  • Pennsylvania History
    PENNSYLVANIA HISTORY VOL. XXI APRIL, 1954 No. 2 THE FAILURE OF THE "HOLY EXPERIMENT" IN PENNSYLVANIA, 1684-1699 By EDWIN B. BRONNER* HE founding of colonial Pennsylvania was a great success. TLet there be no misunderstanding in regard to that matter. The facts speak for themselves. From the very beginning colonists came to the Delaware Valley in great numbers. Philadelphia grew rapidly and was eventually the largest town in the British colonies. The area under cultivation expanded steadily; Pennsylvania con- tinued to grow throughout the colonial period, and her pecuniary success has never been questioned. The Proprietor granted his freemen an enlightened form of government, and gradually accepted a series of proposals by the citizenry for liberalizing the constitution. As an outgrowth of the Quaker belief that all men are children of God, the colony granted religious toleration to virtually all who wished to settle, made a practice of treating the Indians in a fair and just manner, opposed (as a matter of conscience) resorting to war, experimented with enlightened principles in regard to crime and punishment, and fostered advanced ideas concerning the equality of the sexes and the enslavement of human beings. As a colonizing venture, the founding of Pennsylvania was a triumph for William Penn and those who joined with him in the undertaking. On the other hand, conditions which prevailed in Pennsylvania in the first decades caused Penn untold grief, and results fell far short of what he had envisaged when he wrote concerning the *Dr. Edwin B. Bronner of Temple University is author of Thomas Earle as a Reformer and "Quaker Landmarks in Early Philadelphia" (in Historic Philadelphia, published by the American Philosophical Society, 1953).

  • Pennsylvania Parent Guide to Special Education for School-Age Children
    Pennsylvania Parent Guide to Special Education for School-Age Children INTRODUCTION Parents are very important participants in the special education process. Parents know their child better than anyone else and have valuable information to contribute about the kinds of programs and services that are needed for their child’s success in school. To ensure the rights of children with a disability, additional laws have been enacted. In this guide we use the terms “rules” and “regulations.” This booklet has been written to explain these rules so parents will feel comfortable and can better participate in the educational decision-making process for their child. The chapters that follow address questions that parents may have about special education, relating to their child who is thought to have, or may have, a disability. Chapter One focuses on how a child’s need for special education is determined. In this chapter, the evaluation and decision-making processes are discussed, as well as the members of the team who conduct the tests and make the decisions regarding a child’s eligibility for special education programs and services. Chapter Two explains how a special education program (that is, an Individualized Education Program) is devel- oped and the kinds of information it must include. This chapter describes how appropriate services are deter- mined, as well as the notice that a school district must give to parents summarizing a child’s special education program. Planning for the transition from school to adult living is also discussed. Chapter Three deals with the responsibilities that a school district has to a child who is eligible for special education services and the child’s parents.

    COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS SUFFOLK, ss SUPERIOR COURT _________________________________________ ) COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS, ) ) STATEMENT OF Plaintiff, ) INTEREST BY THE ) UNITED STATES v. ) ) PENNSYLVANIA HIGHER EDUCATION ) Case No. 1784CV02682 ASSISTANCE AGENCY, ) d/b/a FedLoan Servicing, ) ) Defendant. ) __________________________________________) INTRODUCTION The United States respectfully submits this brief pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 517.1 The United States has a substantial interest in, and a long history of, developing programs to help students access postsecondary education. For decades, the United States has sought to increase access to higher education by serving as a reinsurer and guarantor of private loans, serving as the sole originator and holder of Direct Loans, and also establishing a variety of other federal programs to aid students. Here, Massachusetts alleges that the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency (PHEAA), an entity that contracts with the Federal Government to service federal loans, has violated state and federal consumer protection laws. As relevant here, Massachusetts alleges that PHEAA wrongfully failed to count periods of forbearance for borrowers to satisfy the requirements of certain loan forgiveness programs, that PHEAA 1 “The Solicitor General, or any officer of the Department of Justice, may be sent by the Attorney General to any State or district in the United States to attend to the interests of the United States in a suit pending in a court of the United States, or in a court of a State, or to attend to any other interest of the United States.” 28 U.S.C. § 517. wrongfully converted the grants of participants who had not filed the correct documentation for loans as required by the Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) Grant Program, and that PHEAA wrongfully allocated certain overpayments to interest and fees.

