Harry Truman’s legacy of decisive and principled leadership was frequently in the national spotlight during 2008 as the nation noted the 60th
anniversaries of some of President Truman’s most historic acts, including the recognition of Israel, his executive order to desegregate the U.S.
Armed Forces, the Berlin Airlift, and the 1948 Whistle Stop campaign. We are pleased to share highlights of the past year, all made possible by
your generous support of the Truman Library Institute and our mission to advance the Harry S. Truman Library and Museum.

exhibitions
On July 26, 1948, President Harry S. Truman signed Executive Order 9981, which provided for
equality of treatment and opportunity for all Americans serving in the armed forces. At great
risk to his own re-election in 1948, President Truman was willing to raise the civil rights
issue and to formulate and promote a reform agenda. His actions demonstrated his
determination to correct the abuses of the past and to advance the rights of all Americans.
Now an online exhibit tells this little known chapter in our nation’s civil rights story. The
documents, photographs, and firsthand accounts in To Secure These Rights give insight
into the political and cultural climate and the unlikely president who took a stand. To view

EDUCATION
STUDENT OUTREACH
The White House Decision Center During FY08, 5,394 students stepped into a re-creation of
the West Wing and into the shoes of President Truman, his cabinet members and advisers, and
members of the media. Praised in The New York Times as a model for all presidential libraries,
the White House Decision Center (WHDC) is the Truman Library’s flagship education program.
Designed as a hands-on history lab, the WHDC strengthens student skills in information
gathering and analysis, problem solving, decision making, leadership, and communication, while
deepening knowledge of history and government. Grade 8 – Adult
Museum Tours More than 11,239 students visited the museum in FY08. Two-thirds of the

Hudson Foundation, and the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation. K-12
Truman Footlocker In FY08, more than 1,200 students experienced the Truman Footlocker, a
popular, hands-on classroom resource filled with replicas of Truman-related artifacts, documents
and photographs. K-12
National History Day More than 400 students in grades 6-12 competed at the Truman Library
in the regional competition of the National History Day Contest on March 10, 2008. Of those, 13

NEW – Presidential Election Trivia Contest With one of the most dramatic elections in
modern history as a backdrop, 54 students on nine teams from across Missouri went toe to toe
on topics ranging from Defeated Presidents to Vice Presidential Candidates to Slogans, Ads &
Speeches. First Place was awarded to Rock Bridge High School in Columbia, Mo. Second and
third-place prizes went to Holden and Tarkio high schools, respectively.
