...racial equality by the Equal Protection clause. The clause was a deciding factor in cases that involved racism. Though it sometimes limited rights, the Equal Protection clause eventually became a key element to justice. Lum vs. Rice (1927) was a Supreme Court case where the Mississippi education board did not allow a nine year old girl to attend the all-white Rosedale Consolidated School because of her ethnicity. Gong Lum’s daughter, Martha Lum, was Chinese and a native-born in the United States. One day, a superintendent at Rosedale told Martha to leave school because she was not Caucasian. Gong Lum later filed for suit and the state trial court was in his favor. The state took the issue to officials to readmit Martha Lum, however, the Supreme Court opposed the state’s decision. The Supreme Court supported their argument from the Cumming vs. Richmond County Board of Education case (1899) where it showed that schools are allowed to be separated for white and “colored” students. They also focused on whether or not Martha Lum was being denied of her equal protection of the laws from the 14th Amendment. This brought the Supreme Court to uphold the Plessy vs. Ferguson case (1896) by approaching the concept “separate but equal.” They declared that Martha Lum was not white and the Board of Trustees was allowed to exclude her from Rosedale. In 1954, the Brown family went against the Board of Education because they believed segregated schools can never be equal despite their similar...

...Sexual Harassment of Female Secondary to Undergraduate Students in Elite Educational Institutes of Lahore Danyal Haider Raja Qaiser Zeeshan Butt Osama Eshaq Rabia Nafees Shah Academic Writing June 27th 2015 Lahore School of Economics Sexual Harassment of Female Secondary to Undergraduate Students in Elite Educational Institutes of Lahore Introduction The idea for this research sprung from the rising trend of illicit student-teacher relationships in the United States of America, projected actively on the social media. This movement inspired the thought that such behavior may well be prevalent in Pakistan as well and never come to the forefront. The research aims to identify the types of harassment that exist in the secondary and undergraduate sectors of education in Pakistan and the reasons why these incidents are not brought to the attention of the legal system. So far there has not been a study on female sexual harassment in Pakistan that explores the incidence of harassment among the female student community, which is irksome especially given the recent accusations of harassment leveled against an instructor at the Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS), a prestigious university in a posh area of Lahore. One would assume that such an incident would be stimulus enough for rights’ groups to initiate a research into this aspect of female harassment, which is why we have taken it upon ourselves to do so. The research will be primary in nature, conducted...

...NOTE: “Students” and “customers” are interchangeable terms for this text. 1. Website is one of the touch points for the customer. Customers search information through websites and often build positive or negative image about the organization (based on their experience with the website). Hence, an error free interactive website should be the aim of a company. Even small typographical mistakes should not be overlooked. * Virtual visit of campus could be an option offered on website to attract potential customers. Virtual campus tours are offered to reduce the fear and doubts of the potential students about particular university, which may result in increased enrollment. Virtual tour should highlight the class room environment, computer labs, library, sports facilities, garden, and cafeteria. 2. Based on market survey industry specific elective courses should be offered to class of minimum 15 students by industry specialist facilitators. For example Pharmaceutical marketing, Media Planning, Financial services marketing, Education Marketing or Finance and HRM elective courses etc. However, per course profit margin would be decrease in this case. We can share this burden with the students (up to some extent) by charging 10-15% more fees on such courses. These courses have greater utilization for MBA evening or Weekend programs. 3.

...recognition of universities and the funds availabe are the main determinants of the differnces in educational standards in public and private sector universities in Pakistan.The public universities are managed by government appointed officials and the government is responsible to fund them. Whereas the private universities are operated by entrepreneurs with the aim of providing better education, which only few are able to fulfill. Now-a-days, the public universities are making attempts to make their curriculum more useful to the students. They are trying to pay more attention towards the realistic demonstration and illustration of the knowledge imparted to students enrolled. A good example of this is evident in the projects of the students of the University of Engineering and Technology (UET), Lahore depicts the practical implementation of their technical knowledge. Recently, a five member team of UET students called PakTech qualified to the worldwide finals of Microsoft Imagine 2011 by making an economical Touch Surface. However, this doesnot happens in all the public universities. The curriculum followed is not regularly revised in some of the government driven institutions. Because of this reason, some of the public universities are not preferred. On the other side, the curriculum followed by most of the private universities have some imperfections like that in public universities. The private universities portrays that their curriculum...

