  • Ii.2. Meridian Highway (Sh 2) – Us 81 – Ih 35/35W
    The Development of Highways in Texas: A Historic Context of the Bankhead Highway and Other Historic Named Highways II.2. MERIDIAN HIGHWAY (SH 2) – US 81 – IH 35/35W INTRODUCTION The Meridian Highway historically has been the major north–south named highway in Texas since the early 1910s. As originally conceived by the International Meridian Road Association in 1911, it stretched from Canada to Mexico, extending through the nation’s mid-section and the expansive Great Plains region. It initially was planned to enter Texas near Burkburnett and continued south through Wichita Falls, Bowie, Fort Worth, Cleburne, Waco, Austin, San Antonio and Laredo. A major lateral, called the Gulf Division, was planned to extend from Waco to Galveston, passing through Marlin, Bryan, Hempstead, and Houston. (See Figure 164.) With the creation of the Texas Highway Department in 1917, the Meridian Highway in Texas was designated as SH 2, signifying that the Texas Highway Commission deemed it to be the state’s second most important highway at the time, after the Bankhead Highway (SH 1). The adoption of the AASHO interstate highway numbering plan added another designation layer onto the Meridian Highway: US 81. That name, rather than SH 2, has endured over time. However, US 81 did not follow the route proposed by the Meridian Road Association precisely. The creation of US 81 in Texas excluded the Wichita Falls– Bowie leg, which was renamed as US 277 and, later, US 370. The Gulf Division also was excluded from the route of US 81; instead, it became SH 6 and, later, US 75.

  • Muffled Voices of the Past: History, Mental Health, and HIPAA
    INTERSECT: PERSPECTIVES IN TEXAS PUBLIC HISTORY 27 Muffled Voices of the Past: History, Mental Health, and HIPAA by Todd Richardson As I set out to write this article, I wanted to explore mental health and the devastating toll that mental illness can take on families and communities. Born out of my own personal experiences with my family, I set out to find historical examples of other people who also struggled to find treatment for themselves or for their loved ones. I know that when a family member receives a diagnosis of a chronic mental illness, their life changes drastically. Mental illness affects individuals and their loved ones in a variety of ways and is a grueling experience for all parties involved. When a family member’s mind crumbles, often that person— the brother or father or favorite aunt— is gone forever. Families, left helpless, watch while a person they care for exists in a state of constant anguish. I understood that my experiences were neither new nor unique. As a student of history, I knew that other families’ stories must exist somewhere in the recorded past. By looking back through time, I hoped to shine a light on the history of American mental health policy and perhaps to make the voices of those affected by mental illness heard. Doing so might bring some sense of justice and awareness to the lives of people with mental illness in the present in the same way that history allows other marginalized groups to make their voices heard and reshape the way people perceive the past.
