Barrett

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.

AIR, being short for the Arts Initiative for Refugees, is a new, self-founded organization that provides refugee youth with sessions, programs, and opportunities to help them achieve artistic and personal success through teaching and mentorship. AIR strives to offer individualized and group mentoring programs to its students designed for their unique interests in the arts fields of their choice. The immediate objective of this organization, which my thesis was founded upon, was to introduce refugee youth at a newcomer school, Valencia Newcomer School, to various new art forms utilizing direct application, to play and have fun, to create a sense of community and support, to create a safe, inclusive environment, to help the students learn more about each other's cultures and backgrounds, and to allow the students to create art work that is genuine to them and their backgrounds. The ultimate goal of AIR is to branch out to become a small-scale, national/international non-profit organization.

This project and podcast were created to examine the feasibility of integrating interdisciplinary education within higher education to allow students to explore beyond an explicitly defined discipline. The project works to discuss how students have incorporated or failed to incorporate their own interests within their education. The podcast seeks to prove the value of interdisciplinary education within higher education and how that can plant the seeds for future cross functional application in the job market. The project works to establish the importance of grassroots change and how an individual’s experience with education can influence a whole generation's relationship with learning. Through student and faculty interviews, subsequent analyst and research I intended to prove that higher education must recognize and act on the bridging the divide between various disciplines to promote cross functionality beyond schooling.
