Gender Differences in Attitudes Towards Bystander Intervention
No full textIn the college environment, young adults are often faced for the first time with new and discomforting situations. In these situations, male and female students may respond differently. This study aims to examine these differences in reactions to situations that involve potential victims of sexual assault. Using 4 items from the Bystander Behaviors Scale (Banyard, Eckstein & Moynihan, 2009, 111) we measure students’ attitudes towards helping possible victims of sexual assault. Data were collected from a convenience sample of undergraduate students surveyed electronically in 2017, are used to examine gender differences. A T-test showed on average females reported attitudes more favorable of helping victims than males. This study aims to raise awareness between both genders on bystander attitudes and intervention
Discovering PFAS in New Hampshire: Risks and Remediation
Get PDFPFAS’s are a group of human made chemicals found in both consumer and industrial products. Originally, they were developed by the company 3M to produce nonstick and waterproof materials like Teflon. Although certain PFAS’s have been banned, they are now being discovered in landfills and water sources across NH in various concentrations, some alarmingly high. Investigations regarding the chemicals persistence in the environment began in NH in 2014. Little comprehensive scientific evidence exists in relation to contaminant quantities and their health risks. Regardless of the lack of long-term studies, NH Department of Environmental Services must regularly test water sources across the state for compliance with new regulations, beginning in 2019. NH now has one of the lowest “maximum contaminant loads” allowed for PFAS’s in the US. While this standard sounds beneficial, it is controversial for a number of reasons, including who is going to absorb the cost of testing and how is the ubiquitous contaminant going to be removed. Major goals of this study are: 1) to raise awareness about the role the consumer plays by buying products containing PFAS’s, 2) compare and contrast the different policies regarding regulation and management of chemicals in the US versus the European Union
SDS and Recollections of a ’60s Radical
Get PDFDuring the 1960s in Denver, Colorado, Gary McCool was an activist in the civil rights movement and especially in the anti-Vietnam War movement. His activism developed out of a growing awareness of the injustices in the country at the time and was largely centered on the Vietnam War. As a graduate student in History at the University of Denver, Gary and a doctoral student at DU formed a campus chapter of the New Left student group Students for a Democratic Society (SDS). In this presentation, Gary will discuss the roots of SDS, the influence of its founding document – the Port Huron Statement – and a particular anti-war protest at DU in 1966 involving then Secretary of State Dean Rusk
