Boesch University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science, 2020 Horns Point Rd, Cambridge, MD 21613 USA; Author email: [email protected] ABSTRACT: I spent my nearly 50—year career in marine science working at marine laboratories, most of that as a chief executive officer. So, it is appropriate that my reflections are about marine laboratories, rather than my own science. After relating my career course, I turn my attention to the history and development of marine laboratories along the U.S. coast of the Gulf of Mexico (GOM). Surprisingly, the region’s first laboratory was actually constructed in 1903 at Cameron, LA, but operated less than a decade before closing. It was not until after World War II that the university—affiliated marine laboratories of today developed in each of the states and have contributed greatly to our understanding of coastal environments. They now have impressive facilities and operate the region’s GOM research fleet, participate in the global advancement of science, educate and inform a broad spectrum of society, and are at the front line in debates over important public policies. Marine laboratories must strive to achieve excellence in scientific discovery, integration, application and life—long education, while overcoming challenges due to relative isolation from the universities or agencies with which they are affiliated and their vulnerability to coastal climatic events and changes. The GOM marine laboratories have an unprecedented opportunity to contribute to the rehabilitation of degraded ecosystems and recovery of their living resources. They also have a responsibility to assist coastal citizens transition the energy economy to limit climate change and adapt to the changes that do occur. More than ever, their science must be relevant, credible, salient and useful.

  • History of Intellectual Culture
    History of Intellectual Culture www.ucalgary.ca/hic/ · ISSN 1492-7810 2001 God, Darwin, and Loyalty in America: The University of Tennessee and the Great Professor Trial of 19231 Kimberly Marinucci Abstract This article examines an academic freedom controversy at the University of Tennessee that led to the dismissals of seven faculty members. In the 1920s, evolution teaching in public education pitted the religious fundamentalists against advocates of science and intellectual freedom. The battle dramatized the meaning of these institutions as havens of democracy. In the 1920s, fears of Darwinism became intertwined with perceptions of citizenship and defi nitions of national loyalty. Events at this public university also highlight the politics of educational lead- ership. Finally, they foreshadow the dramatic courtroom showdown in 1925 in Dayton, Tennessee. The Scopes trial constitutes a defi ning historical moment of the twentieth century and symbolizes the resistance to cultural change. Such a treatment advances the current literature by highlighting the greater vulnerability of academic freedom at state institutions determined by economic dependence. As well, it incorporates developments at other institutions and the role of national higher education associations. Additional sources from the AAUP and the ACLU place Tennessee in the broader context of the cause of civil liberties. In 1922, Dr. Jesse Sprowls, Professor of Secondary Education at the University of Tennessee adopted James Harvey Robinson’s The Mind in the Making (1921) for a course he planned to teach. The text drew paral- lels between the mental development of humans and Darwin’s theory of evolution, the latter representing a loaded issue among state legislators who held the power of the purse over public university appropriations.

  • Conservation, Gender, and the Tennessee Valley Authority During the New Deal
    ABSTRACT BRADSHAW, LAURA HEPP. Naturalized Citizens: Conservation, Gender, and the Tennessee Valley Authority during the New Deal. (Under the direction of Katherine Mellen Charron and Matthew Morse Booker). Broadly, this thesis is an examination of the conservation movement and the Tennessee Valley Authority from the Progressive Era through the New Deal. The creation of the Tennessee Valley Authority in 1933 had been premised upon earlier efforts to capture the river’s power and harness it to meet social needs. Harnessing hydroelectricity to remedy social and economic conditions in the South required both environmental engineering techniques and social engineering methods. By placing women at the center of the story, both in terms of their activism in bringing a conservation plan in the Tennessee River Valley into fruition, and in terms of the gendered implications of the Tennessee Valley Authority’s power policy, this thesis seeks to reexamine the invisible role that the construction of power politics had on the South, and the nation as a whole.

In the 18th and 19th centuries, libraries were personal collections of books for the elite. Volumes on philosophy, law, natural history, science, religion, and history lined the bookshelves of those who could afford books and—what’s more important—those who could actually read them. During the past century, library privileges became an Ameri- can right. A number of philanthropists from Andrew Carnegie to Bill Gates contributed to the changing nature of libraries, both physical and virtual. Our perceptions of libraries have changed constantly during the 20th century as collections became more centralized, stan- dardized, and accessible. At the beginning of the 21st century there is another wave of change for libraries.

Owen All Rights Reserved ii Acknowledgements This project would not have been possible without the generous financial support of Vanderbilt University. The funding I received from the Graduate School and the History Department enabled me to conduct research in twenty-five collections housed in twelve different archives, libraries, and organizations throughout the southeast. I am also indebted to the Harry S. Truman Library Institute for National and International Affairs for providing me with a year- long service-free fellowship that allowed me to finish writing and revising my dissertation. I would like thank the faculty in the History Department for their guidance and support during my graduate studies. In particular, I would like to thank my advisor, Gary Gerstle, for nurturing my love of history and politics by allowing me to explore my own interests and for helping me along my odyssey with the Tennessee Valley Authority. His ability to ask probing questions and provide a much-needed nudge in the right direction has made me a better historian. Moreover, I owe my progress as writer to his willingness to offer constructive comments on an endless supply of seminar papers and dissertation drafts.

  • Download a Pdf Version of the Campus Names Committee
    Campus Names Committee Report on Current Campus Building Names September 2020 Charge: Review named spaces on our campus to ensure each illuminates a legacy that continues to reflect positively on our campus. Conduct an historical review of every named building and major outdoor space to ensure the names are not associated with the confederacy or racist groups such as the KKK. Metric: In consultation with other universities reviewing this type of campus information, the majority are focusing the scope of their review to the individual(s) and/or families for which the building or campus spaces were named. Limiting the investigation to that individual(s) and/or family name and not expanding the research to extended relatives, who were not involved with the campus donation or contribution. Except in the case where the individual or family’s contribution to the university were in direct relation to profiting from enslaved individuals or racist activities. General Recommendations: ● Be intentional when renaming spaces, look for opportunities to recognize marginalized individuals or groups contributions to campus. ● Investigate other marginalized groups that also may have been impacted by the growth of the university. ● Address, and educate about, UT’s segregated past and relationship with HBUCs Fisk and Knoxville College. ● Ensure that the name change process and Taskforce on Naming’s reports to the Office of the Chancellor are acknowledged and documented within the University Archives. Overall Spaces Recommendations: The committee found the three building names that warranted additional action: ● Recommended for renaming: Ames Plantation partnership UTIA- Ames Plantation is privately owned by Hobart Ames Foundation.
