Is The Adoption Of Sustainability Financing An Effective Solution To Environmental Issues?, Andrew Damas
Is The Adoption Of Sustainability Financing An Effective Solution To Environmental Issues?, Andrew Damas
Fall Student Research Symposium 2021
With the growing use of green financing, environmentally conscious banks and investors can help incentivize firms to create more sustainable business practices. This poster aims to provide insight on how effective green financing is on lessening CO2 emissions and improving the environmental and social responsibility of the firm. The results indicate how complex the issue is. While green financing certainly helps to lessen a firms environmental impact, it also lacks clear guidelines, reducing it potential benefit.

Entrepreneurship Processes And Success In Developing Nations, Hayden Egley
Entrepreneurship Processes And Success In Developing Nations, Hayden Egley
Fall Student Research Symposium 2021
This research provides insights into the entrepreneurial process of small business owners (SBOs) in developing nations. Much of the existing entrepreneurship research has focused on small and medium sized businesses in developed nations such as the United States and United Kingdom; very little is known about the topic in the context of developing nations. Furthermore, while entrepreneurship is important to the economies of developing nations, entrepreneurship is often hampered in them due to lack of capital and financial innovation. This research uses the results of depth interviews of 70 SBOs in developing nations, focusing on Mongolia and the Philippines. The …

Are There Unidentified Frequent Issues Among Student Loan Providers?, Dan Ludwig
Are There Unidentified Frequent Issues Among Student Loan Providers?, Dan Ludwig
Fall Student Research Symposium 2020
There are millions of students, many of whom cannot afford to pay for their schooling without a loan. Student loans are an important business for financial institutions. It's common for students to run into issues at some point when dealing with their loan providers and servicers. I'm using Natural Language Processing (NLP) Topic Modeling algorithms to analyze customer complaint narratives to identify important emerging problems beyond the ones defined prior to complaint collection.
How Can Companies "Go Green" With Their Software?, Meredith Richards
How Can Companies "Go Green" With Their Software?, Meredith Richards
Fall Student Research Symposium 2020
An increasing number of companies are setting stricter and more defined guidelines on their relationship between software and energy consumption in order to take greater responsibility for their impact on the environment. However, "going Green" can be easier said than done, and most certainly does not happen overnight. So, how can companies go Green with their software? What does that process look like, how much does it cost, and how long does it take? A three-part process articulated by a group of researchers suggest deploying the following actions is the best approach to "Going Green": 1. Review and refine the …

Analyzing The Adoption Of Corporate Social Responsibility Strategies, Lia Sorensen
Fall Student Research Symposium 2020
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a business strategy via which a company aligns social and environmental concerns with both its business operations and its interactions with stakeholders. This paper examines how CSR creates value for companies that adopt CSR actions. It focuses on the CSR actions of six companies, five public and one private: Starbucks, Procter & Gamble, Johnson & Johnson, Nike, Unilever (Ben & Jerry's), and Penzeys Spices. In the 2000s, many companies began to see value in CSR and to implement CSR infrastructure and actions. With CSR increasing in popularity, more robust analyses of these initiatives started to …

