The School of Business and Writer's Place Partnership at The College of New Jersey

Like many institutions, The College of New Jersey, a public college with an undergraduate student population of about 6000, is grappling with the role and quality of undergraduate writing. Moreover, we are doing so in the context of a recent curricular revision through which all courses were transformed from 3credits to 4-credits and departments in the liberal arts and professional schools have begun to develop writing intensive courses. One goal driving this curricular revision was to have students dive more deeply into the subjects they study by writing more and better. Through this curricular change, we wrestled with questions such as “how will changes in the curriculum affect what kind and how much writing students do?” and “what effect will curricular transformation have on the balance between content and writing?” A key concern for many faculty centered on not being sure how to teach writing and to respond to student papers. As our community focused attention on these matters, we discovered unexpected and fruitful opportunities for collaboration across program and disciplinary lines. One such collaboration between The School of Business and The Write Place began last year in response to faculty concerns about the quality of student papers.University Writing Cente

The Power of Places

My senior project is an art exhibition entitled The Power of Places that explores the places that have shaped me and how they have done so through photography-centered multimedia collages, cyanotypes, and physical artifacts. This theme was born from the intensity of the emotional tie that forms between person and place, between heart and home. I believe we are a collection of the places that have shaped us. These places hold our stories, our memories, and everything that makes us who we are; we don’t notice it happening, but these locations become ingrained in our lives. I believe we are the product of the places that make us. Memories are written into us by the hand of their homes. This is how we connect to our surroundings- every place holds our stories, and when we visit those places, we don\u27t only see a landscape, but everything that place means to us. We’ve all heard the saying “if these walls could talk.” This project is my way of speaking what they would say, describing everything they’ve seen. This series was meant to illustrate the way a place becomes an integral part of who we are

The public data method: an alternative procedure for estimating toxic releases in the production of petrochemicals for the materials production stage of a life-cycle inventory

An alternative technique for estimating toxic releases in the production of petrochemicals for the materials production stage of a life-cycle inventory was developed. This procedure is called the Public Data Method and is based on data sources available from the public domain - the Toxic Release Inventory, the Chemical Guide to United States, selected literature sources, Chemical Marketing Reporter chemical profiles, and the Environmental Protection Agency\u27s Sector Facility Indexing Project notebook on petroleum refining. Petrochemical databases for polystyrene, high-density polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, polycarbonate, and ethylene glycol were created by the Public Data Method and presented as examples of this methodology. Results were mixed, with the positive result of speciation of toxic releases, but negative result of inconsistent datum values when compared to values from other data sources. Advantages of the Public Data Method are generation of speciated data of toxic chemical emissions, less aggregation than is found in the data sources of conventional life-cycle inventories, data that is current and date-specific, and less labor-intensive than current methods. Although the Public Data Method as presented in this study was applied to petrochemicals, it could be used for other materials based on sector facility reports of other industries such as, aluminum, copper, lead, or zinc refining, the iron and steel industry, metal mining extraction, glass and other industries

The Ohio Rules of Civil Procedure and Their Effect on Real Property Titles

T HE REVOLUTION IS HERE! It has come quietly, almost without a murmur of opposition or civil discord. Indeed, many who will be most profoundly affected by it were not-are not even now, perhaps-aware of its coming. But it is here, nevertheless. The revolution in question, of course, relates not to some massive proletarian uprising which many today profess to see upon the horizon, but to the revolution in Ohio procedural law which became effective on July 1, 1970. For a revolution indeed it is, bringing changes so sweeping in their nature that the procedural law, both statutory and judge-made, which was in effect in Ohio on June 30, 1970 is now largely of interest only to legal historians and other collectors of the relics of a bygone age (including those associated with the land title industry). The practicing attorney must immediately bring himself abreast of this radical turn of events, since the new Ohio Rules of Civil Procedure apply to all civil cases in process on July 1 as well as to those commenced on or after that date
