Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
This paper has three objectives designed to support the work of practice systems, scholars, and policy makers. First, it provides a conceptual model that supports a multidisciplinary, multicultural, collaborative university-community research, service, and teaching group that is consistent with the philosophy, mission, and objectives of land grant institutions and community systems. Second, it describes how the Latino Research Initiative implemented this collaborative model to support the goals of the university and the community to enhance the lives of Latinos in Lincoln, Nebraska. Finally, this paper discusses how this collaborative model can be used or adapted by university and community professionals …
The Use Of An Ethnic Food Frequency Questionnaire Among Hispanic Women, Susan Jordan
The Use Of An Ethnic Food Frequency Questionnaire Among Hispanic Women, Susan Jordan
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
The objective of this study was to determine if an Ethnic Food Frequency questionnaire more accurately reflected food intake among immigrant Hispanic women compared to US-born Hispanic women. Participants in the study consisted of 30 immigrant and 25 US-born Hispanic low-income women living in the Grand Island, Nebraska, area. A traditional food frequency questionnaire used by the Nebraska Women, Infants, and Children's (WIC) Special Supplemental Food program and a modified questionnaire containing ethnic foods were administered to the women. The immigrant group consumed more of the traditional Hispanic foods than did the US-born group. A traditional food frequency questionnaire that …
Attitudes Of Selected Latino Oldtimers Toward Newcomers: A Photo Elicitation Study, D. A. Lopez
Attitudes Of Selected Latino Oldtimers Toward Newcomers: A Photo Elicitation Study, D. A. Lopez
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
The Latino population in the Midwest has been increasing rapidly. Latinos have been in Omaha, Nebraska, since the late 1800s. However, the development of modern meatpacking plants and a low unemployment rate have resulted in a large population of "newcomers" to the city. Latino "oldtimers" differ from newcomers in their experiences. I examine, through photo elicitation, attitudes of a selected population of Latino oldtimers toward newcomers as contextualized through segmented assimilation. Results indicate oldtimers in this sample have some misgivings about newcomers. Furthermore, I argue that downward assimilation of Latino newcomers is likely given the conditions to which they migrate.
Review Of The Sacred World Of The Penitentes By Alberto Lopez Pulido, Gustavo Paz
Review Of The Sacred World Of The Penitentes By Alberto Lopez Pulido, Gustavo Paz
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
In The Sacred World of the Penitentes, Alberto Lopez Pulido addresses popular religion in the southwestern United States from an innovative point of view. By concentrating on the story of the penitentes as told by actual participants in the religious brotherhood, he is able to deliver an interpretation that transcends the official history as well as popular beliefs held since the nineteenth century. Lopez Pulido also breaks away from common views on penitentes by focusing more on the beliefs (the sacred) and less on the ritual components of the brotherhood.
The penitentes, a Catholic brotherhood (with possible Franciscan origins) …
Review Of The Contested Homeland: A Chicano History Of New Mexico Edited By Erlinda Gonzales-Berry And David R. Maciel, Armando C. Alonzo
Review Of The Contested Homeland: A Chicano History Of New Mexico Edited By Erlinda Gonzales-Berry And David R. Maciel, Armando C. Alonzo
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
The goal of this anthology, consisting of ten essays on the history of the Nuevomexicano experience from the short Mexican period to the post-Chicano movement era of the 1960s and 1970s, is to present a Chicano perspective on the Nuevomexicano historical experience. Divided into two parts, the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the collection's essays deal primarily with twentieth-century themes, a reasonable approach given the brevity of the Mexican era and the much longer period after the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, which initiated the era of United States rule. The dominant theme affirms that Nuevomexicanos have always contested their rights to …
Review Of En Aquel Entonces: Readings In Mexican-American History Edited By Manuel G. Gonzales And Cynthia M. Gonzales, Jorge Iber
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
In their introduction editors Manuel G. and Cynthia M. Gonzales claim their task is to examine the diversity and complexity of "Chicano history" from the sixteenth through the twenty-first centuries. This is an ambitious undertaking, and they acknowledge that "the story is too varied and complex to be incorporated under a single rubric" (xi). Still, the effort is certainly worthwhile and in this case fairly effective.
