  • Print Journalism's Framing of Female Candidates in The
    Joining the World of Journals Welcome to the nation’s first and, to our knowledge, only undergraduate research journal in communi- cations. We discovered this fact while perusing the Web site of the Council on Undergraduate Research, which lists and links to the 60 or so undergraduate research journals nationwide (http://www.cur.org/ugjournal. html). Some of these journals focus on a discipline (e.g., Journal of Undergraduate Research in Physics), some are university-based and multidisciplinary (e.g., MIT Undergraduate Research Journal), and some are university-based and disciplinary (e.g., Furman University Electronic Journal in Undergraduate Mathematics). The Elon Journal is the first to focus on undergraduate research in journalism, media and communi- cations. The School of Communications at Elon University is the creator and publisher of the online journal. The second issue was published in Fall 2010 under the editorship of Dr. Byung Lee, associate professor in the School of Communications. The three purposes of the journal are: • To publish the best undergraduate research in Elon’s School of Communications each term, • To serve as a repository for quality work to benefit future students seeking models for how to do undergraduate research well, and • To advance the university’s priority to emphasize undergraduate student research. The Elon Journal is published twice a year, with spring and fall issues. Articles and other materials in the journal may be freely downloaded, reproduced and redistributed without permission as long as the author and source are properly cited. Student authors retain copyright own- ership of their works. Celebrating Student Research This journal reflects what we enjoy seeing in our students -- intellectual maturing.

This conference aims to showcase diverse approaches to a wide range of fan communities and practices across four core areas: screen and digital cultures (such as film, television, videogames, online and other digital media); public leisure cultures (such as sport, theme parks, festivals and conventions, popular culture stores, and concerts); audio cultures (such as podcasts, radio, and music); and material cultures (such as comic books, toys, books, and board games). This conference is aligned with the international Fan Studies Network and is supported by the Department of Media and Communications, the School of Arts, Social Sciences, and Humanities, and the Centre for Transformative Media Technologies at Swinburne University of Technology, Hawthorn campus. Organising Committee: Jessica Balanzategui Liam Burke Andrew Lynch Joanna McIntyre Naja Later Tara Lomax Taylor Hardwick Angela Ndalianis Acknowledgements This conference takes place on the land of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nations. We wish to pay our respects to Elders past, present, and emerging. We thank our esteemed keynotes, Dr Bertha Chin, Associate Professor Benjamin Woo, Professor Melanie Swalwell, and Dr Suzanne Scott, for their valuable contributions to the conference and to fan studies as a discipline.
