The Unconstitutionality Of The Current Housing Arrangements For Intersex Prisoners, Nicole Antonopoulos Jan 2015

The Unconstitutionality Of The Current Housing Arrangements For Intersex Prisoners, Nicole Antonopoulos

UC Law Constitutional Quarterly

The perpetuation of a binary society with regards to sex creates problems for intersex persons who do not easily categorize as male or female. The current housing and treatment of intersex prisoners are based partly on this classic male-female dichotomy. This Note sheds light on sex as a spectrum, and examines the potential constitutional violations that arise from the current prison housing arrangements and treatment. It also analyzes the experiences of intersex prisoner Miki Ann DiMarco and her constitutional challenges as brought forward in DiMarco v. Wyoming Department of Corrections. Additionally, this Note suggests that intersex discrimination is a form …


The New Data Marketplace: Protecting Personal Data, Electronic Communications, And Individual Privacy In The Age Of Mass Surveillance Through A Return To A Property-Based Approach To The Fourth Amendment, Megan Blass Jan 2015

The New Data Marketplace: Protecting Personal Data, Electronic Communications, And Individual Privacy In The Age Of Mass Surveillance Through A Return To A Property-Based Approach To The Fourth Amendment, Megan Blass

UC Law Constitutional Quarterly

The Supreme Court's Fourth Amendment jurisprudence is often critiqued, particularly the Court's refusal to acknowledge the distinction between secrecy, limited disclosure, and public disclosure. The Snowden leaks only fueled the fervor. With the revelations about the National Security Agency's PRISM, XKeyscore, and similar mass surveillance programs came renewed concern and discussion about the legal and regulatory framework protecting Americans' privacy. Privacy is en vogue.

The critiques of Katz v. United States and celebrations of Justice Sotomayor's concurrence in United States v. Jones are well-worn. As an alternative, this Note proposes vesting property rights in personal data and electronic communications to …

Research was conducted in partnership with a regional consulting firm. Survey data was collected through MechanicalTurk. A total of 2,922 participants from eighteen business sectors across the United States and Canada were represented. Level of trust was shown to significantly impact intentions …

Fear In The World Of Social Media, Jamie E. Hildreth Jan 2015

Fear In The World Of Social Media, Jamie E. Hildreth

Criminology & Criminal Justice Theses - Archive

Many researchers believe that perception of crime is formed by how crime is presented or framed by news media. News media has previously been society's only gateway to the rest of the world. "Violent crimes are prominent and presented as the norm in news media and commercial television programs, thus providing millions of people with a daily diet of rape, murder and drug abuse" (Greer, 2005). Emergence of social media may be removing many of the controls news media had in place with instantaneous, supposedly unbiased, unfiltered information. Social media may also be exacerbating the effects of news media by …

Encouraging Latino Students Through Relational Teaching: A Case Study In Lawrence, Massachusetts, Ohilda Difo Jan 2015

Encouraging Latino Students Through Relational Teaching: A Case Study In Lawrence, Massachusetts, Ohilda Difo

MA IDS Thesis Projects

Within the next 10 years, the majority-minority ratio in the United States will shift, and people of color will outnumber white Americans. In 2014, for the first time in history, a majority of students in K-12 were children of color. Although the student demographic of public schools has changed, the demographic of teachers and the style of teaching remain archaic and catered to white students. This qualitative study focuses on the lowest educated population in the U.S. – Latino youth. The project is a case study on a highly concentrated Latino community in the city of Lawrence, Massachusetts, where 71% …
