Pious Ambitions: Sally Merriam Wait's Mission South, 1813–1831 by Mary Tribble

Reviewed by: Pious Ambitions: Sally Merriam Wait's Mission South, 1813–1831 by Mary Tribble David T. Moon Jr. (bio) Keywords U.S. South, Missionaries, Baptist Church, Evangelicalism Pious Ambitions: Sally Merriam Wait's Mission South, 1813–1831. By Mary Tribble. (Knoxville: University of Tennessee Press, 2021. Pp. 242. Paper, $25.00. After her baptism in 1813, eighteen-year-old Sarah "Sally" Merriam of Brandon, Vermont, envisioned herself answering a call from God to serve in the jungles of Burma. Sally hoped to follow the trail blazed by missionary Harriet Atwood Newell and the famed couple Ann and Adoniram Judson, but her calling ultimately followed that of her husband's, the young Baptist preacher Samuel Wait, whom she wed in 1818. Instead of Burma, Sally settled for North Carolina where Samuel became the first president of the Wake Forest Manual Labor Institute (now Wake Forest University) in 1834. Pious Ambitions, Mary Tribble's biography of Sally Merriam Wait, reveals the winding path that brought Sally to that place. Positioning her research among other studies of evangelicalism and marriage in the early republic, Tribble chronicles the evolution of a young and fervent Baptist woman as "the power of pious ambitions" (xviii)—that is, religious duty—guided her, compelling her to either sacrifice or redefine her own aspirations to become a submissive helpmeet and matriarch of a minister's household. [End Page 484] Samuel Wait's pastoral calling first took Sally from Vermont to Sharon, Massachusetts, where he led a small Baptist congregation between 1818 and 1820, and then to Washington, DC, where he worked as a tutor for Columbian College from 1822 to 1826. Samuel's journey next brought Sally to New Bern, North Carolina, in 1827 where he served as pastor for the burgeoning port's Baptist church, and, finally, to a small community near Raleigh where he presided over Wake Forest. Marriage required Sally to temper her own ambitions and "accept the limits of a woman's role in the secular and evangelical communities" (67). Those limitations occasionally taxed Sally's body, mind, and soul. The couple spent only seven of their first thirteen married years together as Samuel's own pious ambitions drew him from home and family. Between 1820 and 1822, for example, he boarded in Philadelphia while studying at the Philadelphia Theological Seminary; without an income, Sally returned to her family in Vermont where she supported herself and her husband's education by crafting and selling bonnets with her sister. Besides financial hardships, Sally shouldered emotional trauma during Samuel's extended absences. In 1829, with Samuel itinerating in North Carolina for the state Baptist convention, Sally once again returned to Vermont where their youngest child fell ill and died. (The inability of a young minister—particularly an itinerant—to both support a household and administer his clerical duties initially caused the Methodists to discourage their preachers from marrying.)1 During these periods of isolation and separation, Sally coped by leaning on her religious convictions and resigning herself to the will of God. As Tribble iterates, Sally "had the comfort that their separation was guided by their shared duty to God" (172). Sally—a modified Calvinist—drew inspiration from Jonathan Edwards and the Bible (much of Sally's journal is an amalgamation of her own words and scripture, a significant point that Tribble does not address). Sally had to reassure herself constantly that her marriage satisfied a higher purpose, as evinced when she wrote to Samuel in 1821, "That which providence has designed for me, is for me the best" (72). Sally's acquiescence did not come easily, as she struggled to reconcile her desire to establish a stable home with the knowledge that God might require her to support her husband from afar. [End Page 485] Besides exploring the dynamics of the Wait household and Sally's interpretations of womanhood and faith, Pious Ambitions traces how the Waits's path from New England to North Carolina mirrored the social and economic progress of American Baptists in the early nineteenth century. Not long after her baptism, musings about modest Christian attire and behavior filled Sally's writings, and later, when marketing bonnets, she worried that some of...

Future Directions for Health Equity and Lifestyle Medicine: Insights from Former US Surgeons General.

Lifestyle medicine practices address root causes in the realm of patient care, healthcare systems, community health, and public health policy. It often takes consistent messaging and robust scientific evidence to buy in support of patients, health administrators, community leaders, and government officials. Four former U.S. surgeons general-the Honorable Admiral David Satcher, MD; Vice Admiral M. Joycelyn Elders, MS; Vice Admiral Antonia Novella, MD; and Vice Admiral Richard Carmona, MD, MPH, FACS-participated in a town hall during the American College of Lifestyle Medicine's 2021 annual conference to discuss health equity and its relationship to LM. Moderated by Dexter Shurney, MD, MBA, MPH, immediate-past president of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine and president of the Blue Zones Well-Being Institute, the discussion also explored the challenging role and responsibilities of the nation's top medical officer, the emergence of LM as an undervalued but high-potential tool for addressing complex issues such as health disparities, and specific actions-especially related to leadership-that would accelerate wider adoption of LM. In this article, Drs. Shurney and Carmona share their insights and highlights from the conversation and consider future directions of LM.

