Unearthed: Advocating Against Fracking And Breaking The Bond Of The Imagined World Order, Colleen E. Cloonan May 2016

Unearthed: Advocating Against Fracking And Breaking The Bond Of The Imagined World Order, Colleen E. Cloonan

ENV 434 Environmental Justice

While discussing the imagined world order, it is evident that the world is not perfect. Over the course of the centuries, the earth has been maimed by humans, whether it be during the agricultural age or throughout the process of industrialization into the modern era. Humans must realize that sooner, rather than later, we must address the environmental destruction we are causing. A specific case, with that such as hydraulic fracturing of shale, otherwise known as fracking, provides as an example of one of the environmental justice issues that is plaguing the earth. However, there are complications. In the consumer …

"Do You Kiss Your Mother With That Mouth?": Profanity In Popular Pg-13 Movies, Jason Eldredge, Stephen M. Trotter, Kirt Haynie, Melissa Littlefield Apr 2016

"Do You Kiss Your Mother With That Mouth?": Profanity In Popular Pg-13 Movies, Jason Eldredge, Stephen M. Trotter, Kirt Haynie, Melissa Littlefield

FHSS Mentored Research Conference

Exposure to profanity in the media is a concern shared by many. Profanity is often portrayed as humorous and/or innocent. A content analysis of popular PG-13 movies from the 1990s to the present shows the use of profanity is regularly portrayed as having no consequence. The overall amount of profanity in PG-13 movies has decreased since the 1990s.


Women's Autonomy And Hypertension, Benjamin J. Fife Apr 2016

Women's Autonomy And Hypertension, Benjamin J. Fife

FHSS Mentored Research Conference

Based on a nationally representative sample of women in the Dominican Republic, I examine how the amount of autonomy predicts the development of hypertension. Using logistic regression techniques for a sample of 4,869 women, I find that in the presence of demographic controls autonomy does not significantly predict the diagnosis of hypertension. In the case of women in the Dominican Republic, older age, higher weight, lower wealth, urban living and distance to a healthcare facility are better predictors of hypertension.


Do All Blacks & African Americans Have The Same Outcome?, Amelia F. Belchior Apr 2016

Do All Blacks & African Americans Have The Same Outcome?, Amelia F. Belchior

FHSS Mentored Research Conference

Do blacks and African Americans have the same outcome in terms of self-esteem, GPA, and SEC? Those who are aware of black history and understand the civil rights movement have higher self-esteem. Those blacks who accept their skin color and apply the self-fulling prophesy of what black is know to be, they have higher self-esteem as well. Black immigrants are more likely to accept their skin color and not associate blackness with living in the ghetto, being good at playing sports and dancing; they are more likely to have have self-esteem than native born African-Americans.


Explaining Demographic Differences In Marital Quality: The Role Of Mental And Physical Health, Kara Henderson, Jessica Harris, Spencer Young, Spencer James Apr 2016

Explaining Demographic Differences In Marital Quality: The Role Of Mental And Physical Health, Kara Henderson, Jessica Harris, Spencer Young, Spencer James

FHSS Mentored Research Conference

A vast body of literature has measured the demographic differences in marital quality. According to literature on marriage, the poorly educated, females, racial ethnic minorities, and premarital cohabitors report less marital satisfaction. The main focus and goal of our study is to link the various demographic differences with poor marital quality. Much of the research on marital quality has found a link between physical health and marital outcomes. The current research neglects the other factors of mental and physical health are related to marital satisfaction and conflict. We want to observe how mental and physical health may serve as mediators …


Popular Music: Sexually Saturated? A Content Analysis Of Sexual References In Popular Music, Meghan Terry, Mariah Ramage, Crystal Gardner, Jessica Van Alfen, Emilee Gregson Apr 2016

Popular Music: Sexually Saturated? A Content Analysis Of Sexual References In Popular Music, Meghan Terry, Mariah Ramage, Crystal Gardner, Jessica Van Alfen, Emilee Gregson

