Freedom With Contingencies: Obstacles To Life After Prison, Megan Lowe
Freedom With Contingencies: Obstacles To Life After Prison, Megan Lowe
University Research Symposium Posters and Abstracts
We all have conceptions of life in prison, but what do inmates experience when they return to society after serving their sentence? Former prisoners face a myriad of obstacles which stand between them and truly returning to life outside of prison. They lack what they had before incarceration. Familial relations, social networks, job security, and the guarantee of shelter are all liable to have changed in nature or be completely nonexistent after the duration of a prison sentence (Jones, 2021). They can no longer rely on things they had become accustomed to in prison. The structure of prison life can …
How We See Ourselves: Self-Esteem, Perceived Physical Attractiveness And Perceptions Of Being Overweight, Yasmin Odeh
How We See Ourselves: Self-Esteem, Perceived Physical Attractiveness And Perceptions Of Being Overweight, Yasmin Odeh
University Research Symposium Posters and Abstracts
We are a nation that emphasizes healthy self-esteem, and research indicates that there are many benefits of having a high self-esteem, including confidence, good physical and mental health, and better relationships (Seok & Park, 2021). Not everyone, however, has high self-esteem. There are many factors that contribute to having a high self-esteem, including early family experiences, acceptance from peers, and accomplishments (Cast & Burke, 2002; Schwalbe & Staples, 1991). While some of these factors contributing to self-esteem may be under people’s control, other factors that affect self-esteem are not. Research has shown that one’s physical attractiveness (which can be argued …
Online Sex Work In The Time Of Covid-19, Courtney Ebersole
Online Sex Work In The Time Of Covid-19, Courtney Ebersole
University Research Symposium Posters and Abstracts
Young college-age women have been increasingly using online sex work as a popular avenue to raise capital. This study explores the experiences of women (both cis and trans) undergraduate students who engage in self-produced sex work using the mainstream online adult entertainment platform, Onlyfans. Posting explicit content such as pictures and videos on the Onlyfans platform has allowed many college women to earn an income and fund their university costs, especially during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. This study aims to identify interpretative narratives used by undergraduate women in the U.S. to make sense of their labor as sex workers within …

Replicas Of Social Change: Examining Reflections Of Religious Shifts In Japanese Society Through Literary Depictions Of Kitsune Characters, Sophia Pressler
Replicas Of Social Change: Examining Reflections Of Religious Shifts In Japanese Society Through Literary Depictions Of Kitsune Characters, Sophia Pressler
Theses and Dissertations
This study examines the roles of female kitsune (fox) characters in Japanese literature in different historical eras: the Heian period (794-1185), the Edo period (1603-1868), the Meiji period in addition to the period before the end of World War II (1868-1945), and the modern day (late twentieth to early twenty-first centuries). The goal of this analysis of kitsune folk tales, legends, and stories is to reunite the ‘folk’ with their folklore - providing evidence of how the content of folk tales, legends, and other stories are shaped by their contexts and thus serve as valuable historical records of the lives …
Ani-Kitu Hwagi Center Places: A Study Of Survivance, Tyler Michael Mantia
Ani-Kitu Hwagi Center Places: A Study Of Survivance, Tyler Michael Mantia
Theses and Dissertations
Ani-Kitu Hwagi (Cherokee) settlements across the Southeastern United States have been intensively studied to evaluate how social dynamics, gender roles, and economic disruption came to impact levels of stability and variability within both domestic and public structures or spaces during the seventeenth to eighteenth century. Some studies characterize this period by using the term “Shatter Zone” to describe a historical model for the US Southeast that emphasizes a landscape of disruption characterized by population displacement, widespread disease, increased levels of slavery, and economic disruption. I reorient analyses of archaeological evidence of this timeframe in terms of center places, a conceptual …
Analysis Of Sir Epidemic Models With Sociological Phenomenon, Robert F. Allen, Katherine C. Heller, Matthew A. Pons
Analysis Of Sir Epidemic Models With Sociological Phenomenon, Robert F. Allen, Katherine C. Heller, Matthew A. Pons
Spora: A Journal of Biomathematics
We propose two SIR models which incorporate sociological behavior of groups of individuals. It is these differences in behaviors which impose different infection rates on the individual susceptible populations, rather than biological differences. We compute the basic reproduction number for each model, as well as analyze the sensitivity of R0 to changes in sociological parameter values.
