School of Humanities and Behavioral Sciences Newsletter

It is always a delight to reflect on the many successes stemming from the hard work of dedicated students, faculty, and staff. Once again, the desire to learn and explore filled our classrooms, labs, and studios with discovery and innovation, connection, and engagement. As we near the end of the academic year, you will see that 2022-2023 delivered further testament to the transformative power of education. In these pages, we will shine some light on a few highlights that demonstrate how the fuel of passionate curiosity continues to power the School of Humanities and Behavioral Sciences toward remarkable outcomes.

As you read, please know that behind every success, there is a strong mentor-student relationship fostering personal growth and defining academic and professional achievement. While offering guidance, advice, and support throughout the college experience, our faculty mentors go beyond sharing their knowledge and expertise and make meaningful impacts on many lives each year. Together, our teaching and learning collaborative teams contribute to the growth and development of humanities and behavioral science fields, while both faculty and students are honing their life skills.

Winston-Salem native Maya Angelou advised us that, “Education is not just about going to school and getting a degree. It’s about widening your knowledge and absorbing the truth about life.” This year, we have seen countless examples of teachers and students working together to create positive change in our communities and beyond. Even in the face of tragic loss, our resilient academic community has risen to every occasion and shown remarkable dedication and adaptability. Thank you for helping us share some of the evidence of such strength and success and letting us celebrate this academic year and all that has been achieved. May we continue to learn, grow, and positively impact the world around us.

Embracing the Challenge to Grow

HPU STUDENTS LEAD FIRST Mock Trial Scrimmage ON CAMPUS TO GAIN A COMPETITIVE EDGE

2022-23

Front Row: Liv Gardner, Aly Patterson, Courtney Young, Chakyia Lee, Benjamin Atkinson, Taylor Hawkins, Ashley Damm, and Jessica Ashe Back Row: Jacob Dillman, Wes Singer, Matt Gray, Brady Rotello, and Nate Ledford

Mock Trial Team

On the morning of January 21st, Phillips Hall had a palpable energy.

Nervous pacing, paper shuffling, and low voices filled the lobby as Mock Trial team members rehearsed their case material one last time. Teams from Wake Forest University and UNC-Charlotte traveled to HPU’s campus to participate in the event. In just a few moments, they would disperse and court would be in session.

At HPU, Mock Trial is an unique class designed to prepare students for a career in law. As part of the course offerings for the Legal Studies minor and Pre-Law Track, Mock Trial is more than just a class - it’s a program that teaches critical thinking and prepares students for the rigors of law school.

“In Mock Trial, students learn the amount of time, effort, and attention to detail courtroom work requires,” says Dr. Scott Ingram, associate professor of criminal justice and Pre-Law advisor. Dr. Ingram is also the faculty lead for HPU’s Mock Trial teams.

Pivotal Opportunity

HPU’s Mock Trial program was pivotal in attracting Jacob Dillman and Liv Gardner to the University. Having competed on their respective high school Mock Trial teams, they both wanted to continue building real life skills while in college.

Dillman, a junior majoring in Criminal Justice and minoring in Legal Studies and Social Innovation, credits the program

with helping him to develop a myriad of skills. “I’ve gained a lot of skills by participating in Mock Trial,” he says. “Skills like public speaking, leadership, delegation, and team building. It’s nice to be supported by a group of peers who share similar interests and future goals.”

Dillman’s passion for the program is echoed by Gardner, who is also a junior. As a Pre-Law student, Gardner is majoring in Spanish and Journalism while minoring in Legal Studies. “I have developed and honed the ability to think on my feet and improvise,” she says. “Those skills expand across fields and help me in interviews, classrooms, and the courtroom.”

Now, Dillman and Gardner lead and mentor other students through the program as co-captains for HPU’s A Team.

Preparing for Regionals

Mock Trial is almost a year long commitment. Beginning in August, students receive case material and begin preparing for February’s Regional Tournament. This year, students wanted to take the program one step further and host HPU’s first Mock Trial Scrimmage.

According to Gardner, hosting a scrimmage on campus was a natural next step. “It gave a whole new perspective to the competition. We were able to see our progress as well as the areas that we needed to improve on before Regionals.”

On Tournament weekend, Feb. 18-19, eighteen teams from the east coast traveled to UNC Chapel Hill to compete in the 2023 American Mock Trial Association’s Regional Tournament.

