THIS DAY IN HISTORY - October 7
Arnold Schwarzenegger becomes Calif. Gov. 2003
On this day in 2003, actor Arnold Schwarzenegger is elected governor of California, the most populous state in the nation with the world’s fifth-largest economy. Despite his inexperience, Schwarzenegger came out on top in the 11-week campaign to replace Gray Davis, who had earlier become the first United States governor to be recalled by the people since 1921. Schwarzenegger was one of 135 candidates on the ballot, which included career politicians, other actors, and one adult-film star.
Born in Thal, Austria, on July 30, 1947, Arnold Schwarzenegger began body-building as a teenager. He won the first of four “Mr. Universe” body-building championships at the age of 20, and moved to the United States in 1968. He also went on to win a then-record seven “Mr. Olympia” championships, securing his reputation as a body-building legend, and soon began appearing in films. Schwarzenegger first attracted mainstream public attention for a Golden Globe®-winning performance in Stay Hungry (1976) and his appearance in the 1977 documentary Pumping Iron. At the same time, he was working on a B.A. at the University of Wisconsin, from which he graduated in 1979.
Schwarzenegger’s film career took off after his starring turn in 1982’s Conan the Barbarian. In 1983, he became a U.S. citizen; the next year he made his most famous film, The Terminator, directed by James Cameron. Although his acting talent is probably aptly described as limited, Schwarzenegger went on to become one of the most sought-after action-film stars of the 1980s and early 1990s and enjoyed an extremely lucrative career. The actor’s romantic life also captured the attention of the American public: he married television journalist and lifelong Democrat Maria Shriver, niece of the late President John F. Kennedy, in 1986.

Jacobsburg Speaker Series
Dr. Megan Rothenberger will speak on "Assessment of Dam Removal" Friday, October 12 at 7:00pm to 8:00pm. The proposed removal of multiple small dams along the lower Bushkill Creek has provided a valuable opportunity for multidisciplinary teams of Lafayette college faculty and students to evaluate the benefits and risks of stream restoration. This research is especially important since fewer than 10% of dam removals in the last century were accompanied by scientific study. Megan Rothenberger, Assistant Professor of Biology and Environmental Science at Lafayette College, will present a summary of the ongoing pre-dam removal research, which includes almost 8 years of water quality monitoring, surveys of freshwater mussels, analysis of heavy metals in legacy sediments and associated toxicity assays to assess potential risks to organisms downstream. Registration is required.

Dr. Megan Rothenberger will speak on "Assessment of Dam Removal" Friday, October 12 at 7:00pm to 8:00pm. The proposed removal of multiple small dams along the lower Bushkill Creek has provided a valuable opportunity for multidisciplinary teams of Lafayette college faculty and students to evaluate the benefits and risks of stream restoration. This research is especially important since fewer than 10% of dam removals in the last century were accompanied by scientific study. Megan Rothenberger, Assistant Professor of Biology and Environmental Science at Lafayette College, will present a summary of the ongoing pre-dam removal research, which includes almost 8 years of water quality monitoring, surveys of freshwater mussels, analysis of heavy metals in legacy sediments and associated toxicity assays to assess potential risks to organisms downstream. Registration is required.
