His research investigates appearance-related issues surrounding gender and sexual identity. He tests and develops new theories of fashion adoption, fashion change and the consequences of fashion-related behaviors.<\/p>\n<p>Fulbright Specialists are competitively selected for their accomplishments and ways they can contribute to their profession. They are matched up with host institutions internationally to provide two- to six-week assistance programs.<\/p>\n<p>Said Reilly, &ldquo;I\u2019m looking forward to serving as a Fulbright Specialist because I want to contribute my knowledge, exchange ideas and information from other cultures, and establish continuing networks and partnerships with international scholars and schools. I want to encourage and mentor beginning educators and researchers.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p>And he has plenty of ideas about how he can help. &ldquo;I can provide seminars or guest lectures on dress in the <abbr title=\"lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer\">LGBTQ<\/abbr> community, including the semiotic structure and aesthetics of identity; clothing needs and issues of transgender consumers; or post-postmodern theories and perspectives related to the fashion industry,&rdquo; Reilly offers. &ldquo;I can assist with curriculum development for classes on the social-psychology of dress or the fashion industry in a post-postmodern era.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Although the program has been suspended until it is safe to travel again, Reilly is eager to start working with other institutions in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Professor Andy Reilly was accepted into the Fulbright Specialist program for developing new theories of fashion adoption and consequences of fashion-related behaviors. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[212,598,423,9],"class_list":["post-116206","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-people","tag-college-of-tropical-agriculture-and-human-resilience","tag-faculty-recognition","tag-fashion-design-and-merchandising","tag-uh-manoa","entry","has-media"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116206","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=116206"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116206\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":116239,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/116206\/revisions\/116239"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=116206"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=116206"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=116206"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
