  • Railway Employee Records for Colorado Volume Iii
    RAILWAY EMPLOYEE RECORDS FOR COLORADO VOLUME III By Gerald E. Sherard (2005) When Denver’s Union Station opened in 1881, it saw 88 trains a day during its gold-rush peak. When passenger trains were a popular way to travel, Union Station regularly saw sixty to eighty daily arrivals and departures and as many as a million passengers a year. Many freight trains also passed through the area. In the early 1900s, there were 2.25 million railroad workers in America. After World War II the popularity and frequency of train travel began to wane. The first railroad line to be completed in Colorado was in 1871 and was the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad line between Denver and Colorado Springs. A question we often hear is: “My father used to work for the railroad. How can I get information on Him?” Most railroad historical societies have no records on employees. Most employment records are owned today by the surviving railroad companies and the Railroad Retirement Board. For example, most such records for the Union Pacific Railroad are in storage in Hutchinson, Kansas salt mines, off limits to all but the lawyers. The Union Pacific currently declines to help with former employee genealogy requests. However, if you are looking for railroad employee records for early Colorado railroads, you may have some success. The Colorado Railroad Museum Library currently has 11,368 employee personnel records. These Colorado employee records are primarily for the following railroads which are not longer operating. Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad (AT&SF) Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad employee records of employment are recorded in a bound ledger book (record number 736) and box numbers 766 and 1287 for the years 1883 through 1939 for the joint line from Denver to Pueblo.

Scripps School of Journalism and the College of Communication by _________________________________________ Patrick Washburn Professor of Journalism _________________________________________ Greg Shepherd Interim Dean, College of Communication iv Acknowledgments Were it not for the guidance, encouragement, and good cheer of my advisor and thesis committee chair, Patrick Washburn, this thesis would not exist. Many thanks also to Joe Bernt, who like Pat took interest in the Scanlan’s project from the very beginning, and pointed me in interesting and fruitful directions; and Bill Reader, who provided good advice about where to take this project—and my life—after completing my degree. I must thank Tom Hodson; without his efforts on my behalf, I surely would have left Scripps for another program. I would also like to thank my friends and colleagues Andrew Huebner, Andy Smith, and Betsy Vereckey for taking interest in the project, editing the manuscript at various stages, and sharing ideas. Finally, a very special thank you to my parents. Their support—financial and otherwise—made this possible. v Table of Contents Page Chapter 1: Off the Ramparts and to the Barricades……………………………………1 Chapter 2: Pay the Buck and Turn the Page………………………………………...18 Chapter 3: “You Trust Your Mother But You Cut the Cards”…………………….37 Chapter 4: The Magazine the President Hated So Much…………………………..58 Chapter 5: Guerilla Warfare in the U.S.A.

    Make Yourself Heard! Friday, March 18, 2016 1:00-4:00 PM Marriott Newport Beach Hotel & Spa In the rapidly changing healthcare environment, the need for NPs to be effective public speakers is more critical than ever. This interactive session will motivate NPs to improve their public speaking skills by 1) reviewing why NPs need effective presentation skills, 2) teaching effective public-speaking skills, and 3) providing an opportunity to practice in a safe, fun environment. The presenters will review tips for effective public speaking and model behaviors that will enable participants to make their next presentations better than their last. Workshop participants will receive pre-session materials to assist them in workshop preparation. During the workshop, participants will use strategies learned to develop a 5-minute presentation on a topic of their choosing; and receive feedback from facilitators and peers. At the end of this session, participants will be able to: Organize a presentation with particular emphasis on an effective opening and a strong closing. Demonstrate at least 3 skills of effective presentations. Create and deliver an effective 5-minute presentation. Constructively critique the presentations of peer participants. Discuss application of techniques learned in the session to create and deliver their next presentation more effectively.
