Thurston: Over the past 3 decades, a major shift has occurred around the world. Now, national borders to trade, investments, and production are diminishing as we experience major advances in transportation and telecommunication technology. Many important business functions such as, accounting, customer support, web design, computer programming, and manufacturing, are being outsourced internationally. My research will explore the impact of offshore outsourcing on the U.S. economy. Additionally, I seek to find out whether long-term outsourcing practices are beneficial or detrimental to an economy by comparing the economies of countries, which outsource heavily to those that rarely outsource.

Despite the rapid growth and improvements in EMS agencies nationwide since the late 1960s, rural systems have failed to grow and incorporate new methods and means of providing EMS care. Providing a means to expand the abilities of rural EMS is paramount to providing better and more compete EMS and medical care in rural area. Markon: Abstract: The planned Northern Lights Express rail line between Duluth and Minneapolis is gaining speed, but without more funding, it may be stopped in its tracks. This letter to Rep. Rick Nolan is a petition that more attention be paid to this growing form of mass transit. Mullin: Abstract: Through the simple implementation of school lunch programs in Sudan, school attendance rates can be dramatically increased, particularly amongst girls, and general family nutrition levels can be improved. Shimoji: Abstract: This memo proposes a new process for decision-making for U.S. military bases in Japan, one that includes the participation of local communities like the Okinawa prefecture in base siting decisions. Cron: Abstract: In the last decade, drones have become a critical device in the war against terrorist and militant organizations internationally. Although they are well-known for the advantages they offer, there are moral and human right implications they pose as well that are often overlooked. The predicament with drones is that they are used to protect human rights, but at the same time their use jeopardizes human rights. This unmanned aerial warfare does more harm than good as it kills more faultless civilians than corrupt leaders who threaten the U.S. My proposal will consist of a solution that offers compensation for drone victims including the federal government accepting responsibility of harming the innocent. Kelso: Abstract: In its 231 years as a nation, the United States has welcomed over 50 million immigrants, though not always with open arms. Anti-immigrant sentiment has plagued the U.S. with every wave of newcomers but, most recently, with the nearly 11 million undocumented immigrants living in this country today. In my public policy memo, I will be addressing the problem of our broken immigration system, particularly in the deplorable situation faced by undocumented immigrants and their children currently living in the shadows of American society. My solution involves immediate permanent residency and a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants with no criminal record. Bukowski: Abstract: Mental illness has been increasingly on the rise since the 1960's, but little health care has been provided in order to care for the inmates. Even with advancements in medical care, care for the mentally ill, especially in prisons, has decreased from six mental health hospitals, some holding 2,000 patients at their height, to only two of them still open and just holding under twenty beds. This decrease is primarily due to spending cuts, which shut down most of the mental health hospitals, and the belief that many mentally ill inmates can receive care in regular prison facilities. However, this is not that case. Many times, inmates with mental illness often have a harder time in prison because they are not receiving the adequate care that is required to deal with mental illness. Minnesota needs to reopen many of its mental health facilities so mental illness can be handled correctly. Smith: Abstract: This policy memo will recommend that the state of Illinois adopt an education policy for prison inmates that enables them to earn bachelor’s degrees, and that promises to diminish the rate of recidivism by prisoners who have served their terms. Drolc: Abstract: The status quo of South Dakota’s procedure is dangerous. To allow juveniles to face un-severe penalties does not teach a lesson that needs to be learned at a young age. For those who are convicted of less-serious crimes my recommendation is for them to serve some sort of time and then pay the fine or community service deed that is required by the court. The court must take retribution seriously in order to be an effective criminal justice system. Young: Abstract: It is my proposal that ISD#709 of Duluth, MN require its high school graduates and GED recipients to complete a mandatory community service requirement of forty hours as part of their graduation and GED expectations.

Abstracts Gonzalez: Xinjiang is an autonomous region located in the northwestern part of the People’s Republic of China. China for the most part classifies itself as an officially-atheist communist country nevertheless the Xinjiang region which in fact is part of China classifies itself as predominately Muslim. China also classifies itself as having one central government in Beijing and for many years the central government has tremendously distrusted the mostly Sunni Muslim Uighurs living in Xinjiang. The mistrust has come from recent treads in Muslim terrorism attacks in the U.S and the Middle East. It has been known that the Uighurs and other Central Asians of the Islam faith have practiced a fairly tranquil style of Islam. Nevertheless the great pressure that the Chinese government has placed on this minority has caused the radicalization of some young Uighurs causing separatism attempts to take place in the region. These attempts have the country of China worried as well as other nations. The presentation’s goal is to educate attendees of who the Uighur’s of China are and the reasons for their separatism attempts. The presentation will also explore the self of identity the Uighurs have developed throughout the years and the types of separatism attempts they have undergone. Jones: I will be looking at some aspects of Japanese history that has led to the modern Japanese culture and some of its issues in today’s day and age. I will look at multiple aspects of Japanese culture, including self-reliance, national pride, and group mentality, and how its place in Japanese history has led to social problems, such as racism, population issues, and other social pressures. While pointing out these connections, I hope to give possible solutions to certain issues the plague Japan today. Peterson: Looking into the Asian culture and the Asian art community specifically, I will be examining and analyzing the Guan-Yin bodhisattva, famous as being the deity of mercy throughout China, Japan, and India. I will be looking into the physical appearance as well as the gender transformation through time and cultures. Through this analysis, I hope to identify the reasons behind this artifact lasting through so many cultures and generations, never fading in importance. **Please email a copy of this abstract to Dr. Richard Bohr, chair of the Asian Studies Department. Thank you. Peterson: Utilizing Museums to Safeguard China’s Intangible Cultural Heritage: Bridging the Gap between Local Community Heritages, State Party Safeguarding Methods, and International Efforts Safeguarding intangible cultural heritage is a relatively new idea in the field of heritage works. Global awareness of the definition and importance of intangible heritage rapidly increased after the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Conference was held in 2003. This is especially so in China. While the concept of intangible cultural heritage has been more firmly established, the actual process and methods of safeguarding it are still a large topic of international debate. I will examine the issues and debates of safeguarding methods and analyze what they mean for China’s intangible cultural heritage. I will also analyze China’s current safeguarding practices and present a proposal for integrating Chinese museums into those practices. My hope is to increase the awareness of the importance of China’s intangible cultural heritage and offer insights into the ongoing issues and debates of the safeguarding process. Xiong: Japan is a country that has achieved many things in its history, but now Japan is facing several crises that can hurt Japan in the long run if not dealt with. Japan’s business is trying to maintain a strong economy in a globalizing world, protect its national culture, and depopulation, and now with the damage from March 11 in 2011. One solution is attracting more immigrants to help work and live in Japan will help rebuild Japan, but is this the best option for Japan? Looking at how Japan handles immigrants who come for work and reside in Japan, and how the public feels about immigrants, and Japan’s other options, Japan will not be able to handle the increase in immigrants as a solution, but as something to improve on in the relations between native Japanese and immigrants.
