Communication Branches Out: Developing Interpersonal Skills Through Genealogical Research, Julian Costa, Gary Snyder
Communication Branches Out: Developing Interpersonal Skills Through Genealogical Research, Julian Costa, Gary Snyder
Proceedings of the New York State Communication Association
Communication students of the twenty-first century must not only be able to interact in multiple formats but be able to express their ideas across varied platforms. A common deterrent faced by students conducting research is the lack of applicability of the subject matter to their lives. The integration of genealogical research can address this issue because it allows students to learn about, and celebrate, their family history. While engaged in such a pursuit, students will develop core communication skills, such as speaking and listening, online research, and message design.
Only The Universe Really Knows, Hannah Defeo
Only The Universe Really Knows, Hannah Defeo
Campus Poetry Walk
Hi! I'm Hannah DeFeo. I am a freshman Legal Studies and Creative Writing major, with a minor in Political Science. Ever since I was able to write, I have always had a passion for poetry. Most of the poetry I write is about the people I love and the places I've been, but I have only recently become passionate about sharing my poetry with others. One day, I hope to publish my work and share my words and personal narratives with anybody who feels inspired by them.
Kind Is A Folding Chair, Amanda Walsh

Event Horizon, Adrienne Wooster
Campus Poetry Walk
I am a Providence-based artist, writer, and Roger Williams University graduate. In my work I try to embrace what William Wordsworth calls “the light of common day” — It’s impossible to make it through life unscathed or undistracted by the rush of daily obligations, insecurities and aspirations. Yet, in the quieter hours, I find myself thinking about how we are only here, in ourselves, this space, this moment, so briefly — it is, indeed, all we ever have until we go wherever it is we go next. But, until then, I’d like to live everything — to hear the bass …

I'm in my third year at Roger Williams as a Creative Writing major. I participated in the poetry walk last year and I'm so excited that the event is returning! I wrote this poem for my incredible mother, who's raised four kids with the most beautiful love and perseverance. If she isn't the definition of kindness and generosity, I don't know what is!

I'm no poet, although I aspire to be one. I'm just a non-traditional student who has benefited from acts of kindness by a great many new law school friends. Someone as fortunate as I am finds it quite easy to write about kindness.

I am currently a senior studying Forensics Science and minoring in Creative Writing. I have recently tried to become more involved with my writing and put more effort into it. I've come to appreciate poetry much more than I used to, and I'm trying to open myself up to more writing styles. I love sharing my poetry with anyone who will read it, even if they don't appreciate it the same way I do.

I'm a 2L at the School of Law. Making an impact in the legal realities of sex-trafficking is my ultimate aim in earning a JD. When I’m trying to avoid studying, you’ll most likely find me in the garden, open water swimming, reading, seeking out edifying/sharpening conversations & trying to enlist more snail mail pals.

Entering The Metaverse: Considering The Implications Of A Journey Into A Virtual World For Nysca At 80 Years, John Pavlik
Entering The Metaverse: Considering The Implications Of A Journey Into A Virtual World For Nysca At 80 Years, John Pavlik
Proceedings of the New York State Communication Association
Meta’s Horizon Worlds is among the first Metaverse platforms. Through a digital ethnography, this paper examines the contours of Horizon Worlds. Drawing upon affordances theory, the paper considers the affordances of Horizon Worlds Metaverse within the context of the user experience. Findings suggest that storytelling is central to the nature of the meaning generated inside Horizon Worlds and perhaps the Metaverse in general. But it is not storytelling in a conventional sense. Stories inside the Metaverse are not linear and there is no plot. Metaverse stories do have characters, and they travel pathways and engage in activities and sequential events, …

Unpacking The Forgotten Truth: Reestablishing Affirmative Action With Hispanic-Serving Institutions And The Military Equal Opportunity Program For Hispanics, Isabelle Rosado
Modern Languages, Philosophy and Classics Theses
Affirmative Action combats discrimination amongst individuals on the basis of race, creed, color, sex, or national origin and falls under the 14th Amendment. Race has been a leading result of the reevaluation of Affirmative Action programs. Furthermore, the United States Military is an organization that also advocates for racial equality but is seldom discussed. Claims of reverse racism and privilege shield the primary purpose of Affirmative Action. Discredited opinions engulf young minds in the never-ending social conflict of racial equality. This problem continues to be unsolved which divides Americans. The increase of Hispanics/Latinxs in the U.S. forces the analysis of …

I have spent my life living in the New England area, but that is not the only space I consider home. As a writer, I spend a lot of time living amongst my thoughts, making my headspace one of the other places I consider home. I believe that a space is not just a location, but a state of mind that can make any space, even ones that may not be obvious right away.
