description: From the Faculty Nominator: Modern Physics (e.g. Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, Particles and Nuclei) covers some of the strangest and most fascinating aspects of the world in which we live. To supplement the survey of these subjects that we undertake in Phy 220 (Modern Physics), the Department of Physics and Astronomy also asks each student to write an in-depth research paper on a topic they find particularly interesting. The capture and display of three-dimensional information on a two-dimensional surface, or holography, is a rather narrow field with wide- ranging implications, from security measures on credit cards (check your wallets!) to mass data storage. Jennifer Jordan ('11) wrote an excellent examination of the history, physics, and applications of transmission holography, and I am exceedingly pleased that it has been accepted for this edition of Verge magazine.
description: "Transmission Holograms - A Three-Dimensional Examination" delves into the workings of transmission holograms. Holograms are a fascinating branch of optical physics which have tremendous potential to enhance the technology of the future. This paper explores the uses, the history and the physics of holograms including an in depth look at the two basic forms of transmission holograms

Black Press Coverage of the Emmett Till Lynching as a Catalyst to the Civil Rights Movement
Creators: name: Oby, Michael
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: The movement for civil rights in America gathered momentum throughout the 1950s. In the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court?s Brown vs. The Board of Education ruling, declaring unconstitutional permissive or mandatory school segregation, the white South responded with both passive and active resistance. In the midst of this ferment, an African-American boy from Chicago was lynched in Mississippi.

Subsequent stories in the black press reported not only Emmett Till?s murder and the trial, but also a widening mobilization within the race, notably the creation of associations in defense of civil rights. The coverage of news and views in the black press provide substantial evidence that this mobilization ignited the civil rights movement of the mid-1950s, just months before the Montgomery, Alabama bus boycott led by Martin Luther King Jr. This research supports the view that the black community?s mobilization during the months after Till?s murder served as a catalyst for the civil rights movement.

A New Approach to an Old Story: How Generation Y Views and Disseminates Echoes of Vietnam Films as seen in Videos Created by Troops in Iraq
Creators: name: Hagan, Lindsey
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: This is an examination of how the fictional representation and re-creation of past wars is colliding with the personal video presentations of the Iraq War. It raises questions about how war and art are experienced in a new way and also how ?instant history? is made available to the public. Personally recorded footage of the everyday experience of war has altered the way in which society views war and copes with its aftereffects because Generation Y has become a computer based generation. This is a reception study that will show how Generation Y has used the Baby Boomers? input about the Vietnam War as a basis for its perceptions of historiography and as both a positive and negative framework for its videography.
Ethnic Media and Identity Construction: Content Analysis of the Visual Portrayals of Women in Latina and Glamour Magazines
Creators: name: Ricle Mayorga, Patricia
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Media are powerful agents of socialization; mediated images affect individual and group behavior as well as inter-group attitudes. In the case of the Hispanic/Latino community in the U.S., frequently underrepresented and stereotyped in mainstream media, identity politics and perspectives of self-representation are complicated by the vast diversity of this membership. This project analyzed the current discourse on Hispanic/Latino ethnic identity proposed by Latina magazine and its social standing in relation to the mainstream culture. A quantitative content analysis that compared Latina?s visual portrayals of women to the female portrayals found in the mainstream magazine Glamour suggested that Latina constructed a homogenized and non-conflictive identity for Hispanic/Latino women; an identity that supports U.S. dominant discourses on ethnicity and race and is subjugated to marketing practices.
Gender, Celebration, and Politics: American Women Celebrating the French Revolution

Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2009
Subjects: Research -- Periodicals.

Social sciences -- Research -- Periodicals.

description: . From the Faculty Nominator: Kathleen (Kate) Grandfield’s essay, which was completed for HIS 321, "Atlantic Revolutions" in the fall of 2008, is a model of historical research and analysis. The paper is on one level a sensitive treatment of a hard-to-document group (women) as they ventured forth in public celebrations during the 1790s, and Kate made especially good use of newspapers found on the "America’s Historical Newspapers" database at Goucher College. One of the hidden gems she located was a description of a symbolic marriage between a French and an American widow, a union that purportedly mirrored the connection between the fledgling revolutionary republics. Kate’s essay is more than a collection of interesting anecdotes, however. She frames the essay by talking about democratization and the way in which non-voting actors nonetheless gained power and asserted a public voice by demonstrating in favor of the French Revolution. Along these lines, Kate’s notion that the meaning of "politics" seemed to expand at this time is particularly intriguing. Kate also did an excellent job of defining her terms, presenting background material, and balancing details with theory. In short, Kate’s paper reflects an intellectual maturity and sophisticated approach that merits a wide readership.
description: This paper is the product of the toughest seminar class I took in my time at Goucher. I have always been drawn to the stories in history that have not traditionally been told, so I was fascinated by the role of women in early American politics. These women did far more than sew flags and raise sons; they were an integral part of the battle for control of the new nation’s political symbols and culture. Yet women still did not receive even the right to vote until more than one hundred years later. I wanted to explore both women’s participation in politics and the limits to their political power during the crucial early years of America’s history.

