intentions to start new busi-
nesses. The research also
identifies other skills that may
be useful to entrepreneurs as
they continue to seek ways
to influence others to benefit
their businesses - a finding
that could potentially affect
the curriculum of entrepre-
neurship education programs.
Davis plans to graduate in
May 2014 and hopes to teach
on the college level and con-
duct research in the areas of
strategy and entrepreneurship.
Jonathan Dombrosky
Subsistence patterns
Dombrosky, a senior
anthropology major and
Honors College student, won
the Society of Ethnobiology's
2012 Undergraduate
Ethnobiologist Award. He
has been studying animal
remains from archaeological
sites with Steve Wolverton,
associate professor of geogra-phy, focusing on subsistence
patterns in the Northern
Rio Grande region of New
Mexico from 1300 to 1600
A.D. The work will help
answer questions about what
types of animals humans
hunted, how people procured
and processed animals and
how these practices have
changed over time.
Dombrosky also works as a
National Science Foundation
research assistant helping fur-
ther methodology for extract-
ing protein food residues from
pottery found at archaeologi-
cal sites. He plans to pursue
a doctorate in environmental
science at UNT.
Monica Gastelumendi
Music education
Gastelumendi, a mas-
ter's student in jazz stud-
ies, received a $10,000
Philanthropic Educational
Organization InternationalPeace Scholarship for a non-
profit music organization that
will train music teachers and
provide better music educa-
tion for children in Peru.
Gastelumendi is originally
from Peru, which has a rich
folkloric music tradition but
provides little arts education.
She started a female choir
at her high school in Lima,
Peru, and, at age 19, formed a
big band - now a nonprofit
music organization called
Jazz Jaus. She traveled to the
United States to obtain a
degree in music. She works as
a consulting professional for
the nonprofit organization
that UNT alumna Carolina
Araoz runs as president.
Gastelumendi has stud-
ied vocal jazz with Jennifer
Barnes, assistant professor
of jazz studies, and Rosana
Eckert, an adjunct in jazz
studies, and plans to explore
arranging Peruvian music
with jazz.Emily Klement
Hispanic transfer rates
For her doctoral disserta-
tion, Klement found that the
presence of Hispanic faculty
on community college cam-
puses was the greatest factor
of those she studied in deter-
mining whether Hispanic
students will transfer to four-
year universities.
Klement analyzed data
from the Texas Higher
Education Coordinating
Board on 50 Texas commu-
nity colleges. Her mentor was
Beverly Bower, professor of
counseling and higher educa-
tion, Don A. Buchholz Chair
for Community Education
and director of the Bill J.
Priest Center at UNT.
Klement graduated in
August with her doctorate
in higher education. She is
the dean of the Bowie and
Graham campuses of North
Central Texas College.UNT.EDU/UNTRESEARCH UNT RESEARCH 203 33
