AUSTIN Advisor: Professor Herman L. Bennett This dissertation constructs a social and intellectual history of poor and working class African Americans in the interwar period in Washington, D.C. Although the advent of social history shifted scholarly emphasis onto the “ninety-nine percent,” many scholars have framed black history as the story of either the educated, uplifted and accomplished elite, or of a culturally depressed monolithic urban mass in need of the alleviation of structural obstacles to advancement.

  • Bus Security
    Bus Security Every day in this country, school buses transport millions of students to and from school, athletic events and field trips. A violent incident transpiring on a school bus is a crisis scenario often overlooked by the majority of school districts. For too many schools, there’s the belief that an effective bus security plan just cannot be developed. The truth is simple — your school district must be proactive in your bus safety efforts by planning and practicing for the various emergencies that may occur on one of your school buses. Y N Bus Crisis Planning Develop bus crisis plans with school administration, your police and sheriffs departments, and local emergency medical responders. Your plan should address crises such as fires, weather emergencies, serious vehicle accidents, school evacuations, and hostage situations as well as terrorist activities. Your bus drivers, school administration, law enforcement, and emergency responders must train together. Everyone needs to know their role and how others will respond during a bus crisis. Ask your local law enforcement, SWAT teams, and emergency responders to periodically conduct emergency training exercises on your buses. Develop alternative bus evacuation routes from each of your schools, events, and facilities. Alternative evacuation routes may be used if roads are closed, blocked, damaged, or if there is a substantial amount of traffic congestion. Y N Bus Crisis Planning (continued) Make sure your district’s transportation manager, supervisors, and bus drivers are trained as to their role in your school district’s crisis prevention program. Be prepared to quickly mobilize your bus services for any incident when drivers are not normally scheduled.
