  • John W. Adams Summer Scholars Program In Socio-Legal Studies
    Research Fellow
    John W. Adams Summer Scholars Program In Socio-Legal Studies Jun 2015 - Aug 2015
    Kenyon College
    The John W. Adams Summer Scholars Program in Socio-Legal Studies is a highly competitive undergraduate socio-legal research fellowship awarded to a small number of students at Kenyon College each year. As a John W. Adams Summer Scholar, I conducted an independent research project investigating the history of sexual assault in Knox County, by collecting data concerning court cases of sexual assaults, criminal indictments and other actions of the legal system from the past 10 years in order to have a comprehensive understanding of what occurs when a victim chooses to pursue legal action for a sexual violence crime in this region, from original indictment to the results of any trials that occur, but more specifically, why so many victims are silenced by the deep stigmatization associated with reporting assaults and the personal and public biases that complicate their processes of healing, personal empowerment and quests for legal recourse. By becoming familiar with the legal arena of Knox County and in particular, Mount Vernon, Ohio, my work investigated the cultural, socio-economic, racial and gendered influencers upon sexual abusers and their victims in a rural area. As part of this fellowship, I am also interned at New Directions, Knox County's Domestic Abuse Shelter and Rape Crisis Center in order to work towards a personal understanding of the emotional, psychological and physical effects of sexual and domestic violence/intimate partner violence, bettering my ability to create a final research project that was holistically reflective of the deeply traumatic journeys of sexual violence survivors and a project that foremost honors and uplifts survivors.
