Thesis advisor: Hans de Wit / Thesis advisor: Laura Rumbley / This study will identify to what extent the different campuses that compose the Universidad of Guadalajara (UdeG) have taken steps to internationalize uniquely and “independently,” beyond the frameworks for internationalization offered exclusively via central administration, and to identify some of the specific challenges and opportunities inherent in the internationalization processes for a multi-campus system. / Thesis (MA) — Boston College, 2018. / Submitted to: Boston College.

Thesis advisor: Hans de Wit / Thesis advisor: Rebecca C. Schendel / CUValles has no intentional, integrated institutional pathway to comprehensive internationalization. Consequently, the primary purpose of this transformative inquiry is to analyze how comprehensive internationalization might be achieved at CUValles: a constituent of a decentralized, multi-campus University Network. Interviews with 12 key informants and official document analysis were the means of data collection. Findings indicate the disarticulated presence of all comprehensive internationalization as characterized by ACE, (2017). Comprehensive internationalization might be achieved at CUValles through a context savvy application of de Wit’s Internationalization Cycle (2002), integrated from an “Inter-Campus Research Institute for International Higher Education”. / Thesis (MA) — Boston College, 2020. / Submitted to: Boston College.

This rate have been troubling users’ daily commutings and could be lessened if active modes of transportation, walking and cycling, were adopted. The aim of this research was the comprehension of behaviour change capacity of an academic comunity to adopt the bicycle as a mode of transportation for commuting to São Carlos’ Federal University, São Carlos, Brasil. In this work, a survey was conducted, via internet and one-on-one interviewing, with 473 participants. The survey was adapted from Smith et al. (2004) and based on Prochaska and DiClemente (1982, 1983) Transtheoretical Model of Behaviour Change, MTMC. The participants were professors, technical-administrative employees, graduate and post-graduate students. The sample’s profile was of a graduate and post-graduate student, aging 18 to 35 years-old, residing up to 5 km away from the campus and using motor vehicles to commute. MTMC’s results showed the bicycle’s major motivator and barrier to be the schedule freedom and the lack of cycling infrastructure, respectively. / Atualmente, os campi universitários estão sendo atingidos pelos reflexos negativos da alta taxa de motorização, fator que tem causado problemas nos deslocamentos dos usuários e que poderiam ser amenizados caso houvesse uma maior adoção dos modais de transporte movidos a propulsão humana, modo a pé e por bicicleta. Partindo desse pressuposto, esta pesquisa visou compreender a capacidade de mudança comportamental a respeito da potencialidade da comunidade acadêmica em adotar a bicicleta como modal de transporte para ir e vir da Universidade Federal de São Carlos, São Carlos, Brasil. Para o desenvolvimento desse trabalho foram aplicados, por meio da internet e presencialmente, 473 questionários. O questionário aplicado foi adaptado de Smith (2004) e baseado no Modelo Transteórico de Mudança Comportamental de Prochaska e DiClemente (1982, 1983). Participaram desta pesquisa professores, alunos de graduação e pós-graduação, e técnicos-administrativos. Na amostra, identificou-se que a maioria dos respondentes tinham de 18 a 35 anos, alunos de graduação e pós-graduação, residentes de distâncias menores que 5 km da universidade, mas que, no entanto, utilizavam o automóvel e o ônibus para acessá-la. Os resultados da pesquisa apontaram que, na comunidade acadêmica estudada, existia demanda de usuários da bicicleta em potencial, majoritariamente, homens, alunos de graduação, de 18 a 35 anos, residentes das regiões próximas à universidade que apontaram como principal motivador a independência no horário que a bicicleta oferecia e como uma principal barreira a falta de infraestrutura cicloviária.

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / By definition, homelessness refers to general understanding of people without a home or a roof over their heads. As consequences of a number of factors, homelessness has become a serious problem especially in cities throughout the United States. Homeless people are usually most visible on the streets and in settings like shelters due to the fact that their presences and activities in public spaces are considered illegal or at least “unwanted” by city officials and by members of the public. In response to this issue, activists throughout the country have worked tiresly on behalf of homeless people to demand policy changes, an effort that resulted in the passage of the homeless bill of rights in three states, namely Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Illinois. As I discovered through my fieldwork, in Indiana, the homeless, themselves, are currently lobbying for passage of a similar measure. Locating my fieldwork on homelessness in Indianapolis in two sites, the Indianapolis Marion County Public Library (the Central Library) and the IUPUI Library, I examine the use of library buildings as alternative temporary shelters and spaces where the homeless can organize for political change. As an Indonesian ethnographer, I utilized an ethnographic approach, which helped me to reveal “Western values” and “American culture” as they play out in the context of homelessness. In this thesis, I show that there is a multi-sited configuration made up of issues, agents, institutions, and policy processes that converge in the context of the use of library buildings by the homeless. Finally, I conclude that public libraries and university libraries as well can play a more important role beyond their original functions by undertaking tangible actions, efforts, engagements, and interventions to act as allies to the homeless, who are among their most steadfast constituencies. By utilizing public university library facilities, the homeless are also finding their voices to call for justice, for better treatment, and for policies that can help ameliorate the hardship and disadvantages of homelessness.
