Reclaiming & Reasserting Third World Womanhoods In U.S. Higher Education, Bhavika Sicka
Reclaiming & Reasserting Third World Womanhoods In U.S. Higher Education, Bhavika Sicka
Educational Leadership & Workforce Development Faculty Publications
This study combines narrative inquiry with Third World feminism to bring a nuanced and scopic perspective of Third World women student experiences in US higher education. Specifically, it utilises Talpade Mohanty's concept of Third World womanhood to visibilise the experiences of five Third World international female students. Understanding womanhood as transnationally fluid and contextual, I investigate how women international students from the Third World perceive themselves to be misrepresented or homogenised in Western higher education. I also examine how gender and foreignness act as dynamic, interrelated categories in doubly‐othering this population. The purpose is to identify how Third World women …

Bear Bryant, Sam Cunningham, And Popular Memory Of The Civil Rights Movement, Kurt E. Kemper
Research & Publications
Popular writers, sports journalists, documentarians, and fans of college football have built a legend surrounding the 1970 USC-Alabama game and its alleged significance in the process of desegregation, a legend that is deeply flawed and strongly resistant to scholarly correction. The persistence of the legend, told from a white perspective for a white audience, does much to illustrate ongoing resistance to an interpretation of the Civil Rights Movement that places Black activists and direct action at the center of the story.

Nahal Hevron (Hevron River) A-9823/2024, Ahinoam Montague
Favissa: Past Archaeological Excavation Reports
In May–June 2024, a trial excavation was conducted along the southern margins of Nahal Hevron, approximately 600 m north of Tel Be’er Sheva’ (Permit No. A-9823/2024; map ref. 184707-5060/573003-337; Fig. 1), in advance of the planned expansion of the ‘Omer wastewater treatment plant. The excavation was carried out on behalf of the Israel Antiquities Authority and funded by the ‘Omer Local Council. The excavation was directed by A. Montague (modeling and plans), with the assistance of V. Lifshits (Be’er Sheva’ District manager), F. Kobrin (Be’er Sheva’ sub-district manager), Y. Alamor (administration), D. Degen-Eisenberg (supervising archaeologist and aerial photography), I. Azoulay …

The History Of -Eer In English: Suffix Competition Or Symbiosis?, Zachary Dukic, Chris C. Palmer
Graduate Publications – English
Ecological models of competition have provided great explanatory power regarding synonymy in derivational morphology. Competition models of this type have certainly shown their utility, as they have demonstrated, among other things, the relevance of frequency measures, productivity, compositionality and analyzability when comparing the development of morphological constructions. There has been less consideration of alternative models that could be used to describe the historical co-development of suffixes that produce words with sometimes similar forms or meanings but are not inevitably or solely in competition. The symbiotic model proposed in this article may help answer larger questions in linguistics, such as how …

Introduction (Documenting The Armenian Genocide), Thomas Kuehne, Marc A. Mamigonian, Mary Jane Rein
History
This introduction provides a valuable overview of the life and accomplishments of Taner Akçam, a Turkish-American historian and sociologist. An international authority on the Armenian Genocide and a leader in human rights, Akçam is the first scholar of Turkish origin to acknowledge the Armenian Genocide and to publish groundbreaking research on this topic. Imprisoned in 1976 for criticizing injustices in Turkey and the government’s treatment of minorities, especially the Kurds, Akçam escaped and fled to Germany. Amnesty International adopted him as a “prisoner of conscience” and the German government granted him asylum. He eventually obtained citizenship in Germany, where he …

