Salve Regina will award doctorates in humanities to six candidates during the 66th Commencement ceremony Sunday, May 15. The doctoral program provides an interdisciplinary investigation of the question: “What does it mean to be human in an age of advanced technology?”

Fully accredited in 1994, the program was developed to integrate philosophical and humane insights into the educational process while addressing current and anticipated technological challenges.

The candidates and their dissertation titles are:

  • Fred Abong: “Bringing Back the Magic: Philosophical Temperaments and the Entwined, Embodied, and Enchanted Self”
  • Mary Keator: “Re-appropriating the Ancient Monastic Practice of Lectio Divina: A Contemplative Pedagogical Method of Inquiry to Experience Wisdom Embedded in the Humanities”
  • Marc Gerard Levasseur: “Classical-Christian Friendship Operating in Western Literature: Oral Traditions to the Apex of Print Culture”
  • Laura Anne Macaluso: “Art for the Elm City: Public Art in New Haven, Connecticut”
  • Paul A. Povlock: “Environmental Ethics and the Electric Power Grid: A Case for Technological Momentum”
  • Kirsti Svendsen: “Relationships Between Measures of Human/Moral Development, Happiness and the Technology Driven, Centralized Way of Being”
