The seed of our destruction will blossom in the desert, the alexin of our cure grows by a mountain rock, and our lives are haunted by a Georgia slattern, because a London cutpurse went unhung.

On the research Front, a new weevil (Rhinocyllus conicus) introduced as a bio-control For weed thistles was discovered impacting the already threatened Pitcher’s thistle (Cirsium pitcheri). Garden scientists have been working For over 15 years to recover this important dune species. In Colorado, experiments were set up to test new post-wildFire restoration methods as part oF our Post-wildfire restoration plots – Pine Ridge, CO ongoing work with the Bureau of Land Management. From exploring biodiversity benefits of green roofs in Chicago, to understanding the impacts of climate change on rare plants in the Western U.S., and From developing sustainable pollination strategies For crops to developing tools to better conserve Fungi, Garden scientists and students are positively impacting plants and plant communities around the world. Training the next generation oF plant scientists and conservation biologists continues to be an important activity in the department. The joint CLM interns collecting seed in NM graduate program with Northwestern University is growing and thriving. Many oF our students received prestigious Fellowships and awards in 2012. Over 120 interns contributed to important stewardship activities on public lands as part oF our Conservation and Land Management Intern Program.

Tichenor and approved by ______________________________________ Dr. Daniel J. Tichenor ______________________________________ Dr. Peter Dennis Bathory ______________________________________ Dr. Jane Y. Junn ______________________________________ Dr. Sidney M. Milkis, University of Virginia New Brunswick, NJ May, 2008 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION The Hidden Prince: Governors, Executive Power and the Rise of the Modern Presidency by SALADIN M. AMBAR Dissertation Director: Daniel J. Tichenor Before 1876, no American president had been elected directly from a statehouse. By 1932 five had, and a would-be sixth, Theodore Roosevelt, came to the office through a line of succession made possible by his successful tenure as Albany’s executive. While the modern presidency is increasingly recognized as owing its origins to the administrations of Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, an essential common denominator of the two has largely been ignored. The examples of Roosevelt and Wilson –and their progeny –as state executives, have been disconnected from the larger story of how moderns reconceived the office of President. Moreover, the American governorship’s contributions as an institution that helped redefine newly emerging Progressive Era notions of executive power, has been understudied, and in the main, undervalued. When considering the presidency’s shift toward legislative and party leadership, and the changed communicative avenues traversed by modern presidents, it is of great value to first see these phenomena altered by executives at the state level. -

THE SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF WOMEN ON THE RISE OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IN TWENTIETH CENTURY TEXAS Kristi Throne Strickland, B.B.A., M.A. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2000 APPROVED: Ronald E. Marcello, Major Professor and Chair Donald K. Pickens, Committee Member Randolph B. Campbell, Committee Member Alexandra Leavell, Committee Member Elizabeth Esterchild, Committee Member Richard M. Golden, Chair of the Department of History C. Neal Tate, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Strickland, Kristi Throne, The Significance and Impact of Women on the Rise of the Republican Party in Twentieth Century Texas. Doctor of Philosophy (History), August, 2000, 267 pp., references, 180 titles. During the early twentieth century, the Democratic party dominated the conservative political landscape of Texas. Through the 1920s, members of the Republican party focused on patronage and seemed content to maintain the position of minority party. A growing dissatisfaction with the liberal policies of the New Deal during the 1930s created opportunities for state Republicans to woo dissenting Democrats to their side. With a change of leadership within the state GOP after 1950, the Republicans waged serious campaigns for offices for the first time. Republican men exercised their political yearnings through leadership positions. Women, on the other hand, were shut out of the leadership ranks, and, as a consequence, they chose a traditional female strategy. They organized clubs in order to support the new leadership and rising candidates. Against formidable odds, Republican women acted as foot soldiers and worked diligently to attain their objectives. -
