Richard Damm, Student; Dissertation topic: "Scientists and Statesmen: President Dwight D. Eisenhower's Science Advisers and National Security Policy." Mr. Damm, under the direction of Professor Hogan, is undertaking doctoral dissertation research into the history of President Eisenhower's science advisers and their influence on national security policy making during the 1950's. The research is taking place at the Eisenhower Library in Abilene Kansas and at the National Archives in Washington D.C. The information obtained from these two depositories, together with information garnered from current research in contemporary periodical literature on science and national security issues, will be used to develop a corporatist analysis of Eisenhower's science advisers, showing how professional and institutional ties affected their outlook and performance. This project will provide the first detailed historical study of the role of Eisenhower's science advisers in shaping national security policy, and will utilize an important set of records neglected to date: the Records of the President's Science Advisory Committee. This project will also illustrate an important theme in the development of the Cold War and the rise of the "national security state" that is still relevant today: the permanent mobilization of American science and scientists. Finally it will highlight one of the most important trends in modern American history: the exercise of public power by private elites.

理查德·达姆，学生；论文题目：“科学家与政治家：艾森豪威尔总统的科学顾问与国家安全政策”。在霍根教授的指导下，达姆先生正在进行博士论文研究，研究艾森豪威尔总统科学顾问的历史及其在20世纪50年代对国家安全政策制定的影响。这项研究正在堪萨斯州阿比林的艾森豪威尔图书馆和华盛顿特区的国家档案馆进行。从这两个资料库获得的信息，以及从当代科学和国家安全问题期刊文献的当前研究中获得的信息，将用于对艾森豪威尔的科学顾问进行社团分析。展示职业和机构关系如何影响他们的前景和表现。该项目将首次详细研究艾森豪威尔的科学顾问在制定国家安全政策方面的作用，并将利用迄今为止被忽视的一套重要记录：总统科学顾问委员会记录。该项目还将说明冷战发展和“国家安全国家”崛起的一个重要主题，这一主题至今仍具有相关性：美国科学和科学家的永久动员。最后，它将突出现代美国历史上最重要的趋势之一：私人精英对公共权力的行使。
