The Effects Of Sport And Physical Activity On Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder In Youth From Mass Trauma Populations, Sydney De Victoria-Michel
The Effects Of Sport And Physical Activity On Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder In Youth From Mass Trauma Populations, Sydney De Victoria-Michel
Honors Program Theses
This project will focus on the effects of exercise and sport on Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). PTSD can be debilitating to those who suffer, and incredibly confusing when children are involved. Feelings of rage, anger, depression and anxiety can render individuals incapable of normal day-to-day activities. Traditional treatment options offer individual and group therapy in which the patients simply share their feelings and experiences. Although there have been a vast number of studies and texts published on PTSD sufferers using treatment based on psychotherapy, there has been little done to document effects of exercise and physical activity on PTSD. Despite …
Postville: The Emotional Consequences Applying Diagnostic Criteria To A Unique Event, Mollie Katherine Burke
Postville: The Emotional Consequences Applying Diagnostic Criteria To A Unique Event, Mollie Katherine Burke
Honors Program Theses
Group interviews were conducted with small groups of Guatemalan women who were affected by the immigration raid in Postville, Iowa. During these interviews, participants responded to questions about emotional reactions in the months following the raid, as well as current emotional states and functioning. The women reported several negative effects, including emotional, social, and economic hardship during the months between the raid and the interviews. The way in which these responses correlate to the traditional model for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder allows insight into the appropriateness of diagnostic criteria. As similar raids are conducted, it is vital to have an understanding …
An Application Of Input-Output Analysis To Pollution, Paul Burkander
An Application Of Input-Output Analysis To Pollution, Paul Burkander
Senior Honors Theses and Projects
Using data on pollution emissions from over 20,000 facilities in the United States, we find most pollution is released by a small number of firms, and that there is no correlation between the amount of pollution released and socioeconomic indicators such as income. We apply Leontief’s method of input output analysis to determine pollution generated both by demand for final goods and inter-sector demand for intermediary goods. We find the sector that generated the most pollution in 2002, both in production of final goods and in use of intermediary goods, was primary nonferrous metal products. The analysis of several sectors, …
Propellant Tank Pressurization Modeling For A Hybrid Rocket, Margaret Mary Fernandez
Propellant Tank Pressurization Modeling For A Hybrid Rocket, Margaret Mary Fernandez
Theses
A basic hybrid rocket oxidizer delivery system utilizes the self-pressurizing nature of a liquid oxidizer at ambient temperatures in conjunction with a non-condensable pressurant to provide a high oxidizer tank pressure that drives liquid oxidizer flow to the combustion chamber. In this study, the oxidizer fluid is nitrous oxide which produces high vapor pressures at ambient temperatures, and helium is the pressurant. The goal of this thesis is to provide a theoretical model that predicts the pressure draining history of the oxidizer tank to within ± 5% of experiment. The validity of simple thermodynamically-based models has not been considered for …
Phosphorus Implants For Off-State Improvement Of Soi Cmos Fabricated At Low Temperature, Siddhartha Singh
Phosphorus Implants For Off-State Improvement Of Soi Cmos Fabricated At Low Temperature, Siddhartha Singh
Theses
A study on the influence of phosphorus implanted source/drain features on the off-state performance of transistors fabricated in thin-film crystalline silicon at low temperature is presented. Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) thin film transistors (TFTs) were fabricated on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrates; both NFET and PFET devices in the same p-type layer. Lightly Doped Drain (LDD) features were implemented on NFETs, and a surface-halo source barrier (N-barrier) was implemented on PFETs, using a common implant step. A new mask set was designed with fine resolution of gate offset to investigate small changes in placement of the LDD/ N-barrier structures. The focus …
Computational Analysis Of Ultraviolet Reactors, Xiang Li
Computational Analysis Of Ultraviolet Reactors, Xiang Li
Theses
Disinfection of water treatment using ultraviolet (UV) light has received wide recognition as an important contribution to the protection of public health. To ensure a UV disinfection system that can deliver the required UV dose, analytical and numerical methods have been used to evaluate the flow field of the UV reactor. A Multiple Point Source Summation (MPSS) method was used to estimate the radiation intensity field, with the utilization of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technique. To couple the analytical model with numerical simulations, a user friendly interface software was developed to calculate the UV dosage distribution. In addition a UV …

The barcodes and Radio Frequency Identification tags that are being used during manufacturing, assembly, warehousing, and distribution could also be reused at the end of the product lifecycle for an identification of the correct disassembly process that would result in recycling of its components. The barcodes or RFID tags can be helpful in identifying objects in terms of sustainable development, regarding disassembly, recycling and reuse. In this paper, the analysis of the current applications of RFID Technology in the final phase of the product lifecycle will be presented. The simulation of the disassembly process supported by both barcode and RFID-enabled …

The Coming Showdown Over University Endowments: Enlisting The Donors, Sarah E. Waldeck
The Coming Showdown Over University Endowments: Enlisting The Donors, Sarah E. Waldeck
Fordham Law Review
This Essay focuses on the discordance between universities with particularly large endowments and what is occurring in the rest of higher education, particularly with respect to skyrocketing tuition and a growing institutional wealth gap. The Essay considers absolute endowment values, the amount of endowment per student, and expense-endowment ratios at sixty private universities. It concludes that a small number of schools have an excess endowment, and then provides a convenient proxy for determining when an endowment is so large that it should receive less preferential tax treatment. The Essay then considers the effects that large endowments have at their home …

