Even Though I Walk: Towards A Pentecostal Theology Of Discipleship, Jordan Reed Nov 2017

Even Though I Walk: Towards A Pentecostal Theology Of Discipleship, Jordan Reed

Selected Honors Theses

This purpose of this thesis is to develop a theological foundation for a Pentecostal theology of discipleship. I begin with an analysis of the early Pentecostal movement and its implications on Pentecostal theology. This is to develop a framework within which my proposed theology can be developed. Next, I assess discipleship from a broader perspective, identifying crucial aspects of it that are not specific to Pentecostalism. I appeal to the Anabaptist tradition’s understanding of discipleship specifically, recognizing key components which allowed their theology to be so effective. In light of this I summarize and assess existing Pentecostal literature on discipleship …


Young Adult Literature: The Reality On The Page, Chelsea Elmore Nov 2017

Young Adult Literature: The Reality On The Page, Chelsea Elmore

Selected Honors Theses

The genre of young adult literature has grown from a didactic category made of problem novels and taboo themes into a mimetic vision of modern life by way of dystopian fiction. In my thesis, I will discuss the ways in which young adult literature has changed over time and what those changes will mean for its readers and its future as a genre. The first section will analyze three groundbreaking novels that have disrupted the previously established didactic mindset of young adult literature. The publication of such novels (The Catcher in the Rye, Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret …

The Laser Loop: A Structured Process Approach Activity For Teaching Argumentative Writing, Larkin Weyand

The Utah English Journal

On August 7, 2016, ten-year-old Caleb Schwab rode the world’s tallest water slide, the Verrückt (German for “insane”) at the Schlitterbahn Water Park in Kansas City. During the 168-foot plummet, Caleb came free from his safety harness, was ejected into the safety netting, and died from what was originally classified as a “neck injury” but later identified as a decapitation. His family has mourned him in public, expressing their grief but also their intention to prevent similar tragedies. According to CBS news, the two adult women riding the raft with Caleb, mothers themselves, have threatened litigation, pending an investigation, to …

Book Review: Making Curriculum Pop: Developing Literacies In All Content Areas, Jessica Lynn Reschke

The Utah English Journal

One of my students is sitting at a worn-out desk and staring at the whiteboard with an occasional glance at the clock. She is looking at me, but it seems as if the words I am saying are going in one ear and out the other. I know she cannot wait for my class to be over. It is important that I cover the course material and meet certain teaching criteria, but how can I make learning more exciting for my students?

Carver Briggs is an aspiring writer attending a prestigious school of the arts for the young and gifted in Jeff Zentner’s Goodbye Days.

Interlude Ii: Imitation Poetry To Write Narratives, Gaylynn Parker Nov 2017

Interlude Ii: Imitation Poetry To Write Narratives, Gaylynn Parker

The Utah English Journal

Although I focus on poetry during National Poetry Month in April, I like to intersperse poetry throughout the year. Most of my students think they hate poetry until they have a positive experience writing poetry. Imitation poetry is easy, and with the right prompt, students can write beautiful poetry and feel successful.

Historically Black Colleges And Universities And Black Greek-Lettered Organizations In The “Post-Racial” Era Of Accountability, Donald Mitchell Jr., Ph.D. Nov 2017

Historically Black Colleges And Universities And Black Greek-Lettered Organizations In The “Post-Racial” Era Of Accountability, Donald Mitchell Jr., Ph.D.

Executives, Administrators, & Staff Publications

Historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) and Black Greek-lettered organizations (BGLOs) are institutions and organizations that provided African Americans with options for unification and education during years of overt racial discrimination when education and socioeconomic comforts were limited for the vast majority of Americans of African descent, and they continue to serve as support structures for African Americans today. Nevertheless, in the “postracial” era of accountability, questions surrounding the relevance of these organizations have become common discourse. While these organizations face similar narratives, HBCU and BGLO research, successes, and issues have not yet been analyzed, synthesized, or even acknowledged in …

Debating Humanitarian Intervention: Should We Try To Save Strangers?, Fernando R. Tesón, Bas Van Der Vossen Nov 2017

Debating Humanitarian Intervention: Should We Try To Save Strangers?, Fernando R. Tesón, Bas Van Der Vossen

Philosophy Faculty Books and Book Chapters

"When violence breaks out in a country, foreign governments face a difficult dilemma: should they intervene on behalf of the victims, or should they remain spectators? Each choice offers its own perils, and philosophers Fernando R. Tesón and Bas van der Vossen offer contrasting views of intervention by employing modern analytic philosophy, particularly just war theory. Tesón and van der Vossen refer to and weigh the consequences of past, present, and future interventions in Syria, Somalia, Rwanda, Bosnia, Iraq, Lybia, Egypt, and more."

Mektubun burada bizi ilgilendiren kısmı "Türkiye'dc dört milyon Türk vardıf, diyorlar. Bu dört milyondan iki buçuk milyonu geçen muharebede öldü. Geriye kala kala bir buçuk milyon kaldı. Bu bir buçuk milyonunun da dejenere olduğunu muhterem alim, Filozof Rıza Tevfik'le Selim Sırrı Bey müşterek bir makalelerinde vazıhan ispat ettiler," der. Verilen toplam rakamdaki sorun bir yana, nüfusun deje­nere veya tereddi olma konusu ilk defa gündeme gelmiyordu.

The Fox And The Goose: The Pamphlet Wars And Volpone's Animal Metaphors, Julie Anne Anderson Nov 2017

The Fox And The Goose: The Pamphlet Wars And Volpone's Animal Metaphors, Julie Anne Anderson

Theses and Dissertations

Ben Jonson wrote Volpone when England's pamphlet wars and the rule of Queen Elizabeth I contributed to an environment in which the "woman question" was forefront in many minds. These social concerns echo in Volpone, resulting in a play that not only deals with vices and greed, but that also, to a limited degree, contributes to the querelle de femmes. The play's numerous animal metaphors create distinctions between characters; among other things, animalistic surnames represent the vices and complexities of humanity, and, more specifically, reverberate with judgments that seem to underscore the injustices of misogynistic pamphleteers. Moreover, Jonson's …
