The Symposium is designed to provide USC undergraduates with the unique opportunity to exhibit and share examples of their significant research, scholarly and creative work with the university community. Although the Symposium is modeled on a professional conference poster session, students may exhibit their work in a variety of ways, such as through posters, art exhibits, and electronic media. All undergraduates are encouraged to participate. An award ceremony recognizing the most outstanding works will take place at the end of the symposium and includes First Prize awards of $1000 and Second Prize awards of $500 in each of the following categories. Arts Humanities Social Sciences Life Sciences Physical Sciences, Mathematics & Engineering A panel of distinguished faculty will judge submissions in each category. After the judging, you are cordially invited to attend the Award Ceremony at Town & Gown at 6:00 p.m. where the winners will be announced. We hope you enjoy USC’s Undergraduate Symposium, which promises to be a highlight of the semester this year and in many years to come. Sincerely, Elizabeth Garrett Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs iii The USC Undergraduate Symposium for Creative and Scholarly Work provides undergraduates with the unique opportunity to exhibit and share examples of their significant research and creativity with the university community. This year, we have received nearly 140 submissions with participation from over 180 students. Students present work in a variety of ways, such as through poster/panel sessions, art exhibits, and electronic media. All undergraduates are encouraged to participate. For some students, the symposium serves as a culmination of work they have produced in partial fulfillment of a senior honors project, or a research project with faculty, both individually and as part of a program. ACKOWLEDGEMENTS On behalf of the Office of Undergraduate Programs and the Office of the Provost, we graciously thank USC faculty and graduate judges for volunteering their time. The success of the undergraduate symposium is largely due to the contribution of their expertise in the judging process. We would like to give special thanks to the USC Trojan Knights for their faithful service. Also, we would like to give a warm thanks to the faculty advisors who have sponsored students in this year’s Symposium. Your dedication to embrace teaching through inquiry-based learning has made this event as successful as it has been. And finally, we would like to express our gratitude to USC Stevens for their time, effort and commitment to this extraordinary event.

  • Our Relationship with Time and Temporality in Organisational Practice
    Being (on) time – our relationship with time and temporality in organisational practice Birgitte Pedersen Volume 1 Abstract Issue 1 Thinking about time as something separate to us dominates organisational practice1. Identity questions, career plans, hopes and dreams for both the Winter 2017 individual as well as the organisation are built upon a timeline, and tools and models are designed to remove the obstacles into the future. This paper’s aim is to inspire the professional to be aware of the difference Keywords: between chronology and temporality in order to include more temporal before-the-fact, aspects into their organisational work. The right timing, readiness and block view, attention to temporality in language are examples of indicators on the beyond OD, temporal forms, and it all begins by accepting that we are temporality relational, dialogical, ourselves – regardless of whether we are able to articulate or notice the time, temporality, forms appearing right in front of us. Chronos, Kairos Resumé (Danish) Citation Link Organisatorisk praksis i dag er præget af, at vi tænker ”tid” som uafhængigt af alt andet. Vi isolerer ”tid” på en tidslinje, og vi bygger vores spørgsmål, karriereplaner, modeller, håb og drømme for både den enkelte såvel som for organisationen op omkring denne tidslinje. Formålet med denne artikel er at inspirere den fagprofessionelle til at tænke over og skelne mellem ”tid” som kronologi og som temporalitet, så der kan inkluderes flere temporale aspekter i det organisatoriske arbejde. Udover at skabe en opmærksomhed på sprog, parathed og den rette timing, er formålet med artiklen at pege på behovet for den fagprofessionelles indre accept af, at mennesket i sig selv en temporalitet, der former og fortolker tid – uanset om det enkelte menneske er bevidst om det eller ej.

  • The Book of Gods,Goddessess,Heroes and Other Characters of Mythology
    The book of Gods,Goddessess,Heroes and other Characters of Mythology In broad terms mythology is composed of traditional stories about gods, kings, and heroes. Myths often tell about the creation of the world (and about its destruction as well), about the creation of men, and, also, they provide lessons on a moral code by which to live. They were attempts to provide rationale to natural events and to human emotion. Mythological stories generally were passed on orally from generation to succeeding generation. Each tale, embellished and "corrupted" through the re-tellings, was probably a reasoned explanation of the facts as seen by unsophisticated and uneducated eyes. Most scholars today divide the subject into three categories: pure myth (primitive science and primitive religion), heroic saga (primitive history), and folklore (fictional stories). Mythological Characters WorldWide African Mythological Characters NOTE 1: Almost all African peoples believed in a supreme god who created the universe and all within it; this belief pre-dated the infiltration of the Christian or Islamic religions. This does not mean they believed in a monotheistic faith, for this supreme god had many under-gods. This deity was personalized in their individual mythologies, usually as a bi-sexual or non-sexual being, father and mother of all creatures and creator of every detail of earth. Abassi (Nigeria) Efik tribe's creator of the world. Abuk The first woman, according to the Dinka people of Africa. She is the patron goddess of women and gardens. Her emblem is a little snake. Adu Ogyinae (Ashanti) The first man. He was the leader of the seven men, some women, a dog and a leopard who were the first beings to come to the surface of the earth from holes in the ground.
