Today is October 30th, 2020, and I will be interviewing Leonard Forsman, the Chairman of the Suquamish Tribe. My name is Alison DeRiemer, and this interview is being conducted remotely over Zoom. So, Leonard, welcome, and thank you so much for agreeing to be interviewed today. We really appreciate it. I’d just like to start, please, by getting your full name, and where and when you were born. Leonard Forsman: [0:30] Okay. My full name is Leonard Andrew Forsman, and I was born January 25, 1962 in Bremerton, Washington. Alison: [0:41] Okay, great. Can you also tell me your current location where you are today? Leonard: [0:47] I am in Suquamish, Washington, on the Port Madison Indian Reservation. Alison: [0:51] Okay. Great. Could you tell me a little bit about what you know about your Nordic ancestors, even if it’s not a lot. If you know any names, where they might have come from, where they immigrated to—if you know any of that information. Leonard: [1:10] Okay. Well, my paternal grandfather… My father was James William Forsman. His father was Alexander Forsman, who immigrated from Sweden. I don’t know a whole lot about his past, other than I believe the census records show him kind of coming via the Midwest, I believe Indiana, or something like that.

BSU got an eleven percent allocation increase for 1976-77, a total of $13.7 million. That compared to $12.3 million this year, and it is the highest percent­ age increase awarded among the three universities. The allocation still left BSU far behind the University of Idaho in total budget allocation dollars. UI received a $22.6 million allocation, compared to $21.5 million in its current budget. Thus, UI gets a five percent allocation increase. Idaho State University was awarded $15.5 million for fiscal 1976-77, a seven percent increase over the $14.4 million in its current budget.

  • Building Cold War Warriors: Socialization of the Final Cold War Generation
    BUILDING COLD WAR WARRIORS: SOCIALIZATION OF THE FINAL COLD WAR GENERATION Steven Robert Bellavia A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2018 Committee: Andrew M. Schocket, Advisor Karen B. Guzzo Graduate Faculty Representative Benjamin P. Greene Rebecca J. Mancuso © 2018 Steven Robert Bellavia All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Andrew Schocket, Advisor This dissertation examines the experiences of the final Cold War generation. I define this cohort as a subset of Generation X born between 1965 and 1971. The primary focus of this dissertation is to study the ways this cohort interacted with the three messages found embedded within the Cold War us vs. them binary. These messages included an emphasis on American exceptionalism, a manufactured and heightened fear of World War III, as well as the othering of the Soviet Union and its people. I begin the dissertation in the 1970s, - during the period of détente- where I examine the cohort’s experiences in elementary school. There they learned who was important within the American mythos and the rituals associated with being an American. This is followed by an examination of 1976’s bicentennial celebration, which focuses on not only the planning for the celebration but also specific events designed to fulfill the two prime directives of the celebration. As the 1980s came around not only did the Cold War change but also the cohort entered high school. Within this stage of this cohorts education, where I focus on the textbooks used by the cohort and the ways these textbooks reinforced notions of patriotism and being an American citizen.

  • Battlefields & Treaties
    welcome to Indian Country Take a moment, and look up from where you are right now. If you are gazing across the waters of Puget Sound, realize that Indian peoples thrived all along her shoreline in intimate balance with the natural world, long before Europeans arrived here. If Mount Rainier stands in your view, realize that Indian peoples named it “Tahoma,” long before it was “discovered” by white explorers. Every mountain that you see on the horizon, every stand of forest, every lake and river, every desert vista in eastern Washington, all of these beautiful places are part of our Indian heritage, and carry the songs of our ancestors in the wind. As we have always known, all of Washington State is Indian Country. To get a sense of our connection to these lands, you need only to look at a map of Washington. Over 75 rivers, 13 counties, and hundreds of cities and towns all bear traditional Indian names – Seattle, Tacoma, Yakima, and Spokane among them. Indian peoples guided Lewis and Clark to the Pacifi c, and pointed them safely back to the east. Indian trails became Washington’s earliest roads. Wild salmon, delicately grilled and smoked in Alderwood, has become the hallmark of Washington State cuisine. Come visit our lands, and come learn about our cultures and our peoples. Our families continue to be intimately woven into the world around us. As Tribes, we will always fi ght for preservation of our natural resources. As Tribes, we will always hold our elders and our ancestors in respect. As Tribes, we will always protect our treaty rights and sovereignty, because these are rights preserved, at great sacrifi ce, ABOUT ATNI/EDC by our ancestors.

  • Syllable Structure in Umatilla Sahaptin* Tymoteusz Alan Chrzanowski
    Syllable Structure in Umatilla Sahaptin* Tymoteusz Alan Chrzanowski A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in Linguistics Swarthmore College December 2018 Abstract Umatilla Sahaptin is a Shaptian language spoken in North-Eastern Oregon by the Umatilla tribe. While it has some documentation, such as a dictionary and sketch grammar, there are still acknowledged gaps in the literature. The purpose of this thesis is to fill one of those gaps with a description of syllable structure. To do this I compare data gathered from speakers of Umatilla with published accounts of sylla­ ble structure in the mutually intelligible sister language Yakima. After establishing what is meant by syllable structure and what is known about Yakima, I discuss the data I gathered. Using word list and sentence elicitations, stories, poems, and songs I conclude that Umatilla syllable structure is very similar to Yakima's, with some differences, namely in maximal margins, minimal words, and licensing of sonority sequence defying clusters. 'I would like to thank my consultants, Thomas Morningowl and Mildred Quaemptes, since it was their time and knowledge that made this work possible at all. I would also like to thank the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla, for the privilege of working with the tribe, specifically the Language Program, the Education Commission, and the Board of Trustees. In particular I would like to thank Modesta Minthorn, for her help and guidance through the process of securing per­ mission for my work and scheduling time to do it. I would also like to thank the Eugene M.

  • Introduction
    Wenatchee Urban Area Comprehensive Plan 2017 Welcome to the City of Wenatchee Comprehensive Plan... a document setting forth a vision, goals and policies for our future! The city, along with the nation and world, is going through massive demographic, social, and economic changes. The technological revolution combined with the millennial generation entering the workforce, is changing cities beyond our imaginations. Our nation’s cities are where the majority of people live, work, and play. Over 75% of our gross economic activity occurs in cities today. Furthermore, cities are innovation centers for this revolution where ideas creating value and improving lives are developed every day. The role for cities to empower and harness this activity has never been greater and as such, it is the goal of Wenatchee to provide an environment in which people can maximize their life outcomes. Sometimes, this means getting out of the way by removing barriers, and sometimes this means taking specific actions to support this objective. This Comprehensive Plan is based on this core understanding of our changing world for this period of change may have a much greater impact on people in terms of way of life than the industrial revolution. Let’s work together to leverage this opportunity of change to make the City of Wenatchee an amazing city of the future. INTRODUCTION The City of Wenatchee Urban Area establishes specific goals and outlines Comprehensive Plan is a planning and polices that are implemented in codes such visioning document prepared by staff under as the zoning code, subdivision code, the direction and guidance of local elected Shoreline Master Program, and officials, boards and commissions, and development standards which address citizens and business owners, consistent transportation systems, infrastructure, code with the Washington State Growth enforcement and housing programs among Management Act (GMA) to ensure orderly others.
