  • Faith Voices Letter
    In Support Of Keeping Houses Of Worship Nonpartisan August 16, 2017 Dear Senator: As a leader in my religious community, I am strongly opposed to any effort to repeal or weaken current law that protects houses of worship from becoming centers of partisan politics. Changing the law would threaten the integrity and independence of houses of worship. We must not allow our sacred spaces to be transformed into spaces used to endorse or oppose political candidates. Faith leaders are called to speak truth to power, and we cannot do so if we are merely cogs in partisan political machines. The prophetic role of faith communities necessitates that we retain our independent voice. Current law respects this independence and strikes the right balance: houses of worship that enjoy favored tax-exempt status may engage in advocacy to address moral and political issues, but they cannot tell people who to vote for or against. Nothing in current law, however, prohibits me from endorsing or opposing political candidates in my own personal capacity. Changing the law to repeal or weaken the “Johnson Amendment” – the section of the tax code that prevents tax-exempt nonprofit organizations from endorsing or opposing candidates – would harm houses of worship, which are not identified or divided by partisan lines. Particularly in today’s political climate, engaging in partisan politics and issuing endorsements would be highly divisive and have a detrimental impact on congregational unity and civil discourse. I therefore urge you to oppose any repeal or weakening of the Johnson Amendment, thereby protecting the independence and integrity of houses of worship and other religious organizations in the charitable sector.

  • Wave Football: Dome Action, Homecoming at Gormley
    Tulane University Wave Football: Dome Action, Homecoming at Gormley July 24, 2008 1:30 AM Carol J. Schlueter [email protected] The Louisiana Superdome, home of Tulane football and one of the nation's premier athletics venues, will become Green Wave territory once again this fall as the season kicks off on Sept. 13 against East Carolina University, but Wave fans will be anticipating one season game in a different venue outdoors and steps away from the oaks in City Park. The Green Wave will take on Army in City Park's Tad Gormley Stadium on Oct. 4 for homecoming, while fans enjoy tailgating and celebrating around the stadium before the game. (Photo by Paula Burch-Celentano) For the first time since 2004, the Tulane homecoming game on Oct. 4 will take place in the 1937- era Tad Gormley Stadium, back in service after enduring extensive flooding due to Hurricane Katrina. Tulane will play Army in the homecoming contest at 2 p.m., one of five home games this season that will have an afternoon kickoff. The return to Tad Gormley in October has long been anticipated by the Wave faithful, who have fond memories of the 2002â“2004 homecoming games and celebrations held there. Count Charlotte Travieso in that number. “For alumni and the rest of us students, parents it's a much more welcoming and collegiate atmosphere, by the oak trees, near the expanse of Roosevelt Mall,” says Travieso, director of the Tulane Office of Alumni Affairs. As comfortable as it is at the Superdome, there's just something about a being outdoors at a college football game.

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Communications THE RISE AND FALL OF GRANTLAND A Thesis in Media Studies by Roger Van Scyoc © 2018 Roger Van Scyoc Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts May 2018 The thesis of Roger Van Scyoc was reviewed and approved* by the following: Russell Frank Associate Professor of Journalism Thesis Adviser Ford Risley Professor of Journalism Associate Dean for Undergraduate and Graduate Education Kevin Hagopian Senior Lecturer of Media Studies John Affleck Knight Chair in Sports Journalism and Society Matthew McAllister Professor of Media Studies Chair of Graduate Programs *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT The day before Halloween 2015, ESPN pulled the plug on Grantland. Spooked by slumping revenues and the ghost of its ousted leader Bill Simmons, the multimedia giant axed the sports and pop culture website that helped usher in a new era of digital media. The website, named for sports writing godfather Grantland Rice, channeled the prestige of a bygone era while crystallizing the nature of its own time. Grantland’s writers infused their pieces with spry commentary, unabashed passion and droll humor. Most importantly, they knew what they were writing about. From its birth in June 2011, Grantland quickly became a hub for educated sports consumption. Grantland’s pieces entertained and edified.
