From the Land of Bröd and Smör
Author: Avis Dillon
Publisher: Booktango
ISBN: 1468932144
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
This novel is based on historical facts...not the usual historical facts but ones far more personal and individual. Over 67 letters were written by a Swedish immigrant to his family back in the old country over a period of approximately 48 years that John Eric Jernberg lived in this country. He and his brother arrived in the Dakota Territory before it became two states and at various times in his life, lived in Idaho, Oregon and Washington. These letters painted a detailed picture of life in those areas from 1881 to his death in 1928 and are the basis for this story. John Eric was very careful to identify almost anyone he mentioned in his letters by their full name. However, many of the family members were called by their middle name or their first and middle name together, or by their initials. The spelling of some of the names is a translation matter and sometimes appears to be interchangeable. John's wife was sometimes was referred to Anna Marie, Anna Maria or even just Maria. The letter "K" was often transposed to "C". Catharina Jernberg was, in Sweden, Katharina, the "C" being the American spelling. To add to the confusion, Catharina, her daughter, was usually referred to as Carin, and her mother, Katharina, was called Karin, which was actually her middle name. Perhaps this confusion of names led John Eric to often identify even close family members in his letter by full names. Peter Fredrik was usually referred to as PF, however. There were, in the family, three "Carls." The father, Carl Gustav; one son, Carl Olaf; (who was called Charles after he reached America) and Carin's young son Carl Erik. We appreciate the fact that John Eric was so precise in identifying who he was speaking about in his letters. We hope you will enjoy this glimpse of life in the mid and far West as seen through the eyes of John Eric Jernberg, Swedish immigrant. Its creation was truly a labor of love.

The Purposeful Graduate
Author: Timothy Thomas Clydesdale
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022623634X
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 359
Book Description
American higher education is more expensive than ever and the rewards seem to be diminishing daily. Sociologist Tim Clydesdale s new book, however, offers some rare good news: when colleges and universities meaningfully engage their organizational histories to launch sustained conversations with students about questions of purpose, the result is a rise in overall campus engagement and recalibration of post-college trajectories that set graduates on journeys of significance and impact. The book is based on a study of programs launched at 88 colleges and universities that invited students, faculty, staff, and administrators to incorporate questions of meaning and purpose into the undergraduate experience. The results were so positive that Clydesdale came away from the study arguing that every campus (religious or not) should engage students in a broad conversation about what it means to live an examined life. This conversation needs to be creative, intentional, systematic, and wide-ranging, he says, because for too long this core liberal educational task has been relegated to the margins, and its attendant religious or spiritual discourse banished from classrooms and quads, to the detriment of higher education s virtually universal mission: graduates marked by thoughtfulness, productivity, and engaged citizenship."

The First Year Out
Author: Tim Clydesdale
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226110672
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
Wild parties, late nights, and lots of sex, drugs, and alcohol. Many assume these are the things that define an American teenager’s first year after high school. But the reality is really quite different. As Tim Clydesdale reports in The First Year Out, teenagers generally manage the increased responsibilities of everyday life immediately after graduation effectively. But, like many good things, this comes at a cost. Tracking the daily lives of fifty young people making the transition to life after high school, Clydesdale reveals how teens settle into manageable patterns of substance use and sexual activity; how they meet the requirements of postsecondary education; and how they cope with new financial expectations. Most of them, we learn, handle the changes well because they make a priority of everyday life. But Clydesdale finds that teens also stow away their identities—religious, racial, political, or otherwise—during this period in exchange for acceptance into mainstream culture. This results in the absence of a long-range purpose for their lives and imposes limits on their desire to understand national politics and global issues, sometimes even affecting the ability to reconstruct their lives when tragedies occur. The First Year Out is an invaluable resource for anyone caught up in the storm and stress of working with these young adults.
