That is not department of education, its other departments and the government. This is a widely recognized problem that we have, that weve all contributed to including us in congress, those of us who have been in government. So heres my question, would you be willing an example, let me give an example for example when students withdraw from college a portion of their title 4 funds has to be returned to the federal government. Regulatory techs are figuring out what that is, over 200 pages in a handbook. Thats one of the number one objections they have. That could be easily fixed with financial responsibility standards, theres a requirement for audited Financial Statements for private nonprove it and for profit colleges that causes them to get expensive letters of credit according to this report. These requirements by the department dont cause dont follow accepted accounting principles, another one is that when the fapsa, the application for federal grant or loan which is 108 questions i

That pose, almost entirely ethic, to glory. And the movie lincoln has done aside what it has done for interest in lincoln, has done what historians have wanted to do, which is focus on the 13th amendment. Bravo to spielberg for doing what few historians have done. Cochair varon what did you think of the spielberg movie and his handling, depiction of the politics echo chair holzer well, i was an historical consultant who was ignored. [laughter] so, i love the parties and the premiers and meeting daniel daylewis, but yeah, i loved it. I thought it was perfect. It is a movie, not a history lesson. I thought the c
Mornings panel. We are going to talk a good bit today about the aftermath of the civil war and the legacy and memory. In this mornings panel were going to focus on the events of the spring and 1865. The last chapter in the work. In the war. I enjoyed by experts on lincoln, lee, and grant. Elizabeth and gary. Let us go back spring of 1865 and sets the stage. In march 1865, lincoln gives his famous second inaugural address. What are his hopes and expectations for the spring and his vision of what victory and peace might look like . Mr. Holzer shall i start . Professor varon that would be great. Mr. Holzer some people expect a more triumphalist second inaugural. But before he gets to ounces of malice, makes clear that he believes the war must continue as he puts it, until every drop of blood drawn with a lash is repaid by one drawn by the sword , if need. And he makes extraordinary declaration that north and south alike are equally guilty for the longstanding original american sin of slav
One 25th. In the 1980s and since, that despite the overwhelming numbers and resources, the reality was quite the opposite. It was 10 to one confederate to union actors in reenactments. The head ask soldiers from the confederate to act for the north to make it look more realistic.

History tv on cspan3. Among these questions, we will post a question. Sometimes, they will be directed at a specific panelist, but all the panelists are welcome to give their two cents worth. I am going to start here with the question and that gets back to lincoln and the press. A question from the box asks, was the pushback against lincolns handling of editors shutting down newspapers and what was his biggest mistake in dealing with the Northern Press . That is very good question. There was surprisingly little pushback from editors, authors of modern journals, we would have thought would have protested and raised the issue of the sanctity of the freedom of the press. Henry of the New York Times was the most influential journalist in the union. He talked about the limits of the press. One cannot i mention beads of sweat. [laughter] and yet oh, you are back.
