This project, uncovered by student Laura McGann at the Medill School of Journalism, sought to discover if college aid money was being fraudulently obtained to finance terrorist plots. Through the Inspector General of the Department of Education, the FBI was able to scan millions of financial aid records, although they searched for only several hundred names in total. According to FOIA requests, the program began just 10 days after September 11 and was discontinued in June 2006.

Jonathan Creek archaeological site Jonathan Creek archaeological site is an important Mississippian-era (ca. A.D. 1000-1500) village and burial mound site, situated on the banks of the Tennessee River, located in the unincorporated town of Aurora in Marshall county, Kentucky. It was originally discovered and noted by Robert Loughridge in the late 19th century. C.B. Moore returned in 1914-1915; however, his work failed to recover many significant artifacts. Further research of the site was initiated by William S. Webb with William D. Funkhouser in the 1930s, with excavations beginning in 1940 by the Civilian Conservation Corps. The project ended only 2 years later when the US entered into WWII. Webb published his findings in 1952. The reports revealed the remnants of 89 structures within a fortified stockade enclosure. The approximate occupation of this area dates from approximately 1200 AD to 1300 AD The original analysis of Dr. Webb was expanded upon by Dr. Sissel Schroeder who continued this work in the 1990s.

James Strang James Jesse Strang (March 21, 1813 – July 9, 1856) was an American religious leader, politician and self-proclaimed monarch. In 1844 he founded the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Strangite), a faction of the Latter Day Saint movement that he claimed to be the sole legitimate continuation of the Church of Christ founded by Joseph Smith fourteen years before. A major contender for leadership of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints during the 1844 succession crisis, Strang made overtures to Brigham Young and Sidney Rigdon and all of the other church leaders to remain in their offices and support Strang's appointment by Joseph Smith, however most of the apostles rejected the appointment. Rigdon claimed leadership of the church as the senior member of the First Presidency and Young claimed it as senior member of the Quorum of Twelve Apostles. Strang returned to Wisconsin and established his church headquarters there, excommunicating the apostles who did not support him, including Young. During his 12 years serving as Prophet, Seer and Revelator of his church, Strang reigned for six years as the crowned "king" of an ecclesiastical monarchy that he established on Beaver Island in the US state of Michigan. Building an organization that eventually rivaled Young's in Utah, Strang gained nearly 12,000 adherents prior to his murder in 1856, after which, most of his followers rallied under Joseph Smith III and formed the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
