The information in this report was for many years included as a portion of the State Fire Marshal Division’s (SFMD) Fire in Minnesota publication, which consisted mainly of statistics. Last year we decided to outline the SFMD staff’s diverse accomplishments in a stand-alone report. The feedback was tremendous and positive. The SFMD turned 110 years old in 2015. We’re proud of that milestone and take seriously our job of serving the Minnesota fire service, Minnesota residents and visitors of this great state. Fire safety, fire prevention and exceptional customer service will continue to be cornerstones of the way we do business. We have already been working hard this year on enhancing the future of public safety in Minnesota, but here’s a preview of some facts you’ll find in this report that show what we accomplished last year. School inspections n Emergency planning evaluations were completed in one-third of the state’s public schools. Schools are inspected on a three-year cycle. Health care inspections n 401 health care facilities and 151 Department of Corrections facilities were inspected. Residential care and lodging inspections n All mandatory hotel/motel and Department of Human Services (DHS)-required fire safety inspections were completed. Fire investigations n Investigators responded to 465 fires. The team also conducted basic and advanced fire and arson investigation training statewide. Data collection n Minnesota continues to lead the nation in fire reporting rates with 99 percent of departments submitting data via the Minnesota Fire Incident Reporting System. We will work hard to build on these successes in 2016. As your state fire marshal, I am proud to provide you with the State Fire Marshal Division 2015 Annual Report. Thank you for your continued support.

Bus Driver Fatigue and Stress Issues Study Final Report November 18, 1999 I INTRODUCTION Arrowhead Space and Telecommunications, Inc. conducted a research project to identify unique aspects of operations within the motorcoach industry which may produce bus driver fatigue and stress. Funding for and oversight of the study was provided by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Office of Motor Carriers (OMC). The purpose of this study is to (1) identify from direct interaction with motorcoach owners, safety directors, operations managers, and drivers those fatigue-inducing stresses which they believe are unique to the motorcoach industry; (2) evaluate the relative influence of these stresses on bus driver fatigue; (3) provide relevant feedback to the FHWA/OMC for its use in future decisions which will affect the motorcoach industry; and (4) develop an outreach video to help motorcoach drivers understand the effects of fatigue, the stresses that induce it, and means to reduce it.

No part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic, mechanical, photocopying, recording or otherwise, without the prior permission of the copyright owner ISBN 07139 12790 jj Printed in Great Britain by f Thomson Litho Ltd, East Kilbride, Scotland J For Barbara and Daniel AUTHOR'S NOTE This book has grown out of the 16,000 pages of documents that the CIA released to me under the Freedom of Information Act. Without these documents, the best investigative reporting in the world could not have produced a book, and the secrets of CIA mind-control work would have remained buried forever, as the men who knew them had always intended. From the documentary base, I was able to expand my knowledge through interviews and readings in the behavioral sciences. Neverthe- less, the final result is not the whole story of the CIA's attack on the mind. Only a few insiders could have written that, and they choose to remain silent. I have done the best I can to make the book as accurate as possible, but I have been hampered by the refusal of most of the principal characters to be interviewed and by the CIA's destruction in 1973 of many of the key docu- ments.

    Northwestern Michigan College The Second IVvenfy Years 1971 -1991 Al Shumsky Assisted by Carole Marlatt NORTHWESTERN MICHIGAN COLLEGE The Second Twenty Years 1971-1991 A1 Shumsky Assisted by Carole Marlatt February 1994 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Thanks are due many people who helped with this project. First to the two people without whom it could not have been done: Tim Quinn and Carole Marlatt. Tim initiated the project and supported it with released time, and with no directions whatsoever beyond "Have a good time!" Carole not only prepared the manuscript, assembled the rosters in the appendix, chose the pictures, and both provided her own and edited my memories; she also is the one who recorded the Board minutes for these twenty years and then indexed them and preserved the hard copy so it was available to this amateur historian. (She, in fact, is the one to go to if you want to know what really went on during these years.) Thanks are also due these many others who graciously provided information or corroborated memories: Bob Buttleman, Doug Campbell, Becky Chartier, Jan Gasnik, Kathleen Guy, Chet Janik, Bill King, George Kuhn, Keith MacPhee, Nancy McArthur, Shelley Merrill, Dick Minor, Shirley Okerstrom, Barbara Raehl, Joe Rogers, PatSalathiel, Bill Shaw, Don Shikoski, Chuck Shreve, Robbie Teahen, Bob Warner, and Steve Westphal. Recognition is also due the hundreds of people—Board members, faculty and staff—whose names do not appear in this account, but who in fact constituted the College. Without them, there would be no history to write. I apologize to all whose contributions have not been specifically mentioned.
