AFTERNOON Presentations
With this project the researcher will examine and analyze if modern technology and social media has had an impact on criminals who use the Internet to stalk youth. The research question focuses on whether or not the Internet has made it easier for child predators to prey on children. The research will determine whether or not these technologies have made it easier for minors to be solicited, and what limitations the Internet may have on child stalkers. The researcher will examine the different types of social media in contemporary culture to determine if these technologies have an influence on the problem of child predation.

Have you ever felt threatened in an area less than 2 miles or 3 miles from your home? I can recall a moment in my life when I felt threatened in an area that was very familiar. Miamisburg Ohio is a predominantly Caucasian city outside of Dayton. Last November, I volunteered to pass out literature at the election polls in Miamisburg. I arrived at the polls very knowledgeable about the 100 meter rule, which states you are only allowed to stand within a 100 meter radius from the entrance of the election polls. While performing a civic duty, a Caucasian election worker continuously ran outside to warn me; He said,�You are standing in an illegal space inside of the 100 meter radius. The only way you can get close to the voters is if you stand on the other side of the street�.When he approached me I was standing outside of the marker used to mark the 100 meter distance between the entrance and the parking lot. I was standing very close to a Caucasian guy who was also passing out literature. The election worker called the sheriff to detain me for standing in an illegal political boundary. This magical experience is parallel to margins in a state where race and social status are the determents of where you may or may not live; where you go to school, where you work, or where you are often detained and threatened. The main differences between the narrative and the margins in a state are the markers used to divide margins are often invisible.This panel will carefully examine the magic of the margins.

MIS, OM, & Decision Sciences 2:15 PM-3:15 PM Oral Presentation, Independent Research Miriam Hall - 119 (O’Leary) Advisor(s) - Terence J Lau, Peter G Wagner Student(s) - Mark A Abram, Kelsey L Chapic, Katherine G Dempsey, Charles B Edmundson, Scott R Endress, Martin G Ernst, Anne C Estill, Kevin E Fisher, Daniel P Mares, Jim E Omalley, Jonathan C Phipps, Michael F Witt University students increasingly realize that international experience is almost a prerequisite for securing a first-rate job after graduation, and learning about and understanding diverse cultures make us all better world citizens. How can you as a student expand your horizons while still maintaining a high level of academic professionalism? SBA international programs that include Summer Study Abroad, Semester Exchange, and ETHOS (co-sponsored by the SBA and the Department of Engineering), to name a few, provide opportunities for students to become world citizens by embracing unfamiliar and diverse cultures in rigorous educational environments that can include service activities. This presentation will inform students on becoming a more educated citizen through a study abroad and/or service experience in Europe, Asia, Central or South America, and more. Students may take business and general education classes taught by University of Dayton faculty or take a foreign language. Opportunities for service activities through ETHOS engage students in life-changing experiences while giving back to the global community. Past program participants will present their stories and discuss the unique opportunities awaiting students in all majors.
