From the series Wordsmith. This popular series is based on contemporary concepts of vocabulary and linguistic theory. Each program centers on a themes like food, size, or communication. But from then on, anything goes--word cells cavort about to instruct and entertain, animated characters get their words in edgewise, word lore of all kinds lights up the nooks and crannies of the English language. Designed to arouse students curiosity about words and to sharpen their awareness of language, the series includes standard vocabulary development and incorporates terms from specialized vocabularies, foreign languages, and slang.

After a decade leading major daily newspapers, Timothy A. Franklin helped launch the IU School of Journalism’s National Sports Journalism Center on the Indianapolis campus, taking the project from idea stages to the debut of the nation’s first program offering a master’s degree in sports journalism.
Now a managing editor at Bloomberg News, Franklin traces his success at the center and in newspaper leadership to his early work.
As with many alumni, his first experience was at the Indiana Daily Student, where he excelled. In 1981, Franklin won the Society of Professional Journalists’ Barney Kilgore Award as the top college journalism student in the nation.
After receiving his degree in journalism education in 1983, he joined the Chicago Tribune as a reporter. During 17 years, he rose through the ranks from assistant city editor to associate managing editor.
His first leadership role was as editor of The Indianapolis Star, which under his guidance won a national Polk Award for statewide reporting for an investigation into Indiana’s services for mentally ill patients.
Next, as editor and vice president of the Orlando Sentinel, Franklin led the staff to win more than two dozen national journalism awards. While he was editor at the Baltimore Sun, the newspaper was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in local reporting in 2007.
Franklin also became a leader in the profession, especially in the area of open government. While at the Sentinel, he spearheaded what became “Sunshine Week,” the annual journalism observance that spotlights access to public information.
In 2008, Franklin returned to campus as the Louis A. Weil Jr. Endowed Chair at the School of Journalism, teaching classes and serving as director of the new National Sports Journalism Center, which prepares students for sports journalism careers.
Franklin joined Bloomberg News in 2011, where he is a managing editor in its Washington bureau.

“The shot that was heard around the world for people with disabilities,” is how one of Tom Olin’s photographic images has been described. As part of the ADA at 25 Legacy Tour, the Monroe County History Center in Bloomington, Indiana hosted an exhibit of Tom Olin’s work. On June 19, 2015, Tom gave a public talk in association with the exhibition. He was also present as the driver of the touring ADA Legacy bus. It made Indiana stops in Bloomington, Monticello, and Indianapolis during a national tour celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Tom has become widely known for the powerful advocacy of his photography focusing on the disability rights movement. In this videotaped talk, he discusses how he became involved in documenting the struggle for the rights of people with disabilities, and provides information about photographs in the exhibit.
Some of the iconic photographs he discusses include images of the event now referred to as the Capitol Crawl. Depicting the landmark protest where people got out of their wheelchairs to ascend the steps of the U.S. Capitol building, it became “the shot that was heard around the world.” The action on March 12, 1990 was initiated by the activist organization ADAPT (Americans Disabled for Accessible Public Transit ). Tom identifies disability leaders at the protest and points out that his eight-year-old niece, Jennifer Keelan, is among those shown crawling up the steps. Tom explains that even though the “Crawl” took place just a few months before the ADA was passed into law, there were numerous attempts being made to weaken its provisions. “In Congress, you had the Senate and the House conferring on the bill that was to be. And they had all these different ways of how they thought the bill should look like.”
Tom also describes photographs in the exhibit documenting other ADAPT actions in Memphis and at the federal building in Atlanta. It’s up to us, he says, to make sure the work of grassroots activists continues. “I see things happening. You know, I'm really impressed with a lot of young people.”
