Tenure

Director Harris and other board members have frequently spoken about finding a superintendent who will commit to a long-term tenure with the district. Seattle’s current superintendent, Dr. Larry Nyland, came to the district in 2014 to help the district through a transition period. “Extreme credit to Dr. Nyland for coming out of retirement to help the district when we…

Journal Entry 4 In my previous job at Geek Squad, I had a co-worker that I worked extremely well with. He was with the company a lot longer than I was and eventually became my boss. During his tenure, they allowed him to choose an assistant manager and because of how well we worked together, he believed that I was the best option for this position. We accomplished many goals, including an award for being one of the top 10 Geek Squad departments in all of Best Buy. One thing that we both agreed…

Bryant while continuing to promote his short filmm at this year's Tribeca Film Festival in New York City sat down with 1010 WINS Sports Director Marc Ernay to talk Phil Jackson and the New York Knicks. Bryant gave very candid thoughts on Jackson's tenure in New York to this point and offering advice to Carmelo Anthony. "Ive been around Phil for a very, very long time and I think that people tend to forget that there's a lot of hardships that take place. I mean even when he was with Chicago…

Kennedy saw the Peace Corps. as a way of involving Americans more actively in the cause of global democracy, peace, development, and freedom.

penalty, but they only receive little effect. On the television program, David and the governor are having a drastic debate, although David win on the other side, but when governor says:”name one innocent man that Texas has put to death during my tenure”, David cannot say anything. No matter how wonderful the debate is, in the end, David loses on a real example. This seems like a bottleneck of their way to abolish the death penalty. They must prove that there is a miscarriage of justice in the…

After retiring from performing for a live crowd, Gould focused on studio recordings and radio shows. His anxiety while performing at concerts did not disappear after his retirement from stage, instead it shifted to the studio. In addition since he possessed limited amounts of education, Gould resorted to using sophisticated terms while conversing with others. Sadly, often what he said make very little sense as he used these words in the wrong context (Ostwald, 225). This in turn, affected his…

reflect on the people who have supported and helped me so much throughout my graduate study. I would first like to express my gratitude to my dissertation chair, Dr. Cheryl Meyer for her continuous support, genuine care, and valuable guidance during my tenure. Dr. Meyer has never stopped providing me opportunities and sharing her enthusiasms of research. It was under her tutelage that I developed a clear focus and later became interested in this suicide project, the first project that I work…

non-cabinet members of any party from bringing a bill on the subject (p. 231). White (2012) provides two measures to quantify the power of first ministers: their length of tenure and probability of being removed from office (p. 240). In comparison to other Westminster countries, Canadian prime ministers have the longest tenure, and not a single time has a prime minister has been removed from office (p. 240). Although these practices may seem arbitrary – they are democratic in essence.…

As an MPA student, I recall the account that the third Minnowbrook conference gave rise to the concept of 3 E's - Economy, Efficiency and Effectiveness. I still have the index card I wrote with this claim on it, as if it was an immutable fact. As students learning complicated concepts and their application in real-world settings, we did not critically engage with this knowledge (although I anxiously wanted to). In fairness, this requires a transformation in personal capacities that help shift…

The english civil war, like most wars, was fought over economics and religion. this volatile period produced a variety of opinions and reasonings about the king’s right to power and the nature of a commonwealth. the writers of the time all used religious arguments to reach drastically different conclusions though since they were all using the same source material, the bible, it is only natural that they reach many points of consensus. When Charles I came into power in 1625 religious conflicts…
