The new chapter is the fifth in the state of Missouri joining the Alpha Beta Chapter at the Univerisity of Missouri-Columbia, Alpha Chi Chapter at • Washington University, Beta Sigma Chapter at St. Louis University and Eta Nu Chapter at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. Kirksville, with a population of approximately 16,000 is located in Northeast Missouri. It is primarily an agricultural community, although several light industries are located within the city. In addition to being the home of Northeast Missouri State University, it is also the location of Kirks­ ville College of Osteopathic Medicine which is the first institution of its kind in the world. Initiation ceremonies for the 43 undergraduates, faculty and honorary members were held in Violette Hall on the NMSU campus.

  • Tributes to Fallen Journalists: the Evolution of the Hero Myth in Journalistic Practice
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: TRIBUTES TO FALLEN JOURNALISTS: THE EVOLUTION OF THE HERO MYTH IN JOURNALISTIC PRACTICE Raymond McCaffrey, Doctor of Philosophy, 2013 Dissertation directed by: Associate Dean Ira Chinoy Philip Merrill College of Journalism This dissertation explores a hero mythology in newspaper tributes to fallen journalists and examines whether these stories implicitly or explicitly encouraged risk- taking by reporters and discouraged them from acknowledging the psychological consequences of that behavior. This historical case study uses qualitative methods to analyze New York Times tributes to U.S. journalists who died from 1854 to 2012 and whose names appeared on the Journalists Memorial at the Newseum in Washington, D.C. This study finds that the Times wrote about 274 of the 362 fallen journalists and depicted one in four in heroic terms, with their stories invoking themes often found in classic hero myths. Eighty percent of these hero journalists were on foreign assignments that typically involved covering war. Virtually all of these hero journalists killed in the United States were targeted because of their journalistic work. These journalists were seen as answering a call and giving their lives in service to a greater cause often tied to normative journalistic values, such as pursuing the truth. The tributes for 27 percent of these journalists mentioned qualities associated with risk-taking, such as courage. One in ten of these journalists embodied a type of stoicism that involved them downplaying personal hardship. A central finding of this study suggests that this hero mythology emerged in the mid-1920s, immediately after the adoption of state and national journalism ethics codes and the opening of the first journalism schools in the United States.
