Beginning with the appearance of the first yearbook, put together by the pioneer class during their junior year in 1870 and followed by publication of the first, short-lived newspaper, The College Monthly in 1887, students have been responsible for dozens of publications from literature to humor to a range of politically- and socially-oriented periodicals. This series consists of the collected student publications from Massachusetts Agricultural College (1867-1931), Massachusetts State College (1931-1947), and the University of Massachusetts (1947-2007), including student newspapers, magazines, newsletters, inserts, yearbooks, and songbooks.

CAMPBELL Spring 2013 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degrees in Communications Arts & Sciences and Media Studies with honors in Communication Arts & Sciences Reviewed and approved* by the following: Amber Walker Jackson Lecturer Thesis Supervisor Lori Bedell Senior Lecturer Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT Scandals and crises are not situations any organization wants to find itself in, yet it is imperative for those in charge to know how to effectively deal with controversy and steer the organization back to solid ground should they find themselves in the midst of one. This study examines the specific case of the Jerry Sandusky Child Abuse Sex Scandal that rocked the Penn State community and tarnished its once spotless reputation forever. The decisions made in the first month following the break of the scandal by top administrators and the Board of Trustees in regards to communication efforts to its faculty, students, and surrounding community are documented and then examined. Crisis communication management literature was consulted in the analysis of the administration’s communications decisions, as well as community input. Decisions that were appropriate, timely, and effective are noted and discussed. Also, decisions that were ill-advised, counterproductive and, in some cases, detrimental are also highlighted and studied at length. Suggestions for future improvements are included.

People who both attended the riot as well as people who observed Twitter activity during the time of the riot were interviewed. In addition, relevant tweets from the time of the riot were collected. By examining a more local, isolated instance of activism, this study will expand the current literature on the role of social media in activism. Based on the results of the study, it seems that Twitter played more of a facilitating role in expanding participation of the riot, rather than an inciting role. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS List of Tables ........................................................................................................................... iii Acknowledgements .................................................................................................................
