Making a difference By Tammy Quasius, science laboratory technician What do you do when an important medical issue that is being debated may mean losing your ability to deal with the issue--when your well-being is at risk because the discussions of powerful decision-makers may take a fright- ening turn for you? On March 22, Capitol Hill was “painted” orange, and I was there! For the seventh consecutive year I had the privi- lege of attending the National Multiple Sclerosis Society’s Public Policy Conference, clad in orange, our disease- awareness color. Throughout the year, members of the Society’s advocacy team identify issues important to the multiple sclerosis (MS) population. They determine what issues will have the most impact during that particular Congressional cycle, and prioritize 3-5 policy or funding requests. Then, in mid-March, delegates from all 50 states descend on Washington, D.C. for our Conference, which involves two days of intensive issue prep, culminating with our exciting day on The Hill. This year we were 300 strong, and among us were society staff, representatives from various MS coali- tion groups such as the Multiple Sclerosis Association of America, and volunteers whose lives have been touched by MS. As a District Activist Leader, representing the 11th Congressional District in NJ, I was there with my oldest son Jacob (who is pursuing a career in policy) to share my story on behalf of over 14,000 people in New Jersey living with MS.

Maddox ___________________________ Thomas A. Tweed ___________________________ Timothy B. Tyson An abstract of a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate Program in Religion in the Graduate School of Duke University 2014 Copyright by Mandy Ellene McMichael 2014 Abstract Christian engagement with beauty contests shifted dramatically between the initial Miss America pageant in 1921 and its 90 th anniversary in 2011. This dissertation explores how and why many Christians found the organization an institution worthy of partnership with the church. It examines three aspects of Christian involvement in the contest: the long history of beauty pageants, the persistent emphasis on individual physical attractiveness, and the idea of witness in southern evangelical culture. It argues that after 1965, at least two factors enabled the unlikely marriage of Christians and the Miss America Organization: the perceived threat of second-wave feminism and evangelicalism’s increasing desire to engage culture.
