  • 5.6 Significant Supreme Court Decisions
    5.6 Significant Supreme Court Decisions Standard 5.6: Significant Supreme Court Decisions Research, analyze and report orally or in writing on one area [5.6a, 5.6b, or 5.6c below] in which Supreme Court Decisions have made significant changes over time in citizens’ lives. (Massachusetts Curriculum Framework for History and Social Studies) [8.T5.6] Building Democracy for All 1 The Supreme Court at Dusk, by Joe Ravi, licensed CC BY-SA 3.0 FOCUS QUESTION: How Do Landmark Supreme Court Cases Impact Our Lives? A landmark case is a case that has an “lasting effect on the application of a certain law, often concerning your individual rights and liberties” (Judicial Learning Center, 2015, para. 2). Most major issues in United States history have been the subject of a landmark decision by the Supreme Court. In just the past 70 years: Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka (1954) declared that the doctrine of separate but equal is inherently unequal; Gideon v. Wainwright (1963) gave anyone charged with a crime the right to an attorney whether they could afford one or not; Miranda v. Arizona (1966) said that police officers must advise prisoners of their rights before being questioned; Tinker V. Des Moines (1969) declared students have free speech rights in schools if they are not disrupting the educational process; Roe v. Wade (1973) established a woman’s constitutional right Building Democracy for All 2 to an abortion; and Obergefell v. Hodges (2015) legalized same-sex marriage in all 50 states. How has the Supreme Court interpreted the rights of individuals in key areas of people's lives? The modules for this topic consider that question in terms of six areas of rights in conflict: the First Amendment, due process, the flag and the Pledge of Allegiance, school prayer, national security and gun control.

  • Race and College Football in the Southwest, 1947-1976
    UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA GRADUATE COLLEGE DESEGREGATING THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE: RACE AND COLLEGE FOOTBALL IN THE SOUTHWEST, 1947-1976 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE FACULTY in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By CHRISTOPHER R. DAVIS Norman, Oklahoma 2014 DESEGREGATING THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE: RACE AND COLLEGE FOOTBALL IN THE SOUTHWEST, 1947-1976 A DISSERTATION APPROVED FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY BY ____________________________ Dr. Stephen H. Norwood, Chair ____________________________ Dr. Robert L. Griswold ____________________________ Dr. Ben Keppel ____________________________ Dr. Paul A. Gilje ____________________________ Dr. Ralph R. Hamerla © Copyright by CHRISTOPHER R. DAVIS 2014 All Rights Reserved. Acknowledgements In many ways, this dissertation represents the culmination of a lifelong passion for both sports and history. One of my most vivid early childhood memories comes from the fall of 1972 when, as a five year-old, I was reading the sports section of one of the Dallas newspapers at my grandparents’ breakfast table. I am not sure how much I comprehended, but one fact leaped clearly from the page—Nebraska had defeated Army by the seemingly incredible score of 77-7. Wild thoughts raced through my young mind. How could one team score so many points? How could they so thoroughly dominate an opponent? Just how bad was this Army outfit? How many touchdowns did it take to score seventy-seven points? I did not realize it at the time, but that was the day when I first understood concretely the concepts of multiplication and division. Nebraska scored eleven touchdowns I calculated (probably with some help from my grandfather) and my love of football and the sports page only grew from there.
