THE GRANTS TO REDUCE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DATING VIOLENCE, SEXUAL ASSAULT, AND STALKING ON CAMPUS PROGRAM (CAMPUS PROGRAM) IS AUTHORIZED BY 34 U.S.C. 20125. THE PROGRAM PROVIDES A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY FOR INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION TO ESTABLISH MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACHES TO COMBAT DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DATING VIOLENCE, SEXUAL ASSAULT, AND STALKING ON CAMPUSES. THESE COMPREHENSIVE EFFORTS ARE DESIGNED TO ENHANCE VICTIM SERVICES (INCLUDING LEGAL SERVICES), IMPLEMENT PREVENTION AND EDUCATION PROGRAMS, AND DEVELOP AND STRENGTHEN SECURITY AND INVESTIGATION STRATEGIES TO PREVENT, PROSECUTE, AND RESPOND TO DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DATING VIOLENCE, SEXUAL ASSAULT, AND STALKING. THE CAMPUS PROGRAM SUPPORTS ACTIVITIES THAT DEVELOP CAMPUS-BASED COORDINATED RESPONSES AMONG CAMPUS VICTIM SERVICES, CAMPUS LAW ENFORCEMENT, HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS, HOUSING OFFICIALS, ADMINISTRATORS, STUDENT LEADERS, FAITH-BASED ORGANIZATIONS, STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS, AND DISCIPLINARY BOARDS, AND ENHANCE VICTIM SAFETY AND ASSISTANCE AND HOLD OFFENDERS ACCOUNTABLE. TO BE EFFECTIVE, THESE RESPONSES MUST BE LINKED TO LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES, PROSECUTORS OFFICES, COURTS, AND NONPROFIT, NONGOVERNMENTAL VICTIM ADVOCACY AND VICTIM SERVICES ORGANIZATIONS. MISSISSIPPI VALLEY STATE UNIVERSITY IS A PUBLIC, HISTORICALLY BLACK UNIVERSITY LOCATED IN ITA BENA, MS. WITH THIS CONTINUATION AWARD, MISSISSIPPI VALLEY STATE UNIVERSITY, IN COLLABORATION WITH OUR HOUSE, INC. AND THE GREENWOOD POLICE DEPARTMENT (GPD) WILL CONTINUE TO MEET THE STATUTORY AND PROGRAMMATIC REQUIREMENTS. IN ADDITION, THE PROJECT WILL: 1) DEVELOP CULTURALLY APPROPRIATE AND LINGUISTICALLY ACCESSIBLE MATERIALS THAT PROVIDE INFORMATION ON AVAILABLE PREVENTION AND INTERVENTION SERVICES ON AND OFF CAMPUS; 2) DEVELOP POPULATION SPECIFIC STRATEGIES AND SUPPORTS FOR VICTIMS TO INCLUDE A SUPPORT GROUP FOR LGBTQ+ INDIVIDUALS; 3) PROVIDE TRAININGS THAT WILL BE CULTURALLY SPECIFIC FOR AFRICAN AMERICANS AND INCLUSIVE OF INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES AND UNIQUE GENDER IDENTITIES; AND 4) ADVANCE RACIAL EQUITY THROUGH RECRUITING BLACK PEER EDUCATORS TO ASSIST WITH THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROJECT.

COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: CUE-T: HBCU LEARNING COMMUNITY-BASED INTERVENTION IN COMPUTING -THE UNIVERSITY OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, FLORIDA AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL UNIVERSITY, WINSTON-SALEM STATE UNIVERSITY, MISSISSIPPI VALLEY STATE UNIVERSITY, NORFOLK STATE UNIVERSITY, AND HAMPTON UNIVERSITY WILL COLLABORATE TO DEVELOP THE HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES LEARNING COMMUNITY-BASED INTERVENTION IN COMPUTING (HBCU LCI-CS). THIS PROJECT WILL BE DESIGNED TO PREPARE AND RETAIN STUDENT POPULATIONS UNDERREPRESENTED IN COMPUTING AND ULTIMATELY INCREASE DIVERSITY IN THE COMPUTING WORKFORCE. THIS PROJECT TEAM INTENDS TO EXPLORE THE IMPACT OF AN INTERCOLLEGIATE LEARNING COMMUNITY-BASED INTERVENTION ON THE RETENTION OF UNDERREPRESENTED MINORITY INCOMING STUDENTS IN COMPUTER-RELATED FIELDS. ALTHOUGH THIS LEARNING-BASED COMMUNITY WILL BE IMPLEMENTED AMONG THE PARTNERING HBCUS, THE ACTIVITIES OF THE PROJECT WILL BE SCALABLE TO OTHER INSTITUTIONS. THIS PROJECT INTENDS TO UNDERSTAND HOW TO TEACH COMPUTING EFFECTIVELY TO A BROAD GROUP OF STUDENTS, IN A SCALABLE MANNER, WITH AN EMPHASIS ON BROADENING THE PARTICIPATION OF GROUPS WHO ARE UNDERREPRESENTED AND UNDERSERVED BY TRADITIONAL COMPUTING COURSES AND CAREERS. THE GOAL OF HBCU LCI-CS WILL BE TO INCREASE THE RETENTION OF FIRST-YEAR STUDENTS IN COMPUTER-RELATED FIELDS BY PREPARING THEM FOR COLLEGIATE SUCCESS. HBCU LCI-CS WILL INVOLVE A THREE-FOLD APPROACH: 1) AN INTERCOLLEGIATE COLLABORATIVE BRIDGE PROGRAM 2) A SERVICE-LEARNING PROGRAM AND 3) A LECTURE SERIES. THE PROPOSED RESEARCH ACTIVITIES WILL INCLUDE (1) INVESTIGATING HOW COMMUNITY-BASED ACTIVITIES AFFECT UNDERREPRESENTED MINORITY STUDENTS' PREPAREDNESS, (2) EXPLORING HOW COMMUNITY-BASED ACTIVITIES AFFECT UNDERREPRESENTED MINORITY STUDENTS? RETENTION DURING THEIR FRESHMAN YEAR IN COLLEGE (3) EXAMINING HOW PARTICIPATION IN AN HBCU COMMUNITY AFFECTS PARTICIPANT ATTITUDE, CONFIDENCE, AND SENSE OF BELONGING, AND (4) EXPLORING IF SERVICE-LEARNING INCREASES THE MOTIVATION AND ENGAGEMENT OF STUDENTS FROM GROUPS UNDERREPRESENTED IN COMPUTING IN A COMPUTING-RELATED MAJOR. THIS PROJECT IS JOINTLY FUNDED BY IUSE:CUE AND THE HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAM (HBCU-UP). THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.

EXCELLENCE IN RESEARCH: AN INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECTS OF NICANDRA PHYSALODES ON THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF WEEDS -NOXIOUS WEEDS HAVE BEEN FOUND TO NEGATIVELY IMPACT CROP PRODUCTION, WHICH RESULTS IN REDUCED YIELDS. PHYSICAL MANAGEMENT OF WEEDS SUCH AS HOEING, AND HAND-PULLING ARE USUALLY TIME-CONSUMING. MANAGING WEEDS USING HERBICIDES CAN LEAD TO THE WEEDS DEVELOPING RESISTANCE TO THEM. IN ADDITION TO RESISTANCE, THE HERBICIDES CAN CONTAMINATE UNDERGROUND WATER. THUS, THERE IS A NEED FOR AN ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY, COST-EFFECTIVE