Diego explains that this essay “was special to me because it revolved around my family and …
Trans Joy And The Lesson Of Authentic Living, Emma Victra Danvers
Trans Joy And The Lesson Of Authentic Living, Emma Victra Danvers
Undercurrents: A Journal of Undergraduate Student Composition
Emma Victra Danvers is a Psychology major from North Kingstown, Rhode Island. Her essay investigates trans joy and the research demonstrating the positive effects of gender transition. As a trans woman writing during a particularly difficult period for the transgender community, Emma wanted to examine joy not as an escape from political realities but as a meaningful source of strength and resilience. She explains, “The more I started writing it, the more I realized how much I have to be happy about. I found that trans joy again that I lost for a little bit.” The project also helped Emma …
Hamburgers: Great For Dinner, Bad For Writing, Jameison Wirta
Hamburgers: Great For Dinner, Bad For Writing, Jameison Wirta
Undercurrents: A Journal of Undergraduate Student Composition
Jameison Wirta is from Somerset, MA, and is a Psychology major with a Chemistry minor in the Pre-Medical Program. For Jameison, this essay was especially important because it completely transformed the way he thinks about writing. “I used to hate writing,” he explains, “but what I really hated was the cookie-cutter, check-the-box process I was always confined to. Learning to set myself a bit freer in my writing was an absolute blessing, and now I love it.” He hopes to share that same sense of freedom with others through his work. This semester was Jameison’s first time back in a …
To Speak Is To Survive: Language, Loss And Holding On, Mathilda Sanon
To Speak Is To Survive: Language, Loss And Holding On, Mathilda Sanon
Undercurrents: A Journal of Undergraduate Student Composition
Mathilda Sanon is a Psychology major with an English minor from Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Mathilda explains that this essay was deeply personal to her because it is tied to her family, her culture, and her own experiences of language. She thought often of her grandmother, who has lived in the United States for decades but has never let go of Haitian Kreyol. “Watching her speak her language so freely while I have spent years adjusting mine to fit into certain spaces really stuck with me,” Mathilda reflects. She says that she did not want to write about language loss as some …
The Dystopian Landscape Of Short-Form Content, Leslie Payne
The Dystopian Landscape Of Short-Form Content, Leslie Payne
Undercurrents: A Journal of Undergraduate Student Composition
Leslie Payne is a Psychology major with a Communications minor from Vienna, Virginia. Leslie explains that when her class began discussing the impact of social media, she immediately knew what her essay would focus on. “It felt like the only possible thing I could write about,” she recalls, noting how strongly she felt about its pervasive effects yet lacking the structured expression to articulate them before this assignment. She was particularly interested in the overlap between short-form content, identity formation, and media cycles, and writing this paper gave her both the research and framework to better understand those connections. She …
Saint Joan Of Arc And The Modern Transgender Liberation Movement, Nick King
Saint Joan Of Arc And The Modern Transgender Liberation Movement, Nick King
Undercurrents: A Journal of Undergraduate Student Composition
Nick King is a Classical Languages and History major from Haverhill, MA. For Nick, this essay became a source of both comfort and empowerment, particularly within the context of our current political climate. He explains that “being a trans person is hard, and we need more role models of resilience,” and this writing project allowed him to give voice to those complexities. Written during his second semester of college, Nick notes that the atmosphere of political strife pushed him to pour even more passion and conviction into his work. This essay is especially meaningful to Nick because it reflects the …
Compelled By Darkness: Batman, Mental Instability, And The Blurred Line Of Heroism, Chloë Lucien
Compelled By Darkness: Batman, Mental Instability, And The Blurred Line Of Heroism, Chloë Lucien
Undercurrents: A Journal of Undergraduate Student Composition
Chloë Lucien is a Music major with a Dance minor from Mattapan, MA. Chloë explains that this essay was deeply personal because Batman’s story has always been more than a comic book origin to her. “Batman himself has become a mirror I could look into, a reflection of my own journey from pain to purpose,” she shares. Writing about Bruce Wayne allowed her to explore how mental wounds can coexist with, and even fuel, acts of courage, challenging the simplistic “hero-versus-villain” narrative while bringing self-acceptance to her own ongoing work of healing. For Chloë, the essay became more than an …
Film's Depictions Of Mental Illness, Mandy May
Film's Depictions Of Mental Illness, Mandy May
Undercurrents: A Journal of Undergraduate Student Composition
Mandy May is a psychology major from Canton, CT. Mandy’s purpose for writing her essay was to spread awareness of the impact that negative portrayals of mental illnesses in the media have on audiences. She shares that, as a psychology major, she has always been “hyper-aware of the way films exaggerate and emphasize unrealistic stereotypes surrounding mental illness.” Mandy feels that this essay gave her the opportunity to “finally research more about the reality of these depictions, and to hear about how people with mental disorders are affected by negative portrayals.” With a growing interest in child psychology, fueled by …
Music And Mental Health, Yelena Hernandez Bonilla
Music And Mental Health, Yelena Hernandez Bonilla
Undercurrents: A Journal of Undergraduate Student Composition
Yelena Hernandez Bonilla is a public health major from Chelsea, MA. As an undergraduate student, Yelena began reflecting on her school experience and noticed how much music has helped her “whether feeling happy, stressed, overwhelmed, or just needing a moment to unwind.” She decided to write this essay because she sees how important music is for many students. Apart from just listening to music, Yelena has played the piano and guitar for many years. Her music has served as a crucial outlet and has become “a major part of who I am because it is something I love and enjoy …
A Conversation Amongst Trees, Bella Brown
A Conversation Amongst Trees, Bella Brown
Undercurrents: A Journal of Undergraduate Student Composition
Bella Brown is an environmental science major and a biology minor from Glastonbury, CT. Bella says that she is “super passionate about nature and finding new ways to preserve and understand it” and when she was presented with the task of writing a research paper she knew that she wanted to further explore a podcast episode about trees communicating through fungi, or “talking trees.” She says it “seemed like a huge breakthrough on understanding how our forests function as complex ecosystems.” Bella also notes that one thing she loved about writing this paper was the freedom to choose whatever topic …

