    get to do theoretical research,” Underwood said. “I’ve been very hands-off. I would say, ‘This is what we need to think about; go and see if you can get this to work,’ so Auberry would go off. It’s a great opportunity for them to get involved in research, exercise their curiosity, really become part of the scientific community.” Fortuner carried out 15 to 20 different scenarios, or hypothetical universes, over the course of the summer. To the researchers’ surprise, each scenario ended with

  • Senior Physics capstone presentations will take place Monday, May 6th starting at 2pm in Rieke 103B. 

    , variable stars are affected by various different phenomena, and hence it requires different equations to model these varying trends in the light curves. Creating light curves and applying mathematical models was most easily done using the coding program Python, which was greatly reliable with many data manipulation and modeling libraries and packages. Variable star light curve data was acquired from the ASAS-SN atlas database and was subsequently applied with theoretical mathematical formulae

    2020 Gender, Sexuality, and Race Studies CapstonesMessage from Seth Dowland, WMGS Chair: We are delighted to present the abstracts of our 2020 Women’s and Gender Studies capstone students. The WMGS capstone offers students the opportunity to draw on theoretical tools they have learned in their courses in order to think critically about work they are doing in a practicum. This combination of theory and praxis is a hallmark of women’s and gender studies, and it posed a particular challenge to our

  • Originally Published 1996 Introduction Like other disciplines such as English and Sociology, Foreign Languages also have a history in the United States which is linked to the changing values of society as a whole. The discipline of foreign language teaching has evolved over the last…

    . Although this theoretical distinction is questionable, it remains a useful model of what happens in foreign language teaching; the language teacher is in the position of trying to teach langue, when in fact only parole is ever possible.  The image of language presented in the classroom is also that of a neutral, value-free tool of communication. Some linguists would argue, however, that language is always ideologically charged. In its most general expression, this idea builds on the Whorf-Sapir theory
