Himalayan Connections: Disciplines, Geographies, Trajectories - A Workshop Report, Austin Lord, Andrew Quintman, Sara B. Shneiderman
HIMALAYA, the Journal of the Association for Nepal and Himalayan Studies
“Himalayan Connections: Disciplines, Geographies, Trajectories” was held from March 9-10, 2013 at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. The workshop was convened by Andrew Quintman (Religious Studies) and Sara Shneiderman (Anthropology), both Yale faculty members. It brought together a diverse group of researchers and practitioners to consider the interdisciplinary connections that might shape new approaches to Himalayan Studies; to recognize the diversity of perspectives that characterizes Himalayan scholarship; to consider the processes of change that affect ideas about the Himalaya; and to initiate dialogue towards future collaboration.

When Kashrut Is Not "Kosher": The Post Postville Struggle Over Eating, Ethics And American Jewish Identity, Rebecca Z. Hornstein
When Kashrut Is Not "Kosher": The Post Postville Struggle Over Eating, Ethics And American Jewish Identity, Rebecca Z. Hornstein
Religious Studies Honors Projects
On May 12, 2008, the United States Government conducted a massive immigration raid within the country’s largest kosher meatpacking plant. The raid and ensuing revelation of worker’s rights violations within the plant sparked an intense intra-Jewish debate over the extent to which unethically produced food could be considered kosher. This thesis analyzes the perspectives and actions of the debate’s major participants and argues that the discourse surrounding ethical kashrut in the context of the Postville immigration raid revealed that American Jewish communities have entered into a period of flux. Through this instability, many American Jews are challenging the once …
Does The Sat Predict Academic Achievement And Academic Choices At Macalester College?, Jing Wen
Does The Sat Predict Academic Achievement And Academic Choices At Macalester College?, Jing Wen
Mathematics, Statistics, and Computer Science Honors Projects
This paper examines the predictive power of the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) for Macalester students’ college success and academic choices. We use linear regression to study whether the SAT can predict students’ first year or four-year grades. Using Kullback-Leibler divergence and classification trees, we also examine the SAT’s predictive ability for other aspects of students’ academic experience, for example, major selection, or academic division of study. After controlling for major and course level, we find that the SAT does not explain a large proportion of the variability in Macalester students’ college success. However, the SAT does provide some useful information …

Modern Education And Changing Identity Constructions In Amdo, Lilian Iselin
Modern Education And Changing Identity Constructions In Amdo, Lilian Iselin
HIMALAYA, the Journal of the Association for Nepal and Himalayan Studies
This paper examines identity constructions of young and educated Tibetans from a socio-cultural background of nomadic pastoralism in Amdo. It is based on qualitative research conducted between 2003 and 2008, comparing two generations of educated young people from a township in the Amdo region of Northern Sichuan in the People’s Republic of China. It examines developments in education policies and practices as well as economic developments from 2003 to 2008 and argues that identity constructions of school students and graduates need to be analysed against the background of such changes. Conceptualisations of nomad identity are linked to nomadic pastoralism, and …

"Getting Educated": Working Class And First-Generation Students And The Extra-Curriculum, Taylor Laemmli
"Getting Educated": Working Class And First-Generation Students And The Extra-Curriculum, Taylor Laemmli
Sociology Honors Projects
Previous research shows that participation in the extra-curriculum supports college students' integration, but participation varies based on students' background: working class students and first-generation college students tend to participate less. I contribute to this literature by analyzing interview data. I find students differ in how they participate in activities and integrate into college based on their likelihood of attending an elite institution. Working-class and first-generation students participate in activities as an extension of academics, while other students participate for social reasons, resulting in different experiences of campus life. This difference can restrict students' gains in social and cultural capital, potentially …
