The regional dive team, which is made up of 28 police and fire offi- cials from five area towns — Auburn, Charlton, Oxford, Sturbridge and Southbridge — was created last year, when the towns came together to form the unit because each couldn’t financially sustain one on their own. “We decided to come together so that instead of each town having a couple divers, we could pool our resources and make it easier,” said Don Contois, the Auburn team leader. The team is critical because of the area’s landscape, said Charlton Fire Department Chief Charles Cloutier.

Acknowledgements I would first like to thank my lead advisors, Dr. Joe Ripberger and Dr. Harold Brooks, for providing me guidance, opportunity, and funding to perform this research, without them I would not have been able to perform any of the research presented in this paper. I would also like to thank Dr. Kodi Berry and Holly Obermeier, who welcomed me into their CTA broadcaster study with open arms and helped me organize and record interviews with broadcasters from across the nation. As part of that effort, I would like to thank Joseph Trujillo and Emma Landeros for assisting with note-taking and moderation during the focus group and CTA interviews, both helped me keep track of all the information flying around so that I could focus on grilling the broadcasters! I’d be remiss without thanking Dr. Patrick Marsh for his assistance in outlining the development of the 5-tier SPC outlook and for encouraging my work on this project, having the ability to share my results and learn about future SPC product development was invaluable to this project.

COLLECTION DESCRIPTION: The Worcester Natural History Society was first formed in 1825 as the Worcester Lyceum of Natural History and united with the Worcester Lyceum in November 1829. The Society has been known by various names throughout its history: Worcester Lyceum of Natural History (1825), Worcester Lyceum (1829), Worcester County Lyceum and Library Association (185), Worcester Lyceum and Natural History Association (1866), Worcester Natural History Society (1884), the Worcester Science Museum (1960), the New England Science Center (1986), and, currently, the Worcester EcoTarium (1998). The general aim of the organization was to promote the knowledge and investigation of natural history. Its activities included a series of lectures, the establishment of a circulating library, and the sponsorship of debates. In 1882 the Society opened its natural history museum to the public and from 1885 to 1893 it ran a natural history summer camp on Lake Quinsigamond. The boys’ camp featured both day and overnight options, and consisted of various outdoor activities, field excursions, and military-style physical fitness training, as well as lectures taught by Society faculty.

The Worcester Tornado in Its Time: Panic and Recovery By Lianne Lajoie The city of Worcester, Massachusetts is located in central Massachusetts. Today, experts are aware that the city is part of New England’s severe weather corridor. In fact, Worcester County is regarded as the most tornado-prone region of the northeastern United States.1 However, this fact was unknown in the 1950s. This paper explores the violent tornado that devastated Worcester, Massachusetts and surrounding towns in 1953. By looking at the aftermath and the rebuilding of the city, this paper will explain how the Worcester Tornado was unique to the 1950s, in terms of both human response and existing technology. In his work Acts of God: The Unnatural History of Natural Disasters in America, environmental historian Ted Steinberg looks at the history of tornadoes and other natural disasters in America. Steinberg believes that the amount of death and destruction caused by natural disasters is influenced by socioeconomic factors and that some of America’s worst natural disasters were made more damaging through poor economic decision-making.

This Interactive Qualifying Project investigates the circumstances surrounding the planning, useful life, and decline of the Auditorium through an examination of available historical records. The original functional intention of the Auditorium, the actual resulting use during its successful lifetime, and the reasons surrounding its decline are analyzed herein. Additionally, the national and regional economic forces influencing the City of Worcester, and specifically the life of the Auditorium, are examined through statistical records and historical texts. With this information it is possible to conduct an unbiased critical analysis of any proposal for future use of the Auditorium. ii Table of Contents Chapter………………………………………………………………………………………..Page Abstract: .......................................................................................................................................... ii Table of Contents ..........................................................................................................................

This study focused on the trees in the Greendale and Burncoat neighborhoods of Worcester, Massachusetts that were infested and eventually removed as a result of the Asian Longhorn Beetle. This project explores the public perception of urban trees in Worcester, Massachusetts. The team employed the use of four data collection methods including a content analysis, questionnaires, focus groups, and Q-methodology to gather data on the economic, Introduction This study is phase-one of a multi-phase research project aimed at better understanding how the public values trees. Phase-one, completed from August – December 2009, examined the Greendale and Burncoat neighborhoods of Worcester, Massachusetts; an area that recently lost over 25,000 trees in a two-mile radius as a result of the 2008 ice storm and the Asian longhorn beetle infestation. Phase-two will probe the opinions of residents in the quarantined zone who have not lost their trees. Phase-three will further explore neighborhoods outside the quarantine zone. In phase-one, the research team explored how residents in the Greendale and Burncoat neighborhoods of Worcester, Massachusetts value the trees in their neighborhoods. Four data collection methods were employed in these neighborhoods including: two focus groups with residents, twenty-five questionnaires with residents, a content analysis on the Worcester Telegram and Gazette, and lastly, q-sorts with residents.
