Mediocrity And Roll-Calls: The Identification Of Marginal Congressmen And Some Study Of Their Voting Behavior, Richard K. Wray
Honors Projects
In any field there are some people who excel and some who do poorly; the United States House of Representatives should not be expected to be an exception. A purpose of this paper is to analyze those in the House who perform relatively poorly; their actions and voting. However, it should be noted that a determination of who is mediocre and what effects mediocrity has on voting cannot be expected to explain how or if this factor can be dealt with or eliminated.

The Struggle For Standing To Secure Judical Review Of The Elementary And Secondary Education Act Of 1965, Donald E. Garrison
The Struggle For Standing To Secure Judical Review Of The Elementary And Secondary Education Act Of 1965, Donald E. Garrison
Honors Projects
This is a case study of the attempts of ordinary taxpayers, as well as of a United States Senator, to resolve an issue through the judicial process. Ordinarily, individuals bring questions of contemporary significance to the Supreme Court, seeking an interpretation of the Constitution which favors their particular interests. Seldom, however, do individuals have occasion to question the adjudicatory powers of the Court itself--a debate of the separation of powers doctrines older than the Constitution itself.

Public Relations And Political Power: A Case Study Of The Caterpillar Tractor Co., Frank Simpson
Public Relations And Political Power: A Case Study Of The Caterpillar Tractor Co., Frank Simpson
Honors Projects
The central concern of the paper is to present a case study of the public relations activities of the Caterpillar Tractor Co. Caterpillar is the largest private employer in the state of Illinois and the largest single employer in the city of Peoria. It has plants, offices, and parts depots in twenty-two places in nine teen different congressional districts; and the Company also has many
facilities overseas. Finally, Caterpillar is a major exporter o f heavy machinery. Such an organization would therefore be highly interested in--and sensitive to--the political climate in which it operates.
