  • Of Pardons, Politics and Collar Buttons: Reflections on the President's Duty to Be Merciful
    PRESIDENT'S DUTY TO BE MERCIFUL OF PARDONS, POLITICS AND COLLAR BUTTONS: REFLECTIONS ON THE PRESIDENT'S DUTY TO BE MERCIFUL Margaret Colgate Love* [Pardon] has never been crystallized into rigid rules. Rather, its function has been to break rules. It has been the safety valve by which harsh, unjust, or unpopular results of formal rules could be corrected.1 INTRODUCTION Few provisions in the Constitution are as misunderstood and underestimated as the President's power to pardon.2 Most people today associate pardons with politics and controversy, and do not know that for much of our nation's history the pardon power was exercised regularly and without fanfare to give relief to ordinary people convicted of garden-variety federal crimes. Once an integral part of the justice system, pardon is considered anachronistic in an age devoted to rules and wary of discretion, a vestige of a simpler time whose occasional exercise is either capricious or pointless, or both. Indeed, until quite recently the prevailing view among criminal justice practitioners and philosophers was that the time had come for pardon "silently to fade away — like *Lecturer in Law, Columbus School of Law, The Catholic University of America. I wish to thank Kathleen Dean Moore for her comments on an earlier draft of this article. Many of the opinions expressed in this article and some of its background information are the product of my seven years' service as Pardon Attorney in the Department of Justice, from 1990 to 1997. 1 3 U.S. DEP'T OF JUSTICE, THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S SURVEY OF RELEASE PROCEDURES: PARDON 295 (1939) [hereinafter SURVEY OF RELEASE PROCEDURES].

  • Instilling an Ethic of Leadership at Fisk University in the 1950S
    Journal of College and Character Volume 2, Issue 2 2001 Article 1 Instilling an Ethic of Leadership at Fisk University in the 1950s Marybeth Gasman∗ ∗Georgia State University Copyright c 2001 by the authors. All rights reserved. http://journals.naspa.org/jcc Instilling an Ethic of Leadership at Fisk University in the 1950s Marybeth Gasman Abstract In many cases, student activism on college campuses stems from alienation – alienation of one generation from another, alienation of students from administration. The atmosphere in Nashville, Tennessee, at Fisk University during the early 1950s included neither of these ingredients. Most students admired their professors and respected the University president. In the case of Fisk, activism grew out of a shared sense of values and demonstrated leadership – as well as a response to outside oppression. This leadership and these values were passed on to students by Fisk’s charismatic president, Charles S. Johnson. The purpose of this historical research is to explore the approach to activism that Charles S. Johnson advocated and instilled in the students at Fisk University. How did Johnson develop his values and convictions? On which principles were they based? How did he pass them on to others? And, how can Johnson’s example help today’s college presidents contribute to a renewed sense of activism among their students? Through the use of archival materials, interviews, and secondary sources, I will highlight Johnson’s “sidelines” approach and discuss his student’s reactions to it. Further, I will explore their own approaches to activism – that in their words ”were heavily influenced by their Fisk experiences.” Instilling an Ethic of Leadership at Fisk University in the 1950s Marybeth Gasman is Assistant Professor of Higher Education in the Educational Policy Studies Department at Georgia State University in Atlanta, Georgia.

  • Scrutinizing Federal Electoral Qualifications
    Scrutinizing Federal Electoral Qualifications DEREK T. MULLER* Candidates for federal office must meet several constitutional qualifications. Sometimes, whether a candidate meets those qualifications is a matter of dispute. Courts and litigants often assume that a state has the power to include or exclude candidates from the ballot on the basis of the state’s own scrutiny of candidates’ qualifications. Courts and litigants also often assume that the matter is not left to the states but to Congress or another political actor. But those contradictory assumptions have never been examined, until now. This Article compiles the mandates of the Constitution, the precedents of Congress, the practices of states administering the ballot, and judicial precedents. It concludes that states have no role in evaluating the qualifications of congressional candidates—the matter is reserved to the people and to Congress. It then concludes that while states have the power to scrutinize qualifications for presidential candidates, they are not obligated to do so under the Constitution. If state legislatures choose to exercise that power, it comes at the risk of ceding reviewing power to election officials, partisan litigants, and the judiciary. The Article then offers a framework for future litigation that protects the guarantees of the Constitution, the rights of the voters, and the authorities of the sovereigns.

Rector papers (MSS 76, 3088, PG HSP: 269) 1 The Historical Society of Pennsylvania Thelma McDaniel collection Collection 3063 Thelma McDaniel Collection, 1935-1989 6 boxes, 1 flat file, 3.5 lin. feet Collection 3063 Abstract Thelma McDaniel was a collector of the radical literature of the civil rights, black power, and communist movements in the United States and African solidarity movements abroad. As a resident of Philadelphia, she collected a variety of documents from mostly local organizations, including flyers; pamphlets; and newspapers expressing the sentiments, attitudes, philosophies, strategies, and tactics of these various movements and participating groups and organizations. Although there is little information on McDaniel’s life story or her participation in the activities of the civil rights and black power movements, her collection documents the socio-cultural and political dynamics of the African American and multiracial struggles throughout the country. This collection is rich in documenting the on-the-ground activities of the organizing that took place primarily in Philadelphia, as well as other parts of the United States and Africa. Background note The 1940s post-war period in African American communities saw an increase in concerns for workers’ rights, which linked African American national and local politics with the political agenda of the Communist Party.
