AAC&U Presentation: Globalizing Liberal Learning: Perspectives from Three Innovative Liberal Arts Colleges

Virtual Language Learning for Global Perspectives

The campus coordinators have prioritized allocating $12,000 from the CIEL reserve fund to support grant writing assistance for the virtual foreign language initiative. Envisioned at the 2008 CIEL annual meeting held at Prescott College, faculty and administrators from CIEL schools developed and prioritized several collaborative curricular and research projects that would employ technology to enable sharing of local faculty, curricula, field sites, and community learning resources across the consortium.  At that time, participants gave highest priority to the sharing of language learning resources and the sharing of “global perspective” learning outcomes across CIEL schools.  Since fall 2008, four CIEL institutions applied for and were accepted at the CIC Network for Effective Language Learning (NELL) institute where they have advanced the initiative.

The CIEL Virtual Language Learning project connects the mission of CIEL for innovative collaborations in higher education not only to the real technological and language curricula capacity challenges faced on individual campuses, but also to the pressing societal needs to address the U.S. “language deficit” and extend learning for a global perspective.  The combination of virtual language learning and immersive community-based learning opportunities towards shared learning outcomes enables the expansion of skill-based language learning as the integrative core to connect diverse curricula that build students’ translingual and transcultural competencies.

Through the CIEL Virtual Language Learning project, participating schools will develop the administrative and technological capacity for students from each campus to participate in language courses and programs offered at other CIEL schools.  Grant funding will be sought to build physical learning spaces equipped with the necessary video-conferencing technology to connect both to similar learning spaces at other campuses and field stations as well as to individual learners’ computers over the internet.  Currently Daemen, Marlboro, Hampshire, New College of Florida, Prescott, and Pitzer College have expressed interest in the collaboration.   PDFView concept

Faculty research and curricular collaboration

To advance viable curricular collaboration, the campus coordinators allocated funds for a mini-grant proposal process for collaborative research/creative work or curricular proposals from CIEL institutions that meet the following criteria: result in presentation or publication; include plans for future collaboration and sustainability; include faculty from two different campuses; and include students in the research component.  A call for proposals will be sent out in mid-November 2009.

Food Shed Research and Education Project

Given the geographic distribution of schools in CIEL, a great diversity of ecological and social landscapes is represented within the consortium.  The Foodshed research project will form the basis of a course, tentatively titled The Past, Present and Future of Foodshed in the school’s bioregion.  The research component will involve one or more faculty from participating CIEL institutions conducting interdisciplinary investigations on the past, present and possible futures of regional food sheds in which the schools are located.   The course will be project-based, as students research questions that are relevant to the broader Foodshed study.  Throughout the course, classes from the participating schools will “meet” with each other via virtual Web-based or satellite-based classrooms or technologies to share and discuss their respective findings.

The Past, Present and Future of Foodshed course is intended to stand alone for most students across the participating CIEL schools.  However, there will be an opportunity for some students to expand on their Foodshed interests by going into an entirely foreign cultural and biological landscape to apply their Foodshed analytical tools, and ultimately make contributions through service learning projects.  The proposed sites for a CIEL field-based Foodshed course are Iquitos, Peru and the greater Himalayan region of Nepal.

Grand Canyon Semester

Prescott College faculty members are looking for collaborators for a research and service project with Grand Canyon National Park.  In March, Jacob Fillion, Director of Environmental Education for the Park, came to Prescott to discuss their interest in establishing a partnership.  From the park’s perspective, having a rich cross section of faculty and students from around the country is a very important aspect of this project.  We envision an interdisciplinary, four course package to include the entire fall 2011 term that will offer a nice balance of classroom and field-based experiences. Prescott College and CIEL members are keenly positioned to help design and deliver a Grand Canyon Semester Program since we embrace a liberal arts approach to place-based experiential education; it would provide an outstanding educational opportunity for a diverse group of students.

Global and Local Citizenship Project

The Consortium surveyed 13 member schools regarding their stated outcomes for educating students to be competent global citizens.  This year-long project captured the clarity of language in the mission statements and general education (or equivalent) requirements at the member institutions regarding three elements of Global Citizenship:  Global Perspective, Civic Engagement and Environmental Perspective.  The goal was to define what a graduate who has attained competence looks like: what they know about and are able to do. The executive director will work with three CIEL schools (Alverno, Daemen and Pitzer) to refine a definition of global citizenship, describe common indicators, collect examples of activities that support the development of these/this competencies, and  collect current assessment tools (and narratives for context) from each campus.  Our goal is to develop a paper and prepare presentations on a mission based definition and appropriate indicators.

Environmental Rubric

In our collection of survey data from the Global Citizenship Project and in reviewing the AAC&U VALUE initiative we noticed that the VALUE project did not develop a rubric for Environmental Perspective, although the reality of assisting students to gain an understanding of the natural world and global environmental interconnections was clearly stated in the LEAP paper on College Learning for the New Global Century. The usefulness of having an external source to use for comparison provides an element of rigor and validation, and we have not found a source that has an equivalent level of collegial input to use as a comparison. The consortium is initiating a collaborative project to develop a rubric for an Environmental Perspective outcome, modeled on the format used for the VALUE rubrics.  We are building a team of faculty from CIEL colleges, EcoLeague colleges www.ecoleague.org  and from the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education www.aashe.org to participate in this project.  We anticipate having a working model by Fall 2010. PDFView draft rubric.

E-Portfolio Planning Grant 2012

The ePortfolio planning project will be a collaborative effort among five CIEL institutions to more fully conceptualize (e.g. develop a sequence of actions that tie our investments to our intended results) and plan the comparative study refining and using the following objectives: u887Organize portfolios around the progressive mission of each institution utilizing  learning outcomes or courses such as the PC “competencies,” AC “abilities,”  or the Daemen College (DC) “learning matrix” and informed by the VALUE rubric project. Share current practices between institutions and learn from each other to enhance student learning and institutional success. Share practices that allow CIEL institutions to have better accountability to multiple stake holders (e.g. campus leaders, professional and regional accrediting agencies, parents). Improve students’ ability to track formative self-assessment and summative assessment for deeper learning. Develop and deploy rubrics to improve self-reflection and self-assessment practices for students and faculty to track progress, measure learning at appropriate benchmarks, demonstrate learning, build exemplars for later employment, etc., of uploaded artifacts. Explore consistency of use within CIEL institutions (shared measureable outcomes such as integrated learning) in order the do comparable data sharing and conduct comparable research. Research, join and track current national conversation – AAC&U and AAEEBL (AAC&U ePortfolio workshops and AAEEBL meeting in Jan or Feb.) Document CEIL experiences and preliminary conclusions to propel the discussion forward for all CEIL and other institutions already engaged in ePortfolio use. Explore methods of faculty development and evaluation through the use of ePortfolios. Create exemplars for assessment strategies for both institutional review and student learning including alternatives to using traditional grades. Create best practices specifically for progressive institutions that have a limited use of letter grades, use narrative transcripts, and document integrative and experiential learning through an authentic capstone experience or other performance/project based assessment. Present and disseminate results at national conferences

Project partners have surveyed current practices, including the extent to which ePortfolio use has been incorporated at their institutions, as well as associated issues and goals within each institutional setting.  The participating institutions have shared their concerns and challenges and three institutions attended the ePortfolio forum at the 2012 AAC&U meeting.  The planning grant from the Teagle Foundation will bring faculty members and institutional researchers together to plan a multi-year project that combines research by faculty from partner schools with a comparative study of the very distinct pedagogical and reflective practices that define CIEL schools. One product of the study will be the identification of strategies for the integration of ePortfolios into pedagogy for other non-CIEL schools and the dissemination of these strategies through the CIEL website, national presentations and other publications.

