M. Brooks, Statistical Reporting Service, U.S. Dept. of Agriculture 1977 I FOREWORD The Statistical Reporting Service, as with any organization, needs to know its past to understand the present and appraise the future. Accordingly, our technical procedures are peri- ^odically set forth in ''Scope and Methods of the Statistical Reporting Service," and the agency's early development and program expansion were presented in "The Story of Agricultural Estimates." However, most important are the people who de- veloped this complex and efficient statistical service for agriculture and those who maintain and expand it today. Dr. Harry C. Trelogan, SRS Administrator, 1961-1975, arranged for Emerson M. Brooks to prepare this informal account of some of the people who steered SRS's course from 1933 to 1961. The series of biographical sketches selected by the author are representative of the people who helped develop the per- sonality of SRS and provide the talent to meet challenges for accurate and timely agricultural information. This narrative touching the critical issues of that period and the way they'^ were resolved adds to our understanding of the agency and helps maintain the esprit de corps that has strengthened our work since it started in 1862. Our history provides us some valuable lessons, for "those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." W.

Other scholars highlighted the work done by the “President’s Committee on Equality and Opportunity in the Armed Services,” also known as the Fahy Committee, which was formed as a result of Order 9981. However, when the United States was compelled to take military action following the surprise attack by North Korean forces on June 25, 1950, the U.S. Army units sent into action in Korea were mostly composed of segregated units such as the all-black 24th Infantry Regiment.

  • The Historical Thought of Film: Terrence Malick and Philosophical Cinema
    The Historical Thought of Film: Terrence Malick and Philosophical Cinema A dissertation presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Steven M. Rybin June 2009 © 2009 Steven M. Rybin. All Rights Reserved. 2 This dissertation titled The Historical Thought of Film: Terrence Malick and Philosophical Cinema by STEVEN M. RYBIN has been approved for the School of Interdisciplinary Arts and the College of Fine Arts by Vladimir L. Marchenkov Associate Professor of Interdisciplinary Arts Charles A. McWeeny Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT RYBIN, STEVEN M., Ph.D., June 2009, Interdisciplinary Arts The Historical Thought of Film: Terrence Malick and Philosophical Cinema (484 pp.) Director of Dissertation: Vladimir L. Marchenkov Previous scholarly work on the director Terrence Malick has argued that his films – Badlands (1973), Days of Heaven (1978), The Thin Red Line (1998) and The New World (2005) – are, in varying ways, philosophical. This assessment is usually made via an analysis of the films in relation to a single philosophical metatext (frequently the work of Martin Heidegger) that transcends the concrete historical situation of both the given film and the historically existing viewer. This study seeks to intervene in this critical literature by theorizing an approach for understanding Malick’s films as works that do not merely illustrate already articulated philosophical themes but that rather function, in dialogue with the spectator, as an invitation to generate creative and historically situated meaning. The film medium, this study argues, is uniquely philosophical in that it exists in time (via the gradual entropy of the celluloid film print) as does the finite, historically embodied spectator.

  • “Sherman Was Right” the Experience of Aef Soldiers in the Great War
    “SHERMAN WAS RIGHT” THE EXPERIENCE OF AEF SOLDIERS IN THE GREAT WAR DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Edward A. Gutiérrez, B.A., M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Geoffrey Parker, Adviser Professor John F. Guilmartin Jr. _______________________________ Professor Peter R. Mansoor Adviser History Graduate Program Copyright by Edward A. Gutiérrez 2008 ABSTRACT When the United States declared war in the spring of 1917, American men went to war with idyllic visions of warfare. This study explores the state of mind of the AEF soldier during the Great War, an issue that has challenged scholars in the field since the troops returned home. With the use of Military Service Records (MSRs or questionnaires) issued in 1919 from four states as its core source, this dissertation argues that the American cultural glorification of warfare created an impetuous doughboy, who believed war was a game and the path to manhood. Employing these neglected firsthand descriptions of the war in the uncensored words of veterans provides understanding of American military identity; it removes the uniform and studies the individual – whether it is an aristocratic New Englander who hungered to prove his masculinity or an African American blacksmith fighting for his equality. Cultural differences aside, the naïveté of the doughboy was overwhelming; he believed the war would be an enjoyable adventure, but learned General Sherman was right – war is hell. ii Dedicated to my mother and my adviser Professor Geoffrey Parker iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I have engaged in this project for almost a decade and have incurred a number of debts to many amiable scholars, archivists and librarians.
