Against Genocide: Feminist Dissent, Palestine Solidarity, And The Neoliberal University, Azza Basarudin, Sabrina Alimahomed-Wilson, Araceli Esparza

Gatherings

In the context of the increasing nationwide repression of free speech and academic freedom, this article emerges from the collective scholarly and activist commitments of three women of color feminist faculty teaching at a large public university. Amidst our participation in anti-genocide organizing, we have been targeted by our university’s administration for our critiques of settler-colonial and genocidal violence in Palestine. Our intervention foregrounds an anti-war feminist ethic that insists on integrity and justice in confronting the university administration’s power to discipline faculty dissent, as well as our support for students’ political activism. Within this repressive context, we articulate a …

Menstrual Monster Or Criminal Lady?: Ella Castle, Biopower, And The Plight Of The Female Kleptomaniac In Late 19th Century America., Grace S. Teske

Madison Historical Review

On October 5, 1896, Ella Castle, a San Franciscan socialite, was arrested in London for shoplifting. In the proceeding months, Castle's trial became a transatlantic sensation, as her initial veneer as a respectable upper-class woman was replaced by the image of an ill and unstable woman suffering from kleptomania. The case of Ella Castle is representative of the larger social and economic processes that developed in the late 19th century that converged together in the diagnosis of kleptomania. One of the main transformations was the development of consumer capitalism which manifested into the new urban institution of the department store. …

Free In The Forest: Montagnards And U.S. Special Forces In Vietnam’S Central Highlands, Jake L. Brooks

Madison Historical Review

When America began to send U.S Army Special Forces to South Vietnam as advisors in the late 1950s, they needed allies that were familiar with the lush jungles of Indochina. In the Central Highlands of Vietnam, the Montagnard people partnered with the U.S. Army Special Forces in an attempt to keep their homelands safe from the Communists. As an ethnic minority, the Montagnards had been through years of abuse and cultural suppression by their ruling government; kept down by a Vietnamese dominated regime which viewed them as backwards and rebellious tribesmen. For the Green Berets that worked alongside them, the …

"The One Neglect": Lysol Feminine Hygiene Products And The Gendered Body, Katherine Blandford

Madison Historical Review

This paper investigates the gendered history of cleanliness and advertising through Lysol feminine hygiene advertisements in the United States from 1936-1950. Lysol, the disinfectant, was once sold as a feminine hygiene douche up until the 1960s. Lysol douches were promoted to women, specifically married women, through advertisements that focused on portraying the female body as dirty and unclean. Moreover, the advertisements promoted the idea that women who did not use Lysol to douche were solely responsible for any marital problem that arose, like cheating or divorce. These Lysol advertisements showcase a dark history of the pervasive nature of sexist rhetoric …

Sense Of Abundance Effect On Happiness, Samantha Macneil, Philip Watkins

2026 Symposium

The purpose of this study was to see how sense of abundance affects overall happiness. Understanding this can help us to understand how our subjective well-being is connected to gratitude. A sense of abundance has been proposed to be crucial to trait gratitude (Watkins, 2014), but few studies have investigated the importance of this construct. Our data comes from a related study that we conducted analyzing interpretation biases characteristic of gratitude. We had 165 participants complete all parts of the administered survey online. It contained two measures of abundance, happiness, and trait gratitude. The happiness scales were the Subjective Happiness …

"Hopefully This Thing Is Legit:" Student Experiences Of Administrative Burden With A Promise Program, Rosa Maria Acevedo, Denisa Gándara, Sasha Smith

Journal of Student Financial Aid

Despite the expansion of tuition-free college (Promise) programs as a financial aid strategy, little is known about how students learn about, navigate, and experience them. This qualitative case study examines how second-year students encounter administrative burdens in a Promise program (PROMISE) at a large university that seeks to minimize compliance costs. Findings reveal a tradeoff between ease of access (low compliance costs) and program-related information (high learning costs). Minimal eligibility requirements contrast with limited marketing, leaving students misinformed about key aspects of their aid. Elevated learning and psychological costs generate stress and uncertainty. Despite these challenges, students draw on navigational, …

