In recent years there have been numerous widely publicized cases of bias policing, and the negative consequences are available for public consumption. This project examines left-leaning counties in the Bay Area to see if a similar bias and pattern of policing is prevalent. Data will be collected by interviewing experts to gain the perspective of police officers to learn the measures they are taking to prevent bias from occurring. This data will potentially reveal where the flaws in the system are and possible solutions for addressing police bias.

The American prison system currently has work-based programs to assist prisoners in reform and reintegrating into society. However, once released, the formerly incarcerated lack connections to employment opportunities to aid their societal survival. Currently, there is a need for research into work-based programs outside of prison which may help connect the formerly incarcerated to employment opportunities. This research project aims to discover characteristics of post-incarceration work-based programs that help the formerly incarcerated access job opportunities in which lower recidivism rates are tangible, and they acknowledge their essential contributions to society.

Despite the uphill climb of female representation in law enforcement, women only make up 13.3 percent of the force. Law enforcement is vital as it collectively deals with people of all races, genders, and ages. Its staff should reflect the demographic it serves to work towards unbiased law enforcement. Unfortunately, discrimination and barriers for women in law enforcement remain prevalent. Studies show that women often feel discriminated against in the law enforcement field. This problem has negatively impacted many women who are or want to be a part of U.S. law enforcement because they are often underestimated or affected by the barriers placed before them because of their gender identities. This research project will provide evidence of women's discrimination and why.

There is a problem in the counseling many athletes receive in increasing athletic performance. Over the years, many athletes have been constantly taught that training the body and honing their skills is the best and only way to get better. However, many athletes find themselves gaining minimal improvement despite training hard physically. The mental side of sports has barely been researched over the last couple of years, resulting in many athletes needing to improve their capabilities quickly. With a high demand for mental focus and control, golf is one of the world's most challenging, if not the hardest, sports (Leach & Sheard, 2001). Based on this view, it is reasonable to infer that if mental training does not show significant golf results, it will probably not benefit athletes in other sports. Therefore, this research project will investigate how mental training affects professional golfers in the number of strokes per round compared to those without training. As the 2022-23 PGA tour season just started, collecting data from January to February is ideal as it provides adequate time for the athletes to improve and shoot more scores to analyze.

Qatar hosted the 2022 Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) World Cup across various billion-dollar stadiums, which only exist because of the labor of migrant workers. These stadiums did not exist when FIFA appointed Qatar to host the world cup, leaving fans wondering how a nation without the necessary infrastructure to host a World Cup won the vote over a nation like the United States. According to an investigation from the United States Department of Justice, the well-documented fiscal corruption was influential in the allocation of World Cups. The investigation resulted in many officials' arrests, which was a temporary solution as it failed to acknowledge the issue for decades. FIFA officials continue to take financial bribes to determine the distribution of media rights and hosting of the world cup. Due to the considerable monetary incentives for corruption to prevail in international soccer, there is no identifiable resolution. This research project investigates the possibility of a players union within International Soccer to eradicate corruption within the organization.

The Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities are the least likely to access mental health resources compared to any other race. People part of the AAPI community made up only 18.3% of those who accessed the mental health resources readily available (Hu, 2019). Many factors play a role in why people find the need to access mental health resources, and one of these factors is the effects of the Model Minority Myth in the Asian community. The Model Minority Myth is a stereotype that classifies all Asians as problem-free and hardworking, so they are the “Model Minority.” There are few resources to aid with the aftermath of the myth, as discovered in a research project conducted last year by Eunchae Hong. This research project aims to answer the following question: How can we create adequate online mental health resources for young Asian Americans struggling with their mental health due to the Model Minority Myth?

High schoolers often graduate without gaining a basic knowledge of nutrition and cooking. The Dormroom Diner project aims to create a workbook available to all students leaving high school. The workbook outlines basic kitchen skills and safety, nutrition, and meal planning, as well as a few simple budget-friendly recipes that accommodate multiple dietary restrictions. Along with the workbook, demonstrations of the skills will be accessible to help guide new cooks through the materials. The aim is to create a knowledge base of helpful tips and tricks for college cooking with minimal appliances and ingredients.

Sexual assault increases the risk of developing mental health issues such as PTSD, depression, eating disorders, and more. According to the medical journal the Lancet, four to five months after being sexually assaulted, 79% of adolescents had a psychiatric disorder, and 43% had a depressive disorder (Khadr et al.). High school students suffer from various mental health issues due to stress and academic pressure. The repercussions of sexual assault, violence, harassment, or discrimination can further complicate or exacerbate these issues, increasing the need for mental health support. Many survivors of Title IX violations choose not to report their experiences because they are intimidated by the daunting reporting process or the possibility of being re-traumatized, which prevents them from receiving critical support. Support for Survivors aims to improve the mental health of survivors of Title IX violations or other instances of sexual misconduct by increasing awareness about existing mental health resources, establishing other forms of support, and making reporting more accessible to students.

There is a shortage of veterinarians in the United States, resulting in many pet owners needing help to provide adequate care for their pets. In addition, many children need a basic understanding of pets and how to interact with animals. This research project aims to connect children with animals to help promote careers in veterinary medicine while providing children the opportunity to learn how to interact safely with animals. Another goal of this project is to give students the option to talk to a veterinarian to learn more about the veterinary profession.

Mental health crises have increased in youth. Accessing mental health care is an expensive endeavor that is not affordable for all families, causing many children to rely on their school's free resources. However, in many cases, students are unaware of these resources. The way to address this issue is to publicize the school's services to increase student awareness.
