Egiturazko kasuaren erkaketa euskaraz. (Structural Case Checking in Basque)
No full textThe topic of this dissertation is the Ergativity in Basque. The author adopts the Chomsky" Minimalist Program framework (1993), and it exhibits three related empirical domains: the nature of subjects, the dative case and the Split Ergativity. @@ The ergative case system is different form the more familiar nominative/accusative system in that it exhibits different markings of transitive and intransitive subjects: transitive subjects are marked for the Ergative case and intransitive subjects for the Absolutive case, like transitive objects. Following Bobaljik (1993) and Laka (1993) (but see Murasugi (1992) for a different proposal). The author propose the theory that the Ergative is indeed the case of subjects in Basque, in contrast to the nominative/accusative subject which bears the Absolutive case. @@ The author differs from Bobaljik"s proposal concerning non-finite sentences. In control-type nonfinite sentences (Ortiz de Urbina, 1986), the intransitive subject has to be null, just the same as the transitive one. To account for this phenomenon, the author proposes that non-finite Tense checks an obligatorily activated null case. Therefore, both transitive and intransitive subjects are realized as PRO. @@ In the framework assumed, structural cases are checked in the Specifier of Agreement heads. This structural requirement is visible in Basque as an overt agreement for Ergative and Absolutive. Since the Inflection also grees with Datives, Basque Dative is analyzed as a structural case (cf. Cheng & Demirdache, 1993; López & Austin, 1995). This increases Chomsky"s (1993) crossing paths problem by adding a third A-movement path. @@ In the proposal defended by the author, this problem does not arise. The author proposes that the functional head licensing Absolutive is situated lower down in the structure than the position where the subject is base-generated; i.e., the Absolutive is checked in a functional Spec between VP-shells. This proposal has also been independently formulated by Collins & Thrainsson (1993). @@ Apart from the general pattern sketched above, Basque shows a phenomenon known as the Split Ergativity. Typologists (Dixon, 1994), which proposes the concept of a Split Ergativity if a language combines properties of ergative and nominative/accusative systems. Basque has two kinds of Split Ergativity. One is based on the semantic nature of the predicate, the other one on the semantic nature of the NP arguments. @@ The split based on predicate types is analyzed as ephiphenomenal: the apparently exceptional behavior of unergative predicates is believed to proceed from an underlyingly transitive representation in Lexical Relational Structure (Hale & Keyser, 1993). If the object is incorporated in the lexicon, the predicate behaves as an intransitive in syntax and its only syntactic argument is assigned Absolutive case. If the object does not incorporate in the lexicon, it is visible in syntax (incorporating at Logical Form), and the predicate behaves as a transitive licensing Ergative case. @@ Bound vs. free split (Dixon, 1994) concerns the semantic nature of NP arguments. In the past tense, first and second person subjects carrying Ergative agree with an Absolutive prefix in the auxiliary, if the object is a third person. Concerning these configurations, I propose that the Ergative argument does not check its features in the canonical way. Instead, it moves towards an Absolutive agreement and to an Ergative case position. The Absolutive argument only checks its case, but no agreement. I call this mechanism Split checking of nominal-feature

shelves. As a smooth-reading account of the final days
of World War II (I wished all history were written
as dramatically and pleasurably), Craig has managed
to reveal the activities of two Nisei MIS personnel
- Lt. Ralph Yempuku and Sgt. Fumio Kida,
both of Hawaii, who participated in the Hainan and
Bukden Jumps, respectively, with OSS men to liberate
Allied prisoners of war from guards who had no idea
the war was over.
We say "managed" because many stories of the
OSS (Office of Strategic Services) are still classified
and through Craig's diligent research in the military
archives and his personal interviews with many of
the principals mentioned in his first published work
that the daring of these two Nisei has come to public
light.
