Spotify's Bundle Battle: Uncovering The Flaws Of The Music Modernization Act And The Struggle For Fair Royalties In The Streaming Era, Jessica Jilla

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

The note argues that Section 115 of the Music Modernization Act (MMA) is fundamentally flawed and fails to protect songwriters and publishers from systemic inefficiencies and exploitation. It contends that the current framework is too rigid to address emerging digital business models, necessitating a hybrid restructuring of the Mechanical Licensing Collective (MLC) and the statutory licensing system to ensure equitable compensation.

Making Sense Of Membership: Organizational Socialization Of African Immigrant Employees In U.S. Workplaces, Ikeola J. Bodunde

Theses and Dissertations--Communication

This dissertation examines how African immigrant employees make sense of organizational socialization in U.S. workplaces. As global mobility reshapes the labor force, nearly one in five U.S. workers is foreign-born, making organizational socialization an increasingly complex communicative process. Classic socialization models assume linear, uniform adjustment, yet international employees often face ambiguity, cultural mismatch, and racialized expectations that complicate early workplace experiences. Guided by sensemaking theory, this study conceptualizes socialization as an ongoing, nonlinear process through which newcomers notice cues, construct interpretations, act on provisional understandings, and revise meanings as contexts shift. Using a qualitative, interpretive design, I conducted semi-structured interviews …

U Go Girl: Millennial Women In The Workplace, Kelsey A. Curnutt

Doctor of Leadership Projects

This project focused on the professional lives and experiences of Millennial women. There is a plentitude written on the subject of Millennials as a generational cohort. Early research held a mostly negative view, with characterizations such as laziness, impatience, and unreliability. The problem here is much of it was written from the outside looking in. Likewise there is a wealth of research on women in the workplace, women in leadership, and a woman’s right to belong and be accepted as equal. The project U Go Girl: Millennial Women in the Workplace is a book manuscript which examines the lived experiences …

Unintentional Medication Discrepancies In Outpatient Cardiac Procedures: Identifying Modifiable Barriers, Julie M. Turner

DNP Projects

Background: Medication reconciliation (MR) reduces medication errors during care transitions; however, unintentional medication discrepancies (UMDs) remain common due to variable practices and lack of standardization. Patients undergoing elective cardiac procedures are particularly vulnerable given complex medication regimens.

Purpose: This quality improvement project evaluated implementation of a Medication Reconciliation Barrier Identification Checklist (MRBIC) in the cardiac catheterization laboratory to identify patient, staff, and system-level contributors to UMDs.

Methods: A quasi-experimental pre–post design was conducted at a large academic medical center. During a six-week intervention, nurses and providers completed the MRBIC during pre-procedure MR. Barrier scores were compared with …

Advancing Rural Health Equity Through Systematic Sdoh Screening- A Quality Improvement Initiative, Laura C. Combs

DNP Projects

Background: Social determinants of health (SDoH) significantly affect health outcomes and healthcare utilization, particularly in rural communities. In 2024, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services mandated SDoH screenings in the inpatient setting, with recommendation to implement in rural clinics without specifying a standardized tool, resulting in inconsistent identification of needs, e.g., food insecurity, housing instability, mental health concerns, financial strain, and transportation barriers.

Purpose: This quality improvement initiative implemented a standardized SDoH screening tool in a rural outpatient clinic to evaluate changes in referral rates to community-based resources pre- and post-implementation and to improve patient reporting of social needs. …

Just A Slip: Cognitive Distortions Associated With Lapse And Relapse In Recovery, Matthew Karr

PCOM Psychology Dissertations

Substance use rates in the United States continue to rise despite low treatment utilization. Research has indicated the function of distorted patterns of thinking that can influence the relapse process. This study aimed to examine the relationships between relapse patterns, length of abstinence, and endorsed rates of cognitive distortions on the Cognitive Distortions Scale (CDS). This study sought participants 18 years or older with a history of problematic substance use and substance use treatment within the past 2 years. Participants were recruited through social media sites. Proposed statistical analyses included Pearson’s product-moment correlation, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and multivariate analysis …

Stop The Work Stoppages: A Mixed-Mode Dispute Resolution Process To Prevent An Nba Lockout Or Strike, Kyle Cohen

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

The note argues that the NBA and NBPA should incorporate a mixed-mode dispute resolution clause—specifically a "neg-med-arb" (negotiation-mediation-arbitration) process—into future collective bargaining agreements (CBAs). By transitioning from negotiation to mediation and finally to binding arbitration, the league can ensure a successor agreement is reached in time to prevent lockouts or strikes that disrupt the season.

The Shifting Economics Of Influencer Sponsorship Disclosures, Uri Y. Hacohen

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

Conventional wisdom holds that disclosing influencer sponsorship diminishes advertising's effectiveness by triggering consumer skepticism. Responding to this perceived transparency gap, regulators have adopted mandatory disclosure regimes to address a perceived market failure: the divergence between private commercial incentives and the public interest in transparency. This Article challenges that assumption. Drawing on a large-scale social media experiment (N=600), it demonstrates that disclosures not only increase consumers' recognition of advertising but also improve their attitudes toward both influencers and brands, while significantly boosting their willingness to share promotional content. These empirical results are further supported by a comprehensive synthesis of the emerging …

Seeing Is Believing? Deepfakes In Financial Markets, Hadar Y. Jabotinsky, Michal Lavi

