Assignment How Funding and Competing Budgeting Priorities Impact Hi.docx
Assignment: How Funding and Competing Budgeting Priorities Impact Higher Education
At one time, state and federal sources provided a large percentage of funding for many public and private institutions of higher education. However, this has changed so that even many public institutions receive only small percentages of funding from government sources. As these funding sources change, institutions must reconsider their programs, their models, and their priorities.
A full budget at a large institution could be hundreds of pages in length and require a large, dedicated team of professionals to develop. To analyze a full budget is beyond the scope of this course, but it is typically part of the responsibilities for anyone in a leadership position. While you review budget documents, look for information about specific funding priorities.
To prepare:
Consider the relationship between funding and priorities. Then, do the following:
Select an institution and research any publicly available documentation on its fiscal year budgets.
Check with the Walden Library for resources.
To complete:
Write a 4- to 5-page paper in which you analyze how the budget impacts competing priorities. Explain how you would decide these issues, and include the following:
A brief description of the institution you have selected and the size and scope of its budget
A description of at least two funding priorities at the institution and, as best as you can determine, the rationale for such priorities
An analysis of the budget to identify at least two potential competing priorities that might result from the budget plan
A description of any public comments from legislators, the public, or other stakeholders
A proposal for how you would resolve competing priorities
An explanation of how you would reach out to stakeholders who have expressed public concerns
Your paper should be written in a scholarly manner using APA formatting. Provide URL links to information about the institution you selected and its budget.

Contemporary theatre, both commercial and non-commercial, has .docx
Contemporary theatre, both commercial and non-commercial, has seen a huge increase in diversity -- diversity among playwrights and their plays, actors, directors, designers and theatre practitioners. Diverse artists have always shown themselves to be an integral part of theatre and theatre history, though in contemporary theatre they are sometimes referred to “artists of a diverse background” instead of just theatre artists.
These artists come from a selection of groups, cultures and categories including, but not limited by:
Gender-Specific (i.e. Female)
Native American
Hispanic
African-American
Asian-American
Gay and Lesbian
and others
This assignment requires you to...
select one person
(playwright, actor, designer, etc.) from the groups listed above
explore, prepare and discuss
his or her historical, social and cultural importance to what we call “diverse contemporary theatre” today (the focus here is on theatre not their impact to film, television or music)
Create your response, in the Assignment submission box below (not in the Comments field), as a journal or diary entry. This response will not be read by your fellow classmates. The journal should be 1-2 pages long, approximately 400-500 words minimum. Be careful of spelling, grammar, capitalization, and punctuation...proofread and edit your work as necessary. Please cite your sources if any are used, including any videos or links used. This assignment will be graded according to the Journal Rubric attached.

Contemporary prison overcrowding short-term fixes to aperpe.docx
Contemporary prison overcrowding: short-term fixes to a
perpetual problem

Birmingham, Birmingham, AL, USA
(Received 6 February 2013; accepted 8 June 2013)
Since the United States began using incarceration as its cornerstone of
punishment for those who transgress the law, this method of discipline has been
fraught with problems. One of the most ubiquitous problems found within cor-
rectional institutions are the conditions inmates are forced to live in particularly,
when penal facilities are overcrowded. These conditions have led to extensive
litigation, compelling the judicial system to change. Although overall conditions
have improved, a perpetually increasing inmate population continues to plague
correctional systems as costs continue to rise. As state budgets have become
strained during the economic downturns, many states’ officials view less
punitive measures as possible solutions to the excessive costs of administering
punishment and overcrowded inmate populations. Due to facility overcrowding,
several states have actually been placed under federal court order to reduce their
inmate population in order to protect inmates’ constitutional rights. Although
this has resulted in a change of policies to help alleviate prison overcrowding,
there is little evidence these are anything more than short-term fixes to a
problem with no end in sight.
Keywords: prison overcrowding; inmate population; sentencing; corrections
policy
Introduction
In the United States, like many other affluent nations, law has become the blueprint
by which society is governed. The concept of punishment is typically connected to
or associated with the law, and usually follows as a consequence of non-compliance
with those directives. As such, the means by which a society administers
punishment is often thoroughly scrutinized to insure fairness and efficiency in
obtaining justice. Incarceration has been the dominant form of punishment in
American society for serious crimes (Ross, 2010; Verro, 2010). In fact, some would
argue that incarceration has been overused to such a degree that it constitutes an
inefficient use of resources.
In recent years, many states have become fiscally strained as the practice of
mass incarceration has come under increased criticism (Ekland-Olson, Barrick, &
Cohen, 1983; Harris, 1991; Lucken, 2011; Nagel 1977). As such, many of these
states are beginning to re-evaluate their use of incarceration in an attempt to better

