Capital Area Historic District

P hoto by Elizabeth Alley, courtesy of Raleigh Historic Districts Commission The Raleigh City Council has supported historic preservation activities in the city through an appointed citizen commission since 1961, five years before the passage of the National Historic Preservation Act. At that time the council formed the Historic Sites Commissionthe first such body in the stateand allowed it limited powers to further preservation objectives within the municipal limits. The Commission incorporated in 1962 and gained its 501(c)(3) tax exempt status in 1965. Its first efforts were directed toward public education to raise awareness among citizens about the values of the community's historic places and the threats they faced. By 1967, the Historic Sites Commission had gained enough experience to be instrumental in obtaining local legislation from the North Carolina General Assembly that allowed it broader powers. Among these powers was the right "to hold, manage, preserve, restore, improve and operate [historic properties]." This legislation was central to the success of the Commission's first major preservation initiative: securing the future of the threatened Mordecai House , which was acquired by the city in June of that year and turned over to the Commission to develop and supervise as a historic park. Again, the Historic Sites Commission had accomplished a pioneering preservation feat in North Carolina: the acquisition and restoration of a historic property by a municipality for the express purpose of preventing its demolition had never before occurred in North Carolina.

Preface
Charter Schools in Perspective
The charter school phenomenon that seemed radical only a few years ago is now an accepted part of public education in many parts of the country. From a slow start in a few states, the charter movement has grown rapidly: by fall 1997 approximately 700 charters were operating in 29 states and the District of Columbiaand their numbers are likely to grow rapidly over the next few years. Charter schools are public schools, but what sets them apart is their chartera contract with a state or local agency that provides them with public funds for a specified time period. The charter itself states the terms under which the school can be held accountable for improving student performance and achieving goals set out in the charter. This contract frees charter developers from a number of regulations that otherwise apply to public schools. The freedoms accorded to charter schools have raised an array of hopes and fears about the consequences of introducing charter schools into the public system. Some people hope that charter schools developed by local educators, parents, community members, school boards, and other sponsors might provide both new models of schooling and competitive pressures on public schools that will improve the current system. Others fear that charter schools might, at best, be little more than escape valves that relieve pressure for genuine reform and, at worst, add to centrifugal forces that threaten to pull public education apart.

INTRODUCTION
HISTORY
The extensive holdings of audio-visual materials by and about African Americans date from the 1970s, with the development of the Media Resources Center in the Undergraduate Library , and the 1980s, with the founding of the Southern Folklife Collection in Wilson Library . The creation of the Electronic Information Service in Davis Library, also in the 1980s, enabled librarians to begin collecting electronic materials related to African American studies. During the 1990s grant funds for the cooperative purchase of Southern Americana allowed librarians at UNC-Chapel Hill, Duke, and North Carolina State University to further expand their African Americana collections.

Brown v. Board
50 Years Later By Michael J. Klarman As the nation marks the fiftieth anniversary of the Supreme Court’s ruling in Brown v. Board of Education , it is worth pondering why the justices found the case so difficult and what the decision’s implications were for the Civil Rights Movement. Most people today would be surprised to learn that Brown was a hard decision for the justices. If statemandated segregation in public schools was not unconstitutional, what was? That the ruling in Brown was unanimous, moreover, suggests that the justices found the case to be easy. Appearances can be deceptive. In a memorandum written the day that Brown was decidedMay 17, 1954Justice William O. Douglas observed that had the case been decided immediately after it was first argued in December 1952, “the vote would have been five to four in favor of the constitutionality of segregation in the public schools.” Justice Felix Frankfurter wrote that a vote taken after the initial argument would have invalidated segregation by only five to four, with the majority writing several opinions. Brown was hard for many of the justices because it posed a conflict between their legal views and their personal values. The sources of constitutional interpretation to which they ordinarily looked for guidancetext, original understanding, precedentseemed to indicate that school segregation was permissible. By contrast, the personal values of most of the justices condemned segregation, which Justice Black called “Hitler’s creed.” Their quandary was how to reconcile their legal and their moral views.

