The university "supports free speech through open dialogue that is respectful and constructive," the officials said. Other buildings on the campus in Arcata are at risk of being occupied, and protesters “have shown a willingness” to lock themselves in facilities and steal equipment, the officials said. House Speaker Mike Johnson called Wednesday for the resignation of the university’s president if she can't "bring order to this chaos." The university closed its campus Wednesday evening as LAPD began arresting demonstrators. At one point during the demonstrations, tensions escalated as protesters refused to relocate and remove their tents and other prohibited items, a university official said. "The university is a private campus and the group had been violating some of their orders. It was a trespass at that point and we assisted with the arrests," Los Angeles Police Captain Kelly Muniz said during a briefing.

His backers come from both the left and the right and disagree widely on many issues.

Deeply reported insights into legislation, politics and policy from Sacramento, Washington and beyond. Trump’s campaign isn’t premised on winning a majority, something a Republican has managed only once in the past eight presidential elections, (George W. Bush in 2004). Democrats have also zeroed in on Kennedy’s equivocal statements on abortion, including one in August in which he said he would sign a national ban on abortions after 15 weeks. Anita Chabria and David Lauter bring insights into legislation, politics and policy from California and beyond. There were nearly 3,000 people at Saturday night’s event, including celebrities like Jost’s wife, Scarlett Johansson, Jon Hamm and Chris Pine. A photographer was among those arrested during clashes between protesters and law enforcement on the University of Texas at Austin campus on Wednesday.
Columbia University Board of Trustees voices support for embattled president
Historically, all presidential papers were considered the personal property of the president. Some took them at the end of their terms, others destroyed them, and many papers were scattered.[16] Though many pre-Hoover collections now reside in the Manuscript Division of the Library of Congress,[17] others are split among other libraries, historical societies, and private collections. The Gift of History is an award-winning, multi-agency, countywide history program that creates civic pride, builds 21st-century skills, and promotes community engagement among third-grade students. Started in 2007 by the Children’s Education Foundation of Orange County, the program works with public and private partnerships to provide local history books, in-person history events, and curriculum guides for teachers across Orange County.
These facilities are actually museums, archives and event spaces filled with documents, photographs, videos and artifacts from presidents past. The National Archives and Records Administration oversees 15 of these libraries, each one designed to be immersive and illuminating, giving the public a fuller look at the lives of presidents before and after the White House. Although recognized as having historical significance, before the mid-20th century presidential papers and effects were generally understood to be the private property of the president. Franklin D. Roosevelt (32nd president, 1933–1945) proposed to leave his papers to the public in a building donated by him on his Hyde Park, New York, estate. Since then, a series of laws established the public keeping of documents and the presidential library system. While not sanctioned and maintained by NARA, libraries have also been organized for several presidents who preceded Hoover and the official start of the Presidential Library Office.
Nearly 400 Orange County third graders experienced an interactive history lesson at the Nixon Library on April 25 as participants in Orange County’s Gift of History program. The students started the morning with a pep rally-style local history lesson in the Nixon Library’s replica of the White House East Room and ended with a tour of the birthplace of President Richard Nixon. All U.S. citizens ages 18 and older, and foreign nationals of all ages (including children), must present a valid, government-issued photo ID upon arrival for their tour. The first presidential library is the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum, dedicated on June 30, 1941. The George W. Bush Presidential Center became the thirteenth on May 1, 2013. Throughout March, the Presidential Libraries will offer various programs, including events, exhibits, lectures, and book talks featuring the life and work of our First Ladies and other notable women.
John Adams, the first president to live in the White House, used this room as a laundry room; at that time, it was said to have been filled with "Tubs, Buckets, and a variety of Lumber"; at the time, lumber meant "miscellaneous useless articles that are stored away". During Millard Fillmore's presidency (1850–1853), Congressional funding was requested to establish a White House library. The library was established during the Fillmore presidency, spearheaded by the first lady, Abigail Fillmore. This library was originally in the Yellow Oval Room and was maintained there until 1929, when the Hoover administration moved it to its current location.
The Presidential Library system is composed of fifteen Presidential Libraries. Presidential Libraries are archives and museums, bringing together the documents and artifacts of a President and his administration and presenting them to the public for study and discussion without regard for political considerations or affiliations. Busy with the internal and external affairs of a growing nation, earlier presidents failed to set aside a room in the White House exclusively for books. Denied access to a circulating library until the age of seventeen, at which time he paid his subscription fees with funds earned working in a mill, Fillmore insisted on increasing both his knowledge and his vocabulary. At the mill, passing from machine to machine, he glanced at a dictionary from time-to-time, memorizing words and their definitions to the hum and drone of the looms.
The most recent Quinnipiac University national poll for example, showed 16% of registered voters saying they would support Kennedy if the election were being held today. The California State Polytechnic University, Humboldt campus will remain closed through the weekend as protesters, including "unidentified non-students," continue to occupy two buildings, school officials said in an update. The 76-year-old country star died in April 2022, a day before mother-daughter duo the Judds — made up of Naomi and eldest daughter Wynnona — was inducted into Country Music Hall of Fame. The family initially said they lost her “to the disease of mental illness.” Then, weeks later, Ashley Judd confirmed during a “Good Morning America” interview that her mother had used a gun to end her life. “Our history is alive all around us” was the message delivered by Stan Oftelie, Orange County historian and author of Nothing Rhymes with Orange, a local history book written for elementary school students and given to over 1700 third graders around the county. The book includes a scavenger hunt with Orange County landmarks, including the Nixon Library.
“I’m here because I am my beloved mother’s daughter and on the day she died, which will be the two-year anniversary in one week, the disease of mental illness was lying to her and with great terror convinced her that it would never get better,” Judd continued. Have you ever wanted to learn to knit or crochet but didn't think you could? This is the perfect time and place to be, every Tuesday from 4-5pm, at your local library. The White House Historical Association is pleased to offer a subscription program to its Digital Library. The Digital Library contains thousands of well-researched photographs, artwork, documents, and other materials covering the history of the White House since 1799.
Individuals who arrive with bags or prohibited items will not be permitted to enter the White House. The Week is part of Future plc, an international media group and leading digital publisher. The Reagan library offers over 125,000 square feet of exhibits, so please allow three to four hours to enjoy all of the galleries and grounds.
Digital displays, photographs, uniforms, posters and artifacts like the table used to plan D-Day tell the story of Eisenhower's life with wife Mamie, his leadership during World War II and his presidency. The Presidential Libraries Act of 1986[22] made additional changes to presidential libraries, requiring private endowments linked to the size of the facility. NARA uses these endowments to offset a portion of the maintenance costs for the library.
As an actor-turned-politician, Reagan knew the power of props, and there is no shortage of blockbuster artifacts here. Visitors can walk through the Air Force One that shuttled presidents from 1973 to 2001, see the interior of a Marine One helicopter and view Reagan's 1984 parade limousine. A full-size reproduction of the Oval Office looks just as it did during the Reagan years, and not far away in the garden is a large chunk of the Berlin Wall. Nancy Reagan has her own permanent exhibition as well, filled with dresses and baubles she wore while first lady. Join us at the Reagan Library for a fun and informative exhibition on Star Wars – both the real-world technology of SDI, as well as items from the movie phenomenon. The present-day White House Library was constructed as President Franklin Roosevelt’s personal library in 1935, but was not permanently stocked until 1963.
