Video bio of J Chapman, inducted to Indiana Broadcast Pioneers Hall of Fame in 2020;
J Chapman grew up in the broadcasting industry — his father, Jerry, led Indianapolis’s WFBM-FM/TV (now WRTV-TV) for three decades, and J got an early start in the media business when assigned by his father to mow the grass at the station’s northside transmitter site. After graduating from Hanover College in 1983, Chapman worked as on-air talent at stations in Indianapolis; South Bend, Indiana; and Madison, Indiana. He also worked at stations in Scranton, Pennsylvania, and Covington, Kentucky. Chapman was part of a team that launched Indianapolis’s Fox TV affiliate, WPDS-TV (now WXIN-TV), in 1984 as a photographer and sports anchor. In the later 1980s, Chapman decided to go into broadcast sales and joined Emmis Communications, where he started as a sales representative for WENS-FM and became sales manager before becoming general sales manager for WTLC-AM/FM. From 2001 to 2005, he was director of sales for Emmis’s Indianapolis Radio Group, where he worked for 17 years. In June 2013, he became owner and president of Woof Boom Radio with six stations throughout eastern Indiana, serving the Muncie, Anderson, Hartford City, Daleville, Yorktown, Alexandria, Pendleton, New Castle and Marion communities. He soon added more Indiana stations in Lafayette and a five-station cluster in Lima and Delphos, Ohio. Chapman also served as the board chairman of the Indiana Broadcasters Association.

Summary:
The fifth chalk talk in the series, this video describes the benefits of publishing articles in journals. The video also explains how scholars assess journals and how the ownership of scholarly journals has shifted.
This video is an overview of 200 years of change in the lives of Hoosiers with disabilities, produced by the Indiana Disability History Project. A very broad survey starting in the 19th century, the short video highlights the role of advocacy in pressing for the legislation and policy changes needed to secure the civil rights of Indiana's citizens with disabilities.
Part One: Hidden Away: By the end of the 19th century, Hoosiers with disabilities were considered to be a burden to society by the state. Indiana created institutions, placing people behind walls and locked doors.
Part Two: "Unfit" to Reproduce: In the early 20th century, experts promoted eugenics. They believed society could be improved by using biology and genetics to determine who was fit or unfit to live. In 1907, Indiana became the first state in the nation to legislate mandatory sterilization of some of its citizens.
Part Three: Living in the Community: Abuses in institutions came to light. Disability advocates pressed for closures. The establishment of group homes, community mental health centers, and sheltered workshops reflected a shift of funding into community services.
Part Four: The Struggle for Civil Rights: People with disabilities and their allies have fought for equal opportunities in employment, education, and housing, for equal access to public buildings and transportation. Because of these efforts, key U.S. civil rights legislation was enacted in the 20th century.
Part Five: Hoosiers with Disabilities: Today Hoosiers with disabilities are leading independent lives and contributing to their communities. But despite hard-won successes, inequalities persist in education, employment, economic status, and access to health care. The journey to full citizenship continues.
With this project I wanted to dive into the process of memory and how one recalls upon memory. I also wanted to explore the validity of memory and how we can fall into nostalgia and never really escape its clutches.
According to UK-based Global Witness, 14 land and environment defenders were killed in Honduras over the course of 2019, three years after the murder of celebrated Indigenous land defender Berta Cáceres.
In the first episode of our land defender series, we go live with journalist Nina Lakhani to discuss the life of Cáceres and the long campaign against her. We also check in with Indiana Public Broadcasting's Rebecca Thiele, who covers environmental issues in ITC's home state.
If you have any thoughts or questions about the show, you can tweet at us or send an email to itcpod@iu.edu.
In the second episode of our land defender series, we talk with land defender Marvin Wilcox and Front Line Defenders representative Adam Shapiro. They walk us through Marvin's story, in which agricultural producers in Panama take on the state and a transnational fruit company to protect their land and health, as well as the patterns commonly encountered by land defenders around the world.

