Implicit bias and stereotyping in Disney's Zootopia
In 2016, Disney’s Zootopia began a discussion of implicit biases and stereotypes in a world
content with the assumption that a lack of outright racism meant a lack of all racism. Through
the tale of a bunny cop and a criminal fox, Zootopia revealed a hidden story of how even the
most subconscious of beliefs and actions can cause harm, imploring its audience to self-reflect as
it posed a powerful topic in a unique, dynamically objective light. By closely studying the film
and noting the patterns and impacts of implicit bias and stereotyping throughout, a better
understanding of the film’s deeper meaning and real life implications can be gained, and a
template for future films and other projects aiming to accomplish a similar goal is revealed.
Through careful categorization and analysis of the instances of implicit bias and stereotypes in
Zootopia, I discuss how the simple tale of two animals learning how to break away from the
stereotypes surrounding them has become a modern fable for 21st-century society.Thesis (B.?)Honors CollegeUndergraduate senior honors thesisHonors Colleg
"Qui tacet consentire videtur": Christoph Andreas Fischer’s Polemical Exchange with the Hutterite "King" Klaus Braidl (1603–04)
La littérature polémique de la fin du XVIe siècle et du début du XVIIe siècle ne fait que commencer à être étudiée comme telle, du point de vue des stratégies rhétoriques et des tropes littéraires. Cet article propose une analyse littéraire de l’échange polémique entre un prêtre jésuite, Christoph Andreas Fischer, et un chef huttérite anabaptiste, Klaus Braidl, qui a eu lieu entre 1603 et 1604. L’échange entre Fischer et Braidl est un témoignage du conflit hargneux en basse Autriche et dans le sud de la Moravie au sujet de la tolérance envers les anabaptistes, dont faisaient preuve les seigneurs de cette zone, y compris celui de la région de Fischer et Braidl, Karl von Liechtenstein

On the photophysical behaviour of 4-halo-5-phenylisoxazoles
Detailed spectral and photophysical properties of 4-halo-5-phenylisoxazoles in cyclohexane solutions are presented, including measurements of energies of lowest excited singlet and triplet states, fluorescence quantum yields, lifetimes, phosphorescence and triplet-singlet difference absorption spectra. Upon addition of ethanol, loss of vibrational structure is observed in fluorescence spectra and attributed to formation of isoxazole-ethanol aggregates. The relevance of these properties to the photochemical and thermal reactivity of these systems is discussed.http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/B6TFN-4H16P6W-D/1/aee849eb84047bd4755109fdbbc0c52
