Things I would do as MLB commissioner: - Fire Angel Hernandez - Officially recognize Armando Galarraga's perfect game - Nullify the cheating Astros' championships

Things I would do as MLB commissioner: - bring back the shift - no more pitch clock - goodbye 3 batter minimum - bring back spider tack - steroids are now required - adios ghost runner - instead of xtra innings, you have a benches clearing brawl to determine a winner.

Good Review in the Missouri Historical Review! “The First Migrants is a highly readable, lively book that not only contextualizes the homesteading movement of African Americans in the West but does so by…showcasing personal stories within a decades long movement.”

In going over my interviews with high-performing, intellectually curious @UNL_IANR students, a common theme is the importance of internships that connect to their career interests: "I'm using in a professional setting what I've learned in class. That's important to me"