Curriculum and Course Sharing 2009

Technology links on all campuses enable students to enroll in a single course at another institution and faculty to team-teach courses across two institutions. As faculty have met their peers, and perhaps more importantly, as students have met faculty at other CIEL schools, there is more excitement about these possibilities.

CIEL Border Studies Program

CIEL envisions a program of study that supports the development of applied global perspectives and reimagines the relationship between learning, research, and “border” communities.  As the economic interdependencies, flows of people, and environmental, human rights, and cultural crises wrought by globalization continue to spread out from territorial border regions, national interiors increasingly experience the social and cultural bisections described by scholars and community organizations as “borderization”.  By networking existing courses, programs, and collaborative research, The CIEL Border Studies Program brings students, faculty, and community members together to address the problems facing populations most negatively impacted by these global forces of integration/segregation.

Foodshed Research and Education Project

Given the geographic distribution of schools in CIEL, a great diversity of ecological and social landscapes is represented within the consortium.  We propose to take advantage of this geographic representation, as well as the shared value for innovative learning held by CIEL institutions, to implement a foodshed research and education project.  The research component will involve one or more faculty from participating CIEL institutions conducting interdisciplinary investigations on the past, present and possible futures of regional foodsheds in which the schools are located.  Faculty from a wide range of fields, including history, agroecology, hydrology, climatology, anthropology, economics, ethnobiology, and geography are encouraged to participate.  The research will reveal how local food cultures and agricultures developed historically, how these changed with the industrialization of agriculture in the twentieth century, and how communities in the short and long term might best respond to the current challenges of diminishing fossil fuels, climate change, globalization, immigration policy, as well as others.

Southwest Field Study Center

CIEL members Hampshire College and Prescott College are working together on collaborative field and community-based projects in the Arizona Sonora borderlands. The campuses are developing programs of study that can take advantage of the rich environmental, political, and cultural opportunities in the region. The first such program was offered in the fall of 2005.

The Bellows Foundation provided support toward the initial gatherings to create this initiative.

CIEL Voices and Visions

Each year, CIEL solicits works from students for an exciting collaborative online student journal: CIEL Voices and Visions.These pieces are created in response to a question in a writing or printmaking class, a prompt for an external learning journal, or a project in a class addressing a theme or issue. Some are created outside of any class or formal projects as expressions of voice and vision.

Students submit works to the faculty CIEL coordinators at their respective institutions, who submits them to the CIEL editor.

The journal is published annually on the web and gives students opportunities to present their creative and scholarly work to real audiences.  For more information about the student journal, contact Nancy Mattina at nmattina@prescott.edu.

Collaborative Grants 2004-2007

CIEL was established through a collaborative grant from the Fund for Improvement in Postsecondary Education. Daemen College (lead), Pitzer College, and New College of Florida collaborated to develop a grant funded by The Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE). Biotechnology in Health Care was awarded a grant of $214,596 for three years; activities began September 1, 2004 and extend to August 31, 2007. The Colleges, in partnership with Athlone Institute of Technology, lead (Athlone, Ireland), Umwelt-Campus Birkenfeld, University of Trier (Birkenfeld ,Germany), and Central Ostrobothnia Polytechnic (Kokkola, Finland), are developing a model for a one-semester international exchange of science students. The program will educate students in aspects of biotechnology related to healthcare, specifically wound care research, and help prepare students in the health care professions to better address pressing health needs that require interdisciplinary team approaches and are global in scope.

Data-driven forecasting without a model and with a partially known model.
Tyrus Berry, Penn State University

Nonparametric forecasts based on local linearization of the shift map using a training data set were originally developed for low-dimensional chaotic systems.  In this research, jointly developed with Dimitris Giannakis and John Harlim, we make a rigorous connection between the shift map and the forward operator for ergodic stochastic differential equations on manifolds.  Estimating the forward operator gives us the ability to forecast full probability densities, and by representing these densities in a basis of smooth functions the forward operator becomes a matrix.  We show that the diffusion maps algorithm approximates the optimal basis for representing the forward operator.  However, the curse-of-dimensionality continues to restrict this nonparametric model to low-dimensional systems.  To address this issue we introduce two methods of lifting the nonparametric approach to high-dimensional problems.  In the first case, we assume that we have no knowledge of the model, but that we know the spatial structure of the data, allowing us to decompose the dynamics into Fourier modes for which nonparametric models can be built.  In the second case, we assume that a partial model is available, and that the unknown `model error' is low-dimensional in an appropriate sense.  We show that it is possible to extract and learn the unknown component of the model resulting in significantly improved forecasting.

Have You Seen This Child?

Psssst… Excuse me… Have you seen this baby? I miss him terribly.

His name was Danny, and he was a warm, snuggly baby with an infectious laugh that could melt my heart, even after the longest, most-draining of days. It seems like I just saw him a month or two ago; the date stamp on my photos showing they were taken 15-16 years ago cannot possibly be correct. No, that can’t be right at all.

If you haven’t seen Danny, I wonder if you know the whereabouts of this boy – his name was Dan.

Mischievous and inquisitive, he was hungry to learn about everything he could. He spent his free time learning about the world around him and testing his limits. He was also still enough of a child to dole out affection liberally and wasn’t embarrassed about hugging mom and dad. I’m sure I just saw him a couple of weeks ago. Pay no attention to the date stamps showing these photos are 7-8 years old. There must be a problem with the dates, for it feels like I took these just yesterday.

No? You haven’t seen Dan either? Wherever Danny and Dan have gone, in their place is a 6’ tall young man named Daniel. Sometimes, a facial expression will remind me of that baby and child, but Daniel has the deep voice and strength of a full-grown man. And, I guess that’s pretty close to the truth. You see, he’ll be 17 tomorrow.

At this age, Daniel is caught somewhere between the carefree world of boyhood and the responsibilities of adulthood; every day brings some new lesson about how to be a young adult.

This past year has seen him become independently mobile with his driver’s license (well, independent when we let him borrow the car, that is) and get his first paying job, outside the house. Working as a cashier has taught him some valuable lessons about human nature and responsibility; I’m sure he could write an entertaining blog of his own about some of his experiences.

This time of year, I always find myself getting nostalgic and prone to reminiscing about days gone by. It’s silly, really; I love this young man at this age just as much as I’ve loved him at any other age. My heart, and my eyes, well up when I think about how proud I am of the man he’s becoming. So, why is late March so emotionally-charged for me, and why do I find myself wishing I could hold that baby boy or take my little boy’s hand crossing the street again, just one more time? This is what I signed on for as a parent, right?

