  • Music Preferences: a Gateway to Where? by Delia Regan
    Music Preferences: A Gateway to Where? Delia Regan Anna Maria College Author’s Note Delia Regan (‘21), Music Therapy Honor Student, Anna Maria College This thesis was prepared for HON 490-01 Seniors Honors Seminar under the instruction of Professor Travis Maruska, Associate Professor of Humanities, Anna Maria College. Correspondence concerning this article should be addressed by electronic mail. Contact: [email protected], [email protected] ​ ​ ​ 1 Abstract This paper discusses the impact of peer pressure on shared music preferences which was conducted through a survey and group interviews. The information on the development of music preferences provides the reader with background on how the music preference process begins. Peer pressure is also discussed from early childhood into adulthood. The solidification of music preferences happens around the same age as college-aged individuals, which overlaps with a decrease in the impact of peer pressure. The research focuses on college-aged individuals who completed a survey on their music preferences in individual and group settings, and then were put into groups to determine if a social setting would influence their responses to the same questions. Overall, a distinct relationship between peer pressure and music preference could not be made. Keywords: College-Aged, Group Cohesion, Music, Music Preference, Peer Pressure, ​ Social Consequence 2 Music Preferences What does music taste say about a person? Music is usually a part of daily life, whether people are aware of it or not. It can help people express themselves, regulate their emotions, and, when used clinically, can help a person regain the ability to walk. Music is powerful, but what draws people to it? Studies have been done to try and determine why people are attracted to music, and they have created multiple theories trying to answer this question.

Mexican origin Youth and the Gang Context: Social Identities and School Experiences Abstract Youth, gang involved or not, living in a community with a gang problem are impacted in various ways. This study draws from qualitative interviews over the transition to high school of thirty-two Mexican origin students in Chicago. The Extended Case Method (ECM) was employed for the analysis of the qualitative data. Using borderlands and social identity theory, results indicated that the school response to the youth gang problem directly impacted students’ educational experiences, how staff viewed them, and how they negotiated these social categorizations. Students reported unrecognized trauma due to the level of violence and marginalizing experiences in school.

Tuesday, September 19, 2017 Song_2017.09.19_01TASCAM Charlie Cobb: [00:41] So the recorders are on and the levels are okay. Okay. This is a fairly simple process here and informal. What I want to get, as you all know, is conversation about music and the Movement. And what I'm going to do—I'm not giving elaborate introductions. I'm going to go around the table and name who's here for the record, for the recorded record. Beyond that, I will depend on each one of you in your first, in this first round of comments to introduce yourselves however you wish. To the extent that I feel it necessary, I will prod you if I feel you've left something out that I think is important, which is one of the prerogatives of the moderator. [Laughs] Other than that, it's pretty loose going around the table—and this will be the order in which we'll also speak—Chuck Neblett, Hollis Watkins, Worth Long, Candie Carawan, Bettie Mae Fikes. I could say things like, from Carbondale, Illinois and Mississippi and Worth Long: Atlanta. Cobb: Durham, North Carolina. Tennessee and Alabama, I'm not gonna do all of that. You all can give whatever geographical description of yourself within the context of discussing the music. What I do want in this first round is, since all of you are important voices in terms of music and culture in the Movement—to talk about how you made your way to the Freedom Singers and freedom singing.

  • “Taps" “Taps,” As We Currently Know It, Came About in 1862. Composed
    Newsletter 8 May 25 The History of “Taps" “Taps,” as we currently know it, came about in 1862. Composed right after the Seven Days Battles, a bloody battle that waged for a week in the summer of 1862, the song was intended to mourn the fallen. The two armies, led by Confederate General Robert E. Lee and Union Major General George B. McClellan, suffered over 36,000 casualties combined. While the Union Army was driven back down the Virginia Peninsula with Lee’s army continuing on toward Maryland, those who survived would not call either side victorious. One woman who witnessed the aftermath wrote, “Death held a carnival in our city.” After the shock of that battle, the Army of the Potomac was camped at Harrison’s Landing on the James River in Virginia, resting and recuperating, when Brigadier General Daniel Butterfield summoned Private Oliver Willcox Gordon, the brigade bugler, to his tent. Butterfield expressed not liking the bugle call used for Lights Out, because he thought it was too formal. According to Private Gordon, “During the early part of the Civil War I was bugler at the Headquarters of Butterfield’s Brigade, Meroll’s Division, Fitz-John Porter’s Corp, Army of the Potomac. Up to July, 1862, the Infantry call for Taps was that set down in Casey’s Tactics, which Mr. Kobbe says was borrowed from the French. One day, soon after the seven days battles on the Peninsular, when the Army of the Potomac was lying in camp at Harrison’s Landing, General Daniel Butterfield, then commanding our Brigade, sent for me, and showing me some notes on a staff written in pencil on the back of an envelope, asked me to sound them on my bugle.

  • Short Story Contest October 2020
    Short Story Contest October 2020 PROMPT: You had developed a habit of sleepwalking. But you weren’t alone now — it seemed like the whole town had started sleepwalking at night, too. The Sleepwalkers by Margy Ragsdale shouldn’t have been surprised; ever since the pandemic hit, everyone’s sleep patterns I have changed. It’s just that no one thought covid-19 would also cause a pandemic of somnambulism—you know, sleepwalking. I’ve been a sleepwalker all my life. From the time I was able to stand on my own two feet, those two feet have been taking me on moonlit strolls out of bed, to the kitchen, the living room, sometimes even out of the house, without me being awake or aware. I have showered, cooked, cleaned, and eaten—and once I even drove—while seemingly completely asleep. I accepted it when my parents, sleepover friends, dorm mates and others told me I had been walking and talking in my sleep again, and frankly, I felt a little special, having the ability to navigate the world wide asleep. But then the pandemic hit and I wasn’t special at all any more. I don’t know why I’m bothering to write this down, it’s stupid. Everyone knows what happened, and maybe even why, but I’m still processing the whole thing and this is how I process. Write it down, write it all down. Okay. Approximately seventeen lifetimes ago, we first read about “novel coronavirus COVID19”, whatever. Seems it hit a few cruise ships, but what’s so new about that? You couldn’t get me on one of those germ incubators on a good year, so no skin off my nose.
