Professional Pharmacy Fraternities as a Mechanism for Cocurricular Learning: A Qualitative Analysis of Two Organizations

ObjectiveProfessional pharmacy fraternal organizations are among the most common student organizations in schools and colleges of pharmacy and are present on 98% of campuses. However, sparse literature explores the educational value these organizations offer. The purpose of this review is to explore the alignment of national requirements of 2 major pharmacy fraternities with cocurricular learning objectives. MethodsAll 4 fraternal pharmacy organizations recognized by the Professional Fraternal Association were invited to collaborate on this project. Ultimately, 2 fraternities participated by gathering national office requirements for reports and activities for collegiate chapters. Qualitative review of fraternity requirements was conducted via manifest content analysis by 2 independent reviewers, and items were coded to the relevant cocurricular domain(s) from the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education Standards 2016; disagreements were resolved by a third author. ResultsA total of 50 fraternity requirements were identified and mapped to 1 or more cocurricular domains, for a total of 63 codings. All 6 cocurricular domains were coded at least once. The most common codings were professionalism and leadership. Significant overlap existed in requirements that encompassed professionalism plus cultural sensitivity, professionalism plus self-awareness, and self-awareness plus leadership. Some activities benefited the school or community, whereas others solely contributed to individual member professional development. ConclusionProfessional pharmacy fraternities provide ample cocurricular learning opportunities among the breadth of affective domains. The mission and vision of these organizations foster affective domain skill development in school- and community-facing events, as well as dedicated individual professional development.

Einige Fragen der Kirchenverwaltung des mittelalterlichen ungarischen Königtums

The study deals with four problems of medieval Hungarian church law and church history. Firstly, it describes the debates surrounding the formation and status of the archbishopric of Kalocsa, emphasising the missionary nature of the early archbishopric; secondly, it discusses the relationship between archdeaconries associated with a provostship and collegiate chapters, stressing the primacy of archdeaconries; thirdly, it examines the question of the Eigenbistümer in Hungary, agreeing with the view that the bishopric of Nitra was initially such a church. In the fourth place, it interprets a sentence of a fourteenth-century Hungarian chronicle, stating that Gregory of Bicske, the elected Archbishop of Esztergom (1298–1303), was only the governor (procurator seu administrator) of the Archbishopric of Esztergom.

The Collegiate Chapter of Arad

This study examines the early development of the function as place of authentication in the case of the collegiate chapter of Arad from the first issued diploma (1229) to the death of King Charles I. Although earlier historiography examined some of the important places of authentication (e.g., Pécs, Csanád), in casé of Arad, only oné historian, Kálmán Juhász analyséd oné hundréd yéars ago the first charters and the authentication function. The study will present the historiography some aspects about charter issuing, the flow of information between medium regni (Buda, Viségrád) and Arad. I have also collected the contributors related to the place of authentication (dignitaries, canons and choir priests). In Appendix, I have published the list of the diplomas issued by the collegiate chapter of Arad with the main details between 1229 and 1342.

Az esztergomi Szent Tamás-prépostság története a 14. század közepéig

The study presents the history of the Becket St. Thomas Collegiate Chapter of Esztergom, founded at the end of the 12th century, up to the middle of the 14th century, the activities of its provosts and canons and their income. It begins briefly with a discussion of the development of the secular provostries of episcopal sees in Europe, and then presents a brief history of the other two collegiate chapters in Esztergom.

Marta Rzepecka: Archiwum kapituły i parafii Opatów

The aim of the following article is to present and analyse the collection of the Chapter and Parish Archive in Opatów. The Opatów chapter, existing for over eight centuries, is one of the oldest Polish collegiate chapters. The canons of Opatów produced a great number of records, which constitute an important source for the regional history. Unfortunately, through the centuries the documents of this archive have been depleted due to numerous wars, partitions, church fires and because of borrowing of these documents.The author concentrates on the archival sources ffom the Chapter and Parish Archive in Opatów. Among others, there are statutes and detailed reports of the Opatów chapter meetings ffom the years 1762-1822 and 1848-1972, original documents issued for the chapter and its church sińce the 16® century, the records of the bishops of Sandomierz, consistory’s and diocesan curia’s correspondence, inventories of a church property and benefices of St Marcin Church in Opatów.

