They were awarded based on the spoils system

The spoils system was the idea that the victor takes the spoils of war, that is, the person who won the presidency can fire all employees that don't support him and put his own people into positions of power in federal agencies and organizations. After that, the merit system was introduced that ended this corrupt practice.

Simple...

The camps were liberated by Allied forces near the end of the war.

If you remember, this is known as the Holocaust. What the Nazi's did to the Jew was a violation of their human rights and will always go down in history as something to never be forgotten. The way they were treated is unspeakable, brash, cruel, despicable and once the world had found out what the Nazi's were doing; there was a huge uproar. May this never be forgotten.

What contributes did christine ladd franklin make to psychology
Akimi4 [234]

Ladd-Franklin's mathematical interests ultimately led her to make important contributions to the field of psychology. In 1886, she became interested in the geometrical relationship between binocular vision and points in space and published a paper on this topic in the first volume of the American Journal of Psychology the following year. During the 1891-92 academic year, Ladd-Franklin took advantage of her husband's sabbatical leave from Johns Hopkins and traveled to Europe to conduct research in color vision in the laboratories of George Müller (1850-1934) in Göttingen, and Herman von Helmholtz (1821-1894) in Berlin, where she also attended lectures by Arthur König. In contrast to the prevailing three-color and opponent-color explanations of color vision, Ladd-Franklin developed an evolutionary theory that posited three stages in the development of color vision. Presenting her work at the International Congress of Psychology in London in 1892, she argued that black-white vision was the most primitive stage, since it occurs under the greatest variety of conditions, including under very low illumination and at the extreme edges of the visual field. The color white, she theorized, later became differentiated into blue and yellow, with yellow ultimately differentiated into red-green vision. Ladd-Franklin's theory was well-received and remained influential for some years, and its emphasis on evolution is still valid today.
