b'School Shootings in the United States of America: Ways to Help Identify and Prevent Future OccurrencesQuinton Forrester, Department of Sociology, Anthropology & Criminal JusticeFaculty Sponsor: Dr. Wilson Huang, Department of Sociology, Anthropology & Criminal JusticeSchool shootings have been affecting people all across the United States of America. This presentation goes into depth about the identification and past and future prevention of school shooting in the United States. The studies that were reviewed in this research show a drastic incline of school shootings in the last two decades. There have been many ways to try to prevent future school shootings from happening such as having a trained officer in every school or even trying to arm K-12 school teachers with weapons. But, there has not been a solution that has truly prevented all school shootings from happening. This is an increasing problem that is happening in the United States and we need to find ways to prevent future school shootings from reoccurrence.The Emotional Aftermath of Sexual Harassment and AssaultAnna Vicky Ray, Department of Sociology, Anthropology, Criminal JusticeFaculty Sponsor: Dr. Shelly Yankovskyy, Department of Sociology, Anthropology & Criminal JusticeThis paper examines the emotional impact women face following their experience with sexual harassment and assault. Original research was conducted in the spring of 2019 using a mixed methods approach.Social media was used as a vehicle to locate women to participate in an online survey, with some participants completing follow up structured interviews. These women came from diverse ethnic backgrounds, ages, and social classes. Participants were asked questions about their experiences, as well as the impact these experiences have had on their lives.The goal of this research is to better understand how sexual harassment and assault can leave emotional scarring long after the initial experience. 77'
