has being such a “hyper minority” in your field impacted your experience as a student, graduate student and now as a university faculty member? It has had a major impact and still continues to have one. You are pretty much constantly fighting against stereotype threat and wanting to be valued for what you do and not necessarily what you look like. It definitely has impacted the focus on my work in a way, because I was raised with a certain set of values —I like to bring those to my work as

He knew he needed to do a bunch of leak code problems. He knew he needed to have a portfolio and a website. And he did all these things in his capstone.” Ronquillo also worked on updating

In doing so, he lowered his personal best by more than two seconds. It was only Bollen’s third time running the event, including the first time when he tripped over a hurdle, got back up, and established a conference meet–qualifying time.

forgotten tombs and brought them to the forefront of the archaeological world. Ryan decided to focus his attention on the “obscure, undecorated and ignored” tombs within the Valley of the Kings. He was able to locate a half dozen tombs originally discovered in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s that had thought to have been lost. One of Ryan’s most notable finds is the re-discovery of Tomb 60, which was originally found by Egyptologist Howard Carter in 1903. Carter found the tomb in shambles, with most of

the overthrow of apartheid in South Africa to the civil rights movement in the United States; all these efforts began through the acts of ordinary people, he noted. Sometimes spectacular acts are called for, as in the story of Moses, but other times, great events begin with simple actions, such as a tired Rosa Parks deciding to stay “and refusing to move” on a bus. Tutu was the keynote speaker in the event that included performances by the PLUtonic and Hermonic a cappella groups, as well as songs

Yet for pure clout, based on its populous, it’s hard to argue against some of Jacques’s views. This Asian giant with a billion-plus population-four times the population of the United States-will likely resist globalization as we know it and that, Jacques argues, will have powerful ramifications for the rest of the world and the U.S. in particular