When The Hood Comes Off: Racism And Resistance In The Digital Age, By Rob Eschmann. University Of California Press, 2023. 312 Pages. $24.95. Isbn 978-0520379749, Stephanie M. Ortiz
When The Hood Comes Off: Racism And Resistance In The Digital Age, By Rob Eschmann. University Of California Press, 2023. 312 Pages. $24.95. Isbn 978-0520379749, Stephanie M. Ortiz
Journal of Hate Studies
Sociologist Stephanie M. Ortiz reviews Rob Eschmann’s When the Hood Comes Off: Racism and Resistance in the Digital Age, which examines how the internet reorganizes the conditions under which racism is expressed, with a focus on higher education. This reorganization allows hate to flourish online even as racism is disavowed in public. Online and offline spaces are not disconnected, though, and digital revelations—revealed when “the hood comes off”—shape offline relationships, institutional trust, campus climate, and students’ sense of safety.
Children No More: Were And Are Gone. Produced By Sheila Nevins, Yael Melamede And Hilla Medalia; Directed By Hilla Medalia. English. 2026; Color; 36 Minutes. Full Story Films, Medalia Productions, And Salty Features, Muzna Rahman
Journal of Hate Studies
Postcolonial studies scholar Muzna Rahman reviews Children No More: Were and Are Gone, Hilla Medalia’s Academy Award-nominated short documentary. The film documents pro-peace Israeli activists who gather regularly in Tel Avivi to hold a silent vigil for Palestinian children killed by Israel forces. Against the backdrop of everyday urban life, the protestors simply hold photos of the children, commemorating their lives rather than their brutal deaths. The images of Palestinian children held by Israeli activities highlights the similarities between the groups, while the rage of passersby reveals the danger that Israelis who advocate for peace face in their work.

