Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this study is to map and analyze sustainability activities and relationships at the seven Claremont Colleges and graduate institutions using social network analysis (SNA) to inform sustainability planning and programming. Design/methodology/approach Online surveys and interviews were conducted among faculty, staff and students, and a network map was created and analyzed using network statistics to identify network characteristics. Findings The mapped sustainability network has 291 one- and bi-directional connections but with substantial differences among institutions. Pomona and Pitzer colleges have the highest number of sustainability-related courses because of their popular Environmental Analysis programs. The two graduate schools and Scripps College are comparatively isolated. Scripps’ network is small but highly interconnected and resilient. Pomona’s network is extensive but concentrated on a single node. Several other key actors were identified based on the number of nodes extending from or connecting to them. Several new sustainability initiatives were recently launched in response to the study. Practical implications SNA and mapping for campus sustainability can highlight network gaps and network vulnerabilities. To increase completeness, a representative and sufficiently large data sample is needed, requiring multiple, coordinated forms of contact. Interviews yield more detailed and comprehensive information than online surveys but are more time-consuming. Thus, the combination of electronic surveys and in-person interviews can be a successful strategy for maximizing information collection. Originality/value The case study was the first of its kind conducted at the Claremont Colleges and one of the first in higher education. It informs sustainability planning, coordination and integration efforts.

Abstract:
Isabel Fothergill Smith (November 15, 1890-September 16, 1990), Professor Emcrita of Geology and History of Science, Scripps College, Claremont California, began her career in geology and education with the tutelage and mentoring of Florence Bascom at Bryn Mawr College. After receiving her Ph.D. from that institution, Smith embarked upon her career in education as a geology professor at Smith College. In 1929, she became the first Dean at Scripps College, a newly founded women's college in southern California. After six years as Dean and a sabbatical studying history of science at Columbia and Harvard Universities, Smith returned to Scripps and taught history of science and geology there, as well as at Pomona College. She retired from teaching in 1954 and later wrote a biographical memoir of her mentor Florence Bascom.

Abstract:
The Claremont Colleges Library conducted direct rubric assessment of Pitzer College First-Year Seminar research papers to analyze the impact of diverse levels of librarian course collaborations on information literacy (IL) performance in student writing. Findings indicate that progressive degrees of librarian engagement in IL-related course instruction and/or syllabus and assignment design had an increasingly positive impact on student performance. A secondary indirect analysis of librarian teaching evaluations and self-perceived learning gains by students and faculty showed no correlation to rubric IL scores, suggesting the importance of “authentic” assessment in determining actual learning outcomes. This mixed-methods study presents findings in each area and examines their implications for effective IL course collaborations.

Abstract:
<p style="text-align: justify;">Purpose in life is a key construct in the development of young adults, particularly college students. There are many instruments measuring sense of purpose in life, but few studies have examined their measurement properties among college students. The current study compares the measurement invariance properties of the Purpose in Life (PIL) scale and the Claremont Purpose Scale (CPS) across college year and undergraduate school. Using both a unidimensional and a two-dimensional model, we found that the PIL’s interpretability is limited among college students. Using a three-dimensional model, the CPS was invariant with respect to both grouping variables. The study suggests that the CPS can be used to make meaningful comparisons among college students categorized by school year and undergraduate school. The study also has some implications about the construct of purpose in life; namely, scale structures that work well statistically and theoretically among adults might not generalize to young adults.</p>

Abstract:
In looking forward to the important issues of this coming decade, we need only turn to the events of the past year for a sense of what is at stake for theatre, performance, and performance pedagogy. Last year, student activists protested racism on college and university campuses across the United States. At Yale, students protested the hostile racial climate on campus following several incidents, including a professor's dismissal of concerns about racist Halloween costumes, numerous swastika graffiti, and the explicit exclusion of black women from fraternity events. At the University of Missouri, the student group Concerned Student 1950—named for the year the first black students were admitted to the university—called for the resignation of university president, Tim Wolfe, citing the administration's inaction in the face of numerous racist incidents on campus. At Ithaca College, Claremont McKenna University, the University of Kansas, and many other colleges and universities across the United States, students held rallies, performed die-ins, and signed petitions in support of students at the University of Missouri and Yale and to call attention to inequality on their own campuses. Set against the backdrop of Ferguson and an increased awareness of institutionalized violence against black and brown bodies, these events remind us that colleges and universities have always been sites where racial discrimination and inequality have been both perpetuated and protested.

