Often, emerging adults spend their summers working in the camp environment. While efforts have been made to understand the camper experience, research regarding the growth and development lacks, especially as it concerns leadership. This study uses data gathered by Ribbe and Cyrus in their exploratory study, "Exploring the Impact of Summer Camp Employment on Camp Staff." In this study, 236 camp staff between the ages of 18 - 24 completed the Leadership Practices Inventory by Kouzes and Posner. This study seeks to explore the following: (1) the impact of Christian summer camp employment on leadership development of emerging adult staff and (2) what aspects of staff training, supervision, and care are correlated with positive growth in leadership. The data showed that emerging adults do grow in leadership ability from the beginning to the end of their summer spent working in the camp employment. Although camp cannot be claimed as the cause of this positive change in leadership, Pearson Correlation tests reveal that there is a connection between aspects of staff training, support, and supervision and what the Leadership Practices Inventory measures.

Abstract: Law enforcement officers have a unique job description. Long periods of sedentary behavior are intermixed with moments of required physical exertion. The purpose of this study was to assess the need of a regulated exercise training program, the effect of the motivational environment of a workout facility, and the need for incentives to benefit law enforcement officers'' health and physical fitness levels. Participants included 76 (62 male) active law enforcement officers employed by a university in the Big XII conference. Measures included a fifty-four item questionnaire including demographic information, specific health and exercise questions and questions concerning specific incentives to increase exercise adherence. The Commitment to Exercise Scale and the Perceived Motivational Climate in Exercise Questionnaire are two previously validated surveys that were also used. University police departments were contacted via email and asked for their willingness to participate. Upon agreement an email was sent containing the link to the online Qualtrics survey. The survey was available for one month. Descriptive statistics were calculated for the Commitment to Exercise Scale and the Perceived Motivational Climate Scale. Demographics and total responses for health and exercise questions also were examined using descriptive statistics. Frequencies were calculated for gender, individual health information and individual exercise information. Results found the average BMI was 29.43 which is classified as overweight. The most common health symptom was high blood pressure. The majority (51.4%) spent 3-5 days per week participating in exercise. Police officers in the Big XII perceive the climate within their fitness facility as ego-involving which involves individuals being motivated by extrinsic factors as opposed to the desirable intrinsic motivators. Incentives that are important to this population include the ability to earn time off or being promoted. These results are important because it is apparent that the current fitness regimens being performed are not successful in decreasing health complications. This population, which is at a greater risk for cardiovascular disease and is involved with a known stressful occupation, will benefit from participating in a regulated physical fitness regimen.

The tales in Sarah Davis Pearson''s charming book offer an informal history of a great American Age. In retelling the stories members of a Wisconsin family told one another between the Civil and Second World Wars, she touches on the changes in life and customs during that century. Although meticulous research enhanced her memory, the author admits that, being family, not every one of the principals involved would agree with her account of every episode. Many of the stories are humorous. Others illustrate rapid advances in science, communication, and transportation and the effects of massive European immigration to the United States. In essence, this memoir is an affectionate recollection of growing up in a close and lively family during days long gone.

Less than one year after the armistice ending World War I, several American cities and towns erupted in race-related violence. The period came to be known as the "Red Summer of 1919" and was immortalized by Claude McKay in his poem "If We Must Die". Recalling Longview is the true story of how racial prejudice and misunderstanding in a small Texas community led to violence and economic injustice for the town''s blacks that have never been resolved. With its still-lingering effects on one black family, the July, 1919 riot in Longview, Texas remains a gripping saga appropriate for study by students of history and sociology, as well as any American, seeking to understand our national past.

A companion to the successful "Guerilla Film Maker''s Handbook", this book deals with every aspect of professional music making in today''s popular music industry on both sides of the Atlantic. In creating music and developing a career, almost everyone starts out "independently", that is without the support of a large company. However, independent music making can be defined in a broad sense as a particular attitude towards creating and distribution of music held by professional people. The attitude involves a commitment to retaining control over your work as far as it is practically comaptible with getting it to the larget possible relevant audience. This does not necessarily mean that the independent musician does everything him or herself. One of the most important dimensions of the book will be the checklists of questions musicians need to ask themselves in order to decide whether they need outside help from a manager, lawyer, accountant, record company, music publisher, agent, press officer, plugger etc. The book is divided into six sections, each of which includes brief interviews with key experts. The first two deal with the main areas of musical activity - live performance and recording. Section three explains other aspects of musical activity while section four gets down to the nitty-gritty of the business aspects of making music. Section five summarizes the whole area through some well-chosen real life examples of independent musical activity. Finally, a toolkit section will provide examples of key documents (recording contracts, PRS membership agreements, etc) and other relevant data.
