A little over a year ago, Deane Kenny Stryker was taken from our community and the world too soon. Her memory remains close to our hearts and continues to inspire us.
A Home Death On Peaks Island, Chuck Radis
A Home Death On Peaks Island, Chuck Radis
Akesis
I believe that those who die, particularly those like my patient Martha, can teach the living a great deal about “Always Forward.” All too often I find that the immediate family of the deceased becomes stuck in grief, unable to move beyond their loss. My patient Martha, by allowing her children to participate directly in bathing her after she passed was very wise in anticipating how powerful grief can be. She wanted the healing to take place even on the day she passed. And I have to think that her insistence that I come by the house the night she …

Museum specimens play an increasingly important role in predicting the outcomes and revealing the consequences of anthropogenically driven disruption of the biosphere. As ecological communities respond to ongoing environmental change, host-parasite interactions are also altered. This shifting landscape of host-parasite associations creates opportunities for colonization of different hosts and emergence of new pathogens, with implications for wildlife conservation and management, public health, and other societal concerns. Integrated archives that document and preserve mammal specimens along with their communities of associated parasites and ancillary data provide a powerful resource for investigating, anticipating, and mitigating the epidemiological, ecological, and evolutionary impacts of …
Beyond The Standard Singing Languages: Incorporating Czech Art Song Into The Collegiate Voice Studio, Lauren Elizabeth Hartman
Beyond The Standard Singing Languages: Incorporating Czech Art Song Into The Collegiate Voice Studio, Lauren Elizabeth Hartman
Open Access Dissertations
The standard singing languages for the average American collegiate singer often consist of English, German, French, and Italian. These languages contain some of the most frequently performed vocal repertoire used to develop and teach young singers. However, using recently published resources, teachers can expand their students’ repertoire choices to other languages, such as Czech. Compelling reasons for including Czech art song repertoire in the voice studio are (1) the similarities between the International Phonetic Alphabet symbols of the standard singing languages and Czech phonetics, and (2) the musical and stylistic similarities between nineteenth century Czech art song and other nineteenth …
Causal Inference Approaches For Understanding The Social Determinants Of Substance Abuse And Depression In The 21st Century: The Opioid Epidemic And The Great Recession, Samuel L. Swift
Open Access Dissertations
The great recession and the opioid epidemic are two defining public health events of the 21st century. Within the context of these two events, the 21st century has been marked by increases in mortality due to suicide, alcohol misuse, and drug overdose among Americans, and especially among white Americans, warranting further epidemiological investigation. For example, in recent years a black-white disparity in opioid pain reliever (OPR) misuse has emerged such that white Americans are more likely to suffer opioid overdoses or opioid related hospitalizations than black Americans. There is evidence to support that much of the opioid epidemic is related …
Extremes In Complex Systems, Minzhang Zheng
Extremes In Complex Systems, Minzhang Zheng
Open Access Dissertations
This dissertation focuses on extreme behavior in complex systems. Extreme events are an emergent property of many complex, nonlinear systems in which various interdependent components and their interaction lead to a competition between organized (interaction dominated) and irregular (fluctuation dominated) behavior. In this work we investigated several aspects of extreme events in pro-ISIS online social network system and the subsecond financial exchange market. We started by uncovering an ultrafast ecology driving the online support, featuring self-organized aggregates whose evolution exhibits novel adaptive mechanisms in response to external pressure. Then we investigated the anomalous contagion, we provided and analyzed a simple, …
Random Phase Modulation Of Stationary Light Fields With Applications In Biophotonics, Xi Chen
Random Phase Modulation Of Stationary Light Fields With Applications In Biophotonics, Xi Chen
Open Access Dissertations
