The Aging Lgbtq Population, John P. Corbett

Family Medicine Clerkship Student Projects

Although being LGBTQ is more accepted than it was in previous times, there are still barriers that exist which keep some LGBTQ people from accessing quality healthcare. In the middle-age and older LGBTQ population, there are further issues that arise. Health care providers should be aware of some of these issues so that they can be addressed during an office visit if necessary.

藍地大街的故事, 香港嶺南大學服務研習處

OSL Students' Service-Learning Project Output: Booklet

嶺南大學服務研習處為大學生提供不同探索和參與社區的學習平台,在賽馬會「關愛.服務.研習 @ 屯門」計劃下,服務研習處於2017 年年初成功招募了十一位大學生成為「服務研習長者議題專題記者」(下稱「專題記者」)。專題記者於同年二月至四月期間接受了一系列的培訓,當中包括認識社區高齡化的議題、採訪、攝影及寫作技巧等,亦安排參觀媒體機構,了解記者的日常工作及環境;於同年三月至七月期間,專題記者到屯門藍地大街的傳統店鋪進行訪談。

藍地大街(下稱大街)位於新界屯門,是藍地的主要街道,附近有輕鐵藍地站、港鐵兆康站及嶺南大學。大街內有不少的村屋及小店鋪,包括舊式士多、百貨店及糧油雜貨店等,保留傳統市集的面貌,也算是偏離市中心的一條特色街道。在中文系講師蕭欣浩博士的指導下,專題記者撰寫專題文章,並透過文字及相片記錄店鋪的故事。服務研習處亦把文章編成此刊物,藉此加強大眾對屯門社區的認識。


The Bamboo Ceiling: A Study Of Barriers To Asian American Advancement, Emily Cheng Jan 2017

The Bamboo Ceiling: A Study Of Barriers To Asian American Advancement, Emily Cheng

Undergraduate Research Posters

The idea of cultural diversity in the workplace is a popular one, generating much discussion about the inclusion of and affirmative action toward minorities. However, these conversations rarely involve Asian Americans, who despite above-average levels of educational achievement, household income, and employment, find themselves underrepresented in and shut-out of upper-level management positions. In this project, I investigated the stereotype of East-Asian Americans as a model minority (created by non-Asians) to find out why East-Asian Americans are underrepresented in upper-level management in corporate workplaces, a phenomenon known as the “bamboo ceiling.” I explored a variety of scholarly sources that analyzed the …

Toward Justice: Reflections On A Lesson Before Dying, Robin A. Bedenbaugh, Ralph Hutchison, Connor Hess, André Canty, Kaya Grace Porter, Erin Adams, Ginna Mashburn, Jennifer M. Jabson, David B. Byrd

Newfound Press eBooks

In 2016, the citizens of Knoxville, Tennessee, joined in a community reading program called the Big Read. Knoxvillians read Ernest Gaines's book A Lesson Before Dying, and community groups hosted a series of lectures, book discussions, film screenings, and dramatic performances that immersed the community in a five-week conversation on racism.

This book of essays is the University of Tennessee Libraries' contribution to Knoxville's Big Read. The Libraries put out a community-wide call for written responses to A Lesson Before Dying and was richly rewarded with the thoughtful and heartfelt commentaries gathered here.

Gender And Violence In Urban Pakistan, Nausheen H. Anwar, Daanish Mustafa, Amiera Sawas, Sharmeen Malik

Faculty Research - Books

The project has focused on the material and discursive drivers of gender roles and their relevance to configuring violent geographies specifically among 12 urban working class neighborhoods of Karachi and Rawalpindi-Islamabad. This project has investigated how frustrated gendered expectations may be complicit in driving different types of violence and how they may be tackled by addressing first, the material aspects of gender roles through improved access to public services and opportunities, and second, discursive aspects of gender roles in terms of public education and media. This report's findings are based upon approximately two thousand four hundred questionnaire surveys, close to …
