  Women Who Have Run for President and Continue to Make a Difference

  Presented to the Doctorate in Leadership group at Saint Mary's University

  August 9

  Reaching the Millennial Generation in the Classroom

  The millennial generation (Generation Y) is the age group of children born between 1982 and 2002. Students aged 15 to 16 were asked to answer questions regarding their classroom experience. Sixty eight students were asked to participate in the survey and 63 gave consent for their participation. A qualitative survey approach was used asking three open ended questions

  which yielded some fascinating findings

  which complement the research that has been done on millennials. When a saturation point was reached

  transcribing the same issue multiple times

  the results were compiled and listed in narrative form. From this open-ended survey

  and transcription of data

  the results yielded that this group has a preference for order

  safety and security

  expect to talk more

  and have engaging experiences while learning at the same time. Millennial students say they want to use the creative side of their brain. In the context of assisting teachers in the classrooms and future courses

  instructors must realize that this millennial generation needs to be nurtured

  mentored

  developed

  and released to grow in their own learning.

  The US Constitution and the History of Women Candidates for the Presidency

  In honor of Constitution Day

  Article 2

  section 1 of our U.S Constitution

  and the upcoming election

  Dr. Kotz conducted a study to determine how many women have pursued the U.S. presidency

  and the character and strengths they each brought to the election process

  and to building our country as a nation. In his presentation

  he first reviews the period from the 1870's when our first presidential nominee

  Victoria Woodhull put her name in contention and then brings us to the present current election dynamics

  and ultimately the challenges each of these candidates faced in pursuit of this daunting endeavor.

  to be published. It currently appears in the Marketing Management Association Proceedings Journal.

  Reaching Millennials in the Marketing/Management Classroom

  This generation doesn't wear a watch

  expects GPS in all new vehicles

  gets the news online and chats with friends by text. How do we reach this emerging group in our courses and strategically cater to them in marketing/management classes? Are we preparing them for the future? What can we learn from the group born in 1982 to 2012?

  Personality

  Gender & Learning Styles – Teaching to Student Aptitudes determines personality and cognitive profiles in secondary students

  focusing on intuitive/sensor

  thinker/feeler characteristics of students

  and describes the relationship between personality profiles

  preferred cognitive learning styles and math/reading comprehension aptitudes from ACT Explore results. Dr. Kotz also examines the possibility of gender differences in either reading comprehension or mathematics ability based on these personality characteristics. This study is based on Krause’s Cognitive Profile Model

  built upon Jung and Myers work. Models studied also include Myers-Briggs

  Keirsey and Bates

  Kolb and McCarthy and point toward new possibilities in effective teaching using student personality and cognitive profiles.

  Discusses how a Table Tennis program was built from the ground up in the high school environment. The teams achieved two Minnesota state titles in 2011 and 2013. See page 56 of the Winter Edition - February/March 2014

  Building a High School Program - From the Ground Up

  Discussions among some university and college personnel have begun to focus on whether Na-tional Collegiate Athletic Association football programs bring significantly more revenue and profit to sponsoring schools. Division-I schools tend to benefit from such a program

  and generate far more revenue from football than the program incurs expenses. This study considers only NCAA Division III schools. This quantitative correlational study used data from the 2012-13 Equity in Athletics Data Analysis Cutting Tool (EADA) report. It used variables of revenue and expenses

  and calculated profit. In a comparison of correlations for profit and revenues between schools that had football programs (r = .44) and schools that did not have football programs (r = .58)

  the correlation is stronger for those schools that did not have a football program. This has implications for marketing of programs for Division III schools.

  Using Evaluations Effectively to Improve Teaching

  An examination of the women who have run for president

  reviewing their leadership qualities

  contributions to our history as the U.S.

  and how it has set the stage for the existing election dynamics we have today.\nhttps://youtu.be/6kJ1xZWjpHA

  Women Who Have Run for U.S. President−A Historical Look at Leadership from the 1870’s to the Present

  This study found that in 2012-2013

  a total of 442 D-III schools fit the criteria and 199 of those schools had football programs. D-I

  D-II

  and D-III schools comprise a total population of 1108 NCAA academic institutions. Of those 1108 institutions

  599 had football programs.\n\n\tFor NCAA Division III Schools’ combined statistics for all sports

  there was a moderate correlation between expenses and profit (r = .40). See Table 1. For Division III institutions

  as expenses increase

  so do profits

  but the relationship is not strong

  but moderate. For these Divi-sion III schools that have football programs

  there was again a moderate correlation (r = .34). For these Division III schools that do not have football programs

  there was a higher correlation

  still considered moderate (r = .52).\n\n\tNCAA Division III Schools’ combined statistics for all sports

  showed a moderate corre-lation between revenue and profit (r = .48). See Figure 1. For Division III schools

  as revenues increased

  so do profits

  however

  the correlation was moderate rather than strong. For Division III schools that had football programs

  a moderate correlation (r = .44) existed. For Division III schools that did not have football programs

  although a higher correlation existed

  it was still considered moderate (r =.58). These disparities may have implications for how we market our sports programs within Division III Schools.\n\n
