Because many scholars of that period were members of monastic orders, the academic costume resembles ecclesiastical dress. A uniform code for academic costumes was drafted by an intercollegiate commission in 1893 and has since been adopted by the majority of colleges and universities in the United States.

Zeh, Ph.D., Dean, Graduate School December 2019 i Abstract B. H. Roberts presented information to the leadership of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in January of 1922 that fundamentally challenged the entire premise of their religious beliefs. New research shows that in addition to church leadership, this information was also presented during the neXt few months to a select group of highly educated Mormon men and women outside of church hierarchy. This group represented many aspects of Mormon belief, different areas of eXpertise, and varying approaches to dealing with challenging information. Their stories create a beautiful tapestry of Mormon life in the transition years from polygamy, frontier life, and resistance to statehood, assimilation, and respectability. A study of the people involved illuminates an important, overlooked, underappreciated, and eXciting period of Mormon history.

  • Article by Gordon B
    Gordon B. Hinckley, right, of the Church Radio, Publicity and Mission Literature Committee, examining a 35mm film with his former mission president, Elder Joseph F. Merrill, center, of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles. Hinckley and a cadre of other young multitasking enthusiasts were responsible for pioneering various forms of media and for establishing a culture in which slide shows, radio plays, exhibits, and cinema would be used in Church education and publicity. LDS Church Archives, © Intellectual Reserve, Inc. A History of Mormon Cinema: Second Wave V 45 The Second Wave: Home Cinema (1929–1953) The Second Wave differed from the First in various respects. For instance, by the 1930s the global film industry was well past its primitive pioneer era, and, within Mormonism, the increased sophistication of Second Wave films reflects this progress. In addition, technical advances (principally sound, but also color) renewed enthusiasm about the medium, both generally and among the Latter-day Saints. While this optimism did propel institutional and independent Mormon filmmaking toward some major projects, the decade of the 1930s—and to a lesser extent the 1940s— has generally been described for its lack of Mormon film production. Such a perception, however, does not give full credit to changes and growth in underlying areas of Mormon cinema that created a sustainable cinematic culture that would last throughout the ensuing years. Indeed, the 1930s and 1940s were decades in which both the mainstream film industry and the LDS Church itself reinvented the relationship between Mormonism and cinema. Due to Hollywood’s adoption of the Hays Production Code and the aforementioned loss of Mormonism’s sensationalism, mainstream depic- tions of Mormonism changed radically to the positive in the 1930s.

  • Health, Medicine, and Power in the Salt Lake Valley, Utah
    HEALTH, MEDICINE, AND POWER IN THE SALT LAKE VALLEY, UTAH, 1869-1945 by Benjamin Michael Cater A dissertation submitted to the faculty of The University of Utah in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History The University of Utah December 2012 Copyright © Benjamin Michael Cater 2012 All Rights Reserved The University of Utah Graduate School STATEMENT OF DISSERTATION APPROVAL The dissertation of Benjamin Michael Cater has been approved by the following supervisory committee members: W. Paul Reeve , Chair 8/13/2012 Date Approved Eric Hinderaker , Member 8/13/2012 Date Approved Matthew Basso , Member 8/13/2012 Date Approved Rebecca Horn , Member 8/13/2012 Date Approved Stephen Tatum , Member 8/13/2012 Date Approved and by Isabel Moreira , Chair of the Department of History and by Charles A. Wight, Dean of The Graduate School. ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the social history of medicine in the Salt Lake Valley, Utah, from the late nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century. It contends that race and class played disproportionate roles in the creation and evolution of Progressive Era health reforms. White middle-class residents embraced new scientific theories about physical health to bring about much needed programs in public sanitation and vaccination, hospital care, welfare services for the poor, and workplace safety legislation—all of which became necessary as Utah experienced increased immigration, industrialization, and urbanization at the turn of the century. Although these programs sometimes became embroiled in religious disputes between Mormons (members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) and non-Mormon “gentiles,” after Utah statehood in 1896 and efforts by Mormons to Americanize, religious tension diminished to allow powerful whites to implement and unequally benefit from these programs.

