What's Happened to the Family Doctor? Ask Dwight Michael '78, M.D Summer GETTYSBURG 1994 What's Happened to the Family Doctor? Ask Dwight Michael '78, M.D. ome older readers will recognize the subject of the Norman Rockwell illustration on the cover. He (it was always he) was the kindly family doctor who had known you ever since you were "so high"—and knew the rest of your family, too. SHe was a friendly, caring presence during times of sickness or trouble, and on joyous occasions, as well. This wonderful doctor knew when it was important to examine a little girl's doll during an office visit. Not only that, he made house calls. He was a beloved and respected figure in the community. Is today's family doctor anything like him? Or has he completely vanished—blown away by threats of malpractice suits, high-tech medicine, overcrowded waiting rooms, and the higher status accorded specialists? To find the answers, Gettysburg chronicles a day in the life of Dwight Michael '78 M.D., who shares his views about being a family doctor, as well as his concerns about health-care reform. In other news, several Gettysburg College officials recently testified at a Congressional hearing on the exchange of land between the National Park Service and the College. The hearing received considerable media attention, but failed to clarify some of the issues, as the College had hoped. We present here a short but precise summary of the dispute. We hope you'll find the articles interesting, and—as always—we welcome your comments.

  • (July-November 1863) Lincoln's Popularit
    Chapter Thirty-one “The Signs Look Better”: Victory at the Polls and in the Field (July-November 1863) Lincoln’s popularity soared after the victories at Gettysburg, Vicksburg, and Port Hudson. His old friend from Illinois, Jesse W. Fell, reflected the changed public mood. In August, Fell told Lyman Trumbull that during the early stages of the war, “I did not like some things that were done, and many things that were not done, by the present Administration.” Along with most “earnest, loyal men, I too was a grumbler, because, as we thought, the Gov't. moved too slow.” But looking back, Fell acknowledged that “we are not now disposed to be sensorious [sic] to the ‘powers that be,’ even among ourselves.” To the contrary, “it is now pretty generally conceded, that, all things considered, Mr. Lincoln's Administration has done well.” Such “is the general sentiment out of Copperhead Circles.” Lincoln had been tried, and it was clear “that he is both honest and patriotic; that if he don't go forward as fast as some of us like, he never goes backwards.”1 To a friend in Europe, George D. Morgan explained that the president “is very popular and good men of all sides seem to regard him as the man for the place, for they see what one cannot see abroad, how difficult the position he has to fill, to keep 1 Fell to Lyman Trumbull, Cincinnati, 11 August 1863, Trumbull Papers, Library of Congress. 3378 Michael Burlingame – Abraham Lincoln: A Life – Vol. 2, Chapter 31 the border States quiet, to keep peace with the different generals, and give any satisfaction to the radicals.”2 One of those Radicals, Franklin B.

  • The Transmutation of Lee's Plan at Gettysburg
    FROM DISASTER TO BRILLIANCE: THE TRANSMUTATION OF LEE’S PLAN AT GETTYSBURG John D. Wedo and Terrence L. Salada It is fitting to start by describing a battle in the American Civil War (ACW) in which the defender stayed behind defenses on elevated ground and waited for the opposing army to attack. When the attack began, it was repelled repeatedly at great loss. The defender maintained a defensive stance throughout the battle even when the attacking army was defeated before him. The defeated general collected his army and departed with no interference or attempted interference from the defender. The victorious general is lauded for his good sense in maintaining his position, whereas the defeated general is derided for attacking such a formidable position. The best example of such a tactical disaster was Fredericksburg, Virginia, fought on December 17, 1862, a Confederate victory. Except for the last sentence, it could also describe Gettysburg. But why are the historical opinions of the generals different for Gettysburg? Professor Warren W. Hassler, Jr., expressed the same thought: “There is probably no other battle," writes General Francis A. Walker, "of which men are so prone to think and speak without a conscious reference to the commanding general of the victorious party, as they are regarding Gettysburg.” Why, it might be asked, does this curious phenomenon exist regarding the commander of the triumphant Union Army of the Potomac, Major General George Gordon Meade?1 The measure of the battle is statistical, and the numbers should speak for themselves, but often do not register. On July 1, 2, and 3, 1863, the Army of Northern Virginia of General Robert E.

  • Lee, Honor, and the Confederacy
    1 Andy Haugen 5-8-11 History Senior Thesis Lee, Honor, and the Confederacy Honor played a vital role in southern culture and was not taken lightly, for one of the reasons the South seceded was that southerners believed their honor had been insulted. The traditions of the South demanded control of land and the independence to act for the good of family and community. The South began to feel the pressure of servitude to political forces that denounced practices like slavery, particularly in debates over the spread of slavery in western territories. Secession, then, can be understood as an effort to restore southern honor.1 One of Virginia’s leading gentlemen, Robert E. Lee, joined the Confederacy in 1861. With him, he brought not only his extraordinary military talents but an unwavering sense of honor and virtue that he possessed not only in wartime but throughout his entire life. For Lee, honor required action for the overall public good. Lee had devoted thirty years of his life to the U.S. Army yet during the Civil War he forfeited his Arlington Plantation along the Potomac River, had sons and relatives captured, and suffered physical hardships himself. If the Confederate cause was to succeed, Lee felt that private citizens and public figures would have to cooperate, sacrifice, and accept their duty. During the Civil War, the Confederate States of America learned quickly that the many independently functioning factions within their ranks did not have a cohesive intent or purpose. While Lee depended on honor and virtue to sustain the South, the very concept was virtually lost in the face of war.

