Modalities Of Injustice In The Subaltern Discourse, Theresa M. Mcclary-Jeffryes
Modalities Of Injustice In The Subaltern Discourse, Theresa M. Mcclary-Jeffryes
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Subaltern persons continue to be most negatively impacted by the hegemonic practices of institutions. Subaltern populations are the furthest removed from political agency, not only by the insecurities of their lived experiences, but also by academic and agency discourses that recreate the subaltern political citizen-subject in modes representing the “Other” through lenses of elite scholarship and high theory. The subaltern agent is not present in her own political making. The considerations of social justice require both the underpinnings of a global ethics of caring and a commitment to center the subaltern citizen subject’s account of herself as corresponding privileged record. …

A Critical Analysis Of Volunteer Tourism And The Implications For Developing Communities, Haley A. Garrison
A Critical Analysis Of Volunteer Tourism And The Implications For Developing Communities, Haley A. Garrison
Mahurin Honors College Capstone Experience/Thesis Projects
The practice of volunteer tourism has recently experienced a rise in both popularity and participation, along with research into the effectiveness of the approaches to service taken in foreign countries. This type of tourism is commonly described as an eco-friendly and economically sustainable alternative to traditional methods of international travel. Participants typically express altruistic motivations behind their desire to travel, as conventional touristic activities are paired with various forms of volunteer work. Though this paper describes significant benefits associated with this growing industry, many critiques have also explored the limitations of a voluntourism approach to community development. In contrast to …

Turning Toward Feeling, Elizabeth D. Mcgrew
Turning Toward Feeling, Elizabeth D. Mcgrew
SR & SC Masters Projects
Five years ago, upon completing a 200-hour, 30-day intensive yoga teacher-training course, we took this group photo. Painted on the wall behind us are the words, “Feel pain? Change positions.” At that time in my life, my understanding of this assertion was shallow: if it feels as though something is ripping, pulling, or tearing, move out of the yoga pose. But as for other physical and emotional pain, I had been taught to sit with it and accept it, and by doing so I would demonstrate strength and continue to grow stronger. Turning away from pain seemed cowardly. It wasn’t …

Overcoming Barriers To Local Food Access: A Case Study, Brittany Ryan
Overcoming Barriers To Local Food Access: A Case Study, Brittany Ryan
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
This thesis focuses on the idea that food insecurity and access are real issues in the lives of many Americans. Simply stated, food insecurity is when a person does not have enough food to eat or does now know where his/her next meal is coming from. More importantly when looking at food insecurity is the realization that healthy, local food access is even more prevalent an issue – with increasingly more under-resourced individuals and families being food insecure and unhealthy at the same time. This thesis includes a literature review on diet and nutrition in the United States, a chapter …