Civil Religion and Pastoral Power in the George W. Bush Presidency
Creators: name: Curry, Kristina
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: American presidents have maintained an equilibrium between the role of church and state in government affairs via the nation?s civil religion and a ?rhetorical contract? between those secular and sacred interests. While other presidents have incorporated religion in their rhetorical execution of office, George W. Bush has done so in a manner different from his predecessors, emphasizing the role of faith in his administration?s beliefs, actions, and policies. Such rhetoric upsets the tenuous relationship between sectarian and secular affairs. Bush?s breach of the rhetorical contract can be explained by Foucault?s notion of pastoral power. Using practices once associated with the church, the savvy government leader may better control his public. I argue that President Bush has shifted the balance of power between organized religion and government, specifically by means of the Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives, thereby corrupting
traditional notions of civil religion in the process of implementing his unique form of new pastoral power.
"Pro-Ana" Web-Log Uses and Gratifications towards Understanding the Pro-Anorexia Paradox
Creators: name: Mantella, Dana
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of all mental illnesses.  Currently, web-logs are hosts to thousands of pro-ana (short for pro-anorexia) blogring participants, joining together with a common claim that eating disorders are "lifestyles not illnesses."  This study explored participation motives among pro-ana blogring participants, relationships to individual psycho-social factors, and to unique web-log features.  Results from the cross-sectional online survey suggest three main participation motives among blogring participants (community, obtaining social/ emotional support, and ego-protection).  Results also indicate individual factors such as; social support satisfaction, drive-for-thinness, and BMI were related to blogger motives in a various diverse ways.  Analyses of the findings from the present study reflect the self-disclosive nature of the blogging process.  The results have several implications for eating disorder, computer-mediated communication, internet social support, and blog/blogring research.
Curvature of Surfaces in 3-Space

description: From the Faculty Nominator: Michael and Jessica wrote this paper as a semester project for MA 222, Calculus III. The purpose of the project was to perform an independent investigation of the generalization of the notion of curvature from 2 dimensions to 3 dimensions. The depth of the mathematics involved, coupled with the intentional lack of formal guidance on my part, made this project very challenging. Michael and Jessica took on this challenge head-on and produced a very impressive piece of work that exhibited creativity and depth of knowledge gained. This was one of the best papers I have read for this level of mathematics course in the decade I have taught at Goucher.
description: From the Authors: The study of curvature allows us to understand the order behind the chaos we perceive in nature. Life experience may provide a general familiarity of curvature as found in our world, but the core of the concept can best be explained with the use of multivariable calculus. “Curvature in 3-Space" clarifies and explains the true meaning of curvature through an examination of the concept’s historical development and an analysis of the mathematical equations that define it. The paper also touches upon how an analysis of curvature in three dimensions might be extended to an abstract discussion of curvature in the fourth dimension. We were given the opportunity to explore this topic through an assignment in Calculus III: Multivariable Calculus.

Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus: An Analysis of a Potential Meme
Creators: name: Noonan, Jo
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: The purpose of this study was to discover whether the phrase "men are from Mars, women are from Venus,? from John Gray?s book, had become a meme and to explore what its usage implied. Analysis of 510 references was guided by grounded theory. Coding over a decade of newspaper usage of the phrase into seven emergent themes allowed examination of usage against the theories of gender research, communication research, media research and meme theory research. This analysis revealed that this phrase meets the requirements to be considered a meme, and as a meme it has successfully assisted the survival, evolution and permeance of Gray?s premise that communication differences are inherent and immutable. While this premise is not based on established clinical and academic principles, it is an example of how incorrect and baseless ideas can displace good reasoned thinking based on research.

