Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S Army captain and recruiting commander Kevin Callahan is stabbed to death, his body is found in a guardhouse at Hudson Technical University, a small private engineering school located in College Heights, a decayed community in New York's Hudson River Valley. The message left on Callahan's shirt reads, "No more lies." The news media and pro-military and anti-war activists believe the murder was committed in opposition to unethical army recruiting. Angered by the biased media coverage and bothered by the army's deference to the civilian investigators in the Orange County sheriff's office, Callahan's uncle, Philadelphia area urban planner Jack Donnelly, wants to conduct his own investigation. He is not afraid to step on toes in College Heights, a community where town-gown relations have reached their worst. Fearing Donnelly's investigation will further embarrass the university, but, desperately needing his help to save her school, Hudson Tech president Martina Tiernan asks him to become her special assistant for campus planning. While Jack believes that Tiernan is trying to buy his silence, he reluctantly comes aboard. He learns that the murder is the lynchpin to a larger scheme that could close Hudson Tech's doors for good.

Book Synopsis The Development of the Zimbabwe National Defense College, 2004-2012 by : Max John Chinyanganya
Download or read book The Development of the Zimbabwe National Defense College, 2004-2012 written by Max John Chinyanganya and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2024-01-05 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book interrogates the often controversial civil-military relations debate in Zimbabwe. The study argues that, theoretically, Civil-Military Relations (CMR) describes the relationship between civil society as a whole and the military organization or organizations established to protect it. More narrowly, it describes the relationship between the civil authority of a given society and its military institutions. Studies of civil-military relations often rest on a normative assumption that civilian control of the military is preferable to military control of the state. This text demonstrates the complexity of relationship between military institutions and civic societies particularly in developing countries. The methodology employed here is a mixture of internationally recognised scholarly works supplemented by extensive interviews arising from international benchmarking with similar institutions worldwide. This coherent and accessible book brings the history of civil military relations up to date, exploring a variety of perspectives and newly emerging practices in developing countries whose experience in this field is relatively new in both theory and practice.

Book Synopsis Western Kentucky University by : Lowell H. Harrison
Download or read book Western Kentucky University written by Lowell H. Harrison and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2014-10-17 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most Hilltoppers believe that Western Kentucky University is unique. They take pride in its lovely campus, its friendly spirit, the loyalty of its alumni, and its academic and athletic achievements. But Western's development also illustrates a major trend in American higher education during the past century. Scores of other institutions have followed the Western pattern, growing from private normal school to state normal school, to teachers college, to general college, finally emerging as an important state university. Historian Lowell Harrison traces the Western story from the school's origin in 1875 to the January 1986 election of its seventh president. For much of its history, Western has been led by paternalistic presidents whose major battles have been with other state schools and parsimonious legislatures. In recent years the presidents have been challenged by students and faculty who have demanded more active roles in university governance, and by a Board of Regents and the Council on Higher Education, which have raised challenging new issues. Harrison's account of the institution's development is laced with anecdotes and vignettes of some of the school's interesting personalities: President Henry Hardin Cherry, whose chapel talks convinced countless students that "the Spirit Makes the Master"; "Uncle Ed" Diddle, whose flying towel and winning teams earned national basketball fame; "Daddy" Bur-ton who could catch flies while lecturing; Miss Gabie Robertson, who held students into the next class period; the lone Japanese student who was on campus during World War II. Harrison also recalls steamboat excursions, the Great Depression and the Second World War, the astounding boom in enrollment and buildings in the 1960s, the period of student unrest, and the numerous fiscal crises that have beset the school. This is the story of an institution proud of its past and seeking to chart its course into the twenty-first century.
Book Synopsis The College on the Hill by : Alexander Ross
Download or read book The College on the Hill written by Alexander Ross and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 1999-09-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How has the Ontario Agricultural College contributed to Canadian education? What role has the college played in the development of agriculture since it was founded in 1874? This history of Canada’s oldest agricultural college revolves around these two questions. It shows that the college’s mandate has changed in its attempt to serve both education and agriculture. The Ontario Agricultural College was established to enshrine science in farming, but it also became the testing and extension arm of the provincial ministry of agriculture. Direct government control for ninety years provided financial resources not enjoyed by other post-secondary schools, but the results sometimes proved of greater benefit to agriculture than to education or science. Swept into the University of Guelph when it was created in 1964, the college rethought its role. It emerged as a centre for advanced scientific inquiry, for global agricultural programs, and for understanding rural societies. The controversies surrounding these changes and the evolving nature of agriculture and science are brought out fully in this account of the past century and a quarter.
