The NFL and The Digital Era: How Social Media Has Redefined the National Football League
Full text linkTo summarize this senior project, you can look at it from two perspectives. One being- a sports fan interested in fan engagement, or someone more interested in social media marketing. This paper shows how both work together to improve one another just the same. As the NFL transitioned from traditional marketing to a dynamic, real-time digital strategy, social media emerged as a powerful tool to reach diverse audiences and foster deeper connections with fans. By leveraging platforms, the NFL has not only expanded its global digital footprint but also redefined its presence in the entertainment industry. This report analyzes the evolution, structure, and strategies behind the NFL\u27s social media efforts and how ultimately it has been the key driver for the NFL\u27s continued dominance and relevance with fans and media
Unmasking Fantasy: Race and the Power of Representation in Twilight and Beyond
Full text linkIn this project, I take a closer look at the racial dynamics in The Twilight Saga. I focus on how the series centers whiteness—making it seem normal and invisible—while pushing non-white characters, especially Indigenous ones, to the side.
I talk about how Twilight doesn’t just ignore race—it builds a world where whiteness is ideal. It creates a clear racial ladder, putting white characters at the top, and showing non-white characters, like the Quileute werewolves, in very limited and harmful ways. These werewolves are based on a real Native American tribe—but the books and movies took from their culture without asking or giving credit or support. This has had real effects on the Quileute people.
I also connect Twilight to a bigger issue: the way fantasy stories often use race to create simple, harmful ideas about who is good, who is wild, who is powerful, and who is not. By looking at how Twilight tells its story, I want to show how the media shapes how we see race—and why we need more diverse and fair storytelling, especially in popular genres like fantasy