  • From the Desk of the President January 2019 – Edition
    January 2019 – Edition #74 From the Desk of the President Greetings, colleagues! I hope the first few weeks of engaging students in and out of the classroom have been both energizing and satisfying. In addition, I hope you will kindly consider inviting me to any of your classes so I can celebrate you and the students, when appropriate. Please contact Kristin Graeser at [email protected] with the class name, date and time of your request. Since we have returned from the holiday break, I have been involved in numerous national, state and other discussions with many of our elected officials, their staff members and others. Most of these discussions – including those I have with local leaders – center around the changing demographics of our area, the traditional and non-traditional higher education competition encroaching in our service region, the greater use of technology in and out of the classroom and the increasing costs of doing business. Information about other actions and/or discussion topics I have engaged in follows. National At the national level, some legislative priorities I am discussing and working on include: 1. Extending Pell Grants eligibility to short-term training programs at higher education institutions like HACC. I am also supporting the extension of Pell support to incarcerated learners. Also, because our learners don’t always complete college in a prescribed timeline, I would like to see lifetime Pell eligibility increase to 14 semesters 2. Adjusting to a possible 7-percent reduction in domestic discretionary spending for a variety of higher education initiatives, possibly reversing the gains we made during the last congressional session 3.

  • The Gettysburg Campaign: a Contemporary Account by Whitelaw Reid
    I The Gettysburg Campaign: A Contemporary Account by Whitelaw Reid Assignment 1863, June 18 From Philadelphia “Pennsylvania invaded!” “Harrisburg expected to fall!” “Lee’s whole army moving through Chambersburg in three grand columns of attack!” And so on for quantity. Such were the pleasing assurances that began to burst on us in the West on Tuesday morning. All Pennsylvania seemed to be quivering in spasms over the invasion. Pittsburgh suspended business and went to fortifying; veracious gentlemen along the railroad lines and in little villages of the interior rushed to the telegraph offices and did their duty to their country by giving their fears to the wings of the lightning. I was quietly settling myself in comfortable quarters at the Neil House to look on at the counterpart of last week’s Vallandigham Convention1 when dispatches reached me, urging an immediate 1 Reid’s reference is to the Ohio state Democratic convention, which convened in Columbus on June 11 and nominated Clement L. Vallandigham for the gover- norship. A leader of the northern Peace Democrats (often called Copperheads), Vallandigham had been arrested for treason on May 5, 1863, and, following banish- ment to Confederate lines, took up exile in Canada that July. The peace movement in the North gained thousands of adherents in the spring of 1863. 99781405181129_4_001.indd781405181129_4_001.indd 1 99/9/2008/9/2008 88:02:01:02:01 PPMM 2 Two Witnesses at Gettysburg departure for the scene of action. I was well convinced that the whole affair was an immense panic, but the unquestioned movements of Lee and Hooker gave certain promise to something; and besides, whether grounded or groundless, the alarm of invasion was a subject that demanded attention.2 And so, swallowing my disgust at the irregular and unauthorized demonstrations of the rebels, I hastened off.

  • Eisenhower, Dwight D.: Post-Presidential Papers, 1961-69
    EISENHOWER, DWIGHT D.: POST-PRESIDENTIAL PAPERS, 1961-69 1968 PRINCIPAL FILE Series Description The 1968 Principal File contains the main office files of Dwight D. Eisenhower’s Gettysburg Office. The series is divided into three subseries. The first thirty-six boxes comprise a subject file arranged by categories, such as appointments, Eisenhower Center, foreign affairs, gifts, invitations, memberships, messages, political affairs, public relations, and trips. The alphabetical subseries occupies the next eleven boxes, and is arranged by the name of the individual or organization corresponding with Eisenhower. The final four boxes contain the “Bulk File” subseries, which has printed materials and oversized items. In 1968 Dwight Eisenhower suffered heart attacks in April and August, and he spent a number of months in the hospital, first at March Air Force Base in California and later at Walter Reed in Washington, D.C. His health problems greatly affected his ability to keep up his correspondence and limited the number of appointments he could keep. The series contains a large number of get-well letters and cards. Many requests for endorsements, special messages, autographs, gifts, and letters, as well as invitations to various events, were turned down by his office staff due to Eisenhower’s ill health and the limits placed on his activities by his doctors. Although Ike’s ability to travel and participate in many events was restricted by his growing health concerns, he continued to communicate with many prominent people on vital issues of the day. His correspondence frequently contains comments on U.S. foreign policy, particularly on Vietnam and the Middle East.
