Interrupting The White Habitus In The Name Of Black Geographies: Black Cultural Inter-Production Through Performance, Tirzah Thomas Jan 2023

Interrupting The White Habitus In The Name Of Black Geographies: Black Cultural Inter-Production Through Performance, Tirzah Thomas

Senior Projects Fall 2023

In this project, I observe how Black folks and students of color interact with Black cultural production within cultural and educational historically white institutions. Black spatial thinkers such as JT Roane have theorized that when Black folks listen deeply to the environment endowed to them (often considered uninhabitable or hostile land), the community finds ways to make it accessible to their social life. Within historically white spaces, focusing on culture or education, the presence of Black attendees and students earns the space diversity capital. My project aims to trace the ways in which Black attendees and students carve out places …


“Gaining Control” Women’S Health On Period And Pregnancy Trackers, Stecy Mbemba Jan 2022

“Gaining Control” Women’S Health On Period And Pregnancy Trackers, Stecy Mbemba

Senior Projects Spring 2022

This project conducts a discourse analysis on four FemTech platforms: Clue, Flo, Ovia, and Sprout. It interrogate how these apps market their services and shape user attitudes about health. This analysis takes place in four sections: (1) visuals, (2) language, (3) services, and (4) terms of use and privacy. This project makes an argument for how FemTech replicates rather than mitigate disparities in the U.S healthcare system.

Trapped: A Performance Exploration Of The Illusion Of Confinement, Paul R. Presbrey Jan 2017

Trapped: A Performance Exploration Of The Illusion Of Confinement, Paul R. Presbrey

Senior Projects Spring 2017

Sometimes we build our own prisons and those prisons go through a crucial stage at which time, outside forces such as other people can help retrieve you from the depths of your own imprisonment. Unfortunately, these outside forces usually end up acting against you, sending a person deeper and deeper into the trap they laid for themselves. These outside forces or people usually do not know that they are contributing to the building of a person’s prison. These people act in direct response to something or even anonymously through things such as surveys. Most of the time people dance around …

Denatured: Emergent Realities Of Encyclopedic Dna Elements, Amelia Leeya Goldstein

Senior Projects Spring 2017

The Human Genome Project was the center of much controversy in the 1990's, as creating a map of the human genome drew into question the boundaries between nature and nurture, or science and society. Fifteen years have now passed since the Human Genome Project's completion, and the new paradigm of genetics is no longer governed by a strict nature/nurture dualism. This project looks at one of the Human Genome Project's successors: the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project, which has created new boundaries and limitations in this new phase of genetic thinking. Using a frame analysis and Actor-Network Theory approach …
