Changing times: How Florida's Whig newspapers reported on slavery and the 1850 Compromise, 1848-1852.
Creator
Sherrie L. Farabee
Abstract/Description
This study is a content analysis that examines how issues and events impacted news coverage in three Whig newspapers: the Florida Whig, the A Florida Sentinel and the Florida Republican. All were printed in Florida between 1848 and 1852, a time when the Whig Party led state and national government. Content analysis was chosen to track any changes in article length, article frequency, news hole, and topic prominence of articles about slavery and the 1850 Compromise. This study shows that the...
Show moreThis study is a content analysis that examines how issues and events impacted news coverage in three Whig newspapers: the Florida Whig, the A Florida Sentinel and the Florida Republican. All were printed in Florida between 1848 and 1852, a time when the Whig Party led state and national government. Content analysis was chosen to track any changes in article length, article frequency, news hole, and topic prominence of articles about slavery and the 1850 Compromise. This study shows that the length and frequency of articles in the three Florida Whig newspapers increased or decreased with fluctuations of Whig Party emphasis on slavery and the 1850 Compromise. it also shows slavery and the 1850 Compromise were seldom the primary topics of any article. Normally the topics would be coupled with others: state's rights, territorial annexation, and economics. The study suggests that emphasis was heightened, not only by the Whig drive to persuade Floridians to their political side, but by specific events such as presidential elections and the d

Show moreThis thesis study is in four major chapters; a phenomenological study about the feeling of a studio, a programmatic study about the impact of the project in the community, and an analytical study of actual studios. These studies will be implemented in the final design of An Art Community for Tallahassee. Studio as feeling is a subjective phenomenological study of the roles of the studio environment. The environment suggest certain generators that can be applied to architecture. The programmatic is a general facility program for a proposal of an Art Community in Tallahassee. It faces the general design and cultural issues that are involved when this type of project is placed in a community. The analytical study is a post occupancy evaluation of the artist community within Railroad Square. It investigates the spaces and the activities of individual studios.

Show moreThis study specifically aims to illuminate the black attorneys’ experience in post—Civil War Florida by focusing on the complex careers of four black lawyers who began their careers during Reconstruction. The discussion will familiarize the reader with the immense obstacles that deterred African American attorneys from gaining prominence and the struggles endured by black lawyers throughout the South. As true regionally, the majority of Florida's legal professionals could not afford to practice law exclusively and had to pursue other careers as their main source of income. Politics often emerged as the career of choice for black lawyers. As public figures these men accomplished remarkable feats and flourished as leaders of the black community.8 This essay, in a larger sense, attempts to provide fresh and helpful information concerning the black 7 See generally, Foner, Freedom ’s Lawmakers; Brown, Florida ’s ‘Black Public Oflicialsg Richardson, Negro in the Reconstruction of Florida. 8 See generally, Richardson, The Negro in the Reconstruction of Florida; Woodson, The Negro Professional and the Community; Ward, Black Physicians in the Jim Crow South; Shofner, Nor Is It Over Yet.

Show moreThe main purpose of this study was to investigate the attitudes of Leon County home gardeners towards Integrated OPest Management (IPM) strategies,as not much is known to what extent IPM is being practiced. This could provide information that would enable extension specialists to make the program more attractive or serve as an evaluation process in research applicable to home gardening. To achieve this purpose, four objectives were developed. Data were collected by a mailed questionnaire. From a sample of 100 gardeners, 45 responses (45 percent) were received. Analysis of data included frequency distributions, percent responses, chi-square and one-way analysis of variance scores. The major findings of this study were: 1. There were only 6 (13 percent) of the respondents who have heard of "Integrated Pest Management (IPM)"; but further findings revealed that most of them used IPM practices without realizing that those were strategies for ix an integrated approach to pest management. 2. Of the six who were aware of IPM, most of them said that it is somewhat effective as they had derived benefits in increase yields, health consideration and reduction in chemical expenses. 3. Participants with a higher level of education (above 12th grade) were more knowledgeable of IPM practices. Those with garden size plots of less than 1000 square feet, practiced more of the IPM strategies. 4. There were no significant differences between implementing IPM strategies with the selected demographic variables of age, years of gardening experience, or the number of people in the family
