The Birmingham-Southern community has directly learned the startling impact that leadership can have on our lives. Now, perhaps more than ever before, there exists the opportunity and need for us to discover and critique the boundaries of leadership through learning, challenging, and re-imagining possibilities. As Keith Grint writes in Leadership: Limits and Possibilities, “Leadership is not just a theoretical arena but one with critical practical implications for us all and the limits of leadership—what leaders can do and what followers should allow them to do – are foundational aspects of this arena. Leadership, in effect, is too important to be left to leaders.” It is this axiom that guides the study of leadership and reminds us of the calling that we, as both leaders and followers, must answer in order to continue progress “forward ever.” Like a compass that points us to a destination, the Compass seeks to foster an academic discussion on the concepts of leadership and service. By showing the evolution of followers’ attitudes towards the infamous John Brown, Walter Lewellyn provides a case study on radical leadership in “Waiting for Superman: The Pottawatomie Creek Massacre and the Legend of John Brown.” MK Foster, in “Virgins and Pokerfaces: A Comparative Analysis of Madonna’s and Lady Gaga’s Leadership in Gender Representation,” analyzes how two popular cultural icons have redefi ned the limits of gender representation through their creative and transformational leadership.

Chaput will succeed Cardinal Justin Shemitz CNS photo/Gregory A. F. Rigali as archbishop of Philadelphia. Pope Benedict XVI accepted Cardinal Rigali’s resignation and named the Denver archbishop as his successor on July 19. In introducing Archbishop Archbishop Chaput in Charles J. Chaput a news conference at the Archdiocese of Philadelphia offices, Cardinal Rigali also offered an apology “if I have offended” and “for any weaknesses on my part,” but said he saw no particular connection between the timing of the Vatican accepting his resignation and turbulence in the archdiocese over a February grand jury report on how sex abuse cases were handled. Cardinal Rigali is 76, a year past the age at which bishops are required by canon law to submit their resignations to the Vatican. Philadelphia news organizations had been speculating that Cardinal Rigali’s resignation was related to public criticism of how the Patient Jack Trelor chats with Dominican Sister Catherine Marie on April 19 at Rosary Hill Home, a Dominican-run facility in Hawthorne, N.Y., that archdiocese has handled clergy sex abuse provides palliative care to people with incurable cancer who are in financial need. cases, but he had submitted his resignation when he turned 75 on April 19, 2010, as required under canon law.

A visual cornucopia of entertainment, pop music, phone-ins with big name guests and viewers questions that know no boundaries, cartoons, games, the occasional adventure stunt, and comedy all taking place within one show. The viewer on the other hand is relaxed, possibly still in their pyjamas with a bowl of cereal on hand, knowing that amongst the fast paced antics, they’re in safe hands of up-for-a-laugh presenters, with a one-to-one relationship that’s crucial within a thriving atmosphere of this kind. All those conventions when blended together are associated with only one genre of television; the live Saturday morning magazine show. For over 30 years, both the BBC and ITV spent that one day of the week breaking the rules of conventional television, and that fact that it was primarily aimed at children meant that if anything went wrong, no one cared.
