Robinson said a policy passed by the university trustees would apply to them as well. "My staff is very adept at dealing with those" interactions, Robinson said, but they and the university would be better served by a policy that expressly prohibits undue influence. Utah State University Extension provides research-based programs and resources with the goal of improving the lives of individuals, families and communities throughout Utah. USU Extension operates through a cooperative agreement between the United States Department of Agriculture, Utah State University, and county governments. The university immediately called in crisis teams to provide resources to those students who needed support and counseling. "This student was very loved and very beloved by those who lived with him and those who were surrounded by him," said Aaron Cass, with the UTU student association that helped organize the vigil.

Unlike vital records and name adoption lists that document specific events, the Matrikel , another document of value to genealogists, recorded a family’s composition at a certain point in time or, sometimes, over extended periods. These lists show the old, patronymic name in one column and the new civil name in the second column. Name adoption lists from Baden were collected by the genealogist and historian Berthold Rosenthal and now are housed at the Leo Baeck Institute in New York. Name adoption lists are being transcribed by Wolfgang Fritsche and are available on the Internet at www.a-h-b.de/ AHB/links_e.htm. One paragraph is devoted to each individual specific vital event.

Has no policy prohibiting undue influence, so university employees who handle admissions and scholarships are guided by their professional ethics, he said. Robinson, addressing the university's Academic Senate earlier this week, said attempts at "undue influence" have come from state lawmakers, university donors among others, although no one is naming names. Founded in 1914 as part of the Smith-Lever Act, USU Extension plays a primary role in helping Utah State University fulfill its land-grant mission. Though more than 100 years old, USU Extension is as vital as ever, and perhaps even more so, due to the increased diversity and complexity of the issues people encounter today. The integration of teaching, research, and public service enables USU Extension to respond to critical and emerging issues with research-based, unbiased information. A further level of complexity results from the variable spelling of Jewish surnames in the first half of the 19th century.

In addition to the original registers kept by the rabbis, a second copy, kept by the local pastor of the dominant local church, commonly existed. These were copied, usually once a year, from the rabbi’s original. Many of the second copies kept by pastors still exist. Frequently, the clergy possessed superior penmanship, at least during the first half of the century.

The earliest civil records for Jews of southern Germany appear towards the end of the 18th century. Prior to this time, only tax records, property lists, and court records documented the presence of individual Jews. Jewish family books exist for the first half of the 19th century. Separate Jewish civil records were kept up to about 1876. After that time, vital records for Gentiles and Jews were kept jointly. Although most original Jewish civil records from the 19th century appear lost, microfilmed copies of many of them survived in the Leipzig and Gatermann films.
Sometimes the old and new names alliterated, but often they did not. Find rare books, photographs, manuscripts, university records, and more. The enrollment office handles undergraduate admissions while the university's graduate programs oversee their own admissions.

Altmuehlsee is according to me the most beautiful lake in the area. I visited it in winter so I can't say what is a service quality. But it seems to have everything one can need to relax on the beach or enjoy water sports. There is a bicycle path around the whole lake and marked hiking trail. Although the lake is intensively commercially used you can find there a beautiful nature and even a natural reservation. Watching them flying over the lake was a breathtaking spectacle.
Pointed steel nibs from England were introduced in 1830, which accentuated the spiky nature of the Gothic Current. In 1907, the broadheaded nib was invented, again giving the script a more prominent stroke direction. Over the years, Gothic script evolved somewhat differently in different regions. Consequently, depending on the region and the scribe, the same character may appear totally different. Officials work to stretch scholarship dollars, the university is also experiencing an uptick in attempts to influence those decisions, Robinson said.
Nineteenth-century civil records for the Jews in Southern Germany are an invaluable source of information for the serious Jewish genealogist. Despite the many variations in type, structure, and appearance of Jewish civil records in southern Germany, they also share many common features. Civil records from Pforzheim to Pfersee, in fact from Bremen to Bukowina, are both very similar and also quite different. Throughout the Middle Ages, European Jews enjoyed almost autonomous family law, set by Jewish tradition rather than the state. Fischach, Bavaria, is one example, where a family book was kept until 1942.

Sometimes a pastor would alter a Jewish-sounding given name to a more German form in his copy. Mostly, however, the column categories and their order are somewhat idiosyncratic, reflecting local customs and the record keepers’ preferences. Family and given names of the principal person and the actual date of the event always appear, but not necessarily in a consistent order.