description: Background Patients with malignancy often require urgent surgical consultation for treatment or palliation of disease. The objective of this study is to explore the prognostic determinants affecting care in acute cancer-related surgical presentations and the effect on patient outcomes. Main body This is a retrospective review of patients referred to the acute general surgery (ACS) service at a tertiary hospital for management of cancer-related problem from July 2017 to September 2018. Patient demographics, course in hospital, and survival were recorded. Multivariant logistic regression and Kaplan-Meier estimates were performed. One hundred eighty-nine patients were identified (53% female) with a mean age of 65.9 years. Forty-two patients (22%) were newly diagnosed with cancer on presentation, and 94 (50%) patients had metastatic disease. Cancer staging was completed in 84% of patients, and 65% had multidisciplinary team (MDT) assessment during their hospital stay. Surgery was performed on 90 (48%) patients, of which 31.2% was with palliative intent. Overall mortality was 56% with 30- and 60-day mortality of 15% and 22%, respectively. The adjusted odds ratio (OR) for a 60-day mortality was high in patients presenting with new cancer diagnosis (OR 3.18, 95% CI 1.18–9.02, p=0.03), metastatic disease (OR 5.11, 95% CI 2.03–12.85, p=0.001), or systemic therapy on presentation (OR 3.46, 95% CI 1.30–9.22, p=0.013). Conclusion Emergency surgical referral is common in patients with malignancy. Surgical decision making can be challenging due to the heterogeneity of this population and their associated comorbidities. Optimizing prognostic determinants such as goal-directed palliative care, MDT discussions, and bridging to systemic therapy can improve patient outcomes.

"My Loss is Your Gain": Examining the Role of Message Frame, Perceived Risk, and Ambivalence in the Decision to Become an Organ Donor.
Creators: name: Cohen, Elizabeth
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: The decision to become an organ donor involves considering both self-relevant risks and the needs of others.  This study applied prospect theory to examine how message frames that focus on the possible survival or death of a potential organ transplant recipient affect participants' willingness to become organ donors. Perceived personal risk and ambivalence were examined as moderating variables.  Results indicate that risk, rather than ambivalence, played an instrumental role in participants' decisions to donate.  Although no main effects or interactions related to message frame emerged in initial analyses, a supplemental analysis revealed a modest persuasive advantage for the loss-framed message among low-risk participants. Additional analyses revealed that for low-risk participants, perceived benefits of organ donation were higher for the loss frame than the gain frame, whereas the opposite pattern was found for high-risk participants.  Findings suggest that decisions about organ donation may be associated with unique responses to message frames.
The Straight Way: A Narrative Study of Conversion of Islam

description: From the Faculty Nominator: In Qualitative Research Methods students conduct research on topics of profound personal interest-projects that make you quake. The Qualitative Research framework disrupts some of conventional science’s cherished values: being a neutral or objective observer is acknowledged as both impossible and undesirable; the subject matter is more concerned with intangibles, such as meaning, subjectivity, and personal narrative, than the properties and behavior of material things; the research is often about "finding the question" rather than answering one. One day Michael emailed to say, "I’m quaking!" He had elected his topic: the experience and meaning of one’s conversion to Islam. While abroad in Senegal the previous semester, he had lived, worked, played and prayed with Muslims every day. Deeply moved and impressed, he took his curiosity and affection one step further. What follows is his write-up of this remarkable step, which he later expanded into a senior thesis.
description: This paper is a product of my qualitative research methods in psychology course, taught by Rick Pringle in the Fall of 2008. The following narratives present the stories of two individuals’ conversions to Islam. I interpret their experiences through a social-relational lens, focusing on the role of mentors, families, and friends in the conversion process. In the past year, my conversion research has expanded to investigate the perception of the American Muslim community. In order to effect positive social change I hope to share my findings with the public through workshops, discussion groups, and theater. This paper should be viewed as the springboard that led to my senior thesis and an ongoing social justice endeavor.

