For Patriot Dream: America Freedom Endures, Don P. Diffine Ph.D.
Belden Center Books
This book describes what in the world is at stake for America's war on terrorism. How shall we gauge the future of our land so recently visited with terrorism against our pillars of capitalism? For over 200 years, our country, through freedom and hard work, has changed the world. Our religious freedoms, civil freedoms, human rights, and the importance we place on the dignity of the individual--all these set us apart. Among all the world's nations, America still stands out in front. We should never forget that we are Americans, first, last, and always.
Sufferers Of The Revolution : The Paper Money Movement In Brunswick County, Virginia, 1780-1787, David Alan Geraghty
Sufferers Of The Revolution : The Paper Money Movement In Brunswick County, Virginia, 1780-1787, David Alan Geraghty
Master's Theses
The years following the American War for Independence were marked by economic decline and political uncertainty. In the mid-1780s, Virginia was mired in a depression that gave rise to a vocal movement that called for a return to a policy of emitting paper currency to augment scarce supplies of gold and silver coin. While historians have discussed Virginia's monetary situation at length there has never been a satisfactory examination of the people who supported this particular movement. Petitions from Brunswick County residents who backed emissions of paper money provide an opportunity to develop a more accurate portrait of this group. …

Jeremy Bloom, The Ncaa, And Hypocrisy, Richard C. Crepeau
On Sport and Society
It was reported yesterday that Jeremy Bloom one of the top mogul skiers in the U.S. is seeking an injunction against the NCAA. Bloom wants to play football at the University of Colorado this year but NCAA regulations will not allow it because Bloom has received money for personal appearances, endorsements, and modeling. These are related to his skiing skills, not his football prowess. Although the NCAA will allow an athlete to sign a professional contract in one sport and compete in another sport, NCAA bylaws allow them to receive money from other pro sports only if that money is …

Teaching Economics In United States History: One Teacher Shares Some Lessons, Kathleen S. Bullock
Critical and Creative Thinking Capstones Collection
This paper addresses the value and benefits of teaching economics in U.S. History at the high school level. Some of the challenges it presents such as curriculum style, teacher qualifications, assessment and accountability, pacing, and developing thinking skills for a theory-based course are discussed. I also offer activities with accompanying worksheets and graphic organizers that may assist teachers in meeting these challenges. The activities include tariffs, a run on the bank, monopolies, and recessions as an introduction to basic economic principles that are important in teaching U.S. History. A set of graphic organizers on The Civil War demonstrates how economics …

Prevailing Winds: Radical Activism And The American Indian Movement., David Kent Calfee
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In 1968 a number of Chippewa Indians met in Minneapolis, Minnesota to discuss some of the problems they faced in their communities. This meeting gave birth to the American Indian Movement. From 1968 to 1974, the American Indian Movement embarked on a series of radical protests designed to draw attention to the concerns of American Indians and force the Federal government into acting on their behalf. Unfortunately, these protests brought about a backlash from Federal law enforcement agencies that destroyed the American Indian Movement's national power structure.
The Geocentric Universe: The Making Of A Cultural Symbol, Kathleen M. Isaacson
The Geocentric Universe: The Making Of A Cultural Symbol, Kathleen M. Isaacson
All-Inclusive List of Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Since the 1980s, cultural history has applied the analysis of symbols to explain historical problems. Cultural historians such as Robert Darnton, Roger Chartier, and Dominick LaCapra have completed significant work in this area. Using their models, this study defines a cultural symbol within the history of science: the geocentric universe. It examines the symbol's origin and evolution from a mere idea to that of a symbol of significance. Beginning with the ancient Greece of Aristotle and Plato through the Middle Ages of Saint Thomas Aquinas and Dante Alighieri, the symbol's potent influence expanded via powerful narratives and beautiful works of …
Ambitious Beginnings: The Early Life And Political Career Of William Langer, Eric Rogness
Ambitious Beginnings: The Early Life And Political Career Of William Langer, Eric Rogness
Theses and Dissertations
This essay examines William Langer' s early life and political career until his abortive attempt to become governor of North Dakota in 1920. It argues that William Langer was a man driven by a need for status. It was this quest for status that drove him to politics and explains his rapid rise through the ranks. It also explains the large degree of publicity and controversy that permeated his early career. He was a man who wanted to stand out, he wanted recognition by his peers, and he wanted public office. Publicity and controversy served those ends. Moreover, I feel …

At Whose Expense?: Cherokee Freedmen In Indian Territory, Roxanne Elizabeth Johnson
History ETDs
This thesis is a history of the Cherokee Freedmen in Indian Territory from 1866 to 1898. Cherokee Freedmen were the former slaves of the Cherokee Nation of Indians. The position of Black Freedmen in Cherokee society before and after the Civil War differed from those of freedmen from southern states. The future of Freedmen in the Cherokee Nation was one of the many issues used by the Federal government to slowly dismantle Cherokee sovereignty. The purpose of this thesis is to explain the unique position the Cherokee Freedmen held in Indian Territory. Little research has been done concerning this part …
