Colonization and dispossession – by the Spanish, Por- tuguese, French, British, Dutch, Americans, and Canadians – are a con- stant theme in the Western Hemisphere since 1492. Yet Indigenous peoples have survived and continue to live in all parts of the hemisphere, seeking to recover lost rights and to determine their own futures in line with the 2007 United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.

On 4 March 1944 the Alaskan newspaper the Nome Nugget published an editorial written by sixteen-year-old local Inupiat Alberta Schenck. In her letter she publically voiced how many Alaska Natives felt in their homelands amid the employment of racial prejudice against them. “To whom it may concern: this is a long story but will have to make it as brief as possible,” she began, addressing the tensions “between natives, breeds, and whites.” In the editorial forum of the Nome Nugget the young Schenck implemented a discussion concerning discrimination toward Indigenous people, as made apparent in her use of racist language in distinguishing herself and members of her fellow Indigenous community as “natives” and “breeds.”1 An unexpected activist, Schenck worked as an usher at the Alaska Dream Theater in Nome where she took tickets and assisted patrons in locating their seats. At her job she was also responsible for maintaining the lines of segregation between seating for White patrons on the main floor and Native patrons in the balcony.

Gutachter: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Madjid Fathi 2. Gutachter: Prof. Dr. Volker Wulf Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 20.11.2014 I Meta-analysis of Knowledge Assets for Continuous Improvement of Maintenance Cost Controlling Acknowledgements My work owes its success to a great number of people. Foremost, I would like to acknowledge the contribution of my family. Without the support of my wife and colleague, Marjan, the successful development and completion of my research would not have been possible. Marjan inspires me to endure the usual hardship experienced with such long-term research. I am delighted to dedicate this work to her. My work has also taken me far away from my homeland and, therefore, has prevented me from sharing certain special moments with my parents. I hope to be a better family member and son with regards to involve- ment in family matters in the future. I would like to thank my first Ph.D. supervisor Prof. Dr.-Ing. Madjid Fathi, chair of the Institute of Knowledge-Based Systems and Knowledge Manage- ment (KBS&KM) at the University of Siegen. He has supported me in devel- oping an academic career and provided opportunities for me to become in- volved in both European- and industry-funded research projects. I would also like to thank my second Ph.D.

The movement for statehood for Alaska was long and contentious. In the last years leading up to the constitutional convention, Congress had considered a number of statehood bills with support shifting from House to Senate, but never both at once. For example, a statehood bill for Alaska was approved by the U.S. House of Representatives in 1950, but it died in the Senate. During the following Congress, a bill in the Senate died on a very close vote. Subsequently, with President Eisenhower endorsing statehood for Hawaii, a Hawaii statehood bill passed the House. In order to get the Alaska bill moving, the Senate inserted the Alaska statehood language in the Hawaii bill that had passed the House.1 That bill eventually died when Congress adjourned.2 Other bills similarly attempted to tie statehood for Alaska with that for Hawaii, but none passed. Opposition to Statehood for Alaska Reliable sources at the time and since concur that several factors caused enabling legislation for Alaska’s statehood to falter and die in Congress over a span of many years.

A slightly different version of Chapter 4 will be published in “’Picture Man’: Shoki Kayamori and the Photography of Colonial Encounter in Alaska, 1912-1941,” College Literature: A Journal of Critical Literary Studies. Thank you to the editors and special edition editors of these journals. Many people have guided and supported me throughout my dissertation process, and I’m delighted to have the opportunity to recognize them. I am grateful to my committee, exemplary scholars who challenge me to deeply engage and critically think through my project. My advisors Erika Lee and Jigna Desai have been everything I could ask for and more, both phenomenal academics who motivate me to be a better scholar, teacher, parent, and community member. Erika is a formidable historian who has provided me with invaluable training, always asking the important “why?” of my research and project, especially my contributions to Asian American studies. Erika encourages me to “embrace my inner historian,” and I would like to state for the record that she inspires me time and time again to research and write important, compelling, and creative historical narratives.

  • Land Grant History
    LAND GRANT HISTORY Several federal laws were enacted to dedicate significant acreages of land to the educational mission of the University of Alaska (UA), parallel to those dedicated to land-grant universities in other states. This was in keeping with a long-standing tradition of providing land to support education, predating even the United States Constitution. Unfortunately, a series of historical circumstances have deprived UA of most of the actual land grants originally intended for it, with the ironic result that, despite the vast areas of land within the State of Alaska, UA has been crippled, historically and presently, by the paucity of lands from which it can generate its own revenues. The largest state in the U.S. has received a smaller land grant for higher education than any other state except Delaware (90,000 acres) and Hawaii (which received no federal land at all, but did get a large monetary grant in-lieu of land). The following is a brief summary. 1862 Morrill Act. The Morrill Act was passed by Congress in 1862 under President Lincoln, and provided more than 11 million acres of land to states and territories to create a system of land grant colleges and universities. Each state received 30,000 acres for each of its Senators and Representatives, and future-admitted states were to receive the same. Proceeds from the lands were used to establish and endow the operation of at least one college in each state, to promote “the liberal and practical education of the industrial classes in the several pursuits and professions of life.” For the first time in American history, higher education became available to millions of working class men and women.
