  • THE JFK ASSASSINATION CHRONOLOGY Compiled by Ira David Wood III
    THE JFK ASSASSINATION CHRONOLOGY Compiled by Ira David Wood III The following is a copyrighted excerpt of THE JFK ASSASSINATION CHRONOLOGY compiled by Ira David Wood III dealing with timelines and events surrounding the period of JFK’s presidency. In some instances, sources are noted - i.e. “AQOC” -an abreviation for the book, A Question Of Character. Mr. Wood is currently attempting to list all sources in anticipation of publication. January 19, 1961 Eisenhower and JFK meet at the White House for a final briefing. Eisenhower tells JFK that he must assume responsibility for the overthrow of Fidel Castro and his dangerous government, and recommends the acceleration of the proposed Cuban invasion. Says Eisenhower: “ . we cannot let the present government there go on.” AQOC Eight inches of snow falls in Washington, D.C. tonight. Traffic is snarled all over the city. After a reception, a party, and a concert at Constitution Hall, the Kennedys attend a star-studded gala at the National Guard Armory planned by Frank Sinatra. Boxes cost ten thousand dollars apiece, while individual seats go for one hundred dollars. JFK gets to bed about 4:00 A.M. AQOC January 20, 1961 JFK is sworn in as the nation’s 35th President JFK is sworn in by Chief Justice Earl Warren. JFK is the wealthiest president in American history. His private income, before taxes, is estimated at about five hundred thousand a year. On his forty-fifth birthday, his personal fortune goes up an estimated $2.5 million, in 1962, when he receives another fourth of his share in three trust funds established by his father for his children.

    GOLDEN AGE HEROES: THE AMERICAN MYTH OF WOODWARD AND BERNSTEIN A Senior Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in American Studies By Lauren Louise Sinclair Washington, D.C. April 27, 2016 GOLDEN AGE HEROES: THE AMERICAN MYTH OF WOODWARD AND BERNSTEIN Lauren Louise Sinclair Thesis Adviser: Professor Brian Hochman, Ph. D. ABSTRACT The Watergate scandal of the 1970s is one of the greatest presidential scandals in American history. In an elaborate scheme in quest for more power, President Richard Nixon and his administration performed unconstitutional acts of corruption while in the White House. These acts were brought to the public by the media and the investigative reporting done on the scandal. Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward are two of the most famous investigative journalists in American history due to their work on the scandal at The Washington Post. After the scandal had passed and Richard Nixon resigned from his presidency, Woodward and Bernstein wrote a book in 1974 telling of their experience reporting on Watergate titled All the President’s Men. This book was then made into an iconic film in 1976. The release of the book and film created a narrative of the two reporters as heroic journalists and propelled them into the public eye and popular culture. Woodward and Bernstein became poster children of investigative journalism, and my research aims to highlight the portrayal of the David and Goliath archetype applied to the journalists reporting the wrongdoings of the Nixon administration.

    HISTORICAL VIGNETTE J Neurosurg Spine 27:247–255, 2017 John F. Kennedy’s back: chronic pain, failed surgeries, and the story of its effects on his life and death T. Glenn Pait, MD, and Justin T. Dowdy, MD Department of Neurological Surgery, Jackson T. Stephens Spine and Neurosciences Institute, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, Arkansas The 35th president of the United States, John F. Kennedy (JFK), experienced chronic back pain beginning in his early 20s. He underwent a total of 4 back operations, including a discectomy, an instrumentation and fusion, and 2 relatively minor surgeries that failed to significantly improve his pain. The authors examined the nature and etiology of JFK’s back pain and performed a detailed investigation into the former president’s numerous medical evaluations and treatment modalities. This information may lead to a better understanding of the profound effects that JFK’s chronic back pain and its treatment had on his life and presidency, and even his death. https://thejns.org/doi/abs/10.3171/2017.2.SPINE151524 KEY WORDS JFK; John F.

Moore, Ph.D. Committee Member ______________________________________ William L. Portier, Ph.D. Committee Member ______________________________________ David J. O’Brien, Ph.D. Committee Member ii ABSTRACT INSTITUTIONAL INNOVATOR: SARGENT SHRIVER’S LIFE AS AN ENGAGED CATHOLIC AND AS AN ACTIVE LIBERAL Name: Martin, Daniel Edwin University of Dayton Advisor: Dr. Anthony B. Smith This dissertation argues that Robert Sargent Shriver, Jr.’s Roman Catholicism is undervalued when understanding his role crafting late 1950s and 1960s public policies. Shriver played a role in desegregating Chicago’s Catholic and public school systems as well as Catholic hospitals. He helped to shape and lead the Peace Corps. He also designed many of the programs launched in President Lyndon Johnson’s War on Poverty. Shriver’s ability to produce new policies and agencies within a broader structure of governance is well known. However, Shriver’s Catholicism is often neglected when examining his influence on key public policy initiatives and innovations. This dissertation argues that Shriver’s Roman Catholic upbringing formed him in such a way as to understand the nature of large bureaucracies and to see possibilities for innovation within an overarching structure.
