I have completed several research papers for my English classes, including a project over the organization of James Joyce&#8217;s &#8220;A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man.&#8221; And for my marketing classes, my classmates and I conducted research over topics stemming from product acceptance to consumer behavior.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why I do research:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0Research has always been fun for me &#8211; I like having a question and then hunting for the answer. It sort of makes me feel like a way less glamorous Indiana Jones (without the danger and snakes and super natural ancient artifacts). On a more practical level, having a background in research looks great on my resume (especially since I&#8217;m thinking about grad school) and is a very valuable skill to bring to any potential job.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conferences<\/strong>: ACU Undergraduate Research Festival 2013<\/p>\n<p><strong>Awards:\u00a0<\/strong>Outstanding Oral Presentation in the Arts and Humanities, ACU Undergraduate Research Festival 2013<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Research sort of makes me feel like a way less glamorous Indiana Jones (without the danger and snakes and super natural ancient artifacts).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9214,"featured_media":529,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[76751,76729],"tags":[631,76756,1157,76738,76729],"class_list":["post-525","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-feature","category-student-researcher","tag-english","tag-language-and-literature","tag-marketing","tag-spur","tag-student-researcher"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.acu.edu\/uresearch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/525","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.acu.edu\/uresearch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.acu.edu\/uresearch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.acu.edu\/uresearch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9214"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.acu.edu\/uresearch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=525"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.acu.edu\/uresearch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/525\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.acu.edu\/uresearch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/529"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.acu.edu\/uresearch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=525"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.acu.edu\/uresearch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=525"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.acu.edu\/uresearch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=525"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