Opatija sv. Jakova u Opatiji

The author delivers a general history of the Abbey of St James, from its beginnings in the Middle Ages up to contemporary times. Based on the information from the relevant historiographical literature, the author emphasizes discussion about the time and reasons when Benedictines have left the Abbey, as well as the importance of Augustinians in the period between the mid-sixteenth and mid-eighteenth centuries. Analysis of the relevant literature and archival unpublished sources enabled the author to propose answers to some up-to-now unanswered questions regarding the history of the Abbey after which is named Town of Opatija. From the eighteenth century, this Abbey was organizationally subjected to the Jesuit College in Rijeka, and later to the archdeacon of Collegiate Chapter at Rijeka. After the Diocese of Rijeka was founded the title of the abbot of St James became a part of the title of the Bishop of Rijeka.

Diecezja poznańska u schyłku Rzeczypospolitej Obojga Narodów

In the investigated period of the years 1768–1793, the Poznań diocese belonged to the Gniezno metropolitan area and comprised the territory of more than 28 000 square kilometers, divided into two parts — Great Poland and Masovia. Poznań bishops resided mainly in Warsaw, in the Masovian part. The diocesan office in the years 1768–1780 was held by Andrew Stanislaus Młodziejowski and in the years 1780–1793 by Anthony Onuphrius Okęcki, both involved in state issues, includ- ing the post of crown chancellors. Pontifical duties were performer mainly by bishops suffragan, while the diocese was managed by general curates. The cathedral chapter in Poznań, constituted by 10 prelates and 23 canons, was the elite of the clergy. In addition to that, there were other bodies of clergy like curates, penitentiaries, two missionary colleges, rorantists and altarists. Collegiate chapters existed in three churches in Poznań, as well as in Warsaw, Środa Wielkopolska (Great Po- land), Szamotuły and Czarnków. The area of the diocese was divided in to four archdeaconships — Poznań, Śrem, Pszczew and Warsaw — each divided into deaconships, amounting to the number of twenty nine. Within the territory of the diocese there were 466 parish churches and a significant number of churches and chapels of various character, with an abundance of priests. The clergymen derived mainly from the townspeople, and delegates of the bishop visiting the parishes positively assessed their moral conduct. In 1772 there were 78 male monasteries with 1549 monks and 17 female monasteries in the whole diocese.

Ślady obecności kupców ormiańskich w Łowiczu oraz ormiańskie epizody w historii religijnej tego miasta w XVII i XVIII wieku

Traces of the Presence of Armenian Merchants in Łowicz and Armenian Episodes in the Religious History of This City in the 17th and 18th CenturiesIn the 17th and the 18th century in Łowicz Armenians were mostly tradesmen, particularly associated with the St Mathhew fair (on 10th October). Two Armenian families decided to settle in Łowicz: the Augustynowicz family (originally from Lwów) and the Faruchowicz family (from Jazłowiec). Also, in the 18th century four Roman Catholic priests of Armenian origin worked as canons at Łowicz collegiate chapter: Jan Nepomucen Awedyk, Mikołaj Jaśkiewicz, Franciszek Nikorowicz and Grzegorz Zachariasiewicz.

Goodwill without Guidance: College Student Outreach Practitioner Training

Chemistry-specific informal science education (chemistry outreach) is widely practiced across all levels of the chemistry community. College students associated with American Chemical Society and Alpha Chi Sigma collegiate chapters are one population of chemistry outreach practitioners who reach upward of 1 million people every year. Previous studies of this population have characterized their goals/purposes for conducting outreach, their understanding of the chemistry content underlying common demonstrations/activities, as well as their teaching and learning beliefs that they bring to their outreach teaching. The study reported herein provides another characterization of this population’s chemistry outreach practices by focusing on the training experiences they receive prior to facilitating events. Using a combination of inductive and deductive approaches, training experiences and perceived gaps in training are characterized and compared to stages of the Cognitive Apprenticeship Theory. Results indicate ...