The Framing of China's Bird Flu Epidemic by U.S. Newspapers Influencial in China: How the New York Times and The Washington Post Linked the Image of the Nation to the Handling of the Disease
Creators: name: Song, Ning
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: This study conducted a framing research that analyzed coverage of the bird flu (avian flu) in China by two major American newspapers that are influential in China (The New York Times and Washington Post). The goal was to examine how these two prestigious newspapers frame the bird flu epidemic in China and how they represent the country in this international health crisis. This study employed textual analysis regarding the way bird flu news articles were framed in terms of problem definition, causal explanation, moral evaluation and solution recommendations in both newspapers. The study found the epidemic was framed as more than just a public health crisis. Multiple news frames were found in both newspapers' coverage of bird flu, depicting the event as a cultural, social and political crisis to the nation and to the world.
An Internal Communications Analysis of a U.S. Credit Reporting Agency
Creators: name: Carter, Styletta
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Audits of organizational communication have been viewed as an efficient means for collecting data and diagnosing common communication problems (Meyer, 2002), and evaluating employee communication satisfaction has proven to be a vital component of the auditor?s overall goal of assessing communication effectiveness. While communication audits have been used for the past 50 years by practitioners and scholars alike to evaluate the effectiveness of both external and internal communications, this particular analysis will explore the internal communications of a business-to-business sales division within a major U.S. credit reporting agency. Using Goldhaber?s (2002) method for administering Web-based communication surveys and a combination of Downs & Hazen?s (1977) Communication Satisfaction Questionnaire and Gayeski?s (2000) Information Systems Analysis, this study will assess how the salesperson?s satisfaction of the company?s electronic sales communications relates to perceived productivity.
Censorship of the BBC under Prime Ministers Thatcher and Blair

description: One of the central pillars of American democracy is a free press; it has been called the fourth branch of government and is the only business protected in the Constitution. Protection in the most sacrosanct American document does not necessarily create an uncensored media. Many nations do better at preventing government interference in their media. One such nation is Great Britain, which obstructs the media’s functioning, including its partisan newspapers, far less often. But even Great Britain is not completely innocent; various Governments (we would call them administrations) use their political muscle to have a story told their way. Prime Ministers Margaret Thatcher and Tony Blair have both done what they could to protect their policies and images on screen and in print. Both have attempted to gain control over some of the output of the BBC, which is reputedly a bastion of democracy, balance and truth. As an aspiring journalist and professed Anglophile, I was intrigued to research levels of government censorship in the BBC, my favorite source of news and information. When I was studying at the London School of Economics through the Hansard Programme I decided to investigate. I focused on Mrs Thatcher and Mr Blair as two incredibly influential and widely divergent politicians. As different as their policies were their ways of handling the media. New Labour was not constrained by the Conservative Government that came before it, and so Mr Blair reinvented how Westminster interacted with the media, as well as the policies therein.

description: Here Today, Gone Tomorrow' was an article featured in an special edition of 'Public Art Review' on Australia and New Zealand in a US based magazine covering the world of public art. The piece was located within an editorial selection of articles covering the many aspects of public art practice in Australia and New Zealand. The piece gave an overview of developments in ephemeral public art practices, programs and policies in each of the capital cities around Australia.

As Ephemeral practices are relatively new in being recognised as a policy approach for local governments, this article is one of the first to cover this aspect nationally from the perspective of the capital cities. The article gave a unique overview on developing ephemeral public art policy and practices occurring across Australian capital cities. The article revealed that artists practices into temporary approaches is being recognised at local government levels and is becoming translated and incorporated as a legitimate methodology to public art practice through programs which encourage these activities.
Patronizing Speech in Interability Communication toward People with Cognitive Disabilities
Creators: name: Morris, Vann
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Some people without disabilities may use patronizing speech when they talk to people with cognitive disabilities.  This study asked college-aged students without disabilities to evaluate patronizing speech toward people with cognitive disabilities. They randomly read either one of two vignettes; in one vignette a cashier with no disability used patronizing speech toward a customer with a cognitive disability, and in the other vignette a cashier with no disability used nonpatronizing speech toward a customer with a cognitive disability.  The participants evaluated the patronizing speech as being significantly less professional, appropriate, and common than the nonpatronizing speech.  They rated the cashier as feeling significantly more warm, supportive, and nurturing when s/he used patronizing speech, and the customer as feeling significantly less respect when spoken to through patronizing speech.  Significantly more participants believed they would have spoken differently than the cashier when s/he used patronizing speech.
Media Messages and Womens' Body Perceptions in Egypt