Maybe I’m realizing that I’m running out of time to teach him everything I think he needs to learn to get by on his own in the world. At the same time, I’m realizing that it’s not up to me to teach him everything – the wider world will fill that role for me, like it or not.

As a parent, I want to see my child succeed, of course. But, he has to be the one to define what “success” looks like – not me, not his father, not his teachers or friends. Him. All we can do is point him in the direction we think is best, let his make his own decisions and mistakes, and let him know that we’ll be here for him when he needs us.

Still… Even as I want to give him the whole world, a piece of my heart still yearns for the days when his father and I were his whole world.

I need to remind myself that the next time I catch a glimpse of that baby or little boy in his smile or in his laughter, that he’s really Danny/Dan/Daniel all rolled into one wonderful human being.

With all my heart, happy 17th birthday, kiddo.

  1. Whew! You had me worried there at the beginning!
    It’s hard watching them almost grow away from you, but if it works out like my daughters, it will be worth it when he comes back to you a grown man. I’m so glad I had every year, but I wouldn’t change the relationships I have with my grown daughters for anything. Hang in there, Mom!

  2. I agree with the others. I felt emotional while reading this, Cindy! My girls are young (2 and 6) and I already feel like time is slipping away.

    I liked your use of photos/nicknames/stories together to paint a picture of baby, then boy, and grown man. It helped me connect with your stories. Great job!

  3. Very emotional piece! My son will be 27 this year, so I have 10 years on you, and I can tell you that watching them apply what you have taught them (and trust me, you have probably taught him more than you realize) will make your heart swell. We had some rough college years, but we’re on the other side of that, and we have a great relationship. Plus, my daughter blessed us with a grandbaby last year and that’s when you will see your own babies all over again.

  4. Happy birthday, Danny/Dan/Daniel! If you’re anything like the mother I think you are from reading your pieces, you have heaps of time to still give life lessons since I’m sure he’ll still come to you after he leaves the nest. Still, lovely piece. Thanks for letting us a little bit more into your world. 🙂

Golden Arrow pleads for police help after more Cape Town buses torched

File image: Wayne Dyson, Cape Town law enforcement

On Friday, three buses were torched near the Symphony Way bridge in the vicinity of the N2 national route.

Golden Arrow Bus Services (GABS) has pleaded for more help from police after its bus drivers and Cape Town’s fire and rescue officers came under attack on Monday morning during a protest.

“This cannot continue – we need help and we need it now,” said GABS spokesperson Bronwen Dyke-Beyer.

Fire and rescue spokesperson Jermaine Carelse said two GABS buses had been torched during the protest and that, when the fire and rescue unit went out to help, the firefighters came under attack by an “extremely volatile” group.

It happened near the New Eisleben and Mpumelelo streets in Philippi.

Firefighters had to withdraw and police had to escort the fire and rescue specialists in again later to finish the job.

On Friday, three buses were torched near the Symphony Way bridge in the vicinity of the N2 national route. Two of the buses were gutted and one was “salvageable”. The passengers had to be taken home.

Last week, firefighters trying to put out a fire in nearby Delft South came under attack during load shedding, even with a police escort.

A brick was thrown at their windscreen and extra back-up was requested so that they could try and leave the area safely.

The crew was so shaken up that, after speaking to a chaplain, they were sent home, leaving Belhar Fire Station non-operational for the night.

Dyke-Beyer said both of the buses were completely gutted on Monday.

Five of the company’s buses have been completely gutted in the last two weeks.

“Fortunately, no injuries were reported and only the drivers were on board,” she said.

The company called on the police and other authorities to keep drivers and passengers safe, and for those responsible to be caught.

READ MORE: Golden Arrow buses set alight by protesters on N2, Cape Town

The company is almost 160 years old, and has grown to become part of the joint ventures between the City of Cape Town and its MyCiTi bus service.

With an ailing rail infrastructure, due to rampant cable theft and vandalism, and an impasse over a bus contract for the N2 Express from Khayelitsha, passengers are facing increasingly limited public transport options in some parts of Cape Town.

Taxis have become the solution for many, but there are also fears regarding catching a taxi, after shootings on Thursday and Friday.

City community safety MMC JP Smith sounded the alarm over this again last week, saying the attacks had devastating consequences for people who need emergency services.

“Not only does it slow down response times, as fire crews do not enter volatile areas without a police escort, but given the escalation in attacks – even with an escort – the City might be forced to withdraw this service altogether where unrest is being experienced,” he said.

A case of public violence and malicious damage to property is being investigated by police.

Police spokesperson Sergeant Noloyiso Rwexana said according to reports, about 70 people from an informal settlement were conducting a service delivery protest.

“They blocked the road, two buses were torched and motorists were thrown with stones. No one has been arrested. Police are monitoring the situation,” she said.

Police are investigating an incident where a 14-seater matatu heading to Nairobi from Nyahururu town was hijacked on Saturday night and passengers robbed of their belongings.

According to police, one of the passengers requested to alight, the driver stopped and came out of the vehicle to remove a luggage from the carrier belonging to the said passenger.

Suddenly, the said passenger turned to be a robber and four people emerged and took charge of the vehicle, ordering all the passengers including the driver to lie down inside the matatu.

The vehicle was driven to an unknown location where the passengers were robbed of their cash and money in their M-Pesa and KCB M-Pesa accounts totaling to over Ksh.100,000 and electronics.

No one was injured during the 9.30pm incident.

After the robbery, the driver was given back the vehicle and drove to Lari Police Station where he reported the matter.

“I watched her on countless occasions blatantly lie to the American people and knowingly lie.”…Linda Tripp

“By July 1993, the Clintons and their associates had established
a pattern of concealment with respect to the Clintons’ involvement
with Whitewater and the Madison S&L. Because of the complexity
of the allegations of misdeeds involving these institutions, documents
and files are critical to any inquiries into the matter. Yet,
at every important turn, crucial files and documents ‘‘disappeared’’

From NBC News May 5, 2016.

“Hacker ‘Guccifer’: I Got Inside Hillary Clinton’s Server”

“The Romanian hacker who first exposed Hillary Clinton’s private email address is making a bombshell new claim — that he also gained access to the former Secretary of State’s “completely unsecured” server.

“It was like an open orchid on the Internet,” Marcel Lehel Lazar, who uses the devilish handle Guccifer, told NBC News in an exclusive interview from a prison in Bucharest. “There were hundreds of folders.”

Lazar was extradited last month from Romania to the United States to face charges he hacked political elites, including Gen. Colin Powell, a member of the Bush family, and former Clinton advisor Sidney Blumenthal.

A source with knowledge of the probe into Clinton’s email setup told NBC News that with Guccifer in U.S. custody, investigators fully intend to question him about her server.

When pressed by NBC News, Lazar, 44, could provide no documentation to back up his claims, nor did he ever release anything online supporting his allegations, as he had frequently done with past hacks. The FBI’s review of the Clinton server logs showed no sign of hacking, according to a source familiar with the case.”

