F OSTER , J R ., AND S ARAH W HITMER F OSTER URING Reconstruction, many northern men and women D contributed to Florida’s social, political, and economic life. Their efforts—and those of the northern institutions and organi- zations that supported them—provided immediate assistance to the needy and resulted, as well, in the establishment of churches, schools, and other institutions that endured the test of time. Nonetheless, most Floridians have gained only a one-dimen- sional understanding of the contributions of Northerners during Reconstruction, usually through the highly critical eyes of histo- rians such as William Watson Davis. Of them, Davis, a disciple of Columbia University’s Dunning School of Reconstruction his- toriography, wrote: “The failure of the Republican government was . incident to the operations of a lot of self-seeking, reckless, shrewd, and grafting politicians, who were in local politics for all they could squeeze out of it, who controlled, by fair means or foul, the ignorant and often vicious negro majorities and therefore controlled the government and therefore the public purse-strings.“1 Within the past two decades, a number of revisionist histo- rians have examined Davis’s assessment. Most notably, Jerrell H. Shofner’s work, Nor Is It Over Yet: Florida in the Era of Reconstruc- tion, 1863-1877, has reviewed the complicated nature of the Re- construction era and described the good intentions of Northern- ers such as Governor Harrison Reed.2 Others have begun to note John T. Foster, Jr., is associate professor of anthropology, Florida Agricul- tural and Mechanical University. Sarah Whitmer Foster is associate profes- sor of anthropology and human services, Florida Agricultural and Mechan- ical University. 1.

    Barnard College Office of Institutional Funding December 4, 2018 Grant Opportunities & News You Can Use Hello Barnard faculty, We aim in our profiles section to post grant opportunities approximately three months ahead of their due date to give you plenty of time to plan, plot, and juggle the various components of a grant proposal. That works well for the many organizations who maintain consistent dates year over year or who announce deadlines with a commensurate lead time. Some, however, announce deadlines at shorter intervals, and that seems especially true during this season when one year rolls into the next. Several opportunities in this newsletter have deadlines in early January through February, so be mindful of the timing. The American Chemical Society takes the featured role in this latest Inside this issue edition of the newsletter. Our Sage Advice draws from Colorado State University’s “Principles of Effective Grantsmanship” blog series.

Buenger December 2005 Major Subject: History iii ABSTRACT The Battle of Sailor’s Creek: A Study in Leadership. (December 2005) Cloyd Allen Smith Jr., B.A., Slippery Rock University Chair: Dr. Joseph Dawson The Battle of Sailor’s Creek, 6 April 1865, has been overshadowed by Lee’s surrender at Appomattox Court House several days later, yet it is an example of the Union military war machine reaching its apex of war making ability during the Civil War. Through Ulysses S. Grant’s leadership and that of his subordinates, the Union armies, specifically that of the Army of the Potomac, had been transformed into a highly motivated, organized and responsive tool of war, led by confident leaders who understood their commander’s intent and were able to execute on that intent with audacious initiative in the absence of further orders. After Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia escaped from Petersburg and Richmond on 2 April 1865, Grant’s forces chased after Lee’s forces with the intent of destroying the mighty and once feared iv protector of the Confederate States in the hopes of bringing a swift end to the long war.
