Biogenesis, Richard C. Crepeau Aug 2013

Biogenesis, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

It is likely that Marvin Miller is spinning in his grave. Bud Selig may have achieved something that baseball owners have long wanted in their battle with the Major League Baseball Players Association. And that something would be a victory, or at least something resembling a victory, over the players.


Pac 12 Grand Canyon University, Richard C. Crepeau Aug 2013

Pac 12 Grand Canyon University, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

While waiting for the other shoe, or perhaps shoes, to drop in the anti-aging campaign by Major League Baseball, and noticing that Bud Selig is not getting any younger, it has suddenly hit me that college football is about to descend upon us with all the hypocrisy that it can muster. As a result crime reports in the sporting press will escalate, and there will be a new harvest of “Boys Gone Wild” videos as student-athletes begin their late summer season. One can only hope that “old school” football coaches do not retain “old school” training techniques that endanger the …


Newspaper Coverage Of Christianity In South Korea, 1996-2005, Taisik Hwang Aug 2013

Newspaper Coverage Of Christianity In South Korea, 1996-2005, Taisik Hwang

UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones

Drawing upon framing theory, this study content analyzes a sample of 2,614 news articles dealing with religions published in Chosun Ilbo from 1996 to 2005. Of this sample, it focuses on 727 news stories covering Christianity to examine how this major daily newspaper has covered this religion in terms of its tone and frames towards Protestants and megachurches. The key findings show that this religion seems to have been portrayed in a positive tone rather than in a negative tone and that Korean journalists tend to view both the Protestants and megachurches as providers of social work services. Given the …

Our Military Heroes, Richard C. Crepeau Jul 2013

Our Military Heroes, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

Over the last few years, with the Vietnam War fading into history and the military draft a thing of the past, the relationship between the general population of the United States and the U.S. Military has changed considerably. A conscious effort is now being made to honor American military personnel for the sacrifices they make on behalf of their country. This has long been needed and is a welcome development.


Murray, Richard C. Crepeau Jul 2013

Murray, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

The words monumental, epic, unforgettable, and historic are thrown around with reckless abandon in our hyperbolic age that specializes in over-inflating the reality of mundane events. As a historian I am especially wary of the term “historic,” when describing a sports event. In the universe of high frequency television commentators, all of these words suffer from overuse.

Wimbledon, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

It has been some time since I have watched an entire tennis match. In point of fact my interest has drifted away from the sport. Somehow Wimbledon calls me back. The setting and tradition play a role, as does the fact that it is the only grand slam tournament I have ever seen in person.


A Latina Captain In Showtime's Dexter: (Un)Veiling A Progressive Image Of Latinas Through Discourse Analysis Of Media-Audience Co-Constructions Of Latinidad', Diana Leon Jul 2013

A Latina Captain In Showtime's Dexter: (Un)Veiling A Progressive Image Of Latinas Through Discourse Analysis Of Media-Audience Co-Constructions Of Latinidad', Diana Leon

Communication ETDs

This thesis focuses on Showtimes series Dexter as a rich text through which to study the production and consumption of racial and gender representations in media. More specifically, this research examines the representation of a prominent Latina character (Captain Maria LaGuerta) in Dexter and the audience readings of this character to explore the co-construction of contemporary discourses on Latinidad. On the basis of a critical discourse analysis of the television text and online viewer comments, I discuss relations between the meanings encoded in the text and the meanings co-constructed interactively by audiences online, and the ideological implications of such discourse …


"Every 'One' And Every 'Thing' Can Be Loved": A Rhetorical Analysis Of Networked Self-Representation By The Objectùm Sexuality Community, Kristen L. Cole Jul 2013

"Every 'One' And Every 'Thing' Can Be Loved": A Rhetorical Analysis Of Networked Self-Representation By The Objectùm Sexuality Community, Kristen L. Cole

Communication ETDs

Using rhetorical criticism informed by actor-network theory (ANT), in this dissertation I explore the emergence of queer identity and queer community building within the Objectùm Sexuality Internationale Web site (OSI)--the largest source of information related to a community of over 300 hundred individuals who experience emotional and romantic desire towards objects. My goals in this study are (1) to identify and understand how rhetorical strategies are emergent and networked (rather than individually enacted) within the OSI Web site; and (2) how these emergent rhetorical strategies promote multiplicity of sexual desire and identity through the challenging of heteronormative and anthropocentric binaries …


Organizational Culture Of A Non-Profit Organization: A Study Of Local Congregations Of The United Methodist Church, Alexandra Arjannikova Jul 2013

Organizational Culture Of A Non-Profit Organization: A Study Of Local Congregations Of The United Methodist Church, Alexandra Arjannikova