Patterson, Megan. "Environmental Sustainability On College Campuses: A Case Study of Claremont McKenna College." Scholarship @ Claremont, 2017. http://scholarship.claremont.edu/cmc_theses/1536.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis observes sustainability on college campuses, specifically examining Claremont Mckenna College (CMC) as a case study. The question that this research paper explores is: how can we apply an integrative approach, one that integrates biophysical, economic, and social factors, to sustainability at CMC? The objectives of this paper are to (1) outline the history of sustainability on college campuses in the U.S. and define an integrative approach through a review of current literature; (2) explore CMC’s past and current sustainability initiatives from policies, reports, events, and interviews; (3) capture various community members’ perspectives on campus sustainability through surveys and interviews with students, faculty, and staff members; and (4) discuss the barriers and areas that need work at CMC and how an integrative approach can be applied as a solution. Thus, this thesis will track CMC’s progress in sustainability and give feedback as to the areas of success and areas that require work according to a working integrative framework.

Zaytsev, Michael. "Predicting Enrollment Decisions of Students Admitted to Claremont McKenna College." Scholarship @ Claremont, 2011. http://scholarship.claremont.edu/cmc_theses/107.

Full text
Abstract:
College admission has become increasingly competitive in the internet era. This is especially true for the highest caliber of students and institutions. College admission is a process filled with asymmetric information. One of the biggest asymmetries occurs when schools admit students not knowing whether or not students will actually enroll. This uncertainty is economically costly to schools. As national rankings become more and more influential, schools are more sensitive to their rank and the statistics that determine them. One of these is yield, the percentage of admitted students who enroll. This paper examines data on admitted students to Claremont McKenna College and uses a probit regression to predict their enrollment decision. By successfully predicting enrollment decisions schools can eliminate some information asymmetry and therefore raise their yield.

Lee, Elizabeth. "Sexual Educational and Agency Culture at the Claremont Colleges." Scholarship @ Claremont, 2016. http://scholarship.claremont.edu/scripps_theses/832.

Full text
Abstract:
Agency and consent, or individual empowerment and mutual respect, are deeply embedded values and topics of discussion within the Claremont discourse and expectations. Within that framework, sexual education becomes of particular interest, both as an exploration of how Claremont students understand what consent and agency mean as well as of the agency they hold over the development of their education and own identities/well-being. Within the community of the Claremont Colleges, or 5C, community (an undergraduate liberal arts campus) sexual agency is a major point of contemporary interest, encompassing how we understand and implement consent and pleasure among a diverse group of individuals. This study analyzes the ways in which students’ conceptions of sexual agency and education relate to the resources, programs, and materials offered to them within their community.

Takeuchi, Naomi. "A CROSS-SECTIONAL ANALYSIS OF MALE CONTRACEPTIVE USE AND ATTITUDES AT THE CLAREMONT COLLEGES." Scholarship @ Claremont, 2018. http://scholarship.claremont.edu/scripps_theses/1163.

Full text
Abstract:
This study investigates cisgender, heterosexual male opinions regarding contraceptive use at the Claremont Colleges to determine current sexual practices and discern receptibility to novel types of birth control. The number of contraceptives available to women has gone through a significant incline within the past century while male birth control remains limited to withdrawal, condoms, vasectomy and abstinence. Using data collected from students through an online survey, the study addresses the following research questions: 1. What is the landscape of sexual behavior for cisgender, heterosexual men at the Claremont Colleges? 2. How are men situated in family planning as users of current and potential forms of birth control? The results of the study show that men at the Claremont Colleges are active participants in contraception and are receptive to novel birth control options under certain conditions and for various reasons. Participants in the study reveal a need to increase visibility of men’s opinions of male birth control and to emphasize the attitudes of young adults in discussing the responsibility distribution associated with birth control.

