It begins with an analysis of how John Clare’s attention to his surroundings results in detailed poetry that ultimately becomes an educative project. This paper looks at some of Clare’s nest poems, specifically his ground nest poems, looking at techniques of rhythm, vocality, and dialect language. To figure Clare as an educator, however, establishing him as a person with a specific authority, we are led to a discussion of an in-betweenness in relation to communities — the natural and human. This paper explores the sense of centeredness in belonging in combination with a simultaneous marginalization, an eddying between understandings of self and others. Finally, this analysis suggests the idea that this oscillation can itself become a form of belonging because it is derived from a thorough, detailed and attentive knowledge and understanding of the other — suggesting that to know a creature’s habits and vulnerabilities is to love it, and also keep it protected. Ultimately, perhaps this kind of belonging may lead you, the walker, the poet, the listener to better understand your sense of self and place.","PeriodicalId":243071,"journal":{"name":"Berkeley Undergraduate Journal","volume":"214 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135203585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By centering activists as a lens to investigate police practices, my research captures how police in the San Francisco Bay Area are utilizing surveillance technologies and how activists have mobilized to resist and challenge their use. I examine what the state publicly says that police should be doing with regard to technology usage, what media accounts say they are doing, what organizers reveal them to be doing in practice, and how organizers are responding. Through my empirical analysis, police and state rhetoric of “public safety” clashes with activist narratives of police abuse of power in an increasingly harmful and controlling surveillance state. Surveillance technologies are portrayed as “essential” for stopping crime when in reality, this framing is part of a utopian techno-solutionist orientation that obscures ongoing injustices exacerbated by dragnet surveillance, racial targeting, and public-private partnerships. There is a clear mismatch between state claims and practices. In response, activists are mobilizing through policy and legal channels to hold the police accountable, fight surveillance, and break down police power.","PeriodicalId":243071,"journal":{"name":"Berkeley Undergraduate Journal","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135154433","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Parent Influences on the Dietary Habits of Young Adults","authors":"Liesl Bogaard","doi":"10.5070/b337162077","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5070/b337162077","url":null,"abstract":"To better understand the processes through which eating habits during childhood are carried over into adulthood, I asked the question: under what circumstances and through which patterns do the feeding behaviors of parents become replicated and emerge as habitual in their children during young adulthood? I aim to investigate how parenting style and parent behaviors surrounding food and diet influence children’s dietary habits in the long-term. Previous research indicates that income is a major factor determining parents’ feeding behavior, so I set out to combine income level and parent feeding style in one study. I hypothesized that young adults who recalled their parents engaging in behaviors associated with the authoritative parenting style would be most likely to replicate those eating behaviors as habit from childhood into young adulthood. To better understand the process through which these variables ultimately cultivated the dietary behaviors of the young adults I interviewed, I selected three dietary habits—presence of breakfast, moderation of added sugar intake, sufficient vegetable consumption—that have been associated with positive health outcomes. II observed several distinct patterns: (i) young adults who continue to eat breakfast had previously experienced a high level of engagement from their parents surrounding the meal during childhood; (ii) young adults whose parents engaged with their children’s added sugar intake were more likely to carry similar habits and attitudes related to sugar into young adulthood; (iii) many young adults experienced external factors which also initiated a significant transition towards healthier eating habits independent of their parents’ influence.","PeriodicalId":243071,"journal":{"name":"Berkeley Undergraduate Journal","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135155474","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Clinical trials have shown psychedelic drugs to be exceptionally effective in treating psychiatric illnesses such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and depression, while other research suggests they may be effective in treating a range of other indications in the future. Outside of the lab, study of illicit psychedelics and college students has shown that use of these drugs does not correlate with higher rates of mental health problems. However, studies like these fail to understand the scope of students’ experiences and may ignore potentially rich perspectives uncovered by qualitative methodologies. Thus, I interviewed 10 students currently enrolled at UC Berkeley in order to understand their psychedelic drug experiences. I found that UC Berkeley students have a wide variety of rich experiences with these drugs, including: 1. empathogenic effects of “classic” psychedelics directed towards peers, 2. connectedness with nature, 3. healing from family trauma, 4. increasing authenticity, 5. continued use defined as a self-directed “journey,” and 6. improving students’ capacity for presence. Adverse reactions brought up by some interviewees included panic attacks, existential distress, and suicidal ideation. Overall, I found that naturalistic use of psychedelics by UC Berkeley students may occasion positive experiences worthy of future research.","PeriodicalId":243071,"journal":{"name":"Berkeley Undergraduate Journal","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134998037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