Light modulation is a vital component in optical communications, imaging and sensing systems. It imparts information on the optical wave carriers and establishes the reliability of the communication links. In imaging systems, a modulated light source has the potential in exceeding the diffraction limit and achieving better contrast in images. Improving the performance of light modulating devices such as Spatial Light Modulators (SLMs), multiplexers, couplers and polarization controllers can substantially benefit optical sensing and signal processing. Phase modulation of light, as an important format of light modulation, has gained appreciably more attention than its amplitude modulation due to its remarkable …
Data From Non-Musical Material As Spectral Compositional Resources, As Utilized In The Orchestral Work, Hello Universe, Anruo Cheng
Open Access Dissertations
Hello Universe is a chamber orchestra piece in three movements: “One Small Step for Man”, “Ad astra”, and “Hello Universe.” It was inspired by and celebrates the decades of humanity’s exploration of the universe since the first US Apollo 11 mission landed on the Moon in 1969. The topics of the three movements are: humankind’s first moon landing; the sounds of outer space; and communication between humanity and extraterrestrial lifeforms. My compositional process includes raw material collection, non- musical data mining, translation from non-musical data to musical materials, and applying those materials in orchestral music composition. In this work, I …
Current Views On Teacher Word Choice In American College Flute Lessons, Hannah Christine Weiss
Current Views On Teacher Word Choice In American College Flute Lessons, Hannah Christine Weiss
Open Access Dissertations
The purpose of this study is to explore the factors that influence a teacher’s word choice in American private college-level flute lessons. Most of the research that has been conducted on music instruction focuses on technical methods for the purpose of enhancing curricula. Some research exists which explores the more psychological side of teaching and learning; however, the research that studies the private music lesson often seeks to understand either the teacher-student relationship through the eyes of students, or to understand music teacher perceptions on the ways in which their teaching informs their performing. While many studies and publications indirectly …
Warm-Hearted Love In A Cold World: Sexuality, Nature, And Modernity In Thomas Hardy’S Tess Of The D’Urbervilles And D. H. Lawrence’S Lady Chatterley’S Lover, Ashley Beatriz Medina
Warm-Hearted Love In A Cold World: Sexuality, Nature, And Modernity In Thomas Hardy’S Tess Of The D’Urbervilles And D. H. Lawrence’S Lady Chatterley’S Lover, Ashley Beatriz Medina
Theses and Dissertations
While examining Thomas Hardy’s Tess of the d’Urbervilles and D. H. Lawrence’s Lady Chatterley’s Lover, the importance of the themes of sexuality and nature is apparent. In this thesis, the exploration of sexuality and nature being at odds with different incarnations of modernity is argued. Sexuality, in this thesis, is referring to sexual behaviors and activity. Nature is referring to both the untamed and calm wilderness. Hardy’s Tess of the d’Urbervilles displays sexuality and nature being at odds with modernity as science. In Lawrence’s Lady Chatterley’s Lover, sexuality and nature are at odds with industrial modernity. In regards to Hardy’s …

The authors of this book, Burger and Starbird, teach the reader the five main thinking strategies to become better at whatever we do and provide examples of how this thinking process can change someone’s life. The book does not have a specific …
A Retrospective Perusal Of An Unlikely Friendship In Nineteenth Century America: Frederick Douglass And William Lloyd Garrison, Melissa Ann Saenz
A Retrospective Perusal Of An Unlikely Friendship In Nineteenth Century America: Frederick Douglass And William Lloyd Garrison, Melissa Ann Saenz
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis reexamines the evolving friendship between the two most prominent U.S. abolitionists of the Nineteenth Century, Frederick Douglass and William Lloyd Garrison. The purpose is to provide a more complex picture of their friendship than one-sided antagonistic view often highlighted by scholars. While applying the political principle of egalitarianism and Aristotle’s three notions of friendship (pleasure, utility, and goodness) from Nicomachean Ethics, one can derive an alternative vista to a profound and fruitful relationship. By doing so, one can acknowledge that within their friendship, they were morally sovereign men led by reason despite the adverse events that played out …
The Loss Of Texas Unionism: A Comparative Study Of The Leadership Of Sam Houston And James Webb Throckmorton During The Secession Crisis Of 1860-1861, Jennifer Suzanne Shawgo
The Loss Of Texas Unionism: A Comparative Study Of The Leadership Of Sam Houston And James Webb Throckmorton During The Secession Crisis Of 1860-1861, Jennifer Suzanne Shawgo
