Serving up a Slice of Entrepreneurship on Campus
An interdisciplinary team at Wichita State University with individuals from the departments of Business, Communication, History, and Museum Studies worked with a design firm to rehabilitate the first Pizza Hut into a museum, an endeavor that crossed the boundaries of academic, institutional, and corporate voices. Following the university’s commitment to accessibility, shared authority became an asset in showing how the latest technology was not a…
Stigma Cities
Connecting Birmingham with San Francisco and Las Vegas may seem odd, but all three cities were caught in the cultural shifts in American attitudes toward race and morality in the 1960s and 1970s. Jonathan Foster uses the concept of stigma to explore how city leaders and boosters struggled to maintain a positive city image despite often-uncontrollable national trends. For segregated Birmingham, violent reactions to civil rights turned the city int…
The Medal of Honor
Dwight S. Mears's The Medal of Honor illustrates well that the medal “cannot be viewed as a static decoration” because it “has had different qualification thresholds at different times” (p. 202). Since the U.S. Army and U.S. Navy created their respective awards during the Civil War, some argued that these marked only extraordinary heroism “above and beyond the call of duty” in combat. For others, meritorious service, even in peacetime, deserved r…
A Land Apart
Flannery Burke’s A Land Apart: The Southwest and the Nation in the Twentieth Century invites the student of the region to unpack the complicated stories in which Latinos, Native peoples, Anglos, African Americans, and Asians attempted to make sense of their places in this ever-changing cultural landscape. She sets aside the tired discussions of boundaries, opting to limit the “Southwest” to Arizona, New Mexico, and the corresponding border areas …
Del Norte Meets Little Saigon
Since the 1970s, a stretch of Broadway Avenue in Wichita, Kansas, has seen the growth of both Latino and Asian businesses. Using mapping, data analysis, and historical research, this study compares the growth of ethnic entrepreneurship between both populations. The results not only reveal similarities but also illustrate the degree to which ethnic entrepreneurship varies, depending on a population’s situation in a given location

Temples for a Modern God
In the decades following World War II, Americans undertook one of the biggest religious building booms in their history, erecting synagogues, churches, cathedrals, chapels, retreat centers, and shrines in unprecedented numbers. While building committees struggled to balance style, cost, theology, and functionality, in the background was a turbulent and shifting landscape where religious and architectural concepts unfolded in new directions. A new…
Still Facing John Wayne After All These Years
Inspired by new western history, public history projects have for thirty years presented larger audiences with a sense of Western history that addresses issues of race, class, and gender. The legacy of these efforts is mixed. Public knowledge of Western history is considerably more sophisticated than it once was, although the Hollywood image of the West has proven hard to unseat. No longer youthful challengers to an educational and institutional …

Echoing off the Heart of the Heartland
In many cases, residents in rural communities requiring specialized medical diagnostics and care have had to either endure long journeys to larger cities or do without. In response, a number of programs and services have emerged to bring the latest medical advances to rural populations. For example, in the 1970s a team of cardiologists in Wichita established a system of mobile echocardiography units that went to hospitals in Kansas and in neighbo…

Incontestable Proof Will Be Exacted
For more than a century the Medal of Honor has served as a revered symbol of valor and service to the nation. In the 1990s Japanese American veterans requested a review of their service in World War II to determine whether the U.S. Army has overlooked any of their number for the award. In 1996 a team of historians began a review of all Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders who fought in that war. Their work resulted in the award of twenty-two new…
