“An ill-bred lady with a great big chip on her shoulder”: Gender and Race in Mainstream and Black Press Coverage of Eartha Kitt’s 1968 White House Dissent
Get PDFAn analysis of mainstream and black press coverage of Eartha Kitt’s January 1968 White House dissent on the Vietnam War is presented. Of particular interest is the way journalists constructed Kitt’s dissent for their audiences within intersecting discourses of gender and race.

A literary analysis of the American worker: Characterizations by London, Sinclair, Steinbeck and Rand.
No full textThis dissertation will examine the portrayal of the early twentieth century worker through the literature of Jack London, Upton Sinclair, John Steinbeck and Ayn Rand. Special attention is given to the role of technology as it is brought to bear on the worker within the prevailing economic system of laissez-faire Capitalism. While London, Sinclair and Steinbeck reflect on the travails of the pre-industrial and industrial worker, Rand extols the virtues of the industrialist only. Her body of work suggests that the working life of the mid-century worker has been standardized along with the rest of the manufacturing world. This homogenization extends to the worker\u27s home life and neighborhood. The literature of Richard Yates and Ken Kesey help to reflect the resulting alienation of the worker, and the individual, to his/her world
The Benefits of Fostering Reciprocal Relationships between Children with Autism and their Typically Developing Peers
Get PDFAutism is a disorder characterized by repetitive and restrictive patterns of behavior as well as deficits in development of social skills and purposeful language and communication. Students diagnosed with autism have been found to benefit greatly from fostering social interactions with their typically developing peers, gaining valuable skills such as initiation, attention, and response. This paper summarizes the efforts of Project New Friends which aimed to educate typically developing peers, as well as methodically increase social behaviors through implementation of a structured relationship-building class for three students diagnosed with autism and nine typically developing eighth grade peers. It is the persistent interactions with peers that allows students with autism the opportunity to develop and generalize social skills they lack
