Creating An Index To Graduate Theses To Support Their Discoverability, Ellen Petraits
Transforming Libraries for Graduate Students
As a Research and Instruction Librarian, one of the most frequent questions I'm asked is how to find past theses on a particular topic or theme. There is an active thesis culture at RISD that goes beyond writing and binding a text. An exhibition is held in the graduate gallery to celebrate a curated selection of theses at the beginning of the academic year. (See Book of Thesis Books) Theses can range in format from an artist book to a loose-leaf portfolio. Many emphasize the visual and are a bridge to the student’s studio work. They may include unusual or …

Alif: Building A Bridge, Sabaoot Esho
Scholars Day Conference
The project is centered around the exploration of Arabic typography and its multi-faceted uses. Arabic calligraphy is an old practice and tradition that has been studied and refined since it was founded. Comparatively, Arabic typography is a much more recent creative study that is still developing, thus there has not been much literature that covers it. Therefore, the main goal of the project is to highlight and integrate Arabic typography with Arabic calligraphy. By doing so, the project builds a bridge within Arabic graphic design, connecting the rich Arabic calligraphy to its newer counterpart, Arabic typography.

"A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte" is an iconic painting by French artist Georges Seurat that features a group of elegantly dressed Parisians spending a leisurely Sunday afternoon on the banks of the Seine. While the painting is widely celebrated for its technical brilliance, it is also notable for the way it reflects the social norms and cultural values of 19th-century France. One such norm was the objectification and exploitation of Black women's bodies, exemplified by the tragic story of Sarah Baartman, a South African woman who was paraded across Europe as a spectacle because of …

Blim: Exploring Minimalist Design Approach On Digital Advertisements Of Snacks To Promote Effective Consumer Purchasing Decisions, Brigette L. Lu
Blim: Exploring Minimalist Design Approach On Digital Advertisements Of Snacks To Promote Effective Consumer Purchasing Decisions, Brigette L. Lu
DLSU Senior High School Research Congress
This paper discusses how the composition of minimalist digital advertisements of snacks can effectively promote positive consumer purchasing decisions through Blim–a brand created for the purpose of this research. A visually minimalist poster advertisement, especially for snacks, is not commonly found in the mass of loud and vividly designed ads as a technique of capturing consumer attention, standing out, and enticing buying decisions, thus, the exploration of this research. The end goal of this paper is to understand what makes digital snacks advertisements effective if a minimalist design is applied toward consumer purchasing decisions of the product. Qualitative and quantitative …
Abakabadaf: Reclamation Of Queer Spaces And The Adoption Of Gayspeak By The Mainstream, Gel Ralfrey Louie O. Romero
Abakabadaf: Reclamation Of Queer Spaces And The Adoption Of Gayspeak By The Mainstream, Gel Ralfrey Louie O. Romero
DLSU Senior High School Research Congress
Gayspeak is a queer argot that was formed to shield the Filipino LGBT community back when discrimination was rampant in the Philippines. Today, gayspeak can be observed in the vocabulary of people that are not part of the LGBT community which shows progress in tolerance. Despite this, the fight for queer equality has still not been achieved. This paper explores the adaptation of gayspeak by the mainstream by interviewing non-LGBT users of gayspeak and gathering the perceptions of the LGBT community towards them. The research found that non-LGBT people use gayspeak because of its comedic nature, capacity for socialization, and …

Color Schemes In Department Store Brands, Annaleia Faith Altstaetter
ONU Student Research Colloquium
Why are color schemes important and how is it used in graphic design? Every business and brand intentionally uses colors schemes to design their visual identity. The same color can mean a variety of different things in different contexts. For example, national corporate department store chains such as Macy’s, Khol’s, Jcpenny, TjMaxx, and Nordstrom use certain color schemes to express their brand essence. In this industry, is there a consistent color scheme that communicated the essence of the brand? How do people perceptive the brands and the industry through color schemes?
To undertake this research project the following methods will …

To Park, Or Not To Park: Ohio Northern University's Parking Signage, James Joseph Meyers
ONU Student Research Colloquium
Parking is a very necessary accommodation for a good number of students, faculty, and guests on the campus of Ohio Northern University. Is finding parking on campus a challenge for students? If so, does that have anything to do with the signage presented to students?
The university offers an array of parking options for students on campus, but how effective are the signs they use to communicate who can park where? All the parking lots on campus are labeled with small white signs indicating who can park there depending on the pass they have. Colors indicate which lots are for …

For The Cry Of The Roar, Elizabeth M. Dingman
ONU Student Research Colloquium
“For the Love of the Roar” summarizes Ohio Northern University’s athletics branding and how they present themselves to various audiences. The presence of the athletics branding even on social media platforms must communicate the brand essence of “team-orientation, ambition, pride, determination, integrity, and competitiveness” (ONU athletics Branding Guide).
Even with multiple varsity sports within ONU athletics, there needs to be consistency of how social media branding is used. It is important to communicate brand consistency in all social media platforms as branding is a critical aspect of any organization's identity and helps to distinguish an organization from its competitors.

