In Tatum's five years at Spelman she has striven to make students feel welcome, regardless of their ethnic backgrounds and economic need. Tatum became president of Spelman College in 2002, ending her 13-year tenure at Mount Holyoke where she ascended from psychology professor to department chair, dean and, finally, college president. "My focus on creating inclusive learning environments for all students is rooted in my own experience of sometimes feeling left out during my early school experiences," she says. At this time, she says, she learned how to negotiate in an environment in which she was an outsider. When the Daniel family moved to Bridgewater in 1958 they were one of very few black families there. Her father, Robert Daniel, was the first African-American professor at Bridgewater State College in Bridgewater, Mass. The roots of education run deep in Tatum's family. "Spelman creates an environment for black women so that they can be at the center of education instead of in the margins of it." "Black women are still on the edge marginally," says Tatum. While America has made great strides in the battle against racism and sexism, Spelman College President Beverly Daniel Tatum, PhD, believes that colleges for black women still have relevance. ![]() ![]() ![]() I love how thick, black outlines hold together a colorful splattering of a dinosaur. Dinah is great, and little kids at my next dinosaur story time are going to love her. This is a fun little story with quite the character of a dinosaur.

Dinah goes back to her egg to think about how she might be able to kiss someone. ![]() But she accidentally eats the creature she was trying to kiss. Sh goes and tries to kiss one prehistoric creature only to end up doing a WHOMP! After a few more accidental CHOMP! and STOMP! attempts, she realizes that she must just pucker her lips to kiss. Only, you have to have another to kiss with. She tries a STOMP! and a CHOMP! But then she sees two creatures kiss. As she goes around exploring the world she does a lot of things. Dinah is a dinosaur that just hatched out of her egg. ![]() ![]() ![]() If your rocket was completely still in the middle of space, you and the ball would be weightless. That uniform acceleration has exactly the same effect as gravity.Īnd the opposite is true too. Drop the ball and it will fall just like it would on Earth. If you're in a stationary elevator and you drop a ball, the ball will fall to the floor of the lift at 9.8 metres per second per second - that's the rate of gravitational acceleration for everything that falls to Earth.īut exactly the same thing would happen if you were in a rocket that was accelerating upwards through space at 9.8 metres per second per second.

That was to prevent the King of France capturing him and letting him loose on the English as a rival. Edward would have liked to rid himself of Henry, a rival to his throne, but Francis kept Henry safe. His host was Francis, the Duke of Brittany, who saw Henry Tudor as a pawn in the game between Edward VI and the King of France. That is, suspicious, insecure and crafty but also determined, patient and fiercely proud of his Lancastrian ancestry. One interesting thing about him is his early youth and the fourteen years he spent in exile in France – Brittany to be precise – and those, I believe, made him the man he was eventually to become. Henry VII was the founder of the Tudor dynasty and father of Henry VIII and I’ve been doing a bit of digging on this lesser known Tudor. ![]() The Winter King is also the title of a book by Thomas Penn, and a useful read. Indeed he was born in winter, on January 28th 1457, in Pembroke Castle, in Wales and that is one of the reasons why the Welsh dragon always formed part of his insignia. Since we are in the middle of winter, I’ve been thinking of a volume on my shelves on Henry VII, who could be called the Winter King. ![]() ![]() Knickerbocker, James Vincent Sheean, and Dorothy Thompson, are bound together by “a common cause: the conviction that the ideal of journalistic objectivity revered by their elders and editors had to yield to a different, more personal sort of reporting. ![]() The correspondents, John and Frances Gunther, H. “THEY BEGAN THE decade by reporting the story, but by 1939, they were the story,” writes Deborah Cohen, describing the five American foreign correspondents at the heart of her new book, Last Call at the Hotel Imperial: The Reporters Who Took on a World at War. ![]() ![]() ![]() See the week 1 project area for a fullĭescription of the assignment.The Assignment (5–7 pages)Submit your final test report. įor your Final Project, you create a test report describing theĬonstruction of your own test, combined with the results from yourĪnalysis of the provided dataset.
