This document proposes the creation of a Native American Task Force at Portland State University to increase Native American student success. The task force would have two main goals: 1) Increase Native American student enrollment to at least 5% of the student population and 2) Retain Native American students by establishing sustainable support systems that integrate culturally responsive practices. An advisory committee would provide guidance and include representatives from various Native American organizations. The task force acknowledges the history of colonization and aims to support revitalization of Indigenous ways of knowing and self-representation.

Postmodernist presentation feminism and religious fundamentalism
This document summarizes and compares the key beliefs and arguments of feminism and religious fundamentalism. For feminism, it lists beliefs in voting rights, property rights, equal pay, reproductive rights, and women's place in society and education. For religious fundamentalism, it discusses restrictions on voting, dress codes, education, marriage and divorce rules. It then lists important leaders for each movement, such as Elizabeth Cady Stanton for feminism and Sigmund Freud and Donald Winnicott for analyzing religious fundamentalism. References are also provided.
Diet, exercise, diversify
Diversity has historically been a problem in the US and higher education due to founding mono-culturalism, but moving forward requires cultural self-awareness, understanding differences, embracing variety of perspectives, and establishing diversity audits, plans, and personal action commitments to build a more inclusive future.
Teachers in action
Freedom Rides provides horse therapy for people with disabilities. The therapy involves grooming and tacking horses, which helps improve patients' balance, coordination, range of motion, and muscle relaxation. The document describes Freedom Rides' facilities and horses available for therapy and outlines how interacting with the horses can benefit patients both physically and mentally.
Microwomen
Microwomen's traditional roles and responsibilities have been altered by U.S. colonialism in Micronesia. While Micronesian men acknowledge women's traditional importance, male dominance remains visible. The document discusses how women's power is less evident in places like the Marshall Islands, but women enable men's public roles. In Chuuk, men engage in destructive behaviors while women maintain order. Palauan women work to preserve their culture and language despite conflicts with male leaders. The document argues women have adapted powerful roles under colonial systems but are often overlooked in issues like nuclear testing and development debates.
Edu 103 special education powerpoint 2
Black children are three times more likely than white children to be labeled mentally retarded according to a Harvard study. A Thomas B. Fordham Foundation study found that the whiter the school district and teaching staff, the higher the percentage of black and Hispanic children placed into special education programs. The key disparity is a failure to grasp cultural differences. Special education referrals are disproportionately high for minority students, and schools have financial incentives to broadly define disabilities and classify more students as such to receive additional state and federal funds.
Highlander mlb
Highlander was a school that used education to empower the poor in Appalachia and the South. Through sharing experiences, Highlander hoped to help people take control of their lives and solve their own problems. Many influential civil rights leaders like Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr. attended the school. However, Highlander faced constant attacks from white supremacists and the government due to its mission. Researchers can learn about Highlander through its records, oral histories from teachers and students, contemporary sources, and secondary sources from scholars. There is now a need for a deeper understanding of the civil rights movements and current activists working to continue that legacy.
Sexual Orientation
This document discusses definitions related to gender identity, gender expression, sex, and sexual orientation. It notes that gender identity refers to one's internal sense of gender, which may differ from their sex assigned at birth. Sexual orientation refers to romantic or sexual attraction toward other people and exists on a spectrum. The document emphasizes that major medical and mental health professional organizations do not consider homosexuality a mental disorder and that efforts to change sexual orientation through conversion or reparative therapy have been found ineffective and potentially harmful.

The document summarizes the Latino Migration Oral History Archive at UNC Chapel Hill, which documents the stories of Latin American immigration to North Carolina over three generations:
- The first generation arrived in the 1980s as farmers, scientists, builders and other occupations.
- Their children, who grew up in North Carolina in the 1990s, identified as Mexican-American, Guatemalan-American, etc. or simply American.
- Today, most Latinos in North Carolina are US-born citizens who call themselves North Carolinians.
The archive was established in 2007 and includes over 100 interviews that are added to annually, conducted by UNC students, faculty and others, celebrating the history and experiences
Three Lessons from our International Graduate Experience
This presentation discusses lessons learned from the international graduate experience of two students at the University of Oklahoma, Tulsa. It outlines the journey of preparing to leave home and family for a new country and culture, including facing a lack of support system and friends.