    “The fact that the Secretary exclusively used and maintained a private email server, leaving her with sole and unfettered access to the complete universe of her emails, raises a number of transparency and accountability issues. The fact that the Secretary’s attorneys selfselected the emails to be shared with the State Department raises numerous questions about the completeness of the production of Secretary Clinton’s emails to the Committee, as well as more generally in response to other oversight inquiries by the House with which the Committee has been charged. These questions, which have been raised solely due to the actions of the former Secretary, necessitate a third-party review of the server to ensure that all responsive documents have been produced to the Committee.”…Trey Gowdy

    “Romanian hacker Guccifer: I breached Clinton server, ‘it was easy'”

    “For example, when Sidney Blumenthal got an email, I checked the email pattern from Hillary Clinton, from Colin Powell from anyone else to find out the originating IP. … When they send a letter, the email header is the originating IP usually,” Lazar explained.

    He said, “then I scanned with an IP scanner.”

    Lazar emphasized that he used readily available web programs to see if the server was “alive” and which ports were open. Lazar identified programs like netscan, Netmap, Wireshark and Angry IP, though it was not possible to confirm independently which, if any, he used.

    In the process of mining data from the Blumenthal account, Lazar said he came across evidence that others were on the Clinton server.

    “As far as I remember, yes, there were … up to 10, like, IPs from other parts of the world,” he said.

    With no formal computer training, he did most of his hacking from a small Romanian village.

    Lazar said he chose to use “proxy servers in Russia,” describing them as the best, providing anonymity.

    Cyber experts who spoke with Fox News said the process Lazar described is plausible. The federal indictment Lazar faces in the U.S. for cyber-crimes specifically alleges he used “a proxy server located in Russia” for the Blumenthal compromise.”

    Former Presidents George H. W. Bush and George W. Bush will sit out the 2016 election and will not endorse Donald Trump, the presumptive GOP nominee, Fox News reported Thursday.

    On Wednesday, the Texas Tribune reported that the two men will stay on the sidelines.

    Freddy Ford, an aide to George W. Bush said his boss “does not plan to participate in or comment on the presidential campaign.”

    “At age 91, President Bush is retired from politics,” added Bush 41 spokesman Jim McGrath. “He came out of retirement to do a few things for Jeb, but those were the exceptions that proved the rule.”

    According to the Tribune, the elder Bush has endorsed every GOP presidential nominee since losing his 1992 re-election bid to Bill Clinton. George W. Bush also campaigned on behalf of Sen. John McCain in 2008 and Mitt Romney in 2012.

    Both Bushes campaigned heavily for Jeb Bush earlier this year, but he dropped out after disappointing results in the first three presidential contests. Neither former president made an endorsement during the rest of the primary season, though George W. Bush was recorded last year telling donors “I just don’t like” Sen. Ted Cruz.

    George W. Bush has also taken jabs at Trump, Fox added, saying that “we do not need someone in the Oval Office who mirrors and inflames our anger and frustration.”

    “Strength is not empty rhetoric,” he added. “It is not bluster. It is not theatrics. Real strength, strength of purpose, comes from integrity and character. And, in my experience, the strongest person usually isn’t the loudest one in the room.”

    Trump has also attacked the younger Bush, blaming him for the 9/11 terror attack and accusing him of lying to get the U.S. into Iraq.

    This article should tell every American that for the last 30 years both political parties have been working for one goal…to enslave everyone in this thing they are calling ….A NEW WORLD ORDER….Daddy bush called it …A THOUSAND POINT OF LIGHT….but make no mistake about it. It is the same.

    This should also tell everyone they are voting for the RIGHT man, when the party he is running on won’t give their open support to him. this begs the question, “Why”?.. the answer is simple.

    For thirty years the people have been lied to on a massive scale. The sad thing is, the people also believed those lies …and each lie took away a little more of our freedom and liberty….

    Now a Man, who has lots of skin in this game comes along who says he will fix it. This does not sit well with the ‘establishment’, which is just another word for organized Washington crime ring sitting on both sides of the isle in Congress.

    This open and blatant refusal by both former presidents of the republican party is shocking and shameful. perhaps it tells the American public that Mr. Trump knows more about the Bush family than he is now telling we the people. I for one have always said that Daddy bush was in Dallas when JFK was killed…what I did not know at that time was that Daddy Bush had “Zapata” oil interest in Canada…..but I found out when the picture of Ted Cruz’s dad emerged in Dallas, and he was later exiled to Canada to work for “Zapata oil there….which of course was a CIA operation run by Daddy Bush…..

    I have always said the 911 situation has great big gapping holes in the story. Gaps at the Pentagon, gaps at the field in Penn., and gaps in NYC. Perhaps Trump has valid information that can fill in the gaps in all of these areas. Could that be why the BUSHs will not support Donald Trump ?

    It really is a ‘small world’, Then an honest man comes along who wants to expose all the wickedness…and you become witness to all the crooks trying to stop him.

    With the entire America’s elite “Who’s Who”, both democrat and republican, throwing rocks at Donald Trump, can he be so wrong and unworthy for the seat he will soon occupy….if he can stay alive long enough?

    Donald rump has the opportunity before him now to be the greatest president our nation has ever had, if he can follow through on his promises and if he can avoid falling into the same old ‘Washington tar pit’ that has engulfed every president since George Washington.

    No Bush endorsement.
    I would wear that like a badge of honor.

Honey Street

034 - CopyWell…….as the picture shows…..the honey bees are here and I am stoked!  Stoked like the memories of my childhood on Christmas morning when we waited for our parents to finally say we could come down stairs to see what Santa brought.  It’s nice to feel that kind of excitement again.

I picked up my 2 colonies last weekend from a beekeeper I met a few years back.    With nuc boxes secured and thousands of passengers in tow, we all headed down a country road to begin a new chapter in life.  As we worked our way home, with windows down and a great “chill” cd on play; my mind drifted back to a favorite Van Morrison song titled  Pagan Streams “….and we could dream, and keep bees and live on Honey Street”.  I remember first hearing that song all the way back in 1991 and thinking that keeping honey bees would be really cool.  I’m glad that day has arrived.

Making A Water Source For Your Honeybees

020 - CopyOver the last few months, I’ve spent a fair bit of time reading about making a water source for my bees.  I’ve read about folks using bird baths, slow dripping faucets and garden ponds.  I’ve also learnt that bees have an uncanny ability to find water and once they “lock” onto a source, it’s pretty hard (if not impossible) to make them change their pattern.

Being a consciences urban homeowner, I do my best to respect the rights of my neighbors and fully understand that my bees will not be a welcomed addition to anyone’s backyard space.  For those beekeepers that have neighbors with pools, the  aforementioned is even more apparent, considering that bees really like chlorine and salt.

So…….I began to think about how to make a water source for my bees.  I had 5 criteria that had to be met:

1)  It had to look good.  I’ll be looking at my apiary most days and I want it to tie in with the appearance of my backyard.

2)  I don’t want to replenish the water source every day.  If I decide to go on  vacation, I don’t want to rely on a neighbor to “top up” my water source during my absence.

3)  I don’t want my chickens to be able to get into the water source while they are free ranging.