College Students Teaching Chemistry through Outreach: Conceptual Understanding of the Elephant Toothpaste Reaction and Making Liquid Nitrogen Ice Cream

Informal chemistry education/chemistry outreach is ubiquitous with the chemical enterprise. However, little research has focused on the planning, implementation, or evaluation of these events. Results from a previous study suggest that college students involved with collegiate chapters of the American Chemical Society and Alpha Chi Sigma are heavily involved with chemistry outreach, and their most frequently discussed purpose is to teach chemistry content to their audiences. Given this goal, it is timely to investigate how well these college students, who are acting as teachers in outreach environments, understand the chemistry content embedded in the activities they implement during their events. Presented in this paper are the results of a content analysis of semi-structured interviews (N = 37) focused specifically on student understanding of the elephant toothpaste reaction and making liquid nitrogen ice cream at a general chemistry level. Results show prevalent misunderstandings and misconceptions of ...

Iconographic changes of ecclesiastic seals in the medieval Hungarian Kingdom (illustrated by the example of Spis chapter provosts)

The study deals with the evolution of great seals used by provosts of the St. Martin?s Spis Collegiate Chapter in the medieval Hungarian Kingdom. A seal image used to be an important part of seals. From the iconographic point of view the most interesting are seals of clerical institutions and dignitaries. These items, containing a large number of depicted motifs, became an important source of research in the area of medieval iconography, hagiography, heraldry and the history of art in general. The study introduces the evolution and metamorphoses of motifs as they appeared on Spis provosts? seals during the thirteenth-fifteenth centuries.

Két sírkápolna a történelmi Veszprémi Egyházmegyében: Békás és Szőlőskislak – Ybl Miklós és Ágoston József Művei

The research was triggered off by the documentation of the building history of the mausoleum of the Brüll family in the neolog Jewish cemetery in Kozma street, Budapest. The revived antique, in ante temple style mausoleum erected over a crypt was completed in 1902 as the joint work of architect Kálmán Gerster and sculptor Alajos Stróbl. The interior of the cell is adorned with a fine floral mosaic composition (cartoon by Ferenc Lohr). At Békás in Veszprém county the sepulchral monument of the founder of the Society of Hungarian Engineers and Architects was unveiled in the Békássy–Hollán mausoleum in 1903. The periodical Művészet reported that the frescoes were painted by Dezső Kölber after cartoons by Károly Lotz. Documents in the Archives of the Veszprém Archiepiscopacy and Collegiate Chapter reveal that the chapel built in revival gothic style was consecrated on the day of the Sacred Name of the Virgin, on 12 September 1869, so that masses could be celebrated for the salvation of the departed souls. The church demanded that the builders provide guarantees for the survival of the chapel “until the end of time”. The architect’s name is not put down, but the article of 1903 expressly names Ybl as the planner of the funerary chapel, which has not been listed in his oeuvre so far. During an assessment of art historical values we came across the ruins of the Ágoston–Kacskovics family’s mausoleum on the edge of Balatonboglár, in Szőlőskislak. Until 1993 the diocese of Veszprém also included Somogy County. The remains of the archaizing building displays several remarkable elements. One is the set of wall-lining bricks stamped with the initials LNJ, which are undoubtedly from the brick-yard of the architect Ödön Lechner’s family in Kőbánya. The other is a glazed, ribbed-surface ornamental brick type arranged around the red triangular limestone symbolizing the eye of God in the pediment. Earlier, this brick type was known on the St. Ladislaus church in Kőbánya and the façades of the Museum of Applied Arts (1896) both planned by Lechner. The floor pavers – produced by Wienerberger – were acquired in Vienna. It is again the obligation for maintenance in good condition that accounts for ample documents kept in the Archiepiscopal Library, which reveal that the crypt was consecrated in 1883, the chapel in 1884, on the feast day of Saint Ignatius Loyola. The erection of the chapel might have been related in connection with the re-burial here of landowner Ignácz Kacskovics, lord lieutenant of the county (and maybe with the change of the manorial centre). The use of the Lechner “design” bricks here precedes the well-known examples by a decade. The building was designed by József Áoston of Kisjóka, who qualified as an engineer from the Technical University of Budapest in 1875. In the central cemetery of Pécs there are two similar historicizing family mausoleums close to each other. The classicizing monuments also displaying motifs of the Jugendstil were built in 1909 (and later?) from the terracotta elements of the Zsolnay Factory of Pécs. The mausoleum of the Nagy family who played an important role in the life of the city is still privately owned. The other one underwent a strange metamorphosis in 1963, as it was not redeemed again. The party committee of the city decided to convert it into a labour movement pantheon, and had the cross surrounded by palm branches in the pediment replaced by the red star. (The classicist character suited the socialist realist ideal of the fifties.) Their conservation in their current form is justified.

