  • Going Nuts in the Nutmeg State?
    Going Nuts in the Nutmeg State? A Thesis Presented to The Division of History and Social Sciences Reed College In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts Daniel Krantz Toffey May 2007 Approved for the Division (Political Science) Paul Gronke Acknowledgements Acknowledgements make me a bit uneasy, considering that nothing is done in isolation, and that there are no doubt dozens—perhaps hundreds—of people responsible for instilling within me the capability and fortitude to complete this thesis. Nonetheless, there are a few people that stand out as having a direct and substantial impact, and those few deserve to be acknowledged. First and foremost, I thank my parents for giving me the incredible opportunity to attend Reed, even in the face of staggering tuition, and an uncertain future—your generosity knows no bounds (I think this thesis comes out to about $1,000 a page.) I’d also like to thank my academic and thesis advisor, Paul Gronke, for orienting me towards new horizons of academic inquiry, and for the occasional swift kick in the pants when I needed it. In addition, my first reader, Tamara Metz was responsible for pulling my head out of the data, and helping me to consider the “big picture” of what I was attempting to accomplish. I also owe a debt of gratitude to the Charles McKinley Fund for providing access to the Cooperative Congressional Elections Study, which added considerable depth to my analyses, and to the Fautz-Ducey Public Policy fellowship, which made possible the opportunity that inspired this work.

  • Hatchet History
    Hatchet History History of the Hatchet Nickname Using the name “Hatchets” has its beginnings back in the 1920’s. Washington’s athletic tradition began in 1896 with the organization of a football team. Basketball followed in 1906. The football team had adopted “old gold and black” as their colors and they became the colors of the school. Washington High School’s athletic teams were simply known as the “Old Gold and Black”. A remnant of that era can be heard in part of the school song, “for the Old Gold and Black on high, sing Washington’s praises to the sky.” When, in 1911, Washington dropped football due to the death of a player. Basketball became the main sport at Washington High School (football would be re-instated as a varsity sport in 1935). During the 1920’s Washington had several successful basketball teams. Coach Harry Hunter led Washington to the old 16-team state finals in 1925. The dominant player of those teams was James (Bud) Gill. Gill’s father owned Gill’s Funeral Home and donated the funeral home’s cars to transport the team to out of town games. Bud Gill’s nickname (because of his father’s occupation) was “Undertaker”. Because of the use of the funeral home’s automobiles and Gill’s nickname, the team, and many people in the community, began to call themselves the “Undertakers”. To some of the more “gentile” people in the community a high school team with the name “Undertakers” did not seem appropriate. There was some pressure to find a more appropriate, or at least acceptable, nickname.

  • POLITICAL SPEECH, DOUBLESPEAK, and CRITICAL-THINKING SKILLS in AMERICAN EDUCATION by Doris E. Minin-White a Capstone Project
    POLITICAL SPEECH, DOUBLESPEAK, AND CRITICAL-THINKING SKILLS IN AMERICAN EDUCATION by Doris E. Minin-White A capstone project submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in English as a Second Language. Hamline University Saint Paul, Minnesota December, 2017 Capstone Project Trish Harvey Content Expert: Joseph White 2 My Project In this project, I will attempt to identify and analyze common cases of doublespeak in selected samples of political discourse, delivered by the two most recent U. S. presidents: Barack Obama and Donald Trump. The sample will include the transcripts from two speeches and two debates for each of the speakers. The speeches chosen will be their inaugural addresses and their presidential nomination acceptance speeches. The debates will be the first and second debates held, as part of the presidential campaign, in which the selected speakers participated. I chose to include speeches from the presidential inaugural address because they represent, perhaps, the greatest opportunity for presidents to speak with impact to the people they represent and to their fellow lawmakers who are generally present at the inauguration. I also chose the speeches they made when accepting the presidential nominations of their respective parties, because it is their opportunity to outline what their party’s platform is, what they feel are the important issues of the day, and how they intend to pursue those issues. Finally, I chose presidential debates because political discourse in this context is more spontaneous. According to the Commission on Presidential Debates (2017), a non-partisan entity that has organized presidential debates in the United States since 1988, political debates are carefully prepared and organized.
