Resources in Europe of interest to mathematics teachers,
Thesis (M.A.)--Boston University. This thesis was written in conjunction with Dennis J. Roberts, Mary Lee McLaughlin and Robert F. Pierce.Statement of the problem:
It is the purpose of this thesis to formulate plans for a guided tour throughout Western Europe for secondary-school teachers with emphasis on present and past mathematical and allied science contributions. This study will serve as an answer to four fundamental questions:
1. What are the resources available in Europe of value to mathematics teachers?
2. From the standpoint of marginal utility, which of these would be the most important?
3. where are they to be found?
4. How long would it take to see each of them profitably in a limited amount of time? [TRUNCATED

Involving Students in Securing a Future for Fraternal Organizations
Started in 2002, the Fraternal Futures initiative offers students, staff, faculty, and general community members a new way to think about change in fraternities and sororities. The project models the National Issues Forum (NIF) deliberations, a process where participants are encouraged to engage in a different way of framing complex issues. Fraternal Futures deliberations offer participants a chance to discuss change strategies from various lenses, recognizing that a typical debate style of conversation often leaves many participants unhappy and does not address the intricacies that go along with tough decisions. With over 1,100 student participants at ten different colleges/universities, results from Fraternal Futures indicate that if serious change is to occur in fraternal life, it must begin by engaging students in authentic, meaningful conversations. Further results denote that students are not only willing to have these conversations, but many students become more informed, committed, and reflective in their actions as a outcome of their participation in the program