Amanda Jones: Networking for Youth Housing
This document discusses issues related to youth homelessness in Washington D.C. It provides estimates that the number of homeless youth in the U.S. varies widely from 1.35 million to over 2 million. Defining and tracking homeless youth is difficult as they tend to be transient and hide their status. Causes of youth homelessness include family instability, abuse, aging out of foster care or the juvenile justice system, and personal economic issues. Problems homeless youth face include interrupted education, poor financial outlook, assault, teen pregnancy and criminal activity. The document then provides data on the number of homeless youth in D.C. and discusses strategies cities can employ like prevention and outreach and lists some service providers in D.C.

The document summarizes several key events that contributed to growing tensions between the American colonies and Britain in the late 18th century, ultimately leading to the American Revolution. Britain imposed various taxes on the colonies through acts like the Stamp Act and Townshend Acts to raise revenue after costly wars. The colonists strongly objected to "taxation without representation" and responded with boycotts and protests. Further tensions arose over issues like the stationing of British troops in America and restrictions on colonial expansion beyond the Appalachians. Major flashpoints included the Boston Massacre and the Boston Tea Party, leading Britain to impose the Intolerable Acts, increasing colonial unity against British rule.
American Revolution selftest 1
The document discusses key events and concepts around the American Revolution, including:
- Britain believed that Parliament had legal authority over the colonies, while the colonists believed authority lay with their local assemblies.
- The colonists did not want to be taxed by Parliament since they lacked representation in that body. Patrick Henry inspired patriots to fight against "taxation without representation."
- The Continental Army fought for independence, led by General George Washington.
- The Declaration of Independence, written by Thomas Jefferson, declared independence from Britain on July 4, 1776 and stated that people, not kings, have the right to govern and that all men are created equal.
- The British were eventually defeated after
Korean War
The Korean Peninsula is located in East Asia between the Sea of Japan and the Yellow Sea. The Korean War was fought throughout this land from 1950-1953. The 38th Parallel originally divided North and South Korea, but North Korean forces crossed it on June 25, 1950 to invade the South and start the war. In September 1950, the Battle of Inchon was a major victory for UN forces led by General Douglas MacArthur that recaptured Seoul from the North Korean People's Army. During the war, the US Air Force bombed North Korean railroads and infrastructure to disrupt their logistics, while President Syngman Rhee's South Korean government assassinated around 10,000 to 100,000 suspected communist sympathizers.

This document discusses how unstructured outdoor play builds important skills in children. It argues that free play that allows kids to take risks helps develop resilience, problem-solving abilities, and social skills. The document cites research showing benefits like improved test scores, reduced bullying, and better psychological well-being from opportunities for independent outdoor activity. While some worry over safety, studies find little risk of injury and benefits to children's development from challenging play. The conclusion advocates for more unsupervised time for children to play outdoors.

Cultivating Cultural Competencies
We all have hidden biases (both favorable and unfavorable) that influence our behavior. How do we become aware of our biases? How can we show respect to the students/families from diverse cultures that we serve? Kazue McGregor teaches about Cultural Competency. Cultural competency is the ability to effectively deliver services to meet our client’s social, cultural, and sometimes linguistic needs and show families that you truly care.