The sheer volume of chronologically arranged articles (thirty-one) is impressive, as is the roster of contributors. Topics such as Tejano life in Texas, land grant adjudication, labor unrest in California, beet workers on the …
Review Of Hispanic/Latino Identity: A Philosophical Perspective By Jorge J. E. Gracia, Alberta Lopez Pulido
Review Of Hispanic/Latino Identity: A Philosophical Perspective By Jorge J. E. Gracia, Alberta Lopez Pulido
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
As a result of major demographic changes in the Hispanic community of the United States and throughout the world, Jorge Gracia argues that the time has come for Hispanics to begin a philosophical process of reflection about who they are as individuals and as members of the larger global population. In his estimation, the outcomes of this reflection will affect us all and determine the future of humanity.
At the core of his philosophical perspective is Gracia's "theory of historical relevance," which perceives and interprets Hispanic/Latino identity as a family tied by changing historical relations that in turn generate particular …

Introduction: Latinos On The Great Plains: An Overview, Refugio Rochin
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
I am pleased to join co-editors Gus Carlo and Miguel Carranza in this special issue of Great Plains Research, focusing on the "Latino Experience on the Great Plains." As an invited contributor to this issue, I have decided to write from my personal knowledge and experiences as the former director of the Julian Samora Research Institute at Michigan State University from July 1994 through July 1998. It was during this time that I worked closely with a number of midwestern scholars to promote the most extensive studies and reports on Latinos of the heartland, including the Great Plains. At …

Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
The preamble to The Convention on the Rights of the Child, "recalls the basic principles of the United Nations and specific provisions of certain relevant human rights treaties and proclamations; reaffirms the fact that children, because of their vulnerability, need special care and protection; and places special emphasis on the primary caring and protective responsibilities of the family, the need for legal and other protection of the child before and after birth, the importance of respect for the cultural values of the child's community, and the vital role of international cooperation in achieving the realization of children's rights" (UNICEF 2001). …
Review Of Women And Nature: Saving The "Wild" West By Glenda Riley, Diane Glancy
Review Of Women And Nature: Saving The "Wild" West By Glenda Riley, Diane Glancy
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
Women and Nature begins with the statement that generations of women have revered nature and explored their relationships with it. Why have they been overlooked? The book is not so much the story of nature and the women in it, but a listing of particular women and their efforts in writing, drawing, and promoting environmental awareness, preservation, and activism.
Many have been aware of the strong ties among women, animals, and nature. As one pamphlet states: "Nature is no mere mechanism, inanimate and insensible. But nature is more like women, whose real law is sympathy." Thus, the book sets out …
Review Of Groundwater Management In The West By Jeffrey S. Ashley And Zachary A. Smith, David E. Kromm
Review Of Groundwater Management In The West By Jeffrey S. Ashley And Zachary A. Smith, David E. Kromm
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
Groundwater is becoming an increasingly important water source throughout the United States, especially in the West where surface supplies are limited and usually over-committed. An assessment of groundwater in the West is needed, and this book fills an important gap in providing useful information in a well-organized and accessible fashion.
Ashley and Smith discuss the West, incorporating nineteen states, within four subregions: Pacific Coast, Rocky Mountains, Great Plains, and the Southwest. Each state is addressed in an individual chapter observing the same format: after a brief introduction, the authors describe the state's physical characteristics and demographics, the laws, politics, and …
Review Of Fresh Water By E. C. Pielou, John Opie
Review Of Fresh Water By E. C. Pielou, John Opie
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
Rarely is a book on water both technical and lucid. E. C. Pielou has the scientist's determination to get the lingo right and the writer's determination to bring coherence to complexity. This is a contemporary natural history of fresh water, as the author makes clear on the opening page: "The most noteworthy characteristic of any small body of fresh water-be it a pond, a stream, an icicle, or a rain cloud-is its impermanence"
There is also an urgency to the book. Since fresh water is only about 3 percent of the world's entire water supply, the author notes that "a …
Review Of Terrestrial Ecoregions Of North America: A Conservation Assessment By Taylor H. Ricketts And Eric Dinerstein, O. W. Archibold
Review Of Terrestrial Ecoregions Of North America: A Conservation Assessment By Taylor H. Ricketts And Eric Dinerstein, O. W. Archibold
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
Terrestrial Ecoregions of North America provides a comprehensive assessment of the status of biodiversity and conservation within the United States and Canada. Part of a global program conducted by the World Wildlife Fund, it is essentially a reference work offering baseline data for conservation planning and restoration. The book emphasises the precarious condition of many natural areas in North America, at the same time illustrating the great diversity that still exists in some areas and stressing the sense of urgency required to ensure the preservation of viable plant and animal populations in their natural habitats. It is not a textbook …
Review Of Environmental Management On North America's Borders Edited By Richard Kiy And John D. Wirth, J. Gordon Nelson
Review Of Environmental Management On North America's Borders Edited By Richard Kiy And John D. Wirth, J. Gordon Nelson
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
This timely book is produced by the North American Institute, which is devoted to dealing with issues in North America through tri-national collaboration. Originating at a meeting of some of its contributors in New Mexico in 1995 and completed in a year or so, this fairly current volume is most useful in addressing environmental challenges across North America's borders since NAFTA's adoption, including water and air pollution which interact on a continental and indeed a global scale.