4)  I don’t want my bees to drown while they are using the source.

5)  I don’t want my water source to become a breeding ground for mosquitos.

So………I constructed a tall box that would not have a top or bottom.  Inside the box will be a 16″ cinderblock (standing on its end) and a 5 gallon (food grade) plastic pail resting on the block. Floating at the top of the water will be a landing pad for the bees to safely access the water.

The  front & back of the box are  3/4″ thick x 15″ wide x 30″ high.  The sides are 3/4″ thick x 13 1/2″ wide x 30″ high.  All material is pine and assembled with a simple butt joint and glued and screwed together.  If you  want to get a bit more fancy, you can:

A) Use a scroll saw to cut out a design in the front006 - Copy

B) Counter-sink the screw hole locations and (once assembled) fill the hole with a wood plug which will be trimmed off and sanded.003

008 - Copy

C)  Add some mitered trim to the top of the box.014 - Copy

In order to make the “landing pad”, I cut a circle out of some 1/2″ thick cedar and drilled lots of 1/4″ holes in the circle.  Because the bucket has a slight taper, I made the circumference of the landing pad to be the same as the bottom of the pail.  This will allow for the “landing pad”  to descend as the volume diminishes in the bucket.  I didn’t have a wide enough board to make the entire circle, so I screwed (not glued) two pieces together with a few  cleats.

021 - Copy

This landing pad will work well because  the cedar floats and the water wicks up from the holes making for safe and easy access for the bees.

023 - Copy

After a quick search, I discovered that a mosquito takes around 7-10 days to develop from egg to adult.  By replacing the water every week, I will not be “helping” mosquitos to further populate in this water.

So….there you have it……….my water source for my bees.  I just hope it works and my neighbor Vito doesn’t come traipsing over to my house in July dressed only in his 1978 Speedo bathing suite complaining about some bees in his pool!!!!!!!!!!!!!026 - Copy

I recently provided editing services and consultation for a couple who was making a video for the wife’s parents’ 50th anniversary. Her father was high up in the Navy and they had lived all over the world, so it was quite a story, involving submarines and senior U.S. officials and six children.

Below is a screenshot from the credits, which I had no part in writing. This is without a doubt the most illustrious company I will ever, ever keep in a “Special Thanks” section. Gotta love alphabetization.

iPhone 8 May Be A Rare Find Next Year; Google May Add Hondas to Self-Driving Fleet

We’ve been seeing reports for months about the exciting iPhone 8 with curved OLED screens that cover virtually the whole front, and have wireless charging and all. Apparently, it’s going to be a treasure hunt trying to get your hands on one next year. Bgr.com reports that the screens will probably be made by Samsung, but there’s a bottleneck…only one company….Canon Tokki, makes the 328 foot long, 85 million dollar machines that can build the OLED screens, and there’s a two year wait time to get one! A lot of folks may have to settle for a ‘boring’ iPhone 7s or 7s Plus next fall!

Google’s self-driving division Waymo is maturing beyond the funny little Googlemobiles with no steering wheel or pedals. According to businessinsider.com, Waymo…which has rolled out a fleet of Fiat Chrysler minivans and had previously had Lexus SUVs running their system, is now in talks with Honda about integrating Google’s self-driving system into a fleet of Honda cars. Google is still shooting for Level 5 autonomy…which is the car driving itself completely autonomously with no human interaction or supervision.

Clay Cemetery

Documenting and preserving Clay Cemetery in Atlanta's Kirkwood community

History of the land belonging to the Clay family

1 Comment

Jesse Clay Sr. (1786-1871) emigrated from Monticello, Jasper County, Georgia in 1826 with his wife, three sons, and daughter to settle in DeKalb County. He purchased Land Lots 206 and 207 of the 15th District, DeKalb County, from Taylor & Watts of Jasper County that year and made the final payment by traveling to South Carolina and back by horseback. He and his family initially lived on the property in a tent and drew water from a spring at Wade’s Place Hollow (thought to be today’s Gilliam Park). They cleared the native hardwood forest and farmed the land until Jesse’s death in 1871.

The approximately 250 acres originated from Cherokee Indian tribal lands distributed to Henry Britton of Clarke County on 11/4/1823 following the 1821 Land Lottery. The property passed to Taylor & Watts of Jasper County, Georgia and then to Jesse Clay Sr. His son Greenberry (1820-1886) owned a large parcel adjoining to the southeast (including today’s Kirkwood Urban Forest Park) which was operated as a dairy farm.

It is thought that Jesse Clay Sr. financed purchase of the land through the sale of 10 slaves (six male and four female) which show in the 1820 Federal Census of his family, no slave ownership being recorded for him in the subsequent 1830 Federal Census.

Around the time of Jesse Sr.’s death in 1871 his holdings were subdivided into parcels averaging 10-11 acres each. Son Cleveland (1836-1909), a Confederate veteran of the Civil War, inherited much of the land and the family was active in many land transactions throughout the 1800’s. Another son, Joseph Clay (1817- ?), purchased Lot 9 of 10 acres for $220.00 at Jesse Clay’s estate sale, a parcel which included Clay Cemetery.

The Clay lands subsequently became the western third of the incorporated City of Kirkwood (1892-1926) and were bordered to the south by today’s Memorial Drive and to the north by the curve of Gilliam Park. The eastern two thirds of Kirkwood evolved from lands owned by the Kirkpatrick and Dunwoody families, a combination of which produced the name “Kirkwood”.

The majority of Clay land was further subdivided into residential parcels during sales to the Atlanta Suburban Land Company in 1892 with the family retaining the Clay home at Boulevard Dekalb (now Hosea Williams Drive) between Clay and Wyman Streets at approximately the S.W. corner of today’s Hosea Williams and Clifton, Clay Cemetery, and other parcels including Cleveland Clay’s home on Clay Street.

Two title searches and a survey have failed to identify a title or deed to Clay Cemetery. It appears to exist “by exclusion”, meaning it has retained parcel identity through repeated exclusion from neighboring parcels and deeds as well as being identified across time on multiple subdivision plats as separate from other parcels.

(Research and writing by Earl Williamson, 2013.)

One thought on “History of the land belonging to the Clay family

  1. The Joseph Clay you mention in paragraph 4 was my 3rd great-grandfather. He died in 1886 in Haralson Co, GA, and was buried in a family cemetery near Tallapoosa. There is a headstone giving his date of birth and death.

From the author Judas, who betrayed Jesus and Peter, who denied Jesus, both hit a low point in their lives when it looked as if they were done with Jesus forever. Yet these men responded in very different ways. Judas separated from the other disciples and gave up on faith in Christ completely. Peter chose a different and a better path. Friend, if you are struggling with the faith you once professed, or if you are hanging on but feel you lack the strength to continue, I pray that your future path will be like Peter's and not like Judas'. Christ rose. The tomb is empty. And that means that the future belongs to Him.

Robert Cook Edwards

From ClemsonWiki
Revision as of 01:06, 3 January 2012 by (talk)
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Robert Cook Edwards (1914-2008), served as Clemson University's eighth and longest-serving president, 1958-1979. Edwards graduated from Clemson in the Class of 1933, the second alumnus to hold the head position.

