Eisenhower subject of KU meeting
Conference will be chance to discuss and study the former president and his era
By Douglas Hundley Special to the Kansan
When Dwight E. Dissenwer left the White House he was well liked by the people, but critics thought he had done little during his eight years as president. A 1921 poll of historians found that in the lower third of presidents
Now, on the 100th anniversary of his birth, many scholars rate Eisenhower as one of the best.
"He was exemplary, a marvelous model," said Eisenhower biographer Stephen Ambrose.
Ambrose and more than 170 other scholars will discuss Eisenbower and his era Oct. 4-6 at the Kansas Union.
Historians, political scientists, economists, sociologists and journalists from the United States and
Europe are expected to attend the conference, which is named "Ike's America."
"This conference brings together more people doing more innovative work on the '50s than any ever held been," said Chester Pach, organizer and director of the KU Eisenbower Centennial Committee.
More than 100 papers will be presented at the conference. Topics will include the Cold War, civil rights, conformity and rebellion by '50s youth, the representation of women on television and in the arts, suburban society and culture and sexuality in the '50s.
"Sometimes we have several different disciplines in one session," Pach said. "For example, the session
on sexuality in the 1965 has a historical dealing with sexual behavior, then an American Studies scholar doing a paper on Esquire magazine and its notion of how men ought to conduct their sex lives, and then somebody who does literary criticism with sexuality in the novel 'Lolita'.
"That's what makes these sessions really interesting and fun."
Pach thinks Ambrose's presence will lend prestige to the conference.
Ambrose is professor of history at the University of New Orleans and the author of a two-volume biography of Elsehower. He will teach an undergraduate course at KU this fall in his capacity as the Rose Morgan Visiting Professor.
Ambrose said his admiration for
Eisenhower grew as he studied Eisenhower's diaries and papers.
"No one knows how many lives he saved by ending the war in Korea and refusing to enter any others, despite a half-dozen and more virtually unanimous recommendations that he go to war." Ambrose wrote in the book *Elisenhow biography*. "He made peace, and he kept the peace."
In conjunction with the conference, photographs and memorabilia from the 1950s will be displayed at the Union and '50s films will be shown. A '50s dance will be held Oct. 6 at the Union.
The three-day conference is free to KU students who present KUIDs. Admission for faculty, staff and the public will be $40.