Year: 2007

description: This study explores the association between media exposure and women?s body perceptions in Egypt. The thin ideal perpetuated through the media, eating disorders and body dissatisfaction and drive for thinness were thought to be a culturally linked phenomena confined to Western societies. This study has contributed to the debate on cultural determinism of eating disorders and body dissatisfaction in women as it has shown that these concepts are on the rise in non-Western societies in general and Egypt in specific. When exposed to media messages, women in Egypt demonstrated eating disordered attitudes, body dissatisfaction feelings and also chose other compensatory behaviors such as veiling, fasting, and following diet.
Media Framing of Female Athletes and Women's Sports in Selected Sports Magazines
Creators: name: Nicely, Stacey
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: In order to determine how female athletes and women?s sports are framed in sports magazines, a textual analysis was conducted on three popular sports magazines (ESPN Magazine, Sporting News, and Sports Illustrated). The researcher analyzed the texts within these three magazines and found four emergent themes commonly applied to women in sports: mental weakness, male reference, motherhood and sisterhood, and celebrity. The research found both consistencies and inconsistencies in the thematic framing utilized among the three publications. The textual analysis also revealed a tendency for the sports media to reference individual sports more than team sports. Knowing the exact frames utilized in these magazines, allows the researcher to suggest solutions that may alleviate the negative portrayals of female athletes and women's sports in sports magazines. The results from this study also provide a foundation for those who wish to further explore and raise awareness on this issue.

Strangers in their Own Land: A Cultural History of Japanese American Internment Camps in Arkansas 1942-1945
Creators: name: Moss, Dori
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: While considerable literature on wartime Japanese American internment exists, the vast majority of studies focus on the West Coast experience. With a high volume of literature devoted to this region, lesser known camps in Arkansas, like Rohwer (Desha County) and Jerome (Chicot and Drew County) have been largely overlooked. This study uses a cultural history approach to elucidate the Arkansas internment experience by way of local and camp press coverage. As one of the most segregated and impoverished states during the 1940s, Arkansas? two camps were distinctly different from the nine other internment camps used for relocation. Through analysis of local newspapers, Japanese American authored camp newspapers,documentaries, personal accounts and books, this study seeks to expose the seemingly forgotten story of internment in the South. The findings expose a level of freedom within the internment camps, as well local reaction in the context of Arkansas?s economic, social and political climate.
Our father who wasn't there

subject: Creative writing (incl. scriptwriting)

description: BACKGROUND This work as a memoir dealing with questions of traumatic memory relates to other memoirs in this field such as Joan Didion's The Year of Magical Thinking and Raymond Gaita's Romulus my Father. Its form is also influenced by memoirs such as J.M. Coetzee's Boyhood and works investigating the crossing of nonfiction/fiction genres such as Brian Castro's Shanghai Dancing and the prose works of W.G. Sebald (Austerlitz, Rings of Saturn) CONTRIBUTION Using traumatic memory, this research opens up new literary possibilities in the memoir genre. It offers an approach to dealing with suicide and sensitive issues arising from it. The work represents a journey of questioning, discovery, and reflection as the author was only six months old when his father suicided. The author's journey entailed acute sensitivity towards family members in dealing with 'hidden secrets'. As his research proceeded it was both revealing and confronting. In this respect it provides a model for other writers interested in a similar genre of introspection on the one hand, and a broader curiosity and search for truth on the other.SIGNIFICANCE Scribe Publications was Australian Small Publisher of the Year 2006,08, 10. The work's value is attested to by the following indicators: reviewed in Times Literary Supplement, Weekend Australian, The Age, Sydney Morning Herald, Courier Mail, Sunday Age, West Australian; the author was invited to speak at the most highly regarded nonfiction conference in the USA, the Bedell NonfictioNow Conference, Iowa City, November 2010, and other writers' events including Sydney, Perth and Byron Bay Writers Festivals, and Writers at the Convent (Melbourne); author interview on ABC Radio National's Life Matters and Book Show. Uniquely, this work is more than a literary memoir: there is a sense in which it is a quasi-psychological study into suicide and traumatic memory. The methodological approach taken is an emerging research area.
Communicating a Crisis: The Public Information Officer's Perspective
Creators: name: Hale, Susan
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Established research on certain professions ? such as police officers, firefighters, and emergency rescue workers (also called "first responders") ? suggests that psychological trauma is related to traumatic events experienced on the job. This has led to research on journalists who have experienced comparable psychological effects due to repeated traumatic exposure that comes from reporting on crimes, murders, car accidents, natural disasters, or other stressful situations ? the same events experienced by first responders. This study examines public information officers and any similar psychological effects since this occupational group is a near professional cousin to journalists. Using an online survey, public information officers' exposure to traumatic events experienced on the job was measured as well as the frequency and intensity of trauma exposure.
Legislating after Terrorism: September 11, the News Media and the Georgia Legislature
Creators: name: Ramos, Rachel
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: This thesis sought to understand how specific print media and wire news services in Georgia framed the Georgia General Assembly?s response to terrorism after September 11, 2001. The study concluded that the most detailed coverage came from the Morris News Service, a wire service subscribed to by statewide newspapers, followed by the Associated Press state newswire, then The Atlanta-Journal Constitution and The Macon Telegraph. In general, the media in this study chose to cover security bills in terms of "issues," as opposed to the "game frame" or the "leadership frame." While "patriotism" and "security" also emerged as frames, they were more likely to be in quotations from lawmakers or other elites. Surprisingly, only two citizens were quoted in the 39 articles in this study, despite the fact that several controversial bills were among the 21 considered by the Georgia legislature in the 2002 session.