Early years

Edwards was born March 25, 1914 in Fountain Inn, South Carolina, the son of John T. and Effie Cook Edwards. He distinguished himself early by his industriousness and won a scholarship to Clemson Agricultural College at the conclusion of his tenth grade school year. During his undergraduate days, he served as a manager for the football team, as well as participating in Phi Psi, Blue Key, Tiger Brotherhood and Scabbard and Blade. (TAPS 1969, Volume 59, page 340.) His classmates called him "Smokey". At age nineteen, he graduated in 1933 with a Bachelor of Science degree in textile engineering and a commission as a second lieutenant through the college's military cadet program. His senior picture in TAPS carried the motto, "Determination makes dreams come true."

Hired after graduation by J.P. Stevens in Greenville, South Carolina, Edwards moved steadily up the corporate ladder in textile manufacturing. He married Louise Odom of Red Springs, North Carolina, May 30, 1935, and they had two children, son, Robert C. Jr., in 1936, and daughter, Nancy Louise, in 1940. Called up for military duty in the United States Army during World War II, he returned to the textiles field in 1946, landing a position as plant manager of Abbeville Mills Corporation, a division of the emerging corporate giant, Deering-Milliken. Two years later, the corporation promoted him to the executive position of treasurer and general manager of the Abbeville group, said The Tiger on April 20, 1979 (page 15). "Through his boss and textile magnate, Roger Milliken, Edwards cultivated a close friendship with Charles E. Daniel, the founder of a large construction company and, beginning in 1949, a life member of the board of trustees of Clemson." (Wainscott, Stephen H., "A Take-Charge Businessman: Robert Cook Edwards, 1958-1979", "Tradition: A History of the Presidency of Clemson University", McKale, Donald M., editor, Mercer University Press, Macon, Georgia, 1988, ISBN 0-86554-296-1, page 188.)

Return to Clemson

While working for Deering-Milliken, Edwards maintained ties with his alma mater, serving as president of IPTAY, 1954-1955. He declined an offer from Clemson to become dean of the school of textiles, but in July 1956 the 42-year-old executive made an abrupt move from textile administration to college administration, his "second career", when he accepted a position more to his liking, that of vice president for development, a newly established position at the college. This office was a direct result of a 1955 report prepared by New York-based consulting firm, Cresap, McCormick, and Paget, which examined the school's administrative and "nonacademic" activities, suggested by such trustees as Charles Daniel and James F. Byrnes. The CMP critique was sweeping and severe, finding numerous significant problems, among them, excessive involvement of the board in administrative details, a surplus of administrators reporting to the president, poor admission and graduation standards, and low faculty salaries. ("Tradition", page 189.)

The report recommended reorganization of the administration, "reducing the number of officers reporting to the president from twenty-five to four, one of whom was the new vice-president for development, the post filled a year later by Edwards. In addition, the CMP report proposed that required military training be discontinued, that the college open its doors to women, that entrance requirements for students be strengthened, and that faculty salaries be increased." ("Minutes of Board", 1 July 1955; and Cresap, McCormick and Paget, "Clemson Agricultural College Survey of Administrative Management," 4 volumes, 30 April 1955, cited in "Tradition", page 189.)

"As vice president for development [Edwards] oversaw fund-raising and supervised public and alumni relations. However, according to the CMP report, his principal responsibility - the one that would have a critical bearing on putting the report into operation - was to 'originate and coordinate all studies affecting the component units in such areas as enrollment, building planning, long-range finance, and the role of each of the component parts of the system.'" Edwards faced resistance from some administration "old guard" including President Robert Franklin Poole and his loyalists, who regarded the impending changes with suspicion and the new vice president as an outsider, even if an alumnus. "In those days, [Edwards] maintained, chains of command were not always clear and many administrators considered themselves autonomous. Department heads drove cars furnished by the college and often looked at their departments as their own personal kingdoms. But that would end if the CMP reforms were adopted. Naturally those who felt threatened viewed Edwards with anxiety." ("Tradition", page 190.)

Internecine battles took second place, though, in 1956, to the threat to the Clemson campus by the planned U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' creation of the Hartwell Dam and Reservoir project whose proposed 660 foot MSL level would flood 9,000 acres of land, including the college's priceless bottom lands, and many campus landmarks including Memorial Stadium. "Almost from the outset it was understood that Edwards, not President Poole, would be the coordinator of the strategy to protect Clemson's interests in the Hartwell matter." ("Tradition", page 191.) A publicity campaign was mounted, a congressional delegation touring the campus on November 19, 1956, and in 1957 an agreement was reached that included a diversion of the Seneca River and creation of dams to protect low-lying areas of the campus. Although the project had been approved by the United States Congress in 1950, the delay by the Board of Trustees in reacting to the threat to the campus until 1955 was symptomatic of the disfunction of the board's micromanagement style cited in the CMP report. ("Tradition", page 194.)

New president - New era

In March 1958, plans were developed by President Poole to seek his successor, although he announced no firm retirement date. Barely had a search committee been formed, when Poole died suddenly of a heart attack during Alumni weekend on June 6, 1958. The trustees named Edwards acting president at a meeting on June 8. At their meeting on April 9, 1959, the board unanimously adopted State Senator and trustee Edgar A. Brown's motion that Edwards be chosen permanent president of the college. ("Tradition", pages 195-196.)

Clemson Agricultural College was remade under Edwards stewardship. At least six of the nine colleges extant when he retired in 1979 were created in this period: the College of Architecture, (1958); the College of Industrial Management and Textile Science, (1962); the College of Nursing, (1968); the College of Liberal Arts, (1969); the College of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, (also in 1969); and the College of Forest and Recreation Resources, (1970). The first Ph.D. program in agriculture in the state was offered in 1958; the first Ph.D. program in engineering in the state began in 1965. (The Tiger, April 20, 1979, page 15.)

The first women's dormitory was occupied in 1963, and the school peacefully integrated with the admission of African-American architecture student Harvey Gantt on January 28 of that same year. On March 11, 1964, Clemson Agricultural College of South Carolina was formally renamed Clemson University. "What dramatized the school's new status the most was the rapid increase in its enrollment. During the fall semester of the 1964-1965 academic year, 4,588 students attended the university. A decade later the number of students surpassed 10,000." ("Tradition", page 205.) The Tiger reported on April 20, 1979, that "[t]he growth of Clemson over the Edwards' era can be recorded in the number of degrees awarded. Before 1958, a total of 12,847 degrees had been awarded. Since then, 27,563 degrees have been awarded, including all of the 502 doctorates." (Page 15.)

"The rise in the university budget during the Edwards' era has been equally dramatic," said The Tiger. "The 1957-58 budget was $11.2 million; it doubled to $26.2 million in 1967-68; by 1972-73, the budget had nearly doubled again to $47.2 million; even this budget of six years ago doubled again to $94.8 million in 1978-79." (Page 15.)

