Our programs offer students value-added opportunities promoting their abilities as leaders, innovators, policy makers and Michael Vayda entrepreneurs to make them first-choice candidates of prospective employers. We are proud of our students and their accomplishments. The DISCOVERY undergraduate journal highlight just a few of those value-added learning opportunities by featuring results of research projects completed in partnership with faculty mentors. The journal encourages students to engage beyond the classroom, offers an outlet to share results and findings in a citable publication, and provides a service to the college, the uni- versity, our friends and supporters, and society as a whole. We encourage student research by awarding undergraduate research grants. Our students have been competitive for research and travel grants awarded by the Honors College and the Arkansas Department of Higher Education. Many projects are designed to meet the requirements for an honors thesis in the Bumpers College Honors Program and some have been funded by our Undergraduate Creative Projects/Research Grants Program. We are pleased to present the exceptional work of our students. This year’s DISCOVERY is the largest in the history of the publication, which is a testament to the quality of our students, our faculty mentors and their research. Congratulations to the student authors, and thank you to the faculty mentors and editors of this year’s journal.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

  • Twelve Elections That Shaped a Century I Tawdry Populism, Timid Progressivism, 1900-1930
    Arkansas Politics in the 20th Century: Twelve Elections That Shaped a Century I Tawdry Populism, Timid Progressivism, 1900-1930 One-gallus Democracy Not with a whimper but a bellow did the 20th century begin in Arkansas. The people’s first political act in the new century was to install in the governor’s office, for six long years, a politician who was described in the most graphic of many colorful epigrams as “a carrot-headed, red-faced, loud-mouthed, strong-limbed, ox-driving mountaineer lawyer that has come to Little Rock to get a reputation — a friend of the fellow who brews forty-rod bug juice back in the mountains.”1 He was the Tribune of the Haybinders, the Wild Ass of the Ozarks, Karl Marx for the Hillbillies, the Stormy Petrel, Messiah of the Rednecks, and King of the Cockleburs. Jeff Davis talked a better populism than he practiced. In three terms, 14 years overall in statewide office, Davis did not leave an indelible mark on the government or the quality of life of the working people whom he extolled and inspired, but he dominated the state thoroughly for 1 This quotation from the Helena Weekly World appears in slightly varied forms in numerous accounts of Davis's yers. It appeared in the newspaper in the spring of 1899 and appears in John Gould Fletcher, Arkansas (Chapel Hill, NC: University of North Carolina Press, 1947) p. 2. This version, which includes the phrase "that has come to Little Rock to get a reputation" appears in Raymond Arsenault, The Wild Ass of the Ozarks: Jeff Davis and the Social Bases of Southern Politics (Philadelphia: Temple University Press, 1984), p.

  • The Political Styles of Bumpers and Pryor: Models of Representation for Arkansas
    The Political Styles of Bumpers and Pryor: Models of Representation for Arkansas Art English University of Arkansas at Little Rock This article examines the political styles of former U.S. Senators Dale Bumpers and David Pryor, both from Arkansas. It argues that both Pryor and Bumpers exhibited a representational style different from those of their regional colleagues and that this difference was in large part a product of the particular political culture of Arkansas. It also argues that the representational style of Bumpers and Pryor, intertwined with Arkansas’s political culture, has subsequently had a strong influence on the political and representational styles exhibited by both of Arkansas’s current United States Senators and that this Bumpers\Pryor model is likely to continue to influence the presentational and representational style of future members of the Arkansas congressional delegation. Introduction This article addresses the concept of senatorial political and representational style by focusing on two of Arkansas’s most renowned United States Senators: Dale Bumpers and David Pryor. Political style is particularly difficult to conceptualize and operationally apply because each political actor has unique political abilities and skills (English, 1993, 1997). Despite this intrinsic difficulty, congressional scholars have found that attention to stylistic differences across members provides rich insight into the institutional and member behaviors of Congress and that theory- building is not impossible (Mayhew; Sinclair; and Fenno, 1978). In addition, scholars have found that members of Congress pay attention to the norms and values of their constituencies’ political cultures in developing their representational styles. In particular, Richard Fenno has written most perceptively on the issues of political and representational styles in his classic work Home StyIe: House Members in Their District.
