Centenary College of Louisiana is a private liberal arts college in Shreveport, Louisiana. The college is affiliated with the United Methodist Church. Founded in 1825, it is the oldest chartered liberal arts college west of the Mississippi River and is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS).
This study consisted of characterizing soil bacterial diversity via 16S V3-V4 amplicon sequencing on CCLA's campus, with a focus on analyzing samples collected near college dormitories. The data provides a sufficient starting point for us to characterize bacterial diversity both on and off campus in Northwest Louisiana.
Gold (Au) nanoparticle-decorated octahedral Cu2O was synthesized and evaluated for ozone sensing at room temperature. Different Au loadings (1, 3, 5, and 7 wt
Among the earliest literary representations of Louisiana Creole, the anonymous "Antou & egrave;ne et Fran & ccedil;o & eacute;se" stories from the satirical paper Le Carillon represent a permanent marker of an almost entirely oral language and a glimpse into the shifting understanding of race in Reconstruction New Orleans. This article seeks to revalorize the parodic use of Creole in these stories and to read into them a means of expression for Creoles of color during a period where a multiracial society was in the process of collapsing into a biracial one. These stories ultimately give Creole a literary significance that establishes it as part of the American canon.
As anyone who has blown across the mouth of a beer bottle knows, beer bottles have a well-defined fundamental frequency. This paper shows how a beer bottle's acoustical resonance can be modeled as a one-dimensional driven-damped oscillator and includes enough detail to be useful in undergraduate laboratory experiments. While the frequency-domain Green's function of the bottle can be extracted through sequential pure-tone measurements, sufficient data to fit the model's parameters can be collected in just a few seconds when Fourier methods are used.