Maka: Distribuzione E Circolazione Di Un Film Indipendente, Simone Brioni Dr.
Department of English Faculty Publications
The distribution and circulation of independent films are fundamental but often neglected aspects in film studies. This article presents a distribution experience followed by the author of the text himself: the case of the independent documentary Maka. Produced thanks to an academic grant and the collaboration with two Italian production companies, Maka was screened at numerous international festivals and received several awards. Distribution involved both traditional cinema circuits and independent digital platforms. The film has been screened in academic and associative contexts, in Italy and the United States, encouraging debates on social and cultural issues. The participation of the protagonist, …
Employers’ Perceptions Of Microcredentials On Entry-Level Résumés In Technical And Professional Communication, Jordan Booth, Timothy Ponce, Amy Hodges
Employers’ Perceptions Of Microcredentials On Entry-Level Résumés In Technical And Professional Communication, Jordan Booth, Timothy Ponce, Amy Hodges
2024 Spring Honors Capstone Projects - Archive
Increasingly, higher education institutions are investing in a booming microcredentialing industry. These flexible, self-paced courses often promise to improve learners’ hireability through teaching skills that meet market and employer demands. This paper investigates the perceptions of microcredentials within the context of hiring entry-level workers who recently graduated from undergraduate technical and professional writing academic programs. Our qualitative research study reports on the findings from 4 interviews with hiring managers and recruiters in a U.S. metropolitan area. In the guided interview protocol, participants were asked to reflect on their reactions to two sample résumés that included different qualifying credentials. The findings …

The collection is rich in documentation of the association’s history, including materials related to its annual dinners, correspondence between members, membership lists, event programs, newspaper clippings, photographs, and business and financial records. The collection also includes artifacts like artwork, printing plates, and other memorabilia, which speak to the organization’s efforts to …
A Tree Grows In Brooklyn: Betty Smith’S Bestselling Introduction To The Gilded Age And Progressive Era, Nancy C. Unger
A Tree Grows In Brooklyn: Betty Smith’S Bestselling Introduction To The Gilded Age And Progressive Era, Nancy C. Unger
History
An analysis of Betty Smith’s bestselling coming-of-age novel A Tree Grows in Brooklyn reveals how popular literature can serve as an important introduction to signature issues of the Gilded Age and Progressive Era. Industrialization, urbanization, and immigration are highlighted in the novel—as well as attendant problems including poverty, machine politics, child labor, and prejudice and discrimination. Profound ignorance about sexuality and conception abound in a religious culture that made premarital sex and birth control sinful and shameful, with unhappy marriages and unwanted children the result. As poverty and deviant sexuality abound, eugenics is touted as a sensible solution. The novel …

Incorporating Sex-Diverse And Gender-Inclusive Perspectives In Higher Education Biology Courses, Breanne N. Harris, A Kelsey Lewis, Sam L. Sharpe, Teri J. Orr, Christopher T. Martine, Chloe C. Josefson
Faculty Journal Articles
Inclusive teaching is teaching in a way that reaches all students in the classroom; this is beneficial for everyone, particularly for those with minoritized identities. Instructors play a critical role in scaffolding how students are exposed to and learn science content in the classroom. In this manuscript, we discuss how biology instructors can make their classrooms more inclusive with regard to sex and gender diversity content. Many topics in biology are based on androcentric, heteronormative, and oppressive framing, even though those lenses are more reflective of our own history and culture than they are of the diversity we see in …

How To Wear A Queen’S Crown ; From Slavery (17th Century) To 1990s, Ka-Mya Frye
ASPIRE 2024
There are six hairstyles I chose to feature in this project that embody a story with culture to be told about the hardships African American women in the US have faced up until almost the present day. I believe it will be a fun learning experience, not only for me but other African American women, potentially looking for some cultural hairstyles and learning about their “crown’s” history. A couple of styles that stood out from the age of slavery to the 1990s were cornrows, dreads, Bantu/Zulu knots, and the afro. I will discuss the history of these styles along with …
The Intersection Of Kinesthetic Empathy And Observation In Concert Dance Performance, Kate Walker
The Intersection Of Kinesthetic Empathy And Observation In Concert Dance Performance, Kate Walker
Gaines Fellow Senior Theses
When watching concert dance, observers unconsciously process movement information by forming reflections of their own experiences, resulting in an emotional connection. The artist, however, also has a part in forming meaning around something they create. If meaning is formed in the creation of the work by the artist, and also through observation by an audience, where does meaning reside? The relationship shared between the artist and their audience is valuable, so something must connect these two groups. An artist’s job is to suggest meaning through their work, but once the piece is subject to observation, the process of kinesthetic empathy …

