Genia Stadler When asked to describe herself and her love for the Smokies, she said, “I was born in Alabama, but Tennessee always felt like home to me. My love for the Smokies started as a small child. My daddy brought me here each summer before he passed away. I was 9 when he died, and by then I had fallen in love with the Smokies. My husband (Gary) and I had the chance to build a cabin and move here in 2002, so we jumped at the chance. Since then, we’ve been exploring the park as often as we can. We’ve probably hiked over 300 miles of the park’s trails (many repeats), and I’m trying to pass my love for this place on to my two children and two grandchildren.

  • Foreword Missouri Has a History of Diversity in Geography, the Economy, Culture and People
    Foreword Missouri has a history of diversity in geography, the economy, culture and people. The state is well known for its ability to adapt to the changes required to accommodate this diversity. Among the changes that are occurring is the influx of immigrants from around the world. The changing of the colors of Missouri is, once again, providing a set of challenges to respond to. The most notable change in the faces and colors of Missouri in recent years is the increase of Latino and Hispanic peoples in both rural and urban areas. These new Missourians are contributing significantly to the local and state economy as well as to the social progress of the state. Because these new immigrants speak a different language and represent different cultures and values, we need to acknowledge and welcome their contributions and make an extra effort to weave and integrate them into the rich societal tapestry that results from such a change. Sylvia Lazos and Stephen Jeanetta together have studied and documented the current status of Latino and Hispanic people in the state. This critical and most timely research effort identifies the important issues that businesses, social services and community agencies need to consider in developing appropriate public policy issues that should be addressed. I urge you to use the knowledge included in this monograph to help create a Missouri that values each person and affords the equality of opportunity and individual rights that each person deserves. This is the right thing to do.

It has been a joyful situation to be admitted to a variety of history, religion and spirituality, folklore, ethnographic writing, and research courses under the umbrella of one Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies program.

  • White-Tailed Deer a Sacred Animal
    Cherokee A Wi Cherokee Importance The Deer Clan is one of the 7 Cherokee Clans making the White-tailed Deer a sacred animal. Cherokees from this clan were the keepers , hunters, and trackers of the deer, as well as keepers of the deer medicine. Deer Clan members were swift runners and therefore, messengers. White-tailed Deer have been a staple food source for the Cherokees probably as long as the Cherokees have existed. In addition to being a major food source, deer were used as a resource to manufacture clothing and utility items, as well as being a major source of early trade and commerce. Deer antlers were also used to knap flint into arrowheads, spearheads, knives, etc. before the introduction of steel and other metals. Some of the heavier bones, such as the femur (upper leg bone), could have also been used as tools and weapons. The Cherokee story of the Spirit of Little Deer goes as follows: Little Deer was the protector of the deer. Cherokee hunters were knowledgeable in the ways of hunting the deer and prayed to the Deer Spirit out of reverence when deer were killed for food. If a hunter killed a deer needlessly and without asking the Deer Spirit’s pardon, Little Deer would track down the hunter and give him rheumatism so that he could hunt no more. Today, White-tailed Deer are still the most sought-after big game animal in the United States. Description White-tailed deer are among the smallest members of the deer family in the United States, with the largest being the moose, then elk.
