    Print Journalism's Framing of Female Candidates in The

    Joining the World of Journals Welcome to the nation’s first and, to our knowledge, only undergraduate research journal in communi- cations. We discovered this fact while perusing the Web site of the Council on Undergraduate Research, which lists and links to the 60 or so undergraduate research journals nationwide (http://www.cur.org/ugjournal. html). Some of these journals focus on a discipline (e.g., Journal of Undergraduate Research in Physics), some are university-based and multidisciplinary (e.g., MIT Undergraduate Research Journal), and some are university-based and disciplinary (e.g., Furman University Electronic Journal in Undergraduate Mathematics). The Elon Journal is the first to focus on undergraduate research in journalism, media and communi- cations. The School of Communications at Elon University is the creator and publisher of the online journal. The second issue was published in Fall 2010 under the editorship of Dr. Byung Lee, associate professor in the School of Communications. The three purposes of the journal are: • To publish the best undergraduate research in Elon’s School of Communications each term, • To serve as a repository for quality work to benefit future students seeking models for how to do undergraduate research well, and • To advance the university’s priority to emphasize undergraduate student research. The Elon Journal is published twice a year, with spring and fall issues. Articles and other materials in the journal may be freely downloaded, reproduced and redistributed without permission as long as the author and source are properly cited. Student authors retain copyright own- ership of their works. Celebrating Student Research This journal reflects what we enjoy seeing in our students -- intellectual maturing.

    ABSTRACT POLITICAL (IN)DISCRETION: HILLARY CLINTON's RESPONSE to the LEWINSKY SCANDAL by Kelsey Snyder Through an Examination

    ABSTRACT POLITICAL (IN)DISCRETION: HILLARY CLINTON’S RESPONSE TO THE LEWINSKY SCANDAL by Kelsey Snyder Through an examination of gender, politics, and media during the time of the Lewinsky scandal, this project shows that conversations about the first lady shifted throughout 1998. Just after the allegations were made public, the press and American people fought against the forthright position that Hillary took; the expectations of traditional first ladies they had known before were not met. After facing backlash via the press, the first lady receded to more acceptably defined notions of her actions, based largely in late 20th century conservative definitions of appropriate gender roles. By the end of 1998, consideration of a run for the Senate and increased public support for her more traditional image provided a compromise for Hillary Rodham Clinton’s public image. Having finally met the expectations of the nation, the press spoke less of the first lady in comparison to family values and almost exclusively by means of her political abilities.

  • Dear Reader: the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation

    Dear Reader: the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation

    Dear Reader: The Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation (the “Foundation”) builds partnerships of purpose to help people across the globe live their best life stories. We work with businesses, NGOs, governments, and individuals around the world to work faster, better, and leaner; to find solutions that last; and to transform lives and communities. In 2013, the Foundation expanded our work, reinforced our financial footing, and became better positioned to maximize our impact for years to come. Our tax statements reflect these improvements. To further our long-term impact, the Foundation began raising funds in 2013 for an endowment that will help us responsibly support established programs and expand our work. Financial commitments related to this endowment are reflected as increased revenue in these 990 documents. In addition, in 2013 the Foundation reconsolidated the Clinton Global Initiative into its operations. As such, the 990 tax document shows a corresponding increase in both revenue and expenses. The 990 document for the Clinton Health Access Initiative, a separate but affiliated initiative of the Foundation, is also included. We are proud of the impact that the Clinton Foundation has on millions of lives across the globe. In 2013: The Clinton Climate Initiative expanded its home energy efficiency upgrade program, from one program in Arkansas to six programs across the nation; The Clinton Development Initiative expanded programs in Malawi, Tanzania, and Rwanda that help more than 25,000 farmers generate greater harvests and
