Depauw Today
Scholarship recipient Nadine Farid ’95 lauds the generosity and continuing impact of scholarship donor Robert V. Copeland ’37 by Nadine Farid ’95 Climenko/Thayer Lecturer on Law Harvard University Law School DePauw graduates of generations past are renowned for their generos- ity. However, not all DePauw alumni have had the opportunity to not only beneﬁ t from an alum’s thoughtful gift to the school but also make the close acquaintance of that alumnus or alumna. Those of us who were fortunate enough to receive the Copeland Scholarship to DePauw, established by Robert V. “Bob” Copeland ’37, had that rare opportunity. Mr. Copeland, who passed away on Aug. 12, 2004, came to DePauw in the footsteps of his two older brothers. He was, by all accounts, the quintessential DePauw student – intelligent, friendly, heavily involved in student life and dedicated to DePauw sports, playing basketball and football, and lettering twice. His fondness for the school and his experi- ence there is evident in his early career as an educator as well as in his exemplary generosity to the school. An Indiana boy who attended the former Valley Mills High (now part of Decatur Central High School) near where he was raised in India- napolis, Mr. Copeland moved to my hometown, Lebanon, Ind., prior to his retirement from Eli Lilly and Company in the 1970s. He and his wife, Josephine, lost their son Ronald in childhood. The Copeland Scholar- ship, now in the names of Robert and Josephine S. Copeland in memory of their son, was established to provide recipients with the opportunity Josephine and Robert V.

Speakers of the House: Elections, 1913-2021
Speakers of the House: Elections, 1913-2021 Updated January 25, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL30857 Speakers of the House: Elections, 1913-2021 Summary Each new House elects a Speaker by roll call vote when it first convenes. Customarily, the conference of each major party nominates a candidate whose name is placed in nomination. A Member normally votes for the candidate of his or her own party conference but may vote for any individual, whether nominated or not. To be elected, a candidate must receive an absolute majority of all the votes cast for individuals. This number may be less than a majority (now 218) of the full membership of the House because of vacancies, absentees, or Members answering “present.” This report provides data on elections of the Speaker in each Congress since 1913, when the House first reached its present size of 435 Members. During that period (63rd through 117th Congresses), a Speaker was elected six times with the votes of less than a majority of the full membership. If a Speaker dies or resigns during a Congress, the House immediately elects a new one. Five such elections occurred since 1913. In the earlier two cases, the House elected the new Speaker by resolution; in the more recent three, the body used the same procedure as at the outset of a Congress. If no candidate receives the requisite majority, the roll call is repeated until a Speaker is elected. Since 1913, this procedure has been necessary only in 1923, when nine ballots were required before a Speaker was elected.

Driven by the rivalry between modern warfare and militia tradition, the role as well as the ideology of the militia institution fitfully progressed beyond its seventeenth century origins. Ohio’s militia, the third largest in the country at the time, strove to modernize while preserving its relevance. Like many states in the early republic, Ohio’s militia started out as a sporadic group of reluctant citizens with little military competency. The War of the Rebellion exposed the serious flaws in the militia system, but also demonstrated why armed citizen-soldiers were necessary to the defense of the state. After the war ended, the militia struggled, but developed into a capable military organization through state-imposed reform.

House Officer, Party Leader, and Representative Name Redacted Specialist on Congress and the Legislative Process
The Speaker of the House: House Officer, Party Leader, and Representative name redacted Specialist on Congress and the Legislative Process November 12, 2015 Congressional Research Service 7-.... www.crs.gov 97-780 The Speaker of the House: House Officer, Party Leader, and Representative Summary The Speaker of the House of Representatives is widely viewed as symbolizing the power and authority of the House. The Speaker’s most prominent role is that of presiding officer of the House. In this capacity, the Speaker is empowered by House rules to administer proceedings on the House floor, including recognition of Members to speak on the floor or make motions and appointment of Members to conference committees. The Speaker also oversees much of the non- legislative business of the House, such as general control over the Hall of the House and the House side of the Capitol and service as chair of the House Office Building Commission. The Speaker’s role as “elect of the elect” in the House also places him or her in a highly visible position with the public. The Speaker also serves as not only titular leader of the House but also leader of the majority party conference. The Speaker is often responsible for airing and defending the majority party’s legislative agenda in the House. The Speaker’s third distinct role is that of an elected Member of the House. Although elected as an officer of the House, the Speaker continues to be a Member as well. As such the Speaker enjoys the same rights, responsibilities, and privileges of all Representatives.

