  • The Prez Quiz Answers
    PREZ TRIVIAL QUIZ AND ANSWERS Below is a Presidential Trivia Quiz and Answers. GRADING CRITERIA: 33 questions, 3 points each, and 1 free point. If the answer is a list which has L elements and you get x correct, you get x=L points. If any are wrong you get 0 points. You can take the quiz one of three ways. 1) Take it WITHOUT using the web and see how many you can get right. Take 3 hours. 2) Take it and use the web and try to do it fast. Stop when you want, but your score will be determined as follows: If R is the number of points and T 180R is the number of minutes then your score is T + 1: If you get all 33 right in 60 minutes then you get a 100. You could get more than 100 if you do it faster. 3) The answer key has more information and is interesting. Do not bother to take the quiz and just read the answer key when I post it. Much of this material is from the books Hail to the chiefs: Political mis- chief, Morals, and Malarky from George W to George W by Barbara Holland and Bland Ambition: From Adams to Quayle- the Cranks, Criminals, Tax Cheats, and Golfers who made it to Vice President by Steve Tally. I also use Wikipedia. There is a table at the end of this document that has lots of information about presidents. THE QUIZ BEGINS! 1. How many people have been president without having ever held prior elected office? Name each one and, if they had former experience in government, what it was.

  • Top of Page Interview Information--Different Title
    Oral History Center University of California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, California The Freedom to Marry Oral History Project Tyler Deaton Tyler Deaton on the New Hampshire Campaign and Securing Republican Support for the Freedom to Marry Interviews conducted by Martin Meeker in 2015 Copyright © 2017 by The Regents of the University of California ii Since 1954 the Oral History Center of the Bancroft Library, formerly the Regional Oral History Office, has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the nation. Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Tyler Deaton dated July 6, 2016. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes. All literary rights in the manuscript, including the right to publish, are reserved to The Bancroft Library of the University of California, Berkeley.

  • Queer Refugeeism: Constructions of Race, Gender, and Sexuality in the Hmong Diaspora
    Queer Refugeeism: Constructions of Race, Gender, and Sexuality in the Hmong Diaspora A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Kong Pheng Pha IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Jigna Desai, Co-Advisor Erika Lee, Co-Advisor August 2017 © Kong Pheng Pha 2017 Acknowledgments As I reflect on this long-drawn-out and arduous journey towards the completion of my Ph.D. degree, I cannot help but feel bittersweet and downhearted all at once. It was never my plans to attend graduate school, and I had only learned about what a Ph.D. really was right before graduating from college. I am able to be where I am now through a combination of luck, perseverance, guidance, mentorship, encouragement, friendships, and love from others. Graduate school so far has been one of the most challenging times of my life, especially as I struggled to make time for my friends, family, and loved ones with a busy schedule. I was always writing and reading at random and unusual times: night, day, midnight, and mid-day. I was financially—and at times emotionally— unstable, during college and my early days of graduate school, and relied on the assistance of my parents, siblings, friends, colleagues, and mentors for all kinds of support and care. However, the cruelest and most painful thing of all was being a working-class, queer scholar of color going through the tortuous feelings of isolation, self-doubt, anger, fear, shame, selfishness, restlessness, and uselessness that came with being in a perpetual cycle of graduate school and writing a seemingly unending dissertation.

My family and I bought our first home south of the Trinity River over a decade ago, and we are proud to call Oak Cliff home. I love every single quirky, fun thing about our neighborhoods. I especially love that we’re a tight community – a small town – in the heart of a world-class city. I’m running for City Council because I want to give residents and entrepreneurs the tools they need to succeed, ensure that our diverse neighborhoods and historic structures are protected and cherished, and ensure that opportunities, education, and city services are top notch and available to everyone.
