  • History and Constitution (PDF)
    HISTORY AND THE CONSTITUTION Chapter 7 HISTORY AND THE CONSTITUTION 309 EARLY HISTORY OF IOWA By Dorothy Schwieder, Professor of History, Iowa State University Marquette and Joliet Find Iowa Lush and Green In the summer of 1673, French explorers Louis Joliet and Father Jacques Marquette traveled down the Mississippi River past the land that was to become the state of Iowa. The two explorers, along with their five crewmen, stepped ashore near where the Iowa River flowed into the Missis- sippi. It is believed that the 1673 voyage marked the first time that white people visited the region of Iowa. After surveying the surrounding area, the Frenchmen recorded in their journals that Iowa appeared lush, green, and fertile. For the next 300 years, thousands of white settlers would agree with these early visitors: Iowa was indeed lush and green; moreover, its soil was highly produc- tive. In fact, much of the history of the Hawkeye State is inseparably intertwined with its agricul- tural productivity. Iowa stands today as one of the leading agricultural states in the nation, a fact foreshadowed by the observation of the early French explorers. The Indians Before 1673, however, the region had long been home to many Native Americans. Approxi- mately 17 different Indian tribes had resided here at various times including the Ioway, Sauk, Mesquaki, Sioux, Potawatomi, Oto, and Missouri. The Potawatomi, Oto, and Missouri Indians had sold their land to the federal government by 1830 while the Sauk and Mesquaki remained in the Iowa region until 1845. The Santee Band of the Sioux was the last to negotiate a treaty with the federal government in 1851.

  • 2016-2017 Annual Report
    2016-2017 ANNUAL REPORT 2 The Harkin Institute for Public Policy & Citizen Engagement exists to inform citizens, inspire creative cooperation, and catalyze change on issues of social justice, fairness, and opportunity. MISSION STATEMENT 3 FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR In The Harkin Institute’s inaugural annual report, it perhaps makes sense for me to provide a look back: to recap the previous year, noting our many exciting accomplishments. And while the next 26 pages of this publication will do as much, I’d like to take this moment of your time to look ahead. Thanks in large part to your generosity and enthusiasm, The Harkin Institute has accomplished a great deal since our 2013 founding. In our upcoming year, however, we hope to grow in leaps and bounds, exceeding the high expectations we have set in our formative years. One way we will grow is in our policy research: in October, the institute’s new associate director of wellness and nutrition policy, Lyndi Buckingham-Schutt, will begin her work full time, leading research that aligns with the agenda defined by our Wellness and Nutrition Core Advisory Committee. You are able to learn about this research in fresh and exciting ways, on our new website, www.harkininstitute.org. There, you’ll find engaging content that tells the story of our four focus areas – labor and employment, people with disabilities, retirement security, and wellness and nutrition – as well as our engaging events, ranging from 10-student luncheons at Drake University to the Harkin International Disability Employment Summit, which convenes hundreds of global leaders to find solutions to the world’s disability employment crisis.