Humanizing Brutalism: Graphics To Identify, Inform, Orient, Interpret And Inspire, Whitney Perkins
UMassBRUT Community
Despite the reputation of Brutalist architecture being somewhat cold and imposing, the original interiors of these buildings were often covered in brightly-colored signage. In the process of renovating Paul Rudolph's Claire T. Carney Library at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, designer Whitney Perkins drew upon the colors and graphics of the 1960s and 70s in order to construct a bold program of wayfinding, signage and tapestries for the building. This talk looks at some of the influences and processes involved in designing and fabricating this signage.

UMassBRUT Community
Members of the team that worked on the renovation of the Claire T. Carney Library, designed by Paul Rudolph and completed in 1972, share their design solutions for maintaining the integrity of the architecture and fostering an interior that is welcoming of its occupants. Discussions focus on interior attributes, human occupants, color, light and texture as approaches to humanize the massive concrete attributes that are notorious of Brutalist structures.

This talk covers the process behind the design of the fabric and textiles that were added to UMass Dartmouth's iconic Claire T. Carney Library during a $48 million dollar renovation of the Paul Rudolph building, completed in 2012. Interior Designer, Leslie Saul, describes how she drew inspiration from both UMass Dartmouth's genesis as a textile college and Rudolph’s original color palette to create eye-catching interior furniture and carpets in order to humanize this particular Brutalist interior.

Medical Illustration As A Tool For Health Literacy, Courtney Anne Wombles
EURēCA: Exhibition of Undergraduate Research and Creative Achievement
Health literacy is most commonly described as the ability of an individual to obtain, comprehend, and utilize information related to their health. Including the ability to read, write, speak, and display numeracy in medical situations, rates of health literacy impact the ability of an individual to navigate the healthcare system and make informed decisions. As reported by the National Assessment of Adult Literacy, only 12% of individuals have the proficiency to understand and manage their health. This research identifies problems existing in health literacy and doctor-patient communication, with an emphasis on consumer health information. It explores resources used for science …

The Crown Act: Natural Hair Is Professional Hair, Aysia Brown
Undergraduate Research Symposium
During my Design Seminar class, one of our assignments was a “Needed Design.” For this assignment we were asked to create something we think the world needs. I wanted my "Needed Design" to be Acceptance.
In the United States it is currently LEGAL to deny people from jobs, schools, and other public places solely because of the texture and style of their hair, which greatly effects black people. There are currently only 7 states that have passed laws to ban natural hair discrimination. (Virginia is one of them!) This resulted in Crown Act being created. The Crown Act stands for …

Selections From Divinatio Diver, Sculptural Antipathia In Atonement Transcendo, And Mechanika Momento: Creatio Forecaster, Antonie Frankie Aquino
Far West Popular Culture Association Annual Conference
It is fated inspiration which penetrates the heart, satisfies the collective soul, and offers its spirit to the vastness of ceremonial vision. Vision becomes sound and sound forms a poetic voice displaced— this displacement radiates a mythologized poetic voice serving as a lyrical object, theogonic lyre, and the genealogical muse. Selected poems from Divinatio Diver, Sculptural Antipathia: In Atonement Transcendo and Mechanika Momento: Creatio Forerunner, the collected poems orchestrate a tryptic voice that dismantles the outward magnitude of the self by subverting the antithetical self through spiritual and organic sensualness.This mythopoeic tripartism simultaneously interconnects with religion, theology, and metaphysics which …

Apps function to increase productivity and allow the user to complete tasks conveniently from their mobile device. As a college student who has several pets, I have found that there is no good app on the market which caters to every pet parent’s needs, which forces them to download four or five apps. To combat this problem, FurPaws gives the user a way to document every aspect of their pet’s health and daily routine, as well as providing information on first aid and expert, real-time advice from veterinarians. The E-Vet page is available to guests who have not yet registered, …