*
Sgt. Kido was among six OSS men who flew over
Manchuria on Aug. 16 (day after hostilities in the
Pacific theater were terminated - VJ Day was still
two weeks away) in a B-24 bomber. Mission was
named Operation Cardinal to rescue American PWs
at the Roten Camp in Mukden. The guards and prisoners
had no idea the war was over. So, as Craig tells
it, the Roten Camp yard came alive when someone
seeing the parachutists spilling into· the sky hollered,
"Say, I remember back at Ft. Benning they used to
use colored chutes." For Sgt. Kida,. it was his first
jump out of a B-24.
The danger that Nisei G-2 men faced in the Pacific
theater if captured by the enemy truly agitated Sgt.
Kida when a company of Japanese soldiers appeared
and ordered them to halt. Moving in with bayoneted
rifles, they were particularly interested in the Japanese
American Kida . . . How this mission was successfully
accomplished shall be left to readers of
Craig's book. Check the 16th chapter, "Delayed Reactions,"

Emperor Hirohito addressed his nation (noon, Aug.
15) and sid the war was over.
A history buff Cr a ig (who graduated with a B.A.
and M.A. in hist ory from Columbia) weaves the text
of Hirohito's broadcast in a most select manner. The
shocking disbelief of a battered nation is conveyed
without provocation or vengeance. Craig spent some
three months in Japan interviewing hundreds of
people, going over diaries and records in a sensitive
attempt to show the human side of the war. He wa-s
particularly concerned with the effects of the atom
bomb on Japan - especially· the one dropped on
Nagasaki, since much had been published on Hiro-shima.
A tall gentleman who once tried out as a pitcher
for the Boston Red Sox, Craig also spoke with hundreds
of Yankees who were involved in the air and
ground operations the eight months before VJ Day.
At a press conference last week at the Kawafuku,
Craig told Li'l Tokio editors he was finally welcomed
in the Red Sox bullpen earlier this year when interviewing
Jim Lonberg for a Saturday Evening Post
feature.

"The Fall of Japan" has received a volley of exceptional
reviews from critics, including Capt. Allan
Bosworth (of "America's Concentration Camps"
fame) and Brig. Gen. S. L. A. Marshall (ret.). It is a
book written in peppery journalistic style though
Craig is no newspaperman. The panorama of history
. as each day passes is neatly compressed, each event
deftly connected by the author in magnetic sequence.
As we noted parenthetically, it's too bad history books
aren't all written this way. ·
Having read widely all histories connected with
World War II-the European and Pacific theaters,
his choice to write the "Fall of Japan," he confided,
was one that needed more telling.
Barely 16 years when WW2 ended, Craig will un-doubtedly
rank among young historians who can
help popularize history to generations too young today
to realize what Guadalcanal, Tarawa, Eniwetok and
Iwo Jima mean.
Craig is under contract to write another historical
account. His intense feeling for people big and little
who help make history and thoroughness of research
stamp him as a distinguished historian on the come.
Craig was born in 1929 in Concord, Mass., (he still
has his Boston Irish accent), the youngest of six
children. His father was a prison guard and later a
state prison warden at Cambridge. Craig now lives
in Westport, Conn., with his wife, four children and
a menagerie of three guinea pigs and a cat.

SUMITOMO BANK-KAJIMA BUILDING
Our interview with Craig broke up in time to join
the hosts of well-wishers at the Sumitomo Bank
grand opening in the new 16-story Kajima Bldg. on
the southwest corner of First and San Pedro Sts.
Since the Sumitomo Bank opened for business 15
years ago, it can be truly said that the JACL-PC
Office was sitting on top of millions. When Sumitomo
Bank occupied the Mi yako Hotel, the JACL-PC Office
occupied the second floor over the bank. When the
hotel came down, both Sumitomo Bank and the JACLPC
Office moved to the Sun Bldg. We continued to sit
over the bank on Weller St. and its millions.
Our JACL-PC Office is getting crowded-and who
knows we may still be sitting over millions again in
the near future - by moving into the Kajima Bldg.
one of these days. That idea of "sitting on top of
millions" is hard to compare or relinquish. Only this
time, it might take some of their millions to enable
us to continue enjoying the engaging right of "sitting
on top of millions."