Jeddeloh, Laura R. "Let’s Talk about Sex: An Examination of Sexual Discourses at the Claremont Colleges." Scholarship @ Claremont, 2014. http://scholarship.claremont.edu/scripps_theses/468.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis explores the multiple sexual discourses at the Claremont Colleges and the ways in which they create understanding of normative sexual behavior. It situates Claremont in the rising national consciousness and research on college student’s sexual behavior. It examines the dual discourses of sex and sexual violence, arguing that discussions of sexual violence have started to inform the every-day student discourses of sex. The data is drawn from Claremont media publications, and interviews with campus activist groups and individual students themselves. This thesis asserts that the dual narratives of sexual “pleasure and danger” in the national and Claremonts media sources are complicated by the discourses of Claremont students. The voices of individual students challenge the essentialized mainstream assumptions about the “hookup culture” and reveal that talking about sex plays a far more diverse and significant factor in the social fabric of student lives.

Abstract:
Four students portray Pomona College housekeeping staff that cannot speak for themselves, taking their words from letters written to Pomona College President David Oxtoby about problems in the work environment. Problems includede are sex discrimination, failure of managment to respond, gossip being reported to managers and used in evaluations, employees being kept as 'on-call' for years without health benefits, a sense of hopelessness, that no one is listening, and if they talk to students they are labeled troublemakers. The film ends with a series of still photographs of 17 Pomona staff members taken on the Pomona College campus in various locations with their names and number of years employed by Pomona College.

Full text
Abstract:
This study measures levels of religiosity and secularity among students at the Claremont Colleges, including students’ (ir)religious affiliations, beliefs, and practices. The religious landscape in the U.S. is shifting in multiple ways, and young adults feature prominently in these changes. Using data from an online survey of students, the present study addresses the following research questions: What is the (ir)religious makeup of the student body at the Claremont Colleges? Do the observed patterns mirror those of the general U.S. population? The results of this study show that the sample population at the Claremont Colleges is much less religious than the U.S. as a whole in terms of affiliation, beliefs, and practices. The findings highlight the shifting religious landscape in the U.S., particularly in the younger population, and the importance of understanding these shifts in order to best serve the needs of students.

Shaker, Dana. "Dwelling in Possibility: Narrating, Requesting, and Providing Food "Options" in the Lives of Dietary-Restricted College Students." Scholarship @ Claremont, 2014. http://scholarship.claremont.edu/scripps_theses/402.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis explores 5C dietary-restricted college students’ reiteration of a “lack of [food] options” in the dining hall and at on-campus, institutionally-sponsored events of particularly Scripps College. Given that Scripps specifically has in the past responded to dietary-restricted student needs, and that it offers an admittedly broad variety of foods for a college dining hall, dietary-restricted students’ dissatisfaction with “food options” presents an interesting problem. Situated within broader Claremont College community discussions, this ethnographic work hopes to better understand not just what students want, but what they need to socially and culturally sustain themselves while dwelling in the residential 5C community. I argue that when my dietary- and non-dietary-restricted interlocutors narrate their desire for, request, and provide food options, they are engaging in efforts to facilitate access to membership and participation in all aspects of the “residential college experience.” In the spirit of interlocutors’ enduring determination to exist in a space of possibility with regard to their identities and the necessary food options that could exist, this thesis also contains Scripps-specific suggestions to better include those with dietary restrictions in the Scripps College residential community.

Abstract:
The fuzzball model of a black hole is an attempt to resolve the many paradoxes and puzzles of black hole physics that have revealed themselves over the last century. These badly behaved solutions of general relativity have given physicists one of the few laboratories to test candidate quantum theories of gravity. Though little is known about exactly what lies beyond the event horizon, and what the ultimate fate of matter that falls in to a black hole is, we know a few intriguing and elegant semi-classical results that have kept physicists occupied. Among these are the known black hole entropy and the Hawking radiation process.

This chapter focuses on young Aden Meinel’s training and experience in Caltech’s rocket program, led by Charles Lauritsen, his son Tom Lauritsen, and Willy Fowler—specifically target rockets, barrage rockets, antisubmarine rockets, and aircraft rockets—funded first by the National Defense Research Committee (NDRC) and then the Office of Scientific Research and Development (OSRD). Marjorie Meinel also participated in the editorial section of these projects while working on her master’s degree in astronomy at Claremont Colleges. Aden trained gunners at Camp Pendleton and helped to design rocket launchers for use in World War II. Not long after Aden married Marjorie, he learned that his deferment for rocket research had not been renewed, and he was ordered to report for active duty in the US Navy.
