    Katolog Regional Oceania
    The Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands is part of Micronesia and includes the islands of Saipan, Rota and Tinian. The Northern Marianas have a unique relationship with the United States, that recognizes U.S. sovereignty but partly limits the applicability of federal laws.

    H istory of the Bahá'í Faith in the Mariana Islands
    First Mention
    T he first mention of the Bahá'í Faith in the Mariana Islands occured in 1936, when a Bahá'í from Hawaii, Mrs. Mary Sweyze, the wife of scientist Dr. Otto Herman Sweyze, joined her husband on a survey to study insects on Guam. Dr. and Mrs. Sweyze arrived on Guam on 27 April, 1936 and remained until 30 November, a period of seven months. It was during this time that Mrs. Sweyze introduced the Bahá'í Faith to members of the Manibusan family in Sinajana. This is the first mention of the name of Baha'u'llah in the Marianas of which we are aware.
    B etter known is the time spent on Tinian and Saipan towards the end of the Second World War, around 1945, by Mr. Paul Pettitt, a member of the United States Armed Forces. Mr. Pettitt has written an account for our records of the "first teaching conference" held on Saipan by himself and two other young Bahá'í servicemen.
    First Settlers
    I n April and May of 1954, the first Bahá'í settlers, Robert Powers, Jr. and Cynthia R. Olson, arrived on Guam, seperately. Cynthia was soon joined by her husband Edgar, better known as Olie. Soon afterwards, in July, Mrs. Mildred Mottahedeh, a well known Bahá'í of international stature, travelled through Guam as the first Bahá'í "travelling teacher." This was soon followed by the first Bahá'í Holy Day observance, and weekly advertisements of the Faith's activities in the "Guam Daily News."
    I n November of that same year the first presentation of Bahá'í books was made to island libraries. The Bahá'í Fund was established and contributions were soon being sent to the Bahà'í International Fund, and to a special fund to assist the persecuted Bahá'ís in Iran. Before a year had elapsed, in March l955, the first declaration of belief in Baha'u'llah by a local resident was made by a U.S. civil service worker, Mr. Charles Mackey, followed by the first mention of the Bahá'i Faith on radio, KUAM, made by Cynthia Olsen as part of the "Calendars of the World" program.

    he FSM has a rich history dating back several thousand years. The islands were originally settled by ancient people sailing east from Asia and north from Polynesia . Later discovers and settlers included the Spanish, Germans, and Japanese and evidence of their former presence is found throughout the islands. Following the trusteeship under U.S. administration after W.W. II, the FSM is now independent and self-governing. Most linguistic and archaeological evidence indicates that the islands were first discovered and settled between two and three thousand years ago . The first settlers are often described as Austronesian speakers possessing horticultural skills and highly sophisticated maritime knowledge . These first settlers are thought to have migrated eastward from Southeast Asia to Yap. From there, some migrated south to Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, and New Caledonia, and later to Kiribati and the Marshall Islands. The oral histories of the Micronesian people indicate close affiliations and interactions in the past among the members of the island societies comprising the present-day FSM. The Lelu ruins in Kosrae (1400 AD) and the Nan Madol ruins of Pohnpei (1000 AD) are impressive reminders of the accomplishments of these early peoples.

    71. Four Universities Receive NEH Grants To Develop Regional Humanities Centers

    http://www.neh.gov/news/archive/20000724.html
    FOUR UNIVERSITIES RECEIVE NEH GRANTS TO DEVELOP REGIONAL HUMANITIES CENTERS
    Another step toward nationwide network of 10 centers for study of regional culture WASHINGTON, D.C., July 24, 2000The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) today announced $50,000 awards to four universities to develop major centers for regional history and culture. The Ohio University in Athens; the University of California, Davis; Northern Illinois University in DeKalb; and the University of Wisconsin, Madison join 16 other universities selected last December to receive planning grants in the first phase of NEH's Regional Humanities Centers initiative. The initiative is designed to create a nationwide network of 10 major regional centers devoted to research, cultural preservation, public programming and lifelong learning about the history, people, traditions and landscapes that characterize America's regions. The 10 regions identified for the NEH initiative are Pacific, Southwest, Rocky Mountains, Plains, Upper Mississippi Valley, Central, Deep South, South Atlantic, Mid-Atlantic, New England. The planning awards made to the 20 universities came from a fund raised primarily through private donations. Grants were awarded on the basis of each institution's existing resources, capacity for original research and documentation of regional heritage, plans for educational outreach to schools, communities, and cultural tourists, and commitment to creating regionwide partnerships. "Regional centers are part of NEH's strategy for bringing the humanities to all Americans," said NEH Deputy Director John Roberts. "Not only will the centers be closer to us geographically. They will also appeal to our 'sense of place'-a sense that we all have, though we don't often think about it-just as we all have other senses like seeing, hearing and so forth. The places where we grew up, which we have chosen to call home, or to which we travel for rest and relaxation all mean something to us. The people, landscape, customs and stories have touched us one way or another and help to make us who we are."