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis compares and contrasts the political careers of Sam Houston and James W. Throckmorton during the Secession Crisis of 1860-1861. Despite their individual efforts to combat secession, Unionists Sam Houston and James Webb Throckmorton, betrayed the Union in favor of their loyalty to Texas. Not all Texan Unionists were created equal. Beloved Unionist heroes Sam Houston and James Webb Throckmorton were not infallible, they made mistakes and had vices like any man, and above all else, they were career politicians who had self-serving ulterior motives, aspirations, and political ambitions that did not follow hard line Unionism. Houston was a …
Functional Characterization Of The Novel Gene Cia7 From Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii, Hector Guillermo Gonzalez Cantu
Functional Characterization Of The Novel Gene Cia7 From Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii, Hector Guillermo Gonzalez Cantu
Theses and Dissertations
Heavy metal contamination presents a constant threat to biological systems. These metals interact with the catalytic-domain of enzymes, interfering with their normal rates of activity as well as inducing oxidative stress. Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is an excellent model organism used in studies of heavy metals due to its high endogenous tolerance. In C. reinhardtii, a novel gene, designated as CIA7, was isolated and hypothesized to confer tolerance to heavy metals. This was due to CIA7’s conserved Cys-residue motif and its homology in a number of bacterial metal binding proteins. This study aimed to demonstrate what role CIA7 exerts on tolerance towards …
The Survival Of The Feminine Figure Through The Reconciliation Of Nature And Logos, Daniela Nunez
The Survival Of The Feminine Figure Through The Reconciliation Of Nature And Logos, Daniela Nunez
Theses and Dissertations
This work focuses on analyzing and questioning the role two feminine protagonists play in a phallogocentric social system depicted within two novels. The research will explore the narrative and outcome experienced by Doña Bárbara and Janie Crawford, from Rómulo Gallegos’ Doña Bárbara and Zora Neale Hurston’s Their Eyes Were Watching God, in a post-colonial twentieth-century American continent. Hélène Cixous’ concept of feminine writing, which roots from her essay “The Laugh of the Medusa” and her book The Newly Born Woman will be the philosophical lens and medium of analysis for both Doña Bárbara and Their Eyes Were Watching God. Both …
The Vita Activa As A Literary Lens For George Orwell's 1984, Juanita Y. Escamilla-Deligani
The Vita Activa As A Literary Lens For George Orwell's 1984, Juanita Y. Escamilla-Deligani
Theses and Dissertations
This study explicates Hannah Arendt’s social theory and political studies and applies them as literary lens for George Orwell’s iconic dystopian novel 1984. The thesis focuses on Hannah Arendt’s The Human Condition (1958) and The Origins of Totalitarianism (1968). The Human Condition provides Arendt’s comprehensive delineation of the vita activa and its supporting social components. It explains different social components how they work interdependently to culminate in a free and public life: the vita activa. While her work stresses that democracy is not a perfect system, it is the system that best respects humanity’s attribute of plurality. The Origins of …
The War On Poverty In Laredo, Texas 1950-1980, Noe Esteban Rodriguez
The War On Poverty In Laredo, Texas 1950-1980, Noe Esteban Rodriguez
Theses and Dissertations
This study examines the impact of the War on Poverty on Laredo, Texas with the notion of Laredo exceptionalism due to its homogeneous population and culture. Primary source material was drawn mainly from articles found in the Laredo Times and interviews with Laredoans that were either associated with the War on Poverty or the Independent Club within the city. Secondary sources were used mainly to identify the motives, development, and challenges that the War on Poverty faced outside of Laredo. This study has discovered that the War on Poverty was able to achieve a greater degree of success by being …

"The Most Forgotten Unit In The Most Forgotten Theatre Of That War:" A History Of The Mars Task Force In The Burma Theatre Of World War Ii, August 1944-October 1945, Matthew James Camina
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis discusses the significance of the (MTF) in Burma during World War II and how the MTF has been generally overlooked by historians. What little historical attention the Mars Task Force has received has frequently been brief and inaccurate. The Mars Task Force was a classified Long Range Penetration Force that trekked some 300 miles behind enemy-lines and went on the offensive in Burma to weaken the Japanese in their war with the Nationalists Chinese. This epic march was on foot, with mules, and supplied through airdrops. This thesis represents one of the few studies of the Mars Task …
