100th Birthday of William Allen White Seminar
A Kansas observance at the University of Kansas marked the 100th birth anniversary of William Allen White with a seminar on The Role of the Mass Media in a Free Society. The author notes disappointment at the limited local editor attendance but praises the sessions for urging critical self examination and improved media responsibility. The Telegram stood out as Western Kansas’ lone publication at the event, aside from Hutchinson, and the writer hopes to apply lessons learned to improve.
