The Self-Determined Doctorate : Perspectives on Leading the Doctoral Journey /
:
The Self-Determined Doctorate presents narratives of doctoral students who enriched their journeys by taking charge. The authors - who studied in the United States, Sweden, and Australia - reflect on their transformative personal and professional journeys wherein they cultivated experiences of autonomy, competence, and relatedness. Through boundless community support from sources beyond the academy and efforts to deepen relationships with peers and faculty, these doctoral students navigated uncertainty and ambiguity in their academic and personal lives as they worked to attain their degrees. In the process, they developed increased confidence in their subject expertise and their professional perspectives, leading to fruitful outcomes. Contributors are: Walter Butler, Ulrika Centerwall, Lettie Y. Conrad, Mark M. Diacopoulos, Kristen H. Gregory, Kara Kaufman, Karen F. Kaufmann, Clarence Maybee and Virginia M. Tucker.

Hakol Kol Yaakov : The Joel Roth Jubilee Volume /
:
Hakol Kol Yaakov: The Joel Roth Jubilee Volume contains twenty articles dedicated to Rabbi Joel Roth, written by colleagues and students. Some are academic articles in the general area of Talmud and Rabbinics, while others are rabbinic responsa that treat an issue of contemporary Jewish law. In his career, Joel Roth has been known as a scholar and teacher of Talmud par excellence, and, without question, as the preeminent decisor of Jewish law for the Conservative movement of his generation. In the meticulous style and approach of the Talmud scholarship of his generation, Roth painstakingly and precisely assayed the vast array of rabbinic legal sources, and proceeded to apply these in pedagogy, in scholarship and particularly in the production of contemporary legal responsa. The articles in this volume reflect the unique and integrated voice and vision that Joel Roth has brought to the American Jewish community.
