Walkability and Climate Change
How many times have you heard about climate change? The polar bears are dying, glaciers melting blah blah blah. But what does this actually mean? How can I help? Well you are in luck, this Instagram goes through some effects of climate change and links it to the topic of city walkability. Walkability is the level of access that walkers and bikers have to different amenities of a city. By increasing walkability, we can help reduce emissions and bring tons of other benefits to our daily lives. And the stakes of climate change could not be higher!

Rage-Baiting and Misogyny Informational
Inflammatory content online has always been common. However, ‘trolling’ has evolved into a more insidious and malicious tactic for gaining attention on the internet. The concept of ‘rage-baiting’ has been increasingly discussed, defined as a form of online content meant to induce outrage and interactions with the offending post. A quick and popular way to kick off angry arguments in comments sections is by the use of misogynistic or woman-hating language.

Instead, they should know what rage-baiting and misogyny…

Convenience is Accessibility: Integrating Accessibility into Customer Experiences
The study of consumer behavior isn’t just about getting people to spend as much as possible. At least it shouldn’t be. At its core, the purpose of understanding who we are as consumers– our habits, preferences, and needs— is to make our lives easier when we interact with businesses. As such, I believe that the consumer experience can and should be leveraged in pursuit of accessibility. Below is my proposal in support of this very idea. In it, I pitch an idea for a new customer experience feature that retail businesses can implement to increase accessibility for their customers and make life easier, if even just a little bit. -Pat…

How Housing Inequality Has Shaped St. Louis
The housing system in America has evolved on the back of segregationist policies. These varied policies have significantly influenced the development of the contemporary housing landscape. Notably, St. Louis became a destination for many African Americans seeking refuge from the Jim Crow South following the abolition of slavery. As a result, St. Louis exemplifies a city profoundly impacted by these divisive policies. For more in-depth information on this topic, consider exploring the website STLHousingInequality, developed by a student in this course, which offers extensive insights into this subject.
