SEBELIUS Steven Lubet∗ Clare Diegel∗∗ I. INTRODUCTION The Supreme Court litigation over the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“PPACA”) came to a conclusion in the first half of 2012, characterized by a series of surprises. The first surprise occurred when the Court scheduled the case for six hours of oral argument, spread over three days. Such an expanded argument was unprecedented in modern times, leading to much speculation that the issues would be more troublesome for the Court than many observers had previously assumed. Still, even veteran court watchers were further shocked by the combative tone of the oral argument itself, when Justices Scalia, Alito, Kennedy, and Roberts seemed to gang up on Solicitor General Donald Verrilli, who defended the PPACA on behalf of the government.

  • Gold Fever! Seattle Outfits the Klondike Gold Rush
    National Park Service Teaching with Historic Places U.S. Department of the Interior Gold Fever! Seattle Outfits the Klondike Gold Rush Gold Fever! Seattle Outfits the Klondike Gold Rush (Special Collections, University of Washington Libraries, Curtis Photo, Neg. 26368) Seattle's Pioneer Square bustled with excitement as news of a major gold strike in Canada's Yukon River valley reached the port city during the summer of 1897. Soon eager prospectors from all over the country descended on Seattle to purchase supplies and secure transportation to the far-away gold fields. Newcomers were beset with information from every corner. Hawkers offered one sales pitch after another, explaining where to find lodging, meals, gambling, and other entertainment. Outfitters tried to entice prospectors into their stores to purchase the supplies necessary for the stampede north. Anticipating large crowds, these outfitters piled merchandise everywhere, including the sidewalks in front of their stores. One clever merchant opened a mining school where greenhorns could learn the techniques of panning, sluicing, and rocking before setting out for the gold fields. Some anxious stampeders headed directly for the piers where ships were ready to sail north, joining the great migration to the Klondike gold fields. The intense bustle and commotion of the Klondike Gold Rush dramatically changed the face of Seattle. National Park Service Teaching with Historic Places U.S. Department of the Interior Gold Fever!

  • Reading List for Alaska's Glacier Bay & Inside Passage
    Reading List for Alaska’s Glacier Bay & Inside Passage August 28 – September 8, 2021 These optional resources are suggested to enhance your understanding and enjoyment of the history, unique culture, wilderness, and wildlife of Southeast Alaska. Memoir / Non-fiction Travels in Alaska - John Muir Muir’s last book includes his journals from 1879, 1880, and 1890 detailing the power the wilderness has to heal a person’s body and soul. With intimate descriptions of glaciers and wildlife, this is an essential, classic anthem on the beauty of Alaska. The Only Kayak - Kim Heacox This flowing memoir tells the rich coming-of-age story of an Idaho-born man finding his place in the world in Alaska’s rugged Glacier Bay National Park as a park ranger. Fiction Alaska: A Novel - James A Michener In classic Michener style, tenacity of both the humankind and of the natural world is chronicled in a sweeping epic beginning with Alaska’s geologic creation and its first inhabitants through World War II. The Blue Bear - Lynn Schooler A lyrical memoir of an exceptional friendship forged in the wilds of Alaska. After tragedy and heartbreak, Schooler, looking to escape his past by heading into remote Alaska, meets photographer Michio Hoshino who shares a like-minded drive to find the elusive glacier bear. Coming into the Country - John McPhee This exceptionally crafted narrative captures the essence of Alaskan culture and communities as few have done. Told in three segments, McPhee’s book is a wonderful illustration of the complexity of The Great Land’s geography and its people.