Academic Assistance Center
The Academic Assistance Center, located in 102 Cahners Hall on the Fenway, provides tutoring in most freshman subjects at no charge to Northeastern students. Graduate students and upperclass undergraduates provide individual and small group tutorials as well as review sessions. In addition, the Reading Lab offers diagnostic testing and tutoring in reading, vocabulary and related learning skills. Referrals to other University services are made when necessary. Students should come to the Center to request assistance. Telephone 373-2328; TTY 373-8517.
Division of Academic Computing

The Division of Academic Computing (DAC) facilitates the use of computers by Northeastern students and members of the faculty. Some years ago that meant maintaining one good-sized computer, used primarily by those doing advanced work in engineering, mathematics, or the physical or biological sciences. More recently, computing has found productive use in nearly every field of study pursued at the University. At the same time, computing activities have increasingly migrated to personal computers, altering the nature of the need for computing services. Recognizing the transition to desktop computing, the University is committed to developing a state-of-the-art university-wide data communication network, NUnet. NUnet will provide the infrastructure to link students and faculty with the resources and information they need to conduct their work. It will also provide an entirely new avenue for enhanced communication both within and outside the University.

... Return Home God, Government and the Good Samaritan : The Promise and the Peril of the President's Faith-Based Agenda Introduction
President George W. Bush's creation of a White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives has stirred an unprecedented national conversation about the role of faith in public life. The President clearly intends to elevate the importance of religion in alleviating social ills. His strategy includes tax policies to boost donations to religious charities, reductions in regulations that hinder their work, and federal funding to faith-based groups previously excluded from government support. It is an agenda aimed at reversing decades of hostility to social programs rooted in religious belief. Most of the debate so far has focused on church-state questions raised by the President's plan. Liberals worry about religious influence in government, while some conservatives fear exactly the opposite. Both sides, however, are missing the real import of Bush's approach to religion and the public square. Not since Dwight D. Eisenhower has a president used the bully pulpit as aggressively to tout the importance of faith to democratic government. "Without God, there could be no American form of government," Eisenhower bluntly put it, "nor an American way of life." Eisenhower viewed faith as a bulwark against Communism abroad and corruption and materialism at home. It was at his urging that the words "under God" were added to the Pledge of Allegiance.

California One Hundred and Fifty Years Ago April 1852 - "Edward F. Beale was appointed Superintendent of Indian Affairs for California in April 1852. … Beale requested $500,000 for military reservations where both soldiers and Indians would reside. Congress appropriated $250,000 for five reservations, not to exceed 25,000 acres each, to be located on public lands, with good land, wood, and water." A History of American Indians in California April 1852 - "When a (federal) bill concerning funding for California's Indian problems was finally approved on 30 April 1852, it only contained money to establish a permanent Indian Agent for California and money to pacify the Indians until the treaties were passed by Congress..... These treaties drew heavy opposition from the state government in California. A state commission was assembled in 1852 to examine the treaties, and in its report to the state legislature, it recommended that Congress be notified of the 'great evils that would inevitably result to the people of California' if the treaties were ratified.

California One Hundred and Fifty Years Ago August 1853 - "Ulysses S. Grant was promoted to full captain on August 9, 1853. He was to report to Fort Humboldt, California. Military duties there included the protection of settlers from hostile Indians and holding prisoners. Off duty, he visited with friends, went to Eureka to play pool or cards, or wrote to his family. He was extremely lonely. The cost of living was too high to bring his family to the West Coast. His salary was inadequate. He was not well; he suffered from migraine headaches. " www.lib.niu.edu/ipo/ihy930224.html August 1853 - "I very soon started to join my new command. There was no way of reaching Humboldt at that time except to take passage on a San Francisco sailing vessel going after lumber. Red wood, a species of cedar, which on the Pacific coast takes the place filled by white pine in the East, then abounded on the banks of Humboldt Bay. There were extensive saw-mills engaged in preparing this lumber for the San Francisco market, and sailing vessels, used in getting it to market, furnished the only means of communication between Humboldt and the balance of the world.... Prices for all kinds of supplies were so high that at it would have been impossible for officers of the army to exist upon their pay. A cook could not be hired for the pay of a captain." www.sfmuseum.org/hist9/usgrant.html
