Hubris At Waco, Kenneth Anderson

Book Reviews

Book review of "The Ashes of Waco: An Investigation," written by Dick J. Reavis This is a review from the 1995 Times Literary Supplement of a book on the violent Waco encounter between federal law enforcement agents and members of the Branch Davidian religious cult that left many people, including many children, dead. The book presents the available evidence at what preceded the Reno Justice Department decision that sufficient evidence of child abuse was taking place that forcible intervention was warranted, as well as what transpired in the showdown. The book remains a standard account.

A Comparative Study Of Linear And Nonlinear Estimate At Completion Methods, Todd D. Nystrom

Theses and Dissertations

Controlling costs in the acquisition of new defense systems is a major challenge in today's environment of declining budgets and rapidly changing technology. One of the challenges faced by program managers and cost analysts is selecting the most appropriate Estimate at Completion (EAC) method for their program. This study compares the performance of the popular index-based EAC methods with several newer nonlinear, regression based EAC methods to determine whether the complex nonlinear methods perform better than the simpler index-based methods. In addition, the sensitivity of the results to stage of contract completion, system type, program phase, contract type, Department of …

Faculty Scholarship

In April 1994, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois issued a preliminary injunction halting the "Operation Clean Sweep" program operated by the Chicago Housing Authority ("CHA"). ³ The court did so over the protestations of some of those most affected, the public housing residents subjected to the CHA's searches. ⁴ Pratt v. Chicago Housing Authority⁵ attracted the attention of the nation and President William Clinton, who requested that the Justice Department investigate ways to strengthen security in public housing without offending the Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments of the United States Constitution.

The Threat To The American Idea Of Religious Liberty, Robert S. Peck

Mercer Law Review

With the Supreme Court unlikely to overturn its public school prayer decisions, those who seek a greater religious presence in education have launched two complementary strategies intended to expand existing guarantees of school-related worship rights.

The first strategy is a renewed effort to pass a school prayer constitutional amendment utilizing the political muscle that conservative religious interests demonstrated in the 1994 elections and which resulted in the first Republican controlled Congress in forty years. The amendment movement dangerously attempts to authorize the use of government offices for purposes of religious indoctrination. Though previous efforts at authorizing public school prayer through …