For-Profit Philanthropy, Dana Brakman Reiser
For-Profit Philanthropy, Dana Brakman Reiser
Fordham Law Review
This Essay examines Google’s adoption of the novel and unorthodox for-profit philanthropy model. Google created a division of its for-profit company that is tasked with pursuing philanthropic activities. Specifically, this division is responsible for addressing the global issues of climate change, poverty, and emerging diseases. Of course, companies have long blended philanthropic and business objectives. They make contributions, commit to corporate social responsibility, or even form as social enterprises. For-profit philanthropy, though, differs from these familiar techniques in both structure and scale. Likewise, for-profit philanthropy stands in stark contrast to the nonprofit, tax-exempt form of organization typically used by those …
Unbundling Fair Uses, Pamela Samuelson
Unbundling Fair Uses, Pamela Samuelson
Fordham Law Review
The copyright fair use caselaw is more coherent and more predictable than many commentators seem to believe. Fair use cases tend to fall into common patterns, or what this Article calls policy-relevant clusters. The policies underlying modern fair use law include promoting freedom of speech and of expression, the ongoing progress of authorship, learning, access to information, truth telling or truth seeking, competition, technological innovation, and the privacy and autonomy interests of users. If one analyzes putative fair uses in light of cases previously decided in the same policy cluster, it is generally possible to predict whether a use is …
Adding Insult To Injury? The Untoward Impact Of Requiring More Than De Minimus Injury In An Eighth Amendment Excessive Force Case, Robyn D. Hoffman
Adding Insult To Injury? The Untoward Impact Of Requiring More Than De Minimus Injury In An Eighth Amendment Excessive Force Case, Robyn D. Hoffman
Fordham Law Review
This Note explores the conflict over whether a prisoner must suffer more than de minimis injury to sustain an Eighth Amendment excessive force claim. It examines this conflict against the backdrop of the various standards the U.S. Supreme Court adopted in its Eighth Amendment prison conditions jurisprudence between 1976 and 1992, principally focusing on the 1992 Hudson v. McMillian decision. Moreover, this Note considers the intersection of “the evolving standards of decency,” the “hands-off doctrine,” and the Eighth Amendment injury requirement. Ultimately, this Note advocates that excessive force—when meted out as punishment—violates the Eighth Amendment’s prohibition on cruel and unusual …
Untying Our Hands: The Case For Uniform Personal Jurisdiction Over "Libel Tourists", Todd W. Moore
Untying Our Hands: The Case For Uniform Personal Jurisdiction Over "Libel Tourists", Todd W. Moore
Fordham Law Review
This Note analyzes the growing trend of “Libel Tourism,” wherein a plaintiff files a defamation lawsuit in a foreign forum primarily to avail himself of its plaintiff-friendly libel laws. Many critics of the practice argue that (1) such claims can effectively circumvent the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, and (2) U.S. courts should be able to adjudicate the enforceability of such foreign judgments in the United States. In light of recent legislative developments, this Note focuses with particularity on whether, and in what instances, U.S. courts may assert personal jurisdiction over libel tourists for the purpose of issuing such …
Hedges Or Thickets: Protecting Investors From Hedge Fund Managers' Conflicts Of Interest, Ryan Sklar
Hedges Or Thickets: Protecting Investors From Hedge Fund Managers' Conflicts Of Interest, Ryan Sklar
Fordham Law Review
This Note examines the conflicts of interest that hedge fund managers face and the negative effects that these conflicts can have on hedge fund investors. Taking a bifurcated approach, this Note analyzes the regulation of hedge funds at both the federal and state level, focusing specifically on the regulation of conflict transactions. With an emphasis on the retailization of the hedge fund industry, this Note demonstrates the inadequacy of the safeguards from such conflicts of interest that the law currently affords investors. Given the public interest in protecting the growing number of “ordinary” investors who indirectly invest in hedge funds, …
Protections For Electronic Communications: The Stored Communications Act And The Fourth Amendment, Alexander Scolnik
Protections For Electronic Communications: The Stored Communications Act And The Fourth Amendment, Alexander Scolnik
Fordham Law Review
As e-mail and other forms of electronic communications began becoming widely used, Congress recognized the need to protect these new forms of communication from impermissible intrusion. Unsure whether the flexible approach to determining the extent of Fourth Amendment protections as announced in Katz v. United States would extend to electronic communications, Congress enacted the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) to ensure a baseline level of protection. This Note argues that the Fourth Amendment does extend to electronic communications and, therefore, the provisions of the ECPA that allow the government to access certain electronic communications without a search warrant are unconstitutional.

Disclosure, Deception, And Deep-Packet Inspection: The Role Of The Federal Trade Commission Act's Deceptive Conduct Prohibitions In The Net Neutrality Debate, Catherine J. K. Sandoval
Disclosure, Deception, And Deep-Packet Inspection: The Role Of The Federal Trade Commission Act's Deceptive Conduct Prohibitions In The Net Neutrality Debate, Catherine J. K. Sandoval
Fordham Law Review
This article examines a largely unexplored fronteir in the "Net Neutrality" debate: the Federal Trade Commisiion (FTC) Act's proscriptions against deceptive conduct as a legal limit on Internet Service Provider (ISP) discrimination against Internet traffic. ISP discrimination against certain types of Internet traffic has blossomed since 2005 when the Federal Communications COmmission (FCC), with the Supreme Court's blessings in NCTA v. Brand X and FCC, relieved ISP's from common carrier regulations that prohibited discrimination and reclassified ISPs as "information service providers." This Artcile argues taht the Internet's architecture and codes presumed common carriage, indicating that the Internet's design and industry …
