Service Learning in a Non-majors Biology Course Promotes Changes in Students’ Attitudes and Values About the Environment
I was interested in whether the inclusion of a service-learning experience would affect students’ attitudes and values about the environment. To investigate this question, I incorporated a service-learning project into the laboratory portion of one of the two sections of my non-majors biology course, and kept the lecture portions of the course identical. Several methods were used to assess the impact of the service-learning experience: the New Ecological Paradigm survey was used to measure changes in students’ attitudes and values about the environment at the beginning and end of the semester, and reflective writing assignments were used throughout the semester qualitatively assess changes. Students’ evaluations of the course and the instructor were also compared. As predicted, participation in a service-learning project was associated with changes in students’ attitudes and values about the environment. Students in the service-learning lab were also more likely to positively rate the course and the instructor

Censorship and Conflict in Seventeenth-Century England : The Subtle Art of Division
Examines censorship in seventeenth-century England. Focuses on authors whose concerns and commitments were equally political and aesthetic, including William Prynne, Richard Lovelace, John Milton, Andrew Marvell, John Dryden, and Jonathan Swift.

The Fire Landscape
The Fire Landscape is a series of poem sequences that chronicle a wide variety of coming-of-age moments from childhood in the 1950s through the beginning of the 21st century. These deeply layered, complex narrative poems are connected by close personal observation of place and time but also by the politics of the Cold War and its aftermath, including a sequence driven by the May 4, 1970, shooting of students by the National Guard at Kent State where Gary Fincke was a student at the time.https://scholarlycommons.susqu.edu/facultybooks/1019/thumbnail.jp