Contemporary Issues in Clinical Psychology
Changes in Family Structure
Divorce
Remarriage: step-parent, step-children and step-sibling(s)
Death: parent or sibling
Birth: new baby or grandchild
Cultural Diversity
Discrimination
Oppression
Stereotyping
When someone seeks out a psychologist for assistance in overcoming issues related to a change in their familial structure or because of racial or ethnic discrimination, the psychologist should be experienced in the particular challenges this patient is facing. Clinical psychology has had to develop new ways to treat these patients as previous strategies were not as beneficial as they could be. Clinical psychologists also needed to evolve as psychology did so that they have the knowledge and experience to assist patients in these particular situations.

Changes to Family Structure
Separation
Divorce
As time continues to go on, the American family is not what is once was. Over the last 50 years there has been a dramatic rise in divorce; the highest it has ever been in the U.S. Divorce affects all types of marriages, whether it a heterosexual couples, blended couples, and even homosexual couples. “This marks a shift away from the ideal of the companion marriage popularized in the early 1920’s to self-aspiration, enhanced freedom, and egalitarian relationships” (Castelloe, 2011). Since the 1960’s the rate of divorce and separation has risen because of the fact that “society has become more inclusive and women more financially independent, resulting in increased tension in marriages between individualization and what psychoanalyst Erik Erickson described as “generativity,” a concern for the welfare of others” (Castelloe, 2011).

Population Most Affected
Not one race, ethnicity, culture.
High Conflict
Financially Unstable
Children of Divorce
Divorce is not exactly privy to one specific culture or ethnicity; many people of all races become separated or divorced. Since 1970, the rate of divorce, at 72%, has declined to 59% (Friedman, n.d.). Jeffrey Drew conducted a study in 2009 on couples who argued about finances. He concluded that couples who argued about finances more than once a week were more than 30% likely to get divorced than couples who argue about it only a few times a month. “According to Drew, couples who disagree about money less than once per month run a 30-40% increase in the risk of divorce” (Divorce Source, 1996). The rate of divorce ultimately increases as the arguments become more often, several times a week, daily; the risk increases 125% to 160% (Divorce Source, 1996). It is believed that children who come from a separated family or divorced family are going to be two times more likely to get divorced than a child whose parents remained together (Castelloe, 2011).

This course is being offered in a fully online format. This means that all of your course activities will
take place within the Blackboard course. There will not be any specific times when you will have to be
online with your instructor or your classmates during the semester. This gives you the flexibility of
doing your assignments at times during the day when you can be at a computer and work without

