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.

A Guiding Hand: Grief Response in Young Adults works to guide young adults thought the grieving process after the traumatic death of a loved one. It goes through the steps of grieving and what a person can expect when they suddenly lose someone dear. Written from the point of view of someone who had lost their best friend in a murder/suicide, A Guiding Hand, shares a personal view that is often missing in other books on grief. This piece works to prepare other young adults for the unexpected emotions that are associated with grief. It also works to provide coping strategies to help recover from a traumatic loss in a healthy manner and to put people in touch with resources they may not know exist in order to help with healing.

This project was a teaching project for nursing students to educate them on how to cope with a patient death and what to expect when that situation comes in their career. The format for the education is a poster which will be displayed in the grace center. The idea came from the fact that student nurses are not exposed to a patient death and are also not prepared to cope with emotionally difficult situations like that. This poster stressed the importance of utilizing therapeutic coping mechanisms and mitigating negative ones. Also addressed were the responsibilities of postmortem care and cultural considerations regarding death. The main point of this project was to get student nurses to focus on developing positive coping skills prior to encountering a difficult situation in their career.
