  • School of Physical Education and Tourism Management
    School of Physical Education and Tourism Management Records, 1873-2009 UA 036 UA 036 - page 1 School of Physical Education and Tourism Management Records, 1873-2009 UA 036 11.0 c.f. (10 cartons, 1 document box, and 1 flat box) ABSTRACT The Indiana University School of Physical Education opened in 1866 as a private school for the instruction of gymnastic teachers and is the oldest continuously operated school of physical education in the country. The school’s faculty and graduates have played a major role in the introduction of physical education into the public school curriculum and in the development of physical education as a discipline. The school, first known as the Turnlehrerseminar (Gymnastic Teachers’ Seminary) and then as the Normal College of the American Gymnastic Union, was started by the American Turners, an athletic, cultural, and social organization founded by German immigrants in 1850. The school originally trained instructors for the athletic programs run by Turner societies, but by the late nineteenth century many of the school’s graduates were teaching in public schools as school systems began adding physical education to their curriculum. The Normal College, which moved to Indianapolis in 1907, merged with Indiana University in 1941. In 1946 the school became a department within the Indiana University School of Health, Physical Education and Recreation, then in 1971 became an autonomous school under its current name. Records include correspondence, minutes, faculty and student records, financial records, alumni records, publications, and other records. ACCESS Student records in these records are restricted for 75 years after creation. All other material is open to the public without restriction.

    IUPUI University Library ANNUAL REPORT, 2013–2014 21 years, 21 stories 21 years. 21 stories. The library has come of age. And we have stories to tell. On the 21st anniversary of the IUPUI University Library building, we have much to celebrate: We serve more than 1 million visitors a year, 10 percent of them community users. We fuel the scholarly pursuits of more than 35,000 students and faculty. We employ 60 student workers each year, helping them afford their IUPUI education. In these pages you will find 21 stories that represent just how far we’ve come in our first 21 years—and how far we might go in the future. These stories are just the beginning. There are so many stories left to write. IUPUI Library dedication, April, 1994. The Heart of Campus Over the years, the library building has meant many different things to students, faculty, and community members. It has served as a place for quiet study and reflection, a space for collaboration, a gathering place for students from the far reaches of campus. In short, it is the heart of campus. In its 21st year, we want to celebrate the STORY NUMBER unique history of this IUPUI landmark. Built of Indiana limestone and featuring large windows, the library remains a distinctive building on an ever- 21 changing campus. Architect Edward Larrabee Barnes boldly created a building that featured natural light as the focal point, a decision that was at odds with the construction of traditional library buildings. At the time of the building’s opening in 1993, the library was one of the most technologically advanced public university libraries in the country.

  • Athenaeum Turners Records, 1876-2002 Mss
    Athenaeum Turners Records, 1876-2002 Mss 032 Athenaeum Turners Records, 1880-2002 Mss 032 13.4 c.f (10 cartons and 6 flat boxes) ABSTRACT The Athenaeum Turner organization was founded in 1851 as the Indianapolis Turngemeinde. This athletic and social organization was patterned on German clubs that had supported the 1848 revolutions that attempted to form Liberal republics in several European kingdoms. The men who established the Indianapolis Turngemeinde and the competing Indianapolis Socialistischer Turnverein (merged in 1852 to form the Indianapolis Socialistischer Turnegemiende) tried to create a community focus for the rapidly expanding immigrant population. The activist political backgrounds of many German immigrants led to a strong emphasis on the Turner idea of developing both a strong mind and strong body in order to better serve society. After the American Civil War, for which many Turners volunteered due to anti-slavery beliefs and a desire to demonstrate loyalty to their adopted nation, the reorganized and renamed Indianapolis Socialer Turnverein became the primary focus for German business and culture in the city. Certainly the German House (das Deutsches Haus), built between 1894 and 1898, was designed to serve as more than just a center for physical training since it contained a restaurant, theaters, and a number of meeting rooms. From the 1890s, the leaders of the Turner organization were also directors or important officers in dozens of prominent businesses and cultural organizations. This led to some overlap in the interaction between public, private, and political affairs in the German community of Indianapolis - and this is reflected in the collection.

