The need to succeed, to be the best, and to get there, no matter what it takes, becomes a controlling force that can lead each one of us down the wrong path. Although sometimes difficult, I chose to walk down the right path knowing that it may be more difficult. This year, I was part of the cross-country team for the second year in a row, but I wasn’t able to make it to practice every day because I started a tutoring agency that began to take time away from practice, meaning I would be missing one, or some weeks, even two, practices. I was never a cross-country start and this circumstance would have been the perfect opportunity to throw in the towel and not do any training that day. Instead I chose to adapt the practice to fit into my schedule and planned a workout that would still provide me with the training necessary to stay fit for the season. At times, I was tired and did not want to do the twenty minutes of interval running I had planned nor did I want to do the core workout that followed, but I always looked inside and questioned myself: would I be okay with cutting corners? And the answer to that question propelled me into a workout that thirty minutes later reminded me of why I always answer no to that question. I look at who I am, the people in my life, the decisions I made in the past week, or even day. I find myself looking for traces of integrity, moments where I chose to do the right thing even when no one was there to congratulate me for it. I hope to find traces of this characteristic follow my journey to success and I try to intertwine the two paths and not separate them. If success was measured merely by the amount of money in our bank or the seat we held in the Forbes Richest People rankings than we would live in a world of lying, cheating people. True success is measured by the way your reach you goal, whether you stuck with the morals that have intrinsically run your life, and the values you know to be correct. We can all reach the same goal; some of us will choose to take the easy path with no resistance, but we will end up living a falsified life of solitude. Or, we can take the harder road, tell the truth and pay for the consequences, knowing that looking at the mirror will not make us cringe. Alexander Hamilton once said, “If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything.” I stand for integrity and I urge every person I encounter, befriend, or collaborate with, to stand beside me. Jennifer Polito Saint Joseph Academy I am a person of character and integrity, but I did not get to this place on my own. My brother has been an invisible presence that allowed me to develop this integrity. He was not a person of integrity himself. He was quite opposite. A drug addict that jumped from rehab to homelessness was my role model in life. Jared is my big brother. When he was there, fully there and without drugs, he was absolutely wonderful. The kind of wonderful that leaves despair when it’s gone. That loss of my brother broke me and my family. I devoted my life to never becoming anything like my big brother, who should have been my role model and then I realized that in some ways he is. Jared has taught me courage. He left. Jared chose drugs over us a long time ago and choosing a substance over your own family is not courageous. He didn’t have the strength to fight the drugs. He still doesn’t have the strength to fight the drugs. He lies and steals from his own family, while I fight the repercussions of his actions daily. Jared has taught me that all we have in this short life is our integrity. So I get up every day and make certain that the world knows I am a force to be reckoned with. I held my mom when she fell apart. I picked my brothers up and carried them through the ruins Jared left in his wake. I am resilient and I will fight until my dying day for the things that I love and believe in. I pray that one day Jared may receive even a fraction of the courage he has instilled in me. Jared has been a positive influence on me, but that does not mean a person needs a drug addict for a brother to develop integrity and good character. I choose to show those around me how to become a person of integrity by leading by example. I choose to do what Jared never did, but what my parents and my other brother have done for me, which is being an upstanding person. Every person has the choice to do good. We must look at our mistakes, and others’ mistakes, in the face, and learn from them. I motivate others by doing what is right and just, but mostly by standing up for the things I believe in. When we see others that we look up to, standing up for what is right, we follow. The most important part about being an advocate of good character is having good character yourself. My morals, and those of my other brothers, came to us the hard way, by watching the repercussions of not having any.

Director of Thesis: Yusuf Kalyango This study examines the framing of religion in the news coverage of a conflict between India and Pakistan which happened from May 5, 1999 and July 30, 1999 in selected U.S. news outlets. The study looks into the coverage of the conflict in seven national and regional U.S. newspapers, and three U.S. television channels. The theoretical framework of this study was framing, and the frames of reactionary depiction and partisan alignment were used to study if the news outlets framed any country or its religion like Hinduism and Islam negatively or in a partisan manner. The findings showed that the coverage of the conflict covered Pakistan and Islam negatively, and held them responsible for invading India and escalating the conflict.

Price, President of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS). "We received a record number of entries this year for the News and Documentary Emmy Awards,” said Price. “Entries totaled 1654, up from last year’s 1450.” The awards recognize outstanding achievement by individuals and programs broadcast during the 2001 calendar year. “These entries and nominations reflect the extraordinary year of television news coverage that 2001 proved to be,” said Bill Small, Vice Chairman for News and Documentaries. “This year’s awards will pay tribute to the role of broadcast journalists in covering 9/11 and the war in Afghanistan, among the most significant news stories in modern history. It will also reflect that same excellence in the coverage of news in other key areas affecting our culture including the AIDS crisis as a world health problem and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.” This year, the presentation of the News and Documentary Emmy Awards will be part of a series of events titled “9/11 to 9/11: A Tribute to News Professionals.” The tribute will begin on Monday, September 9, at the Essex House with a noontime lunch for newsmakers and leading television journalists and executives.

Denton, Jr., Chair Dr. Rachel L. Holloway Dr. Jim A. Kuypers 27 April 2006 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Kenneth Burke, Pentad, President George W. Bush, September 11 terrorist attacks, Hurricane Katrina, television news media, broadcast news media, primetime network news, rhetorical presidency, presidential crisis rhetoric Copyright 2007, Nadia Michele Aljabri A Comparative Pentadic Analysis of Mediated Presidential Discourse During 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina Nadia Michele Aljabri ABSTRACT In his first term as president, George W. Bush was confronted with one of the worst national attacks in United States history: the September 11 terrorist attacks of 2001. Through the devastation, however, President Bush triumphed in unifying and guiding this nation during what would become the height of his rhetorical leadership. Following his reelection in 2004, President Bush faced one of the worst natural disasters in the nation‘s history: Category 4 Hurricane Katrina. In its aftermath, Katrina became known as ―one of the worst mishandled disasters ever.‖ Utilizing Kenneth Burke‘s pentad, this study analyzes the president‘s rhetorical response and the primetime network news coverage following each crisis in an attempt to determine how President Bush could fare so well in one instance, consoling and leading the American people, while falling short in his second major crisis during his term as president.

They gave us the news straight, which they don't always do. They told us what was going on without the cynicism and without the atti-tude. For that, they deserve our thanks and our admira-tion. But it shouldn't take a national catastrophe of unpar-alleled magnitude to get the news without the usual biases. Before September 11, the media elites, too often, behaved badly. And they will again. It is, after all, who they are. And that is what this book is all about. Introduction "They Think You're a Traitor" I have it on good authority that my liberal friends in the news media, who account for about 98 percent of all my friends in the news media, are planning a big party to congratulate me for writing this book. As I understand it, media stars like Dan Rather and Tom Brokaw and Peter Jennings will make speeches thank-ing me for actually saying what they either can't or won't.
