The Write Voice: Using Professional Writing To Preserve Cultural Heritage, Anna Fox
The Write Voice: Using Professional Writing To Preserve Cultural Heritage, Anna Fox
Public History Symposium
The goal of this capstone was to become familiar with the different voices that public history professionals take on in order to successfully preserve their collections and advocate for community histories. To gain experience with the internally focused informative voice, an orientation manual was written and digitized for the Sinclair College Archives, a local Dayton archive in which student workers, interns, and future archives professionals are frequently trained on the basics of archival processing and arranging materials for public use. For that same institution, a grant opportunity was selected, and a narrative application was written to gain experience using an …

“Gut Heil”: Dayton Turner’S Preservation During The First World War, Brandon Broering
“Gut Heil”: Dayton Turner’S Preservation During The First World War, Brandon Broering
Public History Symposium
Good greetings, or Gut Heil!, was a common greeting made by German-Americans in Dayton. These German-Americans and the lives of millions of Americans on April the sixth, 1917 were forever altered because of the United States’ decision to join the war effort. As the United States entered the First World War, domestically the population felt emboldened to aid in the war effort in every way possible. The First World War brought unprecedented hysteria towards German-Americans for fear of treason and espionage upon the war effort. Eventually even legislation was passed 1 to halt anyone in the United States from interfering …

From Oral Traditions To Digital Screens: The Evolution Of Folklore In The Modern Age, Echo Padgett
From Oral Traditions To Digital Screens: The Evolution Of Folklore In The Modern Age, Echo Padgett
Student Scholar Symposium
This research explores how folklore and oral traditions adapt within digital spaces, focusing on Native American Skinwalker narratives and Biblical parables. By exploring these stories’ transformation on modern platforms, we are able to see the impact of digital media on traditional storytelling. In Navajo mythology, Skinwalkers are individuals, typically male, who practice the Witchery Way, gaining the ability to transform into animals to cause harm and disrupt the natural order. However, modern media often portrays them as monstrous, alien-like creatures, stripping away their cultural significance. The rise of sensationalized narratives, such as those surrounding Skinwalker Ranch, further these misconceptions, linking …
Domestic Violence Punishments In The Nfl, Jesse Lichti
Domestic Violence Punishments In The Nfl, Jesse Lichti
Student Scholar Showcase
The way that professional athletes are punished for violent crimes is something that the leagues need to put an emphasis on. As media coverage has risen in regards to athletes being violent, specifically against women, the fans understanding of its severity has risen along with it. As currently constructed, the NFL allows for too much bias, lacks deterrence, and does not focus on helping the athletes. These are the main points that my presentation focus on. In the next CBA, something like my idea needs to be put into place. This can then be extended to all violent crimes in …

Sfa Art Day: Button Design And Lesson Execution, Mia Thornton
Undergraduate Research Conference
For my research project, I designed a logo for the Art Education program. Then, on the November 8th Art Day I assisted Professor Denise Davis in presenting a multi-media lesson. This lesson included forms of book-making and button creation. The high school participants were given two options, cutting out one of the premade circle logos I designed or creating a unique design for their buttons. This project required me to learn new computer programs and interact with a student population that was unfamiliar to me.
The Harsh Realities Of Opera Houses And The Continual Popularity Of Minstrelsy In Terrell, Texas, Rebecca Jestis
The Harsh Realities Of Opera Houses And The Continual Popularity Of Minstrelsy In Terrell, Texas, Rebecca Jestis
Undergraduate Research Conference
In Terrell, Texas, five different opera houses operated from 1878 to 1910. Sources paint the earlier opera houses with rowdy audiences and scandalous performances, a reflection of early pioneer mentality. Later opera houses, all owned by the elite and well-known businessmen of Terrell, may have offered more popular and professional productions, but the most prominent of these were minstrel shows. With evidence of minstrelsy's fierce continuation in Terrell's society up until the 1950s, the study of the opera houses not only illuminates the growing racial tensions and complexities but also the normalization of minstrel shows and blackface for decades after …
Understanding Ai’S Potential In Creativity And Research, Chloe Albrecht, Natalie Pradia
Understanding Ai’S Potential In Creativity And Research, Chloe Albrecht, Natalie Pradia
Undergraduate Research Conference
We experimented with artificial intelligence (Al) to better understand its limitations, guiding principles, and ethical impacts in creative and academic research and writing. Our project's purpose was to explore if Al can only harm creative endeavors and should therefore remain separate from the arts. Our methodology involved prompting and re-prompting to compose a variety of texts, demonstrating that the use of Al for creative and academic works can involve critical thinking. This process included giving the Als broad-scope prompts and narrowing in on specific tasks with repetitive re-prompting. We applied this method to writing, gathering resources, and providing enough background …
Astronaut And Bubbles: Representing Speech Disability Through Art, Susana De La Paz
Astronaut And Bubbles: Representing Speech Disability Through Art, Susana De La Paz
Undergraduate Research Conference
Purpose: The Astronaut's dialogue was intentionally written to highlight speech impairments, a challenge I have personally faced in my life. Growing up, I struggled with articulating certain speech sounds and found it disheartening that children's books rarely featured characters with speech disabilities. This book aims to provide comfort and visibility to children who face similar challenges.

