		Details: Dr. Smith studies social capital, the norms of public trust and cooperation that permit communities to be successful in pursuing common objectives for the public good.
		Smith's research - done in collaboration with Dr. Richard Braunstein, also of the Political Science Department - shows that in South Dakota and some other states, social capital does not actually translate into the democratic traditions of open government and a well-informed electorate.
		Smith also studies this late night political humor, which she calls a "fun project." She notes that humor still states conclusions, and is usually based on rather negative assumptions.

	Heptune Lorenz-Pulte Jazz and Blues Page
		We first encountered Cab in a 1932 Betty Boop cartoon called "Minnie the Moocher." Here we saw live footage of a lithesome man dancing the moonwalk to "Prohibition Blues," an old Missourians instrumental performed by the Cab Calloway Orchestra (the former Missourians).
		When Betty and Bimbo ran into a cave, they were greeted by Cab Calloway, disguised as the rotoscoped ghost of a walrus, singing his signature tune, "Minnie the Moocher." The outlandish imagery and the eerie song fascinated us.
		We all were reintroduced to him via the Betty Boop cartoon, "I'll Be Glad When You're Dead, You Rascal, You," in which he performs the title song, one of his favorites.
