This year’s conference theme was “Building Diverse and Inclusive Communities.” Competing against Ph.D. candidates and university faculty from throughout the U.S., Fried presented “The Clash of Disability and Extracurricular Collegiate Student Life.”
Guyon Publishes with International Mediation Institute
CADR master’s student Arnaud Guyon of Fruitland, MD, recently published his first article, “What to Wear? Mediator Attire in International Contexts,” on the website of the International Mediation Institute.
Stemming from a paper written for a CADR class taught by Dr. Brian Polkinghorn, the article is the result of Guyon’s research on the importance of apparel in projecting neutrality, credibility and other qualities in international and intercultural mediation. It is available at https://www.imimediation.org/2020/01/27/what-to-wear-mediator-attire-in-international-contexts/.
Guyon also is a graduate assistant in SU’s Office of Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity.