In March one of America's finest
musical organizations made AUC's
Ewart Memorial Hall its first stop
on a tour of the Middle East. The
Robert Shaw Chorale and Concert
Orchestra presented two concerts Tues-day
the 20 and Thursday the 22.
A special University committee is
now engaged in planning for the ap-pearance
next year of other first class
artists. Mr. Edward Savage is chair-man.
Critics and audiences were enthusi-astic
in their acclaim for the Shaw
group. The tour administered by the
American National 'Theatre and . Aca-demy,
was planned to reach a new
audience — the young people of the
Middle East. After the concerts in
Cairo, the Chorale and Orchestra went
oii to American institutions of the
Near East College Association in Le-banon,
Turkey and Greece.
"Down with the Dean, long live the
Queen!" With these words Dr. John
Hollenbach, Dean of the Faculty of
Arts and Sciences, concluded in his in-troductory
remarks and set in motion
the ceremony which culminated in the
crowning of Laila Rostom as Miss AUC
1956.
Laila, the sixteenth in the succession
of the Misses AUC, was crowned
by Mr. Galal el Din el Hamamsy,
an AUC graduate, now director-gen-eral
of the Middle East News Agency.
Another honor guest, Dr. Soheir El
Kalainawy of Cairo University, and
Mr. Hamamsy, addressed the assembly
briefly in salute to the new queen.
Miss AUC 1956 was chosen by the
students of the Faculty of Arts and
Sciences in an election held March 12.
She is a senior in the Faculty of Arts
and Sciences, a journalism major, and
an editor of the Campus Caravan.
The election and coronation of Miss
AUC are conducted each year by the
editorial board of the student news-paper,
the Campus Caravan.
The assembly, Friday morning,
March 16, began much like any other.
There were perhaps a few more stu-dents
in their seats and there was of
course the golden throne in the cen-ter
of the Ewart Memorial Hall stage.
An undercurrent of excitement was to
be felt in the audience as the prelimi-
Board of Trustees
To Meet in June
At the conclusion of its two days of
meeting in mid-January, the Board of
the University voted to meet for two
more days at the end of June. The
January meeting was in Bronxville,
New York: the meeting June 29 and 30
will be in the Airport Hotel, Pitts-burgh,
Pennsylvania.
The Board spent most of its time
in the January meeting discussing pol-icy
matters that have arisen from the
self-study activities at the University
this past year. The Board author-ized
staff expansion, salary increases
and building improvements that will
move the total budget of expenditures
toward the half-million mark for next
year.
Typical of the developments author-ized
is the establishment of an English
Language Institute. This Institute,
which may eventually employ some
six or eight people and deal with sev-eral
hundreds of students, will be be-gun
on a more modest basis and will
replace the present remedial program
of "English Essentials." It is hoped
that the Institute, using linguistic
methods and devices developed dur-ing
and since the last war, will be
much more effective than the present
"Essentials" program in meeting the
increasingly difficult and important
problem of communications.
Much consideration was given to a
plan of reorganization of the Univer-sity
that would concentrate most of
the academic activities into two fac-ulties,
the undergraduate and gradu-ate.
The subject-matter divisions of
the University, the social studies, the
humanities and the sciences, will have
offerings on both the graduate and
undergraduate levels. Similarly, the
division of Oriental Studies and the
division of professional studies, incor-porating
such departments as educa-tion,
business administration, home
economics (administered in cooperation
with the American Girls' College) and
journalism will have offerings on both
academic levels.
The reorganization calls for the
establishment of an office of student
affairs, with a dean of students in
charge. Various student matters which
have hitherto been distributed admin-istratively
into many hands will be
concentrated in this one office. A sys-tem
of counseling, supervision of stu-dent
housing, administration of the
scholarship program, assistance in job
placement, along with help in plan-ning
and conducting student non-acad-emic
functions will be the responsibil-ity
of this new office.