Which of these seem to you to be the strongest? The weakest? Can you think of different kinds of arguments not discussed in the text?

...Tedesco 1 Justina Tedesco Professors name Subject 30 April 2012 The Women Of Laos Before Understanding the women of this beautiful culture, one must first look into its past. The modern state was established by French colonialism between 1893 and 1954: The French delineated the borders and wrote the first national history of Laos. It was also the French who began restoring monuments and constructing a "national" literature. This work was continued by a small group of intellectuals under the RLG associated with the Literature Committee and by the Royal Academy. A nationalist movement was encouraged by the French during World War II, and became an independence movement, the Lao Issara. This movement is a claimed by both Communists and anti-Communists. The current regime claims to be the true nationalist heir, but it came to power and survived only with the military assistance of the Vietnamese. This reliance tarnished its nationalist credentials after 1975, but declining reliance on Vietnam in the 1990s boosted those credentials. More people of Lao ethnic origin live in Thailand than in Laos. Laos was almost absorbed into Siam and that has tinged Lao national identity with fears of disappearance. The fact that most ethnic Lao in the Thai northeast do not identify themselves with the Lao nation-state is a source of confusion, blurring the cultural boundary between Laos and Thailand. Although Lao and Thai languages are very close, central Thai is the key Tedesco 2 cultural...

...India on the move By Jazib Zahir MBA students often study a case titled "India on the Move" published by Harvard Business School. The case touches upon recent attempts by the Indian government to liberalise the country's economy and this is cited as a key factor behind India's prodigious growth rate over the last two decades. The case conveys a sense of excitement around the business opportunities present in this vast land through facts, figures and analysis. But you can't understand a country by reading about it anymore than you can understand business just by reviewing a textbook. Fortunately, I had a chance to visit some of the major cities in India for a few days and form some superficial impressions of the business environment there. The first thing I noticed when I disembarked in Delhi was the wealth of foreigners in the land. Indeed, as I exited the airport, the number of Caucasians and East Asians on site was comparable to the number of natives. Wherever I went, it was common to see foreigners assimilated into the work environment. Many had brought over their spouses and children to live in the country, even if their stay was meant to be temporary only. In fact diversity, even in subtle ways, was the hallmark of my time spent at an office in Delhi. It was common for all the team members, including the management, to sit around one table at lunch time. The team included people from different religious backgrounds and a range of dietary restrictions was in place. However...

...Job Analysis Paper Megan Griffin-Lum PSY/435 December 20, 2011 Neva Wilson Job Analysis Paper In today’s society, student’s families are broken, violence is standard, language barriers run high, and learning is not a high priority among individuals. Counselors characteristically deal with students who have behavioral issues, emotional problems, and tangible needs. A shoulder to cry on, an ear to hear, and an unyielding facilitator of the rules are what educational counselors should employ. Prior to becoming a successful school counselor, one needs to become a part of the education system as a certified teacher. According to the Interstate New Teachers Assessment and Support Consortium, 10 principles are significant when assessing a likely candidate for the job as school counselor. The principles consist of "making content meaningful, child development and learning theory, learning styles/diversity, instructional strategies/problem solving, motivation and behavior, communication/knowledge, planning for instruction, assessment, professional growth/reflection, and interpersonal relationships" (INTASC, 2008). Numerous educators, particularly at the elementary school level, have a packed classroom with nominal resources in view to discipline. It is key to maintain a firm steadiness of authority in order to uphold an apt environment for learning. Students across the spectrum face obstacles in regards to a continuance of love for school and learning...

...Education Changing with Immigration Rachel Villarreal Vasquez PPA 604 Urban Planning/Redevelopment Professor; Lum July 12, 2014 Education Changing with Immigration Controversy about changes in our education has surrounded the United States for a number of years. But immigration has changed the way we teach our children in the United States today, in the past, currently and trending we are beginning to cater to our environment. The education in the United States is no longer the leading one in the World. The United States was known for producing the most educated college students placing them in the highest ranked jobs. Yet, personally immigration did affect the way that education was presented to me, my family and my community. A perspective personal journey of the education lived by an American born child to an immigrant Mexican Mother and an Indian Father whose own foundation is built on education which can and will empower millions of children. Free access to education had always been the key to the success of educating men, women and children. Yet, I can still remember the personal experience that left its long lasting effects, as it has for many others equally. The changes that happen from generation to generation as education changed due to the immigration of people into the United States. As presented in the following article, “At the dawn of the twenty-first century, immigrants were coming to the United States in near record numbers, reminiscent of the great...

