Unselfish
“Unselfish” is a work of original non-fiction that seeks to understand how a woman's worth has been influenced by cultural and personal expectations over time. It examines how self-confidence and self-esteem have been shaped by inherited gender roles and social perceptions of female athletes. It interrogates how the self is accepted and sacrificed in the pursuit of individual and collective greatness, and how competition impacts self-expression and the fundamental need for belonging. These pages are the beginning of a memoir.Creative writingLiteratureDegree Awarded: M.F.A. Literature. American Universit

The Metaphysics of Gender in Aquinas and Finley
The first chapter of this thesis will provide background from Thomistic metaphysics that is necessary in order to investigate Thomas’ understanding of gender. This is done by looking to Thomas’ understanding of the person as a unity of body and soul and the relationship between substance and accident. The chapter will also include an investigation of substantial form and the power of generation. Then, the second chapter will examine Thomas’ explicit argument for gender stemming from matter, his classification of gender as a unique inseparable accident, and John Finley’s argument for gender stemming from the soul based on his understanding of the power of generation as ‘cogenerative’. Finley’s argument will ultimately be shown to be unsuccessful, leaving us to conclude that gender must come from matter.MetaphysicsAquinas, body, composite, Finley, Gender, soulPhilosophyDegree Awarded: M.A.--Philosophy.

Sign of closure at Jacob's Coffee House
Sign of closure at Jacob's Coffee House reads, in letter form, 'Tuesday, March 24. To My Beloved Customers, Last evening at 8 pm, the District of Columbia issued a COVID-19 Wireless Emergency Alert (WEA). This alert closes all non-essential businesses through April 24. Although Jacob's coffee shop is a 'grab-and-go' and thus may be considered an essential business, my priority is your health. Out of an abundance of caution, I am temporarily closing Jacob's. I will closely monitor the District's Coronavirus alerts and reopen as soon as i believe it is safe for you that I do. Thank you for your support. I hold deep affection for each of you and hope to see you over coffee again very soon. I pray that you and your loved ones are safe and in good health. Warmly, Jasmin. Write to say hello!