Further, it is planned that all as-pects
of the public, non-credit program
at Cairo, along with direction of Gov-ernmental
relations will be placed in
the hands of a vice-president at Cairo.
The American program involving ac-counting,
educational relations and
this year's queen, Laila Roston?,
Aziz, Miss Roston?, Miss Olympia Kara-naries
got under way, expertly directed
by master of ceremonies Olaf Haddad,
of the Egyptian State Broadcasting
System, and a graduate of AUC.
• Mr. Haddad announced that Nabil
Khouri, a senior member of the edi-torial
board of the Campus Caravan,
would bring Miss AUC from the audi-ence.
The secret had been well kept and
the buzz of excitement mounted as
Nabil went up one aisle and down
the other looking for Miss AUC. Fi-nally
he pointed out Laila and escorted
her to the stage amid the vigorous
applause of her fellows.
Laila is active in the intra-mural
sports program and in draina. She is
an enthusiastic tennis player and a
popular participant in the social af-fairs
of the campus. For all that, she
is also a serious-minded student, and
hopes to continue her journalistic
studies in the graduate school of a
university in America, looking for-ward
to taking a place in modern
journalism in Egypt.
The new queen received many gifts
from campus organizations and busi-ness
firms in Cairo, and cups from
the Campus Caravan and the Press
Committee of Cairo University. Among
her gifts were a plane trip to Beirut,
Lebanon, and a week's stay in a Beirut
hotel.
Staff Member Wins
Soroptimist Grant
Miss Nadia Guìndi, assistant regis-trar,
has been granted a fellowship for
a year's study in the United States by
the Soroptimist International Associa-tion.
She plans to do work in the field of
Personnel Management, and has made
application for admission to the gradu-ate
school of the University of Cali-fornia
in Berkeley. She will leave
Egypt for America in July.
The grant is one of two offered by
the Soroptimist organization. The
other is given to an American woman
for study abroad.
This will be Miss Guindi's second
extended visit to the United States. A
1952 graduate of American University,
she was granted the Master of Arts
degree in 1954 by the University of
Wyoming. Her work at the Laramie
institution was in the field of sociology.
She is now supervisor of women
students and advisor to the Coeds Club
of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, in
addition to her duties in the Regis-trar's
office.
fund raising will also be placed in the
hands of a vice-president.
The reorganization will actually in-volve
no more officers than the Uni-versity
now has on the staff. It will
use the officers differently, however,
and in such a way as to work toward
the strengthening of the University
structure.
In addition to Board consideration
of the University in its various meet-ings,
three inetnliers of the Board have
visited the University during the school
year.
1)r. Joseph Van Vleck, one of the
members of the Board, with Mrs. Van
Vleck, had an extended stay in Egypt
in the early winter. Much of his time
had been spent in Cairo and at the
University. Dr. Van Vleck's particular
interests were in Demography, and he
found the center of his interest in
the University's Extension Division.
Soon after the Board meeting in Jan-uary,
Dr. J. Edward Dirks, another
trustee, spent four days in Cairo on
his way to visit India. This was his
first visit to the University, and he
wrote with enthusiasm of his first di-rect
contact with the institution.
On May 4, Dr. and Mrs. Wendell
Cleland began a two-weeks visit to the
University. Dr. Cleland, long a teach-er
and head of the Division of Exten-sion
and acting-president in 1953-54,
is an active Board member. Dr. and
Mrs. Cleland are now at Benghazi, rep-resenting
the State Department of the
U.S. in the establishment of the new
Libyan University.
It is not always that three members
of the Board visit the University with-in
one school year. There is enthusi-astic
talk now, among the Board, of
an extended Board meeting to be held
in Cairo in January 1958.
Business
Committee
Formed
On May 10 a Businessmen's Com-mittee
for the American University at
Cairo was established and held its
first meeting. The most responsible
officers of sixteen of the major firms
and corporations having American-
Middle East interests were represented.
