Attempts are being made to reform the Khrushchev leadership of the Ukrainian agricultural sector in the context of a proclaimed policy of a powerful uplift of the agricultural sector in the short term. The ways and methods used to achieve this goal are shown. It was noted that in addition to financial support and reorganization of the structure of management of the material and production sphere of the village, a course was taken to increase the intellectual potential of the management and technological units of the collective farm production and its servicing structures, namely, machine-tractor stations. It is shown that this was planned at the expense of non-agricultural workers and residents of the city. It was found that the course to solve problems of agricultural production at the expense of other sectors of the economy did not justify itself At the same time, it is noted, in the course of its implementation, radical structural and organizational changes have occurred in the industry, the result of which was the abolition of the outdated system of relations between the collective farms and the state. The servicing agricultural artel structures, together with the material base and their employees, were included in the collective farms and became their integral part. At the same time there was a change in the functions of their specialists. Instead of bureaucratic planning and control, they began to implement technological and managerial ones. As a result of such changes, a new professional and industrial unit was formed in the collective farms, and in the countryside - a new social stratum - the production intelligentsia. In essence, this process was a cursory one, as the priority was to increase the productivity of collective farm production in accordance with the increased needs of the state through the elementary quantitative saturation of technological and managerial units of collective farms employees assigned to perform the relevant functions. This testified to the continued underestimation of the agricultural industry and the new management, to treating it as less valuable than other industries. In fact, despite certain quantitative and qualitative shifts, there was a lack of fulfillment of the basic tasks of organizational and economic reform of the material and production sphere of the Ukrainian village, as one of the important components of a powerful uplift of agricultural production.

In line with the wishes, the course of Malaysia Studies is a major medium for the building of patriotism values among students. Hence, the Malaysian Studies Course was strengthened and used as one of the General Subjects (MPUs) conducted by all Institutions of Higher Learning. All citizens and non-citizens are required to attend and pass the Malaysian Studies Course as a graduation requirement. In order to make the course more interesting and interactive, the Teaching And Learning method is always improved to achieve the predetermined learning outcomes.

As a measure of progress, the experiences today of women athletes in the state of Ohio are far different from those attending institutions of higher learning just after the passage of Title IX of the Education Amendments Act of 1972. But how different, and how much progress has been made? The purpose of this study was to assess the level of progress made by compiling and analyzing data available through the Equity in Athletics Disclosure reports filed by 61 junior colleges, four year colleges, and universities in the State of Ohio over a four year span of time for the academic years 2002-2006.2 The template for this study was the report completed by the Women’s Law Project examining gender equity in intercollegiate athletics in colleges and universities in Pennsylvania (Cohen, 2005), the first study of its kind. Similar to that effort, this study assesses the success with which intercollegiate athletic programs in Ohio have collectively responded to the mandates of Title IX in areas of participation opportunities and financial allocations in the form of operating budgets, scholarship assistance, recruiting and coaching.3

As a veteran gypsy scholar who has done time in seven or eight institutions of higher learning, I thought I had seen it all. But once again, I was wrong. This time it was not a question of teaching per se — as in the university where I was ordered to teach Texas Politics within two weeks of entering the state. Now it was just a little thing: the chalk-holders on the blackboards were usually empty.For a teacher, the situation was irritating. The standard operating procedure was to ask the departmental secretary for a piece of chalk—two if you insisted. You were then supposed to take the chalk with you from class to class because, I was told, it would disappear if you left it in the room.

The article is based on the analysis of a wide range of documentary sources reflecting qualitative characteristics of production personnel of regional food industry enterprises. The authors consider the problems of industry staffing in the first years following the end of the Great Patriotic War. The historiography of the topic is represented by publications on various aspects of national industry development, which take into account modern achievements of historical science and development of source base. However, assessment of qualification and social maturity of human resources, material conditions of work, and influence of all these factors on the efficiency of food industry have not yet been subject of special research. The territorial framework of the study is limited the Kursk region in its borders prior to 1954. On this territory, which was a part of the Central Black Earth economic region of the RSFSR, the food industry was a traditional and developing branch of production, as it had its own potent raw material base. The solution of staffing problems in the post-war years was significantly affected by the region’s front-line situation, which has influenced the nature of the tasks to be solved. The main sources are executive directives of government bodies and record keeping materials of enterprises, which characterize the state of the industry human resources. The documentary materials used in preparation of this article have been identified by the authors in the fonds of the Russian State Archive of Economics and in the State Archive of the Kursk Region. They reveal the multi-factorial process of providing the food industry, the main branch of regional economy, with competent employees. The authors have analyzed the content of the documents and presented, on the basis of archival sources, a general overview of the human resources in the industry in the post-war years of reconstruction and modernization. The most informative, from the point of view of the designated topic, are the regional archival fonds. The documentary sources used in the preparation of the article address the situation with personnel in the regional food industry in 1946–48 years quite objectively. Their introduction into scientific use contributes to authoritative depiction of personnel policy implemented locally in the days of post-war economic recovery.