Characterizing the Landscape: Collegiate Organizations’ Chemistry Outreach Practices

Little scholarly investigation of chemistry outreach carried out by undergraduate students in schools and communities has occurred despite widespread practice and monetary investment by large national and international organizations. This study provides the first investigation of these fairly uncharted waters by characterizing expected outcomes of outreach events, the types of activities and chemistry content widely practiced, and how outreach practitioners evaluate the success of events. Results from an open-ended survey deployed nationally to college students and faculty/staff members involved with collegiate chapters of the American Chemical Society and Alpha Chi Sigma are presented. Students and faculty/staff members reported that the most prevalent purposes of chemistry outreach are learning and having fun as a result of attending events, and that events typically involve demonstrations using liquid nitrogen, making slime, and the elephant toothpaste reaction. Differences between students and faculty/staff members are also presented as well as potential future investigations of chemistry outreach practices, which are needed to fully understand this unique chemistry teaching and learning environment.

Antiochiai Szent Margit legkorábbi magyarországi kultusza

The present study focuses on the appearance of the cult of Saint Margaret of Antioch in medievalHungary. Duke Álmos, the brother of King Coloman (1095–1116), founded a monastery at Meszesand a collegiate chapter at Dömös in honour of the saint. Earlier literature has argued that the cultof Saint Margaret already existed in the eleventh century, and used this to explain the church foundationsof Duke Álmos, even though analysis of the sources revealed that the veneration of SaintMargaret cannot be proved before the very end of the eleventh century. The name of the saint mighthave been known to clerics earlier, but the first trace of her veneration in Hungary is the foundationsof Duke Álmos. The monastery of Meszes likely was located in his duchy, and thus Álmosmust have founded it before King Coloman stripped him of his duchy. This means that he mostlikely founded it at the very end of the eleventh century. Then Álmos founded a collegiate chapterdedicated to St Margaret in Dömös, the centre of his new territory. The chapter was consecrated in1108, and thus construction started in the first years of the twelfth century. Imre Orbán argued thatÁlmos chose Saint Margaret as patron saint because the legend of the saint (i.e. Margaret defeatingthe dragon) symbolized his struggle against the incompetent ruler (Coloman). This idea might havebeen inspired from the Chronicon Pictum, which describes Coloman as malformed, though that partof the chronicle is not reliable. Moreover, the legend of Margaret centres upon the confrontationof Christianity with Paganism, rather than her fight with the dragon. While exploring those topics,the present study sheds light on the provenience and the dating of the Saint Margaret Sacramentary,the earliest liturgical book of Hungary. The codex was certainly made for a Benedictine monasterywhich was dedicated to Margaret. The Hungarian dynastic saints’ cults stand out in the codex whichmight connect it to the royal family. Consequently, the Sacrament perhaps was made for the Benedictinesof Meszes, but eventually was used in the chapter of Dömös.

