Extra-Terrestrial: A Television Pilot Script, Landon Adams

Symposium of Student Scholars

How do you make a home out of a place you don’t feel welcomed? This is the plight of Beatrix Ivy, a passionate fashionista, humanoid-martian who dreams of opening her own fashion business. The only issue: fashion does not exist on Mars. She impulsively decides to ditch her hypercritical mother in pursuit of Planet Earth. Destination? Paris, France. However, a GPS malfunction lands her in the unknown town of Paris, Georgia. Mistaken for a drag queen, Beatrix is met with hostility from the bigoted locals, including local darling SunRay, an equally talented fashion designer. Beatrix eventually finds companionship in a …

Reviving Neurodivergent Workplace, Nayeli Gonzalez, Robin Puttock

Symposium of Student Scholars

The post-pandemic era has left the United States with nearly one billion square feet of vacant office space, creating significant economic and social challenges. Alongside this, many employees continue to work from home, often experiencing adverse effects on their physical and mental well-being due to environments that are not conducive to long-term productivity. Addressing these issues, this thesis explores how outdated and underutilized office spaces can be revived, reinvented, and renovated to not only attract employees back to the workplace but also to accommodate the unique needs of neurodivergent individuals. Neurodivergent people, representing millions globally, often encounter sensory overstimulation and …

Roots Of Resilience: Designing Culturally Informed Healing Spaces For Asylum Seekers, Michelle Guzman, Robin Puttock

Symposium of Student Scholars

This thesis explores the role of culturally sensitive architectural design in immigration asylum centers, focusing on how these spaces can better support the well-being, dignity, and cultural identity of Hispanic/Latino asylum seekers. Current asylum centers often prioritize efficiency and functionality over the emotional and psychological needs of their occupants, resulting in environments that feel institutional, impersonal, and disconnected from the cultural identities of displaced individuals. This lack of consideration for the cultural background and emotional recovery of asylum seekers exacerbates the challenges they face, including isolation, trauma, and disorientation.

The research in this thesis seeks to address these issues by …

Engaging Our Elders: Reprograming The Architecture Of Continued Care Facilities To Engage The Community, Mercy Koehler, Robin Puttock

Symposium of Student Scholars

The elderly are one of the most overlooked groups in our population. The poor attention to the design of their living spaces is a sad testament to this reality. Designed like hospitals and prisons, nursing homes are sterile environments, uninviting to guests and suffocating to residents. The person-centered care of new assisted living communities is an improvement, but often the design of these institutions is governed by economic factors and architectural code requirements that continue to create isolated environments. To create truly inclusive spaces for our growing elderly population, care-centered design must go a step further and find programmatic ways …

Variant Minds - Designing For Neurodiversity In Offices, Maya Schiltz, Robin Puttock

Symposium of Student Scholars

High-functioning adults with cognitive disorders such as ADHD, Autism, and Anxiety are often overlooked when considering solutions to help neurodiverse individuals thrive. While low-functioning neurodiverse adults often receive support through specialized programs and care facilities, high-functioning neurodiverse individuals are expected to integrate into traditional work environments, which can severely impede their ability to succeed. Despite growing awareness around creating neurodivergent-friendly workplaces, many office designs continue to follow a “one-size-fits-all” approach, typically featuring open desk arrays, a few private offices, and meeting rooms. This setup fails to provide adequate separation from distractions such as noise, smells, visual glare, and other sensory …

Machine Learning Approaches For Predicting Dental Caries In Permanent Molars Of Children And Adolescents Using Nhanes 2011-16 Data, Pritam Deb, Christina Scherrer Phd, Lin Li Phd

Symposium of Student Scholars

Dental caries remains a prevalent chronic disease among children, significantly affecting their quality of life, educational outcomes, and school attendance. Between 2011 and 2016, caries affected 17.4% of children aged 6-11 and 56.8% of adolescents aged 12-19, with higher incidences among non-Hispanic Black and Mexican American youth, and those from lower-income families. This study aims to develop a robust machine learning model to predict the presence of decayed, missing, or filled permanent molars (DMFT) in children and adolescents using demographic, dietary, and oral health examination data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) for the years 2011 to …

The Effects Of Perceived Stress On Emotional Response To Video Stimuli​, Mk Kerlin, Aidan Mcmcolligan, Lamar Latella, Tim Martin, Ebony M. Glover

Symposium of Student Scholars

The aim of the present research is to understand how stress affects physiological response to emotional stimuli. Stress can affect the way we respond to the videos/media we are increasingly exposed to as a result of social media. This relationship highlights the need for new ways of stress management. This study examines how the effects of perceived stress to emotional videos impacts emotional responses. Stress is known to influence emotional reactivity. Understanding this relationship can provide insights into managing stress and improving emotional well-being. In this experiment, participants were given a perceived stress scale questionnaire (PSS) to measure current stress …

Pruitt-Igoe Re-Imagined, Emmanuel Olayisade, Ehsan Sheikholharam Ma

Symposium of Student Scholars

My thesis explores the transformation of the Pruitt-Igoe housing project Demolished IN 1972, from a symbol of modernist failure to an Alternative vision for a collective living site. This transformation underscores the complexities of urban design, socio-economic challenges, and the potential for adaptive reuse in addressing contemporary housing needs. The first section of my study will delve into the history of Pruitt-Igoe, analyzing the factors that led to its failure and the issues present at its inception. Secondly, I will explore the intricacies of urban design and the socio-economic challenges that played a role in its downfall. This part of …

Exploring The Impact Of Age, Sex, And Early Alcohol Initiation On Current Drinking And Binge Drinking Behaviors Among Adolescents And Young Adults, Jessica Wolwark, Kevin Gittner

Symposium of Student Scholars

This study explores the impact of early alcohol initiation, age, and sex on current drinking and binge drinking behaviors among adolescents and young adults. Utilizing data from the 2021 National Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS), we analyzed the relationship between age at first alcohol use, sex, and drinking behaviors. Our primary hypothesis suggests that individuals who began drinking at age 13 or younger are more likely to currently consume alcohol and binge drink, with men being more susceptible to binge drink compared to women. The study employs descriptive and inferential statistical methods, including frequency analyses, histograms, and bar charts, to …

Dynamic Resource Allocation For Beyond 5g Networks Through Uav-Assisted Communication, Iman Adel Sami

Thesis/ Dissertation Defenses

In response to the surging demand for cellular services, driven partly by the post-COVID-19 era, network operators are grappling with the challenge of enhancing network capacity and throughput. Fifth-generation mobile technology and beyond (6G) with techniques like network slicing are emerging as promising solutions for faster data speeds and improved network performance across various devices. In network slicing, distributing radio resources between different virtual operators (slices) is often performed in a static manner. Therefore, due to the dynamic user demand, the users of one virtual operator could suffer from a lack of resources, whereas another virtual operator with overlapping cells …
