SUMMARY:25th Women’s & Gender Studies Conference: (Re)Making the World: A “How-To” Conference on Feminist\, Crip\, and Decolonial Worldmaking
DESCRIPTION:In As We Have Always Done: Indigenous Freedom Through Radical Resistance (2017)\, Leanne Betasamosake Simpson writes: “Resurgence is not a metaphor. It is the flight out of settler colonialism\, towards something we have been taught is impossible.”  \nThe 2026 WGS conference takes Simpson’s call for radical resurgence seriously – positioning “how-to” as a feminist practice\, politic\, and theorizing. We invite communities to gather for a feminist\, crip\, and decolonial practice of refusal\, survival\, and worldmaking. \nWe are currently seeking proposals for our 2026 Conference! \nFor more information on submission guidelines and conference details\, please visit our Conference Website here: https://inside.southernct.edu/womens-and-gender-studies/conferences/2025

SUMMARY:Dissertation Defense: Mercedes Mckelvie
DESCRIPTION:Title: TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION IN URBAN HIGH SCHOOLS: GENERATIONAL PERSPECTIVES AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT \nAbbreviated Abstract: This mixed-methods study explored school staff perceptions of generational differences in the use and benefits of various classroom technologies. The study investigated how educators perceive technology integration across different generational cohorts\, emphasizing the perceived impact of these differences on teaching\, learning\, and communication in an urban high school setting. The research employed a survey with both Likert-scale and open-ended questions\, along with focus group interviews\, to assess staff perspectives on generational differences in technology use in the classroom. These qualitative and quantitative data points were used in tandem to provide context. The students were not directly surveyed or interviewed\, nor were observations of classroom instruction included. The findings revealed how staff perceptions of generational differences inform professional development strategies and guide technology integration in multi-generational educational environments. This study contributed to the limited research on generational divides in K-12 education\, focusing on educators’ technology use rather than on student access.

SUMMARY:Thesis Defense: Xinyi (Cindy) Gao
DESCRIPTION:Title: COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF TONGUE STRENGTH MEASUREMENT IN YOUNG ADULTS: WITH AND WITHOUT BITE BLOCK COVERS \nAbbreviated Abstract: The use of bite block covers is a common infection control measure in dental and medical settings; however\, little is known about their impact on tongue strength measurements using the Iowa Oral Performance Instrument (IOPI). Further\, there is little to no previous research investigating how bite block covers may influence tongue strength assessments during regular and effortful swallowing across different bolus consistencies. In this study\, tongue strength measurements with and without a bite block cover were compared in healthy young adults to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of using these covers in clinical and research settings. Findings from this study may help inform best practices for speech-language pathologists (SLPs) and researchers assessing oral motor function while maintaining infection control standards.

SUMMARY:Dissertation Defense: Keith Smith
DESCRIPTION:Title: THE WORK: EXAMINING THE LIVED EXPERIENCES OF CT INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DEI DIRECTORS \nAbbreviated Abstract: Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion (DEI) practitioners play a critical role in advancing equity within independent schools\, yet research examining their lived experiences remains limited—particularly within K–12 independent day school contexts. This qualitative study addresses this gap by exploring the lived experiences of DEI directors in Connecticut independent schools\, centering how they navigate complex\, often ambiguous roles within institutions historically shaped by privilege.

SUMMARY:Dissertation Defense: Serginho Walker
DESCRIPTION:Title: Examining the Unique Mental Health Challenges of Nonbinary and Gender Expansive Gay Black Men \nAbbreviated Abstract: This study examines the unique mental health challenges experienced by nonbinary and gender expansive gay Black men\, with particular attention to how intersecting systems of oppression—including anti-Black racism\, cisnormativity\, heteronormativity\, and gender binarism—shape their lived experiences. Despite growing research on LGBTQ+ mental health\, the experiences of gender expansive Black men remain significantly underrepresented in counseling and psychological literature. Using a qualitative methodology grounded in Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) paired with autoethnography\, this study centers the voices and narratives of participants to generate rich\, in-depth understandings of how individuals make meaning of their intersecting identities\, mental health experiences\, and sources of resilience. IPA\, combined with autoethnographic reflection\, is particularly appropriate for this inquiry because the researcher serves as a participant-observer\, allowing for deeper interpretive engagement with the phenomenon being studied (Hurst\, 2023). This methodological approach emphasizes the co-construction of meaning between researcher and participant and is grounded in phenomenological and interpretive traditions that prioritize lived experience (Smith\, Flowers\, & Larkin\, 2009). The study is further informed by counseling and counselor education frameworks that emphasize culturally responsive\, identity-affirming\, and strengths-based perspectives when working with marginalized populations (Hays & Singh\, 2019). Findings from this research aim to contribute to a deeper understanding of the mental health needs of nonbinary and gender expansive gay Black men while informing more inclusive clinical practices\, strengthening culturally responsive mental health interventions\, and supporting ongoing social justice efforts within counselor education and related helping professions. This presentation will be held Wednesday\, April 1\, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. via Microsoft Teams\, with an in-person viewing available in Room 217.