Journal of Student Financial Aid

This paper explores the financial challenges and financial wellness of first-year students from a large, public, urban research university in the Midwest. Utilizing a financial wellness lens, we uncover students’ financial preparation and identify key financial challenges they face in managing college expenses while exploring how institutions can better support students in understanding and planning for the financial costs of higher education. Our findings highlight students were encouraged to attend college but lacked financial preparation and support, limiting their ability to manage their college expenses; the financial advice and resources provided often did not align with students’ actual experiences and …

Behavioral Science Applications In Collegiate Athlete Nutrition And Sleep: A Scoping Review, Maryam Yuhas, Katherine M. Kidwell, Olivia Moskuna, Rajib Mandal, Jessica L. Garay

Nutrition - All Scholarship

Nutrition and sleep are key health behaviors supporting athletic performance. Collegiate athletes in the United States (U.S.) are at high risk of insufficient dietary intake and nightly sleep given the competing demands of elite sports and academics. Researchers have developed interventions to improve collegiate athletes’ sleep and nutrition, either individually or collectively. However, progress in understanding how best to create sustained behavior change in this population has been slow. This may be due to the lack of application of behavioral science principles such as lack of a guiding theory, effective strategies, and consideration of implementation contexts. This scoping review takes …

No Cuts: How Hayao Miyazaki Highlights The United States’ Inadequacy In Protecting Foreign Authors’ Integrity, Bridget Johns

UC Law SF Communications and Entertainment Journal

Although the United States joined the Berne Convention in 1989, U.S. copyright law reflects a restricted approach to moral rights protection. Unlike many Berne signatories, the U.S. largely frames copyright as an economic right rather than as a way to protect artistic integrity. Japanese law, by contrast, treats moral rights as central to creative work protections, emphasizing the importance of the work’s dignity and author’s intent. This incongruity has significant consequences in the globalized era, particularly when foreign works are distributed within the U.S. Weak statutory moral rights protections leave authors vulnerable to misattribution and distortion without meaningful recourse. This …

This was accomplished by administering a survey that integrated a household task instrument to measure mental load and demographic information. The survey was distributed online via social media. Participants took the survey on Qualtrics. 161 participants responded to the survey.

Exploring Black, Indigenous, And Other People Of Color’S Opinions, Experiences, And Breadth Of Knowledge On Indigenous Psychedelic Healing Methods For Mental Health In The United States, Daiyah Lanae Williams

ETD Collection

Psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy (PAP) is gaining increased attention for its potential to address mental health concerns; however, little is known about how Black, Indigenous, and other People of Color (BIPOC) perceive psychedelic medicine within the sociocultural realities that shape their mental healthcare experiences. The current study examined attitudes toward and willingness to use psychedelic medicine for mental health among BIPOC adults in the U.S., including investigating how attunement to spirituality/transcendence, meaningful exposure to prior psychedelic experiences, medical mistrust, and importance of identity concordance with providers contribute to these attitudes and willingness. Fifty participants were recruited to complete an online survey with …

The Relationship Between Parental Intrinsic Emotion Regulation And Extrinsic Child-Focused Emotion Regulation On Parent Stress, Leigh M. Richards

ETD Collection

Parenting stress is a significant public health concern, which research indicates is closely tied to parents’ emotional regulation capacities. Parents must manage their emotions (intrinsic regulation) while guiding their children’s emotional development (extrinsic child-focused emotion regulation). Research has examined these components independently but there is little empirical work exploring how a parent’s intrinsic emotion regulation capabilities and extrinsic child-focused emotion regulation capabilities jointly relate to their stress. The purpose of this present study was to examine how parents’ ability to regulate their own emotions and respond to their child’s emotions relates to their parenting and general stress. Specifically, this study …

Dying To Be Heard: The Power Of Words In The Lived Experience Of “Severe And Enduring Anorexia Nervosa”, Limor Weinstein

ETD Collection

Anorexia nervosa, especially when it lasts for several years, is one of the most challenging illnesses to treat and has a high mortality rate. Despite advancements in treatment and care, over 25% of individuals with severe and enduring anorexia nervosa do not fully recover, with many continuing to live with the illness for many years, often facing serious consequences such as disability, early death, or suicide. This Heideggerian phenomenological study explores the lived experiences of individuals who have been diagnosed with anorexia nervosa for over seven years, with a specific focus on communication and messages received, related to the illness …
