The Pandemic and Social Change: Ageism and Intersectional DisparitiesBonner Foundation
A presentation for the University of Pennsylvania Higher Education Leadership Conference in January 2022. This presentation explores the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on higher education through a lens of ageism, ethnicity, race, gender, and other aspects of social identity and justice. Developed based on research and experience by Carol Kalin (University of Pennsylvania), Jamille Nagtalon-Ramos (Rutgers University) and Ariane Hoy (Bonner Foundation).
Workshop Description from Program: The COVID 19 pandemic has exacerbated longstanding disparities in many aspects of American life—from healthcare to higher education.The presenters in this session were co-authors, along with Susan Klusmeier (C15), of a paper on ageism assigned in Dr. Shaun Harper’s last class on diversity, equity, and inclusion at Penn GSE. Entitled “Consider Gina:A Case of Intersectionality of Age, Gender, and Ethnicity in Higher Education,” the paper focused on the problems younger minoritized professionals encounter as they advance in their careers. A literature review revealed that ageism differs from other aspects of identity in that it can be said to transcend culture. During the pandemic, notably, vaccines and other medical interventions were explicitly rationed based on chronological age. In higher education, statistics reflect steep declines in community college attendance, important to social mobility for lower-income students, while at the other end of the spectrum, returns on the large endowments of elite schools are breaking all previous records.After a summary of the paper and some brief comments on ageism and long-term disability in higher education, we offer an update on social justice work at colleges and universities as well as an overview of the pandemic’s impact on academic medicine.

Students saw themselves as part of improving their community through their work. The partnership aims to continue expanding qualification opportunities in Kaitaia to support more students gaining tertiary education in their rohe.
The Teaching Profession - Linkages & Networking with OrganizationsJad Justalero
The document discusses different types of linkages and networks that can exist between organizations and institutions. It defines the key difference between linkages and networks, with networks requiring a stronger commitment between partner organizations that usually share common goals and beneficiaries. Examples provided include networks of universities established for activities like cross-enrollment of students in needed subjects or joint research projects. Consortia among institutions are also discussed as a type of network that binds organizations together towards a shared objective.

Gaines Tidwell surveyed rock samples near his uncle's house on a peninsula surrounded by water on three sides. The samples showed a variety of textures, sizes, lusters, grain sizes, hardnesses, and colors. However, determining the ages of the samples was difficult since they were surface samples that had likely been artificially placed. Tidwell identified five samples, including peridotite, limestone, slate, conglomerate, and an unknown rock that may be igneous. The area is subject to erosion from the surrounding water, with the shoreline having receded significantly in the last 10 years.
Only 0.024% of the Earth's water is available as liquid freshwater for human use. Nearly 1 billion people lack access to safe drinking water and 2.5 billion do not have adequate sanitation, resulting in 1.4 million child deaths per year from water-borne diseases. Water scarcity is a growing global problem exacerbated by pollution, population growth, and climate change.

This document summarizes a research project that aimed to determine if explicitly teaching test-taking skills would improve students' abilities on tests. The researchers taught two test-taking strategies - circling key words and rephrasing test questions - to students in various classes over 3-4 weeks. Pre- and post-tests were administered to measure effects. While some individual classes saw significant effects, the overall results across all 256 students were not significant, showing mixed evidence on whether the strategies improved performance or whether students used the strategies taught. The researchers conclude more time and a larger sample size are needed to better evaluate the impacts.

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
diverse human activities.
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
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can

Each year, about 20 leaders from across Asia — trustees,
presidents, vice presidents, deans and other key
administrators — take part in the four-day program.
Often these individuals are new to their leadership roles,
so they appreciate the chance to absorb new information
and build a network with their peers. In recent years,
specialized training sessions have been added to the
agenda, to introduce practical skills in quality assessment,
fundraising and other issues of increasing importance to
sustaining higher education institutions.

Developing Outstanding Educators
Our partner institutions are dedicated to preparing
undergraduate students for careers in a rapidly changing
world. This requires faculty with the knowledge to
introduce students to the core content of a field of
study and the tools to promote critical thinking. The
United Board’s Regional Faculty Scholars Program helps
develop and retain outstanding educators by offering
young faculty members the opportunity to pursue
advanced degrees.
United Board partners take the lead in recruiting
young faculty and overseeing their programs of study.
Host universities in Australia, China, India, Indonesia,

campuses to Regional Faculty Scholars, offering them