A Qualitative Inquiry Of The Body Project On College Campuses In Illinois, Maria Ross
A Qualitative Inquiry Of The Body Project On College Campuses In Illinois, Maria Ross
Theses and Dissertations
Negative body image is a social and psychological concern that plagues many young women in the United States and has a strong relationship to the onset of eating disorders. One outcome of past research done on body dissatisfaction and eating concerns has been the implementation of peer-led prevention programs such as The Body Project and More Than Muscles that address negative body image and disordered eating. These programs target the sociocultural factors that contribute to eating and body image issues on college campuses. This study uses interviews supplemented by ethnographic fieldnotes and content analysis to describe and evaluate the implementation …
British Colonial Strategies To Control The Influenza Epidemic Of 1918 To 1919 In Ashanti, Dennis Baffour Awuah
British Colonial Strategies To Control The Influenza Epidemic Of 1918 To 1919 In Ashanti, Dennis Baffour Awuah
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis seeks to examine the strategies and policies that were employed by the British colonial administration to control the influenza epidemic of 1918-1919 in Ashanti. I argue that the varying philosophies of both the colonial administration and the Native population in Ashanti on health and medicine influenced the response trajectory to the disease. It also explores the aspects of Indigenous medical practices which are largely concerned with the religion or beliefs of the people. Before the outbreak of influenza, the colonial administration started a campaign to promote Western medicine while antagonizing Indigenous medicine. To an extent, this made the …
Bombazo Epistemology A Syllabus Of Survival: Dismantling Settler Colonialism's Philosophy In The Stolen Land, Armen Alvarez
Bombazo Epistemology A Syllabus Of Survival: Dismantling Settler Colonialism's Philosophy In The Stolen Land, Armen Alvarez
Theses and Dissertations
Eurocentric educational philosophy has functioned as an anticipatory regime creating racial, economic, historical, sociopolitical, and intellectual separation and imposing dominant knowledge systems. In 2021, American and Hispanic empires rejected organic movements from scholars and academic activists for embracing a vision of the world outside the boundaries of Eurocentrism. A trend that has shaken the foundations of Eurocentric Academia. More than ever, the Bomba Ceremony has emerged as a tradition that substantiates Puerto Rico's identity, awakening the consciousness of TransIndigenous and Transcolonialism intersubjectivities. Using Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), I conceptualize the logic of white supremacy through the lenses of white settler …
The Impact Of Implicit Education Debt On The Lives Of African American Mothers In Phd Programs: A Phenomenological Research Study, Tiffany S. Bumpers
The Impact Of Implicit Education Debt On The Lives Of African American Mothers In Phd Programs: A Phenomenological Research Study, Tiffany S. Bumpers
Theses and Dissertations
The purpose of this study was to understand the impact of implicit education debt on African American mothers lived reality, as these women pursue PhDs. Using Collins’ (2000) Black Feminist Thought and the Racial Opportunity Cost (ROC) as theoretical frameworks, the study presents the voices of African American mothers in doctoral programs who occupy a liminal space in the academy. Chambers and Huggins (2014) defined ROC as “the options that are foregone and the losses that result from those foregone options when students of color pursue academic success” (p. 189). Upon the researcher’s analysis of the data, the following seven …

Water Disconnection And Billing Policy In Central Illinois, Melissa Heil, Rebekah Bollin, Luke Gallagher
Water Disconnection And Billing Policy In Central Illinois, Melissa Heil, Rebekah Bollin, Luke Gallagher
Faculty Publications - Geography, Geology, and the Environment
Over ten percent of American households face unaffordable water bills. When households have overdue bills, they are usually subjected to service disconnection by the water utility. Water disconnection policy is set at the local level, which can result in spatial variation with respect to how lenient or strict disconnection policies are. Examining the case of the central Illinois region, this paper introduces a methodology for 1) chronicling this variation and 2) analyzing which populations are most affected by strict billing and disconnection policies.
