The ceremony was appropriately carried out before a gathering of Florida's most prominent political and educational leaders and every detail went through without hitch or mishap. Knowles Memo- rial Chapel was filled with faculty officers, students and invited guests and the usual legion of Secret Service, photographers and news representatives. The degree ceremony was dignified but brief. President Truman followed with a short address in which he paid high tribute to the work of Dr. Holt in the upbuilding and influence of Rollins College and its great con- tribution to the education of American youth.

    "By Accident of Birth": the Battle Over Birthright Citizenship After United

    “By Accident of Birth”: The Battle over Birthright Citizenship After United States v. Wong Kim Ark Amanda Frost In theory, birthright citizenship has been well established in U.S. law since 1898, when the Supreme Court held in United States v. Wong Kim Ark that all born on U.S. soil are U.S. citizens. The experience of immigrants and their families over the last 120 years tells a different story, however. This article draws on government records documenting the Wong family’s struggle for legal recognition to illuminate the convoluted history of birthright citizenship. Newly discovered archival materials reveal that Wong Kim Ark and his family experienced firsthand, and at times shaped, the fluctuating relationship between immigration, citizenship, and access to civil and political rights. The U.S. government reacted to its loss in Wong’s case at first by refusing to accept the rule of birthright citizenship, and then by creating onerous proof-of-citizenship requirements that obstructed recognition of birthright citizenship for certain ethnic groups. But the Wong family’s story is not only about the use and abuse of government power. Government records reveal that the Wongs, like others in their position, learned how to use the immigration bureaucracy to their own advantage, enabling them to establish a foothold in the United States despite the government’s efforts to bar them from doing so.

When Nan was fifteen, her mother married wealthy Colonel Arthur S. Dwight, and moved her family to Dwight’s home in Great Neck, Long Island. With a deep interest in progressive education, Anne persuaded Nan to attend the School of Organic Education in Fairhope, Alabama, for two winters. Founded by Marietta Johnson, a leader in the progressive education movement, the school eliminated tests and grades and integrated crafts and folk dancing. “I don’t suppose I learned much at Fairhope academically,” Nan recalled, “but I got quite interested in the whole business of so-called progressive education and experimental education.

Journal of Black Mountain College Studies, Volume 11 (Fall 2020) Book Review: Dewey for Artists by Mary Jane Jacob Thomas Edward Frank Mary Jane Jacob, Dewey for Artists. Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 2018. When John Dewey presided over the Curriculum Conference at Rollins College in 1931, he was already an iconic figure. His passionate call for reform in the public schools, School and Society, had been among the most discussed books for educators 30 years before. His compelling case for schools to form citizens of a democracy, Democracy and Education, had made its impact 15 years before. His name had become the brand of “progressive” education and he was in demand as a speaker across the US and the world. Yet if Rollins’s president Hamilton Holt had brought him in as an expert authority on progressivism and reform in liberal arts education, Dewey immediately demurred.
