines that Albion College is primarily acting as a leader on its community engagement efforts. However, on some key issues, the College is acting as a convener, seeking to find and build the capacity of the City and other organizations within the community. Durable anchor institution engagement requires leadership support, involvement of faculty, staff and students, and commitment of alumni. There are signs that Albion College's community engagement is beginning to help revitalize Albion, MI, but additional time is required to determine the impacts and durability of the efforts.by David Talmage Musselman.S.M

    Circles Never Stop Themselves: a study of classical reception in 'The Dolls of New Albion'.

    No full text
    A study of classical reception, focussing primarily on the reception of ancient Greek tragedy, in the 2012 steampunk opera 'The Dolls of New Albion', written by Paul Shapera. This thesis employs the theory of Masked Reception explored by Apostol & Bakogianni. Basing its claims on a direct interview with Shapera, this thesis shows that The Dolls of New Albion can be interpreted as classical reception without the author intentionally or knowingly adapting classical literature into his work, thus paving the way for future research into classical reception in the absence of authorial intent
