  • The Office of the First Lady
    SMOOTHING THE PEACEFUL TRANSFER OF DEMOCRATIC POWER The Office of the First Lady Report 2017 — 30 MaryAnne Borrelli, Connecticut College Kathryn Dunn Tenpas, Brookings Institution Lauren A. Wright, NV5 Global, Inc. funded by a grant from the Organizing Partners The White House Transition Project The White House Transition Project (WHTP) was established in 1997 to provide information to incoming White House staff members so that they can hit the ground running. The project aims to streamline the transition process and enhance the staff’s understanding of key White House operations. The WHTP reports are written by presidential scholars from across the country who draft essays about past transitions and the inner workings of key White House offices. The reports have been produced for presidential transitions in 2001, 2009 and now 2017. The WHTP maintains an important international dimension by consulting with foreign governments and organizations interested in improving governmental transitions. http://whitehousetransitionproject.org/ Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy The mission of Rice University’s Baker Institute is to help bridge the gap between the theory and practice of public policy by drawing together experts from academia, government, media, business and nongovernmental organizations. By involving policymakers, scholars and students, the institute seeks to improve the debate on selected public policy issues in a nonpartisan manner and to make a difference in the formulation, implementation and evaluation of public policy, both domestic and international. The Baker Institute is ranked No. 4 among university-affiliated think tanks in the world. The efforts of Baker Institute fellows and affiliated Rice faculty focus on several ongoing research projects, details of which can be found on the institute’s website.

  • Public Spaces of the White House
    Classroom Resource Packet Public Spaces of the White House INTRODUCTION Thousands of people visit the White House every year. During public tours, visitors walk through rooms that have been used by presidents and their families for over two centuries. Years ago, curious guests could knock on the front door of the White House and ask to see inside. Today, visitors wait weeks or even months to gain access for a tour of the President’s House. Discover the history and different uses of the public spaces that are part of the public tour of the White House. CONTEXTUAL ESSAY In recent years, visitors pass through the East Wing to enter the main part of the White House on the Ground Floor. Until 1902, the Ground Floor was primarily a basement area that housed kitchens, a furnace room, and storage (Image 1). Today, the finished space contains several public rooms that hold important artifacts of American history (Image 2). One of the first rooms that visitors see is the Library. This was first created as a private library for President Franklin Roosevelt in 1935 (Image 3). The China Room, once a cloakroom, now displays examples of china and glassware from nearly every presidential administration (Image 4). The full-length portrait of First Lady Grace Coolidge inspired the red decorations of the room. Portraits of other first ladies hang in the Vermeil Room, which contains the White House collection of gilded silver, or vermeil, giving the room its name (Image 5). Image 3 From the Ground Floor, visitors walk upstairs to the State Floor.

She treats them with respect and makes them feel honored. She practices hospitality. With America’s fast- paced lifestyle, the art of hospitality is often forgott en and people are lonelier because this is true. It is good that our First Family continues to be an example of the welcoming grace of hospitality. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by this some have entertained angels without knowing it. Hebrews 13:2 Lesson Activities Thinking Biblically — Read Proverbs 31:10-31.

  • Inside the White House
    Read the text. 1 Inside the White House The White House, 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington DC, is the most famous address in America. It is where the United States President works, but it is also his private home where he lives with his family. He has children’s birthday parties, holiday dinners, and weddings in this world-famous building. The building First built in 1800, the White House is where the President of the United States governs a country of 50 states and 304 million people. He lives with his family on the second and third floors. There are 16 bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, and a dining room. Special guests stay in the Queen’s Bedroom or the Lincoln Bedroom. In the West Wing are the staff offices. The President’s own office, the Oval Office, is also there. It has three large windows behind the President’s desk, and there is a fireplace at the other end. Headway Elementary Fourth Edition • Student’s Book • Unit 4 pp.34–35 © Oxford University Press PHOTOCOPIABLE 2 Each new president chooses new curtains, new furniture, and a special new carpet. There are pictures of old presidents on the wall, and there is the famous desk, a gift from the British Queen Victoria in 1880. The White House day by day The White House is open to visitors. It is free. About 6,000 people a day visit. The President meets special guests in the East Room, and he talks to journalists in the Press Room.