description: The Rideout trial in 1978 was the first case in the United States in which a wife charged her husband with rape while the couple was still living together. This thesis furthers research in the area of marital rape by examining the press coverage through textual analysis. The scope of the research is limited to newspaper coverage (local and national) and the subsequent made-for-television movie based on the trial. As a case study, the Rideout trial illustrates how the press has covered sexual assault in the United States?especially during the height of the 1970s women?s movement. The findings indicate that through the execution of various rape-centered scripts, traditional rape stereotypes were perpetuated and only a few were challenged. This perpetuation led to an initial invalidation of marital rape, including Greta Rideout?s claim of rape.

description: The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of gender and academic performance on math interest and confidence of sixty honors and gifted and talented freshmen at Patapsco High School & Center for the Arts. The students’ PSAT (Preliminary Scholastic Achievement Test) score from the fall of 2009 was used to gauge academic achievement. Math confidence and interest was assessed during June of 2010 through the Math Self-Efficacy and Interest Survey (MSES) by Betz and Hackett. Achievement gains were significant for math confidence and interest which negated the null hypothesis. Gender was only significant for math confidence not math interest. The results could be attributable to a number of intervening factors including enrollment constraints and participant age. Research in the area of high school math should continue given the continued disagreement over best teaching practices. The consequences of schools failing to provide social and emotional support to build math confidence and interest prohibit academic achievement and enrollment growth.
Havin' Fun With Supersize Stereotypes: McDonald's Online Marketing Campaign

description: From the Faculty Nominator: Vanessa wrote this essay for my English 105 Honors course. The class focused on the media, with the last third of the semester spent investigating advertising and working on a writing assignment that asked students to analyze an advertising campaign. Vanessa chose a little noticed McDonald’s Internet ad campaign targeting minorities titled “Havin’ Fun.” When Vanessa first pitched her paper topic to me, I thought she had mistaken a cluster of websites spoofing McDonald’s for actual McDonald’s advertising. Her description of the clunky and blatant stereotyping of Asians, Blacks, and Hispanics in this campaign didn’t fit with the idea of McDonald’s as a mega-corporation with millions of advertising dollars at its disposal. But a quick check of the McDonald’s homepage confirmed that these three “micro-sites”(one for each of the ethnicities targeted in the campaign)were indeed the products of the McDonald’s marketing campaign. Vanessa handles her topic skillfully. She combines analysis of this strange and disturbing ad campaign with a discussion of its implications for race in advertising. And she does so in a tone that often backfires but clearly works well here. Vanessa’s often sarcastic and disbelieving tone feels like the only rational response to McDonald’s transparent trafficking in racial stereotypes.
description: This is a paper written for English 105 in Fall of 2007. The class focused on American media, and the assignment was to study and analyze a recent marketing campaign. When choosing a subject, I recalled hearing something about McDonald’s “racist websites.” Upon looking further into these half-baked sites, I knew that this particular campaign was too bizarre to leave untouched. In my paper I write about McDonald’s “Havin’Fun” campaign, three micro sites targeted towards specific racial groups. I also cover the history of target-marketing, and the effects such oversimplified representations of race have on the consumer.

