The law school infrastructure was over ten years old. Due to rapid changes in technology and competition from other law schools, state of the art pedagogy and facilities in 1974 were, by 1988, in need of modification and updating. Bringing the library into the information age and expanding its capacity stood at the head of the agenda. Dean Lawrence Raful Lawrence Raful earned his undergraduate degree at the University of Cal- ifornia at San Diego in 1972 and his law degree at the University of Denver College of Law in 1975. He taught Professional Responsibility at the Univer- sity of Southern California Law Center and served as associate dean in charge of admissions, financial aid, registration, placement, and student counseling.

Ports* On April 1, 1926, the House of Representatives of the United States Congress, after a series of committee investigations covering a period of more than a year, and after a vigorous and very earnest debate of three days duration,' resolved by a vote of nearly five to one2 to prefer impeachment charges against George W. English, United States district judge for the eastern district of Illinois. A few days later the charges were presented to the Senate, but that body, on account of the pressure of other matters, postponed the trial of the case until a special session of the Senate called to meet on Novem- ber 10, 1926. In this way the ponderous machinery of impeachment was set in motion, and, but for the recent resignation of the respondent, we would have witnessed the tenth1 great national trial, with the ninety-six senators sitting as judge and jury and the House of Repre- sentatives, through its board of managers, adding to its inquisitorial functions previously performed, those of prosecutor on behalf of the nation.

  • The Jungle and the Debate Over Federal Meat Inspection in 1906
    N9-716-045 FEBRUARY 10, 2016 DAVID MOSS MARC CAMPASANO The Jungle and the Debate over Federal Meat Inspection in 1906 In early June 1906, the House Committee on Agriculture grilled the president’s investigators over which end of a dead hog had fallen into a Chicago slaughterhouse bathroom. President Theodore Roosevelt had sent the two investigators to verify allegations of unsanitary working conditions and diseased meat that had appeared in Upton Sinclair’s recent novel, The Jungle. The investigators confirmed many of Sinclair’s assertions, and noted that they had seen “a hog that had just been killed, cleaned, washed, and started on its way to the cooling room fall from the sliding rail to a dirty wooden 1 floor and slide part way into a filthy men’s privy” before being hung, uncleaned, with the other meat. The Agriculture Committee, which included many representatives friendly to the meatpacking industry, demanded details about the dropped hog and its subsequent processing. The hearing was part of a two-month congressional debate over possible meat inspection legislation, brought about by an unusual alliance between Roosevelt and Sinclair. The president, who sought to rein in industrial monopolies, had taken advantage of The Jungle’s popularity to campaign for a law to contain the “beef trust,” a small group of meatpackers that dominated the industry. Not long before, however, Roosevelt had decried writers like Sinclair for “raking the muck” and engaging in dangerous sensationalism.2 Attempting to explain his willingness to embrace Sinclair’s work in this case, the president would later say: [I]n the beef packing business I found that Sinclair was of real use.

  • 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.

  • A Story of Highway Development in Nebraska
    A STORY OF HIGHWAY DEVELOPMENT IN NEBRASKA By George E. Koster Published by the Department of Roads Lincoln, Nebraska Revised 1997 BACKGROUND "A Story of Highway Development in Nebraska" (Revised 1997) is an updated and expanded version of "A Story of Highway Development in Nebraska" (1986), the latter being published by the Department of Roads in December of that year. The text is a compilation of information taken from a myriad of sources and leans heavily on the author's judgement and experience. And, since the entire undertaking was accomplished on a part-time basis, footnotes were omitted for simplicity of publication. In instances where the author may have used brief passages written by another, without using quotation marks or giving that person proper credit, forgiveness is requested. The purpose of the text is not for personal acievement, literary merit, or financial gain. Rather, it is for purposes of history, education, and public information about the development of highways in Nebraska. THE AUTHOR George E. "Dutch" Koster, a fourth-generation Nebraskan and former Secretary to the State Highway Commission (1972-1975), was assigned to the Project Development Division at the Department of Roads headquarters in Lincoln. He was the author of the "Research Study on Corridor Preservation" (1973), "History of the Nebraska State Highway Commission" (1974, 1986, and 1992), "A Story of Highway Development in Nebraska" (1986), "A History of the Principal Executives of the State Highway Department" (1995), and "A Story of Highway Development in Nebraska" (Revised 1997). He passed away August 29, 1999, after a lengthy illness. i CONTENTS Chapter Page Preface...................................................................................
