(1980). The Equal Credit Opportunity Act and Credit Rights in Housing. Designed for the general public and possibly suitable also for high school economics students, this pamphlet describes the provisions of the Equal Credit Opportunity Act. The act prohibits discrimination because of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, marital status, and age when applying for a mortgage or home improvement loan. The pamphlet presents general rules for lenders and specifically states that a lender may not: (1) discourage an applicant from applying for a loan; (2) refuse to make a loan to qualified applicants; (3) lend an applicant money on terms different from those granted another applicant with similar assets; (4) rely on a property appraisal based on the racial makeup of a neighborhood; (5) ask about childbearing plans; (6) refuse to consider reliable alimony, child support, or separate maintenance payments; (7) refuse to consider reliable income from part-time employment or public assistance; or (8) require another signature on a creditworthy applicant's… [PDF]

Merriam, Allen H. (1987). Elijah Lovejoy and Free Speech. Elijah P. Lovejoy, generally regarded as America's first martyr to freedom of the press, was killed by a racist mob in Alton, Illinois, in November 1837, after a brief but tumultuous career as an crusading antislavery newspaper editor and preacher. Born into a stern Maine Protestant family, he migrated to St. Louis, became a minister, and began publishing a religious newspaper called "The Observer." Increasingly opposed to slavery, Lovejoy's journalistic attacks earned him such enmity that he was forced to move his press and family to Alton. Lovejoy's life in Alton produced defenses of free expression that rank him among history's greatest advocates of civil liberty. His printing presses were destroyed on three separate occasions by anti-abolitionist mobs, until the community met and formally requested him to terminate newspaper publication in Alton. Lovejoy defended himself with a speech filled with religious imagery and allusions to death–rhetoric that indicated he had… [PDF]

Kamasaki, Charles (1986). Action Needed To Educate Hispanics, Employers about Implications of New Immigration Legislation. Designed to inform key members of La Raza about practical implications of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986, this bulletin outlines immediate action that should be taken to educate the Hispanic community and employers about the legislation. Brief summaries are provided for four critical provisions of the legislation: (1) a legalization program that permits certain individuals to become permanent resident aliens; (2) farmworker provisions; (3) a requirement that non-citizen applicants for federal benefit programs be screened to insure legal entitlement; and (4) employer sanctions that make it illegal for employers to knowingly hire undocumented persons. The following section sets out actions that should be taken and actions that should be avoided by employers as well as individual Hispanics. Employers are cautioned against firing any current employees regardless of their immigration status or discriminating against individuals on the basis of national origin….

Bernard, Francoise (1986). Equal Opportunity Counsellors: Professional Training and Profile. Report on a Seminar (Berlin, West Germany, October 30-31, 1985). This three-part report presents an overview of an international survey and an international seminar at which survey results were disseminated–both on the topic of equal opportunity counselors. Part 1 focuses on the framework structure involved in the implementation of equal opportunities policy.

Part 2 offers the occupational profile of equal opportunity counselors. The tasks most commonly linked to this post and the skills required for it are highlighted. Part 3 provides a clarification of training requirements. Topics are training characteristics, training content, and training modalities. Appendixes include the questionnaire and lists of seminar participants and speakers. (YLB)…

Ross, Pat; Williams, Richard P. (1986). You Are Not an Indian without a Roll Number or White Card. The United States Office of Indian Education is requesting that all children who are served in the Indian Education Program prove their Indian ancestry with a roll number or Certificate Degree of Indian Blood (CDIB) card. This practice is discriminatory because (1) the Native American is the only ethnic group in the United States that must prove its ethnic background to participate in an education program at a public school; (2) ancestors of many Native Americans of the Five Tribes of Oklahoma were not part of the Dawes Commission enrollment (closed in 1906); (3) in 1924, the United States government made all Indians American citizens; and (4) there is no provision for the Native American who has been adopted. Most Oklahoma Indian families do not have the time, money, energy, and/or expertise to complete the complicated process of securing the CDIB card for their children to participate in an Indian Education Program at school that provides tutoring in the basic subjects. Meanwhile,…

Ballard, Joseph, Ed.; And Others (1982). Special Education in America: Its Legal and Governmental Foundations. The text presents six chapters on the legal and governmental bases of special education. In the Introduction, F. Weintraub and J. Ballard cite the legislative and litigative history of P.L. 94-142, the Education for All Handicapped Children Act, and briefly address information sources on such policy issues as procedural safeguards, underserved populations, and standards of practice. In chapter 2, "The Education for All Handicapped Children Act of 1975 (P.L. 94-142): Its History, Origins, and Concepts," J. Zettel and J. Ballard review court cases and state and federal legislation, and list the rights of handicapped children, including the right to an appropriate education and the right to be educated in the least restrictive environment. J. Zettel in "Implementing the Right to a Free Public Education" analyzes five aspects of P.L. 94-142: zero reject, individualized education programs, least restrictive environment, nondiscriminatory testing and evaluation, and…

