University of Nevada, Las Vegas May 1995 ABSTRACT On May 26, 1789 in his first lecture as a history professor, Friedrich von Schiller stated "The world's history is the world's judgment." An institution’s history may well be the institution's judgment. Careful historical documentation of an institution provides data to determine the path of the institution, and to predict accurate trends. This information is vital to positively and accurately shape the future and growth of an institution. This study collected data pertaining to the four public two- year institutions in Nevada from 1977 to 1993. Five specific areas of concern were addressed. They were: governance, demographics, curriculum, finance, and facility and faculty growth. Data were collected from primary and secondary sources, and content analysis was applied to the data to analyze trends within the institutions.

  • Governor Steve Sisolak: State of the State Address (2019)
    1 Governor Steve Sisolak: State of the State Address January 16th, 2019 As prepared for delivery __ Mr. Speaker, Majority leader, legislative leadership, Madam President, distinguished members of the Legislature, Honorable Justices of the Supreme Court, constitutional officers, Honored Guests ... Thank you all for joining me here tonight. To my family - particularly our incredible new First Lady: Thank you for standing with me on this journey... and for guiding me through this next chapter. I also want to take moment to recognize a great Nevadan who passed away recently, but left behind a legacy of fighting for the Silver State, former Governor and U.S. Senator Paul Laxalt. The start of the year, the start of a new legislative session, is a moment for reflection — a time to think about the progress we’ve made. Tonight I speak to the legislators who will make up the 80th Session of the Nevada Legislature. And for the first time in Nevada state history — and in the history of the United States — it’s a Legislature that is majority women. Tonight, we are joined by the newly-elected and appointed women who took the leap this past year — and together, made history. Would you all please stand? Let’s give them a round of applause. This is a milestone that’s been generations in the making -- thanks to women like Dina Titus, who not only served in this legislature, but has gone on to represent us in the halls of Congress. And tonight we’re joined by two of the pioneers who also helped make it possible: Barbara Buckley, the first woman to serve as Speaker of the Assembly and Sue Wagner the first woman to serve as Lieutenant Governor in Nevada .

  • MSNC476 NORA Nevada Outdoor
    CHARLES S. WATSON, JR. Co-Founder and Director of the Nevada Outdoor Recreation Association Charles S. Watson, Jr. was born August 14, 1934, in Cleveland, Ohio to Charles S. Watson, Sr. and Ruth Catherine McAteer Watson. He was reared in Southern California and attended Pasadena City College from 1952-1954. Watson was subsequently drafted into the U.S. Army, serving two years. Upon discharge, he continued his studies at the University of Nevada’s Mackay School of Mines where he earned a B. S. in Geology in 1960. Watson’s interest with the public domain began as a high school student with field trips into the wilderness of the Mojave Desert and eventually led to his organizing a small group of other enthusiasts to form the Nevada Public Domain Survey whose goal was to completely examine the 48 million acres of Bureau of Land Management land in Nevada to determine parcels that should be preserved as wilderness or utilized for recreation. He was instrumental in developing the “Big Book” of Nevada natural resources and traveled widely to lobby members of Congress and other influential people to view the public lands in a different light. In 1960, Watson was employed by BLM as a cartographic technician in Reno, and then as a cartographer with the U.S. Navy in Washington, D.C., and finally with the Air Force in St. Louis. He left federal service in 1972 to continue his conservation activities full-time. In 1965, the group composing the Public Domain Survey was reorganized into the Nevada Outdoor Recreation Association (NORA).

Although some women immediately sought election to state offices, including legislative, their numbers were not overwhelming. In the 65 years between 1916 to 1981, only 42 women were elected to the State Legislature. In the following 13 years, however, the voters' interest in women candidates rose dramatically: beginning with the 1982 election, 39 women have been elected to Legislative office. For the 1995 Session, over one-third of the Legislature is female: 17 women were chosen to represent their neighbors in the Assembly; 5, in the Senate. This background paper provides basic information about the 87 women who have served in the Nevada Legislature over the past 76 years. Following a review of the legislative history of woman suffrage in Nevada, the paper concentrates on the state's female legislators. Most of the data is provided in the following appendices: A. "Quick Facts," which provides certain statistics about the female membership of the Legislature.
