GIS + GPS = Illinois State Standards Illinois Social Studies #16 History The following information should be helpful to exploring the relationships to GIS, GPS and the state standards. The world of geography is a very encompassing subject. Besides geography, when looking at the standards below, try to relate them to other subject areas as well. STATE GOAL 16: Understand events, trends, individuals and movements shaping the history of Illinois, the United States and other nations. Why This Goal Is Important: George Santayana said "those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." In a broader sense, students who can examine and analyze the events of the past have a powerful tool for understanding the events of today and the future. They develop an understanding of how people, nations, actions and interactions have led to today's realities. In the process, they can better define their own roles as participating citizens. Learning Standard Apply the skills of historical analysis and interpretation.

The State's name was added to the flag to ensure that people not familiar with the Great Seal of Illinois would still recognize the banner. Flag adopted 1915.

Acknowledgments 1. What jobs are available for archaeologists? Professional archaeologists work for universities, colleges, museums, the federal government, state governments, in private companies, and as consultants. They teach, conduct field investigations, analyze artifacts and sites, and publish the results of their research. The minimal educational requirement to work as a field archaeologist is a B.A. or B.S. degree with a major in anthropology or archaeology and previous field experience (usually obtained by spending a summer in an archaeological field school or participating as a volunteer, see question 5). While this is sufficient to work on an archaeological field crew, it is not sufficient to move into supervisory roles. Supervisory positions require a graduate degree, either an M.A./M.S. or a Ph.D. Academic Positions Museum Positions . Museums may be connected with a university or independent. Museum curators conduct research, publish the results, give public presentations, prepare displays, and conserve the museum collections. Museum positions require a graduate degree (M.A./M.S. or Ph.D.). Museum positions are usually full-year appointments.

Judicial Profile By David Whelan High Hope Advocate for the poor brings new voice to highest court in the land of Lincoln Seven justices sit on the Illinois Supreme Court. Before becoming justices, six of them were appellate or circuit judges. Four have been trying cases for more than a quarter-century – the other two since the 1980s. Now meet Thomas Kilbride, Justice No. 7. This December, Justice Kilbride will celebrate his second anniversary as a member of the highest court in the land of Lincoln. It will also mark his second anniversary as a judge, period. Two years ago, the small-town lawyer from northwest Illinois entered the race for the 3rd Judicial District seat on the Illinois Supreme Court. He had never held judicial or legislative office. Kilbride’s credentials consisted of two decades representing low-income clients, as a staff attorney for Prairie State Legal Services and a solo practitioner specializing in child abuse and juvenile justice cases. The contrast with his well-heeled opponent, State Senate Judiciary Chairman Carl Hawkinson, could not have been starker, nor Kilbride’s chances seemingly more remote. Hawkinson was a powerful state official with a Harvard Law pedigree, more than a half-million dollars in his campaign coffers, and a strong base of Republican support in a district that had not voted for a Democrat since Illinois began electing its Supreme Court justices in 1970. So when Kilbride prevailed in the 2000 race with 52 percent of the vote, the political pundits were stunned. “When Kilbride originally filed to run, people assumed that if the election was left to its own devices, Hawkinson could have just mailed it in,” says Kent Redfield, a political studies professor at the University of Illinois. “Kilbride’s victory surprised everyone.”