  • Race, Containment, and the Settler-Imperial Politics of the Green Revolution
    Race, Containment, and the Settler-Imperial Politics of the Green Revolution By Hossein Ayazi A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science, Policy, and Management in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Alastair Iles, Co-chair Professor Keith P. Feldman, Co-chair Professor Kathryn De Master Professor Thomas Biolsi Summer 2018 @Copyright by Hossein Ayazi 2018 Abstract Race, Containment, and the Settler-Imperial Politics of the Green Revolution by Hossein Ayazi Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science, Policy, and Management University of California, Berkeley Professor Alastair Iles, Co-chair Professor Keith P. Feldman, Co-chair From roughly the early 1940s to the early 1970s, the United States led a set of international capital-intensive agricultural research, technology, and education transfer initiatives. These initiatives were designed to facilitate a more expansive market agrarianism, increase agricultural yields, and combat hunger amidst concerns of a rapidly growing population. Yet, named the “Green Revolution,” these initiatives, in their push for the development of industrial agriculture oriented to the global market, ultimately preempted peasant unrest and undermined larger revolutionary action as they reconstituted states as guarantors of agricultural markets in service of U.S. state power and transnational capitalism. This dissertation, Race, Containment, and the Settler-Imperial Politics of the Green Revolution, recognizes the Green Revolution as an exercise in the risk management of racial capitalism during a period of great social upheaval: when overlapping, internationalized anticolonial and civil rights movements named the limits of racial democracy and risked undercutting postwar U.S.

  • Athenaeum Damenverein & Women=S Auxiliary Records, 1876-2007 Mss 39
    Athenaeum Damenverein & Women=s Auxiliary Records, 1876-2007 Mss 39 Athenaeum Damenverein & Women=s Auxiliary Records, 1876-2007 Mss 39 4.4 c.f. (3 cartons, 1 document box, 2 flat boxes) ABSTRACT This women=s organization was founded by the Socialer Turnverein (Social Athletic Club) in 1876 as the Indianapolis Turn-Schwestern Verein. It was initially intended to support the activities of the Turnverein, and especially to promote and oversee the girls= athletic classes, and to help enlarge and preserve the Turner library. Within a few years the Turn ASisters@ became known as the Damenverein (Women=s Club) des Socialer Turnverein and began to undertake broader responsibilities in the community. As with most German societies, membership declined during World War I and use of the German language was dropped. The organization revived with the merging of several societies during the 1930s and becomes known as the Women=s Auxiliary. Membership increased again after World War II as their focus drifted away from a wartime role as a service organization and more towards social activities. The gradual decline of the Athenaeum Turners through the 1970s and 1980s also affected the Women=s Auxiliary. In the 1990s the Damenverein name was restored to recognize the earlier German connections, and in recent years the very limited activities of the group have become more closely linked with their German-American cultural identity. The records consist of constitutions and by-laws, minutes, correspondence, financial records, committee reports, membership lists and directories, event advertisements and photographs.

    What ‘Open to the Public’ Means at IUPUI William H. Weare, Jr. Access Services Team Leader Indiana University–Purdue University, Indianapolis, IN Note This piece was an invited contribution to Bell, S. (2013), Open to the public: Risks and rewards of serving the local community. The Version of Record was published in the Library Issues, available online via EBSCOhost Library & Information Science Source. Weare, W. H., Jr. (2013). What ‘open to the public’ means at IUPUI. Sidebar to S. Bell, Open to the public: Risks and rewards of serving the local community. Library Issues 34(1). Weare – What ‘Open to the Public’ Means at IUPUI The University Library at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) is both an academic library and a community library. In addition to supporting the academic programs of IUPUI, the library also “opens its doors and collections to the citizens of the state of Indiana and beyond” (http://www.ulib.iupui.edu/development/community). The library is a significant economic and social resource for our community; as such, we believe it is important that we share our collections and services. Although we tend to refer to all of our community users as if they are all of one type, there are actually three particular types: (1) computer users; (2) borrowers; and (3) high school students who come to the library to access databases and to use materials from the collection. With the exception of the high school students, there are very few patrons who visit the library who both use the computers and borrow materials. Any adult state resident with a valid I.D.
