  • The Homer Pittard Campus School of Mtsu and Educational Reform in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, 1930-2000
    WHEN PRACTICE GOES LOCAL: THE HOMER PITTARD CAMPUS SCHOOL OF MTSU AND EDUCATIONAL REFORM IN MURFREESBORO, TENNESSEE, 1930-2000 by Matthew T. Norwood A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in History Middle Tennessee State University August 2016 Thesis Committee: Dr. Mary Hoffschwelle, Chair Dr. Carroll Van West ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to recognize the efforts of Dr. Rita King for her help with this thesis. Dr. King is the head of the Friends of Campus School organization which seeks to preserve the history of Homer Pittard Campus School as well as raise money for the maintenance of the school building and grounds. Dr. King assisted me in obtaining names of former students and teachers of Campus School as well as their contact information for personal interviews. Their words provided much in the history of the school that could not be acquired through other means of research. Her help proved invaluable for this master’s thesis. I would also like to acknowledge those who did manage to take time out of their lives to talk to me about their experiences at Campus School. Oma McNabb, Rita King, Elizabeth Bennett, Suzanne O’Gwynne, Joan Clark Mann, Pat Nelson, and John Womack participated in separate interviews with me and told me much about their experiences at Campus School and their personal feelings about the school. John Womack unfortunately passed away about two months after his interview. I would also like to recognize those who believed in me and never gave up on me when researching and writing this thesis.

    1. Blount Mansion War of 1812 in Tennessee: 200 W. Hill Avenue, Knoxville A Driving Tour Governor Willie Blount, who served from 1809 to 1815, led Tennessee during the War of 1812. He lived in this sponsored and developed by the Center for Historic historic structure, originally the home of U.S. territorial Preservation, Middle Tennessee State University, Mur- freesboro Two hundred years ago, an international war raged across the United States of America. Thousands of American soldiers died in the conflict; the nation’s capital city was invaded, leaving both the White House and the U.S. Capitol in near ruins. An American invasion of Canada ended in failure. Defeat appeared to be certain—leaving the nation’s future in doubt—but down on the southern frontier Tennesseans fought and won major battles that turned the tide and made the reputation of a future U.S. president, Andrew Jackson. This conflict between the United States, Great Britain, governor William Blount (Willie’s older half-brother), Canada, and a score of sovereign Indian nations was called throughout the war. In 1813, Governor Blount raised the War of 1812 because the United States declared war over $37,000 and 2,000 volunteer soldiers to fight the on England in June of that year. Thousands of Tennesseans Creeks. Blount Mansion, built between 1792 and c.1830, fought with distinction in three southern campaigns: the is Knoxville’s only National Historic Landmark. 1813 Natchez campaign, the 1813–14 Creek War, and the campaign against the British in New Orleans in 1814–15.

  • The Late Mississippian Period (AD 1350-1500) - Draft
    SECTION IV: The Mississippian Period in Tennessee Chapter 12: The Late Mississippian Period (AD 1350-1500) - Draft By Michaelyn Harle, Shannon D. Koerner, and Bobby R. Braly 1 Introduction Throughout the Mississippian world this time period appears to be a time of great social change. In eastern Tennessee, Dallas Phase sites further elaborated on the Mississippian lifeway, becoming highly organized and home to political leaders. Settlements were sometimes quite extensive (i.e., the Dallas, Toqua, and Ledford Island sites with deep middens, often a palisade wall, sometimes with bastions, densely packed domestic structures, and human interments throughout the village area and also in mounds. Elsewhere in the region, there is evidence that much of West Tennessee and parts of the Cumberland-Tennessee valley were either abandoned by Mississippian societies or so fundamentally reorganized that they were rendered archaeologically invisible. This abandonment appears to be part of a larger regional trend of large portions of the Central Mississippi Valley, often referred to as the vacant quarter. A number of motives for this abandonment have been provided including the dissolution of Cahokia, increased intra- regional warfare, and environmental shifts associated with the onslaught of the Little Ice Age (Meeks 2006; Cobb and Butler 2002; Williams 1983, 1990). This two sides of the continium is important since it gives us a more microscopic glimpse of what was being played out in the larger pan-Mississippian stage. Regional and temporal refinements that are currently in progress gives us a unique perspective into the similarities and differences in which Tennessee Mississippian societies reacted to this unstable period.

  • Independence Trail Region, Known As the “Cradle of Texas Liberty,” Comprises a 28-County Area Stretching More Than 200 Miles from San Antonio to Galveston
    n the saga of Texas history, no era is more distinctive or accented by epic events than Texas’ struggle for independence and its years as a sovereign republic. During the early 1800s, Spain enacted policies to fend off the encroachment of European rivals into its New World territories west of Louisiana. I As a last-ditch defense of what’s now Texas, the Spanish Crown allowed immigrants from the U.S. to settle between the Trinity and Guadalupe rivers. The first settlers were the Old Three Hundred families who established Stephen F. Austin’s initial colony. Lured by land as cheap as four cents per acre, homesteaders came to Texas, first in a trickle, then a flood. In 1821, sovereignty shifted when Mexico won independence from Spain, but Anglo-American immigrants soon outnumbered Tejanos (Mexican-Texans). Gen. Antonio López de Santa Anna seized control of Mexico in 1833 and gripped the country with ironhanded rule. By 1835, the dictator tried to stop immigration to Texas, limit settlers’ weapons, impose high tariffs and abolish slavery — changes resisted by most Texans. Texas The Independence ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Trail ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ On March 2, 1836, after more than a year of conclaves, failed negotiations and a few armed conflicts, citizen delegates met at what’s now Washington-on-the-Brazos and declared Texas independent.