...Music Of Thailand Music of Thailand The music of Thailand reflects its geographic position at the intersection of China and India, and reflects trade routes that have historically included Persia, Africa, Greece and Rome. Thai musical instruments are varied and reflect ancient influence from far afield - including the klong thap and khim (Persian origin), the jakhe (Indian origin), the klong jin(Chinese origin), and the klong kaek (Indonesian origin). Though Thailand was never colonized by colonial powers, pop music and other forms of modern Asian, European and American music have become extremely influential. The two most popular styles of traditional Thai music are luk thung and mor lam; the latter in particular has close affinities with the Music of Laos. Classical music Thai classical music is synonymous with those stylized court ensembles and repertoires that emerged in its present form within the royal centers of Central Thailand some 800 years ago. These ensembles, while being deeply influenced by Khmer and even older practices and repertoires from India, are today uniquely Thai expressions. Traditional Thai classical repertoire is anonymous, handed down through an oral tradition of performance in which the names of composers (if, indeed, pieces were historically created by single authors) are not known. However, since the beginning of the modern Bangkok period, composers' names have been known and, since around the turn of the century, many...

COURSE OBJECTIVE | Objective of this program is to generate basic level understanding and translating conceptual exposure in very congenial atmosphere among the students and professional that why supply chain management is among the top initiatives for businesses of all sizes. Yet most purchasing, operation, planning, and finance managers feel they don’t have good control over their supply chains. Even the best informed are saddled with questions about establishing organization buy-in, defining metrics and benchmarks, optimizing material and transactional flow, and conducting relevant competitive analysis to define business opportunities. The challenges involved in optimizing a company’s supply chain are substantial. The proposed course outline grew out of a number of supply chain management courses or workshop conducted in Executive Education programs I have taught extensively in many universities within and outside Pakistan over the past five years as well as number of projects I have handled in the field of designing the supply chain model within Pakistan or and other countries of the world. The course outline is more or less similar to the topics...

...Family and friends that do not commit harsher crimes are still more likely to attract police attention. African Americans are also more vulnerable to being entered into the criminal justice system. “In 2011, they were six times more likely than whites to be incarcerated, making up 38% of the 1.6 million Americans behind bars while accounting for only 13% of the U.S. population (Norton).” This is believed to be partly from the fact that they typically receive longer sentences. For an example, whites typically receive a sentence of about fourteen months for drug possession while blacks typically receive a sentence of seventeen months for the same crime. With this belief in mind, statistician Kristian Lum and her colleagues conducted a study to find out why imprisonment is more transmissible among blacks than whites. They created a computer simulation to see how an incarceration epidemic could develop. They created a virtual community of 8000 people, assigning each person a gender, a partner, some number of children, siblings, friends, and a lifespan. About 60,000 relationships were developed and 1% of this population was incarcerated. They also...

Board of Education, 347 U.S. 483 (1954) (USSC+) 347 U.S. 483 Argued December 9, 1952 Reargued December 8, 1953 Decided May 17, 1954 APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF KANSAS* Syllabus Segregation of white and Negro children in the public schools of a State solely on the basis of race, pursuant to state laws permitting or requiring such segregation, denies to Negro children the equal protection of the laws guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment -- even though the physical facilities and other "tangible" factors of white and Negro schools may be equal. (a) The history of the Fourteenth Amendment is inconclusive as to its intended effect on public education. (b) The question presented in these cases must be determined not on the basis of conditions existing when the Fourteenth Amendment was adopted, but in the light of the full development of public education and its present place in American life throughout the Nation. (c) Where a State has undertaken to provide an opportunity for an education in its public schools, such an opportunity is a right which must be made available to all on equal terms. (d) Segregation of children in public schools solely on the basis of race deprives children of the minority group of equal educational opportunities, even though the physical facilities and other "tangible" factors may be equal. (e) The "separate but equal" doctrine adopted in Plessy v. Ferguson, 163 U.S. 537...