"During Edwards' tenure at Clemson, at least 58 buildings or building additions have been completed, including major academic, athletic and student facilities." (The Tiger, page 15.) These include the Cook Engineering Laboratory, (1965); Robert Muldrow Cooper Library, (1966); the Low Rises, Mauldin Hall, (1963), Barnett Hall, (1965) and Smith Hall, (1972); the Shoeboxes, Cope Hall, (1965), Geer Hall and Sanders Hall, (1966); the High Rises, Manning Hall, (1967), Lever Hall, (1968) and Byrnes Hall, (1970); Daniel Hall, Littlejohn Coliseum, Rhodes Engineering Research Center and Schilletter Dining Hall, (1968); Redfern Health Center and Strode Tower, (1969); the Alumni Center, (1972); Jervey Athletic Center, (1973); Barre Hall, the Edgar A. Brown University Union, and Jordan Hall, (1976); and Edwards Hall, (1977).

There were two areas in which controversy occurred during the Edwards administration, however, the first small, the second not so small. During the 1960s, as American involvement in the war in Southeast Asia grew, national campus unrest and activism against the war led to protests at several institutions of higher learning. Although Clemson "was in many ways a conservative institution in a traditionally conservative state," ("Tradition", pages 205-206) and the few disturbances resembled pranks rather than rebellions, the board of trustees and administration were keen to keep it that way. Edwards adopted a policy, ratified by the board, that students involved in such protests would be given a "one-way ticket home." He further denied a request for a regional "peace moratorium" to be held on campus in November 1969, the decision for which was upheld by local courts.

In the wake of four students being slain by Ohio Army National Guard troops at Kent State University in May 1971, Edwards attended the conference of the National Association of State Universities and Land-Grant Colleges, held in Chicago. "Edwards, who administered a relatively tranquil institution, found the testimony offered by several of his fellow university presidents unsettling. The meeting crystallized even further his fears regarding the relationship between campus disorder and uncontrolled growth of enrollment and confirmed his belief that Clemson should limit its student numbers." ("Tradition", page 206.) This led to a cap of 10,000 students, an enrollment that was reached in 1974.

The other area of controversy and concern had to do with control of the sports programs, and which had larger consequences. Possibly as a result of his status as an alumnus, President Edwards drew great pleasure from Clemson sports. This had the direct effect of allowing both the basketball and football programs to expand without sufficient controls such that both ended up with NCAA sanctions in the 1970s and 1980s.

Edwards was such a fan of Tiger football that he only missed one game of the 242 played during his presidency, and it was his appearance at a pep rally with his nose painted orange that led to the now traditional painting of tiger paws on faces for gameday. In Edwards' view, "Clemson's athletic prominence deserved applause rather than apologies. Even in times of trouble with athletics, he maintained that both he and Clemson kept athletics and academics in proper balance." ("Tradition", page 207.)

After decades of misery in basketball (only three winning records between 1953 and 1970), the administration felt it was time for a coaching change, and hired Tates Locke, formerly of the United States Military Academy at West Point, and Miami University of Ohio. In 1973-1974, Locke's Tigers produced the first winning record in seven years, followed the next season by a 17-11 outcome, only the third time in Clemson history that the roundball team had achieved seventeen wins. Unfortunately, this rise in fortunes was also accompanied by allegations that were made public in July 1974, that several high school stars had been offered illegal inducements to sign athletic grant-in-aid with Clemson. An Atlantic Coast Conference and an NCAA investigation ensued, and despite Locke's denials and attempts by the administration to blame jealous ACC opponents and an irresponsible press for the troubles, the truth came out, and on March 20, 1975, Locke submitted his resignation to Clemson athletic director H.C. "Bill" McLellan. In October 1975, the Tigers were placed on three-years probation for a variety of offenses, the most egregious of which was an offer by Locke to purchase a house for the mother of eventual NBA star Moses Malone, as well as an offer to pay her utility bills for the duration of his enrollment. As it turned out, Malone, an outstanding high school athlete in Petersburg, Virginia, by-passed college ball entirely and went straight to the pro game. ("Tradition", page 209.) After the scandal had become public, a call for a house-cleaning ended at one - Locke, while Bill McLellan endured to help oversee the next sports mess, trouble with football. Locke, it should be noted, eventually published his own account of the scandal, titled "Caught in the Net", in which he admitted that "I didn't cheat because the Joneses did or because it made me a big man. I did it because I was tired of losing." ("Tradition", page 210.)

The saga of Clemson's rise and fall in football fortunes is well-reported and widely known. Suffice it to say here that Coach Charlie Pell brought unforeseen success in the 1977-1979 era, with the first bowl appearances by the Tigers since 1959, but also NCAA scrutiny over recruiting violations that continued into the leadership of Danny Ford. This culminated with the Clemson football program being placed on two-years' NCAA and three-years' ACC probation in 1981, just after the first-ever Tiger gridiron national championship was secured. How much Edwards' lack of control in the interest of the win contributed to these two scandals can be debated, but there is no getting around the fact that both occurred on his watch.

During the 1976-1977 academic year, Edwards announced that he was looking forward to retirement in three years, when he turned sixty-five. "He was soon showered with awards, plaques, and other honors celebrating his service to Clemson." ("Tradition", page 212.) R.C. Edwards Junior High School in Central had already been named for him in 1971. "Although many of the major developments and events at Clemson during the Edwards years would have occurred, if in altered form, no matter who had occupied the presidency, Edwards' personality and philosophy significantly influenced their course. To the casual observer he appeared to be a caricature often found in popular images of the South. In addition to his characteristic drawl, his handshakes were frequently accompanied by a zestful slap on the back. In his relations with others, he eschewed bureacracy and formal procedure, preferring instead to settle his differences with people face-to-face." ("Tradition", page 210.)

On the other hand, his personality was not that of the stereotypical Southerner, possessing boundless energy, and although trained in the textile business' hard, impersonal profit and loss world, "Edwards nevertheless displayed emotions that seemed incongruous with the mentality of a business manager, particularly when asked what Clemson meant to him." ("Tradition", page 210.) Edwards exhibited "a fearlessness of the future that one would not expect of a person who held such traditional and conservative values," part of which may have come from his unusually close and harmonious relations with the Board of Trustees. ("Tradition", page 211.) He also developed a positive relationship with leaders of state government. Historian and author Wright Bryan observed that "[t]he presidential automobile was on the road between Clemson and Columbia as much as it was on the campus itself." (Bryan, Wright, "Clemson: An Informal History of the University 1889-1979", The R.L. Bryan Company, Columbia, South Carolina, 1979, ISBN 0-934870-01-2, page 143.) Bryan also notes that Edwards "led in fund raising to rebuild his church after a fire and in statewide drives for health organizations."

"But no honor could have pleased him more than the establishment by the Board of Trustees and the Clemson University Foundation of the Robert Cook Edwards Endowment for Excellence in Science and Technology, and the raising of $1,654,705 for this purpose." (Bryan, page 144.)

During Edwards' tenure, "Clemson had become a university with a vastly larger and more diversified student body, faculty, and curriculum. Edwards, despite charges by his critics that he possessed neither a scholarly background nor image and that he placed too much emphasis on athletics, had made a vital imprint on both Clemson's human and physical resources. By 1979 the school had come of age." ("Tradition", page 212.)