Contemporary theatre, both commercial and non-commercial, has .docx
Contemporary theatre, both commercial and non-commercial, has seen a huge increase in diversity -- diversity among playwrights and their plays, actors, directors, designers and theatre practitioners. Diverse artists have always shown themselves to be an integral part of theatre and theatre history, though in contemporary theatre they are sometimes referred to “artists of a diverse background” instead of just theatre artists.
These artists come from a selection of groups, cultures and categories including, but not limited by:
Gender-Specific (i.e. Female)
Native American
Hispanic
African-American
Asian-American
Gay and Lesbian
and others
This assignment requires you to...
select one person
(playwright, actor, designer, etc.) from the groups listed above
explore, prepare and discuss
his or her historical, social and cultural importance to what we call “diverse contemporary theatre” today (the focus here is on theatre not their impact to film, television or music)
Create your response, in the Assignment submission box below (not in the Comments field), as a journal or diary entry. This response will not be read by your fellow classmates. The journal should be 1-2 pages long, approximately 400-500 words minimum. Be careful of spelling, grammar, capitalization, and punctuation...proofread and edit your work as necessary. Please cite your sources if any are used, including any videos or links used. This assignment will be graded according to the Journal Rubric attached.

Contemporary prison overcrowding: short-term fixes to a
perpetual problem

Since the United States began using incarceration as its cornerstone of
punishment for those who transgress the law, this method of discipline has been
fraught with problems. One of the most ubiquitous problems found within cor-
rectional institutions are the conditions inmates are forced to live in particularly,
when penal facilities are overcrowded. These conditions have led to extensive
litigation, compelling the judicial system to change. Although overall conditions
have improved, a perpetually increasing inmate population continues to plague
correctional systems as costs continue to rise. As state budgets have become
strained during the economic downturns, many states’ officials view less
punitive measures as possible solutions to the excessive costs of administering
punishment and overcrowded inmate populations. Due to facility overcrowding,
several states have actually been placed under federal court order to reduce their
inmate population in order to protect inmates’ constitutional rights. Although
this has resulted in a change of policies to help alleviate prison overcrowding,
there is little evidence these are anything more than short-term fixes to a
problem with no end in sight.

Introduction
In the United States, like many other affluent nations, law has become the blueprint
by which society is governed. The concept of punishment is typically connected to
or associated with the law, and usually follows as a consequence of non-compliance
with those directives. As such, the means by which a society administers
punishment is often thoroughly scrutinized to insure fairness and efficiency in
obtaining justice. Incarceration has been the dominant form of punishment in
American society for serious crimes (Ross, 2010; Verro, 2010). In fact, some would
argue that incarceration has been overused to such a degree that it constitutes an
inefficient use of resources.
In recent years, many states have become fiscally strained as the practice of
mass incarceration has come under increased criticism (Ekland-Olson, Barrick, &
Cohen, 1983; Harris, 1991; Lucken, 2011; Nagel 1977). As such, many of these
states are beginning to re-evaluate their use of incarceration in an attempt to better

Contemporary Issues in Clinical Psychology
Changes in Family Structure
Divorce
Remarriage: step-parent, step-children and step-sibling(s)
Death: parent or sibling
Birth: new baby or grandchild
Cultural Diversity
Discrimination
Oppression
Stereotyping
When someone seeks out a psychologist for assistance in overcoming issues related to a change in their familial structure or because of racial or ethnic discrimination, the psychologist should be experienced in the particular challenges this patient is facing. Clinical psychology has had to develop new ways to treat these patients as previous strategies were not as beneficial as they could be. Clinical psychologists also needed to evolve as psychology did so that they have the knowledge and experience to assist patients in these particular situations.

Changes to Family Structure
Separation
Divorce
As time continues to go on, the American family is not what is once was. Over the last 50 years there has been a dramatic rise in divorce; the highest it has ever been in the U.S. Divorce affects all types of marriages, whether it a heterosexual couples, blended couples, and even homosexual couples. “This marks a shift away from the ideal of the companion marriage popularized in the early 1920’s to self-aspiration, enhanced freedom, and egalitarian relationships” (Castelloe, 2011). Since the 1960’s the rate of divorce and separation has risen because of the fact that “society has become more inclusive and women more financially independent, resulting in increased tension in marriages between individualization and what psychoanalyst Erik Erickson described as “generativity,” a concern for the welfare of others” (Castelloe, 2011).

