1950s
Research Emphasis Strengthened
|
Following the lead of deans Frank L. Mott and Earl English, the faculty and graduate student scholarship was largely historical and qualitative in methodology. Doctoral students in the 1950s researched topics such as Norwegian press history and Harry S. Truman's relationship with the press. Journalism research as a whole existed on a much smaller scale before the 1950s; therefore, most faculty members published textbooks and guides, not scholarly articles.
Dean Emeritus Frank L. Mott was considered the "outstanding authority in the country on the history of journalism" (top left). Graduate students spent considerable time in the Frank Lee Martin Memorial Library (center and bottom).