Cultural Humility, Racial Equity, and the Protective Factors
This document summarizes a presentation about cultural humility, racial equity, and protective factors in parenting. It discusses how parenting is influenced by culture and context. While parenting is key to child outcomes, there is no single parenting standard - parenting must be understood within a cultural context. The presentation emphasizes developing cultural humility, which involves lifelong learning, self-reflection, and recognizing power imbalances. It also discusses implicit bias and structural racism as key constructs to understand differences in perceptions of racial injustice.
The Root
The document discusses the need to address racial inequities in education directly rather than avoiding the root causes. It presents statistics showing disparities between black and white students in areas like suspension rates, test scores, graduation rates, and poverty levels. The document argues that the purpose of education needs to shift from a focus on global competitiveness to providing students with skills to question assumptions and intervene to create a more just world. It advocates for teacher preparation, curriculum, and school design that incorporates social-emotional learning, culturally responsive teaching, historical literacy, and project-based learning to transform education outcomes for students.

The document discusses the importance of humility and cultural identity over self-esteem for academic success among American Indian students. It notes that traditional Native cultures valued humility and community over individualism. Research has found that having a strong cultural identity helps Native students overcome challenges and discrimination. Efforts to boost self-esteem through Western models have not improved academic performance and sometimes undermine Native cultural values like respect, discipline and interdependence.
Librarianship as a Cultural Profession
This document discusses defining and understanding multiculturalism for librarianship as a cultural profession. It begins by defining key terms like race, culture, ethnicity and explores how they differ. It then examines aspects of culture within dominant American norms versus various subcultures. It emphasizes that all institutions, including libraries, have a dominant culture as well as subcultures within. The document concludes by discussing the importance of cultural diversity and inclusion in libraries based on the American Library Association's Library Bill of Rights.

This document summarizes a journal article about creating culturally active classrooms. It discusses how teachers were asked to anonymously share stereotypes they were taught or believed about different racial groups. Many teachers realized they still held prejudices and stereotypes even after diversity training. The document advocates for teachers examining their own psychological mindsets and beliefs about race, as hidden stereotypes can negatively impact students and the classroom culture. It promotes teachers creating classrooms that value students' cultural identities and differences to improve academic success for all.

This document discusses concepts related to multicultural advising. It includes exercises that would help advisors understand diversity and cultural differences in advising. It also provides models of racial/cultural identity development and questions for advisors to reflect on their own cultural competence when working with students from diverse backgrounds. Key factors that can impact the success of minority students are identified as well as the importance of advising in retention.
Cultural Safety and Racism
The document discusses cultural safety and racism in Australia. It notes that over 90% of Aboriginal Australians report experiencing racism in their personal or professional lives. It emphasizes that cultural awareness alone is not sufficient, and cultural safety requires self-reflection to challenge one's own biases and understand how racism operates systematically. It questions the level of commitment by universities and other institutions to concrete targets and accountability measures to reduce racism experienced by Indigenous Australians.
Spring Semester Research for Evidence-Based Nursing Practice (PSYN-300-001)
This document provides an overview of considerations for conducting respectful research with Indigenous communities. It emphasizes the importance of the four R's - Respect, Relevance, Reciprocity and Responsibility. Researchers should work collaboratively with Elders, knowledge keepers and community members. Principles like Ownership, Control, Access and Possession (OCAP) are important to discuss before beginning research. Storytelling approaches and two-eyed seeing can help bring both Western and Indigenous ways of knowing together. Cultural competence, awareness of privilege, and being willing to feel uncomfortable are also discussed as part of being an ally in research.
Cultural Safety and Racism
The document discusses a workshop on cultural safety, racism, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health. It addresses several topics:
- Definitions of racism and how it can operate subtly within institutions.
- Experiences of racism reported by Indigenous Australians, including high percentages reporting racism in their personal and professional lives.
- Health inequities and poorer health outcomes experienced by Indigenous Australians, which are linked to experiences of racism.
- The importance of cultural safety training beyond just cultural awareness, and moving from equality to equity and liberation for Indigenous people.
- Signposts provided by regulatory bodies for cultural safety in nursing and midwifery.

