  • The History of Valentine Camp by Mary Farrell
    History of Valentine Camp Mary M. Farrell Trans-Sierran Archaeological Research P.O. Box 840 Lone Pine, CA 93545 November 7, 2015 Prepared for Valentine Eastern Sierra Reserve University of California, Santa Barbara, Natural Reserve System Sierra Nevada Aquatic Research Laboratory 1016 Mt. Morrison Road Mammoth Lakes, CA 93546 Abstract Located in Mammoth Lakes, California, Valentine Camp and the nearby Sierra Nevada Aquatic Research Laboratory form the Valentine Eastern Sierra Reserve, a field research station in the University of California's Natural Reserve System. The University’s tenure at Valentine Camp began over 40 years ago, but the area’s history goes back thousands of years. Before the arrival of Euroamericans in the nineteenth century, the region was home to Paiutes and other Native American tribes. Land just east of Valentine Camp was surveyed under contract with the United States government in 1856, and mineral deposits in the mountains just west of Valentine Camp brought hundreds of miners to the vicinity in the last decades of the nineteenth century. Even as mining in the region waned, grazing increased. The land that became Valentine Camp was patented in 1897 by Thomas Williams, a rancher and capitalist who lived in Owens Valley. It was Williams’s son, also Thomas, who sold the 160 acres to Valentine Camp’s founders. Those founders were very wealthy, very influential men in southern California who could have, and did, vacation wherever they wanted. Anyone familiar with the natural beauty of Mammoth Lakes would not be surprised that they chose to spend time at Valentine Camp. Valentine Camp was donated to the University of California Natural Land and Water Reserve System (now the Natural Reserve System) in 1972 to ensure the land’s continued protection.

Bennett Spring 2017 iii Copyright © 2017 by Beauregard B. Bennett All Rights Reserved iv DEDICATION For all the women in my life. The ones who raised me, nurtured me, supported me, loved me and endured me. Thanks for believing in me, even when I don’t believe in myself. And a special dedication for the young lady who I haven’t met yet, this work is for you all! v ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS “Guttural German”: Herbert Marcuse, the Media, and Student Radicalism in San Diego During the 1960s by Beauregard B. Bennett Master of Arts in History San Diego State University, 2017 Many university campuses in the United States experienced increased levels of unrest during the 1960s. San Diego universities also contributed to facets of student rebellion nationally and globally. Arguably, no one figure became such a polarizing and inspiring icon of the 1960s as UCSD’s Professor Herbert Marcuse. Guttural German seeks to uncover the roots of Marcuse’s controversial dismissal from UCSD while exploring the factors motivating his most vocal critics. Guttural German utilizes secondary source material that contextualizes the detractors of Marcuse and traces their history of opposition towards contrarian thought in the region. Additionally, Guttural German relies heavily primary sources from The San Diego Union, as well as archival material originating from SDSU Library Special Collections, letters and transcripts from (Dean of San Diego Journalism) Harold Keen’s collected papers; and documents from the Gwartney American Legion and Anti-Communism Collection at SDSU.

  • South Dakotans in the United States Senate: a Composite Portrait
    Copyright © 1981 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. South Dakotans in the United States Senate: A Composite Portrait LARRY PRESSLER Since statehood in 1889, twenty-three South Dakotans have served in the United States Senate. These senators have been diverse in their viewpoints and have offered different and often significant contributions to the American political experience. A composite review of these various individuals suggests some of the political preferences and propensities of South Dakota as a state and, perhaps, enhances our understanding of our own political choices. The following biographical details and sketches are based largely on material in standard biographical reference sources.' These sources are supplemented by recollections of the 1. The beginning points for these biographical notes were sketches published in various editions of the CongressioTial Directory, the Biographical Directory of the American Congress, and the Dictionary of American Biography. Most valuable general sources were Herbert S. Schell's History of South Dakota. 2d ed. (Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press, 1968), and Alan L. Clem's Prairie State Politics: Popular Democracy in South Dakota (Washington, D.C: Public Affairs Press, 1967). Five biographies were of considerable use: Robert Sam Anson, McGovem: A Biography (New York: Holt, Rinehart & Winston. 1972): Calvin Perry Armin, "Cœ I.
