Supplemental Questions
  1. In 1906 our government had the wisdom and foresight to pass the Antiquities Act. Since the Act was signed into law by President Theodore Roosevelt, it has provided the foundation upon which this country has protected it's heritage. Over 80 years later, Mollie Beattie, as Director of the US Fish & Wildlife Service, perfectly captured the spirit of the Act when she was quoted as saying "What a country chooses to save is what a country chooses to say about itself." Please read the Act and related articles and provide your thoughts in 300 to 500 words on whether the Act continues to be useful and appropriate 110 years since its enactment.
