  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

Essay Codification and the California Mentality by LEwIS GROSSMAN* Introduction: The Pomeroy Paradox On August 8, 1878, John Norton Pomeroy, the principal instruc- tor at the newly established Hastings College of Law in San Francisco, delivered the school's inaugural address. It was the culminating mo- ment of an exhilarating decade for California's legal profession. Six years earlier, in 1872, California had moved to the forefront of American legal reform by becoming one of the first states in the nation to codify its complete body of laws. The legislature had en- acted the California Code, which included new Civil, Criminal, and Political Codes, as well as a revised Code of Civil Procedure. Com- mittees of prominent attorneys had drafted the Code, basing it largely on the work of the illustrious New York jurist, David Dudley Field.' The centerpiece of the California Code was the Civil Code, which consolidated all of the state's statutory and common-law rules gov- erning private relations (corporations, property, torts, contracts, and domestic matters) into one meticulously arranged volume.2 Only * Associate, Covington & Burling, Washington, D.C.

  • The University at a Glance About the University Stanford University
    About the University Stanford University n October 1, 1891, the 465 new students who were on Ohand for opening day ceremonies at Leland Stanford Junior University greeted Leland and Jane Stanford enthusi- astically, with a chant they had made up and rehearsed only that morning. Wah-hoo! Wah-hoo! L-S-J-U! Stanford! Its wild and spirited tone symbolized the excitement of this bold adventure. As a pioneer faculty member recalled, “Hope was in every heart, and the presiding spirit of freedom prompted us to dare greatly.” For the Stanford’s on that day, the university was the real- ization of a dream and a fitting tribute to the memory of their only son, who had died of typhoid fever weeks before his sixteenth birthday. Far from the nation’s center of culture and unencumbered by tradition or ivy, the new university Millions of volumes are housed in many libraries throughout the campus. drew students from all over the country: many from California; some who followed professors hired from other colleges and universities; and some simply seeking adventure in the West. Though there were many difficulties during the first months – housing was inadequate, microscopes and books were late in arriving from the East – the first year fore- told greatness. As Jane Stanford wrote in the summer of Stanford University 1892, “Even our fondest hopes have been realized.” The University at a Glance About the University Stanford University Ideas of “Practical Education” Stanford People Governor and Mrs. Stanford had come from families of By any measure, Stanford’s faculty – which numbers modest means and had built their way up through a life of approximately 1,700 – is one of the most distinguished in hard work.

    California’s Stanford University: A World-Class Legacy Author’s Note: This article “California’s Stanford University: A World-Class Legacy” is also a chapter in my travel guidebook/ebook Northern California Travel: The Best Options. That book is available in English as a book/ebook and also as an ebookin Chinese. Parallel coverage on Northern California occurs in my latest travel guidebook/ebook Northern California History Travel Adventures: 35 Suggested Trips. All my travel guidebooks/ebooks on California can be seen on myAmazon Author Page. By Lee Foster On October 1, 1891, Senator Leland Stanford and his wife, Jane, officially opened Leland Stanford Junior University. The school became one of the premier institutions of higher education and loveliest campuses in the West. For today’s traveler, headed for the San Francisco region in Northern California, Stanford University is a cultural enrichment to consider including in a trip. The University owes its existence to a tragic death while the Stanford family was on a European Trip in Florence, Italy. After typhoid fever took their only child, a 15- year-old son, the Stanfords decided to turn their 8,200-acre stock farm into the Leland Stanford Junior University. They expressed their desire with the phrase that “the children of California may be our children.” Years later the cerebral establishment is still called by some “The Farm.” Leland Stanford had used the grounds to raise prize trotter racehorses, orchard crops, and wine grapes. The early faculty built homes in Palo Alto, one neighborhood of which became “Professorville.” In a full day of exploration you can visit the campus, adjacent Palo Alto, and the nearby Palo Alto Baylands marshes of San Francisco Bay, a delight to the naturalist.

See a map illustrating where all of our Cardinal Quarter participants served. The students listed below are supported by the Haas Center for Public Service’s Undergraduate Fellowships Program. Advancing Gender Equity Fellow The Advancing Gender Equity Fellowship is a joint program with the Women's Community Center and enables students to learn about gender, diversity, and social justice through a summer practicum with a nonprofit organization or government agency addressing social, political, or economic issues affecting women. Jessica Reynoso, '20 (Public Policy); ACT for Women and Girls, Visalia, CA. Jessica worked closely with the Policy Director on several projects such as the Voter Engagement Campaign, which comprised of gathering, collating, and logging signatures for a petition, and phone banking registered voters in the Central Valley. Jessica managed teams who phone-banked, and identified which constituents needed to be followed up with for information regarding contacting their legislators and providing resources. Callan Showers, '19 (American Studies); Gender Justice, St. Paul, MN. As a legal intern at Gender Justice, a nonprofit legal and advocacy organization in St. Paul, Callan worked on everything from deposition summaries and discovery reviews to memos regarding transgender rights in schools and abortion access for women with public health insurance in Minnesota.
