  • 2008 OAH Annual Meeting • New York 1
    Welcome ear colleagues in history, welcome to the one-hundred-fi rst annual meeting of the Organiza- tion of American Historians in New York. Last year we met in our founding site of Minneap- Dolis-St. Paul, before that in the national capital of Washington, DC. On the present occasion wew meet in the world’s media capital, but in a very special way: this is a bridge-and-tunnel aff air, not limitedli to just the island of Manhattan. Bridges and tunnels connect the island to the larger metropolitan region. For a long time, the peoplep in Manhattan looked down on people from New Jersey and the “outer boroughs”— Brooklyn, theth Bronx, Queens, and Staten Island—who came to the island via those bridges and tunnels. Bridge- and-tunnela people were supposed to lack the sophistication and style of Manhattan people. Bridge- and-tunnela people also did the work: hard work, essential work, beautifully creative work. You will sees this work in sessions and tours extending beyond midtown Manhattan. Be sure not to miss, for example,e “From Mambo to Hip-Hop: Th e South Bronx Latin Music Tour” and the bus tour to my own Photo by Steve Miller Steve by Photo cityc of Newark, New Jersey. Not that this meeting is bridge-and-tunnel only. Th anks to the excellent, hard working program committee, chaired by Debo- rah Gray White, and the local arrangements committee, chaired by Mark Naison and Irma Watkins-Owens, you can chose from an abundance of off erings in and on historic Manhattan: in Harlem, the Cooper Union, Chinatown, the Center for Jewish History, the Brooklyn Historical Society, the New-York Historical Society, the American Folk Art Museum, and many other sites of great interest.

  • Geology of Michigan and the Great Lakes
    35133_Geo_Michigan_Cover.qxd 11/13/07 10:26 AM Page 1 “The Geology of Michigan and the Great Lakes” is written to augment any introductory earth science, environmental geology, geologic, or geographic course offering, and is designed to introduce students in Michigan and the Great Lakes to important regional geologic concepts and events. Although Michigan’s geologic past spans the Precambrian through the Holocene, much of the rock record, Pennsylvanian through Pliocene, is miss- ing. Glacial events during the Pleistocene removed these rocks. However, these same glacial events left behind a rich legacy of surficial deposits, various landscape features, lakes, and rivers. Michigan is one of the most scenic states in the nation, providing numerous recre- ational opportunities to inhabitants and visitors alike. Geology of the region has also played an important, and often controlling, role in the pattern of settlement and ongoing economic development of the state. Vital resources such as iron ore, copper, gypsum, salt, oil, and gas have greatly contributed to Michigan’s growth and industrial might. Ample supplies of high-quality water support a vibrant population and strong industrial base throughout the Great Lakes region. These water supplies are now becoming increasingly important in light of modern economic growth and population demands. This text introduces the student to the geology of Michigan and the Great Lakes region. It begins with the Precambrian basement terrains as they relate to plate tectonic events. It describes Paleozoic clastic and carbonate rocks, restricted basin salts, and Niagaran pinnacle reefs. Quaternary glacial events and the development of today’s modern landscapes are also discussed.

    LSSU Alumni Association Golden Grad Memory Book The 1940’s Keith Aldrich, 1947-48 The overall experience of just being there! Happy days!! Mary Ruth (Stahl) Allen, 1949 My memories of Tech date back to WWII when the grounds comprised Fort Brady. The focal point was the central parade grounds. Well-built brick homes were for officers and faced the parade grounds. The small jail building, complete with barred windows was just inside the gate, if my memory serves me correctly. Later, a larger building served as the Brig. As I recall, my parents took us on occasion to watch the troop’s parade. Later, when Fort Brady became “Soo Tech”, the officers’ homes housed college personnel. On the largest Building on campus in those early days, was spray painted Turner’s Haul.” Someone by that name was then the manager, or mis-manager of the men’s dorm. The painters were apprehended later and required to remove the offensive letters, of course. As I remember, no one was fined or arrested. F. Curtis Archer, 1948 Best class was Blacksmithing (Forge Shop) with George Most enjoyable was the Flight program arranged by Mr. Kemp. Flying lessons at Soo Airport flying 120 & 140 Cessnas. Baseball on the Parade Ground I had my Dad’s 14’ boat on St. Mary’s River at Doc Chambers Marina. Much fun for a bunch of us. Enjoyed being in the “Soo Country” in summer. Explored the St. Mary’s River way with friends from school. Weather was great. pg. 1 Arthur M. Arndt, 1949 I have many fine memories of my two years at the Soo Branch.
