After the observations, the instructors completed an interview, and the students completed an online questionnaire. This study found that native instructors use less English than non-native instructors and the …
Before Disaster Strikes: An Analysis Of Emergency Management Planning, Reagan Moody
Before Disaster Strikes: An Analysis Of Emergency Management Planning, Reagan Moody
Honors Theses
I have always been inspired by the outpouring number of volunteers that arrive to the scene of a natural disaster, ready to help in any way possible. With or without adequate training, these people arrive with warm hearts and helping hands. I admire their valiant efforts, however, it has prompted me to ask the question: If our citizens can respond so quickly in times of adversity, how are city governments preparing spontaneous volunteers for emergency management planning? The intent of this thesis is to properly evaluate the emergency management plans implemented in the cities of Baton Rouge, LA, Spokane, WA, …
When Words Are Not Enough: The Development Of Human Trafficking In Venezuela Under The Maduro Administration, Holly Prather
When Words Are Not Enough: The Development Of Human Trafficking In Venezuela Under The Maduro Administration, Holly Prather
Honors Theses
This thesis discusses the role the Maduro administration has played in the development of human trafficking in Venezuela. It does so by employing a qualitative analysis of primary sources such as governmental and NGO reports to determine the links between the Maduro administration and the increase of human trafficking. I argue that the Maduro administration has chosen to employ social policy, the Misiones (Misiones), as the state’s approach to human trafficking instead of enforcing anti-trafficking laws. This, in conjunction with unsound economic policy in response to the 2014 decline in oil prices, gives the Maduro administration a substantial role in …
Generational Expressions Of Basque Nationalism, Mollie Bradford
Generational Expressions Of Basque Nationalism, Mollie Bradford
Honors Theses
This work studies the difference in the expressions of Basque nationalism between the Basque youth and the older generations of the Basque population in the Basque Country of Spain, or Euskadi. I hypothesized that the Basque youth would express nationalism banally, or in everyday activities, while the older generations would be intentional and active in their expressions, due to the older generations’ experiences with the Franco regime and ETA, the Basque terrorist group. I researched using articles from a Basque newspaper, Euskal Irrati Telebista. I chose key words and searched through articles written in 2017. I also conducted a survey …

Los Ritmos Latinoamericanos Como Estrategia De Resistencia En La Ópera La Ruta De Su Evasión (2017) De Abya Yala Y Carlos Castro, Pamela Zamora Quesada
Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports
In this Master’s thesis I examine the most recent Costa Rican opera The Path of Avoidance (2017), produced by the Cultural Association for Performing Arts Abya Yala, directed by Roxana Ávila and composed by Carlos Castro, based on the homonymous novel of Yolanda Oreamuno (1948).Through a semiotic analysis, I will discuss how the innovative manner of incorporating Latin American rhythms such as salsa, bolero, vals criollo, bossa nova and tango is a musical strategy which promotes a problematization of the gender dominant discourse and patriarchal context. Simultaneously, these rhythms offer a way of resistance on the direct or psychological violence …

Precariedad En La Pantalla: El Género Fílmico De La Crisis Española, Lauren M. Grant
Precariedad En La Pantalla: El Género Fílmico De La Crisis Española, Lauren M. Grant
Honors Theses
La crisis económica española (2008—Presente) impactó España con mucha fuerza, dejando a mucha gente en estados de precariedad y vulnerabilidad. Estas experiencias de la crisis se reflejan en cine de crisis español, lo que frecuentemente pone a los protagonistas en situaciones de precariedad física que representan metafóricamente las realidades de la crisis. Además, el cine de crisis puede tener aplicaciones activistas a través de animar a la gente de tomar acción contra la corrupción política y desigualdad económica. Esta tesis analiza tres películas españolas de distintos géneros fílmicos que son ejemplos del cine de crisis: Los amantes pasajeros (Almodóvar, 2013), …
