In that time, I’ve been inspired by a mom whose 5-year-old boy, by all rights, should have died at birth. I’ve watched another mother weep over the sweet, autistic son she lost in a drowning accident in 2010. I flew in a fully restored WWII B-24 bomber, and I’m terrified of heights. I’ve reported from the scene of a murder-suicide; a stabbing among high school girls (the cops called it an ongoing feud); a rollover accident where a conscious semi driver jackknifed his truck to block traffic -- he saved the lives of two motorcyclists, a state trooper told me, who laid their bike down to avoid being crushed by a car. Once, a thick-knee bird with an unnatural attraction to humans attacked my jeans at the Sedgwick County Zoo. I’ve sunk knee-deep in mud at a dried- up Butler County Lake. I’ve seen dogs tracking humans, a church service at Cheney Lake and a solider meet his 3-month-old son for the first time.

  • Narrative Analysis and Framing of Governor Brownback's
    Narrative analysis and framing of Governor Brownback’s state funding crisis in 2015: a case study of press secretary Eileen Hawley by Molly Jaqueline Hadfield B.A., University of Kansas 2012. A THESIS submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE Department of Journalism and Mass Communications College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2019 Approved by: Major Professor Steven Smethers Copyright © Molly Hadfield 2019. Abstract Sam Brownback’s tumultuous tenure as Governor of Kansas required talented public relations people to work with the media and help him sell his budget ideas to the state. His second of three Communications Directors, Eileen Hawley, served at the time of Brownback’s 2015 tax cuts that caused a massive budget shortfall, plunging the state into a financial crisis. This case study examines the effectiveness of framing strategies used by Hawley, who employed a more politically neutral stance during her messaging surrounding the Kansas budget shortfall. This study uses in-depth interviews with Hawley and Statehouse reporters to assess Hawley’s strategies in handling the ensuing financial crisis. Previous studies have shown that communications directors who present material in a more neutral manner gain the trust of the media, and therefore their frames have more saliency in the press. This study reveals mixed results in using such a strategy, with generally negative assessments from Capital reporters. Table of Contents Chapter 1- Introduction………………………………………………………………………..…1

And, in tracing the development of intraparty organization through several well-known examples of party infighting, I will demonstrate that intraparty organizations have played pivotal — yet largely unrecognized — roles in critical legislative battles, including turn-of-the-century economic struggles, midcentury battles over civil rights legislation, and contemporary debates over national health care policy.

Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains 31 (Autumn 2008): 212–229 212 Kansas History Bill Compton Builds Wichita a Pyrolysis Plant by Angie Gumm n the late 1960s and early 1970s the United States government, concerned over the twin issues of garbage accumulation and oil shortage, funded various resource recovery technologies that it hoped would eventually allow the nation’s trash to supply 2 to 3 percent of its power needs.1 Legislation such as the 1970 Resource Recovery Act and the 1976 Resource Recovery and Conservation Act funded Iseveral demonstration plants throughout the decade. The most expensive, technologically difficult, heav- ily funded, and promising disposal technique was pyrolysis, which cooked rather than burned waste to produce oil, carbon, and gas. But even with the possibility of federal funding, few communities had the financial or intellectual resources to host a pyrolysis plant. Those resource recovery operations that were established mostly failed, and though researchers learned a great deal from their failures during the 1970s, this knowledge was never used to develop new and improved technologies. In fact, once the threat of an energy crisis faded in the early 1980s, the federal government quickly dropped solid waste research and development from its agenda. The government’s abandonment of such questions widened the gap between those who saw technology as part of the environmental problem and those who believed in tech- nological solutions to the waste question.

  • Monday Morning, Herschel C. Logan (1934)
    Monday Morning, Herschel C. Logan (1934) Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains 33 (Summer 2010): 116–35 116 KANSAS HISTORY KANSAS : A Centennial Portrait, Part One by Emory Lindquist ansas History plans to offer its readers a special “Kansas at 150” issue next spring. In the meantime, as we look forward to our state’s rapidly approaching sesquicentennial year, we thought it might be interesting to look back fifty years. What were Kansans saying about their state as they reflected on the first one hundred years of statehood? The following are the learned observations of Kansas historian and university administrator Emory Lindquist, as first published in the Kansas Historical Quarterly’s spring 1961 issue. KThe essay has been illustrated with selected prints by Kansas artist Herschel C. Logan, lightly edited for style, and a few notes have been added (in all italics so as to be distinct from Lindquist’s original notes) where considered necessary, but for the most part it is presented here as originally published. Given the length of the piece, the editor has divided it into two parts for republication. Part one appears here; part two will appear in our autumn issue. Understandably, due to the passage of time, a few of Professor Lindquist’s comments are dated, but for better, and occasionally worse, most remain remarkably prescient. Dr. Emory Kempton Lindquist (1908–1992), a native of Lindsborg, Rhodes scholar, and former professor and president of Bethany College (1933–1953), served as a professor, a dean, and president at Wichita State University from 1953 to 1978.

Two men, Frank Mnnsev and George Perkins, bore the brunt of the load. Whereas Munsey left the party after 1912, Perkins .remained and played a major role in the party's course in history. George W. Perkins, like nc-sfc Republican businessmen, had, in 1910, been prepared to re-elect President William Howard Taft in 1912. Despite President Taft's difficulties with the insurgents, Perkins' position regained much the sane throughout most of 1911.
