In order to allow more strict enforcement of the FCPA, in 2010 the SEC developed a specialized unit within its enforcement division to focus on foreign bribes made by U.S. companies. This enforcement has brought a number of well-known U.S. and international companies under the gun, so to speak.
William Lloyd Garrison was a prominent American advocate of the abolition of the institution of slavery. Garrison was born in 1805 in Newburyport, Massachusetts. He received a limited education as a child, but he supplemented his schooling by working for various newspapers. He had several articles published in the Salem Gazette, before opening his own newspaper, the Newburyport Free Press, in 1826.
The principal, Professor James A. Gay, decided the school should keep the name Garrison in honor of William Lloyd Garrison, an abolitionist who served in President Abraham Lincolnâs cabinet. Garrison School soon earned the reputation as being the best school for African American students in the state of Missouri. Another distinguished principal and educator of Garrison School was Clarence E. Gantt. Under his leadership and administration a new gymnasium was built in 1938.
