20492 Sino-American
Relations and the Transcontinental Railroad
This paper examines the role that Chinese immigrant labor played
in the construction of the transcontinental railroad in the
wake of the Civil War in the United States. The paper considers
the socio-cultural forces that brought Chinese en masse to California,
the conditions suffered by Chinese workers on the construction,
and the resulting discrimination that the Chinese faced because
of their apparent inability to be assimilated into mainstream
white culture in the United States.

20602 How did
the great depression affect the maturation and development of
the US Coast Guard
When the Coast Guard emerged from World War I, it struggled
for an identity. When it entered the Great Depression, it struggled
for funding. It was forced to stretch its men and resources
over an ever-widening range of duties as more and more departments
came under its control (such as the Light House service). It
had a very strong role in enforcement during Prohibition, and
entered the 1930’s in a very strong law enforcement position.
However, as Commandant Hamlet would find out, even the best
of enforcement and usefulness does not protect an agency from
budget tightening . Because of the tightening of funds, the
Coast Guard was forced to dock many of its ships, change its
functions, all the while finding an expanding role in the protection
and management of the United States’ coastline and waterways.
It is the purpose of this paper to examine the specific effects
upon the Coast Guard that the Great Depression had.

20620 The Unifying
Effect of the French and Indian Wars
This paper briefly examines the role that expansion played in
uniting the European colonists of the New World. Even though
the period between 1660 and 1763 was framed by the brutal and
bloody French and Indian Wars, this period also marks the beginning
of a colonial identity that is separate from that of the home
country. The wars themselves are representative of that identity
development as a product of European expansion.

20661 A Letter
to Governor Rick Perry
As a citizen of the great state of Texas, I turn to you with
what I perceive as a dangerous situation. You have established
several priorities for our state, such as strengthening educational
opportunities, increasing access to quality healthcare, improving
transportation, innovating new water sources, and improving
our border region, however what about the protecting the safety
of the citizens due to the carelessness of businesses such as
Pantex? (“Priorities”)

20666 Revision
to the Texas Constitution
The Texas Constitution is a lengthy document, some 90,000 words
and approximately 400 amendments, and it continues to grow,
as more amendments are made to it. To some, the Constitution
is too democratic, and in fact antiquated. When it was first
written, in 1875, Texans “acquired perhaps the most strictly
controlled governmental structure in the United States, which
it retains to this day.” (Murchison) But should it be revised?
And if so, how?

20677 Massachusetts
and the Constitution
This paper conssiders what sort of national constitution the
people of Massachusetts might support in 1789, considering how
it might differ from the Constitution actually written and how
it might be the same, with the belief that in general the people
of Massachusetts would develop a constitution with many of the
same principles, based on the idea of the consent of the governed
and on direct democracy as a ruling principle.
This paper examines the role the media plays in shaping the
perceptions of the American public in relation to the Seattle
protests of globalism and the World Trade Organization. The
paper examines the proposed goals and aims of globalism and
counters that with the concerns and rhetoric of the protestors.
Finally the media representation of the protests will be examined
in order to shed light on the manner in which our perceptions
of the protests have been influenced.
