Also, anyone can donate to the scholarships held by the Association regardless of who created it. Creating a scholarship is a gratifying experience as the Director works closely with donors to craft how their awards will be managed and who they will support. As no two scholarships are alike, each process is tailored to meet the wishes of the donor. Whether it be an award that supports a current student or an award to help an entering student during their first year, each scholarship is important to the Association and the students it supports. To learn more about creating your own scholarship, or how to support any of those held by the Alumni Association, please contact Molly Bass, Director of Scholarships, Endowments and Awards, and explore how to make a difference for the students at UVA.

  • ABSTRACT BARR, KRISPIN WAGONER. the Historical Legacy of a Secret Society at Duke University
    ABSTRACT BARR, KRISPIN WAGONER. The Historical Legacy of a Secret Society at Duke University (1913-1971): Cultural Hegemony and the Tenacious Ideals of the “Big Man on Campus.” (Under the direction of Dr. Audrey Jaeger). Collegiate secret societies, as distinguished from Greek-letter fraternal organizations, enjoyed prominence within many American campus communities from the early nineteenth century through the mid-twentieth century (Baird, 1879; Hitchcock, 1863; Slosson, 1910; Veysey, 1965). The establishment of these elite groups preceded the maturation of university administrative structures responsible for managing students’ extracurricular life, as well as the mass democratization of American higher education which occurred after World War II (Rudolph, 1990; Cohen, 2010). The presence of prestigious secret societies is documented and celebrated in college yearbooks and newspapers, reflecting a period in higher education’s past when the hegemony of the white, male prevailed in student culture and fostered the composite ideal of the “Big Man on Campus” (“B.M.O.C.”) – the handsome varsity athlete, fraternity man, and club president destined for success in American public life. Although collegiate secret societies “disappeared” on many campuses in the Civil Rights Era amidst accusations of elitism and reactions against established white, Anglo- Saxon Protestant norms, their legacy lingers into the twenty-first century, along with many unanswered questions about their historical role as a source of student power on campus. Their roots can be traced to the prestigious all-male boarding schools of the Northeastern United States in the late nineteenth century where patterns of upper-class masculine socialization developed. Due to a dearth of historical research on this topic, however, institutional leaders are challenged to understand the origins, purpose, and legacy of this type of student association that still holds meaning for students and other stakeholders in some campus communities.

LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CHAIRMAN 3 LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CHAIRMAN ecure in the belief that actions speak louder than words, and always remem- bering that Mr. Jefferson never publicly took credit for writing what is argu- ably the most significant document in the history of Western civilization, the Jefferson Scholars Foundation has relentlessly pursued excellence year S after year without fanfare. In a slight alteration to the Foundation’s general aversion to “tooting its own horn,” this annual report seeks to highlight some of the Foundation’s significant accomplishments and the positive influence it has had both G. MOFFETT COCHRAN on its recipients and the University community.

  • Faculty Emeriti 2019 2020
    Faculty Emeriti 2019-2020 2 Faculty Emeriti University of Virginia June 2020 We congratulate this year’s retiring faculty emeriti, all of whom are eminent scholars, as they enter this new phase of their lives. This year, we celebrate the careers of 61 great teachers and researchers from nine schools and 37 disciplines, nominated by their schools for their exceptional accomplishments. This collection of short biographies spotlights women and men who have written dozens of books, won national awards of distinction, and made thrilling discoveries in their fields. But our retiring faculty members are also musicians, photographers, outdoor enthusiasts, and artists; gardeners, sports fans, and prolific travelers. Their accomplishments in our classrooms and laboratories were shaped by who they are. In their hobbies, as well as their academic interests, they contributed to the life of our community. All of them have great stories to tell. Because of the novel coronavirus pandemic, 2020 will be remembered as a time of intense upheaval and transformation at the University. And this likely isn’t the retirement our faculty emeriti envisioned. For those who delayed retirement festivities, and in place of our dinner in your honor, we raise a virtual glass to you and share your disappointment in these necessary but regrettable cancellations. We hope that it will make any celebrations all the sweeter when those days finally come. Until then, we hope that you enjoy reading this booklet and that it becomes a memorable keepsake. We are grateful to our faculty emeriti for all they have done and all they will continue to do for the University of Virginia.
