ACHS graduate's college research predicted Ukraine Monmouth, IL - Less than a year after he had graduated from Adair County High School in 2018, C.J. Bonifer started to study a region of the world that wound up dominating the news in 2022. Bonifer is now a senior at Monmouth College, poised to graduate on May 15, 2022, from the liberal arts college in west-central Illinois. An independent research project that he completed three years ago proved to be an accurate glimpse into the future, although slightly off geographically. As a freshman, Bonifer worked on a project under the guidance of former communication studies professor Robert Hinck. Titled "Russian Media Appeals in the Baltic States," it made the observation that signs were pointing to the distinct possibility of Russian military aggression in the region. "Since the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, the Baltic States - Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia - have been at the forefront of Russian attention and coordinated media attacks," wrote Bonifer at the time. "This series of events have not been highly publicized by U.S. media outlets, so research showing these actions is ever important."