Some twelve more indicated their ac-tive
interest in the organization. An
executive committee of six persons was
chosen to represent the larger group.
The Businessmen's Cotnmittee will
counsel with the University adminis-tration,
will seek for ways in which
the University may strengthen and ex-tend
its direct and indirect services to
business, and will find ways of provid-ing
current fund support for the
University.
President McLain and Mr. Robert
Culbertson, the newly appointed vice
president of the University, met with
the Committee. The members of the
Executive Committee are as follows:

The C. Worth Howard Student Dra-ma
Workshop was inaugurated on
Monday April 30 with a presentation
by the Maskers of Stefan Zweig's
Volpone. The audience was macle up
of alumni and friends of the Univers-ity
inNited to join in the gala occasion.
During the months of January, Feb-ruary
and March classroom 114 in the
main University building was convert-ed
into a small theatre seating 80-100
persons. Plans for the remodeling of
the room were drawn by Mr. Edward
Savage, in charge of dramatic act i\ i
ties on the campus, and Mr. Roger A.
Flynn, an American artist now in
Cairo as a Fulbright Student Fellow.
The work was supervised by Mr. Soc-rates
Patsalides, the University's su-pervisor
of property.
Volpone, based on the play by Ben
Johnson, was the first play to be pro-duced
on the stage of the Norkshop.
It was presented under the direction
of Mr. Edward Savage with skeleton

designed to point up the significance

Short Courses
To Continue
Successful experimentation with two-month
courses in spoken Egyptian
Arabic during the school year of 1955-6
has led to the decision of the School of
Oriental Studies to continue the
courses in the next academic year ac-cording
to Dean Alan Horton. These
short courses are designed for those
who need instruction quickly. Two
courses will be given each semester.
They are intended to provide the
basic language information necessary
to avoid misunderstandings in every-day
life. Spoken Arabic is transliter-ated
into a system of phonetics in
Latin characters to allow quick grasp
by those who do not anticipate any
necessity to read Arabic in the near
future.
The second course is planned for
those who feel the need for a greater
grammatical knowledge to enable them
to continue learning the language in-dependently.
1956-7 Events
The Ewart Hall Committee believes
that in cooperation with the Near East
Association and with the cultural di-visions
of the American and other
embassies in Cairo it will be possible
to bring at least five programs of high
quality to the stage of the AUC audi-torium.
Students of the University
would be admitted to these perform-ances
by "student activity" ticket.
Mr. Shaw gave some of his rehearsal
time on Thursday afternoon to talk
informally to an audience of students
and teachers about his philosophy of
music and the special meanings which
he finds in choral music. Many mem-bers
of the audience remained to listen
to him rehearse the Chorale and Or-chestra
for the evening performance.
Following the Thursday evening per-formance,
members of the organization
were guests of the University at a
reception held in Oriental Hall.
than to afford a picture of a particu-lar
era. The play was presented to
paying audiences on May 1, 2 and 3.
Funds for the remodeling and
equipping of the room were donated
by the alumni of the University. The
Workshop was named in appreciation
of Dr. Howard's long connection with
the University and his great interest
in dramatic activities at the University.
The stage is designed with steps its
full width from the apron to the floor.
This offers an opportunity for dra-matic
action to be played close to the
audience and sometimes at audience
level, in keeping with the intimate
nature of the theatre itself. The cur-tain
is of golden cloth. The chairs in
the native style, were made especially
for the new theatre.
According to Mr. Savage, the the-atre
itself is only the beginning of the
C. Worth Howard Student Drama
Workshop. Plans are in progress to
add scene and costume workshops to
provide complete facilities for prac-tice
and experiment in the dramatic
arts.
Beginning this fall the American
and other international programs of
the University will be in charge of Mr.
Robert E. Culbertson, who was re-cently
appointed Vice President of the
University. He will have his head-quarters
in the American offices in
New York City.
