  • Abraham Lincoln As a Political Scientist
    Abraham Lincoln as Political Scientist Tim R. Miller, Ph.D. Katrina L. Miller-Stevens, Ph.D. Dept. of Political Science Dept. of Urban Studies University of Illinois, Springfield and Public Administration Old Dominion University Norfolk, Virginia Prepared for presentation at the Wepner Symposium on the Lincoln Legacy and Contemporary Political Science University of Illinois, Springfield, October 8-9, 2010. Abraham Lincoln was many things during his lifetime, including being a family man, friend, and lifelong student of law, culture, and history. He was a clerk and frontiersman, was admired as an athlete (particularly wrestling and moving heavy objects) and yes, briefly worked as a rail-splitter. He was an amateur poet, and a widely admired orator. And Lincoln was, of course, a successful politician who served in the Illinois General Assembly (1834-42), U.S. House of Representatives (1847-49), and as President of the United States of America (1861-65). While controversial during his lifetime, the martyred Chief Executive would ultimately be judged one of the foremost leaders in American – and indeed world – history. These observations, among others, are rather obvious about this great human being. In the pages to follow, we ask a different and somewhat novel question (in that we find it nowhere in the vast Lincoln literature). Can Abraham Lincoln be seen as a member of the fraternity of political scientists? Is there a case to be made that in this regard he was one of us? We approach the topic with both enthusiasm and caution. We are enthusiastic that the endeavor enables us to pursue our mutual interests in the life of Lincoln; and it allows us the opportunity to participate in Professor Holden’s Symposium featuring so many leading presidential scholars, and even offers us the potential chance to influence, however modestly, the context in which subsequent presentations are considered.

At 6:00 AM on July 7, with a ceremonial parade of the library’s earliest accessions, the two-month project of moving the books commenced. Leading the trail of librarians was the head librarian, Andrew Keogh, and the head of the serials cataloguing department, Grace Pierpont Fuller. Fuller was the descendant of James Pierpont, one of the principal founders of Yale, and was carrying the Latin Bible given by her ancestor during the fabled 1701 donation of books that signaled the foundation of the Collegiate School.

  • The Early History of American Nutrition Research from Quality to Quantity
    Chapter One The Early History of American Nutrition Research From Quality to Quantity On May 15, 1862, President Abraham Lincoln approved a bill to establish the United States Department of Agriculture. The USDA was born with $60,000 in six rooms in the basement of the Patent Offi ce building.1 Draw- ing from the European import of a scientifi c approach to agriculture, which relied largely on the nascent fi eld of chemistry, the USDA’s directive was to advance scientifi c research. The department was “laying the foundation for becoming a great science-producing agency of government” (Cochrane, 1993, p. 96). It was the expressed goal of the newfound department to: “Test by experiment the use of agricultural implements and the value of seeds, soils, manures, and animals; undertake the chemical investigation of soils, grains, fruits, vegetables, and manures, publishing the results.”2 From cotton to cattle to cucumbers, the USDA had an array of directions in which to take their scientifi c research. In the years after the approval of this bill, federally funded scientists, in USDA-sanctioned labs, set to unearthing the chemical components of food, and the physiological processes of digestion. Chemists used the pro- cess of calorimetry to break food down into calories, fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. Techniques of dehydration, precipitation, and combustion reduced foods to their constituent molecular parts. These experiments, as well as experiments using the calorimeter to quantify human action, ren- dered the relationship between food and eater measurable. The emerging 21 © 2009 State University of New York Press, Albany 22 Measured Meals science of nutrition introduced the notion of the balanced human-food equation based on the zero-waste model of the combustion engine.

