Navy Photo DEDICATION; TO THE MEN OF THE NROTC; EDUCATED SOCIALLY, INTELLECTUALLY, MILITARILY, THAT THEY MIGHT TAKE THEIR PLACE WELL IN THE WORLD, AS INTELLIGENT CITIZENS PROTECTING THE RIGHTS AND LIBERTIES OF lHf UNITED STATES. .. THE PRESIDENT THE VERY REVEREND E. J. O'DONNEll, S. J. Father Bartholomew J. Quinn, S.J., besides being a member of the University Council and having the full time job of assistant Professor of Philosophy, has untiringly devoted his time and energy to the men of the Unit as their chaplain and moderator. Having the distinction of being the only member of the original Marquette NROTC, he has for seven teen years spread goodwill as liaison officer be tween the Navy and the University. The Navy has recognized his loyal service by conferring upon him the Certificate of Distinguished Service. THE COMMANDING OFFICER CAPT. HERBERT C. FERGUSON FAREWELL FROM THE C.O. This has been a very gratifying tour of duty for me. During these three years at Marquette I have enjoyed participating in the· trans formation of an elite but indecisive group of healthy young men into mature, confident and able Naval Officers. As you near the end of your training and your commissioning date is rapidly approaching, your mind begins to clear from the maze of facts, formulas and information, and one concept becomes fixed in your mind. Above all the aspects of your training, you reflect upon one thing; when you raise your right hand and repeat the oath, "I Do Solemnly Swear That I Will Support and Defend .•. -

Wisconsin Topic Ideas for National History Day Research
Wisconsin Topic Ideas for National History Day Research General Topic Ideas for Students Interested in Exploring the History of Our State National History Day in Wisconsin Updated: Summer 2010 1 A Warning for All Researchers! What follows is a very GENERAL list of topic ideas for you to consider. This list is by no means complete or exhaustive of Wisconsin history. There are many, many more fantastic topics to consider! These topics are NOT THEME SPECIFIC. You will need to take a closer look at each potential topic and consider how it fits with the annual theme for NHD. This is a general list. All the topics listed in this book WILL NOT fit the annual theme. Selecting a topic from this list does not guarantee a WINNING PROJECT. Selecting a topic is just the first step. You will need to follow through with good research, a strong argument, and a clear presentation. Selecting a topic from this list isn’t the final step. Many of these topics need to be further NARROWED in order for them to be a suitable National History Day project. Why Choose a Wisconsin Topic? The National History Day program doesn’t have any requirements or give you any advantage in choosing a Wisconsin topic. Wisconsin history, however, is full of great ideas for your History Day project. It is easy to overlook the history right around us, but your National History Day project can help you to find these amazing local stories that helped shape your history! Armed with local resources and strong research, you can become an authority on your topic and your project could be more competitive than a topic that many other students across the state or nation could choose. -

AM IDEOLOGICAL ANALYSIS of the SENATE WARTIME ADDRESSES of ROBERT MARION LA FOLLETTE Harry R. Gianneschi a Dissertation Submitte
AM IDEOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF THE SENATE WARTIME ADDRESSES OF ROBERT MARION LA FOLLETTE Harry R. Gianneschi A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December . 197.5 618206 Vu.w ii Wo • ABSTRACT Robert Marion La Follette, leading American progres sive, Governor of Wisconsin for three terms, and U. S. Senator from 1905 to 1925, was selected by the 1957 Senate as one of five of its greatest members throughout this country’s history. In light of Ij.s subsequent praiseworthy reputation and of the popular support he maintained during most of his career, the reason for his publicly denounced "anti-war" stance in 1917 has remained a mystery to many critics. Viewing the stance as a break-away from his previous beliefs, historians have tagged him as pacifistic, ignorant, or demagogic in his approach to the war. This study was designed to investigate elements in La Follette's life and speaking which could clarify the motivation for his Senate speeches from April 4 to October 6 in 1917. Research on this topic was devoted to an in-depth investigation of La Follette's entire speaking career. Texts of the speeches he gave during his life, editorial writings presented in La Follette's Magazine, and the personal papers of La Follette, members of his family, and close friends, all located in the Wisconsin State Histori cal Society Archives, were studied. Reactions were discovered in accounts by his contemporaries and the newspapers of the day. -

The Wisconsin Idea: the Vision That Made Wisconsin Famous
1 “Trying to plan for the future without a sense of the past is like trying to plant cut flowers” --Daniel Boorstin, historian and Librarian of Congress The Wisconsin Idea: The Vision that Made Wisconsin Famous Introduction To the practitioners who comprise UW-Madison’s Community Partnerships and Outreach (CPO) Staff Network, the Wisconsin Idea is at the heart of their day-to-day work with communities in Wisconsin and beyond. But the original meaning of the Wisconsin Idea has faded over time, replaced by a generic public service mandate. (1) “The Boundaries of the University are the Boundaries of the State” The “Year of the Wisconsin Idea” offers us an opportunity to reflect on how the Wisconsin Idea guides our practice. We chose to explore the history of the emergence of the Wisconsin Idea in an attempt to renew and clarify our vision for why and how we engage with the public to address pressing issues. It turns out that the history of the University’s engagement with the State offers much more relevant guidance than we would have imagined. The values that drove the founders of the WI Idea—truth, self- governance, egalitarianism, integrity, trust and social capital—are the same values that represent effective, democratic partnerships today. It’s evident in our practice, and now it’s evident in our history as well, thanks to the work of Gwen Drury, Ph.D. student in Educational Policy and Leadership Analysis at UW-Madison. The rich history she details here brings us closer to our best practices—equitable, reciprocal engagement in which knowledge is co-created by the University and communities working together on issues that matter to all of us. -

Their musical gumbo is as unique as their name, drawing roots from all styles of American music. The band's influences are: Jump/Swing, Tex-Mex, Country, Pop and Blues. The "Pigs" as their fans know them are considered "The most versatile band in the land"and play in excess of 200 shows a year coast to coast and overseas. They have released seven full length CD's to date, which are available worldwide. Their newest CD "Pigs At the Zoo" is the soundtrack from the PBS series "Backstage Pass". In the course of their recording history "The Pigs" have played host to a variety of noted guest musicians including Grammy award winning fiddle player Michael Doucet, former James Gang leader and current Eagle, Joe Walsh, Dave Alvin of The Blasters and X fame, Mojo Nixon, Singer/ Songwriting legend Chris Gaffney, Guitar wizard Evan Johns and countless other world class musicians always ready to join in on a "Pig's" recording session. This band has also been featured on several movie and TV soundtracks including MTV and the offbeat hit Red Rock West. However, the main attraction is of course, the live show. A live performance from the "Pigs" can be both rip-roaring and heartfelt at the same time. -
