Hitchcock worked for ratifi­ cation of the Versailles Treaty, but the famous battle between President Woodrow Wilson and Senator Henry Cabot Lodge left him in the shadows.

It sought to unify the German community and to represent its political interests. The Alliance supported German language instruction and vigorously opposed prohibition and woman suffrage, both considered threats to the German lifestyle. During World War I its members’ emotional attachment to Germany came to be seen as disloyal to the United States and the German-American Alliance of Nebraska disappeared.

    Migration to the Self: Education, Political Economy, and Religious Authority in Polish Communities by Kathleen Wroblewski A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in The University of Michigan 2018 Doctoral Committee: Professor Brian Porter-Szűcs, Chair Associate Professor Robert Bain Professor Howard Brick Professor Jeffrey Veidlinger Mary Kathleen Wroblewski [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0002-5001-8829 © Kathleen Wroblewski 2018 DEDICATION For Chad and Zosia, with love ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS When Josh Cole called me to let me know I had been admitted to Michigan, he ended our conversation by asking me to inform the department as soon as I had made my decision. I laughed and told him that as UM was the only place I had applied to, I’d likely accept. While I wouldn’t necessarily recommend that unorthodox approach to others, I have no regrets. My experience at Michigan has been a joy, and I am profoundly grateful to have had the opportunity to work with a number of exceptional scholars. My committee has been supportive from start to finish. First and foremost, I need to thank my advisor, Brian Porter-Szűcs, for his mentorship over the years. Brian supervised my undergraduate honors thesis at UM, and it was this experience that convinced me I wanted to pursue a career in history. I appreciate the combination of intellectual rigor, professionalism, and compassion that Brian brings to graduate mentoring, and I’ve no doubt that I’ll draw from his strong example as I transition to my next role as assistant professor.
