The demand on the part of the public for adult education stems
from four basic causes: The steady rise of the educational level,
the increasing demands of changing culture, the effects and influences
of war, and the need for human association. As a result,
public demand for adult education in...

The purpose of this study was to provide a history of the Business
Education and Secretarial Science departments at Oregon State
University. The historical-documentary method of research was
used. Extensive use was made of interviews with those involved in
the school's history. The chronology of history was divided into segments...
A combination of theoretical perspectives is used to create a rich description of student reasoning when facing a highly-geometric electricity and magnetism problem in an upper-division active-engagement physics classroom at Oregon State University. Geometric reasoning as students encounter problem situations ranging from familiar to novel is described using van Zee...
In Radio Frequency Integrated Circuits (RFIC) or high frequency digital
ICs, there is a demand to probe the internal nodes for testing. The ultra low
capacitance RFIC probe presented in his work is a flexible tool for these
applications. The probe utilizes the coupling between a tungsten needle and the...
The relative enrichment of skin sebaceous gland lipids with deuterium-labeled α-tocopherol was compared with plasma enrichment to evaluate the delivery of vitamin E to skin. For the first week of this study, each subject consumed a daily dose of deuterated vitamin E (150 mg of an equimolar mixture of RRR-α-[5-(C²H₃)]-(d₃)...
Imperfections in semiconductor materials constitute a rich area for research. The importance of the characterization of these imperfections cannot be understated. Junction spectroscopic techniques provide a unique tool for the study of these imperfections. The test specimens could consist of Schottky barrier, p-n junctions, or MOS structures. Using Schottky barrier...
The purpose of the study was to identify and examine critical factors that either promote or hinder acute care hospitals decision-making on adopting complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). All acute care hospitals in the states of Oregon and Washington were included in the study. Individual interviews were conducted at the...
This paper presents a study of the resonant transfer of energy
between filters with the viewpoint of applying this technique to
communication systems.
A summary of the existing filter designs
for this application is made.
This summary shows that a requirement
common to all these filters is that the impulse...