  • Philadelphia County One of the Three Original Counties Created by William
    Philadelphia County One of the three original counties created by William Penn in November 1682, and its name to him signified “brotherly love,” although the original Philadelphia in Asia Minor was actually “the city of Philadelphus.” Philadelphia was laid out in 1682 as the county seat and the capital of the Province; it was chartered as a city on October 25, 1701, and rechartered on March 11, 1789. On February 2, 1854, all municipalities within the county were consolidated with the city. The county offices were merged with the city government in 1952. Swedes and Finns first settled within the county in 1638. Dutch seized the area in 1655, but permanently lost control to England in 1674. Penn’s charter for Pennsylvania was received from the English king in 1681, and was followed by Penn’s November 1682 division of Pennsylvania into three counties. The City of Philadelphia merged (and became synonymous) with Philadelphia County in 1854. Thomas Holme made the physical plan for the City, and the Northern Liberties were designated to give urban lots to all who purchased 5,000 rural acres in Pennsylvania. The City had eighty families in 1683, 4,500 inhabitants in 1699, 10,000 in 1720, 23,700 in 1774. Philadelphia was economically the strongest city in America until surpassed by New York City in population in 1820 and in commerce by about 1830, although Philadelphia was strongest in manufacturing until the early twentieth century. It led the nation in textiles, shoes, shipbuilding, locomotives, and machinery. Leadership in transportation, both as a depot and a center for capital funding, was another Philadelphia attribute.

  • A Timeline of Bucks County History 1600S-1900S-Rev2
    A TIMELINE OF BUCKS COUNTY HISTORY— 1600s-1900s 1600’s Before c. A.D. 1609 - The native peoples of the Delaware Valley, those who greet the first European explorers, traders and settlers, are the Lenni Lenape Indians. Lenni Lenape is a bit of a redundancy that can be translated as the “original people” or “common people.” Right: A prehistoric pot (reconstructed from fragments), dating 500 B.C.E. to A.D. 1100, found in a rockshelter in northern Bucks County. This clay vessel, likely intended for storage, was made by ancestors of the Lenape in the Delaware Valley. Mercer Museum Collection. 1609 - First Europeans encountered by the Lenape are the Dutch: Henry Hudson, an Englishman sailing under the Dutch flag, sailed up Delaware Bay. 1633 - English Captain Thomas Yong tries to probe the wilderness that will become known as Bucks County but only gets as far as the Falls of the Delaware River at today’s Morrisville. 1640 - Portions of lower Bucks County fall within the bounds of land purchased from the Lenape by the Swedes, and a handful of Swedish settlers begin building log houses and other structures in the region. 1664 - An island in the Delaware River, called Sankhickans, is the first documented grant of land to a European - Samuel Edsall - within the boundaries of Bucks County. 1668 - The first grant of land in Bucks County is made resulting in an actual settlement - to Peter Alrichs for two islands in the Delaware River. 1679 - Crewcorne, the first Bucks County village, is founded on the present day site of Morrisville.

  • Withholding of Pennsylvania State / Local Taxes
    ~~ COMPTROLLER Peter Franchot ~ r;(MARYLAND Comptroller Serving the People Robert]. Murphy J Director Central Payroll Bureau January 1, 2014 Withholding Of Pennsylvania State I Local Taxes Central Payroll recently completed a review of the following question: Why doesn't the State of Maryland withhold Pennsylvania State Tax for our government employees who work here in Maryland yet live in Pennsylvania. Central Payroll Bureau and representatives from our Information Technology Division, The Revenue Administration Division, and the Comptroller's Office of Legal Counsel have discussed the many pros and cons of taking on such a task. In these discussions we have evaluated the following: 1. The numerous computer system modifications and personnel expense necessary to accomplish such a task 2. Our reciprocal agreement between Maryland and Pennsylvania, signed in March of 1990 by the late Louis L. Goldstein, then Comptroller of Maryland. 3. Our current knowledge of Pennsylvania's Local Taxing Authority which allows local taxing against Maryland residents working in certain Pennsylvania townships. 4. Maryland's retaliatory taxing where we impose a county tax on the earnings of some Pennsylvania residents (see Tax General §10-806 for general application). 5. The most recent updates concerning Pennsylvania's passage of the Local Tax Enabling Act, known as Act 32 and 6. The potential risks to the State of Maryland's current sovereign immunity with Pennsylvania. As a result of our joint detailed research, related webinar attendance and numerous discussions, we have identified many high impact differences between the withholding requirements of Pennsylvania and those currently being used for Maryland, West Virginia, and/or the District of Columbia.