Robert Cook Edwards, 94, president of Clemson University for 21 years, died December 4, 2008, at Cottingham House, a Seneca residence operated by Hospice of the Foothills.

Woodland Cemetery

From ClemsonWiki
Revision as of 01:12, 3 January 2012 by (talk)
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The Woodland Cemetery, or Cemetery Hill as it is more commonly known, is located on the wooded knoll adjacent to the South Stands of Clemson Memorial Stadium.

The Calhoun Family Plot

Although the official title of "The Woodland Cemetery" was conferred upon it in 1924 by the Clemson Board of Trustees, the site had been used as a cemetery for much longer. In 1825, John C. Calhoun purchased the Fort Hill plantation and the surrounding property. Twelve years later, the infant grandson of John C. Calhoun, John Caldwell, became the first member of the Calhoun family to be buried on the plot of land that would become known as Cemetery Hill. In the years that followed, 16 more members of the Calhoun family were buried on the Calhoun Family Plot.

The Woodland Cemetery

Upon the suggestion of President Walter Merritt Riggs to create a faculty cemetery for those "who may desire to avail themselves of the privilege", the Clemson Board of Trustees voted in July of 1924 for the creation of "The Woodland Cemetery". This was the result of a two year study conducted by a committee appointed by Riggs. In the end, the study determined the only proper place to honor such faculty members who would be buried here was upon Cemetery Hill adjacent to the Calhoun Family Plot.

The Woodland Cemetery Today

After being appointed President of Clemson University, James Frazier Barker made the following observation about the Woodland Cemetery:

"As President of Clemson University, I feel I have been given a sacred trust--the obligation to lead our community into the future while preserving and honoring our past. There is no place in which this sacred trust is more tangible than Woodland Cemetery, more commonly known as Cemetery Hill."

To this end, President Barker appointed the Woodland Cemetery Stewardship Committee in December 2000 and charged it to "protect and enhance the integrity, character and traditions of Cemetery Hill."

For those who wish for additional information on the Woodland Cemetery Stewardship Committee, refer to the Summer 2004 Clemson World article found at:

The Cemetery Chronicles

In an effort to educate Clemson alumni as well as the general public on the importance of Cemetery Hill and its inhabitants, the Woodland Cemetery Stewardship Committee and Clemson World launched the Cemetery Chronicles. In each quarterly edition of the Clemson World since Summer 2001, an article on either an inhabitant of the Cemetery or an important feature of the Cemetery has been featured.

Those who wish to view past articles featured in the Cemetery Chronicles may view them here: http://www.clemson.edu/clemsonworld/chronicles/.

Notable Inhabitants of the Woodland Cemetery

Since 1924, many men and women who have made oustanding contributions to Clemson have been buried on this sacred ground. The following list includes some of the notable names that can be found upon Cemetery Hill:

  • Walter Merritt Riggs, 5th President of Clemson College
  • Enoch Walter Sikes, 6th President of Clemson College
  • Joseph Sherman, Former Director of Alumni and Public Relations
  • David Wistar (D.W.) Daniel, Former Professor of English and Dean of the School of the Arts and Sciences at Clemson College
  • Robert Franklin Poole, 7th President of Clemson College
  • Frank James Howard, Former Clemson football, coaching legend.

Strategic Planning Document -
Transportation R&D

This summary of Federal transportation research and development priorities has been prepared for the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC) by the NSTC Committee on Transportation R&D and the Office of Science and Technology Policy. The plan reflects current progress in the ongoing effort to assess Federal transportation research and to develop long-term R&D programs integrated across agencies in specific transportation-related areas of common interest. The plan was compiled from subcommittee reports which contain extensive additional detail concerning agency programs, goals, issues and resources. Efforts of the Committee in 1994 focused on identification of perceived R&D gaps and opportunities. The following objectives were developed for coordinated public and private R&D:

  • Physical Infrastructure for Transportation: Develop materials, design methods, non-destructive testing techniques, and other technologies for low- cost, long-lasting highways, bridges, airports, and other structures. Develop low-cost methods for non-destructive testing and repair of existing structures.

  • Information Infrastructure for Transportation: Apply the innovations available from the national information infrastructure to develop an Intelligent Transportation System that will ensure the safe and efficient intermodal operation of the Nation's vehicles and physical infrastructure.

  • Next-Generation Transportation Vehicles:

    Aeronautics: Maintain world leadership in aircraft, engines, avionics, and air transportation system equipment for a safe, sustainable, global aviation system.

    Space Launch: Ensure reliable and affordable access to space through a stronger US space launch capability which meets the needs of the civilian, national security, and commercial sectors.

    Personal (Light-Duty) Motor Vehicles: Renewed leadership in automotive technologies through the development of a new generation of energy efficient, low emission vehicles that will preserve American jobs and improve American competitiveness.

    Medium and Heavy Duty Motor Vehicles (Trucks and Buses): Ensure US leadership in truck and bus technology by investing in improved materials, components, and design concepts and other technologies required for improved accessibility, energy efficiency and environmental characteristics.

    Rail Vehicles (Intercity and Transit): Position the US as a world technology leader and primary exporter of rail-related equipment and services by facilitating technological innovation in rail vehicle design and construction and by introducing advanced materials, and communications and control technologies which will result in improved performance and reduced costs.

    Ships and Shipbuilding: Restore the competitiveness of the US in ship building, ship repair, ship design, and ship production in order to ensure a strong and competitive US shipbuilding industry unsurpassed in building the finest and most complex vessels in the world.

  • Transportation System Design, Planning, Management and Operations

    Transportation System Assessment Tools and Knowledge: Develop information required for government and industry managers to make effective decisions about the safe operation of existing transportation systems as well as new investments.

    Human Performance in the Transportation System: Define appropriate roles for the human-in-the-loop through human-centered automation and improve the safety and competitiveness of American products through the integration of human performance principles and procedures and the application of new information dissemination, communication, and display technologies to transportation.

These objectives provide the foundation for generation in 1995 of detailed and comprehensive description of Federal transportation R&D goals, plans, measures, budgets, and priorities, including active coordination with relevant other NSTC Committees.

The purpose of this report is to highlight ongoing Federal research efforts in this science and technology (S&T) field and to identify new and promising areas where there might be gaps in Federal support. The report is intended for internal planning purposes within the Federal agencies and as a mechanism to convey to the S&T community the types of research and research priorities being sponsored and considered by the Federal agencies. The Administration is committed to a broad range of high priority investments (including science and technology), as well as to deficit reduction, and to a smaller, more efficient Federal government. These commitments have created a very challenging budget environment--requiring difficult decisions and a well thought-out strategy to ensure the best return for the nation's taxpayer. As part of this strategy, this document does not represent the final determinant in an overall Administration budget decision making process. The research programs presented in this report will have to compete for resources against many other high priority federal programs. If these programs compete successfully, they will be reflected in future Administration budgets.

A clock spring is used to connect the steering wheel to other electrical devices such as the airbag safety system, radio volume and station selections, horn and cruise controls. A clock spring can become faulty when wires become worn and break causing a short or open circuit.
