Love and Terror
"I've always enjoyed Dorothy Weil's novels with their salty depictions of midwestern life. LOVE AND TERROR is Weil's best to date, gritty, suspenseful, humorous and wise." --Stephen Birmingham, author of OUR CROWD and over twenty best-selling novels and social histories. "In LOVE AND TERROR a family battles with illness, war, and tumultous cultural changes. Every reader will recognize incidents and attitudes in their own lives. The novel is infused with sharp insight, sharp repartee, sharp humor, and beautifully developed characters. Read it! You will be reminded and rewarded in ways you never contemplated." --Ceil Cleveland, author of WHATEVER HAPPENED TO JACY FARROW? THE BLUEBOOK SOLUTION and SHORT STORIES UNZIPPED. Founding editor of COLUMBIA MAGAZINE.
The Path to the Ph.D.
There is a growing concern among educators and policymakers about the level of attrition from Ph.D. programs in the sciences and humanities at some U.S. universities. Reliable estimates of graduate student attrition are difficult to obtain, however, because most information comes from the administrative records of individual institutions. This book provides a summary of datasets that could be used to analyze patterns of graduate student attrition and degree completion nationally, along with an analysis of recent studies on the subject. Based on this information, the committee examines the feasibility of designing a system to produce national estimates of graduate student attrition.

After being reared in Chautauqua County, New York, John Lewis Benson's father, William, took him to Rock Island County, Illinois, following his daughters who had already made the migration.