Woods uring the nineteenth century, Mormons emphasized the doctrine of gathering to Zion, a concept introduced to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) a few months after it was officially established in Fayette, New York, in 1830 under the direction of the Mormon prophet, Joseph Smith. After Smith’s death, his prophetic successor, Brigham Young, established a new gathering place for the Latter-day Saints in 1847, and thereafter the route to their new American Zion in the Salt Lake Valley was altered.1 Although for the next four years Mormon European Demigrants continued to disembark at New Orleans and head up the Mississippi River to St. Louis, instead of continuing north to their previous gathering place at Nauvoo, Illinois, they traveled west on the Missouri River to Winter Quarters, Nebraska, and Kanesville, Iowa (later known as Council Bluffs, Iowa), the frontier outfitting points for Mormons during those years.2 After the explosion of the steamboat Saluda in 1852, when many Mormon emigrants were killed and injured during a treacherous ride on the Missouri River, church leaders decided to extend travel up the Mississippi River past St. Louis to Keokuk, Iowa, just a dozen miles south of Nauvoo.

  • Commencement Program 2011, University of Pennsylvania
    Commencement Monday, May 16, 2011 May Monday, th 255 255th Commencement Monday, May 16, 2011 The University of Pennsylvania KEEPING FRANKLIN’S PROMISE In the words of one elegiac tribute, “Great men have two lives: one which occurs while they work on this earth; a second which begins at the day of their death and continues as long as their ideas and conceptions remain powerful.” These words befit the great Benjamin Franklin, whose inventions, innovations, ideas, writings, and public works continue to shape our thinking and renew the Republic he helped to create and the institutions he founded, including the University of Pennsylvania. Nowhere does Franklin feel more contemporary, more revolutionary, and more alive than at the University of Pennsylvania. His startling vision of a secular, nonsectarian Academy that would foster an “Inclination join’d with an Ability to serve Mankind, one’s Country, Friends and Family” has never ceased to challenge Penn to redefine the scope and mission of the modern American university. When pursued vigorously and simultaneously, the two missions – developing the inclination to do good and the ability to do well – merge to help form a more perfect university that educates more capable citizens for our democracy. Penn has embodied and advanced Franklin’s revolutionary vision for 271 years. Throughout its history, Penn has extended the frontiers of higher learning and research to produce graduates and scholars whose work has enriched the nation and all of humanity. The modern liberal arts curriculum as we know it can trace its roots to Franklin’s innovation to have Penn students study international commerce and foreign languages.

  • The Mormons in Nazi Germany
    THE MORMONS IN NAZI GERMANY: HISTORY AND MEMORY A Dissertation by DAVID CONLEY NELSON Submitted to the Office of Graduate Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Approved by: Chair of Committee, Arnold P. Krammer Committee Members, Chester S. L. Dunning Walter D. Kamphoefner Peter J. Hugill D. Michael Quinn Head of Department David Vaught December 2012 Major Subject: History Copyright 2012 David Conley Nelson ABSTRACT This dissertation studies a small American religious group that survived unscathed during the Third Reich. Some fifteen thousand members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the Mormons, lived under National Socialism. Unlike persecuted Jews and Jehovah’s Witnesses, and other small American-based sects that suffered severe restrictions, the Mormons worshiped freely under Hitler’s regime. They survived by stressing congruence between church doctrine and Nazi dogma. Mormons emphasized their interest in genealogical research and sports, sent their husbands into the Wehrmacht and their sons into the Hitler Youth, and prayed for a Nazi victory in wartime. Mormon leaders purged all Jewish references from hymnals, lesson plans and liturgical practices, and shunned their few Jewish converts. They resurrected a doctrinal edict that required deference to civil authority, which the Mormons had not always obeyed. Some Mormons imagined fanciful connections with Nazism, to the point that a few believed Hitler admired their church, copied its welfare program, and organized the Nazi party along Mormon lines. This dissertation builds upon Christine Elizabeth King’s theory of a common Weltanschauung between Mormons and Nazis, and Steven Carter’s description of the Mormons’ “accommodation” with National Socialism.