Lundy, Katherina L. P.; Warme, Barbara D. (1988). Career Patterns and Role Performance of Part-Time Academics: The Impact of Sex and Setting. ASHE 1988 Annual Meeting Paper. Two arguments on the impact of sex and setting in part-time faculty are offered: (1) that men and women come to part-time teaching by somewhat different routes, but once they arrive in a specific setting and encounter similar work and work conditions, the impact of sex is muted; and (2) that there are two important aspects related to work settings (there are patterned differences between those teaching in other unionized settings and those in the Faculty of Education and these differences make the part-time experience a largely positive one in the setting of the Faculty of Education). Research conducted during 1983-1986 included a mail questionnaire survey of 608 members of Unit 2 of the Canadian Union of Educational Workers. Questions were categorized as follows: social characteristics, academic career history, willingness or reluctance to teach part-time, scholarly and disciplinary activities, work setting experiences, perceived impact of gender on academic career decisions/career…

(1977). The Black Vote: Election '76. Research on black political behavior in the 1976 congressional and presidential elections is presented. The purpose of the report is to present facts and figures which describe the impact of the black vote in the election of Jimmy Carter and of numerous congressional and gubernatorial candidates. Twenty three states were involved in an examination of the voting behavior of approximately 23% of the estimated total registered black voters. Election results were gathered directly from Boards of Election. Earlier research had identified the most heavily black congressional districts, counties, and municipalities. Major findings include: approximately 64% of the registered black voters voted; black voter turnout was higher in the North and West than in the South; Carter received 90% of all black votes. In 13 of the states monitored, black votes for Carter exceeded his margin of victory. The implications of the findings are that black voters can have a significant impact on an election….

(1977). Suggestions for Compliance with Privacy Rights of Parents and Students (Buckley Amendments). These suggestions for formulating school district policies governing the confidentiality and release of student records are based on the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (the Buckley amendment) and on relevant Arizona state law. A checklist, which covers the major section of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, is designed to allow educators to evaluate their districts' current safeguards and policies regarding the confidentiality of student records. The format is a simple "yes" or "no" response; if "no" is the answer to any question, then the district's policies and practices do not match those of the federal law. The addenda include the text of the Buckley amendment, Arizona state law, the state attorney general's decisions relating to privacy rights, and guidelines for school district retention and disposal of records.

International cooperation in the attainment of social welfare rights is explored in terms of the Canadian attitude towards social development. (WI)…

Seifer, Nancy (1976). Where Feminism and Ethnicity Intersect: The Impact of Parallel Movements. Working Paper Series Number 16. In the past five years, the Women's Movement and rising ethnic identity among white and racial minority groups have become facts of life in American society. Both movements challenged the myth of the American melting pot and the promise of \freedom, justice and liberty for all.\ The answer to apparent societal fragmentation may be found in an examination of the reciprocal impacts of cultural diversity and the Women's Movement. In its early years, the Movement's base was narrow, appealing to white, middle class professionals, and frequently alienating the majority of American women. But as the Movement dug deeper into all areas of discrimination, the fight for equal rights gained new adherents and new affiliations with organizations that focused on the needs of working class women. The Movement's impact is visible in such developments as the formation of women's labor unions, innovative education programs sensitive to women's special needs, and women's support groups in ethnic…

Anastasiow, Mary A. (1980). Models of Advocacy for the School Psychologist. A child advocate, whether parent or designated member of an agency, must be a representative of the child's interests and must ascertain that schools are performing their functions as prescribed by legal, social, and moral standards. The person best situated to assume the role of child advocate in the schools is the school psychologist. Several models of child advocacy are applicable within the educational domain. In the \personal advocacy\ model, the school psychologist remains independent of direct service delivery by connecting the child and family with appropriate agencies, and concentrates on enhancing the child's awareness of his/her needs, interests, and resources. In the \class advocacy\ model, intervention acts to bring about changes desired by persons concerned with issues such as laws affecting children within the schools, and identification and improvement of services required by exceptional children. In each model, the school psychologist functions as the bridge between…

Sinensky, Jeffrey P.; Weisz, Richard A. (1980). Church-State Separation: Recent Trends and Developments. ADL Domestic Report: Law, Vol. VI, No. 1. LAW, v6 n1 Win. Recent trends and developments regarding the practice of religion in public schools are discussed in this report. Topics included are prayer, display of religious symbols and materials, holiday observances, weekend activities, distribution and study of scriptural literature, "parochiaid," and religious discrimination. The author concludes that the Establishment Clause of the U. S. Constitution has been breached with increasing frequency because of a trend towards more conservative attitudes by the public at large who are not tolerant of minority views; the growth of the Christian evangelical movement and its entry into politics; and the apparent willingness of judges to relax previous interpretations of the tri-partite test to evaluate governmental activity challenged under the Establishment Clause. (JEH)…

