Margaret Collins Weitz Papers (MS109), 1945-2015: A Finding Aid
The papers of Professor Emerita Margaret Collins Weitz of the Humanities and Modern Language Departments at Suffolk University relate to her scholarly research in the fields of women’s studies, French women, French culture and history, women in the French Resistance during World War II, and human rights. The collection also documents her extensive teaching career at Suffolk University in the Humanities and Modern Languages Departments and at Harvard University. The research collection includes interviews, published articles and books, conference materials, original research related to her publications, and class notebooks

Interior Design as Palimpsest: Meaning and Adaptive Reuse in Boston’s South End Landmark District
This research begins with the premise that buildings hold meaning. The built environment embodies a spirit, or genius loci, that creates a unique sense of place, defines cultural identity, reflects social values, and links community across time. The adaptive reuse of old buildings allows designers to be particularly sensitive to the ways in which architecture – either big or small, formal or informal – acts as a stationary but not static cultivator of and container for significance. The design process, then, becomes an adaptive reuse palimpsest, drawing upon and contributing to layers of history infused with significance, value, and meaning. Through the development of a culinary incubator space, interactive food lab, and cocktail lounge, this project utilizes the specific history, site, and context of the abandoned Hotel Alexandra in Boston’s South End Landmark District with the goal of empowering new connections, providing economic opportunity, and creating new stories of community and culture

The Experience of Codependency in Young Adult Romantic Relationships
This qualitative study used Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) to explore the lived experiences of codependency among four young adults (ages 21–24) who had recently exited a codependent romantic relationship. Through in-depth interviews, themes around emotional enmeshment, identity loss, boundary erosion, emotional suppression, and healing were found. Findings indicate that early attachment patterns, trauma, and socialization intersect with emotional vulnerability and self-worth to create conditions ripe for codependent dynamics. Participants describe both the psychological toll of these relationships and the personal growth that followed. These insights contribute to the limited literature on young adult codependency and may inform prevention and intervention efforts in counseling and mental health support
On Static Equilibrium State Of An Electron-Positron Pair Interacting By Electrostatic And Magnetic Forces
An electron-positron pair can be in static equilibrium where the magnetic torque is zero and the attractive Coulomb’s force between unlike charges and the repelling force between the spin magnetic moments of these two particles balance each other out. An electron-positron pair near the equilibrium position can be modeled as an oscillator consisting of two masses on a spring. The calculations of the equilibrium distance, the effective “electromagnetic spring constant”, and the frequency of oscillations of an electron-positron pair near the equilibrium are presented. The calculations might be useful for the students in their studies of electricity, magnetism, and particle physics. The same approach can be used for other compositions of particles that possess both properties – the electric charge and the magnetic moment, such as quarks. Introducing students to open-ended problems as part of their physics curriculum is integral for supporting conceptual learning. Such problems need to provide opportunities to apply what students already know and are capable of to explore novel questions. This could provide immense value to helping students not just “learn physics concepts” but to start developing a mindset of curiosity and experimentation
