POTTER Alumni Trustee ? • • • %J UDGING by the early return of postal ballots in the triennial nomination of an Alumni Trustee for Rollins, former students everywhere are keenly interested in voting for their favorite candidate who will directly represent them in the government of their Alma Mater. It will be noted by the comparative figures given below that the candidates are running rather closely together. Votes may be sent in as late as December 31, the closing day of the election. All former students who have not already voted are urged to express their pre- ference. The candidate receiving the largest number of votes will be recommended for election to the Board of Trustees at the next An- nual Meeting of the Board in February.

  • "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. INTRODUCTION..........................................................................................39 I. AN IMMIGRANT FAMILY’S BACKSTORY ............................................43 Ann Loeb Bronfman Distinguished Professor of Law and Government, American University. I am grateful for the American Council of Learned Societies, which awarded me a fellowship to support the research and writing of this article.

Wenxian Zhang, Raja Rahim and Julian Chambliss 59 Race and Sport in the Florida Sun: The Rollins/Ohio Wesleyan Football Game of 1947 Wenxian Zhang Rollins College Raja Rahim University of Florida Julian Chambliss Michigan State University Abstract As the most popular sport in the United States, football occupies a central place in popu- lar discourse. Since the early twentieth century, public engagement with football has been central to sport culture. Across the South, football provided a moment of common experi- ence, and this was especially true of Rollins College. Being the oldest liberal arts institution in Florida, life at Rollins was linked to football for decades. Yet, as this comment suggested, the nature of the relationship could not be unaffected by the changing racial dynamic in the United States.
