  • Wisconsin Topic Ideas for National History Day Research
    Wisconsin Topic Ideas for National History Day Research General Topic Ideas for Students Interested in Exploring the History of Our State National History Day in Wisconsin Updated: Summer 2010 1 A Warning for All Researchers! What follows is a very GENERAL list of topic ideas for you to consider. This list is by no means complete or exhaustive of Wisconsin history. There are many, many more fantastic topics to consider! These topics are NOT THEME SPECIFIC. You will need to take a closer look at each potential topic and consider how it fits with the annual theme for NHD. This is a general list. All the topics listed in this book WILL NOT fit the annual theme. Selecting a topic from this list does not guarantee a WINNING PROJECT. Selecting a topic is just the first step. You will need to follow through with good research, a strong argument, and a clear presentation. Selecting a topic from this list isn’t the final step. Many of these topics need to be further NARROWED in order for them to be a suitable National History Day project. Why Choose a Wisconsin Topic? The National History Day program doesn’t have any requirements or give you any advantage in choosing a Wisconsin topic. Wisconsin history, however, is full of great ideas for your History Day project. It is easy to overlook the history right around us, but your National History Day project can help you to find these amazing local stories that helped shape your history! Armed with local resources and strong research, you can become an authority on your topic and your project could be more competitive than a topic that many other students across the state or nation could choose.

  • Illinois Indiana
    Comparing and Contrasting Illinois and Indiana Name: _________________________ Illinois Located in the Midwestern United States, Illinois is known as the Land of Lincoln because Abraham Lincoln made the state capital, Springfield, his home for many years before he was president. Illinois became America’s 21st state on December 3, 1818. It borders Michigan, Indiana, Iowa, Wisconsin, Missouri, and Kentucky. Its northeast coast borders Lake Michigan, making it one of the Great Lake states as well. Illinois is largely grasslands and prairies. The Mississippi River forms its eastern border and the Ohio River forms its southern border. Chicago is the largest city in Illinois and the third largest city in the entire country. It is nicknamed the “Windy City” because of the harsh winds that form off of Lake Michigan and streak through the city in winter. Chicago’s Sears Tower was once the tallest building in the world. With over 12.5 million people, Illinois is the nation’s sixth largest state by population. Its state bird, the cardinal, is also the state bird of six other states. Indiana Indiana became America’s 19th state on December 11, 1816. It is nicknamed the Hoosier State. The origin of the word “Hoosier” remains unknown, but today it refers to a citizen of Indiana and has been in use since as early as 1833. Indiana is located in the Midwestern United States and borders Michigan, Illinois, Ohio, and Kentucky. Its northwestern coast borders Lake Michigan, thus, making it one of the Great Lakes states as well. The Ohio River forms its southern border between it and Kentucky.

    Appendix 6-B: Chronology of Amtrak Service in Wisconsin May 1971: As part of its inaugural system, Amtrak operates five daily round trips in the Chicago- Milwaukee corridor over the Milwaukee Road main line. Four of these round trips are trains running exclusively between Chicago’s Union Station and Milwaukee’s Station, with an intermediate stop in Glenview, IL. The fifth round trip is the Chicago-Milwaukee segment of Amtrak’s long-distance train to the West Coast via St. Paul, northern North Dakota (e.g. Minot), northern Montana (e.g. Glacier National Park) and Spokane.

    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION OFFICE OF THE GENERAL COUNSEL January 15, 2021 Chancellor Mark Mone University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Office of the Chancellor Chapman Hall 202 2310 E. Hartford Ave Milwaukee, WI 53201 Via Electronic Mail Re: Preliminary Inquiry Regarding Possible Violations of 20 U.S.C. § 1011f Dear Chancellor Mone: Section 117 of the Higher Education Act of 1965, 20 U.S.C. § 1011f, requires the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (“UWM”) to disclose gifts, contracts, and/or restricted and conditional gifts or contracts from or with foreign sources to the U.S. Department of Education (“Department”). These reports are posted at https://studentaid.ed.gov/sa/about/data- center/school/foreign-gifts. UWM is classified as a “Carnegie Research-1” or “R-1” institution and ranked 192nd in the nation by total R&D expenditure according to data reported by the National Science Foundation. The NSF reported UWM’s 2017 R&D expenditures at $54,000,000. Carnegie R-1 institutions conduct the bulk of U.S. academic research and are collectively entrusted with billions in taxpayer funds each year. They also tend to collaborate closely with foreign sources, accounting for over eighty-five percent of all funds reported to the Department. UMW’s self-described collaboration with foreign sources includes partnership agreements with over 200 institutions worldwide and information and support online for the development of international agreements. However, UWM has apparently never filed a Section 117 report. By comparison, Auburn University-Montgomery, ranked by NSF 788th in total R&D expenditures at $430,000, reported twenty-four foreign contracts in the period from 2013 to 2017.

  • Local and Regional Democracy in Switzerland
    33 SESSION Report CG33(2017)14final 20 October 2017 Local and regional democracy in Switzerland Monitoring Committee Rapporteurs:1 Marc COOLS, Belgium (L, ILDG) Dorin CHIRTOACA, Republic of Moldova (R, EPP/CCE) Recommendation 407 (2017) .................................................................................................................2 Explanatory memorandum .....................................................................................................................5 Summary This particularly positive report is based on the second monitoring visit to Switzerland since the country ratified the European Charter of Local Self-Government in 2005. It shows that municipal self- government is particularly deeply rooted in Switzerland. All municipalities possess a wide range of powers and responsibilities and substantial rights of self-government. The financial situation of Swiss municipalities appears generally healthy, with a relatively low debt ratio. Direct-democracy procedures are highly developed at all levels of governance. Furthermore, the rapporteurs very much welcome the Swiss parliament’s decision to authorise the ratification of the Additional Protocol to the European Charter of Local Self-Government on the right to participate in the affairs of a local authority. The report draws attention to the need for improved direct involvement of municipalities, especially the large cities, in decision-making procedures and with regard to the question of the sustainability of resources in connection with the needs of municipalities to enable them to discharge their growing responsibilities. Finally, it highlights the importance of determining, through legislation, a framework and arrangements regarding financing for the city of Bern, taking due account of its specific situation. The Congress encourages the authorities to guarantee that the administrative bodies belonging to intermunicipal structures are made up of a minimum percentage of directly elected representatives so as to safeguard their democratic nature.
