Education and Corporations in the School of Education), and the library of the School of
Law at the University of South Dakota. InTEC's director, Michael Hoadley, and staff
provided production assistance for this project. The instructor of Honors Western
Civilization, Clayton Miles Lehmann, assembled
this site. Send comments about it to him at clehmann@usd.edu.
He described the project in an article published in Perspectives in 1997; you can read this article on-line. He also presented it at the end
of its second year at the Syllabus '97 Conference; you can read this
article as well as a report on the conference.
The House the West Built is a project by students fulfilling course
requirements. It began in the spring semester, 1996. The instructor conceived it as an
experimental approach to undergraduate research and the presentation of the results of
that research. Some of the objects incorporated in these pages came from copyrighted
sources, which we acknowledge and to which we supply links where appropriate. Any owner of
these objects who objects to our use of them in this format should notify Clayton Miles Lehmann, who will immediately
remove them from the project. Visitors to this site are welcome freely to establish links
to it.
