  • Labor History Loses a Great Voice: Jim Green
    Labor History Loses a Great Voice: Jim Green By ILHS Vice President Mike Matejka Bringing history to life, particularly transporting it from the lecture hall to the streets, is no small task. Labor History lost a true leader in that effort, Dr. James Green of the University of Massachusetts, who died of leukemia on June.23. Taking labor's dramatic stories, Green was able to translate them into accessible and popular books, including his "Death in the Haymarket" and most recently, "The Devil is Here in THese Hills: West Virginia's Coal Miners and Their Battle for Freedom." This book was the foundation for the Public Television documentary last February, "The Mine Wars." In the 1970s he assisted Barbara Koepple with her award-winning documentary "Harlan County, USA" and PBS for its "The Great Depression" series. Green happily shared his time and talents with the Illinois Labor History Society, including an appearance as guest speaker at the 2010 ILHS Union Hall of Honor. He worked closely with the ILHS, its members and officers, while developing his Haymarket book. Green was a very patient and gentle soul, who moved history beyond academic halls into union halls. His 2000 book, "Taking History to Heart," told his own journey, making labor history accessible and meaningful to a general audience. His roots were in Illinois, growing up in Oak Park and then Carpentersville, where his father was a math teacher and his mother a school clerical worker. His grandparents included a railroad switchman and a clothing factory worker, people with stories he took to heart.

  • Why Teach Labor History? by James Green, Fred Glass American
    Why Teach Labor History? By James Green any retired union members I know worry that their struggles have been Mforgotten. They fear that few now understand the sacrifices of their forebears who fought for the eight- hour day and the 40-hour week— “the folks who brought you the week- end,” as one union bumper sticker reads. Like the character in Milan Kundera’s novel,1 who believes the struggle against power “is the struggle of memory against forgetting,” the elder generation of union members and retirees I have spoken with believe that ignorance of labor history will disem- power today’s workers and students. So, the reason for teach- ing labor history in our social Above, the American Labor Studies studies classrooms is obvious Center is dedicated to disseminating labor to these union veterans.

  • Labor and Worklife Program
    LABOR AND WORKLIFE PROGRAM ANNUAL REPORT JUNE 2017 Part One: Report of Activities Summary of Academic Year: 2016-2017 1. Executive Summary The Labor and Worklife Program is Harvard University’s forum for research and teaching on the world of work and its implications for society. The LWP’s activities are in four program areas: the Harvard Trade Union Program (an executive mid-career program for union leaders founded in 1942), the Pensions and Capital Stewardship Project (which focuses on research and public policy concerned with financial security in retirement and pension fund governance, management, and investment), the Science and Engineering Workforce Project (SEWP) (a program mobilizing a dedicated network of researchers for advancing social science understanding of science and engineering), and the Changing Labor Markets Project (CLMP). Additionally, the Labor and Worklife Program administers and awards fellowships on labor and the world of work for the Jacob Wertheim Research Fellowship for the Betterment of Industrial Relationships and the Jerry Wurf Memorial Fund. In all four areas of our work, the LWP has registered significant achievements this year. The Harvard Trade Union Program (HTUP) held its 106th session in spring 2017 with 45 participants, including 16 students from 6 different countries. It continues to be the premier labor education program in the country, while providing a unique opportunity for faculty and students to meet with emerging labor leaders from the US and other advanced industrial countries. The Science and Engineering Workforce Project (SEWP) continued its annual seminar series on issues of concern to the science and engineering workforce. This year’s fall and spring seminars were co-sponsored by the Science Based Business Seminar at the Harvard Graduate School of Business (formerly known as the Science Based Business Initiative at HBS).

    \\server05\productn\W\WBN\42-4\WBN405.txt unknown Seq: 1 27-AUG-04 9:38 “The ideal place . for the establishment of a great Law School” — The Early Years of Washburn University School of Law James M. Concannon* When Washburn College hired Norman Plass in 1902 to be its new President, it was a private school affiliated with the Congrega- tional Church. It had only three departments, a College of Liberal Arts, a School of Music, and a preparatory school called the Wash- burn Academy. Although enrollment was not limited to church mem- bers, enrollment the previous year totaled only 328 students. President Plass was dynamic and entrepreneurial and quickly set about expanding the size and prestige of the College.1 A principle guiding Plass’ plan for growth was that the College should meet the needs of its community. During his inaugural address on October 7, 1902, Plass announced that the Board of Trustees in a special session that afternoon had authorized the College’s Executive Committee to investigate the feasibility of adding a Dental College2 and a Law School and, if appropriate, to open them both in 1903. Plass believed there were educational advantages in Topeka that were not available in other cities and that resources in the local legal community could be used to reduce the costs for faculty and a law library that a small col- lege like Washburn otherwise might have been unable to bear: Topeka is the ideal place for such a school. We have here the United States District Court and Circuit Courts, and the Bank- ruptcy Referee; the Supreme Court of the State, with its seven judges; the District Court and the Probate Court, in constant ses- sion; and the City and Police Courts.
