Sports Evangelism On Wheels: An Evaluation Of The Efficacy And Development Of Athletic Evangelism, Keira B. Martin Oct 2025

Sports Evangelism On Wheels: An Evaluation Of The Efficacy And Development Of Athletic Evangelism, Keira B. Martin

History Senior Capstone

This thesis includes how sports evangelism operates and develops conceptually, evaluating the program Wandering Wheels as a qualitative case study. Wandering Wheels was a cycling program that began in Upland, IN in 1964 to illustrate the toughness of the Christian life. Drawing on oral histories, archival records, and documentary material, it argues that community, activism, athletic maturation, and personal spiritual growth were pivotal to Wandering Wheels' model. This evaluation demonstrates the extent to which this program exemplified the concept of sports evangelism.

Utahns’ Perceptions Of Risk Related To Poor Air Quality Differ By Demographics & Location, Bailey Hughlett, Sydney O'Shay, Cris Meier

Utah People and Environment Poll (UPEP)

Air pollution poses a significant threat to Utahns’ health, shortening Utahns’ life expectancy by two years (1). Air pollution can cause and worsen many illnesses and conditions (1). Individuals’ perceptions of how susceptible they are to health risks related to air pollution and how severe these risks are for them vary across demographic characteristics. This study investigated demographic differences in Utahns’ perceptions of health risks related to air pollution in the state. Specifically, we examined differences in how Utahns perceive risk based on their political identity, gender, education level, geographic location, and disability status. Understanding how people perceive risk across …

Cultivating A Student-Centered Approach To Peer Review Through Pre-Flection And Reflection, Jennifer P. Gray, Stephanie B. Conner Oct 2025

Cultivating A Student-Centered Approach To Peer Review Through Pre-Flection And Reflection, Jennifer P. Gray, Stephanie B. Conner

Journal of Response to Writing

Asking students to reflect on their learning experiences during a first-year course may not be a radical idea; however, asking them to pre-flect and then reflect on their experiences is an approach that can help set the scene for an effective learning moment. In our Teaching Tip, we detail an activity used in a first-year English Composition course that encourages students to think and pre-flect first, prior to a peer-review activity, which contributes to a more thorough student learning experience. Taking time for pre-flection and reflection can help students question their own contributions in the classroom community (Bean, 2011) and …

Joint Control On Stream Direction And Pothole Axis Formation In The Lower Chesapeake Group, Southeastern King William County, Virginia, Amy E. Edwards Oct 2025

Joint Control On Stream Direction And Pothole Axis Formation In The Lower Chesapeake Group, Southeastern King William County, Virginia, Amy E. Edwards

Virginia Journal of Science

Multiple heavy rain events in the last few decades, three in particular: Hurricane Isabel (2003), Tropical Depression Gaston (2004), and Hurricane Irene (2011), produced noteworthy downcutting of numerous streams in two adjacent watersheds in the Virginia Coastal Plain in southeastern King William County, Virginia. The downcutting has exposed joint sets in the Chesapeake Group clays in streambeds with yellowish gray clay, as well as a series of potholes in a streambed with a blueish gray clay. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that joints in the streambeds in these two watersheds control stream direction and pothole …

The Teaching Librarian's Role In College Reading, Lori Spradley Oct 2025

The Teaching Librarian's Role In College Reading, Lori Spradley

The Southeastern Librarian

Reading is an essential function for everything people learn. The main goal of reading is for readers to interpret, comprehend, and receive meaning from the text. Academic reading differs from standard reading. It is a complex form implemented throughout all subjects in higher educational institutions. Academic reading involves a detailed and critical approach, whereas standard reading is casual and typically involves briefly skimming over information. Students entering college are often unprepared to comprehend the complicated reading materials and manage the heavy reading load required for their class assignments. To be successful in college, students must understand different terminology and styles …

Printz Award Titles In Mississippi Public Libraries: A Collection Analysis, Ally Watkins, Harley Rogers, Melissa Dennis

The Southeastern Librarian

The Michael L. Printz Award is presented annually by the Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA) to recognize one book as the Printz Award winner and up to four books as Honor books. In areas of rapid growth like young adult (YA) publishing, librarians may add books recognized by an award as part of their collection development practice. The number of Printz Award winner and Honor books in a Mississippi library’s holdings can be viewed as a standard to see if Mississippi is falling behind or keeping up with trends in young adult publishing. Building on research completed for an …

Convergence Of Competition Law And Constitutional Rights: A Comparative Study Of The Whatsapp (India) And Facebook (Germany) Cases, Anush Ganesh, Krusha Bhatt Oct 2025

Convergence Of Competition Law And Constitutional Rights: A Comparative Study Of The Whatsapp (India) And Facebook (Germany) Cases, Anush Ganesh, Krusha Bhatt

Yearbook of Antitrust and Regulatory Studies

As society advances toward a digital economy with increasing dependence on internet-based services, data has attained prominence as an essential currency supporting market power. This paper examines the emerging jurisprudence on excessive data collection by dominant digital platforms, comparing approaches developed in India and the European Union. The Indian approach, exemplified by the WhatsApp Privacy (2025) decision, integrates competition law with constitutional protections, particularly the right to privacy under Article 21 of the Indian Constitution. Meanwhile, the European approach, crystallized in the Facebook Germany case, integrates competition law with data protection principles enshrined in the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). …

Competitive Harms Of Unfair Commercial Practices In The E-Commerce Platforms Market: The Way Forward For Asean, Mei Fei Lee, Tze Chin Ong

Yearbook of Antitrust and Regulatory Studies

The intricacies of unfair commercial practices within the e-commerce platforms market highlight a critical and urgent necessity for an evolution in both consumer protection and competition laws.

This article examines the interplay between consumer protection law and competition law in addressing unfair commercial practices of e-commerce platforms. The large-scale deployment of unfair commercial practices by e-commerce platforms may result in anti-competitive effects, thereby undermining fair and effective market competition. …

Bride Abduction In Rural Ethiopia: A Multilevel Analysis Of Influences, Impact, And Intervention Strategies, Sydney Dragovich Oct 2025

Bride Abduction In Rural Ethiopia: A Multilevel Analysis Of Influences, Impact, And Intervention Strategies, Sydney Dragovich

Global Studies Senior Capstone

Bride abduction in rural Ethiopia is a harmful traditional practice that often goes unchallenged by both communities and law enforcement. This paper provides a multilevel analysis of legal frameworks, cultural influences, and socioeconomic factors sustaining the practice, and discusses the far-reaching impact on affected individuals and communities. Examining interventions that have successfully addressed gender-based violence in other contexts suggests that multicomponent community mobilization, improved procedural frameworks, and engagement with local leaders are essential to effectively addressing bride abduction in rural Ethiopia.

The Catholic Church And Their Response To The Rise Of Human Rights Abuses By The Military Regimes In Argentina And Brazil: A Comparative Analysis On The Argentine And Brazilian Church From The 1960’S To The 1980’S, Mya Miller

Global Studies Senior Capstone

This study is primarily focused on the Catholic Church's role in Argentina and Brazil throughout the 1960's to 1980's. It explores the historical and political context of Latin America amidst Cold War influence which resulted in the rise of military dictatorships who resorted to violence due to their strong political views. The Catholic Church, at the time, was experiencing deep internal tension which, in some cases, lead to an unfortunate lack of action despite their vast influence and their ability to aid their communities in need.
