  • 5 You Were on Indian Land Alcatraz Island As Recalcitrant Memory Space Cynthia Duquette Smith and Teresa Bergman
    5 You Were on Indian Land Alcatraz Island as Recalcitrant Memory Space Cynthia Duquette Smith and Teresa Bergman Why do some memories “stick” with us, while others are more ephem- eral or utterly lost? This chapter explores the complicated relationships be- tween place, memory, and forgetting at one of the most striking tourist destinations in the United States, Alcatraz Island. We offer this research as a case study through which we can think about the staying power of memo- ries and examine how memories can be made more engaging and endur- ing. We also delineate the consequences for collective memory when sig- nificant events fall short of affixing themselves. Alcatraz Island, located in the San Francisco Bay, is “one of San Francisco’s must-see attractions,”1 pri- marily because of its colorful history as a federal penitentiary. But there is much more to Alcatraz than Al Capone and the Birdman, and much that makes it an ideal site for contemplating how memory works at locations with multiple noteworthy historical events. On Alcatraz Island, Native Ameri cans staged one of the most impor- tant civil disobedience events in their contentious history with the U.S. government. The nineteen-month occupation of the island by the Indi- ans of All Tribes remains unmatched in terms of improving U.S. gov- ernment policies toward Native Ameri cans. Yet, the fact that Alcatraz is hardly remembered for this momentous event is stunning. Approximately 1.3 million tourists visit the island annually, anticipating a tour through the bleak and cavernous once-notorious prison. They bring little, if any, under- standing of the importance of this site in Native Ameri can history.

Ivey History 533: Lost Kansas Communities Chapman Center for Rural Studies Kansas State University Dr. M. J. Morgan Fall 2015 This study examines Fort Aubrey, a Civil War-era frontier post in Syracuse Township, Hamilton County, and the men who served there. The findings are based upon government and archival documents, newspaper and magazine articles, personal reminiscences, and numerous survey works written on the subjects of the United States Army and the American frontier.

Note: This 1939 map was created by George Allen Root and later reproduced by the Kansas Turnpike Authority. The original drawing was compiled by Root and delineated by W. M. Hutchinson using information provided by the Kansas Historical Society. Introduction By the summer of 1864, Americans had been killing each other on an epic scale for three years. As the country tore itself apart in a “great civil war,” momentous battles were being waged at Mansfield, Atlanta, Cold Harbor, and a host of other locations. These killing grounds would become etched in history for their tales of bravery and sacrifice, but, in the West, there were only sporadic clashes between Federal and Confederate forces. Encounters at Valverde in New Mexico Territory, Mine Creek in Linn County, Kansas, and Sabine Pass in Texas were the exception rather than the norm.

Most of the returns are part of Record Group 94, Records of the Adjutant General's Office; the remainder is part of Record Group 393, Records of United States Army Continental Commands, 1821-1920, and Record Group 395, Records of United States Army Overseas Operations and Commands, 1898-1942. The commanding officer of every post, as well ad commanders of all other bodies of troops such as department, division, brigade, regiment, or detachment, was required by Army Regulations to submit a return (a type of personnel report) to The Adjutant General at specified intervals, usually monthly, on forms provided by that office. Several additions and modifications were made in the form over the years, but basically it was designed to show the units that were stationed at a particular post and their strength, the names and duties of the officers, the number of officers present and absent, a listing of official communications received, and a record of events. In the early 19th century the form used for the post return usually was the same as the one used for regimental or organizational returns. Printed forms were issued by the Adjutant General’s Office, but more commonly used were manuscript forms patterned after the printed forms.

    SOUTHERN MAINE COMMUNITY COLLEGE 2017-2018 SMCC FACTBOOK Published August 2018 pg. 48 SMCC FACTBOOK History of SMCC A Brief History of SMCC Southern Maine Community College (SMCC) has grown and evolved over the years. Our mission today is to transform lives and communities through education and training, and welcome, prepare and inspire all to learn, succeed and lead. Our role is as vital today as it was in 1946, when the College first opened under the name Maine Vocational Technical Institute (MVTI), a day school in Augusta created to serve returning World War II veterans who needed to learn new skills in a post-war economy. By 1952 MVTI and its 156 students had outgrown their space in Augusta and moved to the site of decommissioned Fort Preble, overlooking beautiful Casco Bay in South Portland. During the 1960s the name was changed to Southern Maine Vocational Technical Institute (SMVTI) and authorization was received to award Associate in Applied Science degrees. In the late 1980s, the Maine Legislature changed the name of the state’s Vocational Technical Institute System to the Maine Technical College System, and SMVTI became Southern Maine Technical College (SMTC). Almost a decade later, in 1998, the College added an Associate in Arts degree in liberal studies to its offerings, a significant step in its evolution to a comprehensive community college. In 2003 that transformation was complete. Gov. John Baldacci introduced legislation establishing the Maine Community College System – a move that enjoyed strong bipartisan support in the 121st Maine Legislature. The College name was changed once more, this time to Southern Maine Community College.
