2019., Grey House Publishing Call No: 335.4 REF Availability:1 of 1 At Location(s)Remote access available: onondaga Series Title: The Reference Shelf Volume: volume 91, number 3Summary Note: This volume of The Reference Shelf focuses on the National Forensics League’s (NFL) 2019-2020 National Debate Topic, Arms Sales. America’s arms-sales policy directs both commercial sales (DCS) and foreign military sales (FMS) and can be viewed as either a key tool of foreign policy and national security or as a practice that results in the opposite of its intent: increased terrorism, instability, and advanced military technology ending up in the hands of hostile forces. Does the current policy encourage nation-building and maintain military balance among nations? Would a reduction in arms sales by the United States simply be filled by a competing power such as Russia or China? Are human-rights violations overlooked when selling arms to countries that are strategically important to U.S. defense? What would be the effect on the U.S. economy if arms sales are reduced? These are some of the issues that will be raised in this important debate.

2021., Grey House Publishing Call No: 796.043 COL Availability:1 of 1 At Location(s) Series Title: Reference shelf Volume: v. 93, no. 4.Summary Note: Where should America draw the line between professional and student athletes? This volume examines a variety of scandals and controversies in the college sports world, including admission scandals and the methods that recruiters and school administrators use to find, sign, and groom players. While some celebrate college sports and its role in producing players who go on to play at the professional level, others argue that college athletics denigrates the role that universities and colleges are supposed to play and that too often student athletes are exploited. Other critics argue that the entire college sports industry costs too much, resulting in rising tuition and college costs for students who receive little benefit from their institution's sporting activities. This volume also looks at whether or not college athletes deserve some portion of the more than $1 billion industry that they create. This volume begins with a preface; an overview of the debate including explanation of the risks and rewards of being a student athlete, as well as the challenges that college sports face. College Sports includes articles, documents, and other literary works that fall into five topics: Educational Environments, The Cost of College Athletics, Lives on the Line, Access to Athletics, Professionals and Amateurs. Together, this information provides thoughtful, comprehensive coverage of college sports and how the discussions surrounding it have come to be such pressing debates in modern times. - Publisher.

[2018]., Grey House Publishing Call No: 325.73 ISS Availability:1 of 1 At Location(s)Remote access: onondaga Series Title: The reference shelfSummary Note: This volume tracks the changing national views on immigration. Historian at-large Micah Issitt traces the path of public opinion and policy on immigration in American history, with each chapter providing insightful commentary on a selected primary source. Drawing from the popular press, key court and legislative battles, speeches, social activism and opinion polls, Opinions Throughout History-Immigration offers readers mixed sources of information woven together to highlight the overall momentum of developing public opinion on this perennial policy issue. As the country grows and expands to accommodate new waves of immigrants, the book explores the tension between welcoming newcomers and seeing their value to the nascent nation and rejecting immigrants and the strains of anti-immigration thought in American society. Issues discussed are historic patterns of immigration from Ellis Island to the Homestead Act, fear of immigration and the Chinese Exclusion Act, racism and immigration law, the establishment of quotas, eminent domain, the War on Terror, displaced persons and refugees as well as border patrol. The volume explores both the polarized opinions and current flashpoints in immigration including the merits of the HB1 visa, the travel ban from predominantly Muslim nations, the proposed border wall and the future of immigrants who came to the US as children. Immigration provides an essential resource for history and social studies research and an accessible commentary on the ways in which immigration opinion and policy have evolved and will continue to evolve.