The Production of Si from SiO2 via the Ball-Milling Technique
Creators: name: Samuels, Margaret
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository

Subjects: Research -- Periodicals.

description: The ball-milling technique employs mechanical energy to reduce the particle size of reactants to a size
small enough to cause defects in the reactants’ lattice structures and produce active sites. In exothermic
reactions, solid-state diffusions within these active sites induce self-heat propagating synthesis (SHS),
allowing a complete reaction via mechanical energy. However, extracting silicon from silicon oxide using
aluminum is endothermic, and therefore milling alone does not complete the reaction. This study sought to
supplement the solid-state diffusion via the lattice defects with energy supplied by moderate heat treatment
as a method of producing pure silicon and to investigate the parameters of this method to maximize its
efficiency. The parameters tested were annealing temperature, milling time, and annealing time. The
relationship between annealing temperature and milling time was also investigated thoroughly. X-ray
diffraction, as well as some comparison with Atomic Force Microscopy, was used to determine the
presence of products in samples. The data confirmed that milling is necessary for the reaction to take
place, and that even one minute of milling can change the products significantly. The use of milling,
combined with a moderate heat treatment, can produce silicon in a way that is more environmentally
friendly and cost-effective than current methods and can be used at tonnage proportions for industrial
purposes.

Street Baptism, Machismo and Inner-City Street Culture: Purity and Danger among Contemporary Chicano Gangs in Los Angeles

description: From the Faculty Nominator: Auni wrote “Street Baptism” for anthropology course entitled “Religion, Myth and Symbol.” Taking the concepts of myth and ritual – often associated with so-called primitive societies -- she illustrates how anthropological methods provide the basis for a profound analysis of U.S. society that transcends the platitudes associated with American liberalism. Eschewing a patronizing stance toward marginalized citizens, she begins her paper with a sympathetic description of how Latino gangs use violence in initiation rituals. Rather than dismissing these activities as irrational, destructive, or a “culture of poverty,” Auni places these rituals within the broader social and economic context of disinvestment and retrenchment of the federal government that has left inner cities dilapidated. Focusing on Latino gangs in Los Angeles she connects gang activity to historical processes that have shaped and constrained the options regarding labor and social status for many working class residents. In the vacuum left by retreating industries and government agencies, she argues that gangs have provided many working class youth social and economic opportunities. In the end, Auni successfully tells us a story that transcends Latino gangs. Instead of being separate from the broader society, she shows how they represent the broader American ideals of self sufficiency and economic independence.
description: Although I myself am puzzled as to how my relatively sheltered, thoroughly middle-class, suburban upbringing fostered a passion for urban culture, I am nonetheless intrigued by all aspects of street life. My scholarly interest in urban culture began last year when I chose to study aerosol art (graffiti) for my International Scholars Program research project. I analyzed how aerosol art was used a device of postcolonialism— how, in New York City’s subways in the 1970s and 80s, these largely oppressed, lower-class minority youth used their available resources to develop a sense of voice, empowerment, and influence. I quickly became entrenched in the concept of the street, whether in terms of ritual and religion, systems of power, or relationship to mainstream American society. This paper was created for George Baca’s fall 2007 “Anthropology 234: Religion, Myth, and Symbol” class.

description: Our semester-long assignment for Qualitative Research Methods is one that has changed each of us in profound ways. Each person being motivated by a different curiosity, our group effectively used its own experiences with parental divorce in order to shed light on others' experiences. We interviewed Goucher undergraduates and analyzed their stories of parental divorce using the phenomenological design, which finds themes in seemingly distinct narratives. Through these themes, we were able to connect many of their current life choices with their past experiences. A parental divorce is a powerful life event that could possibly cause an infinite number of emotions and changes. Through our work, we hope to show that while each person's situation is different, many of the emotions, such as shame, guilt, apprehension, and fear, remain the same.

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of a set of practice techniques (pre-shot routines and breathing techniques) on overall free throw shooting percentage in games. The study included 9 African American, female college basketball players between the ages of 18 and 21. The researcher designed an intervention in which players were taught pre-shot routines and breathing techniques over a seven-week period. The researcher did not design any new instruments for use in the study. Players’ free throws were observed in the normal manner by the school’s sports information director. The study consisted of a pretest/posttest design to compare data from November 2009 (before the intervention was administered) to data from February 2010 (after the intervention was complete). An increase was observed when comparing the number of free throw attempts prior to the intervention to the number attempted afterwards; however, there was a decline in successful completions. While there are different techniques that can be used to improve free throw shooting, it is still important that players practice on a consistent basis taking shots that would be taken in an actual game.
