The History Of Flag Day

June 14th

The Fourth of July was traditionally celebrated as America's birthday, but the idea of an annual day specifically celebrating the Flag is believed to have first originated in 1885. BJ Cigrand, a schoolteacher, arranged for the pupils in the Fredonia, Wisconsin Public School, District 6, to observe June 14 (the 108th anniversary of the official adoption of The Stars and Stripes) as 'Flag Birthday'. In numerous magazines and newspaper articles and public addresses over the following years, Cigrand continued to enthusiastically advocate the observance of June 14 as 'Flag Birthday', or 'Flag Day'. On June 14, 1889, George Balch, a kindergarten teacher in New York City, planned appropriate ceremonies for the children of his school, and his idea of observing Flag Day was later adopted by the State Board of Education of New York. On June 14, 1891, the Betsy Ross House in Philadelphia held a Flag Day celebration, and on June 14 of the following year, the New York Society of the Sons of the Revolution, celebrated Flag Day. Following the suggestion of Colonel J Granville Leach (at the time historian of the Pennsylvania Society of the Sons of the Revolution), the Pennsylvania Society of Colonial Dames of America on April 25, 1893 adopted a resolution requesting the mayor of Philadelph-ia and all others in authority and all private citizens to display the Flag on June 14th. Leach went on to recommend that thereafter the day be known as 'Flag Day', and on that day, school children be assembled for appropriate exercises, with each child being given a small Flag. Two weeks later on May 8th, the Board of Managers of the Pennsylvania Society of Sons of the Revolution unanimously endorsed the action of the Pennsylvania Society of Colonial Dames. As a result of the resolution, Dr. Edward Brooks, then Superintendent of Public Schools of Philadelphia, directed that Flag Day exercises be held on June 14, 1893 in Independence Square. School children were assembled, each carrying a small Flag, and patriotic songs were sung and addresses delivered. In 1894, the governor of New York directed that on June 14 the Flag be displayed on all public buildings. With BJ Cigrand and Leroy Van Horn as the moving spirits, the Illinois organization, known as the American Flag Day Association, was organized for the purpose of promoting the holding of Flag Day exercises. On June 14th, 1894, under the auspices of this association, the first general public school children's celebration of Flag Day in Chicago was held in Douglas, Garfield, Humboldt, Lincoln, and Washington Parks, with more than 300,000 children participating. Adults, too, participated in patriotic programs. Franklin K. Lane, Secretary of the Interior, delivered a 1914 Flag Day address in which he repeated words he said the flag had spoken to him that morning: "I am what you make me; nothing more. I swing before your eyes as a bright gleam of color, a symbol of yourself." Inspired by these three decades of state and local celebrations, Flag Day - the anniversary of the Flag Resolution of 1777 - was officially established by the Proclamation of President Woodrow Wilson on May 30th, 1916. While Flag Day was celebrated in various communities for years after Wilson's proclamation, it was not until August 3rd, 1949, that President Truman signed an Act of Congress designating June 14th of each year as National Flag Day.

In our Spotlight

George K.K. Williams

My name is George Williams, I’m currently 38 years old, and I’m

from Tinton Falls, NJ and I am a veteran of the United States Air

Force in which I served from 1995-1999. My 1st duty assignment

was at Spangdahlem Air Base in Germany. I had many TDY

assignments including not limited to, Aviano Air Base Italy, Camp

Al-Jabbar Kuwait during Desert Shield. I am not at liberty to discuss

my functions however it was life changing for the best. I loved my

term, and tour in the USAF and I would do it all over again for I am

a patriot and I love my country. I chose to get out of the USAF in

1999 because my father and sister were about to undergo surgery

and he was a single father at the time and in addition to that I had

my first (and only) child on the way (Kenneth was born 8-18-99). When I got out of the

USAF in 1999 I moved to the metro-Atlanta area and began a career in

Telecommunication in which I had a foundation from my father in which he has been in

that career field his entire life. After a couple of years I found myself a single father (with

joint custody) and was introduced to the GA Fatherhood program.

In the winter of 2005 I met a gentlemen named James Hightower; GA Fatherhood

liaison to Chattahoochee Technical College, and then he introduced me to a counselor

named Barry Munday. These two gentlemen helped keep me focused for approximately

1.5 years and then my personal life became very hectic and I just quit. During the year of

2013 I had an awakening and realized that I needed to complete my studies and I

re-enrolled to Chatt Tech full time and paid out of pocket since the GA Fatherhood

program had been defunded. I went full time for an entire year so I could complete my

Criminal Justice Degree and I finally completed in the summer of 2014 and received my

degree in August of 2014 and walked in the commencement ceremony in the spring of

2015.

I plan on continuing my education but changing my major from Criminal Justice to

the Technology arena. I also feel very grateful and blessed that I had the opportunity to

meet great people and accomplish a goal. Although it took me all in all 9 years to

complete my AAS, I can say that I did complete it.

Degree Works Will Work For You!!!

Does this sound familiar?

Registration for the next semester begins next week...what courses do I need? I know some courses transferred from my last college but I don’t know which courses apply to my program. I have to work and cannot get to the college to get help with registration.

Here is the answer to these questions and concerns:

Chattahoochee Technical College has rolled out a new option for our students when it comes to advising and preparing for graduation.

DegreeWorks is a computerized degree audit program and academic advising tool de-

signed to assist you and advisors in reviewing your program progress. A Web-based

categorically, easily identifying courses you have completed and what courses you still

need in order to fulfill your program requirements.

Students can start accessing DegreeWorks by logging into their BannerWeb accounts, selecting Student Records, and clicking on the DegreeWorks Link. This program has the capability for “What If” exploration if you are considering a program change.

If you have any questions about your audit and the courses being applied, please contact your academic advisor.