INTEGRATED WEED MANAGEMENT APPROACH. STUDIES ON WEED CONTROL USING SECONDARY COMPOUNDS FROM PLANTS ARE SIGNIFICANT IN PLANT PRODUCTIVITY, HENCE, THIS PROPOSED STUDY WILL ADVANCE KNOWLEDGE IN PLANT BIOLOGY AND AGRICULTURE. THE BIOLOGICAL CONTROL APPROACH TO MANAGE PENNISETUM CLANDESTINUM (KIKUYU GRASS), ECHINOCHLOA CRUS-GALLI (BARNYARD GRASS), AND LOLIUM MULTIFLORUM (ITALIAN RYEGRASS) CAN BE USED. FACULTY AND STUDENTS WILL CONDUCT A DETAILED STUDY IN UNDERSTANDING HOW NICANDRA PHYSALODES AFFECTS THE GROWTH OF WEEDS WHILE CROP GROWTH REMAINS UNAFFECTED. THE PROPOSED STUDY WILL ENHANCE RESEARCH AND TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES FOR UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS AT A HISTORICALLY BLACK UNIVERSITY AND OFFER BROADER PARTICIPATION IN STEM FOR MINORITY STUDENTS. STUDENTS WILL BE MENTORED, WITH SOME ASPECTS OF THE RESEARCH USED AS COURSE-BASED UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH EXPERIENCE IN PLANT ANATOMY, PLANT PHYSIOLOGY, AND ECOLOGY CLASSES. THE RESULTS FROM THE PROPOSED STUDY WILL BE PRESENTED AT CONFERENCES AND PUBLISHED IN PEER-REVIEWED JOURNALS. LOCAL FARMERS MIGHT ALSO BENEFIT FROM THE OUTCOMES OF THIS RESEARCH PROJECT. ACCORDING TO THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE, P. CLANDESTINUM (KIKUYU GRASS) IS A FEDERALLY LISTED NOXIOUS WEED THAT IS COMPETITIVE AGAINST LEGUMES. IT IS A PERENNIAL GRASS WHOSE SEEDS CAN LIE DORMANT FOR A LONG TIME. IT CAN ALSO DEVELOP FROM RHIZOMES, EASILY COLONIZE THE SOIL SURFACE, AND GROW FAST. E. CRUS-GALLI (BARNYARD GRASS) IS AN ANNUAL, FAST-GROWING WEED COMPETING AGAINST RICE. L. MULTIFLORUM (ITALIAN RYEGRASS) IS AN ANNUAL OR BIENNIAL WEED THAT COMPETES WITH CEREAL CROPS. THE AUTHORS OF THIS PROPOSED PROJECT HAVE OBSERVED THAT NICANDRA PHYSALODES FROM THE SOLANACEAE, A PLANT THAT CONTAINS ALKALOIDS, CAN BE USED TO MANAGE MONOCOTYLEDONOUS GRASSES. THE HYPOTHESIS FOR THE PROPOSED STUDY IS THAT ALKALOIDS FOUND IN NICANDRA PHYSALODES WILL INHIBIT THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF P. CLANDESTINUM (KIKUYU GRASS), E. CRUS-GALLI (BARNYARD GRASS), AND L. MULTIFLORUM (ITALIAN RYEGRASS). THE INVESTIGATORS, INCLUDING THE FACULTY AND THE STUDENTS, WILL EXAMINE THE MORPHOLOGICAL, OBSERVABLE, DEVELOPMENT, AND GROWTH EFFECTS OF N. PHYSALODES ON THE THREE NOXIOUS WEEDS UNDER DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS SUCH AS CHANGES IN TEMPERATURE AND THE SOIL PH. ALSO, CELL DIVISION IS EXPECTED TO BE AFFECTED WHEN THE THREE WEEDS DISPLAY GROWTH INHIBITION. THE RESEARCH TEAM WILL ALSO INVESTIGATE ANY CHROMOSOME ABERRATIONS EXPRESSED WHEN THE WEEDS ARE GROWING IN THE PRESENCE OF N. PHYSALODES. THE PROPOSED STUDY WILL ALSO INCLUDE THE INVESTIGATION OF THE COMPOUNDS THAT WILL BE EXTRACTED FROM THE N. PHYSALODES, WHICH PLAY AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN THE INHIBITION OF THE GROWTH OF THESE THREE WEEDS. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.