Mr. Culbertson spent the first two
weeks of May in Cairo, getting ac-quainted
with the University and the
members of its staff. He will return
to Cairo in October for a somewhat
longer period.
For the past three years he has been
Deputy Representative for the Near
East of the Ford Foundation with of-fices
in Beirut, Lebanon. Before this
he was for a number of years a senior
official of the Institute of Inter-Ameri-can
affairs.
Mr. Culbertson taught for a time at
the University of Southern California
from which he had received both the
B.A. and the M.S. degrees. He has
served also with the U. S. Department
of Health, Education and Welfare.
The Culbertsons and their two
daughters, 14 and six, will make their
home in New York City.
Proctor, Meinardus
New AUC Teachers
Two appointments to the teaching
staff of the University were made re-cently:
I)r. Otto F.
A. Meinardus in
the field of philo-sophy
and religion
and Dr. Jesse H.
Proctor, Jr. in the
field of political sci-ence.
Dr. Meinardus
will be chairman of the Department of
Philosophy and Religion. Most re-cently
minister of the Second Congre-gational
Church of Peabody, Mass.,
he has been pastor
of congregations in
New Zealand and
Australia.
Dr. Proctor comes
to AUC from the
Massachusetts Insti-tute
of Technology
where he is an as-sistant
professor in political science.
During 1955 and 1956, he was a visit-ing
professor in public opinion and
propaganda and American government
in Boston University.
He is a graduate of Duke Univer-sity.
His master's degree was granted
by the Fletcher School of Law and Di-plomacy
in Medford, Mass., and his
doctorate by Harvard University. A
number of articles concerned with the
effort to federate British territories in
the Caribbean have been published in
learned journals.
Dr. Meinardus' academic training
has been in the fields of sociology and
the psychology of religion, ethics, in-ternational
and race relations, political
and social philosophy, systematic the-ology
and history. His graduate de-grees,
S.T.M. and Ph.D., were granted
by the School of Theology and the
graduate School of Boston University.
At AUC, he will fill the position
held since September 1951 by Mr. Ar-thur
Brown.
AUC Will Offer
Ten-Week Orientation
Course on Egypt
A short course designed to orient
foreigners working in Egypt to all
phases of life of the country will be
offered this fall by the University in
its School of Oriental Studies.
The course will have as its purpose
the presentation in concise form of a
body of factual material on Egypt over
a space of about two and a half months.
It will meet for two sessions each week.
Each segment of the course will be
taught by a prominent Egyptian, ex-pert
in the topic under consideration.
The topics have been chosen to pre-sent
as complete a picture as possible.
In their chronological order they are:
government, economics and human re-sources,
social planning and economic
development, financial resources of
Egypt, pressures and public opinion,
foreign relations, geography, ethnog-raphy,
religions of Egypt and the ed-ucational
system of Egypt.
In keeping with the purpose and
nature of the course each teacher will
emphasize the facts of the present sit-uation
in the area he covers. Little
time will be given to historical or
theoretical discussion, since it is ex-pected
that most students will be per-sons
whose work in Egypt requires a
rapid grounding in the basic facts of
Egyptian life.
Graduate Courses,
English Instruction
Will Be Expanded
Planning for the expansion of two
important programs of the University
and inauguration of a third is now
in progress. The three are University
training in English, the Master of
Arts program, and the "Junior Year in
Egypt."
President McLain and other execu-tive
officers of the University are now
working toward the organization of a
new division of the University's aca-demic
program, which they hope will
go far toward solving a difficult prob-lem.
Known as the English Language
Institute, the new unit is designed to
meet the problem of otherwise quali-fied
prospective students who lack
sufficient competency in English to sup-port
University level courses taught in
that language.
Graduate Program Organized
The University Council has ap-proved
the organization of academic
programs for graduate studies begin-ning
this fall leading to the Master
of Arts Degree.