Proof, Evidence And Hate Crime: A Study In Criminal Jurisprudence, By Tshepo Bogosi Mosaka. Routledge, 2026. 226 Pages. $150.00 Isbn 978-1032764535, Sachin S. Pandya
Journal of Hate Studies
Legal scholar Sachin S. Pandya reviews Tshepo Bogosi Mosaka’s Proof, Evidence and Hate Crime: A Study in Criminal Jurisprudence. While traditional notions of proof separate fact from value and treat proof as apart from procedural rules and practices and from substantive law, Proof, Evidence, and Hate Crime proposes an applied and context-specific model of proof. Mosaka uses non-contact hate crimes motivated by race, religion, and ethnic bias to explore his ideas.

Bahasa dan Seni: Jurnal Bahasa, Sastra, Seni, dan Pengajarannya

This study examines translation techniques, levels of meaning equivalence, and relevance in dialogues concerning domestic violence and personal trauma in Colleen Hoover's It Ends with Us and its Indonesian translation, Akhir Antara Kita. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, 451 dialogue segments were analyzed using the frameworks of Molina and Hurtado Albir (2002), Baker (1992), and Gutt (2010).

The Caged Canary: Compounded Discrimination And The Female Jazz Vocalist, Isabella Eaton
The Caged Canary: Compounded Discrimination And The Female Jazz Vocalist, Isabella Eaton
Master's Theses
While women have historically represented the overwhelming majority of jazz vocalists, they have also experienced a unique legitimacy gap in a culture that traditionally grants the status of authenticity to the masculine instrumentalist. This study explores the experiences of mid-twentieth century female jazz vocalists, arguing that they faced compounded discrimination within American jazz culture as a result of gender marginalization and the devaluation of their vocal instrument. The intricacies of this phenomenon necessitate a multipronged qualitative approach by employing historiographical analysis, synthesis of existing scholarship, and qualitative case study research methods. Beginning with the dichotomy between the jazz “cat” and …

Bahasa dan Seni: Jurnal Bahasa, Sastra, Seni, dan Pengajarannya
In terms of anthropological linguistics, the study aims to explore the interaction of language, culture and cognitive tendencies in the community of Kajang. It particularly looks into the traditional oral expressions (kelong) of the community, including Kelong Basing Rikong, Lok-lok, and Ati-ati Raja, as their understandings of life, death, spirituality, and social values are expressed. A qualitative ethnolinguistic approach, informed by anthropological linguistics, was used in this study.

The Case Against The Five-Paragraph Essay, An Tran
The Case Against The Five-Paragraph Essay, An Tran
Undercurrents: A Journal of Undergraduate Student Composition
An Tran is a double major in finance and psychology from Boston, MA. An notes that she came from an “underfunded elementary school” where “the curriculum has been rooted in standardized tests, and preparing for them in order to bring in funding.” Given that, she argues that “our value, as students, has become less about the investment of an upcoming generation and more about how much money we could bring in from our test scores.” An notes that the five-paragraph essay “is a core component of this pattern, and it hinders students from truly learning the craft of writing.” She …

She enjoys sewing and has been working on enhancing her garment-making skills. Madeline enjoys painting portraits and reading books, particularly those related …

Rage Against The Machine: How Screen Time Is Impairing Our Intelligence And What We Can Do About It, Jillian Steeves
Undercurrents: A Journal of Undergraduate Student Composition
Jillian is a history major from Danvers, MA. Her essay was inspired by an article she read in her composition class about how screens could damage cognitive functioning, and she thinks that “for a lot of people, myself included, overindulgence in tech is increasingly affecting our quality of life.” Jillian noted the irony of a history major writing about a current topic, but she “found there to be a lot of overlap between my history studies and the topic of my essay,” and she was able to “take many of the skills I’ve picked up as a historian — research, …

Your Teachers Are Bullshitting You, Kylie Medeiros
Your Teachers Are Bullshitting You, Kylie Medeiros
Undercurrents: A Journal of Undergraduate Student Composition
Kylie is a biology major from Fairhaven, MA. Because she was specifically told for this assignment that students “couldn’t bullshit this essay,” she was reminded of all the times throughout her academic career when other teachers said things of a similar nature. “Being short on time, and desperately in need of a research topic,” she found that it would be “incredibly ironic to bullshit my paper in the form of a research on the topic of BS itself.” While writing her essay Kylie found it interesting how much creative freedom she was given to research and write about something she …
