Louisiana at Magonroe Azinfalle 2013 The THE MAGAZINE OF THE UNIVERSITY OF LOUISIANA AT MagONROE azinFALLe 2013 ULM plans to catapult into a phase of modern innovation, University of economic feasibility, and creative restructuring. LOUISIANA THE PLAN FOR THE FUTURE at Monroe FROM THE PRESIDENT T he University of Louisiana at Monroe lauds its academic and athletic programs, its serene and scenic campus, and its success as an institution of higher learning, but ULM has proven itself more than a location on Bayou DeSiard. We are a fluid and evolving community, welcoming new Warhawks into the flock and preparing well trained and dedicated graduates every year. This edition of the ULM Magazine highlights many of these new faces and former graduates. As we greet new and exciting members of the ULM team including the new Athletic Director Brian Wickstrom and Director of Alumni Affairs Devin Girod, we also remember those who have attended ULM and found success beyond our campus. Some remain active members in the local community and contribute to the northeast Louisiana workforce, such as Eric Liew and his wife Linda Pruett. Many Warhawks, such as the White family, send generations of their sons and daughters through our university, entrusting ULM with the education of their children year after year. The university faces change and adaptation. This year, we have collaborated to envision two separate but symbiotic plans for ULM’s growth: the campus Facility Master Plan, to guide future construction and renovations of our campus facilities, and the Strategic Plan, to outline the future direction of the overall institution. With these roadmaps in hand, ULM prepares to face any changes in the education and economic landscapes and to ensure success regardless of those changes. Keeping these changes in mind – particularly those in the economic landscape – ULM has launched its first-ever comprehensive fundraising campaign. “SOAR: Taking the University of Louisiana at Monroe to New Heights” seeks a working goal to raise $54.233 million. With “SOAR,” I ask supporters of the Warhawk family to invest in the present and the future of our great institution, focusing specifically on the advancement of student success, of opportunities for innovative academics, of ULM athletic programs, and of renovations and construction. A community built on education requires a thirst for knowledge and constant renewal. With “SOAR,” the Master Plan, and the Strategic Plan, ULM readies itself as never before to welcome the changes required of us – as eagerly as we welcome new students and keep long-time supporters, alums, and friends in our thoughts. As you read the ULM Magazine, I urge you to remember the best experiences you have had with your university. I ask that you continue to assist us in our efforts to thrive, and advance the future of our region through support of education. Nick J.

  • U.S. President's Committee for Hungarian Refugee Relief
    DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER LIBRARY ABILENE, KANSAS U.S. PRESIDENT’S COMMITTEE FOR HUNGARIAN REFUGEE RELIEF: Records, 1957 A67-4 Compiled by Roland W. Doty, Jr. William G. Lewis Robert J. Smith 16 cubic feet 1956-1957 September 1967 INTRODUCTION The President’s Committee for Hungarian Refugee Relief was established by the President on December 12, 1956. The need for such a committee came about as a result of the United States’ desire to take care of its fair share of the Hungarians who fled their country beginning in October 1956. The Committee operated until May, 1957. During this time, it helped re-settle in the United States approximately 30,000 refugees. The Committee’s small staff was funded from the Special Projects Group appropriation. In its creation, the Committee was assigned the following duties and objectives: a. To assist in every way possible the various religious and other voluntary agencies engaged in work for Hungarian Refugees. b. To coordinate the efforts of these agencies, with special emphasis on those activities related to resettlement of the refugees. The Committee also served as a focal point to which offers of homes and jobs could be forwarded. c. To coordinate the efforts of the voluntary agencies with the work of the interested governmental departments. d. It was not the responsibility of the Committee to raise money. The records of the President’s Committee consists of incoming and outgoing correspondence, press releases, speeches, printed materials, memoranda, telegrams, programs, itineraries, statistical materials, air and sea boarding manifests, and progress reports. The subject areas of these documents deal primarily with requests from the public to assist the refugees and the Committee by volunteering homes, employment, adoption of orphans, and even marriage.

    State of Utah Federal Funds Commission Economic Risk Analysis Prepared by: Kevin D. Freeman, CFA Freeman Global Holdings, LLC January 2016 Copyright © 2016 Freeman Global Holdings, LLC The Utah Federal Funds Commission retains a non-exclusive but unrestricted and perpetual right to the use and ownership of this RISK ANALYSIS as outlined in the contract with Freeman Global Holdings, LLC ECONOMIC RISK ANALYSIS 3 Freeman Global Holdings, LLC THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY BLANK ECONOMIC RISK ANALYSIS 1 Freeman Global Holdings, LLC PURPOSE The purpose of this effort was described as Risk Analysis in the contract and legislative language. Risk Analysis means an economic risk analysis that: a) Identifies the most likely and substantial risk that could cause the state of Utah to experience a reduction in the amount or value of federal funds it receives; b) Assesses, for each identified risk, the probability that the risk will actually occur; c) Assesses the direct and indirect impacts to the state of Utah, given the occurrence of each identified risk, including the amount or value of the reduction in the federal funds to the state; and d) Identifies and recommends methods that state can employ to avoid, minimize, and monitor the impacts of each identified risk. Please note that we have categorized risks by type and provided a subjective estimate of probability. The list is compiled based on judgment rather than modeling or other methods. This effort is not intended to be predictive as none of the risks identified may come to fruition. The purpose is, however, to identify potentially catastrophic risks and describe potential impacts with a cursory review of possible mitigation opportunities.