Degrees will be offered first in Arabic
language and literature and in sociol-ogy
and anthropology. The first has
been offered for many years in the
School of Oriental Studies. The latter
is a development from the establish-ment
of the Social Research Center in
1953. A graduate degree in the field
of education is a strong possibility in
the near future.
The "Junior Year in Egypt" pro-gram,
to begin in October 1957, will be
planned to allow the enrollment for
their Junior year of a limited number
of students from American universities
and colleges. About half of their aca-demic
work at the American University
will be in courses particularly con-cerned
with the Middle East. Field
trips in the area will be an integral
part of the program.
Specialist Will Direct Institute
Begirding in September under the
direction of a specialist in the teaching
of English as a foreign language, the
Institute will offer a concentrated pro-gram
of instruction. The course is open
to persons applying for entrance to the
credit courses of the University without
sufficient proficiency in English, whose
records and test scores show them to
have promise in achieving the required
level in a semester or a year.
The Institute course will be taught in
a daytime section and an evening sec-tion.
Students of the former will meet
for group instruction about twenty
hours a week. They will spend addi-tional
time in the language laboratory.
Plans for the Institute call for the con-siderable
use of audio-visual equipment.
Evening section students will spend
fewer hours, about half as many, in
group meetings and will proceed at a
proportionately slower pace. Students
will be allowed to proceed to credit
courses of the University when they
have gained the necessary competency.
The Director of the Institute will be
responsible to the University units for
the preparation of students to meet
their entrance standards in English. In
this he will have the assistance of a
second person with linguistic training
and two or three instructors trained in
the techniques of classroom drill and
audio-visual work.
Graduate Enrollment Limited
The reorganization of the University
to allow for the establishment of a
graduate faculty has come about in
response to the increasing importance
of sound graduate training for young
people who will work in this area. The
University also feels that the inter-action
within the institution of trained
scholars and graduate students from
both East and West is a step toward
international understanding.
The number of graduate students in
any year will be limited. In this way
close attention can be paid to indi-vidual
strengths and weaknesses. Final
decisions have not yet been made on
detailed requirements for the degree.
Other degree possibilities are in the
fields of English Language and Liter-ature,
Library Science and Business
Administration.
Formal inauguration of the "Junior
Year" program is scheduled for the
year 1957-1958 after all details have
been completed. The University will
welcome, however, American junior stu-dents
who wish to enroll as individuals
at the beginning of the 1956-1957 year
this October.
The English Language Institute grew
from a study of the English competency'
of American University students made
in the first semester of 1955-1956 by a
sub-committee of the University Coun-cil:
Deans Hollenbach, Boktor, and
Horton of the Faculties of Arts and
Sciences and Education and the School
of Oriental Studies.

Author: Shirley Marcela Fernández Gallardo Scientific Director: Jael Contreras Rangel Key Words: Impact, Graduate, Program, Conceptualization, Bacteriology Insertion, University.
SUMMARY In recent years, higher education institutions have carried out self-assessment processes for the purpose of quality accreditation of their academic programs, to meet the needs of both their students and graduates as well as society in general, regarding the labor market and the expectations of human and social development. According to the above, the general objective of this research was to establish the conceptual and methodological foundations of the Impact Assessment of Graduates of the Bacteriology and Clinical Laboratory Program, the methodology used was based on a descriptive study, with documentary design, within the materials used in the collection of information was used to search for indexed journals from different databases such as EBSCO, Scielo, Redalcy, Dialnet, Index, among others, 30 indexed articles that obtained information on the impact of graduates were taken from the search, Once the articles were found with relevant information on the impact of graduates, the information was gathered to prepare the conceptualization matrix showing the different foundations that make possible a good study of graduates, once that, the elaboration of the respective chapters is continued of the study. As a result, it was possible to demonstrate a large number of concepts that made up the respective studies analyzed, which showed that they are the most appropriate to discuss the impact of graduates, the study concludes that thanks to this type of research, higher education institutions can undertake processes of continuous improvement of the quality of education, through curricular transformations and policy design according to the needs of graduates and the demands of the environment, in addition to this, that graduates can realize how important they are as people and as professionals for society and for companies.Título: FUNDAMENTOS CONCEPTUALES Y METODOLOGICOS DE LA EVALUACION DE IMPACTO DE LOS EGRESADOS DEL PROGRAMA DE BACTERIOLOGIA Y LABORATORIO CLINICO DE LA UNIVERSIDAD DE SANTANDER SEDE CUCUTA.

