Samuel McKinney opened this hotel which by 1848 was called the White Swan Hotel by his sister, proprietress Mary Fishbaugh. "Child’s Bummer" was the name of a cannon, owned by innkeeper Russel Child, who fired a blast announcing Union troop victories during the Civil War. The Reynolds family owned this property from 1880-1950. Harry Hartman, antiques dealer and interior designer, restored the property from 1965- 1973 during the historic preservation initiatives in Marietta. James Howell, Base Commander at Olmsted Air Force Base, opened White Swan Antiques in this historic property.

They need to be able to communicate using the last 10 years, an average 70 percent of our students have studied images—still and moving—with the same degree of confidence with abroad. Equally remarkable, during that same period, our students have which they communicate in writing and speech. Yes, the courses our explored 92 countries on six continents. While I am eager for that students take in the visual arts are a part of this, but we also are number to reach 100, I am gratified to know that we continue to find increasing the attention we pay to visuality in disciplines that are ways to enhance the educational component of study abroad. traditionally more rooted in text.

  • How the Atlanta Daily World Covered the Struggle for African American Rights from 1945 to 1985
    Abstract Title of Dissertation: THE CAUTIOUS CRUSADER: HOW THE ATLANTA DAILY WORLD COVERED THE STRUGGLE FOR AFRICAN AMERICAN RIGHTS FROM 1945 TO 1985 Name: Maria E. Odum-Hinmon Doctor of Philosophy, 2005 Dissertation Directed By: Prof. Maurine Beasley, Ph. D. Philip Merrill College of Journalism This dissertation is a study of the Atlanta Daily World, a conservative black newspaper founded in 1928, that covered the civil rights struggle in ways that reflected its orientation to both democratic principles and practical business concerns. The World became the most successful black daily newspaper in the nation after becoming a daily in 1932 and maintaining that status for nearly four decades. This dissertation details how this newspaper chronicled the simultaneous push for civil rights, better conditions in the black community, and recognition of black achievement during the volatile period of social change following World War II. Using descriptive, thematic analysis and in-depth interviews, this dissertation explores the question: How did the Atlanta Daily World crusade for the rights of African Americans against a backdrop of changing times, particularly during the crucial forty- year period between 1945 and 1985? The study contends that the newspaper carried out its crusade by highlighting information and events important to the black community from the perspective of the newspaper’s strong-willed publisher, C. A. Scott, and it succeeded by relying on Scott family members and employees who worked long hours for low wages. The study shows that the World fought against lynching and pushed for voting rights in the 1940s and 1950s. The newspaper eschewed sit-in demonstrations to force eateries to desegregate in the 1960s because they seemed dangerous and counterproductive when the college students wound up in jail rather than in school.

Emanuel* Truth is sometimes stranger than fiction. So it was in 1960 when Elbert Tuttle became the Chief Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, the federal appellate court with jurisdiction over most of the Deep South. Part of the genius of the Republic lies in the carefully calibrated structure of the federal courts of appeal. One assumption underlying the structure is that judges from a particular state might bear an allegiance to the interests of that state, which would be reflected in their opinions.