Designed to evolve: digital transformation the Infosys way

Purpose The interview explores the Live Enterprise model at Infosys. The idea is to enable mature companies to transform into a business with digital native agility, with many small teams innovating while leveraging shared digital infrastructure, in an environment of continuous evolution and learning. Design/methodology/approach Jeff Kavanaugh, Vice President and Global Head of Infosys Knowledge Institute, the research and thought leadership arm of Infosys, explains how the model promotes rapid experimentation through the digital runway, innovation at the edges by distributed micro-teams and extreme automation at scale for repeatable processes and functions. He and co-author Rafee Tarafdar describe the inner workings of this model in their new book “The Live Enterprise: Create a Continuously Evolving and Learning Organization”. Findings Outcomes are made possible by four capabilities: hybrid talent, a design-to-evolve mindset, a digital runway and a ‘micro is the new mega’ approach to transformational change. Practical implications Micro is the new mega because the Live Enterprise model uses frequent micro-change releases at scale in short sprints. The cumulative effect of these many small changes compounds quickly to transformational change Originality/value Essential reading for executives at mature companies who need to compete in the new digital environment. Offers such revolutionary ideas as: Employee experience (EX) is as important as customer experience (CX) in the live enterprise

Centring race in contemporary educational privatization policies: the genealogy of U.S. ‘private school choice’ and its implications for research

ABSTRACT Just ahead of the 2017 U.S. presidential inauguration the Hoover Institute convened a forum to explore policy avenues for privatizing public education. The option favoured by forum moderator and Fordham Institute President, Michael Petrilli, was the tax-credit scholarship, a policy currently employed in 18 states. Funded through donations from corporations and individuals whoreceive a tax benefit, these programs are managed through state revenue codes, not education codes. In 2019,U.S. Secretary of Education, Betsy DeVos proposed a federal private school choice program despite the fact that evaluations have struggled to demonstrate any evidence of educational benefit. This paper argues that present-day efforts to privatize public education are rooted in social, political, and economic projects that consolidate power among white Americans. Finally, the paper sketches the contours of a historical-geographic materialist research agenda that examines the implications of privatization in public education for racial justice.

СТАТИСТИКА ТА ДИНАМІКА ЗАХИСТІВ ДИСЕРТАЦІЙ ЗА НАУКОВОЮ СПЕЦІАЛЬНІСТЮ «ДЕРЖАВНА СЛУЖБА» В УКРАЇНІ

The article analyzes the features of development of academic specialty 25.00.03 “Public Service” in Ukraine. It is emphasized that such an academic specialty was formed in Ukraine in 2003. It is noted that despite this, the theses studying issues related to the scope of this specialty have been defended even before 2003. Since 2003, the number of defended theses and research study directions has been growing every year, and academic schools in the sphere of public service have been formed. The quantitative analysis of doctorate and candidate theses in specialty “Public Service” defended for 2003-2019 at the Specialized Academic Councils of the National Academy for Public Administration under the President of Ukraine and Dnipropetrovsk Regional Institute of Public Administration of the National Academy for Public Administration under the President of Ukraine was conducted. The ratio between doctorate and candidate theses is reflected, which made it possible to determine the following structure of defended theses: among 111 theses 17 doctorate and 94 candidate The dynamics of gender ratio of persons who defended theses in specialty 25.00.03 “Public Service” at the Specialized Academic Councils for Public Administration at the National Academy for Public Administration and Dnipropetrovsk Regional Institute of Public Administration of the National Academy for Public Administration was analyzed and it was revealed that a greater number of theses were defended by women (71.64%), while men defended 40 theses that is 36% of the total structure. The attention is paid to provision of scientific advice (guidance) to persons who defended their theses in specialty 25.00.03 “Public Service” at the Specialized Academic Councils for Public Administration at the National Academy for Public Administration and Dnipropetrovsk Regional Institute of Public Administration of the National Academy for Public Administration. It is emphasized that issues of civil service and activities of civil servant are studied not only within the specialty “Public Service”, but within other specialties of field of knowledge “Public Administration”, and other scientific fields. The conclusions are made and the prospects for further research studies in specialty “Public Service” are specified.

Geodesign: Applications towards Smarter Planning and Urban Design Solutions

Geodesign: Applications towards Smarter Planning and Urban Design Solutions Dr. Nadia Amoroso, Adele Pierre, Dr. Leif Olson, Grant Pearsell, Devin Lavigne Abstract As world population becomes increasingly urban (World Health Organization, 2017), the need for smart city planning becomes crucial. Cities continue to increase in size and density, and with the accompanying infrastructure of buildings, roads, transportation tunnels and subways, the amount of permeable surface that is able to absorb storm water decreases (Hunt & Watkiss, 2011). As urban densification combines with increases in storm frequency and intensity, municipalities need to find new ways of managing storm water. Solutions require collaboration across planning disciplines and input from an informed public. Geodesign approaches and technologies can assist in making wiser design decisions. Geodesign refers to geographic design or using geographic data to aid design. This design approach supports the rapid iteration and application of new planning strategies and urban design ideas by integrating the site‟s data with computer software such as a GIS (Geographic Information System). The formalization of geodesign was developed and fostered by Jack Dangermond, founder and president of the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI). ESRI is a leading global provider of GIS software technology, offering new geode sign technologies to help achieve better planning outcomes. This paper defines the concept of geode sign and demonstrates its application for achieving sustainable landscapes and cities. The paper focuses on two key projects that serve to show planners and urban designers how to make wiser design decisions based on geo-data. It reviews the project goals, methods and results to achieve data-driven design solutions using a geodesign process and technology. Full Text: PDF DOI: 10.15640/jaes.v8n2a2