FHSS Mentored Research Conference

Adolescents and young adults listen to 2-3 hours of music per day. The sexual content of that music is important to identify formation and how they perceive sex and relationships, and genre of music can influence lyrics. This paper analyzes the effect that genre has on both presence and attitude of sexual references in popular music. The sample consisted of 200 of the best-selling songs on iTunes. Results suggest a significant relationship between both genre and presence of sexual references and genre and attitudes toward sex. This study shows that sexual content is prevalent in popular music and could suggest …

Not Your Token

It is not our job to educate you.
But we will demand to be listened to.
Who does this "progressive" institution represent?
When 'western' education is the only thing of value.
Equality does not equal equity.
Our identities and experiences cannot be bought.
We are more than a statistic.
We are more than a data point.
We are more than loose change.
We are people with a desire to learn;
And we …

Inauguration of Eric R. Jensen

April 1, 2016; 3:45–4:15 pm

Illinois Wesleyan aspires to be a campus that fully embraces diversity to further its educational mission and purpose. Strides have been made in recent years to more fully embrace lesbian, gay, bisexual, queer (LGBQ+) and others marginalized around sexual orientation, and transgender and gender nonconforming people (TGNC) and those marginalized around gender identity. This process gained traction with a climate survey of LGBT identity and experience that was administered in Spring 2013 and developed through a student–staff collaboration. This session will explore that collaboration and the ways it opened the doors to a period of …

Women And Drug Abuse: Applying A Gendered Lens To Treatment Programs, Taylor D. Montbriand Apr 2016

Women And Drug Abuse: Applying A Gendered Lens To Treatment Programs, Taylor D. Montbriand

Undergraduate Research Symposium 2016

At present, the body of research on chemical dependency programs does not adequately address gendered barriers to treatment. A gendered approach is needed to conceptualize and address women’s experiences with addiction as distinctive from that of men. A gendered approach sheds light on how gender plays a role in the entrance, continuance, and success of women in treatment programs for chemical dependency. In my research, I argue that applying a gendered lens will lay the groundwork for addressing women’s specific needs in regards to substance abuse treatment. The research design for this project utilizes an analysis of existing secondary sources. …

The Insecure City: Space, Power, And Mobility In Beirut, Kristin V. Monroe Mar 2016

The Insecure City: Space, Power, And Mobility In Beirut, Kristin V. Monroe

Anthropology Faculty Book Gallery

Fifteen years after the end of a protracted civil and regional war, Beirut broke out in violence once again, forcing residents to contend with many forms of insecurity, amid an often violent political and economic landscape. Providing a picture of what ordinary life is like for urban dwellers surviving sectarian violence, The Insecure City captures the day-to-day experiences of citizens of Beirut moving through a war-torn landscape.

While living in Beirut, Kristin Monroe conducted interviews with a diverse group of residents of the city. She found that when people spoke about getting around in Beirut, they were also expressing larger …

OSL Book / Book Chapter / Manual 書刊/文章/教材冊

服務,從來無分界限。一個笑容、一個擁抱,已經能傳遞愛心。去年暑假,一班大學生決定利用空餘時間走出香港,為一群素未謀面的陌生人服務。在服務的過程中,他們經歷過感人的故事、遇到過驚險的局勢動亂、嘗試過一人獨處異地、更學習過珍貴的知識。種種刻苦的磨練,都成為了寶貴的經歷和故事,為他們的歲月增添色彩。

就讓我們走過印尼、肯亞、埃及、台灣等地方,聽聽他們的故事,看看他們留下的足跡。

Service has no boundaries. A warm smile and a hug can spread love. Last summer, a group of university students decided to take a step out of Hong Kong to serve the unknown. During the service trip, they came across touching stories, encountered turmoil, traveled alone in unfamiliar countries and gained valuable knowledge. All these challenges and hardships are now precious memories that add meaning to their lives.

Let’s walk with them on their paths through Indonesia, Kenya, Egypt, Taiwan and other places, to feel and experience their exciting, yet touching stories.