HPU’s teams competed against Duke University, George Washington University, NC State, and UNC, Chapel Hill

among others for a chance to advance to the next round of competition in Greenville, SC. Dillman and Gardner’s A Team was dealt one of the hardest schedules in the competition and in the final round lost to Duke University, barely missing qualifying for the next round.

Despite the disappointment of not advancing, Gardner and Dillman are already looking towards next year. As Dillman reflects, “What brings me back year after year is my teammates. I enjoy the relationships that I have been able to make throughout the program. This experience has shaped me to become a better student and person.”

Mock Trial is open to all students with sophomore standing. To learn more, reach out to Dr. Scott Ingram at ringram@highpoint.edu.

Turning Passion Into Purpose

Mac Mollins, a sophomore majoring in History and Political Science, is sharing his passion with the world.

Being an avid podcast listener, Mollins set out to tell fascinating stories through his own podcast. Now, he’s the host and producer of HPU’s first history podcast, Dialogues with the Past

Each episode is dedicated to investigating historical topics with experts in the field. His inspiration? HPU’s own history professors.

Drs. Shannon Lalor, Amanda Allen, and Paul Ringel were integral in the content creation of the first three episodes. Together with Mollins, they’ve produced stories on colonial Cuba, the Protestant

Reformation, and the famous show Schoolhouse Rock!

“I find it fascinating to talk to our professors about their area of expertise,” Mollins says. “The podcast is a means to share their stories and the stories of the past with a broader audience.”

Indeed, the podcast is attracting a broader audience. With four episodes released, Dialogues with the Past has over 300 listeners and 50 followers from all over the world. Mollins continues to plan new content and hopes it will especially reach prospective students interested in history at HPU.

Challenging Students to ACHIEVE the Extraordinary

Opportunities abound for students to publish and present their creative works.

Maya Davis, a senior majoring in English and minoring in Criminal Justice, can testify to the value of a liberal arts degree. “I enjoy looking at major events and how they shift over time. I used my English courses to learn analytical writing so that I could understand past events and conduct research on current events.”

When Dr. Matthew Carlson, associate professor of English, encouraged her to major in English, Maya said it was a natural fit. Under Dr. Carlson’s guidance, Davis has used her analytical writing skills to present at High-PURCS, conduct research through HPU’s Summer Research Institute (SuRI), and present at the 2023 annual conference of Sigma Tau Delta, a prestigious international honor society for English students. Davis is thankful for all the opportunities provided to English majors and looks forward to applying her skills in her future career.

Literary Awards and Conferences

On February 25th, five students under the direction of Dr. Charmaine Cadeau, associate

professor of English, attended the 2023 N.C. College Media Association Conference to represent Apogee, HPU’s award-winning literary magazine. Thanks to senior Ashley Pratt, a graphic design major, Apogee earned second place for its front cover photo and another second place for a two-page spread, titled Machine Learning, which featured writing from Jacob Shores and artwork from Max Roberts, both HPU students.

On March 29 - April 1, English majors Maya Davis, McKinley Johnson, and Max Kresock presented at the 2023 Sigma Tau Delta annual convention in Denver. The convention attracts over 900 students, faculty, and respected authors from all over the world. Davis, Johnson, and Kresock worked closely with Dr. Carlson and Sigma Tau Delta Chapter Chair Dr. Virginia Leclercq, assistant professor of English and French, to prepare for the convention. At the awards luncheon, Johnson was given the Isabel Sparks President’s Award (second place) for best original poetry, and Kresock was given the Beth DeMeo Poetry Award (first place) for best critical work on poetry or a poet.

In Kresock’s words, “The most rewarding part of studying English is all the varied opportunities that it’s afforded me. If you can read deeply, think clearly, and write and communicate effectively, it opens so many doors.”

The Ripple Effect of Mentoring

Intergenerational mentoring leads to personal and professional growth

for everyone connected.

Life has come full-circle for Dr. Andrew Tzavaras, instructor of history at HPU. Serving now as a mentor to students pursuing historical quests, he reflects back on the mentoring he received from Dr. James Stitt, former Chair of the History Department, during his time as an undergraduate and graduate student at HPU.

