"Patriotic Fears: Presidential Rhetoric after 9/11". This paper examines presidential rhetoric after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks from both a political and a rhetorical perspective. It examines how the rhetoric of terror and fear both redefined the public understanding of patriotism and impacted the 2004 election.

 

Students conducting research side-by-side with faculty has been an Alma College legacy for generations. Alma students team up with faculty on scholarly research or to collaborate on creative or performing arts projects. An annual Honors Day features student presentations, performances and exhibits. Many students present such work at regional, national and international meetings.

It didn’t even take a split second for Fenton sophomore Sarah Cox to decide whether she would join Alma College’s cheer team. She has been a cheerleader all her life, she says.

“I like performing in front of a crowd,” she says. “I’m not normally a loud person, but you can really be as loud and enthusiastic as you want while cheering. At Alma, we have a really great, supportive group, and Coach Sabourin is so enthusiastic.”
