Paul Brandon Barringer and Barringer Residence Hall General approach — broad considerations The Council has been asked, as part of its role, to make recommendations to the Commemorative Tributes Committee regarding the appropriateness of the University’s retaining the names of certain campus buildings. During our deliberations on Lee Hall and Barringer Hall, we used the following criteria to guide our thinking. (In future we plan to further refine these criteria and develop a process that seeks further input from the campus community.) • The connection of the individual to the institution and the appropriateness, on that basis, of honoring that individual via the monument of a building. • The value of the individual’s personal and professional contributions to the institution and society. • The alignment of the individual’s behavior and expressed values with those of the institution today; the symbolic value, positive

  • 3-18. Anglo-American Relations in Palestine 1919-1925
    Journal of American Studies of Turkey 5 (1997) : 3-18. Anglo-American Relations in Palestine 1919-1925: An Experiment in Realpolitik Stuart Knee Sometime before 11 November 1918, the Ottoman Empire expired. Happily, Europe’s “sick man” did not die unattended; a host of kin survived to divide the legacy. Among the prospective inheritors were two giants, the United States and Great Britain. For Britain, her driving force was the maintenance of Empire. For the United States, mixed motives of idealism, business enterprise and preservation of historic isolationist prerogatives resulted in the development of a policy that was often hesitant and myopic. A spirit of internationalism did not prevail in the case of either nation and, as a result, Middle East problems were exacerbated, as is demonstrated in this article. During the incipient stages of the Versailles negotiations, one American writer assessed his country’s future role in the Near and Middle East in glowing terms. He spoke of the United States as “an ideal custodian of the Dardanelles, a preserver of autonomy for ... Arabia and Persia. Her [America’s] vast Jewish population preeminently fits her to protect Palestine” (“Part of the United States” 305-306). (Note 1) Ostensibly, this was the impression Woodrow Wilson was attempting to create, but seeds of discontent, already sewn in the war, indicated a poor harvest for American idealism. Wilson, the idealist, revealed a pragmatic bent during the 1916 Presidential election campaign when his attitude on Palestine changed from disinterest to vocal pro- Zionism (Eisner 1). The change of heart was a maneuver calculated to please a numerically small but active circle of Democratic Zionists led by Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis, who was ably assisted by Harvard lawyer Felix Frankfurter, Judge Julian Mack and social justice activist Rabbi Stephen S.

  • Newly Opened Correspondence Illuminates Einstein's Personal Life
    CENTER FOR HISTORY OF PHYSICS NEWSLETTER Vol. XXXVIII, Number 2 Fall 2006 One Physics Ellipse, College Park, MD 20740-3843, Tel. 301-209-3165 Newly Opened Correspondence Illuminates Einstein’s Personal Life By David C. Cassidy, Hofstra University, with special thanks to Diana Kormos Buchwald, Einstein Papers Project he Albert Einstein Archives at the Hebrew University of T Jerusalem recently opened a large collection of Einstein’s personal correspondence from the period 1912 until his death in 1955. The collection consists of nearly 1,400 items. Among them are about 300 letters and cards written by Einstein, pri- marily to his second wife Elsa Einstein, and some 130 letters Einstein received from his closest family members. The col- lection had been in the possession of Einstein’s step-daughter, Margot Einstein, who deposited it with the Hebrew University of Jerusalem with the stipulation that it remain closed for twen- ty years following her death, which occurred on July 8, 1986. The Archives released the materials to public viewing on July 10, 2006. On the same day Princeton University Press released volume 10 of The Collected Papers of Albert Einstein, con- taining 148 items from the collection through December 1920, along with other newly available correspondence. Later items will appear in future volumes. “These letters”, write the Ein- stein editors, “provide the reader with substantial new source material for the study of Einstein’s personal life and the rela- tionships with his closest family members and friends.” H. Richard Gustafson playing with a guitar to pass the time while monitoring the control room at a Fermilab experiment.

  • Woodrow Wilson and “Peace Without Victory”: Interpreting the Reversal of 1917
    Woodrow Wilson and “Peace without Victory”: Interpreting the Reversal of 1917 John A. Thompson In a speech to the Senate on January 22, 1917, President Woodrow Wilson called for the European war to be brought to an end through “a peace without victory.” This, he argued, was the only sort of peace that could produce a lasting settlement: Victory would mean peace forced upon the loser, a victor’s terms imposed upon the vanquished. It would be accepted in humiliation, under duress, at an intolerable sacrifice, and would leave a sting, a resentment, a bitter memory President Woodrow Wilson upon which the terms of peace would rest, not permanently, but only as upon quicksand. 1 Wilson went on to outline what he saw as the other “essential” elements of a lasting peace. Such a settlement would need to be based on such principles “as that governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed and that no right anywhere exists to hand peoples about from sovereignty to sovereignty as if they were property,” recognition of the rights of small nations, freedom of the seas, and limitation of armaments on both land and sea. Above all, it required that the settlement be underwritten “by the guarantees of a universal covenant,” that it be “a peace made secure by the organized major force of mankind.” 2 John A. Thompson is emeritus reader in American History and an emeritus fellow of St Catharine’s College, University of Cambridge. He thanks Ross A. Kennedy for his helpful comments on an earlier draft of this article.
