While extensive research has been conducted examining the college choice process of undergraduate students, little empirical research has been conducted on the relative factors affecting the law school choice of prospective African-American students, not only in Texas, but also nationwide. By developing a college choice model for African-American students considering legal education, this study will assist researchers and law school administrators in understanding the importance of these factors in the decision-making process. For example, how influential are (1) minority faculty role models and mentors; (2) financial aid; (3) assurance of employment after graduation; (4) supportive on-campus and off-campus organizations; and (5) scholarships in the law school selection process of African-Americans? The study was designed to survey prospective African-American students enrolled in Texas law schools during the 2004-2005 and 2005-2006 academic years. Of the nine law schools located in the state of Texas, four private law schools, three public law schools and one historically Black law school chose to participate.

People in developed countries spend the majority of their time indoors. Therefore, studying the effect of outdoor air quality on indoor air is of great importance to human health. This book presents several computer models that can be used to study this effect, analysis methods using these models, as well as measurement techniques and control strategies. Use of these tools is demonstrated using buildings in Fairbanks, Alaska, and pollutants of concern in this area - carbon monoxide, fine particulate matter, and radon. The results are presented together with the summary of findings by others in different geographic regions. The core of this book is four peer-reviewed articles that were accepted for publication in various journals, plus supplemental material. This compilation of the work of these authors into a cohesive package represents suitable reading for students, researchers, housing specialists, and other individuals who want to learn about the effect of outdoor air quality on indoor air, about methods to study this effect, and about possibilities to enhance indoor air quality via reducing the indoor levels of pollutants of outdoor origin.