Removing The Blame From Children In Poverty: Deficit Ideology And The Mishandling Of Behavioral Issues, Sarah Gross
Removing The Blame From Children In Poverty: Deficit Ideology And The Mishandling Of Behavioral Issues, Sarah Gross
Diversity & Social Justice in Education Conference
According to data from the US Census Bureau (2023), the official poverty rate for those under 18 years of age was 16%, however when adjusted to 150% of the poverty line, it is estimated that about 26% of children are living in poverty. Data from the Center for Disease Control indicates that among these children living in poverty, 1 in 5 experiences a mental, behavioral, or developmental disorder (CDC, 2022). In addition to this, the American Psychological Association reports that children and teens in poverty are at a greater risk for below average academic achievement and behavioral problems (APA, 2024). …

Love Thy Neighbor: A Content Analysis Of Nextdoor™ Posts Discussing The Homeless Population In Spokane, Olivia Harrington
Diversity & Social Justice in Education Conference
Homelessness, as it is portrayed in American media (e.g. news, social media, films, television) is riddle with misinformation and stereotype application. These stereotypes place individual blame on those experiencing homelessness, claiming that they are drug addicts, violent, and not worthy of help. 61% of Americans have not researched homelessness on their own, meaning they solely depend on media for their information (National Alliance to End Homelessness, 2024). Furthermore, research has provided evidence that this culturally dominant messaging impacts Americans’ level of empathy and willingness to support policies of care (e.g., Medicaid, food stamps, shelter services) (Johnson et al., 2009). This …
Believing In Simulation Theory, Aeve Boucher
Believing In Simulation Theory, Aeve Boucher
Undergraduate Research Symposium
This paper utilizes the frameworks, terms, and methodology used by David Chalmers in his recent book “Reality+”, along with ancient Chinese philosophers Zhuangzi and Mozi in order to make an argument for why we ought to believe that we are currently living in a simulation while at the same time withholding judgment on the metaphysical reality of whether or not we are currently living in a simulation. The argument uses Chalmers’ five different concepts of reality along with his own views of how being in a simulation would not negatively impact our currently held beliefs, especially in regards to language …
The Horror Of Memory In The Southern Gothic, Caelainn Robertson
The Horror Of Memory In The Southern Gothic, Caelainn Robertson
Undergraduate Research Symposium
Scenes of expansive cotton fields and rotting Manor houses lined by moss covered oaks where strange fruit once hung induce an acute sense of horror from an audience familiar with these relics. The genre of “Southern Gothic” spans literature, film and music and is built on themes of cultural repression in the Southern United States. This tradition explores fears rooted in lingering memories of human enslavement and patriarchal domination. In a culture marked by racial violence and class oppression, evil is, often, identifiable by markers of wealth and white skin. Historical memories only exacerbate suffering. Many contemporary works use the …

Pint-Sized Advisories, Bowman Eggleston, Autumn Carey
Undergraduate Research Symposium
Pint-Sized Advisories is a game inspired by Nintendo's WarioWare series made for the ODU Serious Games Jam of Spring 2025, where it won 2nd place out of 11 entries overall, winning first in the "Fun Factor" category, while tying for first in "Rhetoric" and "Theme". The game covers themes of environmental friendliness on an individual level: within the story, an organization is making "micro-PSAs" to hold the attention spans of teenagers. The player is required to complete each PSA (some task) before the viewer swipes away. These PSAs start short and only get shorter as the game progresses, requiring the …

"Balthazar, The Good Dragon", Jennifer Trahant
"Balthazar, The Good Dragon", Jennifer Trahant
Liberty University Research Week
Dragons have long been portrayed as symbols of greed and destruction in mythology and literature, reinforcing the idea that they represent evil. However, this sculpture challenges that perception by drawing inspiration from children's literature such as Wings of Fire, The Fire Within, The Spiderwick Chronicles, Eragon, How to Train Your Dragon, and Pete’s Dragon. In these stories, dragons are often misunderstood, and feared due to human prejudice rather than their true nature.

"Howard Be Thy Name", Jennifer Trahant
Liberty University Research Week
A Biblical worldview recognizes the beauty in aging, viewing it not as a decline but as a testament to wisdom, resilience, and God’s faithfulness. Scripture affirms this perspective, as seen in Proverbs 16:31, “Gray hair is a crown of glory,†and Job 12:12, “Wisdom is with the aged.†Ecclesiastes 3:11 reminds us that “He has made everything beautiful in its time,†affirming that aging is part of God’s design. While physical beauty fades, the Lord confirms that time can emphasize the inner self's renewal. By honoring the marks of age, we embrace a perspective that values the depth, grace, and …

There is a disparity of genuine communication between women and healthcare professionals. Although modern society claims equal access and opportunity for all genders, there is a large portion of women who continue to go unheard. Most healthcare professionals are not actively seeking sexist options when treating patients, yet many women are still being treated differently or not at all. Changing the current status quo begins with acknowledging the current situation women all around the world are experiencing. The Communication Objective is to display the struggle within the affected group. There is an outcry from women, observable across countries, to be …

This organization helps provide economically disadvantaged individuals gain access to transportation. This study was directed by studying the target audience and researching their preferences, relationships, age habits, geographical location, and socioeconomic background. We studied the media preferences of the age group as well as the financial background, the individual’s education level, and the relational status of the individual or if they have children. Prevalent social movements in the Atlanta region were also researched. This information …
Feathertop Character Design, Ariana Murphy
Feathertop Character Design, Ariana Murphy
Liberty University Research Week
Feathertop, a short story written by Nathaniel Hawthorne, suffers from a marked lack of high-quality illustrations to bring the story to life and public awareness. Despite having a strong mood and atmosphere, intriguing characters, and thought-provoking themes, it is a little-known story with much creative potential from a written and visual standpoint. The goal of this research project is to utilize the author’s rich descriptions of the main character, Feathertop, to create a memorable and endearing design which will serve as a launching off point for further illustrative development of the story.
