To Read Or Not To Read: Navigating Young Adult Literature In The Classroom In The Age Of Trigger Warnings And Banned Books, Ashley Sell
Honors Projects
Most public school libraries or English classrooms celebrate Banned Books Week during the school year, featuring dozens of Young Adult novels that have been challenged or banned in public schools across the country. However, books aimed towards young readers are typically not optimized for educational use in the classroom. In this project, I will explore the benefits of using Young Adult literature in the classroom, while also investigating the obstacles that one might face in order to do so, i.e. censorship, sensitive subject matter. I also want to summarize and respond to an argument for the retainment of classic literature …

Master of Arts in English Plan II Graduate Projects
This is the final portfolio for my Master's of Arts in the field of English. It includes an analytical narrative along with four projects that I feel best illustrate my knowledge, skills, and growth.

Silent Film: A Visual Narrative For Developing Linguistic Competence, Patricia George
Silent Film: A Visual Narrative For Developing Linguistic Competence, Patricia George
Open Educational Resources
Visual narratives in silent films are an effective method for developing linguistic competence in English language education and are equally constructive in developing critical thinking skills across disciplines. “Silent film, more than any other film property, capitalizes on ESL students’ visual literacy, using it as both a foundation and a catalyst for honing the verbal language skills that are key to acquiring and articulating complex knowledge in English” (Kasper and Singer, 2001). Silent films rely on the power of vivid, interactive visual imagery to depict personal struggles, character interactions, and plot development. This medium grabs the attention of ESL students …

Are School Lunches Actually Healthy?, Jenna Cedor
Are School Lunches Actually Healthy?, Jenna Cedor
Spring Showcase for Research and Creative Inquiry
For my research project I chose to examine whether school lunches are actually as healthy as they come out to be, and I will briefly look at why some frown upon them. While some individuals frown upon school lunches, if they are able to be served, they have to meet the requirements and standards that are in place. I want to be able to confidently tell those who are concerned that they can let their children eat the lunches that their schools provide them and not have a choice but to only eat a packed lunch. I also think some …
Disney Princesses And Gender Expectations, Miranda Carter
Disney Princesses And Gender Expectations, Miranda Carter
Spring Showcase for Research and Creative Inquiry
My research aims to show the older generation of Disney princesses' problems and how they are changing the narrative to give girls more agency. In some research, I have learned that 'Disney Princesses represent salient, powerful, attractive characters who tend to be portrayed as conforming to gender stereotypes and are rewarded for their gendered behavior' (Coyner, para9). Most girls identify with older princesses like Snow White or Cinderella than newer ones who give women more agency. I believe this is a topic that needs to be discussed more because it significantly affects girls and their identities. It is something that …
Heavy Metal, Moral Panic, And Residing Stigma, Frank Knott Iv
Heavy Metal, Moral Panic, And Residing Stigma, Frank Knott Iv
Spring Showcase for Research and Creative Inquiry
Since its origins of the 1970s up to the present, the musical themes of Heavy Metal along with the associated subcultures have been the prey of various moral ideologies, particularly of a conservative matter. Moral panics have ensued in the past over various qualities of the genre, and there is still residual stigma to be found today, much of which is based upon misperceptions of cause and effect.
Visiting Jane: Jane Austen, Fan Culture, And Literary Tourism, Brianna Surratt
Visiting Jane: Jane Austen, Fan Culture, And Literary Tourism, Brianna Surratt
Senior Theses
People have been visiting sites associated with Jane Austen for two centuries now, and there have been fans of her work for even longer. Austen inspires unique devotion among her fans for an author about whose life we know very little. Furthermore, these fans have been fighting among themselves for as long as fans have existed over who loves her the right way – the academics or the amateurs? This work explores that unique fan culture in detail through the lens of literary tourism, going into detail about two sites in particular – Jane Austen’s House in Chawton, England, and …