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

An AI-powered tool recently mimicked Warren Buffett's image and voice so convincingly that even his own family could have been deceived. This striking example highlights the transformative potential of voice cloning and deepfakes. This innovative technology leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to create hyper-realistic audio and video content. By blurring the boundaries between authenticity and synthetic creation, deepfakes make it possible to fabricate moments that never occurred. Recent advancements in AI and user-friendly software have made deepfakes more accessible andfurther contributed to the proliferation of deepfakes, enabling even individuals with minimal technical skills to produce compelling deepfakes at little to no …

Dancing On The Edge Of Copyright: Why Copyright Law Should Protect Short Dance Routines, Tianai Song

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

The note argues that the Copyright Act should be amended to extend legal protection to short dance routines, regardless of their complexity or duration. This expansion aims to prevent the unauthorized appropriation of distinctive movements and ensure that creators, particularly those from Black and marginalized communities, are fairly recognized and compensated.

Power Play: The Battle For Copyright Control In Emulation, Ryan Borja

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

The note argues that the current legal framework prioritizes commercial interests and developer rights over the preservation of older video games. To reconcile the tension between copyright protection and the public interest in cultural preservation, the analysis proposes legislative solutions such as compulsory licensing schemes or the creation of a dedicated federal preservation agency.

Some Respect Reserved? Survey Experiment Insights On The Perception Of Creative Commons And Copyright Infringement, Thomas H. Rousse

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

Since its inception, Creative Commons has introduced new ways for creators to grant licenses to the public without cost or the need for negotiation by breaking up rights provided by copyright and making a subset of those rights available to anyone willing to abide by the conditions of the license. Its widespread adoption has democratized open licensing for creators beyond the software context these licenses originated within. Although the success of Creative Commons as a community is plain, relatively little information is available about its perception by the general public. Aggressive litigation by Creative Commons licensors has put the organization …

Private Canvas, Government Expression: Protest Art & The Government Speech Doctrine, Melanie P. Rigden

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

The note argues that protest art is fundamentally incompatible with the government speech doctrine and should not be subject to its principles. It contends that applying this doctrine to political expression allows the government to suppress dissenting viewpoints and engage in censorship under the pretext of exercising its own speech rights.

Youtube Journalists And The Future Of The Fourth Estate: The Fine Line Between Journalism And Entertainment, Stephan Toljan

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

The note argues that the legal distinction between professional journalists and social media actors has blurred due to the universal accessibility of public digital platforms. It proposes eliminating the requirement of institutional affiliation for the reporter's privilege, suggesting instead that any individual who satisfies the Von Bulow factors regarding the intent to disseminate information to the public should be eligible for the privilege.

Generative Ai And The Myth Of Creativity, Abdi Aidid

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal

It has become almost commonplace to observe that artificial intelligence is straining the boundaries of intellectual property law. Artists and other creators are especially uneasy about the extent to which generative AI systems may displace original works or, when they function as creative aids, provide little in the way of meaningful IP protection. Beneath these concerns, however, lies a more fundamental doctrinal tension: despite its frequently invoked justifications, IP law has never been primarily concerned with rewarding creativity or effort. Courts have longfavored formalistic approaches and minimal thresholds for originality, deliberately avoiding judgments about artistic or aesthetic merit. Similarly, they …

Educators' Uses Of Social Capital In K-12 Book Challenges, Danielle E. Sachdeva, Sue C. Kimmel

STEMPS Faculty Publications

In this case study, we apply understandings of social capital informed by Pierre Bourdieu and Nan Lin to analyze how seven educators used their capital to navigate book censorship incidents in K-12 public schools. Our findings indicate that participants often used social capital to meet expressive goals, such as seeking support from others, and less often to meet instrumental goals like advocating for policies and legislation in support of students’ intellectual freedom. These findings have implications for practitioners, school administrators, and university faculty, especially now as an unprecedented number of books is being challenged in public institutions throughout the U.S.

The Devil Is In The Det[Ai]Ls: Ai Agents, Ghost Students, And The Crisis Of Verified Presence In An Agentic Ai World, Aras Bozkurt, Helen Crompton, Caroline Fell Kurban

STEMPS Faculty Publications

The transition from reactive Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) to agentic AI systems marks a categorical shift in digital education, moving beyond simple content generation to goal-oriented, autonomous execution. This paper explores the emergence of the “ghost student”: a digital surrogate created by the coupling of Large Language Models (the “mind”) and agentic AI browsers (the “body”). These entities are capable of navigating Learning Management Systems (LMS), engaging with content, and completing assessments with human-like mimicry, often rendering the actual learner’s presence optional. We argue that this phenomenon creates a verification gap that traditional proctoring and detection tools are structurally unable …

"It Can't Just Be One": Canadian Black Youth Perspectives On Representation And Belongings In Public Libraries, Amber Matthews, Sandie Thomas

STEMPS Faculty Publications

This study employed narrative inquiry and critical race approaches to explore Black youth's perceptions and experiences of Canadian public library programs and materials. In response to calls in Canada's Anti-Racism Strategy (2024) and Ontario's Anti-Black Racism Strategy (2025) for social service institutions to address anti-Black racism, the research examined Black youth experiences in public libraries and how these experiences relate to anti-Black racism in education and social service settings. The study was conducted in London, Ontario, with Black youth aged 13 to 24 and parents of youth using a community-based participatory research approach in partnership with the Where We Are …