“Dr. Stitt sat down with me one afternoon and encouraged me to pursue a master’s degree in history through HPU’s graduate school. Because

of the enriched opportunities offered at HPU, such as the Rothenberg Seminar, I was empowered to meet experts and prominent leaders in the field. Those experiences ultimately led me to pursue my PhD at the University of Oxford.”

In August 2019, Dr. Tzavaras returned to HPU as a fulltime instructor in the History Department. He considers it an honor and privilege to be able to continue the mentoring tradition at his alma mater.

Guided Growth

Senior Kenan Althoff is one of Dr. Tzavaras’s students. Althoff, a History and Philosophy major, worked closely with Dr.

Tzavaras to develop his senior seminar paper and apply to graduate schools.

“As a mentor, Dr. Tzavaras has shown considerable passion in helping me, as well as other students, work through our senior seminar theses, using his expertise and personal experience to make sense of the process and facilitate growth and learning. As someone who wishes to pursue further education in history, Dr. Tzavaras’s mentorship, advice, and expertise has been immensely beneficial to me, and has better prepared me for the road ahead.”

After graduating from HPU, Althoff is headed to the University of North Texas to

pursue a master’s degree in 19th Century Prussian military history. He plans to continue his academic pursuits to earn a doctorate in military history.

Producing Outcomes

Bonnie Showfety is another senior benefiting from history professors who care about her success. Drs. Joey Fink and Amanda Allen, both assistant professors of history, encouraged Showfety to join the History Club in her sophomore year. Now, she serves as President.

As president, Showfety worked to bolster the club into a thriving group of 15 - 20 members who gather for guest lectures, game nights, and mentoring. “It’s a safe place for students to come together,” she says, “not only to grow in historical awareness but to also talk about present issues that are happening in the world.”

Last summer, Showfety took her passion beyond HPU and completed an internship for the NC Transportation Museum in Spencer, NC. There, she transcribed and digitized eleven oral histories of former Southern Railway workers, which can be found on the museum’s website.

After graduation, Showfety will pursue a master’s degree in Museum Studies at UNC Greensboro. Her goal is to become a museum curator for historic sites. She attributes her success to the support and guidance she received from her mentors in the History Department.

Access to Innovators Phil M. Jones

HPU’s Persuasion Expert

Mentoring is taken to the next level through HPU’s Access to Innovators program. Regularly, global leaders and industry experts visit campus to share wisdom and successful business methods with our students.

On March 13, political science and international relations students met with HPU’s Persuasion Expert in Residence, Phil M. Jones. Jones, a motivational business speaker and international bestselling author, guided students through persuasive communication techniques in diplomacy. For ninety minutes, students pitched a variety of US and foreign relation scenarios to Jones so that he could walk them through what an effective, persuasive conversation should look like.

Joe Maronski, a senior majoring in journalism and political science and minoring in Italian Studies, really enjoyed the opportunity to connect with Jones. “It was very impactful for an In Residence member to come to our class,” Maronski says. “Being able to hear how Political Science can intersect with other disciplines like persuasion was an amazing experience.”

For Sopheea Mink and Megan Kratzer, committing to HPU was an easy decision. Being avid volleyball players, both women saw an opportunity to receive an extraordinary education while continuing their love for the sport. Off the court, Mink and Kratzer have taken advantage of the abundant opportunities available over the last four years.

As soon as Mink entered the Sociology and Anthropology Department, she found her passion. “What led me to love the major was that I found it applicable to everyday life.” She coupled the major with a minor in Environmental Studies and dove deeply into researching social issues such as the effects of pesticides on children’s health and farmworkers, which she presented at last year’s High-PURCS. Mink also devised an action plan to assess the water quality of High Point and specifically measure PFAs, a forever chemical that is found on the coast of NC. After graduation, she plans to purse an MBA to bring her passion for sustainability and social responsibility to a corporate environment.

Kratzer pursued a major in French because she loved the language. Combined with her math majors, studying French offered her creative classes where she could explore a different culture. This April, she will present her research on French Secularism at High-PURCS and in May, she will study abroad in Paris, France before attending graduate school at Syracuse University. “Studying a foreign language helped me broaden my communication skill set,” says Kratzer, “and has made a very positive impact on my college experience as a whole. I’m thankful for all the support offered by the professors.”

Academic Excellence in Research

HPU’s Psychology Department stands apart from others with ample opportunities for undergraduate research.

