Albert Valdes – 120
Ülikooli loodusteaduskonda, 1909. a aga läks üle arstiteaduskonda ja lõpetas selle 1914. a. III kursuse üliõpilasena hakkas A. Valdes prof V. Afanasjevi juhendamisel loomkatsete varal välja selgitama salvarsaani toksilist mõju kudedele ja 1912. a aastal sai ta teadusliku uurimuse eest kuldmedali (1). Aastatel 1912–1914 töötas ta TÜ patoloogia instituudi prosektori abi kohusetäitjana ja samal ajal patoloogilise anatoomia assistendina Tartu loodus- ja meditsiiniteaduste eraülikoolis (Rostovtsevi eraülikool). Instituudi teaduslik õhkkond vaimustas Valdest ja oli pikemata selge, et temast saab patoloog. Looduse poolt oli noormehele kaasa antud suurepärane joonistamisoskus (2). A Valdes abiellus 1912. a Rostovtsevi eraülikoolis õppiva Maria Valsiga, abiellumiseks tuli luba küsida ülikooli rektorilt (2).

Painted Ferocity: The Social Behaviors of African Wild Dogs, Threats to Survival, and Resulting Conservation Initiatives
African Wild Dogs (Lycaon pictus) are an endangered species of canid from Sub-Saharan Africa. They are very social communal hunters, and are capable of chasing down prey for long stretches of time. Wild dogs benefit a savannah ecosystem by regulating the populations of their prey so that it does not become unhealthy and overgrown. Like many organisms, wild dogs are also in competition with other predators for resources, namely lions and hyenas, who are capable of stealing their kills and occasionally injuring and killing them. Due to the depletion of their wild prey, wild dogs may also prey upon farmers’ livestock, which puts the dogs at risk of being shot or poisoned by humans. Domestic dogs can also transmit deadly diseases to wild dogs, hindering their chances of survival. Conservation efforts are focused on educating local populations on the ecological importance of wild dogs as well as cooperating with local communities to implement traditional methods of livestock husbandry to reduce rates of livestock predation by wild dogs. Conservationists have also been attempting to vaccinate packs who are at risk of contracting diseases like rabies, as well as reintroducing groups of dogs to areas they once resided in the hopes of re-establishing small populations. It is crucial that these animals are protected so that future generations can learn about their behaviors and so be motivated to conserve them

This reflective poem about the self and being in a new area is based on the total solar eclipse (dubbed the Great American Eclipse) that occurred on August 21, 2017. It explores themes similar to those raised in discussions about the case of Charity Lamb.https://digitalcommons.linfield.edu/aha_2017/1003/thumbnail.jp

A review of daily conversations and practices at home: Exploring practices that promote early literacy in Spanish-speaking homes and home-school interactions
Coming from a low-income heritage language family, like 17% of Latino families, entails important academic risk factors related to lower scores on reading tests. Considering that it is estimated that Latino students will represent 50% of the U.S. public schools’ population by 2050, their literacy learning must be supported adequately. The purpose of this literature review is to explore, from an ecocultural perspective, early literacy practices of low-income Spanish-speaking families and analyze the nature of literacy home-school interventions implemented for this group. The literature highlights non-traditional literacy practices that are strengths of the Latino families, such as a robust oral tradition focused on social cues, children’s engagement in written household chores, and the use of the Bible to pass values. Parents have mixed beliefs regarding literacy promotion: they do not feel prepared to support their children; thus, they support teachers as experts. Three types of home-school literacy interventions were found: printed material sharing; printed material exchange; family programs. As the literature posits, interventions should consider and be based on family beliefs, culture, and strengths; otherwise, effectivity and attrition are at risk. Moreover, new research should be conducted to bridge the gap regarding the role of family actors other than the mother, as well as the differences within the Latino community and immigrant generation
