Departmental History After many years as a combined Department of History and Political Science, in 1935 the UNC Department of Political Science was established as an independent department in the College of Arts and Sciences. Given its background, initial instruction focused on the historical development of American political institutions and upon European and Latin American politics, an uncommon combination fostered by President Frank Porter Graham, whose international vision helped “globalize” the University before that word entered the English language. This continued in the years immediately after World War II, when the Department grew significantly alongside the growth in the student body, many members of which were beneficiaries of the G.I. bill. Included in this growth was a dramatic diversification of course offerings, eventually leading to today’s five subfields – American politics, international relations, comparative politics, political theory and methodology. While funding for the Department’s development came primarily from the people of North Carolina, both as individual gifts and as appropriations from the state legislature, additional support has come from private and federal government foundations, including a very substantial “Center of Excellence Grant” from the National Institutes of Health, the National Defense Education Art, and the Ford and Rockefeller Foundations. These grants helped the Department to assume major leadership roles in UNC’s interdisciplinary centers, including the Institute for Research in Social Science and its Social Science Statistical Laboratory, plus all of the University’s area studies programs. Today’s Department seeks to build upon this history, first and foremost by providing an undergraduate education of the highest quality, fulfilling the University’s charter to “prepare the rising generation for the duties of life.” This can only be achieved by fostering creative research to expand our understanding of politics, broadly defined at the local, state, national and global levels.

  • The Colorblind Turn in Indian Country: Lumbee Indians, Civil Rights, and Tribal State Formation
    The Colorblind Turn in Indian Country: Lumbee Indians, Civil Rights, and Tribal State Formation by Harold Walker Elliott A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2019 Doctoral Committee: Professor Philip Deloria, Co-Chair, Harvard University Professor Matthew Lassiter, Co-Chair Associate Professor Matthew Countryman Professor Barbra Meek Professor Tiya Miles, Harvard University Harold Walker Elliott [email protected] ORCID iD 0000-0001-5387-3188 © Harold Walker Elliott 2019 DEDICATION To my father and mother, Hal and Lisa Elliott And for Lessie Sweatt McCloud, her ancestors, and her descendants ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation is the culmination of eight years of graduate study and nearly a decade of research, writing, and editing. The result is deeply imperfect. Its faults come from my many shortcomings as an author. For anything this project does accomplish, I owe credit to the many people who have helped me along the way. Completing this project would have been impossible without the love, support, and inspiration of my parents, Hal and Lisa Elliott. During my upbringing, they instilled the values that guided me through the moral choices that a project like this one entails. My mother and her family have always been the driving forces behind my research into Lumbee and American Indian history. My father, a reluctant physician, passed down his fondness for history and dream of writing it. In the many difficult moments over the past eight years, my parents steadied me with long hugs or reassuringly familiar, South Carolina-accented voices on the phone.

  • A Jewish Tour of the Carolinas
    THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA AT CHAPEL HILL THE COLLECTION OF NORTH CAROLINIANA PRESENTED BY Elizabeth and Walter J. Klein Cp296 K64j Preface You can tell a Jewish traveler by the way he checks into a hotel room, unpacks and automatically skims the local phonebook for Jewish names and places. His sense of history takes him to the nearest synagogue, where he looks for familiar names on the memorial plaques. His optimism shows when he sits down in a kosher restaurant and hopes to bump into a friend of a friend. When he looks at his U.S. map, he may be wise enough to discover the Carolinas, where Jewish population is generally enjoying healthy growth. Yet to thousands of Jewish travelers the Carolinas are unfamiliar territory. Motorists speed from New York to Florida, stop overnight at South of the Border, and are greeted in Miami with two questions: "So which way did you come?" and "How long did it take you?" This modest publication may change all that. Within the 85,829 square miles of these two states lie treasures for Jews of all ages, persuasions and personalities. Many of the following 54 destinations come as refreshing surprises even to Jewish people born and living in North and South Carolina. There are unbelievable stories (try #32), touching spots (#46), surprises (#35) and oddities (#52-54). You can find places where Jews gave to the communities they loved and places where communities honored the Jews they loved. When you opt to see all or most of these destinations, think about at least two days each in Charlotte and Charleston.

  • Did You Know? North Carolina
    Did You Know? North Carolina Discover the history, geography, and government of North Carolina. The Land and Its People The state is divided into three distinct topographical regions: the Coastal Plain, the Piedmont Plateau, and the Appalachian Mountains. The Coastal Plain affords opportunities for farming, fishing, recreation, and manufacturing. The leading crops of this area are bright-leaf tobacco, peanuts, soybeans, and sweet potatoes. Large forested areas, mostly pine, support pulp manufacturing and other forest-related industries. Commercial and sport fishing are done extensively on the coast, and thousands of tourists visit the state’s many beaches. The mainland coast is protected by a slender chain of islands known as the Outer Banks. The Appalachian Mountains—including Mount Mitchell, the highest peak in eastern America (6,684 feet)—add to the variety that is apparent in the state’s topography. More than 200 mountains rise 5,000 feet or more. In this area, widely acclaimed for its beauty, tourism is an outstanding business. The valleys and some of the hillsides serve as small farms and apple orchards; and here and there are business enterprises, ranging from small craft shops to large paper and textile manufacturing plants. The Piedmont Plateau, though dotted with many small rolling farms, is primarily a manufacturing area in which the chief industries are furniture, tobacco, and textiles. Here are located North Carolina’s five largest cities. In the southeastern section of the Piedmont—known as the Sandhills, where peaches grow in abundance—is a winter resort area known also for its nationally famous golf courses and stables.
