At trial, Adams argued that the & Educational Outreach Award 2007 - 2010 deaths of the colonists were brought about not by the soldiers, Bruce Koehler, President O but by the actions of the mob itself. He argued that the British -XGJH0DULD6DODV0HQGR]D President-Elect soldiers were acting in self-defense and that whatever the passions or wishes of the Randolph Grambling, Vice President jurors, “they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” All but two of the soldiers /DXUD(QULTXH]Treasurer -XGJH$OHMDQGUR*RQ]DOH], Secretary were acquitted. Adams certainly knew there would be repercussions, and indeed, Chantel Crews, Immediate Past President Adams lost a significant portion of his practice because of his representation. Why did Adams agree to represent the British? According to David McCullough in his %RDUG0HPEHUV Teresa Beltran book John Adams, Adams accepted the representation because “no man in a free Judge Linda Chew country should be denied their right to counsel and a fair trial.” As you can see, Mark Dore Lawyers have a proud tradition of serving those for whom the public has nothing Judge Eduardo Gamboa Myer Lipson but derision and disdain. 'is tradition reaches back before the founding of our Denise Butterworth country, and continues today, as reflected in the order adopting the Texas Lawyers Kenneth Krohn Creed, which notes that “as members of a learned art, we pursue a common calling Raymond Martinez Alberto Mesta in the spirit of public service.” Jennifer Vandenbosch Yvonne Acosta It is this tradition of John Adams to which lawyers should aspire.

    CONSTRUCTING COMANCHE: IMPERIALISM, PRINT CULTURE, AND THE CREATION OF THE MOST DANGEROUS INDIAN IN ANTEBELLUM AMERICA A THESIS IN History Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF ARTS by JOSHUA CHRISTOPHER MIKA B.A., UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, 2000 B.A., UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, 2006 M.L.I.S.c., UNIVERSITY OF HAWAII AT MĀNOA, 2012 Kansas City, Missouri, 2018 © 2018 JOSHUA CHRISTOPHER MIKA ALL RIGHTS RESERVED CONSTRUCTING COMANCHE: IMPERIALISM, PRINT CULTURE, AND THE CREATION OF THE MOST DANGEROUS INDIAN IN ANTEBELLUM AMERICA Joshua Christopher Mika, Candidate for the Master of Arts Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2018 ABSTRACT Anglo-American print sources during the antebellum era framed the Comanche as “the most powerful” or “the most dreaded” Indian whom settlers encountered on the frontier. This research examines the pivotal role that American print culture played in constructing dubious stereotypes of Comanche Indians in American intellectual and popular culture during the nineteenth century, such as we find embedded in English language newspapers and captivity narratives. Though some scholars have examined the role that American media has played in constructing spurious images of Native Americans, this current research is the first of its kind that specifically examines the birth and development of Comanche stereotypes in American print culture during its formative years. This process of typification iii robbed Comanches of their own voice and identity. It marked them with indelible, negative impressions in the American imaginary – impressions that have lasted to this day in popular images of the Comanche.

  • UTEP Magazine Fall 2015 I MESSAGE from the PRESIDENT
    UTEP Magazine Fall 2015 I MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT Happy Friday! I didn’t get a chance to blog last Friday because I was in the midst of a tremendous two-day visit to UT El Paso. All of our universities and health institutions contribute culturally and economically to their local communities, but few universities anywhere are as enmeshed in the life of their hometown as UT El Paso. Simply put, UT El Paso is unique. Set in the foothills of the Franklin Mountains, El Paso enjoys the kind of mountain views most people simply don’t associate with Texas. Paul Foster, chairman of the UT System Board of Regents and El Paso resident – along with UTEP President Adm. William McRaven Diana Natalicio and her team – graciously Chancellor of The University of Texas System showed Georgeann, me and my UT System colleagues around the city and the university One of my great pleasures over the past last week. several months has been to share the joy The first thing you notice about the campus is the architecture. It requires a little backstory. and excitement prompted by UTEP’s new UTEP was founded 101 years ago (although then it was called the Texas State School of Mines Centennial Plaza project. From members and Metallurgy). The wife of the school’s first dean was fascinated by some photos she had seen of Bhutan, a country in South Asia, in National Geographic. She persuaded her husband that of our UTEP family of students, faculty, Bhutanese-style architecture would be the perfect fit for his school’s first building.
