This book was released on 2024-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The professional life of Hattie Plum Williams (1878-1963) epitomized the first generation of professional women sociologists on the Great Plains. At the University of Nebraska, she became the first woman in the world known to hold a regular appointment as chair of a coeducational, doctoral department of sociology (1923-1928). Often characterized as a social worker, her professional allegiance remained to sociology. Williams' unsung labors in the early 1930s on behalf of the National Commission on Law Observance and Enforcement (NCLOE) resulted in two detailed, typewritten accounts of crime and criminal justice in Omaha and Lincoln, Nebraska. Her data collection, along with that of many researchers in other cities, provided an empirical foundation for the repeal of prohibition. Unlike other reports, however, Williams' studies of Lincoln and Omaha were the only cost of crime investigations undertaken, directed, and completed essentially singlehandedly by a woman researcher. The reports are classic examples of her selfless dedication to scholarship, her state, and her university. This edition preserves Williams' vulnerable typescripts and, together with an illuminating introduction by Michael R. Hill, presents her work for the NCLOE in the format of a contextual casebook providing instructive appendices by and about Williams as well as related materials issued by the NCLOE.

Download or read book My Omaha Obsession written by Miss Cassette and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2020-11 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My Omaha Obsession takes the reader on an idiosyncratic tour through some of Omaha’s neighborhoods, buildings, architecture, and people, celebrating the city’s unusual history. Rather than covering the city’s best-known sites, Miss Cassette is irresistibly drawn to strange little buildings and glorious large homes that don’t exist anymore as well as to stories of Harkert’s Holsum Hamburgers and the Twenties Club. Piecing together the records of buildings and homes and everything interesting that came after, Miss Cassette shares her observations of the property and its significance to Omaha. She scrutinizes land deeds, insurance maps, tax records, and old newspaper articles to uncover a property’s singular story. Through conversations with fellow detectives and history enthusiasts, she guides readers along her path of hunches, personal interests, mishaps, and more. As a longtime resident of Omaha, Miss Cassette is informed by memories of her youth combined with an enduring curiosity about the city’s offbeat relics and remains. Part memoir and part research guide with a healthy dose of colorful wandering, My Omaha Obsession celebrates the historic built environment and searches for the people who shaped early Omaha.
