Allegory, Symbolism, and Metaphor in le Roman de Fauvel
Get PDFRoman de Fauvel is a 14th century work composed of poetry, story, an overarching narrative, and music to accompany the literature. In this study, our research is dedicated towards finding and analyzing the many instances of allegory and symbolism in the highly philosophical, satirical, and critical work. Using French 13th and 14th century historical context, we determine the origins of the subject matter of these allegories. Through this historical lens, we can observe what du Bus wants to convey through allegory as a response to his historical climate, and we can take that response and assign meaning to it in the form of literary and musical analysis. In summation, this paper will be about allegory in Roman de Fauvel, the meaning of the allegories, the purpose of them, what history influenced them, and why they are important in our literary and musical history

Light Pollution Levels on Beaches: How Window Tinting Effects Disorientation of Sea Turtles on Hilton Head Island
Get PDFLoggerhead sea turtles, an endangered species, are decreasing at alarming rates worldwide. Artificial light from beachfront hotels on Hilton Head Island are causing disorientation in Loggerhead sea turtle hatchlings affecting their ability to successfully find the ocean. To mitigate this, exterior windows facing the ocean will be tinted using either tinting spray, which will be implemented at the Marriott Grande Ocean, or using tinting film, which will be implemented at the Marriott Westin. During the typical nesting and hatching season (May-October), sea turtle hatchling tracks will be recorded using drones to compare the effects of various levels of light pollution on degrees of disorientation. Following the tinting, it is expected that levels of light pollution on the beaches will decrease, allowing for more hatchlings to find the ocean successfully. These mitigation efforts are important to implement to increase the population of Loggerhead sea turtles on Hilton Head Island and eventually other endangered sea turtles and marine species
Black Lips Don\u27t Turn Blue: A Womanist Critique of Discriminatory Language in Medical Education
Get PDFThis paper examines race and gender inequities in healthcare as it pertains to the unequal presentation of descriptors of illness in medical textbooks. The author adopts a womanist perspective to criticize the use of the white male body as the standard for all patients, which causes signs and symptoms in women and people of color to be dismissed as less important. Following an analysis of normalizing language in current medical texts as well as its consequences for patients, the author calls for a system-wide shift to more inclusive, intersectional medical education that not only acknowledges differences among patient groups, but also places diversity in equal conversation with the presumed norm.