Communication ETDs

This dissertation applies organizational culture, identification, commitment, and leadership theories to explain how United Methodist Church (UMC) congregations (members and pastors) view the work of the local church and how it differs from the recommendations of the denomination's top leadership. I develop case studies of congregations using a triangulated- methodological framework of observations, interviews, and textual analysis, which captures the experience of leaders and members of three UMC congregations located in different geographical areas. I analyze the data from these research sites using thematic analysis that produced detailed and comprehensive narratives about each congregation. These case studies identify the values …


Traversing Invitational Spaces: The Beautiful Iraqi Women Project, Carmen Lowry Jul 2013

Traversing Invitational Spaces: The Beautiful Iraqi Women Project, Carmen Lowry

Communication ETDs

The Beautiful Iraqi Women project was a short-term participatory research project co-designed and co-facilitated with Iraqi refugee women. Pragmatic project goals were to learn about Iraqi refugees' resettlement experiences and create accessible and welcoming entries into the different spaces that govern refugee resettlement processes. Theoretical goals were concerned with learning how invitational rhetoric concepts of safety, immanent value, self-determination, and sharing perspectives contribute to achieving the pragmatic goals. Research questions framing this project were: RQ1: How is invitational rhetoric constructed in a short-term project with Iraqi refugee women? RQ2: In this invitational space, what do Iraqi participants' shared perspectives reveal …


The Return Of The Serbian Other: Interpretative Repertoires Of Nationalism And Identity Politics In Online News Discourses On Serbia's Integration In The European Union, Jelena Petrovic Jul 2013

The Return Of The Serbian Other: Interpretative Repertoires Of Nationalism And Identity Politics In Online News Discourses On Serbia's Integration In The European Union, Jelena Petrovic

Communication ETDs

After more than a decade of political investment in integration, Serbia is still awaiting full membership into the European Union and thus is kept on the periphery of an imagined European community. In this difficult and uncertain process, Serbs have faced fractured national discourses that are inscribed with new forms of liminality encapsulated in an externally ascribed position of "flawed Europeans."This dissertation explores the co-construction of national identities in the context of public debate about the country's integration into the EU on Serbian online news websites. Informed by the theoretical and methodological framework of discursive psychology, this research identified interpretative …


Farming And Fighting As Practice And Pedagogy: A Procedural Field Analysis Of Digital Games, Alexis Pulos Jul 2013

Farming And Fighting As Practice And Pedagogy: A Procedural Field Analysis Of Digital Games, Alexis Pulos

Communication ETDs

Video games are currently one of the leading entertainment mediums across the globe, with games like Call of Duty: Black Ops (Activision) selling 4.3 million dollars in the first week of sales and adding to the parent company Activision Blizzard's 2011 revenue of 4.9 billion dollars. In 2011 the North American video game industry had a revenue of $25 billion (ESA, 2012), more than twice the film industry establishing video games as a predominant entertainment medium. However, in the fifty-four years that video games have been a medium for meaning making, the majority of research has focused on quantitative analysis …


Tensions In (Agri)Culture: The Negotiation Of Environmental Dialectics At An Urban Farmers Market', Jason Boys Jul 2013

Tensions In (Agri)Culture: The Negotiation Of Environmental Dialectics At An Urban Farmers Market', Jason Boys

Communication ETDs

The following study shows how dialectal tensions in environmental discourse are negotiated and serve to create and sustain the culture of an urban farmers market. Using theories of cultural communication as both theoretical grounding and methodology, the author was able to identify and interpret the functions of tensions previously presented by scholars in the field of communication. The principal set of tensions used for data analysis is the three dialectics presented by Milstein (2009) — mastery/harmony, othering/connection, exploitation/idealism. Upon analysis of these dialectics, a reoccurring theme emerged — discursive tension between economic advancement and community advancement. Cultural discourse analysis points …


Contested Knowledges: A Rhetorical Analysis Of 'Eclipses For Austin' By Pablo Vargas Lugo At The Intersection Of Art And Science, Carlos Rodrigo Guzman Jul 2013

Contested Knowledges: A Rhetorical Analysis Of 'Eclipses For Austin' By Pablo Vargas Lugo At The Intersection Of Art And Science, Carlos Rodrigo Guzman

Communication ETDs

The debate on whether art has any cognitive value might be traced to the texts of early philosophers and theorists who have approached the matter. In general, art has been constrained to contemplation and aesthetic experience while its contribution to knowledge is often disregarded. Science, on the other hand, constitutes the main system of organized knowledge production and enunciation. Contemporary artistic practices that address scientific knowledge tend to reformulate the latter in order to either produce new experiences with it or expand its cognitive capabilities. The works produced by these practices serve as artifacts that expose science's biases, axiomatic tenets, …