In the third and final episode of our land defender series, we talk with Eduardo Brondizio, David Rodríguez Goyes, and Stella Emery Santana about the international systems that have long exploited indigenous land and resources, as well as indigenous and peasant resistance efforts and opportunities to support land defenders.
In this Law and Justice episode I speak with Dr Stephen Porges about the polyvagal theory, which is hugely influential among trauma practitioners with a specific focus on its relevance to the criminal justice system, including prisons. We discuss Dr Porges's concept of neuroception and what the autonomic nervous system needs to feel safe, as well as the gap between cultural, social and legal understandings of safety and risk. We also discuss the value and limits of the Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) science and the importance of public education about polyvagal theory, trauma, ACEs and survival responses in order to foster greater self-compassion and social support for survivors.
This study examines the 150 top-grossing animated films (1990-2019) and the discerning trends on how females are grossly underrepresented. The results concluded that when women do appear, they are seen and heard far less than their male counterparts. The gender inequality represented on screen is important and should be talked about more openly since it contributes to how society teaches children about socialization.
Dr. Douglas Hofstadter has researched, written, discovered and created many things - his expertise runs from cognitive science to literature, to language, and to art.
His 1979 book Goedel, Escher, Bach became a classic in the popular understanding of the workings of our brain. Professor Hofstadter has since written many things - some playful inquiries, some piercing meditations, some all at once. Since 1977, he has held a professorship at IU that started in computer science and has spanned many departments.
Dean Shanahan, Professor Elaine Monaghan and Producer Violet Baron sat down with Professor Hofstadter to hear his take on his writings, and on using musings on language to take on life.
Video bio of Linda Jackson, inducted to Indiana Broadcast Pioneers Hall of Fame in 2020;
For more than 30 years, Linda Jackson has delivered the news to viewers in northeast Indiana – the vast majority of them from the desk where she has anchored morning or evening newscasts spanning two generations. Jackson graduated from Indiana University with a degree in journalism and got her start in local news as an intern at then-WKJG-TV, the NBC affiliate based in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Her first full-time work in broadcasting was as a producer and reporter. She has also served the community in a station management role, and it is as a news anchor that Jackson has become best known in the region. In 2016, Jackson was tapped to lead the re-launched NBC news channel in Fort Wayne. She has served as lead anchor at “Fort Wayne’s NBC” since its launch, helping to establish the news team as a source for engaging and professional coverage in the community.

The Sample: Lunar New Year is a time to gather with friends and family to wish each other well in the new year. This week, producer Kat Spence sat down with students Kelly Fan and Elise Lee at the Asian Culture Center to find out more about the traditions surrounding this holiday as well as what the holiday means to them and their families.
A bowl adze is a special and hard to find tool used to hew or chop bowls. Machinist and blacksmith Dave Voges began making these special adzes when his friend Keith Ruble asked him if he could help him design better tool. Based on Keith’s bowl-hewing knowledge and Dave’s skill, the two designed what many consider one of the best bowl adzes available. Bowl hewers across Indiana prize these special tools. When the elder blacksmith learned that Jon Kay from Indiana University was going to video him making his tools, he decided to have some fun and affix a plaque from his alma mater and IU rival university, Purdue, on his power hammer. Sadly, Dave passed away before this project could be completed. I had intended to interview him about the making process, but it was not to be. Kay dedicate this video to the memory of David Flesher Voges (1940-2017) of Terre Haute, Indiana.
In the era of “big data” revolution, social scientists face different types of challenges that we think are more technical, rather than theoretical. While it is certainly a challenge to analyze bigger than tera-byte data, the analysis of big data is not just a matter of solving computational problems. Big data provides a unique opportunity to solve society’s big problems if and only if it is analyzed through careful research designs and strong theoretical frameworks. This talk introduces two practical strategies for social scientists — parallel aggregation and matching — to make big data smaller so that we can overcome technical difficulties while making robust statistical inference. I will illustrate them based on my own trial and error during the analysis of large-scale medical claims data under the context of the US opioid epidemic. This talk also presents several tips for the effective management of big data.
This brown bag documents the early stages of a community-engagement project with digital foundations. Our “History Harvest” is an ongoing invitation to community members to help shape an archive about identity and material culture at IUB. We’ll talk about the teaching, research, and ethical considerations that framed partnerships between IUB community members, two research centers, the libraries, and an undergraduate and graduate course and walk through some practical responses to those considerations that will shape the History Harvest as it moves forward.
What is the narrative of comic book history in the United States? For some comic scholars, a canon defined by themes such as trauma, memory, and autobiography defines the use way that comics provide particular insight on popular culture. Whatever these debates about comic canon, the form offers an important opportunity. Comic history is also urban history. Comics have played a central role in shaping our collective understanding of urban life. As visual narrative informed by questions of community, consumption, and identity, the comic medium offers an opportunity to think deeply about how the perception and the reality of urban life evolve through comic pages. In this presentation, Julian Chambliss will discuss the potential benefits offered by Collection as Data project developed by a Michigan State University workgroup using Michigan State University Library (MSUL) library metadata. What narratives of comics and community does such a dataset offer to scholars? How can these narratives engage students and scholars to create a greater understanding of comics and culture in the United States? This talk will highlight some potential pathways offered by comic book cities as windows on a wider urban imaginary in the United States.
This study takes a closer look at gender representation in the 150 top grossing animated films from 1990 to 2019. We examine the gap between representation, and male and female characters in lead characters, speaking roles, if speakers are male or female, unrealistic bodies, if female-led movies passed the Bechdel test and if animated films were likely going to fail the Bechdel test. Our results found that male characters have significantly more speaking roles than female characters and are overall more important in animated films than females. These results have confirmed to negatively impact the way children are socialized.
Publication and reporting bias are well-documented in the scientific literature. Increased data and code sharing, and access to other sources of information such as Clinical Study Reports (CSRs), address concerns about the non-reproducibility of individual studies. Ironically, greater transparency has given rise to new problems. That is, systematic reviewers and meta-analysts can choose from among dozens of effect sizes that could be included in their analyses. Initiatives that increase validity and reproducibility in individual studies also create opportunities for bias in research synthesis and clinical guideline development. Scientists could adopt new methods to avoid cherry-picking at all stages of research and evidence synthesis.
