I explain the significance of party platforms and review the literature …

A New Atticus Is Afoot: The Portrayal Of Lawyers In Popular Culture, Anna Thrush
Senior Theses
This project analyzes the stereotypical image of lawyers in popular culture, focusing on either overly demonic or unrealistically heroic. Both stereotypes that are common portrayals of attorneys in popular culture are unrealistic and deny society a true comprehension of the profession. Popular culture has molded the image of lawyers to the characteristics that sell, rather than focusing on a realistic portrayal.

These stereotypes are exemplified in this project through a close literary analysis of lawyer characters from …

Comic books are among the rare books of the future. In fact, some comic books are scarcer and more valuable than many of the “old books” that fill special collections stacks.

Using the traditional methods of bibliographic analysis, we might better situate comics within the mission of academic libraries as we work to foster learning, discovery, and inclusivity …
