| This study used a telephone survey of coordinators of local Business Retention and Expansion Programs (BR&E). The focus of the of the study was to survey BR&E coordinators who conducted programs in the last five years to better understand the factors that lead the community and the coordinator to undertake a BR&E program. We used state program leaders to identify coordinators in six participating states: Kentucky, Maine, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, and West Virginia. The states represented programs that had a similar approach to BR&E in terms of a community approach which used volunteers by design. A total of 94 Coordinators were identified, and 80 responded to the survey during the summer and fall of 1998 (85% response rate). Of... |

| This paper reviews the establishment and funding of the W. I. Myers Professorship of Agricultural Finance and the activities and accomplishments of early chair holders. Because considerable time has passed since the formation of the Chair, this record will undoubtedly be incomplete in unknown ways. William I. Myers (1891-1976) was born and reared on a dairy and tobacco farm in Chemung County, New York. He received his Ph. D. from Cornell and was appointed to the faculty in 1918. In 1920 he was the first person ever appointed full professor of agricultural finance. In 1932, during the depth of the depression, Myers was asked by Henry Morgenthau to prepare recommendations for a legislative program to solve the agricultural finance problem. His ideas were... |

Proportionally more women than men regarded partner opportunities, nondiscrimination, time for child care, and supportive colleagues as very important attributes influencing their decisions. A binomial probit of respondents’ current job sector indicates significant job choice determinants include sector preference (academic or... |

| For two decades, the Australian Agricultural Economics Society has sponsored an annual prize for Master's theses. At the Society's Annual General Meeting on 13 February 1985, the Society resolved to sponsor a biennial prize for Ph.D. theses, with the first award being made for a thesis accepted during the two-year period ending 30 September 1985. Both the Ph.D. and Master's prizes relate to theses in the field of agricultural economics accepted by an Australian or New Zealand University. For each prize, the most meritorious thesis is selected by a panel of three members appointed by the Society. |
