The history and family lineage of 2nd Lieutenant Wright Wall of South Carolina in the American Revolution has been an enigma to his descendants and genealogists. After more than eight years of research, the author addresses a number of questions about the lieutenant: - Who exactly was 2nd Lieutenant Wright Wall? - When was Lieutenant Wright Wall born? - Did Lieutenant Wright Wall have a father also named Wright? (In other words, was Lieutenant Wright Wall "Junior"?) - Whom did the American Revolutionary Lieutenant Wright Wall marry? - What were the relations between the South Carolina and Alabama Wright Walls? - Did Lieutenant Wright Wall, after going to the Mississippi Territory in 1810, remain in Mississippi or Alabama or did he return home to South Carolina, for burial next to his wife? The most serious question concerns the loyalty of Lieutenant Wright Wall to the American cause: Did Lieutenant Wright Wall serve as a captain in Colonel Robert Gray's Loyalist South Carolina regiment, Lower Pee Dee River Region, during parts of 1781 and 1782?

This book promotes the shared ownership of assessment planning among faculty, student affairs educators, administrators, and students. As a project of the International Center for Student Success and Institutional Accountability (ICSSIA), Assessment Reconsidered focuses on the collaborative use of all campus resources in promoting student success. Written by an ensemble of educators with broad experience in assessment theory and practice in higher education, this illuminating work helps both student affairs professionals and faculty members address internal and public questions about the functioning of postsecondary institutions by reconsidering assessment policies, patterns, and practices in colleges and universities. While the book acknowledges and responds to greater expectations for institutional accountability, its focus is on building capacity to engage in evidence-based, reflective practice and supporting educators in doing their best work.