Ever dreamed of adding to a field of research, coauthoring a book chapter, or interning at NCIS? Our students in the Psychology Department accomplished this and more during the 22-23 academic year.

The highly interdisciplinary and multi-faceted programs offered to Psychology majors prepare them for a myriad of career paths. Our students leave HPU as competitive candidates for graduate school or the work force.

Dr. Laura Nagy, assistant professor of psychology, knows that magic happens outside of the classrooms.

“It’s when students step into the lab that they gain valuable skills which will carry beyond their undergraduate years and well into their career.”

Dr. Nagy specializes in researching borderline personality disorder and related phenomena such as self-criticism, rumination, and non-suicidal self-injury. She teaches students how research

is funded, developed, carried out, and presented.

Notable Achievements

Working alongside Dr. Nagy, Ashley Cruz, ‘22, applied for and received grant funding through Psi Chi to conduct research on the correlation of one’s anger and their pain tolerance. Cruz presented the findings at the State of NC Undergraduate Research & Creativity Symposium (SNCURCS) in December and continues to work with Dr. Nagy to write up the results for publication.

Meanwhile, Ethan Muckerheide, a sophomore majoring in psychology who also works with Dr. Nagy, was awarded the Barthalmus Research Award from SNCURCS. The award will fund a project examining whether different types of

rumination impact a person’s willingness to endure pain longer.

The award is a continuation of Muckerheide’s teamwork with Dr. Nagy. Last summer, he and Kelly Polk, a sophomore majoring in psychology, also worked with Dr. Nagy as part of the Summer Research Institute (SuRI). Together, they coauthored a book chapter titled “Self-Criticism in Anger, Aggression, and Violence” in the Handbook of Anger, Aggression, and Violence, which won Best Oral Presentation at this year’s High-PURCS conference.

Opportunity Abounds

In April, Dr. Nagy, along with Dr. Sarah Nielsen, associate professor of psychology, led seniors Alexis Cobb, Alyssa Dowdy, April Gessouroun, and Jyll Herman to the Southeastern Psychological Association (SEPA) Conference in New Orleans to present research.

While at the conference, Gessouroun, a psychology and criminal justice major, won a regional research award for her poster on whether poor academic attitudes determine

a relationship between psychopathy and GPA.

For Jyll Herman, a psychology and English major with a minor in Creative Writing, presenting her findings in an academic setting was most rewarding. She enjoyed the process of collecting data and analyzing the results with Dr. Jana Spain, professor or psychology, more than she initially anticipated.

After graduation, Herman will work as a Registered Behavioral Technician with autistic children before pursuing a doctoral degree in clinical psychology.

Engaging Internships

Senior Natalee Huber, a psychology major with minors in criminal justice and Chinese, spent most of 2022 interning at the Naval Criminal Investigative Service in Charleston, SC.

She’s always been interested in Forensic Psychology and knew HPU’s Psychology Department would be the perfect place to develop the skills needed for her career goals. Her adviser, Dr. Deborah Danzis, associate professor of psychology, helped her practice for the interview process.

As an intern for NCIS, Huber gained a broad understanding of the federal government and was assigned to cases where she collected evidence, wrote case reports, and analyzed crime scenes. She credits the ability to juggle academic and career demands to the amazing support of her professors. After graduation, she plans to attend Marymount University’s Master of Arts in Forensic and Legal Psychology to pursue a career in forensic legal psychology.

“It’s when students step into the lab that they gain valuable skills which will carry beyond their undergraduate years and well into their career.”

Prestigious Boren Scholarship Awarded to HBS Double Major

HBS double-major Daniel Desjarlais is ready for an adventure. As a Boren Scholar, Desjarlais will study Turkish language and culture at the University of Wisconsin-Madison this summer and at Azerbaijan University in Baku, Azerbaijan this fall through the Boren’s Turkish Language Flagship Initiative.

“I am thankful to have had the opportunity to work with Dr. Setzler, Dr. Tzavaras, and Dr. Cotton throughout the application process,” Desjarlais said. “My positive experiences working with Dr. Cotton through the Office of Fellowships and Awards were critical in identifying the award that best aligned with my career aspirations.”

In exchange for funding, Boren award recipients agree to employment in the federal government for at least one year. “HPU’s International Relations and Criminal Justice programs have well prepared Daniel for his Boren studies and a career in the federal government,” said Dr. Cotton. “We are so proud of his success.”