Review Of Cutting Into The Meatpacking Line: Workers And Change In The Rural Midwest By Deborah Fink, Philip Garcia
Review Of Cutting Into The Meatpacking Line: Workers And Change In The Rural Midwest By Deborah Fink, Philip Garcia
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
This self-proclaimed anthropological and historical study about Midwest wage earners confronts many contemporary issues about the workplace in its 201 pages of text and photographs. Globalization, plant closings, deregulation, immigrant workers, repetitive motion disorders, sexual harassment, and employee drug testing are just some of the topics covered. The author gathered first-hand data during five months of employment at a large pork processing plant outside Des Moines, Iowa; she augmented her observations with extant information on Iowa's rural economy for the twentieth century, especially tabulations from the US Census and reports from local newspapers.
The book's main interest is the effect …
Review Of Encyclopedia Of The Mexican American Civil Rights Movement By Matt S. Meier And Margo Gutierrez, Ralph Vigil
Review Of Encyclopedia Of The Mexican American Civil Rights Movement By Matt S. Meier And Margo Gutierrez, Ralph Vigil
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
This informative, well-written book on the Mexican American civil rights movement is a valuable reference tool. Entries include biographical sketches of leaders, histories of organizations, legal cases, legislation, court decisions, important historical events, and topics ranging from the myth of Aztlan to the Zoot Suit Riots of 1943, followed by suggestions for further reading. A chronology of the Mexican American civil rights struggle and a detailed index add to the value of the work.
The volume's contribution to knowledge of Mexican Americans on the Great Plains is limited, but the entry discussing the Midwest (150-51) gives basic information about migration …

Lower Columbia College Enrollment Forecast, 2000 – 2010, Barry Edmonston, Risa Proehl
Publications, Reports and Presentations
This report provides a student enrollment forecast, including background demographic information and analysis, for Lower Columbia College (LCC). The report considers several factors that are likely to affect the College’s enrollment between 2000 and 2010, including and the geographical areas within and surrounding the service district (Cowlitz and Wahkiakum Counties, the cities of Longview, Kelso, Woodland and others in the vicinity). Five different scenarios of population, housing, and enrollment participation changes were developed to demonstrate their effects on enrollments. Three scenarios rely on different rates of housing and population growth, and two depend on changes of enrollment participation in the …

Adolescent Violent Victimization And Offending: Assessing The Extent Of The Link, Wendy C. Regoeczi
Adolescent Violent Victimization And Offending: Assessing The Extent Of The Link, Wendy C. Regoeczi
Sociology & Criminology Faculty Publications
This article discusses the association between adolescent violent victimization and offending. A key issue in understanding both criminal offending and victimization concerns victim-offender relationships. Research on crime, particularly violent offenses, requires examining the interpersonal relationships which exist among victims and offenders. Nevertheless, those studies which disaggregate crime rates by victim-offender relationships have essentially confined their analyses to adults. This coincides with a more general trend in criminological research on adolescents to confine analyses to offending behavior. Consequently, there is a dearth research on adolescents and youth victims, particularly with respect to the individuals most likely to offend against them. Within …
Private Long-Term Care Insurance And The Asset Protection Motive, Jennifer M. Mellor
Private Long-Term Care Insurance And The Asset Protection Motive, Jennifer M. Mellor
Arts & Sciences Articles
This research examined the role of assets in the decision to purchase insurance for long-term care using survey data from the Asset and Health Dynamics Among the Oldest Old (AHEAD) study. Previous research suggests that assets matter, but the size and direction of the effect varies. An important issue regarding the role of assets has not been explored adequately—whether the effect of assets differs between less wealthy and very wealthy individuals. A methodology to control for this type of variation is employed in this analysis. Results suggest that increases in assets have the greatest influence on the probability that less …
