More than 600 acres of open prairie and $300,000 pledged by a group of Dallas citizens secured the university for Dallas, and it was chartered as Southern Methodist University. In appreciation of the city’s support, the first building to be constructed on the campus was named Dallas Hall. It remains the centerpiece and symbol of SMU. When the University opened in 1915, it consisted of two buildings, 706 students, a 35-member faculty, and total assets of $636,540. The original schools of SMU were the College of Arts and Sciences, the School of Theology, and the School of Music. SMU is owned by the South Central Jurisdiction of the United Methodist Church. The first charge of its founders, however, was that it become a great university, not necessarily a great Methodist university. From its founding, SMU has been nonsectarian in its teaching and committed to the values of academic freedom and open inquiry. Today, Southern Methodist University offers a comprehensive curriculum through Dedman College – the college of humanities and sciences – and six schools: Meadows School of the Arts, Edwin L. Cox School of Business, School of Engineering, Perkins School of Theology, Dedman School of Law, and Annette Caldwell Simmons School of Education and Human Development.

RO G E R DENISON Any opinions expressed in this memoir are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Academy of Sciences. Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 1959 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON D.C. EVERETTE LEE DEGOLYER October g, 1886-December 14, BY A. RODGER DENISON F FEW MEN can it be said that they lived at the right time—that O they brought to the problems and the developments of their era precisely the right combination of intelligence, foresight, and judgment—that they brought to their industry the proper balance of pioneering, aggressiveness, and timing in order to make the maxi- mum effective contribution to it and thus leave the world richer in treasure and in ideas for their having lived. Such a man was Everette Lee DeGolyer. Born in 1886 in a sod house in Kansas on the outer fringe of the expanding agricultural frontier of that day, he lived to build a fine mansion in Texas and to see this new agricultural frontier become a producer of vast mineral wealth and a contributor, in a substantial way, to the fabrication and manufacture of goods. He was attracted to the science of geology at the very beginning of its application to the art of prospecting for oil. Starting with his own simple surface examination of the clues to oil deposits, he became the leader in bringing into use the classical earth instruments, the torsion balance and the seismograph, in the underground search for pe- troleum.

  • The Panama Route in the United States Civil War

    The Panama Route in the United States Civil War

    Controlling the California Gold Steamers: The Panama Route in the United States Civil War Neil P Chatelain University of Louisiana-Monroe At the outset of the United States Civil War, both sides worked to build mili- tary and naval strength. For the North and the South, hundreds of thousands of soldiers enlisted, supplies were manufactured and stockpiled, and ships were hur- riedly converted from merchantmen into gunboats. Fighting the war would take more than the men and material needed on the battlefield, however. Sufficient funding was essential to maintain flow of supplies and payment of soldiers, both North and South. Multiple avenues of financing the war emerged, ranging from cotton speculation by the Confederacy to wheat exports and public bonds issued by the Union. Hard currency, in the form of precious metals such as gold and silver, remained in high demand. The Union’s gold supply was crucial to its eventual victory and a lack of such in the treasury of the Confederacy hindered its ability to finance its own war effort. Rather quickly, the largest gold transpor- tation route became a military target of significance. For four years, both sides waged a multi-pronged campaign to control the Panama route, the collection of shipping lanes from New England to Panama to California where millions in gold was transported each year. Control of the Panama route and its flow of gold steamers held the potential to tip the financial balance of the United States Civil War, resulting in a campaign of Confederate strikes countered by Union naval and diplomatic interventions focused on protecting both the shipping lanes and the gold steamers plying them.

Hal Williams. In classes I took under Hal, I found his enthusiasm and passion for history infectious. When it came time to select the subject for my thesis, I was compelled that the topic had to be the United States Synthetic Fuels Corporation (SFC), where I had worked from 1980-82, and that Hal must be my advisor. That academic paper was completed in 1999 for the MA degree, but it was obvious to me at that time that I had barely scratched the surface of the subject. It seemed to me a superb dissertation topic, with much remaining to be discovered.

    BRITISH AND US INTERVENTION IN THE VENEZUELAN OIL INDUSTRY A CASE STUDY OF ANGLO-US RELATIONS 1941-1948 A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Mark Seddon Department of History University of Sheffield July 2014 Abstract This thesis analyses British and US government intervention in the Venezuelan oil industry between the years 1941 and 1948 as a case study of Anglo-US relations. During the Second World War, Britain was entirely reliant on imports for its oil needs and Venezuela became a vital source of supply. Concurrently, US government officials were concerned that their domestic oil reserves would soon be exhausted and they perceived Venezuela as an important future supplier. As such, British and US policy-makers were inclined to intervene when it seemed as though their access to Venezuelan oil was threatened. Such a threat materialised as, during the 1940s, Venezuelan politics became characterised by popular demand for economic reform and dramatic regime change. However, British and US officials came into conflict as they sought to further their independent and often conflicting policies in Venezuela. Indeed, the Anglo-US wartime and Cold War alliance did not preclude disputes from arising between the two governments in matters relating to oil and Latin America. In order to defend their interests in Venezuelan oil, Whitehall and Washington developed intimate ties with privately-owned companies operating in the country. This thesis elucidates the role of state-private sector interaction within foreign relations and the effect of this dynamic on British and US policy towards Venezuela. It argues that multinational oil companies had the capacity to significantly influence events and their relationships with national governments played an important role within international politics.