Beyond Debt And Equity: Dissecting The Red Herring And A Path Forward For Normative Critiques Of Finance, Aaron Z. Pitluck
Beyond Debt And Equity: Dissecting The Red Herring And A Path Forward For Normative Critiques Of Finance, Aaron Z. Pitluck
Faculty Publications – Sociology and Anthropology
A recurring theme in academic, moralizing, and religious discourses laments the individual and societal perils of debt and praises equity. Contemporary Islamic banking and finance is one conspicuous example. Th is article recontextualizes this conversation by demonstrating that since the 1980s financial practitioners have been interpreting debt and equity as increasingly illegible cognitive schemas that nonetheless retain their historical and moral connotations. Th is line of argumentation suggests that normatively contrasting debt and equity is a red herring— a literary device and theoretical construct that misleads and distracts from the fundamental discussion of what constitutes salubrious or odious finance. Little …
Barriers To Accessing Emergency Water Infrastructure: Lessons From Flint, Michigan, Melissa Heil
Barriers To Accessing Emergency Water Infrastructure: Lessons From Flint, Michigan, Melissa Heil
Faculty Publications - Geography, Geology, and the Environment
Several high-profile cases of water service interruption have occurred in United States communities over the last decade, halting the usual operations of water infrastructures. In these situations, governments and NGOs have created emergency water infrastructures, such as bottled water distribution sites, to meet residents' water needs. This paper examines the accessibility of such emergency water distribution sites by analysing the case of Flint, Michigan. Drawing on interviews with community leaders in Flint who administered the city's bottled water distribution programmes, this paper identifies barriers to access in the city's emergency water infrastructure that stem from and deepen pre-existing socio-spatial inequality. …
The Politics Of Owing: Accounting, Water Disconnection, And Austerity Urbanism In Detroit, Melissa Heil
The Politics Of Owing: Accounting, Water Disconnection, And Austerity Urbanism In Detroit, Melissa Heil
Faculty Publications - Geography, Geology, and the Environment
With the rise of austerity urbanism, contemporary urban governance has been described as “rule by accountancy.” Yet the intricacies of accounting practice have been underexplored in the austerity urbanism literature. Drawing on insights from critical accounting studies, I interrogate accounting practices as political exercises that draw people and institutions into ties of obligation (accountability), shape social relations, and structure the conditions of urban life. Through this lens, practices of accounting can be understood not just as a technocratic tool of the financialized state, but as a contested terrain of urban political struggle. Examining the case of austerity-driven water service disconnections …

Helping Students In The Heartland: Student Affairs At Rural Community Colleges, Gabe Estill
Helping Students In The Heartland: Student Affairs At Rural Community Colleges, Gabe Estill
Theses and Dissertations
In this interview study, I examine how student affairs administration (SAA) works at rural community colleges as well as how rural senior student affairs officers (SSAOs) function in their leadership roles. The study purports to understand student affairs in the context of “rurality,” or what it means to be rural. Two primary research questions guide the study. First, how do rural community colleges serve their students? Second, what qualities are needed to lead student affairs at rural community colleges? I employed a semi-structured interview approach to answer these questions, focusing on the experiences of SSAOs at rural community colleges across …

Project-Based Pedagogy: The Client's Perspective, Wayne Aho, Wendy Cagle, Jon Marvel, Michael Smith, Edward Wright
International Journal for Business Education
Project-based experiential business education seeks to provide students with lessons that are meaningful, practical, and enduring. While previous research has sought to understand how students and faculty members react to such educational experiences, it is also important to understand the perceptions of the business clients who engage with programs employing project-based education. The aim of this study was to better understand the experiences of business clients with whom students engaged as part of an undergraduate business capstone course. Two hundred fifty-three previous clients were surveyed with a 22.4% response rate. Responses were subjected to content analysis to cluster replies into …
Cultivating Financial Literacy Through Secondary School Economics Education: Access To Powerful Knowledge, Emanuel Mizzi
Cultivating Financial Literacy Through Secondary School Economics Education: Access To Powerful Knowledge, Emanuel Mizzi
International Journal for Business Education
‘Powerful knowledge’ is disciplinary knowledge that when learned, empowers students to make decisions in a way that will influence their lives in a positive way (Young, 2008). In this paper, the researcher employs this construct to explore the financial literacy education arising from studying secondary school economics. It emerges from the author’s research aimed at exploring teaching and learning in secondary school Maltese economics classrooms. The underlying conceptual framework for this study is critical realism. The study design consisted of interviewing and observing 14 economics teachers, together with four focus groups interviews with students. Data were analyzed by employing thematic …
