The Philosophical Significance Of Slave Narratives, Darian Spearman
The Philosophical Significance Of Slave Narratives, Darian Spearman
Theses
This thesis asserts that the slave narratives are a significant resource for philosophers. Following Lewis Gordon, I argue that the slave narratives should not be understood merely as experiential evidence by which to validate Western thought. Instead, the narratives should be read as moments in which Black narrators shared their unique insights on the Western world. In line with Angela Davis, I argue that these critiques are still relevant to philosophers of this day and age. However, I argue that Davis' Marxist reading of Frederick Douglass' Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave is still vulnerable to …
A Social-Ecological Framework To Integrate Multiple Objectives For Environmental Flows Management, David M. Martin, Dylan Harrison-Atlas, Nicholas A. Sutfin, N. Leroy Poff
A Social-Ecological Framework To Integrate Multiple Objectives For Environmental Flows Management, David M. Martin, Dylan Harrison-Atlas, Nicholas A. Sutfin, N. Leroy Poff
Journal of Contemporary Water Research and Education
"Environmental flows" is a research discipline that emphasizes freshwater allocation in rivers to sustain desired ecological conditions and human well-being. The basis for environmental flow requirements has traditionally relied on hydrological and ecological data. Contemporary methods focus on detailed hydro-ecological relationships within river ecosystems; however, there is currently no structured approach to systematically incorporate socially relevant data into the environmental flows discipline. To address this limitation we developed a flexible framework that applies a social-ecological systems approach to account for multiple flow-related objectives that reflect both biophysical sustainability and societal preferences. First, we conceptualize the freshwater social-ecological system as a …
Building Social Change Through Interactive Webcomics, Sarah Shelton
Building Social Change Through Interactive Webcomics, Sarah Shelton
Research Papers
Comic books are a popular form of creative storytelling. Through sequential juxtaposed panels, comics have the unique ability to interact with the reader through time and space. The context within comics is the constrained amount of panels a typical comic book page allows, and the space that exists between the panels encourages the reader to manipulate meaning. Through this unique process of interaction between the narrative and the reader, comics have proven to be a creative medium to promote meanings of social change. Throughout history, comics have utilized their entertaining guise to mask underlying themes of social injustices and political …

The Impact Of Media Consumption On Civic Participation: Examining Media And Social Capital Effects, An’Drea E. Hall
The Impact Of Media Consumption On Civic Participation: Examining Media And Social Capital Effects, An’Drea E. Hall
Research Papers
This study examines how media consumption and social capital impact civic participation. Although several studies have been conducted on the issue of media effects and social capital, mostly in the area of political participation, fewer studies have explored their impact on civic participation. This study therefore expands the literature on the issue of civic participation by looking at the effects of using different media types such as: television, newspapers, radio, and the Internet, in addition to having a certain level of social capital, in order to engage in civic activities. Ordinary least squares (OLS) regression technique was used in analyzing …
Blood, Mud, And Money: Place And Public Land Conflicts In The Shawnee Hills, Karen Wolf
Blood, Mud, And Money: Place And Public Land Conflicts In The Shawnee Hills, Karen Wolf
Dissertations
This dissertation examines conflicts involving the use of public land for both extractive resources and recreational purposes in Southern Illinois from an anthropological perspective. These conflicts are examined in terms of place, western ideas of nature and culture, and the debate concerning conservation versus preservation. The beginning point for this work was the question of whether or not place building influences conflicts over public land. The conflicts that this work encompasses are logging, hunting, use of off-road vehicles, equestrian, and hydraulic fracturing. My goal was to look at different recreational conflicts of Southern Illinois and determine how issues of place, …
Late Woodland Ceramic Decorative Styles In The Lewis Phase Of The Lower Ohio Valley: An Investigation Of Social Connectedness, Wesley Albertus Jackson
Late Woodland Ceramic Decorative Styles In The Lewis Phase Of The Lower Ohio Valley: An Investigation Of Social Connectedness, Wesley Albertus Jackson
Theses
This research focuses on the nature and extent of social relationships between two Late Woodland Lewis phase villages, ca. A.D. 650 to 900, in southern Illinois and western Kentucky. These villages are the Cypress Citadel site in Johnson County, Illinois (111JS76), and the McGilligan Creek site in Livingston County, Kentucky (19LV197). Relationships between the two communities are examined through a detailed comparison of their ceramic assemblages, especially the decorated pottery. Chi square and Cramer's V statistics are used along with the social interaction and information exchange theories to determine the most likely to association between the sites. The results suggest …

