Big History, Joan Baranow

The Tuxedo Archives

They’re measuring the age of the earth

by what it’s lost—isotopes

leaching like childhood,

leaving you with a faulty memory and rheumatoid arthritis—

Earth, is that how you feel?

Things My Father Taught Me, Casey Waits Jan 2020

Things My Father Taught Me, Casey Waits

The Tuxedo Archives

They say every man grows up to be his father. I’m pretty sure they say the same thing about women too. They also say how life is all about the little things. The devil is in the details and what have you; body language, facial expressions, clothing, ticks, mannerisms, habits, speech patterns, sayings, tones, opinions, and patterns. These are what make up a person. These are what make up me. I learned them from my dad.

Futile Attempts, Melissa Graveson Jan 2020

Futile Attempts, Melissa Graveson

The Tuxedo Archives

I don’t know why I remember waking up one morning, and getting ready to go to the mall when I was five years old. The morning started just as so many others had. I crawled out of my bed, reluctant to leave the warmth, and comfort, it provided. Soon after I made it over to the dresser, where I found an outfit to wear. The shirt and pants I put on were indicative of a child’s wardrobe. These items were not unique, or original, by any means. Having put on traditional children’s clothes I then moved onto adorning myself with …

I might need nerve gas

to fill my lungs,

to replace the oxygen

you stole

when you took my breath away.

Moving about my ways

Finding problems, new goals, and even battles,

But finding a way for success!

Feelings change constantly like hours of the day.


A Joy I Can't Express, Jose Sandoval-Gutierrez Jan 2020

A Joy I Can't Express, Jose Sandoval-Gutierrez

The Tuxedo Archives

You want me to express

a joy I can’t express.

I’m at a loss for words

like I lost my courage

at the sight of the sword.

8 Weeks, Aiyana Beck

I get to his office tired. My prefect dark ringlet curls dripping wet from the rain. I start to his office not paying attention to the fact that his secretary is trying to stop me.

“Miss Brown,” his secretary is saying, “he is on a conference call right now. If you wait I can let him know you are here.”

“I don’t have time to wait David.”

“Miss Brown,” he shouts at me, but I am already at the door to Joe’s office.

As I walk in, I swallow hard.

“So we are going to build this building in stages,” …

Led Down The Garden Path: Cognitive Processing Of English Language Idioms, Daniel Alan Vandehey Jan 2020

Led Down The Garden Path: Cognitive Processing Of English Language Idioms, Daniel Alan Vandehey

Dissertations and Theses

The discourse community surrounding the study of idioms often disagree regarding the proper classification of idioms. Some scholars believe that the figurative meaning of many idioms cannot be determined through the deconstruction of their lexical parts, and therefore should be classified as an irreducible lexical unit. Others believe that even though the figurative meaning of some idioms are obscured, people process these opaque idioms as they would a metaphor, constructing meaning through an integration process that includes the component pieces of the idiom, the surrounding context, and the message receiver's knowledge network. This study forwards research concerning whether idioms should …


Draft: First-Year Composition Eportfolio Project As High Impact Practice, Jenni Keys Jan 2020

Draft: First-Year Composition Eportfolio Project As High Impact Practice, Jenni Keys

Workshops & Institutes

Abstract: The ePortfolio project will be the culminating formal writing assignment in a two-term course that completes students' first-year composition university requirement. This project fulfills three areas of ePortfolios as a high impact practice:

  • Inquiry: Students seek and perceive connections between the course learning outcomes and the experiences in their first-year composition course in relation to their development as writers
  • Reflection: Students identify and repeatedly reflect on their personal journeys as writers, answering the questions “what have I learned?” and “how have I grown?”; students consider those answers within the context of their continued experiences as university and life-long learners. …
