An Analysis Of The Relationship Between Distance From Campus And Gpa Of Commuter Students
A variety of factors influence a student’s ability to succeed in college and complete a degree program. Students who live on-campus, at least during their freshman year, have been shown to be more likely to complete their degrees than are students who live off-campus. Students who are commuters may have more demands on their time and may have fewer opportunities to develop a strong commitment to their studies and to their university. It may be hypothesized that students who live farther away from a campus may find it more difficult to attend classes and to complete outside tasks required by their classes. In an initial test of this hypothesis, an examination of the relationship between a commuter student’s distance from campus and his/her overall grade point average is assessed. Results do not support this hypothesis. Possible reasons for this finding and directions for future research are discussed.

An histochemical study of the changing patterns of glycogen distribution in the estrus cycle and post partum (non lactation) uterus of the golden hamster (Mesocricetus auratus Waterhouse)
This histochemical study deals with the changing patterns of
glycogen in the uterus of the immature virgin, cycling virgin, and
post partum (non-lactating) golden hamster (Mesocricetus auratus
Waterhouse). The periodic acid-Schiff technique was used for the
histochemical localization of glycogen in the uterus of the immature,
cycling and non-lactating post partum (days 1 through 10, 12, and
14) hamster. Diastase controls were employed to determine the specific
sites of glycogen throughout this organ. During the sexual cycle,
the total uterine glycogen content is low in both metestrus and diestrus
uteri, slightly higher in the proestrus uterus, and maximal in the
estrus uterus. The glycogen content in every phase of the cycle exceeds
that found in the immature hamster uterus. In proestrus, glycogen is present in the outer myometrium and blood vessel tunic in
moderate amounts, and in minimal amounts in the inner myometrium,
endometrial glands, and uterine lumen. The uterine epithelium stains
lightly for diffuse glycogen at this time. During estrus, glycogen increases
to large amounts in both the endometrial glands and uterine
lumen, but to small amounts at most in both the inner myometrium and
uterine epithelium. Glycogen remains in moderate amounts in the
outer myometrium and blood vessel tunic. Decreases in glycogen content
are seen in all areas of the uterus during metestrus: the outer
myometrium contains small amounts of glycogen; the endometrial
glands, vascular tunic and uterine lumen all demonstrate minimum
amounts of glycogen; and both the inner myometrium and uterine epithelium
stain lightly for diffuse glycogen. During diestrus, glycogen
content increases slightly in both the inner myometrium and uterine
lumen, but remains unchanged in the outer myometrium, blood vessel
tunic, and uterine epithelium. The endometrial glands contain no
glycogen at this time. Throughout the estrus cycle, glycogen is either
absent, or present in varying amounts of the diffuse form in both the
endometrial stroma and basement membrane of the uterine epithelium.
No glycogen is present in the perimetrium during the estrus cycle.
During the first six days after parturition, there is a rise in the
amounts of myometrial glycogen above those found in the myometrium
of the uteri of both cycling and immature hamsters. Throughout the rest of the post partum period however, myometrial glycogen deposits
return to estrus cycle values. The vascular tunic contains markedly
more glycogen during the first seven days post partum than in the last
half of the period studied, while glycogen content in the uterine lumen
fluctuates greatly during the post partum period studied. Relatively
insignificant amounts of glycogen occur in the endometrial stroma,
endometrial glands, and the uterine epithelium and associated basement
membrane, throughout this period. Glycogen is absent from the
perimetrium during this post partum period. In comparison with the
amount of uterine glycogen at term as given by York and Hillemann
(1968), the post parturient content is relatively lower; however, during
the first seven days after parturition, the glycogen levels are still
above those found in the uteri of all cycling hamsters, except those in
estrus. Throughout the post partum period studied, total uterine
glycogen is slightly higher in amount in non-lactating (post partum)
animals, than in the lactating post partum animals studied by
Wicklund (1968). The suggested relationship of glycogen and uterine
energy requirements is discussed
