Title A name given to the resource World War I at Southwestern University Description An account of the resource In 1918, during World War I, the United States War Department created the Student Army Training Corps (SATC) program to help fill positions in the military with trained men. Implemented at hundreds of universities across the nation, the SATC combined both practical and lecture-based military instruction with the general college curriculum. The intended goal was to create a viable population of educated and trained young men who would then join the U.S. military and fight in the war. Southwestern University was one of the colleges with an SATC chapter, which was only active during the fall semester of 1918; Germany’s formal surrender in November rendered its purpose moot. However, as the World War I collection shows, the SATC was a highly valued part of campus life during its existence. The collection of World War I materials from Special Collections prominently features documentation related to the SATC, which is highlighted here on our site. This collection gives us a clear idea of the amount of effort it took to establish, organize, and run this federal military recruitment program. Among these items are correspondence between individuals and institutions, grade reports, photographs of SATC students, curriculum outlines, and pamphlets. Although military instruction was the impetus for the creation of the program, academics were meant to be the central component of the SATC, as shown by the many education-related pamphlets, notices, and letters. The amount of highly detailed correspondence between various agencies, including Southwestern University, the University of Texas at Austin, the U.S. Naval Reserve, and the War Department, is tangible evidence of the value placed on this program by its founding institutions.

Title A name given to the resource Johnson Family Papers Description An account of the resource The Johnson family, originally from Missouri, came to Texas in 1844, moving several times before finally settling in Hays County. Thomas Johnson and his wife, Catherine Johnson, had six children. Thomas Johnson, a schoolmaster, established the Johnson Institute in 1852, thirty miles north of San Marcos. The Johnson Institute was a private secondary school with a coeducational student body. Three of the Johnson children would later teach there. A family member of particular interest is the daughter, Elizabeth (Lizzie) Ellen Johnson, born on May 9, 1840 in Cole County, Missouri. The Johnson Family Collection, dating from the years 1859-1887, was donated to Southwestern University by John E. Shelton, grandson of Emma Johnson, sister of Lizzie Johnson. It consists of letters, personal notes, announcements, newspaper clippings, magazines, books, and personal objects from the entire Johnson family. Highlighted here is Lizzie Johnson’s incoming correspondence, which includes invitations to parties, letters from close friends, and marriage proposals. This selection of items gives us an insightful look into how relationships functioned among the white middle class youth in Texas during the latter half of the 19th century.

Tower Senate Collection Description An account of the resource John Goodwin Tower (1925-1991) was a Republican politician who represented Texas in the Senate from 1960 until 1985. Born in Houston, Texas, he received his bachelor of arts in political science from Southwestern University in 1948 after serving in the Navy during World War II. In 1960, he was elected as the first Republican senator in Texas since 1870, heralding the return to a two-party system in the state. Throughout his 24 year career, Senator Tower was highly involved with numerous domestic and foreign policy decisions, strongly focusing on economic growth. He maintained close ties with his alma mater, Southwestern University, serving on its Board of Trustees from 1968 through 1991. After retiring from Senate in 1985, President Ronald Reagan appointed Tower as the Chief U.S. Negotiator at the Strategic Arms Reduction Talks in Geneva with the Soviet Union. Spanning a fascinating and often troubled time in our nation’s history, Senator Tower’s papers mirror the period and provide insight into the events of the 1960s through the 1980s. In 1987, Tower decided to give some of his papers to Southwestern University; after his death in 1991, his family donated the remainder of his papers. The collection, which is now approximately 800 linear feet, consists primarily of materials from Washington, D.C. that Senator Tower accumulated during his 24 years in the Senate, although there are some files from his state offices in Texas that pre-date and post-date his Senate career. Highlighted on our site are his political speeches, which cover topics ranging from environmental conservation and national health insurance to the rights of Mexican-Americans. Drafts and revisions of some of these speeches offer a unique insight into the political speechwriting process.

Title A name given to the resource Speech about National Health Insurance Description An account of the resource In this presidential campaign speech, Tower outlines his views on government-issued national health coverage — Tower is strongly opposed. Tower focuses on the need for individuals to choose their own care providers, expresses fears over the the monetary cost of national health coverage and the potential demise of pluralistic health care, and defends the existing American health care system. Tower argues that a better solution would be reached by addressing individual problems with American health care, for example by offering financial incentives to attract doctors to underserved communities, and by providing government aid for specific costly treatments. Tower introduces his "Medicredit" plan, which would offer tax incentives to help Americans purchase their own insurance, and which would replace Medicaid.

Title A name given to the resource Claude Carr Cody's Battle Creek Sanitarium Collection Subject The topic of the resource Battle Creek Sanitarium, John Harvey Kellogg, US Progressive Era, Health and Medicine in 19th Century US, Patient Records Description An account of the resource Claud Carr Cody was born in Georgia and got his AB and MA degrees from Emory in 1875 and 1878. He came to Southwestern University in 1879 as Professor of Mathematics and stayed here until his retirement in 1915. During his time at Southwestern, he served different administrative positions, including two times as President. His most important contribution to Southwestern was, perhaps, his struggle in 1910-11 to keep the university in Georgetown when a proposal came to move it to Dallas. Southwestern University Special Collections guards many of his documents related to his personal, academic, and university life. This digital collection highlights documents in relation to his visit to Battle Creek Sanitarium, a very famous health resort in Michigan run by the controversial Dr. John Harvey Kellogg. The Sanitarium evolved from a health center sponsored by the Seventh-Day Adventists in the early nineteenth century. By the early 1910s, the Sanitarium had become health resort that advocated, almost religiously, a health regime based on a healthy diet, exercise, sexual abstinence, good sleep, and traditional and novel therapies such as hydrotherapy, phototherapy, thermotherapy, electrotherapy, and exposure to fresh air. Documents from Cody’s visit to the Sanitarium include Harvey Kellogg’s booklet “The Simple Life in a Nutshell”, an appointment card, a registration card, several bills, an examination of urine, a prescribed diet menu, and 8 checks. Students in the Popularizing Class, Spring 2016, generated the descriptions of the items in this collection.
