(1955) Hakimi (1962)). Let S = (d1 , · · · , dn ) be a finite list ofnonnegative integers that is nonincreasing. List S is graphic if and only if the finitelist S = (d2 − 1, d3 − 1, · · · , dd1 +1 − 1, dd1 +2 , · · · dn ) has nonnegative integers and isgraphic. The algorithm then follows a recursive method where the theorem is used withS = S until S = {0}. Generating Random Graphs Once we determined the classroom networks in question were graphical, we wantedto generate a random graph from the degree sequence that was likely to representthe network structure of the data. The inspiration came from a popular methodin statistics called bootstrapping. Using Havel-Hakimi Algorithm, a program waswritten in python and

materials under dynamic/fatigue loading is the “S-N”diagram. Here, “S” corresponds to the stress level and “N” to the number of cycles. Due to theuncertainties involved in materials’ behavior and characteristics, a large number of specimensare tested at different stress levels for generating the “S - log N” diagram. Ideally, the mainobjective in such tests is two-fold. First, to establish (for a given material), up to what stresslevels the material will enjoy an infinite life (Endurance Limit); and second, to correlate thenumber of cycles at different stress levels that a material will be able to go through beforecoming to failure. The range of cost for a typical educational fatigue testing apparatus is from$10,500 to $32,500. These units are

This paper reports on the first of these two questions.KBTS AS A PERSONALITY MEASURERThe KBTS uses much of the same construct as the MBTI. With the KBTS and MBTI, personalitytypes are derived from four preference scales. These dimensional scales are: Extroversion -Introversion (E-I), Sensation - Intuition (S-N) , Thinking - Feeling (T-F), and Judgment -Perception (J-P). The KBTS uses 70 questions (less than the MBTI) written to test preferenceswith respect to the four preference scales. There are sixteen unique “personality types” formedfrom the four personality preference scales (24=16). Example personality types would
