  • 2008 Was a Highly Eventful Year for the Department of Human Resources
    From the Commissioner... Nancy T. Buckner State of Alabama Department of Human Resources S. Gordon Persons Building 50 Ripley Street P.O. Box 304000 Montgomery, Alabama 36130-4000 BOB RILEY Nancy T. Buckner Governor (334) 242-1310 Commissioner www.dhr.alabama.gov Governor Bob Riley, Chairman State Board of Human Resources Dear Governor Riley: Fiscal Year 2008 was a highly eventful year for the Department of Human Resources. The majority of programs administered by DHR saw increased activity as new initiatives and record participation presented fresh challenges for state and county staff. Major achievements were recognized at the federal level for several of the programs we administer as Alabama continued to meet and exceed federal standards. After several years of relative stability, food assistance benefits began an upward trend with monthly benefits amounting to nearly $60 million by the end of the fiscal year. The Food Assistance Division continued to demonstrate that they are among the countries best run pro- grams by qualifying for a $1.7 million bonus from the federal government for their low negative error rate of .51 percent the previous fiscal year. The Department also received a $600,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture to help streamline the state’s food assistance application process and improve service. Child Support Enforcement once again experienced record collections as $330 million was collected on behalf of dependent children. The money collected in FY 08 helped to support over 229,000 families. Alabama continued its efforts to lead the nation as one of the premier child welfare systems and was one of only five states to receive a discretionary grant by the Children’s Bureau to evaluate an effective comprehensive family assessment model.

JAFFREE DREW MCGEHRIN Spring 2013 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for baccalaureate degrees in Religious Studies and History with interdisciplinary honors in Religious Studies and History Reviewed and approved* by the following: Anne C. Rose Distinguished Professor of History and Religious Studies Thesis Supervisor On-cho Ng Professor of History, Asian Studies, and Philosophy Honors Adviser in Religious Studies Michael Milligan Director of Undergraduate Studies Head of Undergraduate History Intern Program Senior Lecturer in History Second Reader and Honors Adviser in History * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT This thesis investigates the 1985 Supreme Court decision Wallace v. Jaffree. The case originated in a lawsuit against the State of Alabama by Ishmael Jaffree, an agnostic African American who challenged Governor George Wallace and two Alabama school prayer statutes. The first, enacted in 1981, instructed public schools to allocate time during the school day for a moment of silence for “voluntary prayer.” The second, passed in 1982, instructed teachers to lead their classes in a specific prayer approved by the Alabama State Legislature. Jaffree argued that these laws violated the First Amendment rights of his children, who were students in the Mobile public school system. In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court declared the Alabama statutes unconstitutional under the Establishment Clause. The Court rejected Wallace’s states’ rights argument against the incorporation of the First Amendment.

  • The Gubernatorial Elections of 2015: Hard-Fought Races for the Open Seats by Jennifer M
    GOVERNORS The Gubernatorial Elections of 2015: Hard-Fought Races for the Open Seats By Jennifer M. Jensen and Thad Beyle Only three governors were elected in 2015. Kentucky, Louisiana and Mississippi are the only states that hold their gubernatorial elections during the year prior to the presidential election. This means that these three states can be early indicators of any voter unrest that might unleash itself more broadly in the next year’s congressional and presidential elections, and we saw some of this in the two races where candidates were vying for open seats. Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant (R) was elected to a second term, running in a state that strongly favored his political party. Both Kentucky and Louisiana have elected Democrats and Republicans to the governorship in recent years, and each race was seen as up for grabs by many political pundits. In the end, each election resulted in the governorship turning over to the other political party. Though Tea Party sentiments played a signifi- he lost badly to McConnell, he had name recog- cant role in the primary elections in Kentucky and nition when he entered the gubernatorial race as Louisiana, none of the general elections reflected an anti-establishment candidate who ran an out- the vigor that the Tea Party displayed in the 2014 sider’s campaign against two Republicans who had gubernatorial elections.

Feminist talk thr ills g ir Is, chills guys By he MOIeJa Dally EIYJIdu Sa.ff Writer Anselma Dell'Olio. Convocation guest speaker, delivered a talk Thursday on the feminist movement which appeared to win the approval rI the female mem­ bers rI the audience, but seemed to up­ set the male members. Throughout the speech when there was clapping, it was, by and large, done by women. After the program: a disgruntled man was overheard sayIng, "Talk about sexist, she sure was. I don't see how women can be taken in by that bunk." Another male student responded with, "I'm a man and there's only so much I can take." But what exactly did Ms. Dell'Olio say to divide an audience so distinctly? She began by discussing the miscon­ ceptions rI the women's movement.