RESUMEN
En los últimos años, las instituciones de educación superior han realizado procesos de autoevaluación con fines de acreditación de calidad de sus programas académicos, para satisfacer las necesidades tanto de sus estudiantes y egresados, así como de la sociedad en general, respecto al mercado laboral y a las expectativas de desarrollo humano y social. De acuerdo a lo anterior, el objetivo general de esta investigación fue establecer los fundamentos conceptuales y metodológicos de la Evaluación de Impacto de los Egresados del Programa de Bacteriología y Laboratorio clínico, la metodología utilizada partió de un estudio descriptivo, con diseño documental, dentro de los materiales utilizados en la recolección de información se empleó la búsqueda de revistas indexadas de diferentes bases de datos como EBSCO, Scielo, Redalcy, Dialnet, Índex entre otras, se tomaron dentro de la búsqueda 30 artículos indexados que obtuvieran información de impacto de egresados, una vez encontrados los artículos con información pertinente de impacto de egresados se realizó el arqueo de esa información para elaborar la matriz de conceptualización mostrando los diferentes fundamentos que posibilitan un buen estudio a egresados, una vez eso, se prosigue a la elaboración de los respectivos capítulos del estudio. como resultados se pudo evidenciar gran cantidad de conceptos que conformaron los respectivos estudios analizados de los cuales se evidenció que son los más apropiados para hablar de impacto de egresados, el estudio concluye que gracias a este tipo de investigaciones, las instituciones de educación superior, pueden emprender procesos de mejoramientos continuo de la calidad de la educación, a través de transformaciones curriculares y del diseño de políticas acorde a las necesidades de los egresados y las exigencias del medio, además de ello, que los egresados pueden darse cuenta de que tan importante son como personas y como profesionales para la sociedad y para las empresas.CONTENIDO

The development of a detector system for mint object spectroscopy on the Isaac Newton telescope
No full textThe work reported in this thesis describes the development of the CCD instrumentation for the Faint Object Spectrograph on the 2.5m Isaac Newton Telescope at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos, more commonly known as the La Palma Observatory. The Faint Object Spectrograph is a highly efficient, fixed-format CCD spectrograph aimed at low resolution spectrophotometry (15-20 A FWHM) over a wide spectral range (400-1050 nm). Its high throughput, compared with that of more conventional spectrographs, is due to the small number of optical surfaces, and the minimum vignetting which results from, locating the CCD inside the spectrograph camera. A CCD camera system is described which was developed primarily to test and commission the Faint Object Spectrograph, but also to assess the characteristics of the GEC P8603 CCD used In the spectrograph, and optimize its performance for this application. The use of CCDs in astronomy is now commonplace but there still remains some uncertainty as to which aspects of their performance need to be most critically assessed when choosing a device for a particular application. It is argued that it is important to consider not only the obvious characteristics such as quantum efficiency, spectral coverage, readout noise and geometrical format, but also, and particularly at astronomically relevant low-light levels, the consequences of the more subtle properties such as charge transfer efficiency, threshold effects and chip defects. The CCD detector in the Faint Object Spectrograph is located inside the spectrograph camera and needs to be positioned to high accuracy within the optical path. A microprocessor system is described which enables the CCD detector to be aligned remotely from the observer's control console. Finally, the commissioning of the Faint Object Spectrograph on the Isaac Newton Telescope is described, and some of the first results obtained during commissioning are presented in order to illustrate its potential in the field of faint object spectroscopy
