Join Dr. Michael Patrick Cullinane and members of the Center's education team for a deep dive into the changing nature of federalism during Theodore Roosevelt’s presidency. Dr. Cullinane will explore the shift in executive power, the use of commissions within Article II powers, and the lawsuits that established fresh precedents in constitutional law. After the scholar talk, we will be joined by a member of the Center's teacher network, who will share classroom resources that connect this material to pedagogical practice.
Dr. Cullinane is the senior historian at the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library and the award-winning author of Theodore Roosevelt’s Ghost: The History and Memory of an American Icon. Next month, Dr. Cullinane will publish Theodore Roosevelt and the Tennis Cabinet, which examines the inner circle of the president’s administration.