Resonancethe Interdisciplinary Design Process + Site Specific Work In An Interative Lens, Danica Hak
Gaines Fellow Senior Theses
This thesis serves as a lineage of research exploring the relationship between dance and design, emphasizing and encouraging interdisciplinary design processes that are cyclic and iterative. As the push for diversity, equity, and inclusion rises in the design field, experimentation in other disciplines and their relationship with design promotes more thoughtful, human-centered spaces. The overlaps of design and dance highlight the relationship of body and space through circulation patterns, ergonomic design, public performance, and site-specific work. Nontraditional performance (anything that is not in a typical proscenium viewing) allows a fostering, mutualistic relationship between performer, audience, and the environment.
Personal Narratives As Mechanisms To Explore The Stem Undergraduate Research Experience, Isha Chauhan
Personal Narratives As Mechanisms To Explore The Stem Undergraduate Research Experience, Isha Chauhan
Gaines Fellow Senior Theses
STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) has popularly been labeled as reliant on objective analysis, while, conversely, humanities are rooted in engaging human virtue and creating connections between people. A particularly interesting piece of the humanities is storytelling, which allows people of unique backgrounds to develop creative connections to their work. In this way, STEM and the humanities are united by personal experience and the ability to convey such. This connection can be demonstrated through the STEM undergraduate experience, which has been greatly underrepresented in the form of personal narratives. With the format of personal narratives being conducive to discussion …
The Fruits Of Our Labor, Joseph Cox
The Fruits Of Our Labor, Joseph Cox
Gaines Fellow Senior Theses
Fruits of labor are the triumphs of determination and resiliency. We often place ourselves in the world by referencing those around us. Or those beyond us. When I found myself disoriented, it was looking inward that gained my footing. These friends of mine are all a little fruity in their own way. If you pause and take it in, they’ll remind you that it’s not a label or image that we share, but a strength to love the way we differ. The Fruits of our Labor works to facilitate these connections through shared experiences of creativity. It examines Queer lifestyle …

Move The Table, Elizabeth Browning
Gaines Fellow Senior Theses
This creative thesis project is based on autoethnicgraphical methodology and queer feminist crip analysis, and borne from homegrown loving and learning. In recounting my own experience with education within feminine culinary spaces, I am affirming the teachings of particularly American mothers of color in resistance against oppressive politics in public education. In doing so, I validate my own knowledge and implore higher education institutions to explore collective access for us all. Using autoethnography, cooking as inquiry, historical information, and family recipes and narratives, I will analyze the ways in which the women in my family have created feminist midrash in …

Remembering East Frisian Immigrants Who Settled Near German Valley, Illinois: A Family History Scrapbook, Derek M. Heeren
Genealogy Resources
In June of 1848, Jelle Heeren (age 25) married Taalke Park (age 15) near Rhauderfhen, East Friesland (German: Ostfriesland). One year later, on September 10, along with their infant son, they left everything that was familiar to them in Germany. Based on glowing reports of good opportunities for farming and raising a family on the American frontier, they set sail for the United States. After what must have been a traumatic voyage (including the death of their son), they entered the United States at New York City. Continuing onward, they arrived at a new East Frisian settlement in Illinois (later …

Dystopian Young Adult Literature As Waypoints To Censorship Across Time And Space, Shelby Boehm, Savannah Bean
Faculty Publications – English
We advocate for the reading of young adult literature (YAL) as a means for justice-oriented education, and we also recognize how the recent surge in challenges to youth-centered texts in the U.S. attempts to limit such work in classrooms. In response, we wondered about the ways in which YAL offers pathways for critically framing and situating global concerns, such as censorship, in time and space as a means of entering public conversations on issues. In this article, we offer waypoints as a critical reading framework for approaching sociopolitical issues in YAL as gateways for shifts in perspectives, orientations, and actions …
