Why do you think research is important in an undergraduate education?
I believe that research is important in any area of education. Professors are guides and mentors, not salesmen of information. To truly gain knowledge of a subject, independent thought is required. Going beyond the textbooks, and really diving into the meat of an unexplored area is a challenge, but a necessary one for progress and growth not only in the field, but for the student as well. Students shouldn’t wait until research is “required” of them in graduate school. It’s never too early to take an interest and run with it.

When and how did you find out that you could do independent research or creative work as a UMBC undergraduate?
I was actually researching on my own, floundering a bit, and bouncing ideas around with Professor Westphal. The area of neuro-linguistics is not something which is often studied on the undergraduate level. I think he saw that I wanted to do more than what was required in the classroom, and eventually after many discussions, we started to see that there were patterns and evidence that could be explored. At that point, he informed me that there were opportunities for undergraduates to do research and be supported by UMBC.

How did you know this was the project you wanted to do?
I’ve had a dual love-affair with linguistics and the human sciences for as long as I can remember. The problem is that in many ways they seem to be mutually exclusive, at least in regards to how they are approached. I never really believed this should be the case, and I felt that they could be very valuable and complementary to one another. To take an abstract idea, something like the Critical Period of Language Acquisition (which is anecdotally understood) and explain it in terms of brain development and function, that was a very exciting topic to me. The beauty really presents itself when a linguist can look at this and understand that there are concrete mechanisms in place within the human body that can be measured, and when a neurologist can look at this and see that there are still vast wonderments in the creativity of language.

What has been the most challenging aspect of this project?
Time is always a factor; I have so little of it. In that regard I’ve felt challenged because there are many things which I would like to work on, or ideas that I’d like to put down on paper, but because of the obligations of life, I am often unable. Thankfully, I have had enormous amount of support from my entire family as well as my coworkers. That kind of support has helped me in ways I cannot articulate. Another aspect which is a meaningful challenge is the risk of being wrong, the challenge of scrapping ideas and putting one’s ego aside for the sake of quality research.

What is your advice to other students about getting involved in research?
Take the initiative and responsibility for your education. If you have an area of interest that doesn’t fit neatly into your regular curriculum then get involved in research. If you aren’t sure where to begin with research then speak candidly with your professors and assess your strengths and weaknesses. This isn’t about instant gratification, but ultimately the experience is a huge reward.

How did UMBC help you with your research?

The Travel Funding was an integral part of this experience, without it, I’m not sure if I would have been able to participate in the SOCHIL conference. I feel that between the ongoing support from my mentor Dr. German Westphal with the MLLI department, and the Travel Grant Committee, UMBC as a whole has helped me reach goals that I initially thought were perhaps a bit lofty. My opinion has changed dramatically, and now I am aiming even higher than ever, I am inspired to continue and expand on my studies, and I have more confidence in my own abilities. The hard work completed and the memories of the fantastic trip are so rewarding, but are nevertheless overshadowed by the way this has helped shape my goals for the future. I am eternally grateful to Dr. Westphal, The Travel Grant Committee, and my alma mater UMBC.

How did you find out that you could do research in your field as an undergraduate?
Research is encouraged within the Humanities Scholars program. We were given the tools and understanding to seek the answers to our research questions by actively engaging professors and scholarly sources. When I found that the professors were just as excited to enable us to do our own research, it became a matter of finding which professors had the same interests that the questions required.

How did you decide on your research project?
My primary research concerns have dealt with reexamining various topics in terms of sex and sexuality. The piece published in the UMBC Review was a comparison of primary sources to the admission records and latent goals of the mental institution system. My sources were from nineteenth century America and detailed the expected roles of women at the time. This research was meant to examine the ways the asylums were used to socialize women who stepped out of their prescribed roles, pushing them back to the conventional traits of passive femininity

Who did you seek out as a faculty mentor? How did you know that would be the right person? Was he/she easy to approach?
Dr. Phillip Seng was one of the professors who co-taught my Humanities seminar my freshman year. As my advisor he encouraged me to submit my paper.

How long did you work on your project? Did you get academic credit for the work?
The paper began as a final research paper for my Humanities seminar and underwent a graduated process of outlining the topic, composing a thesis, collecting sources and solidifying the argument. After the class was over, my mentor encouraged me to polish the piece and submit it to the UMBC Review. 

What did you know about how to do this research when you started? How did you learn?
I knew the general pattern of research, but synthesizing the primary and secondary sources in a meaningful way was definitely a new experience. The epistemology of the research project allowed for a better understanding of how the researcher himself is a part of the knowledge he acquires and produces. 
What was the most interesting or unexpected thing that happened in your research?
When the research for the asylum project finally had pieces of evidence that supported my thesis, there was also an interesting consolidation of my academic majors (psychology/sociology/gender studies) in the piece I had produced. 

What difficulties did you encounter?
The issue was organizing the research in a meaningful way to support both the claims I had presented and purposely use the knowledge I had collected. Mapping out my goals in the research helped resolve the confusion of excess information.

What else were involved in on campus at the time? Did you have time for anything other than course work and research?
As I continued my research I was also working on-campus. While the research process took a considerable amount of time, it did not heavily dominate my free time. 

How did you find out that you could submit your research to the UMBC Review?
Dr. Seng encouraged me to submit the piece to the UMBC Review after the seminar finished. A majority of professors have encouraged students to continue their research and utilize the pieces they write as foundations for further research. 

Was it hard to prepare your manuscript for initial submission? What about revisions and working with the Review editors to get your article ready for publication?
The primary preparations required the proper formatting of the paper for style guidelines. I was asked to examine my topic in new perspectives for my revisions; for instance, although the paper relied heavily on the construction of femininity, I was asked to put a short piece on the state of manhood in nineteen century America as well.

Are you doing further work that expands on your original research or on the research skills you developed on that project?
I’ve been working in the gender studies department on other topics involving sex and sexuality. Under the advisement of Dr. Jodi Kelber-Kaye, I’ve looked at the process of emasculinization in the popular music of Ke$ha and Katy Perry as a form of empowerment and the consequential negative side-effects. This paper used content analysis that involved the combination of lyrical themes and research on manhood, as well as a situational analysis comparing current female music to the Riot Grrrl Movement.

What advice do you have for other undergraduate about the research opportunities at UMBC?
I would definitely advise students to work with what they have: use final papers and personal endeavors as a jumping board to ask bigger questions and pursue research. Professors are often happy to hear the ideas of students and will be willing to provide some advising on where they can take their research. .
