Hurley 2013 Running Head: CREATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF CAIRD 3 ABSTRACT OF CAPSTONE CREATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF THE CENTRAL APPALACHIAN INSTITUTE FOR RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT This capstone explores the need for and creation of the Central Appalachian Institute for Research and Development (CAIRO). Using a qualitative methods approach which included examining historical calls for an institute dedicated to research and development in Central Appalachia by Appalachian scholars and leaders in higher education, as well as the examination of numerous institutions that currently exist in the region, this capstone project traces CAIRD's history from vision to inception. The concept of a institute dedicated solely to research and development for and in Central Appalachia has been discussed in the region for nearly fifty years. Kentucky Governor Bert T. Combs first endorsed the idea of a regional think tank in 1960. The President's Appalachian Regional Commission (PARC) agreed with Combs and echoed his call in the 1964 PARC Report which provided the foundation for the 1965 Appalachian Redevelopment Act. Thus this project was designed to fill the need for an interagency institute to coordinate and disseminate interdisciplinary research throughout Central Appalachia; to help create economic and educational opportunities and to break the cycle of poverty that currently exists in many of the counties in this region. In this capstone project, I first explore the many institutions located in Central Appalachia to Running Head: CREATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF CAIRD 4 determine what gaps exist with regard to research and the dissemination of scholarship. Then, I provide an overview of the creation of CAIRD from the ground up. Afterwards, I examine in what ways the region of Central Appalachia is still 'behind' its regional neighbors and how CAIRD might assist in economic growth. Finally, I discuss CAIRD's achievements thus far as well as future goals and projects.

  • The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network
    PLATFORMS AND OUTSIDERS IN PARTY NETWORKS: THE EVOLUTION OF THE DIGITAL POLITICAL ADVERTISING NETWORK Bridget Barrett A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts at the Hussman School of Journalism and Media. Chapel Hill 2020 Approved by: Daniel Kreiss Adam Saffer Adam Sheingate © 2020 Bridget Barrett ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Bridget Barrett: Platforms and Outsiders in Party Networks: The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network (Under the direction of Daniel Kreiss) Scholars seldom examine the companies that campaigns hire to run digital advertising. This thesis presents the first network analysis of relationships between federal political committees (n = 2,077) and the companies they hired for electoral digital political advertising services (n = 1,034) across 13 years (2003–2016) and three election cycles (2008, 2012, and 2016). The network expanded from 333 nodes in 2008 to 2,202 nodes in 2016. In 2012 and 2016, Facebook and Google had the highest normalized betweenness centrality (.34 and .27 in 2012 and .55 and .24 in 2016 respectively). Given their positions in the network, Facebook and Google should be considered consequential members of party networks. Of advertising agencies hired in the 2016 electoral cycle, 23% had no declared political specialization and were hired disproportionately by non-incumbents. The thesis argues their motivations may not be as well-aligned with party goals as those of established political professionals. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES AND FIGURES ....................................................................................................................

(April 15, 2020) –Gov. Beshear announced Wednesday that his administration is deepening ties with neighboring Indiana and Ohio in the fight against the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The Governor said he, Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb and Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine have agreed to continue close discussions on responding to the coronavirus pandemic, with an eye toward eventually coordinating plans to reopen the states’ economies. “Regionally, it is so critical,” Gov. Beshear said. “If you live in Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati is right across the river, we have to work together to make sure that one area isn’t on top of the virus and another just brings it in, and vice versa.” The Governor will continue regular calls and planning sessions with neighboring governors and other leaders over the coming weeks. As action is taken, the governors will provide updates. “These two governors and I have been on a call at least once a week, and let me tell you, they care about their people,” Gov. Beshear said. “There hasn’t been one political moment in it, just three people trying to do the best they can surrounded by teams trying to do the best that they can.” He said that the collaboration is essential but that each leader ultimately would make his own decisions.