Silver Screens & Canines, Lauren Christensen
Fall Student Research Symposium 2020
Why do we all know a "sad movie where the dog dies?" Why do film production companies continue to make this type of movie? What is so special about dogs we'll dedicate whole movies to them?In this project, I attempt to answer two questions. 1) are there any major themes shared between well-known "dog movies", and 2) how do these themes reflect our connections with dogs and ourselves? Through my research, I found three common themes that can be traced to basic human desires, including love, loyalty, and devotion. This is the reason they are desired by audiences; they capture …
Can Buying Meatless Products Decrease Climate Change?, Nicole Christiansen
Can Buying Meatless Products Decrease Climate Change?, Nicole Christiansen
Fall Student Research Symposium 2020
In this study we researched the power that consumers have to decrease climate change through the consumption of meat. Using literature and studies that have already been conducted, we compared the inputs of meat production to those of other crops. We also studied the role that raising livestock has on climate change. We found that livestock raising has a more significant impact on climate change than transportation in terms of greenhouse gasses. Livestock also uses far more land and water resources than raising crops. In this study we also analyzed the types of realistic changes that consumers can make in …
Take A Chance Or Play It Safe? The Influence Of Risk Orientation On Public Opinion Toward Immigration Policy, Emilee Matheson, Lizzy Bickmore
Take A Chance Or Play It Safe? The Influence Of Risk Orientation On Public Opinion Toward Immigration Policy, Emilee Matheson, Lizzy Bickmore
Fall Student Research Symposium 2020
Despite well-documented potential gains from immigration, US immigration policy strictly limits immigration flows. This divergence between policy and research findings may be driven by negative individual attitudes toward immigration. Certain factors such as age, education level, political ideology, religion, and exposure to immigrants have all been shown to impact an individual's preference on immigration policy. Other theories, such as the labor market hypothesis or the fiscal burden hypothesis, point to the perceived economic threats of immigration as a leading cause of anti-immigration sentiment. Our paper focuses on risk orientation, a characteristic that determines an individual's trade-offs between risk and return, …
Cynophobia In Film, Taylor Smith
Cynophobia In Film, Taylor Smith
Fall Student Research Symposium 2020
My research covered fear of dogs and how it's represented in film. What I found was that hostile, cinematic depictions of human-dog interactions were oftentimes a result of the dog's status as a carrier of disease (rabies), something that lead to cultural stigmas against dogs as well as symbolization of the spread of other diseases like AIDS and the flu. Films simply used this as a way to pander to the hysteria of a certain country or time period plagued by a disease outbreak.

Hr Machine Learning On Social Media Data, Jake Harrison
Fall Student Research Symposium 2020
Human resource departments gather data from various sources to help make effective decisions related to recruitment, selection, strategic planning, and employee management. Social media profiles (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn) are one recent source that many companies are turning to in order to gather unique information about current and prospective employees. The increasing abilities of artificial intelligence and machine learning may have an impact on the ease and validity of using social media information from applicants and employees to make employment decisions. In this research, we use previously published scholarly and trade sources to explain how HR personnel could use social …
How Pop-Culture Shaped Momiji Inubashiri, Tanner Schulz
How Pop-Culture Shaped Momiji Inubashiri, Tanner Schulz
Fall Student Research Symposium 2020
This presentation will talk about the effect of memes on the character Momiji Inubashiri. Momiji is a character from the video game Touhou 10: Mountain of Faith. She's the stage 4 mid boss and has minimal dialog throughout the series. The character has been mostly given life through memes. I thought that was absolutely fascinating, so I did a deep dive on the subject.

How Alternative Proteins Are Helping Consumers Reduce Their Carbon Footprint, Samantha Petersen
Fall Student Research Symposium 2020
The alternative protein market is trending toward creating more animal product alternatives, not just meatless meat. Alternative protein is a growing market that creates meat alternatives for groups like vegans and vegetarians. Large meat companies are starting to invest in meatless meat research and technology. Reducing meat consumption is one of the best ways to reduce land and water usage as well as reducing carbon emissions.
Why Are We Holding Immigrants Back?, Jaslyn Stevens
Why Are We Holding Immigrants Back?, Jaslyn Stevens
Fall Student Research Symposium 2020
Why are we holding immigrants back? Occupational licensing laws are most often enacted to create standards that ensure public health and safety. These standards might require additional fees, education, hours in practice, or competency tests. There are nearly two million educated immigrants that are underutilized within the United States. For some of these immigrants, they have already worked to meet licensure requirements in their native country and in many cases they have already been practicing for years. For other immigrants, they may have come to the United States, received an education, and been prevented from obtaining licensure. This research analyzes …
