"Court interpreters are needed in the state of Oregon. The issue is the number of people passing the court certification examination process is not enough to combat the demand; the Oregon Judicial Department reports an overall 18% pass rate. As a heritage Spanish speaker I believed that being raised with the ability to speak two languages would be an advantage and a guarantee to passing the court certification exams. I was wrong, this is a documentation of that process from September 1, 2022 when I was first introduced to the idea to November 1, 2023 when I received the results of my oral exam the second time. Two timelines are included: my first attempt and second attempt to become court certified. Relevant literature of key legislation for the right to have an interpreter, the court certification process, skills and knowledge needed to be an effective interpreter, and mental fatigue and motivation have been documented. Themes were collected from reflections done after key events of the process. Recommendations are included at the end of this paper. The final goal of this research is to provide information and personal perspective to better prepare interpreters like me to take and pass the court interpreting certification process."

"Spanish interpreters working in health care can often be expected to handle a wide variety of accents and dialects though they may not always be familiar with the specific dialects they are interpreting. Codes of ethics and standards of practice are lacking in solutions that interpreters can employ when working with unfamiliar dialects, outside of recusing themselves from assignments or managing with clarifications (California Healthcare Interpreting Association, 2002; Hernandez-Iverson, 2010; National Council on Interpreting in Health Care, 2004). There is currently little to no research available on medical interpreters’ management of unfamiliar dialects and also limited to no educational opportunities for interpreters to improve these skills.\nThe objective of this thesis was to survey what dialects of Spanish interpreters are most and least familiar with, as well as to compare the perceptions that interpreters have about how they handle an unfamiliar dialect such as Dominican Spanish. This was done by calculating rate of errors in interpreters’ renditions of a short vignette of a patient-provider appointment in which the patient is a native speaker of Dominican Spanish. This study will examine interpreters’ identification of challenges (demands) when working with Dominican Spanish as well as their potential responses (controls) to see if educational opportunities on cross-dialectal communication are an option that interpreters even consider."

"In this paper I analyze Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, and her TED Talk based off her book, “We Should All be Feminists.” Adichie is a Nigerian woman who has firsthand experience with feminist issues of inequality and she serves as a speaker and activist for issues of feminism and beyond. She is a renowned author, activist, academic, and a feminist. In hearing of her personal experiences regarding inequality, I realized I am able to identify parallels between her experiences and the inequalities which I have faced despite our vastly different origin stories. The importance of her work as a feminist is emphasized in her rhetorical techniques, such as using personal narratives and public vocabulary to bring connection and a sense of equality to her audience. Adichie urges society to modify their actions in order to promote and normalize feminism in a positive light."