Population Most Affected
Not one race, ethnicity, culture.
High Conflict
Financially Unstable
Children of Divorce
Divorce is not exactly privy to one specific culture or ethnicity; many people of all races become separated or divorced. Since 1970, the rate of divorce, at 72%, has declined to 59% (Friedman, n.d.). Jeffrey Drew conducted a study in 2009 on couples who argued about finances. He concluded that couples who argued about finances more than once a week were more than 30% likely to get divorced than couples who argue about it only a few times a month. “According to Drew, couples who disagree about money less than once per month run a 30-40% increase in the risk of divorce” (Divorce Source, 1996). The rate of divorce ultimately increases as the arguments become more often, several times a week, daily; the risk increases 125% to 160% (Divorce Source, 1996). It is believed that children who come from a separated family or divorced family are going to be two times more likely to get divorced than a child whose parents remained together (Castelloe, 2011).

How This Online Course Works
This course is being offered in a fully online format. This means that all of your course activities will
take place within the Blackboard course. There will not be any specific times when you will have to be
online with your instructor or your classmates during the semester. This gives you the flexibility of
doing your assignments at times during the day when you can be at a computer and work without
distractions. For some students this is early in the morning and for others late at night. An advantage
of online study is that your classroom is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Because of this schedule flexibility, time management is always a challenge for students in fully online
courses. Be sure you set a.

Consumer Brand Metrics Q3 2015 Eater Archetypes Brand u.docx
Consumer Brand Metrics Q3 2015
Eater Archetypes:
Brand usage and preferences by consumer segment
The restaurant industry has long relied on demographic factors to
identify and prioritize consumer groups. For example, many
brands currently obsess over attracting Millennials—some
without pausing to consider the variations among consumers
within this demographic cohort. In addition to life stages,
consumer attitudes about health, value, convenience and the
overall role of foodservice in their lives drive significant
differences in preferences and behavior.
With these distinctions in mind, we have updated the Consumer
Brand Metrics (CBM) survey with questions that allow us to
segment consumers into one of seven Eater Archetypes. Each
segment has a distinct psychographic profile, which is outlined in
our recent Consumer Foodservice Landscape. Accordingly, their
patronage of the segments and brands tracked in CBM varies.
This paper explores some differences we can discern after the
initial quarterly results, including the archetypes’ segment usage,
brand patronage and occasion dynamics. Examining CBM data by
Eater Archetype reveals nuances that complement a demographic
profile of a chain’s guests.

Consumer Brand Metrics Q3 2015
Segmenting consumers by psychographic factors, rather than
just demographic characteristics, can lead to a better
understanding of the consumers that matter to your brand and
how to appeal to them.
Key Takeaways
Busy Balancers and Functional Eaters drive usage across
restaurants and convenience stores. Full-service restaurant
(FSR) operators may also consider targeting Foodservice
Hobbyists and Affluent Socializers, as these archetypes
comprise more than a quarter of FSR patrons, on average.
How does foodser vice segment usage vary by archetype?
Driven by unique needs and motivations, Eater Archetypes
gravitate to a wide variety of brands. For example,
McDonald’s, Burger King and Whataburger each
disproportionately attract unique archetypes (Habitual
Matures, Bargain Hunters and Functional Eaters,
respectively).
Which chains do each archetype visit most frequently?
Archetypes that patronize the same restaurant may not use
the brand the same way. For example, usage varies by
daypart, with afternoon snacks skewing to Busy Balancers
and late-night meals driven by Functional Eaters. Archetypes
also diverge in their party composition, as visits with children
skew to Busy Balancers.
Which archetypes drive specific occasions?

Pollock and Snow "DEIA in the Scholarly Landscape, Session One: Setting Expec...National Information Standards Organization (NISO)
This presentation was provided by Steph Pollock of The American Psychological Association’s Journals Program, and Damita Snow, of The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), for the initial session of NISO's 2024 Training Series "DEIA in the Scholarly Landscape." Session One: 'Setting Expectations: a DEIA Primer,' was held June 6, 2024.A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis.
