The Relationship Experience of Latina/o-White Couples by Dana Nixon A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of St. Cloud State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy December, 2015 Thesis Committee: Jennifer Connor, Chairperson Manijeh Daneshpour Tina Sacin 2 Abstract Interethnic Latina/o-white couples are becoming more common, yet little is understood about why these couples stay together or get divorced (Fu & Wolfinger, 2011; Garcia, Riggio, Palavinelu, & Culpepper, 2012; Qian & Lichter, 2007). This study uses phenomenology methodology to better understand their lived experience. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with five Latino-white couples and one Latina-white couple. The five themes discovered include interethnic couple identity; combining languages; external support of the relationship; external stressors of the relationship; and partaking in the partner’s culture.

  • An Analysis of Hegemonic Social Structures in "Friends"
    "I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU" IF YOU ARE JUST LIKE ME: AN ANALYSIS OF HEGEMONIC SOCIAL STRUCTURES IN "FRIENDS" Lisa Marie Marshall A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2007 Committee: Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor Audrey E. Ellenwood Graduate Faculty Representative James C. Foust Lynda Dee Dixon © 2007 Lisa Marshall All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the dominant ideologies and hegemonic social constructs the television series Friends communicates in regard to friendship practices, gender roles, racial representations, and social class in order to suggest relationships between the series and social patterns in the broader culture. This dissertation describes the importance of studying television content and its relationship to media culture and social influence. The analysis included a quantitative content analysis of friendship maintenance, and a qualitative textual analysis of alternative families, gender, race, and class representations. The analysis found the characters displayed actions of selectivity, only accepting a small group of friends in their social circle based on friendship, gender, race, and social class distinctions as the six characters formed a culture that no one else was allowed to enter. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project stems from countless years of watching and appreciating television. When I was in college, a good friend told me about a series that featured six young people who discussed their lives over countless cups of coffee. Even though the series was in its seventh year at the time, I did not start to watch the show until that season.

II __. _ Breaking Away: A Study of First- Generation College Students and Their Famiilies HOWARD B. LONDON Bridge-water State College Detailed family histories were taken of students who were the first in their families to go to college. This paper utilizes the psychoanalytic and family systems theory of Helm Stierlin and others to explore (1) how college matriculation for first-generation students is linked to multi- generational family dynamics, and (2) how these students reconcile (or do not reconcile) the often conflicting requirements of family membership and educational mobility. The same modernity that creates the possibility of opportunity for these students is seen also to create the potential for biographical and social dislocation. Introduction Several years ago the film Breaking Away was a box office success across America. On the surface it was the story of "town-gown" frictions between the "cuttters" of Bloomington, Indiana-so called because they were the children of the men who mined the local limestone qtuarries-atid the ostensibly more sophisticated but condescending students of Indiana University.

    CROWLEY CLAN NEWSLETTER March 2014 compiled by Marian Crowley Chamberlain Page 1 of 8 Letter from the Taoiseach Michael-Patrick O'Crowley 3 rue de la Harpe Taoiseach Crowley Clan Saint-Leger, France Dear Clansmen and Members, I wish you a wonderful 2014 year, may this New Year bring you health and happiness to your families and dear ones. 2014 is going to be a special year for the Crowleys as we are celebrating the thousandth year of our name. We are coordinating our participation to the anniversary of the battle of Clontarf in Dublin with the O'Briens, the preliminary plans are as follows: • April 23, travel from West Cork to Killaloe, visit of Brian Boru's birth place and round fort homestead. Visit of ClareGalway Castle, lecture on Irish medieval architecture, complementary banquet in the castle Hotel: ClareGalway Hotel - €75 per double room (10 rooms prebooked) • April 24, Travel to Dublin, March of the Clans, Crowley Clan night out • April 25, Reenactment of the Battle of Clontarf (organised by Clontarf Council).

Please note these dates in your calendar to prepare for your travelling. Finally, we are still working on the reediting of the Crowley Clan book - we have had some technical issues due to compatibility of tools the manuscript being on a very old version of StarOffice and on diskettes.

  • Love Our Growers
    Love Our Growers AN AUSTRALIAN JOURNEY ON SOURCING, MAKING AND FORAGING DRAFTED BY DATE Thomas Spinks 13th October 2020 @ L O V E O U R G R O W E R S Breakdown I. Executive Summary II. Introduction III. Concept IV. Inspiration and Mood Board P A G E 2 / 9 I. Executive Summary In every part of our life technology allows us to know where things are at, with everyone. We value it. We feel if brings us power. But we have lost connection with the source of our literal fuel. Where our food comes from, what to do with it, how to connect with it – this is our goal. There has been a small awakening from the pandemic, the realisation that time is precious, that food matters and that money and possessions aren't the source of what makes us happy. We want to take you on a local journey (Australia) as a family and show you where you food comes from, what do with unique ingredients - native, heritage and foraged - and how getting to the source of your food benefits you, the farmer and the local economies that exist. Inordinate amounts of money spent each day, week and year on diet fads, food deliveries, either fast food or the fresh food boxes we have embraced. We are in shock when a celebrity shows us how pigs or chickens are treated, for a moment we want to buy differently, more consciously. But then we lose it. Time moves on. Gluten free, sugar free, dairy free, animal product free, toxin free, chemical free, free range – the list goes on.
