There will be a series of fundraising events Soldier, student earns Purple Heart hosted by the initiative Nov. 10 to 13. All of the proceeds raised will go towards the goal of Hydrate Haiti to send water filters to the people of Haiti. “There’s an epidemic of no clean water in Haiti,” said Ben Ford, a senior majoring in his- tory and pre-law and one of the students behind the initiative. “Bart Smelley contacted me and said his philanthropy company, Global Effect, had been going down there giving water filters to people. The filters have this technology that gets fresh water to a family of seven to eight for five years. The filters cost about $30 apiece, so [Smelley] asked if we wanted to try to do this at Alabama.” The University is the first school to take part in Hydrate Haiti, though the initiative will eventually be happening at every school in the Southeastern Conference. There are four members, Ford, Elliot Rowe, Megan Brantley, Candice Rosencranz, who compose the core of the Hydrate Haiti initiative.

Emanuel* Truth is sometimes stranger than fiction. So it was in 1960 when Elbert Tuttle became the Chief Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, the federal appellate court with jurisdiction over most of the Deep South. Part of the genius of the Republic lies in the carefully calibrated structure of the federal courts of appeal. One assumption underlying the structure is that judges from a particular state might bear an allegiance to the interests of that state, which would be reflected in their opinions.

James, 21, was a member of The University of Alabama’s track and field team from 2009-10. But his rise to fame came after winning gold medals in the men’s 400-meter at the 2011 World Championships in Daegu, South Korea, and the 2012 Olympic Games in London. The Olympic triumph was the first medal of any kind for his home country of Grenada. Now, the reigning Olympic champion is back in Tuscaloosa as a part-time junior, majoring in general business, trying to com- plete his degree at the University. Fellow students don’t realize a professional athlete is taking a break between classes, just like them. James likes it that way. “It’s a nice, laid-back place where I can just sit back and relax, focus on what I have to do,” James said. “It’s just a good training environment and a good environment for me to grow in, in terms of my career and also as a person.” Casey Jones, a tax analyst at the University, works with inter- national students and has known James since he arrived at the Capstone.

  • CHAPTER 1 GROWING up in SEGREGATION an Adult Sense of Racial Awareness Began for Me in the Late 1940S When I Was a Young Teenage
    CHAPTER 1 GROWING UP IN SEGREGATION An adult sense of racial awareness began for me in the late 1940s when I was a young teenager. My mother and father took me and my older brother to Ford’s Theater, the only “legitimate theater” in Baltimore where one could see a touring Broadway show. The family was going to see the Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammerstein, II, musical Show Boat to celebrate my older brother’s birthday. To get into the theater, my family and I had to walk past a young white man holding up a sign protesting racial discrimination at Ford’s Theater. This lone picketer, I later realized, was probably claiming that a “whites-only” Ford’s Theater violated the “separate but equal” doctrine promulgated by the Supreme Court in 1896 to justify racial discrimina- tion. Since there was no separate theater where blacks could see a touring Broadway play in Baltimore, even the antiquated “separate but equal” principal required that black people be allowed to buy a ticket and watch the show at Ford’s Theater. The Supreme Court decision was Plessy v. Ferguson. The court ruled that, under the “equal protection of the laws” clause of the U. S. Consti- tution, facilities for African-Americans could be separate from white facilities as long as they were equal to the white facilities. As I was standing there, a white man walked up to the young white man holding the sign demanding that blacks be allowed into Ford’s Theater. The white man whispered something in the picketer’s ear.