  • Ancestry of George W. Bush Compiled by William Addams Reitwiesner
    Ancestry of George W. Bush (b. 1946) Page 1 of 150 Ancestry of George W. Bush compiled by William Addams Reitwiesner The following material on the immediate ancestry of George W. Bush was initially compiled from two sources: The ancestry of his father, President George Bush, as printed in Gary Boyd Roberts, Ancestors of American Presidents, First Authoritative Edition [Santa Clarita, Cal.: Boyer, 1995], pp. 121-130. The ancestry of his mother, Barbara Bush, based on the unpublished work of Michael E. Pollock, [email protected]. The contribution of the undersigned consists mostly in collating and renumbering the material cited above, adding considerable information from the decennial censuses and elsewhere, and HTML-izing the results. The relationships to other persons (see the NOTES section below) are intended to be illustrative rather than exhaustive, and are taken mostly from Mr. Roberts' Notable Kin and Ancestors of American Presidents books, with extensions, where appropriate, from John Young's American Reference Genealogy and from my own, generally unpublished, research.

These issues have not been taken seriously because they are not obvious state interventions, but are instead part of what I define as the “Advisory State.” I conceptualize the advisory state as a repertoire of governing tools, as well as the actual use of these tools. Advisory state tools are political projects instituted not through physical force and not through coercion. Rather, these governing tools include federal research with explicit social aims, an expectation that persons and groups outside the state will voluntarily do the work asked of them by state, and the use of persuasive discourses like quantification and advertising to compel what cannot be legislated.

  • Young Yale History
    [THIS CHAPTER OF Skulls and Keys WAS CUT BEFORE PUBLICATION] Chapter Six THE SENIOR SOCIETIES AND THE REVOLT OF YOUNG YALE (1866-1872) The Alumni who are fortunate enough to belong to “these Yale secret societies” know why it is that they are still active members of the same, no matter how many years have passed away since they ceased to be undergraduates. William Walter Phelps, Class of 1860, August 1870 In the decades after the Civil War, the American college was being redefined. Responding to a variety of forces, the professors took firm charge of the classroom, expanding it with such devices as the elective curriculum and new courses of study. As this happened, the students, who would soon be alumni, remained in charge of college life, if not the college proper. In consequence, there was created “among the professors the belief that the young men who passed through their classrooms became graduates of the curriculum, while among the young men themselves the belief developed that they would become graduates of their fraternities, their clubs, their teams―all the aspects of college that really mattered….The college alumnus who, as a student, had…developed an emotional investment in the preservation of institutions that one day might not be recognized by everyone as best serving an institution of learning. Thus, one consequence of the college student as a college reformer has been the college alumnus as perpetual sophomore”1―or in Yale’s case, perpetual senior. At Yale College, the graduate members of Bones and Keys were now men of prominence and substance, and believed that their university would need a broader base than had the Congregational college.

  • Leonard Amby Maynard
    Leonard Amby Maynard November 8, 1887 — June 22, 1972 Professor Leonard Amby Maynard was born on a farm in the town of Hart- ford, Washington County, New York. The rural environment of his youth stimulated his interest in plants and animals and was the basis of his lifelong work in biology and agriculture. Following eighth grade in the Hartford village two-room school, he completed his secondary education at Troy Conference Academy, Poultney, Vermont, where he received a classical training in language, literature, and mathematics. Professor Maynard then enrolled in Wesleyan University, Middletown, Connecticut, in 1907 and was graduated in 1911, cum laude. The course in chemistry taught by Professor W.P. Bradley furnished the inspiration leading to his future career. In Bradley’s course he learned of the pioneer work of Wilbur Olin Atwater, who established and directed the first agricultural experiment station in the United States at Middletown in 1875. Fascinated by the accounts of Atwater’s varied research activities in applying chemical knowledge and techniques to the problems of agriculture and human and animal nutrition, Maynard determined to specialize in chemistry and proceeded to take all the courses that were available. Professor Maynard enrolled in Cornell University in the fall of 1913 as a graduate major in chemistry, after serving two years as an assistant in chemistry at the agricultural experiment stations at Iowa and at Rhode Island. During graduate study, Maynard received great stimulation from Professor Wilder D. Bancroft, whom he described as a teacher whose “facile mind, familiarity with both classic and current literature of chemistry,” and whose “wealth of ideas for research and enthusiasm made contacts with him, both in lectures and conferences, of outstanding interest and value.” He received the Ph.D.
