Barrett, The Honors College at Arizona State University proudly showcases the work of undergraduate honors students by sharing this collection exclusively with the ASU community.

Barrett accepts high performing, academically engaged undergraduate students and works with them in collaboration with all of the other academic units at Arizona State University. All Barrett students complete a thesis or creative project which is an opportunity to explore an intellectual interest and produce an original piece of scholarly research. The thesis or creative project is supervised and defended in front of a faculty committee. Students are able to engage with professors who are nationally recognized in their fields and committed to working with honors students. Completing a Barrett thesis or creative project is an opportunity for undergraduate honors students to contribute to the ASU academic community in a meaningful way.

Food is one of the most universal and uniting human experiences. It is a powerful tool to bring communities together and it is a simple way to bring joy to an individual.

Together with a representative working at the Phoenix office of the AHA a project to create a marketing material which focused on volunteer retention was formed. Volunteer retention was addressed in two ways. First, through the understanding of volunteer motivations to attract volunteers with a higher predisposition to positive outcome experience within a specific organization. Secondly, understating the influences on both general and student volunteer satisfaction linked with volunteer retention. The pamphlet includes both information pulled directly from multiple AHA public information and information collected from employees at the Phoenix office of the AHA. Questions were built to gather information specific to the research conducted on volunteer motivation and satisfaction. These questions were then disseminated to a supervisor over at the Phoenix office of the AHA. The resulting answers were then returned, summarized and used in the completed pamphlet. The final product created is a digital pamphlet which was made while adhering to basic principles of pamphlet design and marketing.

The automotive community is incredibly vast and expansive in the southwest corner of the United States. In the Phoenix area, there is a large distinction of “car culture” within the fundamental parameters that define society in general: the upper echelon of the wealth bracket usually engages with their own, and the byproduct is that their automotive tastes lie often in the luxury exotic supercar market. Example vehicle manufacturers include Porsche, McLaren, Ferrari, and Lamborghini. In the mid to lower wealth bracket a similar model is observed, members often only engage with their own, and again the automotive byproduct is a representation of such, with example manufacturers including Honda, Nissan, Toyota, and Subaru. This stark distinction of classes begs the question: how would these unique class distinctions fare when both these groups are paired together from an automotive perspective, and what are the potential implications of this unique aggregation with high fashion?
