This book was released on 2006 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1905, as the University of Virginia inaugurated him as its first president, the revered southern educator Edwin Anderson Alderman proposed an education school, despite the thriving existence of normal teachers' colleges, primarily female, throughout the state. John D. Rockefeller Sr. donated $100,000 in support, and the Curry Memorial School of Education was born.In the century since, the Curry School of Education has grown and solidified, struggled and diversified, and raised its expectations and its visibility. It has steered a dedicated course through the challenges of depression, war, student disaffection, and faculty debate by holding true to the visions of Jefferson and Alderman. Always attuned to and often leading the discussion about current educational theories, Curry School faculty, students, and graduates represent the evolution of American education during the twentieth century and into the twenty-first.From its original founding in 1905 to the visions it is now creating for the teachers and children of tomorrow, the Curry School of Education has a distinguished and significant history. In this centennial volume, Eleanor Vernon Wilson chronicles the decisions, responses, programs, initiatives, and accomplishments that together form the panoramic history of the Curry School of Education at the University of Virginia.

Download or read book The Centennial of the University of Virginia written by John Calvin Metcalf and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Centennial of the University of Virginia: 1819-1921; The Proceedings of the Centenary Celebration, May 31 to June 3, 1921 The University of Virginia was founded in 1819 by Thomas Jefferson. The celebration of its one-hundredth anniversary was delayed from 1919 to 1921 because of disturbed world conditions following the Great War. Prior to the Centennial there appeared the monumental History of the University of Virginia, by Philip Alexander Bruce, LL.D., the notable offering of a distinguished alumnus and historian; and coincident with that event was published a volume of poems, The Enchanted Years, contributed in honor of the occasion by poets of America and Great Britain. Shortly before the Centennial Celebration, there was shown on the moving-picture screen in Virginia and other states a series of important events and noteworthy scenes in the history of the University from the days of Jefferson and Poe to the present. The following pages set forth in order the proceedings of that historic occasion which covered four days, May 31-June 3, 1921. Most of the addresses delivered, a few representative greetings, and the text of the Centennial Pageant are included, together with a number of illustrations which will make more vivid to the reader certain memorable scenes. While the volume is primarily a record of the Centennial Celebration, it is in a larger sense an interpretation of the spirit of an institution through a hundred years of service to State and Nation.

Download or read book Students of the University of Virginia written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Students of the University of Virginia: A Semi-Centennial Catalogue, With Brief Biographical Sketches The reader is respectfully requested to remember, that the volume before him contains ten thousand names and over a hundred thousand statements of facts. Errors must needs occur in a compilation of this nature. The com pilers are willing to take their. Share of the responsibility, but not more than their share. A few mistakes may be credited to the printer, who has always to bear his burden. But the majority of errors will be found upon investigation not real errors, but misapprehensions, that can be retraced to 'the persons who furnished the information here presented. Many wrote of kinsmen and friends, unconscious of the bias that changed a Colonel into a General or an Assistant Surgeon into a Surgeon. Others relied too much on frail memory, and especially in questions relating to the early years of the University, mistook dates and forgot first names, or confounded brothers and namesakes with each other. Even where former students gave an account of themselves, memory did not always serve faithfully. And many a letter contained the strange statement, I was at the University, I believe, in 1835 or Nor must the fact be overlooked that not a few letters have ap peared, written by men who claim to have won honors at the University and to be most warmly attached to the Institu tion and their old teachers - but who, upon inquiry, are found never to have been entered on the University Record. Even the names of students offered an occasion for apparent errors. Some have changed their family name in after-life, others dropped or adopted Christian names - an eminent Western statesman, anxious to be correctly recorded, wrote that he had thus changed his first name three times in his life. The matriculation-book constantly shows certain names to assume new shapes in subsequent years; e.g., the Field of one year becomes a Feild in the second, the Thomson 1 Thompson, and the Sampson a Samson. Where there are such countless sources of possible error, great indulgence will, it is hoped, he practised and much allowance be made for apparent mistakes.

Book Synopsis Educated in Tyranny by : Maurie D. McInnis
Download or read book Educated in Tyranny written by Maurie D. McInnis and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2019-08-13 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the University of Virginia’s very inception, slavery was deeply woven into its fabric. Enslaved people first helped to construct and then later lived in the Academical Village; they raised and prepared food, washed clothes, cleaned privies, and chopped wood. They maintained the buildings, cleaned classrooms, and served as personal servants to faculty and students. At any given time, there were typically more than one hundred enslaved people residing alongside the students, faculty, and their families. The central paradox at the heart of UVA is also that of the nation: What does it mean to have a public university established to preserve democratic rights that is likewise founded and maintained on the stolen labor of others? In Educated in Tyranny, Maurie McInnis, Louis Nelson, and a group of contributing authors tell the largely unknown story of slavery at the University of Virginia. While UVA has long been celebrated as fulfilling Jefferson’s desire to educate citizens to lead and govern, McInnis and Nelson document the burgeoning political rift over slavery as Jefferson tried to protect southern men from anti-slavery ideas in northern institutions. In uncovering this history, Educated in Tyranny changes how we see the university during its first fifty years and understand its history hereafter.
Book Synopsis Buildings of Virginia by : Richard Guy Wilson
Download or read book Buildings of Virginia written by Richard Guy Wilson and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2002 with total page 598 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Old Dominion's built environment has grown and changed extensively since its beginnings and the Buildings of Virginia reflects those changes. The book chronicles Williamsburg, a restored eighteenth-century town with the Governor's Palace and the Christopher Wren building. And journeys farther west to Richmond, the state capitol, designed by Thomas Jefferson. It then captures the many historical sites including the birthplaces of George Washington and Robert E. Lee in Westmoreland County. Along with this, the chapters delve into the agricultural history of the state, the expansion of the railroad, and construction of deepwater facilities. And, finally, to the times during and after World War II when manufacturing, military activities, and the growth of the federal establishment accelerated the trends toward industrialization and urbanization. Virginia's influences are truly far reaching--virtually every American city shares some of its architectural style. Approximately 800 buildings and 450 photographs and maps are included in this volume's discussion, truly exhibiting the range of architecture that make up this region. Written by the voice behind A&E's America's Castles, this book is an ideal source for research in architectural history and sociology. Travelers and general readers can also utilize the book as a companion to the many fascinating sites throughout eastern Virginia.
