Reno, Stephen J. – New England Journal of Higher Education, 2009
Higher education's audience today is large, varied, and diverse in its expectations.

Small, Deborah A. – Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, 2010
Natural disasters and other traumatic events often draw a greater charitable response than do ongoing misfortunes, even those that may cause even more widespread misery, such as famine or malaria.