Jenkinson, Edward B. (1978). "Who Will Control the Minds of the Students" in Warsaw, Indiana? Occasional Paper Number 16. A chronology of the events in a 1977-1978 series of teacher/school board/administrator conflicts in Warsaw, Indiana, is presented in this paper. Newspaper stories, editorials, letters, memoranda, interview statements, legal documents, and minutes of various meetings are cited in accounts of numerous individual events. The events reported involve conflicts regarding the school board's removal of an individually guided elementary education program; the banning and burning of a values clarification book used in the high school; the banning of three books used by a high school teacher, and the teacher's subsequent dismissal; the dismissals of other teachers for nonacademic reasons; the school board-initiated search for "objectionable material" used in classrooms; the discontinuation of a phase-elective program at the high school; alleged administrator intimidation of a student who wrote an editorial supporting two dismissed teachers; and the complaint brought before the…

Gordon, Helen H. (1977). The Effects of Affirmative Action on the Role of the Employment Screening Committee. A selected sample of faculty at Bakersfield College was surveyed to determine their perception of the effects of a district affirmative action policy on the role of the screening committee in the hiring process. It was anticipated that many would perceive the role of the committee to have been diminished and would offer helpful suggestions for improving the screening and hiring processes. Thirteen faculty members with screening committee experience responded to a questionnaire that elicited information on number of times served, perception of the committee's importance and factors influencing its role, awareness and understanding of the district's affirmative action policy, views on the affirmative action officer's role, instances when the committee's choice had been disregarded, views on affirmative action orientation and future role, and recommendations for procedure changes in screening and/or hiring. Contrary to expectations faculty saw the committee as very important; they…

Lewiski, Raymond L. Public Policy Concerning the Use of Tests. The article identifies major events that have impacted on public policy toward testing during the last 20 years. Events were classified, and an interpretation of the interrelationship of events was made. Events were classified as stemming from writings of individual authors, publications of professional organizations, and actions taken by the Legislative, Executive and Judicial Branches of government. The publications of the professional organizations and actions taken by the three branches of government were described in detail. The writings of individual writers were acknowledged but not described. The major concerns of the initiators of events were identified as follows: (a) problems generated by the use of tests for making employment decisions, (b) problems of interpretation generated by semantic differences between the psychological and legal disciplines, (c) problems associated with and resulting from the impact of accountability on the test developer and user. A noticable… [PDF]

Yinger, John (1975). An Analysis of Discrimination by Real Estate Brokers. This paper focuses on designing policies to eliminate discrimination in the sale of single-family houses by analyzing the behavior of the agents who actually do most of the discriminating, namely real estate agents. Discriminatory practices are said to be supported by policies of house builders, lending institutions, and government, and by the prejudice of the white majority. The paper analyzes the racial beliefs and practices of real estate brokers in an attempt to understand the economic incentives that lead brokers to discriminate against blacks. It is argued that a broker's job consists of three steps: (1) attracting customers, (2) matching customers with listings, and (3) finding financing for 'matched' customers. It is then shown that at each of these steps the structure of the real estate industry interacts with the racial prejudice of the white community and of brokers to give each broker economic incentives to discriminate against blacks. The techniques used by brokers to… [PDF]

Yinger, John (1975). A Model of Discrimination by Landlords. One crucial step toward an understanding of discrimination against blacks in rental housing is a careful analysis of the landlord's economic incentives. Such analysis does not exist in the literature. This paper develops a model of landlord behavior under perfect competition when both black and white tenants have racial prejudice. This model provides considerable support for open housing legislation and some insight into the design of such legislation. According to this exclusion model, open housing can help eliminate restrictions on the supply of housing available to blacks and reduce the differential between black and white rentals. Open housing will not lead to integration in individual apartment buildings, but this result is due to the prejudice of blacks and whites, not to any deficiency in the open housing approach to discrimination in housing. Furthermore, the exclusion model indicates that open housing will not be a financial disaster for landlords, and that it will not… [PDF]

Carpenter, L. P.; Rank, Dinah (1968). The Treatment of Minorities: A Survey of Textbooks Used in Missouri High Schools. Fifty of the most frequently used social studies textbooks in Missouri are evaluated. The focus of the textbook evaluations is the handling of racial minorities, especially the American Negro. Criteria are outlined for adequate textbook coverage of prejudice, discrimination, and minority groups in the areas of American history and government, world history, and geography. It is felt that inadequate and biased attention has been given to immigration, slavery, resistance to slavery, Reconstruction, segregation, black self awareness and protest, the discrepancies between American ideals and discrimination, non-Western cultures, and the phenomenon of race as a biological and cultural variable. The use of supplementary audio visual materials, and teacher self examination of personal attitudes toward race and knowledge of minority groups in America are recommended. Books about racial minorities for teacher reference are listed. [Appendix III, containing copyrighted reprints of newspaper… [PDF]
