Women's Rules in the University 1930's-1970

I choose to do my research on the history of women???s rules within the university system. I tried to stick within the time line of the early 1930???s and beyond. As I was looking at the rules and regulations from different universities around the country I decided it was a great idea to do a compare and contrast to those from U of I. In doing so I found that majority of the colleges including our university had similar if not the same rules spread across this time period. I used the first part of my research discussing rules I found at other universities via scholarly journals and books. I then used our archives library to research rules and regulations from the university of Illinois and compared it to the rules that I found at other universities. I also found interviews from women students who attended the university during the 1930???s through the 40???s and gained insight to how they felt about the rules and regulations they had to deal with during those times. In doing this research I found a lot of interesting, strict, and peculiar rules. I also found ways that women went about to get around the rules and still do their own things. Overall I decided to do my research project on this to bring about awareness that this was something women in previous generations had to go through as college students. When my class took a visit to the archives earlier in the semester and we came across these rules I became very intrigued by them because it was something that I had no idea ever existed. I chose to do my paper on this topic because not only do I find it interesting but also I think other students should be made aware that there were rules in place once upon a time and they were just for women

Getting to the Source of Ethical Issues

Research with open source software (OSS) raises the same ethical issues as other disciplines in which publicly released materials are the objects of study, and the creators of those materials are still living. These disciplines are literary and artistic criticism and public policy research. As El-Emam (this issue) mentioned there are also similarities to research employing internet newsgroup posts as data.Les recherches effectu\ue9es dans le domaine des logiciels \ue0 code source libre soul\ue8vent les m\ueames probl\ue8mes d'\ue9thique que dans les autres disciplines, o\uf9 des documents diffus\ue9s dans le public font l'objet d'\ue9tudes, alors que leurs auteurs sont toujours vivants. La critique litt\ue9raire, la critique artistique et les recherches sur les politiques gouvernementales constituent de telles disciplines. Comme le mentionne \ue9galement M. El Emam (dans ce num\ue9ro), il existe \ue9galement des similitudes avec les recherches qui font appel \ue0 des documents diffus\ue9s par des groupes de nouvelles sur l'Internet.Peer reviewed: YesNRC publication: Ye

Ethical Issues in Empirical Studies of Software Engineering

The popularity of empirical methods in software engineering research is on the rise. Surveys, experiments, metrics, case studies, and field studies are examples of empirical methods used to investigate both software engineering processes and products. The increased application of empirical methods has also brought about an increase in discussions about adapting these methods to the peculiarities of software engineering. In contrast, the ethical issues raised by empirical methods have received little, if any, attention in the software engineering literature. This article is intended to introduce the ethical issues raised by empirical research to the software engineering research community, and to stimulate discussion of how best to deal with these ethical issues. Through a review of the ethical codes of several fields that commonly employ humans and artifacts as research subjects, we have identified major ethical issues relevant to empirical studies of software engineering. These issues are illustrated with real empirical studies of software engineering
