  • Fort Benjamin Harrison: from Military Base to Indiana State
    FORT BENJAMIN HARRISON: FROM MILITARY BASE TO INDIANA STATE PARK Melanie Barbara Hankins Submitted to the faculty of the University Graduate School in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in the Department of History, Indiana University April 2020 Accepted by the Graduate Faculty of Indiana University, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. Master’s Thesis Committee ____________________________________ Philip V. Scarpino, Ph.D., Chair ____________________________________ Rebecca K. Shrum, Ph.D. ____________________________________ Anita Morgan, Ph.D. ii Acknowledgements During my second semester at IUPUI, I decided to escape the city for the day and explore the state park, Fort Benjamin Harrison State Park. I knew very little about the park’s history and that it was vaguely connected to the American military. I would visit Fort Harrison State Park many times the following summer, taking hikes with my dog Louie while contemplating the potential public history projects at Fort Harrison State Park. Despite a false start with a previous thesis topic, my hikes at Fort Harrison State Park inspired me to take a closer look at the park’s history, which eventually became this project. Finishing this thesis would have been nearly impossible without the encouragement and dedication of many people. First, I need to thank my committee: Dr. Philip Scarpino, Dr. Rebecca Shrum, and Dr. Anita Morgan for their criticism, support, and dedication throughout my writing process. I would especially like to thank my chair, Dr. Scarpino for his guidance through the transition of changing my thesis topic so late in the game.