A Sociophonetic Study Of The Northern Cities Shift In Southwest Michigan, Sara Daniels
Theses
This study was designed to measure the perception of Southwest Michigan residents' perception of the Northern Cities Shift, and compare it to the perceptions of Southeast Michigan residents. Participants, recruited from the Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo areas, were asked to complete a dialect boundary map of the United States in order to discern perceptions of American English dialects and accents and determine the dialect or accent that they most associate with the state of Michigan. Participants were also asked to listen to and judge the personality traits of seven different North American speakers. The results of this study indicate that …
Home Economics Programs Within Higher Education: A Typology, Sara Holtzman
Home Economics Programs Within Higher Education: A Typology, Sara Holtzman
Theses
Home economics programs through the 1920s served varied purposes within higher education. This typology addresses three types of home economics programs - teaching, extension, and academia- through the lens of characteristics, curricula, and examples. Reviewing historical events that lead into the differentiation of home economics programs throughout the United States offers unique insights into the reasons for the development of each type. This typology offers a different point of view in considering what home economics programs entailed, and defines the field as an intentional and academic program of study for the women of higher education.

Anything You Can Do?: The Influence Of Role Models On Architecture Students’ Future Career Confidence, Sarah L. Lawrence
Anything You Can Do?: The Influence Of Role Models On Architecture Students’ Future Career Confidence, Sarah L. Lawrence
Research Papers
Since its professionalization in 1857, the field of architecture has been male dominated. Traditionally, the efforts of female architects have been constrained to sectors considered “appropriate” to their gender such as historic preservation and residential and interior design (Adams and Tancred 2000, American Architectural Foundation 1988). Efforts to promote gender equality more broadly have improved academic participation and, in 2012, women accounted for 42% of architecture students nationally (The National Architectural Accrediting Board, Inc. 2012). However, during the same year, women made up only 24% of the architecture workforce (Bureau of Labor Statistics 2012). Scholars and professionals attribute this gender …

Qualitative And Visualization Methodologies For Modeling Social-Ecological Dimensions Of Regional Water Planning On The Rio Chama, Moises Gonzales, Jose A. Rivera, J. Jarrett Garcia, Sam Markwell
Journal of Contemporary Water Research and Education
Courses in modeling often employ techniques based on mathematical or other computer-based quantitative models. In this article the authors update a range of social science qualitative and visualization methodologies presented to graduate students at an interdisciplinary modeling course on water issues related to climate change. In part the modeling course featured the coupling of natural and human system dynamics in the context of acequias, gravity flow irrigation systems in New Mexico that depend on winter snowpack for water supply in the form of spring run-off. While student teams were able to employ STELLA and other models, they were free to …
Economic Foundations For The Interdisciplinary Modeling Of Water Resources Under Climate Change, Levan Elbakidze, Kelly M. Cobourn
Economic Foundations For The Interdisciplinary Modeling Of Water Resources Under Climate Change, Levan Elbakidze, Kelly M. Cobourn
Journal of Contemporary Water Research and Education
Climate change is likely to alter the scarcity of water resources, contributing to increased concern among policymakers and water managers about how to best allocate water among competing uses. Hydroeconomic models provide a means of integrating human and biophysical systems to understand the impacts of alternative water policies. This article discusses foundational concepts related to economic efficiency, with a specific focus on the equimarginal principle, and presents a modeling framework that demonstrates how to use these concepts as a starting point for an interdisciplinary model of water resources management. The modeling framework accommodates concerns about allocating water across competing uses, …

New Learning Foundations For Building Water Knowledge Bridges, Jeff Camkin, Susana Neto
New Learning Foundations For Building Water Knowledge Bridges, Jeff Camkin, Susana Neto
Journal of Contemporary Water Research and Education
Five regional meetings promoted by UNESCO in 2009 addressed the growing need for transdisciplinary approaches, holistic vision, incorporation of non-formal knowledge and views, effective participation and bottom-up action for identification of water problems and solutions. There is, however, a general context of tension and competition between specializations within different disciplines, and without specialization it is difficult to obtain formal and academic recognition. This paper presents insights into new co-learning methodologies centred in the experience of participants, inspired by and adapting the pedagogic approach developed by Paulo Freire, to the context of water management educational needs. This innovative approach has been …

Synthesis And Melody: Mozart’S Sinfonia Concertante In Eb For Violin And Viola, Jennifer Franklund
Synthesis And Melody: Mozart’S Sinfonia Concertante In Eb For Violin And Viola, Jennifer Franklund
Graduate Student Work
Mozart’s Sinfonia Concertante in Eb Major for Violin, Viola, and Orchestra (K.364), represents the pinnacle of Mozart’s travels through Mannheim and Paris. It combines elements from the Mannheim school, Salzburg tradition, and Parisian the symphonie concertante genre. Through a semiotic analysis of the first movement of the work, it is possible to find specific examples of influences from these three elements.
