399— Rates Of Tuberculosis Mortality Rates In Urban And Rural Areas Of New York State Before The Age Of Antibiotics, Jillian Demaria
399— Rates Of Tuberculosis Mortality Rates In Urban And Rural Areas Of New York State Before The Age Of Antibiotics, Jillian Demaria
GREAT Day Posters
From the late nineteenth and early twentieth century industrialization changed many aspects of American life. Mortality rates in the pre World War I era (1838 and 1930) changed due to many improvements of public health. The creation and emphasis over vaccinations, sewage systems, inspections of foods, and overall improvements in living and working conditions improved public health outcomes in all parts of America, in both rural and urban areas. As the changes occurred, tuberculosis mortality rates declined. This study explores death rates of tuberculosis in rural and urban areas, as well as the general population of Rochester, in the nineteenth …
137— Skulls Tell Tales: A Comparative Study Of Un-Provenienced Crania, Alice Lee
137— Skulls Tell Tales: A Comparative Study Of Un-Provenienced Crania, Alice Lee
GREAT Day Posters
In this study I have conducted a detailed analysis of several crania that have yet to be provenienced in the skeletal collection of the Physical Anthropology Lab. While some of these skulls have previously been matched to the correct post-cranial skeleton most of them have not and as such all were studied alone separate from any other skeletal material. The skulls were then compared analytically with a focus on any commonalities of sex, ethnicity, and age which may be present along with what determinations could actually be made with the parts of each skull that were available as some were …

280— Exploring The Geographic Distribution Of Childbed Fever Deaths In Mid-19th Century Rochester, Ny, Meaghan Parks
GREAT Day Posters
Childbed fever, formally called puerperal fever or puerperal septicemia, is an infection typically contracted by women after childbirth. Historically, childbed fever was a serious threat to maternal health. Childbed fever is caused by exposure of open wounds or abrasions, which are common after giving birth, to group A and B Streptococcal bacteria. Ignaz Semmelweis discovered that hand washing using a chlorinated solution reduced cases of childbed fever in 1847. This project reviews the instances of death from childbed fever in Rochester, New York from 1837-1860 and later from 1907-1919 and attempts to determine which areas of the city had the …
239— The Effect Of Flooding On Water-Borne And Vector-Borne Illnesses In Historic Rochester, Ny, Isabelle Stitt
239— The Effect Of Flooding On Water-Borne And Vector-Borne Illnesses In Historic Rochester, Ny, Isabelle Stitt
GREAT Day Posters
The connection between flooding and other extreme water-related weather events with water-borne illnesses is a well-documented issue. Rochester, NY, which lies in the Genesee River valley, receives a significant amount of precipitation due to its proximity to Lake Ontario. Flooding, due to melting snow in the spring and general thunderstorms in the summer, caused the Genesee river to flood often before the construction of the Mt. Morris dam in 1948. Utilizing cemetery records from Mt. Hope cemetery in Rochester, NY, this study explores whether Rochester’s history of flooding had any effect on water-borne or vector-borne illness deaths. The years 1840 …

Lgbtq+ Journeys And Femininity, Masculinity Throughout Puberty: A Thematic Analysis Of Netflix's Big Mouth, Carter Montgomery
Showcase of Osprey Advancements in Research and Scholarship (SOARS)
Media is socially constructed and those who create the message, shape the beliefs and principles that are displayed. The viewers do not merely accept the representations at face value; they consume it, interpret and analyze the validity of it and then express their thoughts on what they see. Media is an influential tool for challenging, maintaining, and expanding consumer’s understanding of the world around them, playing a key role in shaping people’s identities, especially gender and sexuality. It’s important to be able to analyze media to critically think about the worlds that are presented to us that represent the world …
Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy, Lori Ferguson, Ross Mcdonough
Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy, Lori Ferguson, Ross Mcdonough
Showcase of Osprey Advancements in Research and Scholarship (SOARS)
Beginning in the early 1900s, research into Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy (PAP) showed promising results. After psychedelics were made illegal in the early 1970s they went largely underground. Psychedelic research resumed in the 1990s and the research shows great promise. Unlike traditional antidepressants that only manage symptoms and cause long term side effects, psychedelics could possibly be a cure with no side effects once the drug has worn off. Treatment often includes preparatory therapy sessions before, a session which includes the use of a psychedelic, and integrative therapy sessions after. Right now the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) is the …
Edward Said’S Orientalism: Trapped In Time, Samantha Glass
Edward Said’S Orientalism: Trapped In Time, Samantha Glass
Capstone Showcase
Edward Said developed his theory of Orientalism in 1978. His theory looked at how Western cultures have treated the East, which includes Asia, the Middle East, and parts of Africa. There is differentiation on what parts of the Occident view the Orient, as the United States has become more tied with the Middle East. In contrast, Europe’s vast history of trade and colonization has connected them with Africa and Asia. The image that has been created has belittled cultures, taken away their meaning, and risks the people in the culture from abandoning it altogether. When power becomes a significant part …
We Live In A Society: Violence And Radicalization In The Internet Manosphere, Emily Price
We Live In A Society: Violence And Radicalization In The Internet Manosphere, Emily Price
Capstone Showcase
In a world of incels, pick-up artists, and other Men’s Rights Activists, friction between the so-called Manosphere and contemporary feminist thought has led to documented violence with regards to American mass shootings. Starting with the violent outbursts of disaffected young men, I will work backwards to the point of contact between the man and the Manosphere. This piece seeks not to draw a connection between radical MRAs and violence – the mass shooters draw that connection themselves in their manifestos by outlining their dissatisfaction with society as it is, and particularly with what they perceive as a politically correct and …