The document discusses cultural reproduction and introduces a study by Nilchaikovit et al. that analyzes the differences in Asian and American notions of self, communication, and professional relationships. It summarizes the key findings of the Nilchaikovit study, which found that Asians view the self as interdependent and hierarchical while Americans see it as independent and egalitarian. The relationship between professionals and clients is also treated differently across cultures.

The document discusses the results of a study on the impact of COVID-19 lockdowns on air pollution. Researchers found that lockdowns led to significant short-term reductions in nitrogen dioxide and fine particulate matter pollution globally as transportation and industrial activities declined substantially. However, the document notes that the improvements in air quality were temporary and pollution levels rose back to pre-pandemic levels as restrictions eased and activity increased again.

The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
The open university
Portland State University has strengths in attracting talented faculty and diverse students due to its location, but also has weaknesses such as an emerging brand, bifurcated faculty, and uneven practices across departments. The document proposes embracing changes in higher education by allowing students to design affordable, flexible educations combining online and in-person learning. This could boost enrollment and revenues if lower-cost courses subsidize more intensive ones, outdated costs are cut, and programs lacking strength are reduced while protecting academic freedom.

The document outlines a community outreach project focused on African American history, health, and heritage. It discusses designing research on these topics, interviewing community members to gather historical memories, identifying health issues, and documenting heritage sites. The goals are to preserve historical memory, engage the community, facilitate collaboration between researchers and the community, determine sustainable solutions for health and heritage challenges, train students in field research, bring education to the community, and address myths about technology.
Mapping and matching_final_(1)[1]
This document discusses mapping community needs for social workers in Oregon with a statewide online needs assessment survey. It outlines steps to analyze the survey data using GIS software to identify service gaps. Based on the results, the goal is to design an online Bachelor of Arts in Social Work program to expand access to rural and tribal communities statewide. This would build on an existing online Master of Social Work program and partnerships with community colleges. The needs assessment aims to match workforce demands with student opportunities across Oregon.
Re think.psu.presentation.jan.2013[1]
This document outlines a proposal to build diversity and graduate enrollments at PSU by developing new global partnerships. It proposes creating a pilot program with institutions in India to bring top STEM PhD scholars to PSU for 1-2 years of study. The goals are to increase global enrollment, enhance program quality through research collaborations with industry partners, connect with top overseas institutions, and expand South Asian enrollment across disciplines. Key steps include identifying academic programs, research partners in South Asia, industry partners, and developing an online portal for applications and program promotion. Success would transform PSU into a globally networked model with growing international enrollment and new faculty-industry research partnerships across disciplines.

The document proposes the Public Service Gateway Initiative to expand Portland State University's offerings and enrollment related to public service. It would create a civic leadership minor and potential BA/BS in public service, expand the existing Executive Masters in Public Administration to online, and offer a graduate certificate in nonprofit and public management. This is estimated to generate over 800 additional student credit hours annually and $1 million in additional tuition revenue. The initiative aims to connect to key markets, expand existing curricular strengths in public service, streamline access for working professionals, and serve students interested in public service careers.

The document discusses opportunities for partnership between Portland State University and Cuba, focusing on areas like urban development, transportation alternatives, housing investment, and economic alternatives to tourism in Cuba. It highlights Cuba's strengths like a well-educated population, strategic location, strong community values, and universal healthcare system, as well as areas where Cuba serves as a model like social sustainability through investing in people, organic urban agriculture, and emerging cooperatives and small businesses.
Power point for sysposium 97-2003
The document proposes strategies for improving an existing Master of Environmental Management (MEM) degree program at the Environmental Science and Management Department. It suggests converting core MEM courses to online formats using existing online courses and MOOCs, reducing lectures and increasing mentoring and internship opportunities. Additionally, it proposes that completing the MEM requirements along with several "Plus Courses" in areas like project management and communications could result in a Professional Science Masters (PSM) degree. The benefits would include more flexible online options for students, a shift to more mentoring than lecturing for faculty, increased graduate enrollment and community outreach for the department and university.
