    HOOVER DIGEST RESEARCH + OPINION ON PUBLIC POLICY WINTER 2019 NO. 1 THE HOOVER INSTITUTION • STANFORD UNIVERSITY The Hoover Institution on War, Revolution and Peace was established at Stanford University in 1919 by Herbert Hoover, a member of Stanford’s pioneer graduating class of 1895 and the thirty-first president of the United States. Created as a library and repository of documents, the Institution approaches its centennial with a dual identity: an active public policy research center and an internationally recognized library and archives. The Institution’s overarching goals are to: » Understand the causes and consequences of economic, political, and social change » Analyze the effects of government actions and public policies » Use reasoned argument and intellectual rigor to generate ideas that nurture the formation of public policy and benefit society Herbert Hoover’s 1959 statement to the Board of Trustees of Stanford University continues to guide and define the Institution’s mission in the twenty-first century: This Institution supports the Constitution of the United States, its Bill of Rights, and its method of representative government. Both our social and economic sys- tems are based on private enterprise, from which springs initiative and ingenuity. Ours is a system where the Federal Government should undertake no govern- mental, social, or economic action, except where local government, or the people, cannot undertake it for themselves. The overall mission of this Institution is, from its records, to recall the voice of experience against the making of war, and by the study of these records and their publication to recall man’s endeavors to make and preserve peace, and to sustain for America the safeguards of the American way of life.

  • Yellowstone National Park! Renowned Snowcapped Eagle Peak
    YELLOWSTONE THE FIRST NATIONAL PARK THE HISTORY BEHIND YELLOWSTONE Long before herds of tourists and automobiles crisscrossed Yellowstone’s rare landscape, the unique features comprising the region lured in the West’s early inhabitants, explorers, pioneers, and entrepreneurs. Their stories helped fashion Yellowstone into what it is today and initiated the birth of America’s National Park System. Native Americans As early as 10,000 years ago, ancient inhabitants dwelled in northwest Wyoming. These small bands of nomadic hunters wandered the country- side, hunting the massive herds of bison and gath- ering seeds and berries. During their seasonal travels, these predecessors of today’s Native American tribes stumbled upon Yellowstone and its abundant wildlife. Archaeologists have discov- ered domestic utensils, stone tools, and arrow- heads indicating that these ancient peoples were the first humans to discover Yellowstone and its many wonders. As the region’s climate warmed and horses Great Fountain Geyser. NPS Photo by William S.

  • “Big Bad Wolf” to Yellowstone National Park
    Bounding Through Barriers: The Sensational Reintroduction of the “Big Bad Wolf” to Yellowstone National Park Amber Lee, Jillian Mabasa, Keari Ong Junior Division Documentary Process Paper: 499 NHD Process Paper 2020 When we first began looking for a topic to study, we had difficulties finding a topic that matched our interests. It was not until we sought help from our teacher, explaining our interests revolved around animals and the environment, that we managed to find a topic that appealed to us. Keari, who was studying a different animal-related topic, joined our group later on. The wolves and their story proved to be a complex and captivating topic the more we looked into it. As we began our research, we started by building up a solid foundation, using a variety of informative texts and websites. Over time, as we looked deeper into how our topic connected to the theme, we discovered more primary sources, such as the Endangered Species Act, and newspapers such as Great Falls Tribune. Some of our most valuable sources were books; in particular, Wildlife in Shiretoko and Yellowstone ​ National Parks, published by the Shiretoko Nature Foundation and contributed to by ​ experts, made connections between Yellowstone and a similar park. Other sources helped us understand opposing perspectives, such as the documentary The Bitter Fight over ​ America’s Wolves by Elliott Woods. In addition, we conducted an interview with Dr. ​ Mark Boyce, a professor of ecology at the University of Alberta, which opened us up to the reintroduction’s other impacts We also interviewed Elizabeth Taylor, a National Park Education Ranger at Yellowstone.
