The presentation provides universities recommendations to better support these experiences and play a larger role in developing global citizens.
Organizational profile power point wk 7Ellen White
Both Lake Elementary and Galena Park Middle School needed to change their culture and structures to improve student performance under a new state mandate. Both schools underwent a change to a Professional Learning Community (PLC) model, moving away from a top-down structure and empowering teachers through collaborative teams. This change process involved overcoming resistance from staff through effective communication of a new vision and provision of needed resources. While both schools made progress in implementing these changes, sustaining them long-term presents ongoing challenges, such as leadership and policy changes, that will require continued effort through practices like celebrating successes, maintaining consistency, and reinforcing their shared vision.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and

Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

This volume is dedicated to Dr. David Burks by all the men and women who
have been blessed to work with him in this one small facet of his exemplary
time as president of Harding University.

“I have a great love for architecture,” [Dr. Burks]
said. “That’s always been a secret ambition of
mine.” As president, he became more involved
with the design and building aspect of the
university than some would have expected.Burks
said he worked with the Harding University
architect, Mike Steelman, who had done most of
the work on Harding’s campus since Burks had
been president. Burks spent a lot of time with
Steelman to ensure that he had an input in terms
of what they attempted to do with new building
projects and renovations.“It has been a favorite
part of my job,” Burks said.

5. Dr. Burks has a drafting table in the back room. He will get the plans and
sketch around on them. He is into it. He has this architect stuff figured out.
He knows a lot about it now and has a great vision for things, and that’s what
he has done with all the new construction.

Transitions are an integral component of life,but often
we do not notice the change going on around us until
it is dramatically brought to our attention. In 1987,
we could not help but think about the passage of time
and the necessity of change when a new leader for
Harding University came noticeably to the forefront.
Perhaps we wondered what this would mean to the
school we had come to love; we weren’t sure what
the future held.
How true these words would
prove to be...

11. From the very beginning of his tenure as president, it was apparent to everyone who worked closely
with Dr. Burks that he had a keen appreciation for the critical role that facilities could, and should play
in supporting Harding’s mission. He recognized that in many respects, the buildings and infrastructure
that define the Harding campus represent visible and tangible evidence of her commitment to
excellence in all facets of the educational process. While great educational programs are not dependent
on facilities, there is a perception, and often an expectation, that excellence in instruction should
be supported by facilities of the highest quality. Likewise, buildings alone cannot create community.
However, if they are well planned, designed and constructed, buildings can serve as infrastructure to
both support and encourage activities which help develop relationships. It is those relationships that
ultimately result in the quality of life for which Harding is known.
Dr. Burks also recognized that no one building or even a building program could achieve the goal of
a campus that would not only provide a place for everyone who desired to attend Harding, but also
assure that their educational experience responded effectively to the demands of a rapidly changing
world and expanding opportunities. Ongoing strategic planning, facilities master planning and dedication
to continuous improvement will always be necessary to provide for the growth and support the
innovation that is expected at institutions that are truly pursuing excellence.
The role that campus facilities have played in support of Harding’s mission is a direct result of the
emphasis Dr. Burks has placed on “Developing Christian Servants”. This focus on preserving Harding’s
role as a Christian university is illustrated by a commitment to keep daily attendance in Chapel as a
priority for all students in spite of difficult logistics due to increasing enrolment. In addition, because
Harding is committed to remaining a residential campus, strong relationships are forged, not just among
students, but also between students, administration, faculty and staff. The powerful impact of the
community created by mandatory on-campus housing and the influence this spiritual environment has
on students has always been a key component of the Harding experience. However, the commitment
to remain a residential campus requires not only that housing options are available in ever increasing
numbers to accommodate growth, but that those options are both desirable and affordable.

12. “My favorite spot on campus would without a
doubt be the McInteer fountain. I helped design
that fountain. Its design is based on a baptistry
in Ephesus. I took pictures of that place in
Ephesus and gave them to Mike Steelman. The
steps that go down into the fountain—where
a lot of people have been baptized over the
years—have exactly the same dimensions as
the baptistry in Ephesus. I love that point on
campus because of that historical significance
back to when people were baptized in Ephesus.”

27. Because he has always recognized and valued the strong foundation established by his three
predecessors, Dr. Burks has maintained a commitment to honor that heritage through preservation
where appropriate, improvement where necessary and a commitment to new construction that
complements rather than contrasts with the existing campus fabric. A healthy respect for the past
has guided the renovations, additions and even the new construction during his presidency, evidenced
by sympathetic designs, continuity of materials, and details which recall the existing architecture
without copying it.
While guiding Harding through an unprecedented period of growth and development, Dr. Burks has
exhibited qualities unique among great leaders of great institutions. His ability to inspire others,
bring together people with different skill sets, draw on their strengths, build consensus and effectively
communicate the resulting vision to the entire community has allowed Harding to capitalize on
her heritage and build for the future. Even great opportunities and great plans would never have
resulted in the transformation the Harding campus has witnessed over the past quarter century
without the exceeding generosity of many individuals, families and foundations. Dr. Burks’ ability to
relate to those partners, convey to them the significance of what was at stake and inspire them with
the opportunities at hand cannot be overemphasized.
A master of bringing out the best in people, Dr. Burks has the ability to relate to people from every
facet of the university community. From those who are able to fund major projects, to the faculty
and students who so desperately need them, from the designers, to the constructors and everyone
involved, his hands-on approach combined with his gift of sharing a vision and empowering others to
carry it out has resulted in partnership and teamwork time after time on project after project.
The relationship between Harding and the city of Searcy is truly a “town and gown” partnership, with
cooperation and respect guiding the relationship. Few universities enjoy as productive a relationship
with their host cities as Harding does with Searcy, due in no small part to the efforts of Dr. Burks to
reach out to the community, engage her leaders and assure that the Harding campus is a place that is
both welcoming and supportive.

37. There can be no doubt that Harding will be richly blessed in the future by the legacy established
during the presidency of Dr. David Burks, a heritage of character, integrity, dedication, teamwork,
excellence, efficiency and value. Because construction projects at Harding are funded almost entirely
with donations, the expectation to provide the highest quality product at the best possible value
has always been a clear directive from Dr. Burks. His commitment to stewardship demands no
less. These principles are emphasized throughout the design and construction process and clearly
communicated to everyone involved.
Always focused on the students, Dr. Burks has made it a priority that every project be carefully
crafted to build faith, promote learning and provide a better quality of living for the young
men and women who choose to pursue their life goals at Harding. An emphasis on facilities and
amenities which directly benefit the student community prevails, evidenced by extensive intramural
facilities, emphasis on continually improving student housing options, student dining facilities, attention
to the campus landscape and a decision to design prime building spaces for student use.
Finally, the legacy of foresight and carefully considered preparation by Dr. Burks will result in
many as-yet unrecognized benefits for the future of Harding’s University. Strategic expansion of
the campus land area during his tenure will provide room for growth that would otherwise be
increasingly difficult to achieve as time passes and land values escalate. Indeed, the benefits of this
philosophy are already being seen as the campus grows westward.
Dr. Burks has always been quick to be sure that others receive recognition for their contributions
to each project, even while minimizing his own pivotal role. His insistence that Harding should
never settle for less than the very best value for every resource devoted to a building project has
required diligence and hard work on the part of everyone involved, but that philosophy has always
been clearly supported by his own rigid work ethic and example. The result of working on a building
project at Harding under Dr. Burks leadership has always resulted in a high level of satisfaction for
everyone involved, together with a greater appreciation for what true teamwork and cooperation can
accomplish.
