Retention Factors For College Students Who Have Experienced Trauma, Deborah Klinnert Jan 2026

Retention Factors For College Students Who Have Experienced Trauma, Deborah Klinnert

All Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Other Capstone Projects

College degree attainment has been shown to positively relate to overall life satisfaction, job opportunities, and income. There continue to be equity gaps between enrollment and degree completion for marginalized groups, including students of color, first-generation students, and students from low-income families. The impact of trauma on college completion is missing among existing student success literature. Based on existing retention factors for marginalized groups, including a student’s sense of belonging, resilience, and utilization of mental health services, this study sought to examine if the same factors impact retention for those students who have experienced trauma. The sample size was extremely …


What Are Men Doing To Prevent Gender-Based Violence? Challenges And Resistance To Traditional Masculinities In Costa Rica, Fiorella Masís Aguilar Jan 2026

What Are Men Doing To Prevent Gender-Based Violence? Challenges And Resistance To Traditional Masculinities In Costa Rica, Fiorella Masís Aguilar

All Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Other Capstone Projects

Achieving gender equality and reducing violence, especially violence against women, requires men's involvement. This research focuses on understanding the actions and strategies that Costa Rican men who challenge traditional masculinities use to question or resist hegemonic traditional masculinities. Furthermore, it explores what factors influenced the development of these actions and how the participants understand that hegemonic masculinities and their actions to change them are related to gender-based violence. According to Planning Department of the Judiciary of Costa Rica, four out of five perpetrators of violent crimes are men, and eight out of ten victims are women. Using semi-structured interviews with …


Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy Following Emotional Stress: The Role Of Echocardiography In Diagnosis And Management, Ramla Warsame Jan 2026

Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy Following Emotional Stress: The Role Of Echocardiography In Diagnosis And Management, Ramla Warsame

Bachelor of Science in Diagnostic Ultrasound Projects

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, also known as stress-induced cardiomyopathy or broken heart syndrome, is a temporary weakening of the left ventricle commonly triggered by emotional or physical stress. This case study presents a 77-year-old female who developed chest pain and shortness of breath following severe emotional distress after the passing of her husband. Initial clinical findings suggested acute coronary syndrome because of electrocardiogram abnormalities and mildly elevated troponin levels. Transthoracic echocardiography demonstrated moderately reduced left ventricular systolic function with an estimated ejection fraction of 30% to 35%, severe hypokinesis of the mid and apical segments, and preserved basal contraction producing the characteristic …


Aortic Root Aneurysm Repair Complicated By The Use Of Va-Ecmo Support: A Case Study, Tristyn Gullen Jan 2026

Aortic Root Aneurysm Repair Complicated By The Use Of Va-Ecmo Support: A Case Study, Tristyn Gullen

Bachelor of Science in Diagnostic Ultrasound Projects

Assessing and monitoring a growing aortic root aneurysm through an echocardiogram is essential, as this can become life-threatening and lead to in-depth cardiovascular complications. Many individuals can live with an unknown aortic aneurysm due to the lack of symptoms until the pathology progresses and becomes deadly. By utilizing multimodality imaging such as; Transthoracic-Echocardiogram (TTE), Transesophageal-Echocardiogram (TEE), and Computed Tomography (CT), we can assess this pathology. This case study examines a 45-year-old male with significant cardiac history, including a dilated aortic root and mechanical aortic valve replacement, who has missed several routine follow-up echo appointments. Using the most recent imaging results, …


Bilateral Mature Cystic Teratomas With Ovarian Torsion In An Adolescent: A Case Report, Alessandra Riccio Jan 2026

Bilateral Mature Cystic Teratomas With Ovarian Torsion In An Adolescent: A Case Report, Alessandra Riccio

Bachelor of Science in Diagnostic Ultrasound Projects

This case report describes a fourteen-year-old premenarcheal female with one week of progressive left lower quadrant pain; prior x-rays showed a small calcified pelvic focus, and a pelvic ultrasound two years after revealed a left complex cystic and solid ovarian mass with echogenic foci and altered doppler flow. The patient was transferred to a pediatric hospital for emergency exploratory laparotomy with detorsion and resection of the left ovarian mass; intraoperative inspection found a contralateral mass that was resected two weeks later. Histopathology confirmed the presence of bilateral mature cystic teratomas (MCTs) without malignant features. This case highlights the importance of …


"What Does It Mean If I Am Silent?”: Bipoc And Lgbtq+ Educators’ Narratives Of Identity, Responsibility, And Student Protection, Julie Nicole Von Stein Jan 2026

"What Does It Mean If I Am Silent?”: Bipoc And Lgbtq+ Educators’ Narratives Of Identity, Responsibility, And Student Protection, Julie Nicole Von Stein

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

This qualitative study examined how BIPOC and LGBTQ+ educators describe their experiences navigating curriculum restrictions and book bans in politically restrictive educational environments, their perceptions of administrator support, and how their identities uniquely shape their decisions about resistance and risk. Grounded in Scott’s theory of everyday resistance, the study explored the ways BIPOC and LGBTQ+ educators make decisions about resistance when curricular content connected to race, gender, sexuality, and marginalized identities is challenged or restricted. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with educators who identify as BIPOC and/or LGBTQ+, allowing participants to describe their experiences, decision-making processes, perceived risks, and …