Mr. Justice Stanton by James W
At Sidebar Mr. Justice Stanton by James W. Satola I love U.S. Supreme Court history. Sometimes, the more arcane the better. So, for my At Sidebar con- tribution, I want to share a little bit of what I love.1 Perhaps calling to mind the well-known story behind Marbury v. Madison, here is a lesser-known story of a presidential commission not delivered on time (though in this case, it was not anyone’s fault). The story of Mr. Justice Edwin M. Stanton.2 James W.

January 9, 2009 Local Government Reform
JANUARY 9, 2009 LOCAL GOVERNMENT REFORM COMMISSION MEMBERS DEBATE MISSION, RESEARCH compiled from Gongwer Some underlying tensions between different governmental entities already were evident during the inaugural meeting of the Commission on Local Government Reform & Collaboration on Monday. The panel is charged with the sensitive and challenging task of recommending ways to streamline Ohio's multi-layered local government system. Underscoring the varied opinions among panelists themselves, they even voiced differences over whether the first order of business should be to focus on devising a mission statement or to launch into research. A resolution by Ohio State University's John Glenn School of Public Affairs to provide research for the Commission became the subject of debate when Ohio Township Association Executive Director Mike Cochran said he was blindsided by the offer. "That's going to cause the greatest amount of disagreement between us - if people are getting communications and having in-depth discussions while leaving some people out," he said. Mr. Cochran said he was concerned that OSU's offer would give academics too much say over the direction of the commission and he endorsed a suggestion from Co-Chairman Troy for the panel to create a mission statement before pursuing research. "A lot of people sitting around this table, myself included, have preconceived ideas," he said. "I think we need to have a heart- to-heart among ourselves." Former House member Larry Wolpert, who co-authored implementing legislation, said the University previously had expressed interest in assisting the panel in its work and was reaching out to other state institutions to get involved in the effort.

The FBI Investigated Missing Money from Chabot's Campaign After His Campaign Could Not Account for More Than $120,000. On
The FBI investigated missing money from Chabot’s campaign after his campaign could not account for more than $120,000. On top of that, Chabot has used his political organization to enrich his family. But when it comes to helping your family pay the bills, Chabot has voted 15 times to increase health care costs and take away protections for people with pre-existing conditions in Ohio, like asthma, cancer and diabetes. The Chabot Campaign Released A Justice Department Letter Stating That An FBI Fraud Investigation Into Former Chabot Campaign Manager Jamie Schwartz After $123,000 Went Missing From Chabot’s Campaign. “The campaign of U.S. Rep. Steve Chabot, R-Westwood, released correspondence from the Justice Department that confirmed for the first time that Chabot’s former chief political aide, Jamie Schwartz, is under investigation for fraud. […] The July 21 Justice Department letter to the Chabot campaign’s attorneys in Washington, D.C., Jones Day, discusses a 2011 Jeep Wrangler seized by the FBI in its investigation of Schwartz. ‘An investigation conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation has determined that Steve Chabot for Congress is a victim of the violation of law which resulted in the seizure and forfeiture of the above-referenced property,’ the letter, signed by Stephen Jobe, chief of the department’s legal forfeiture unit, states. […] About $123,000 went missing from the campaign. About a year ago, Schwartz closed his consulting business and vanished from the local political world. He could not be reached for comment. Schwartz has not been charged with wrongdoing. The Justice Department letter said the amount of forfeited funds “available for remission” is $13,255.20.

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.
