Edward Washburn: I was one of four managing assistant directors under the managing director, Mr. H.D. Thoreau. My responsibilities were everything that nobody else had. They turned out to be myriad and diverse, to say the least. Max Dunn was an assistant managing director in charge of all skiing and skating events. This included supervision of the building of the ice rink, the outdoor skating rink, laying out all of the courses, getting the judges, doing all that. That occupied Max pretty fully. He couldn't do much of anything else. Bob Ewen was the personnel manager. He had change of all the hiring, firing, paying and all the rest of all the personnel on the staff, which proved to be a number of hundreds -- I don't remember how many, but there were many -- and also, seeing that the facilities were appropriate and the rest of it, in Squaw Valley. So that took care of Mr. Ewen. Al Ewen his name was [ed. note: The official report lists Robert Search as personnel director and Al Ewen as assistant general manager].

Ginzberg Professor of History and Women’s Studies Stephen Piazza Professor of Kinesiology Graduate Program Director *Signature are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT On May 12, 1970, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) awarded Denver, Colorado, the 1976 winter Olympic games. About two and half years later, on November 7, 1972, Colorado citizens voted by a three to two margin to make it a violation of Colorado’s constitution for state funds to be allocated toward the event. Colorado politicians and business leaders had spent years planning, campaigning, and traveling the globe to earn the right to host the winter sports festival. Nevertheless, with funding suddenly inaccessible, Denver’s Olympic planners were forced to rescind their invitation to “the youth of the world,” as Olympic hosts traditionally declared every four years. This dissertation delves into the political controversies surrounding the 1976 Denver winter Olympic games. Colorado’s decision to banish the Olympics was the product of a change in how Coloradans viewed economic growth, combined with broadened understandings of the political power of citizenship.

  • Skiing NATIONAL COLLEGIATE MEN’S and WOMEN’S
    Skiing NATIONAL COLLEGIATE MEN’S AND WOMEN’S Highlights Colorado wins 17th skiing crown; Buff s ice wire-to-wire win in rugged slalom conditions: In a dominant wire-to-wire win, Colorado locked up its 17th NCAA skiing title at Stowe Mountain Resort in Stowe, Vt. It’s the sixth NCAA crown the Buff s have secured during head coach Richard Rokos’ 20-year tenure, and their fi rst since 2006. Excited to once again be out from under the runner-up status it has achieved each of the past three years, Rokos noted the diff erence between winning and second is often just a bit of luck. “We came here to win, and that’s the same goal that we have every time we come to the championships,” Rokos said. “The diff erence this year is that we were able to stay healthy and all our alpine skiers fi nished both races -- most of them cleanly. You have to get lucky, you know, no matter how well you’re prepared.” The Buff s tallied an impressive 831 points throughout these championships, 80.5 points better than runner-up Utah, and 188 points ahead of third-place Dartmouth. Colorado rocketed to a commanding 46-point lead on the fi rst day of races March 9, nearly doubled it to 84.5 on March 11, and -- though relinquishing a sliver of that margin -- coolly secured the title with solid fi nishes by its alpine squads in diffi cult conditions at the slalom races March 12. After tons of snow, then rain, then more snow during the week, it was destined to be a bumpy ride on Stowe’s Mainstreet track, and there was indeed carnage in both men’s and women’s races.

  • Whistler: a Case Study of the Effects of Amenity Migration on the Resort Municipality of Whistler and Surrounding Environs
    WHISTLER: A CASE STUDY OF THE EFFECTS OF AMENITY MIGRATION ON THE RESORT MUNICIPALITY OF WHISTLER AND SURROUNDING ENVIRONS by STUART VALENTICH GRIPTON B.A., University of Calgary 2001 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in PLANNING in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA June 2006 © Stuart V. Gripton 2006 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the nature of amenity migration, its effects and related planning strategies and practices through a case study of the Resort Municipality of Whistler (RMOW) and surrounding environs. The goal of this study is to provide a descriptive overview of amenity migration in relation to the RMOW and region, primarily from the perspectives of selected key stakeholders as well as documentation from several RMOW and regional sources. For some time, the RMOW has been known as a world class destination resort and a progressive leader in various aspects of planning and sustainability. Interviews with sixteen key stakeholders revealed a range of familiarity with the concept of amenity migration and considerable knowledge about economic, social and environmental consequences. The concept of amenity migration was not used in RMOW and regional planning strategies and practices, raising some question about its conceptualization. A major effect of amenity migration was the lack of affordable housing, with subsequent local and regional effects. Significant planning measures perceived as effective included the Whistler Housing Authority, Vision 2020 and a regional growth strategy, currently under development. The study identifies the importance of a regional framework for strategic planning and the need for more research, in particular, to enable mountain communities to track their amenity migrants.

This movement was also promoted in a journal called The Independent which was edited by Washington Gladden. A major source for the history of this movement was the autobiography of Shailer Matthews, titled New Faith for Old, and other adherents of this movement included Richard Ely and Charles Sheldon. After a 1908 conference, this movement launched the (*) Men and Religion Forward campaign. Strongly critiqued by Paul Tillich and Reinhold Niebuhr, this movement was promoted in works like Christianity and the Social Crisis by Walter Rauschenbusch.