Factors Impacting Members Decisions to Continue FFA Beyond High School

The purpose of this study was to determine the factors influencing FFA members to continue their FFA experience beyond high school. Two focus groups were conducted, one for collegiate FFA members and one for past/current state officers. Participants provided several areas of improvement for collegiate and alumni FFA membership. Participants noted a lack of advertising from the FFA during high school regarding opportunities for involvement after high school, stated their advisor played an influential role in deciding to continue with FFA, and expressed FFA needed to put forth greater efforts into career building opportunities for collegiate members. Also, participants noted factors such as the desire to give back, safe environment, opportunities to learn about agriculture, and the “FFA Family” as reasons for continuing involvement. State officer participants gave additional insights to why they continued with FFA, including helping members overcome barriers and wanting to serve others. To increase membership beyond high school, we recommend professional development to help advisors promote FFA, evaluation on advertising efforts and increasing advertisements, develop program guidelines outlining how collegiate chapters can accomplish their mission and host events aimed at personal development, and publish best practices on leading a successful alumni chapter.

Staying in Tune With Music Education

A nationwide sample of undergraduate music education majors ( N = 260; 69% completion rate) completed an electronic survey to determine awareness of music and general education policy and advocacy efforts. Students reported concern with the impact of policy on school music programs and their future careers. They were informed about music education policy issues at the state level but less so at national and local levels. Although respondents indicated involvement with professional associations, they rarely or never participated in policy initiatives. Methods courses provided policy information; professional organizations effectively convey policy information to undergraduates. NAfME Collegiate chapters offer music and general education policy-based activities, though many respondents were uninformed of their chapters’ efforts. Students were unfamiliar with key buzzwords, people, and acronyms of present-day education policy. Involving students in educational policy endeavors will equip them with a knowledge base from which to speak and act, securing the future of music education.

The Romance Population in the Medieval Kingdom of Hungary

Medieval kingdom of Hungary was since its very begining founded on the basis of multiethnicity and openness to foreigners. Foreigners in Hungary, especially in the 11th and 12th century came from Western Europe. Great immigration waves of the romance population are documented mostly during the reign of king Géza II (1141 – 1162), when they managed to settle in peripheral regions of the country and increase the population and significance of weakly populated regions. Foreigners in the 12th recieved privileged status as the „guests“. In the 11th and 12th century these guests have settled in Srem, Spiš, Transylvania and Tokaj. Some information about Srem region are provided by crusades chronicles. In Srem there was a village called Francavilla, which belonged to the oldest and most important romanesque settlement in Hungary. The Guests in Transylvania had their own church organization and there were several bishops of Transylvania and Bihar/Oradea of western european origin. Other regions with Romanesque population – Spiš and Tokaj laid on international routes. The collegiate chapter of Spiš even owned vineyards in Tokaj – in Sárospátak, one of the oldest Hungarian cities with privileges. A large number of documented pilgrimage passing through Hungary could also stand behind the increase of new romance population in the country. Additional aspect of the Crusades was the creation of religious orders, the Knights Templar and the Hospitallers, who just few decades after their formation appeared in Hungary and were engaged in the life of Hungarian kingdom. The romance population appeared in Hungary already in 11th century, but the massively in 12th century, and was engaged in different spheres of political, religious, cultural and economic life of Hungary in the High Middle Ages, whether as wine producers, merchants or the dignitaries of church and also military orders. Tracking the development of romance population, however, calls for a broad research sources and all aspects of medieval life, taking into account the specificities of Hungary and its regions.

Archidiakonat uniejowski w okresie staropolskim

This paper addresses selected issues relating to Uniejów archdeaconry in the Old Polish period. The town of Uniejów was the central place – a seat of the archdeaconry, decanate and, most importantly, the collegiate chapter comprising 4 prelacies and 6 canonries, and the requisite number of curacies. The vice-provost was also the village vicar, and the vicearchdeacon was the town vicar. The collegiate church ran a school and fraternities. In the town there also were: church and hospital of Holy Spirit, Oratories of St. Nicolaus, Corpus Christi, St. Adalbert, and St. Anthony the Abbot. The nearby town of Sieradz with its chapter also was one of the main archdeaconry centers. The Uniejów archdeaconry77 was a part of Gniezno archdiocese, and most probably was formed as a result of administrative reforms carried out by archbishop Jakub Świnka. In our times it was devided into four, next five and finally into six decanates comprising between 86 and 106 parishes. The Uniejów chapter was reactivated in 1990.
