Diversity Issues

Although the lack of diversity in newsrooms and reporting remains a serious issue in the journalism industry, college journalism education and student media provide a critical opportunity for change. Yet prior research has found notable diversity gaps in both. This study analyzed the state of diversity at a Midwestern university student newspaper and found significant gaps in coverage of diverse populations. The findings suggest the need for more comprehensive diversity education within the college classroom and campus media advising. This is important not only for more representative student media, but also for the future of journalism.

Diversity Issues

Diversity is a topic that is increasingly important in BSW curriculum content. Social work students are going into practice in a multicultural milieu, and there is not enough room in the core curriculum for BSW educators to add unlimited elective courses to cover every diverse population group. As one case example, Baby Boomers of all races and backgrounds are aging, contributing to an unprecedented growth in the aging population. Included in this group are lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) elders. Diversity issues, including LGBT elder issues, cross all practice areas; therefore, infusion of content embedded in courses can at least introduce students to the needs of these diverse populations and assist them in envisioning possible solutions to address these needs. This article presents a rationale for the infusion of diversity content into the BSW curriculum focusing on the example of LGBT elders. Suggestions for pedagogical infusion strategies are included.

Scholarly Inquiry

Within higher education, journalism studies is often seen as an uncomfortable bedfellow with journalism training; there is evidence of a pervasive disconnect between research and teaching, as between theory and practice. However, voices within journalism education are calling for a more critical curriculum informed by scholarly research. There are suggestions that the journalists now doing much of the teaching within university journalism departments could play a key role in establishing a more critical journalism education and, by doing so, contributing towards more critical forms of journalism. Within this context, do journalists-turned-journalism-educators see any point in researching journalism or would they rather simply pass on vocational skills to the next generation? This article is based on asking a sample group of such ‘hackademics’ working in UK and/or Irish universities about the utility of scholarly inquiry into journalism. The article suggests that exploring ostensibly ‘bleeding obvious’ aspects of journalism may not be the pointless exercise derided by some commentators; rather, it could be precisely what journalism educators ought to be doing.

The introduction explains the role of the Daily Tar Heel, the UNC student newspaper, in the broader context of the university and the state of North Carolina. It outlines the key arguments and themes in the book: academic freedom, freedom of speech and press; the ideological evolution of the university; the political push-pull over progressivism and conservatism in the state; and the role of big-time athletics at a top-tier research institution.

This paper provides the state of art and hints on how to lay the foundations of an adaptive QoS approach in Next Generation Networks (NGN). The key idea is to provide a model, which would offer one application version or another, depending on the Quality of Service (QoS) negotiated at the session establishment in a NGN. The stake of this research is a better-balanced usage of the network, for maximizing the service offered to the user given his or her network capacities. It encompasses the model for such an implementation in a NGN as IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS).

The aim of the study was to determine the chances of the Slavonian family farms for social reproduction in the next generation and to determine attitudes of farmers towards some aspects of family farm inheritance and the possible ways of preventing the division of land. The research was carried out on a sample of 202 family farms. The analysis showed that the chances to remain as integral production units in the next generation are realistic for only 48% of family farms. The traditional pattern of behavior is obvious with regard to inheritance and to postponing the transfer of management and control of the farm resources. The majority of the Slavonian farmers find that it would be proper if the state were to introduce special measures to regulate the integrity of the land and to offer subsidies and easements for the "entry" of the young into the agriculture.

Turkish Higher Education

In 2000, Turkey had 1.5 million university students at 71 universities, whereas today, it has a much broader field of higher education with a university student population of over seven million at more than 200 universities. Although this quantitative expansion has brought some advantages, it has also created several problems, the most significant of which have emerged in terms of "quality". Whether quality increases in parallel with this expansion is an essential issue to consider. This paper emphasizes that HE institutions need to focus on "competition" to support the quantitative expansion in the field of Turkish HE with qualitative improvement. For this purpose, first, the state of the Turkish HE was overviewed from past to present. Next, the importance of "competition" for Turkish HE was highlighted and the two fundamental theories of competition were discussed by reviewing the related literature. Finally, a theoretical model based on the factors obtained through an assessment of how these theories can be applied to HE was presented.

The most effective pioneers of mental revolution are learners. Learners are the next generation of this nation, and learners who will take many roles in the development of the Indonesian nation. The advanced nation is determined by the person involved in the care of the Indonesian people, the advanced church is determined by the youth and members of the congregation who are actively involved in it. It is undeniable that changes within the church and within this nation are much influenced by the nation's children. Thus, the bachelors involved in the church and the state must be the nation's children who have good character, have a steel mental who will firmly fight for the Indonesian people and gerind from corruption, collusion, nepotism and other attitudes that can divide an alliance both in the church and in the nation. Therefore, the nation's children who are expected to bring change, are expected to be well educated, and have a commitment to be honest in advancing this nation, so teachers, especially Christian teachers who directly touching in educating the nation's children are expected to give its role as a destination planner mature learning, being a good example and able to create synergy between schooland parents

The state-of-the-art for melanoma treatment has recently witnessed an enormous revolution, evolving from a chemotherapeutic, “one-drug-for-all” approach, to a tailored molecular- and immunological-based approach with the potential to make personalized therapy a reality. Nevertheless, methods still have to improve a lot before these can reliably characterize all the tumoral features that make each patient unique. While the clinical introduction of next-generation sequencing has made it possible to match mutational profiles to specific targeted therapies, improving response rates to immunotherapy will similarly require a deep understanding of the immune microenvironment and the specific contribution of each component in a patient-specific way. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence and single-cell profiling of resected tumor samples are paving the way for this challenging task. In this review, we provide an overview of the state-of-the-art in artificial intelligence and multiplexed immunohistochemistry in pathology, and how these bear the potential to improve diagnostics and therapy matching in melanoma. A major asset of in-situ single-cell profiling methods is that these preserve the spatial distribution of the cells in the tissue, allowing researchers to not only determine the cellular composition of the tumoral microenvironment, but also study tissue sociology, making inferences about specific cell-cell interactions and visualizing distinctive cellular architectures - all features that have an impact on anti-tumoral response rates. Despite the many advantages, the introduction of these approaches requires the digitization of tissue slides and the development of standardized analysis pipelines which pose substantial challenges that need to be addressed before these can enter clinical routine.
