TIMOTHY J. INGRASSIA Key to his vision was a belief that education and freedom were linked Chairman inextricably and that individual talent and initiative were the sine qua non of leadership. Always a long-range thinker, Mr. Jefferson expected that the Commonwealth and the nation would be the beneficiaries of the leadership developed among students educated at his University. The Jefferson Scholars Foundation’s mission is grounded in Mr. Jefferson’s vision. The Foundation seeks to attract to the University the most promising students whose accomplishments in student government, creative endeavors, and other areas of individual challenge will set them on a path to make mature contributions to JAMES H. WRIGHT society after graduation. These contributions will benefit the world at President large long after their tenures on Grounds have ended. In 2017-18, the Foundation enjoyed another outstanding year. The 1 LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT & CHAIRMAN 34th class of Scholars commenced from Grounds in May. In the class were two Marshall Scholars, two Fulbright Scholars, a Luce Scholar, a Schwarzman Scholar, and a Carnegie Endowment for International Peace Fellow. Other recognitions achieved by members of the class include recipients of the Algernon Sydney Sullivan Award and the Ernest H. Ern Distinguished Student Award. Eight members of the class lived on the Lawn, and the cumulative GPA for the class was 3.79. 36OUTSTANDING STUDENTS While the class of 2018 was exceptional, the Scholars who will be returning to Grounds this fall are well positioned to continue the legacy of excellence to which they are heirs. Among the returning Scholars will be a Gray Carrington Scholarship recipient, three vice chairs of the Judiciary Committee, the vice president of the Engineering Student Council, the Rodman Council president, and the Inter-fraternity Council 23DIFFERENT president. Additionally, eight Scholars will be living on the Lawn and STATES six will be pursuing master’s degrees, having already received their undergraduate degrees. Our 14th class of Jefferson Fellows completed their tenures with us this spring. Their record of publications in scholarly journals and presentations at scholarly conferences, along with the recognitions they receive for teaching excellence, continue to impress. Equally impressive are their devotion to the intellectual enterprise and their eagerness to 2 LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT & CHAIRMAN share their knowledge with a wide audience. Just as we were bidding farewell and good luck to the graduating classes, we were preparing to welcome the newest Scholars and Fellows. The Jefferson Scholars Class of 2022 will be composed of 36 outstanding students from 23 different states. Our Graduate Fellowship ranks will include 12 new and very talented people selected from the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, five new Darden Fellows, and four new Engineering Fellows. The National Fellowship Program will welcome seven new recipients. The new Scholars and Fellows have exemplary records and will make positive contributions to the University. 73 While enrolled, Jefferson Scholars have an outsized impact on the SCHOLARS AND FELLOWS University. Eleven Scholars have been Honor Committee chairs, six have HAVE been student body presidents, 10 have served as student representative RECEIVED to the Board of Visitors, and 15 have received the Ernest H. Ern PRESTIGIOUS Distinguished Student Award. Additionally, 262 have lived on the Lawn NATIONAL and 393 have been inducted in to the Raven Society. FELLOWSHIPS The reach and impact of the Jefferson Scholars Foundation extends well beyond the contributions made by the Scholars and Fellows while they are students. Seventy-three have received prestigious national fellowships including 10 Rhodes Scholarships and seven Marshall Scholarships. Each year the Foundation serves as ambassador for 3 LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT & CHAIRMAN the University when it contacts 4,675 secondary schools in 61 regions around the country to promote the University and request nominations to the competition. This ambassadorial effort is led by approximately 1,000 friends and alumni who each year provide meaningful service on our selection committees. We now have 846 living alumni of our The Scholars’ undergraduate and graduate programs who are providing substantial leadership leadership to the University and their communities.

At June 30, the Foundation had assets totaling $447 million. 4 LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT & CHAIRMAN The Board of Directors is responsible for investment oversight and for policy decisions. Each year the terms of service for some members end, and new members are elected. Todd Schnuck and Marilyn Hebenstreit ended their terms this year. They both served the Foundation with devotion and commitment for which we are forever grateful. Nazee Batmanghelidj, Westray Battle, Tim Naughton, and Deborah Valentine will be joining the Board, and we welcome their active participation. 846 The Foundation suffered the loss of five close friends and benefactors LIVING over the course of the year. Mac Caputo, Lee Cochran, Claude Davenport, ALUMNI Skip Forrest, and Fred Trainor all were devoted advocates and loyal supporters. Their passing leaves us saddened and at the same time deeply grateful for all they did to help. Thirty-eight years ago, the Jefferson Scholarship experiment began. Today we can take pride in the impact the Foundation is having each year on Grounds. We can also take pride in its impact beyond Grounds, an impact that will grow more pronounced with each passing year and graduating class. TIMOTHY J. INGRASSIA JAMES H.

    Virginia Tech Hokies vs. No. 19/19 Virginia Cavaliers Postgame Notes Jan. 4, 2020 John Paul Jones Arena | Charlottesville, Va. FINAL SCORE: Virginia Tech 39, No. 19/19 Virginia 65 RECORDS AND NOTABLES ● Virginia Tech falls to 10-4 overall and 1-2 in ACC play. ● Tech is now 1-1 on the road in ACC play, with its lone victory coming over Clemson 67-60 in the season opener on Nov. 5. ● Tech trails Virginia in the all-time series 94-56, with the Cavaliers owning the last three meetings. Tech’s last win was a 61-60 overtime victory in Charlottesville in 2018. ● The last time Tech was held to under 40 points was on Feb. 18, 1967 at East Carolina in a 43-33 loss. ● UP NEXT: The Hokies will continue their road stretch as they travel to Syracuse, New York to take on ​ the Orange on Tuesday, Jan. 7 at 9 p.m. ET at the Carrier Dome.

After tying a season high of 49 points off the bench, Tech just mustered seven points versus the Cavaliers. ● KEY FIRST HALF RUN: The Hokies struggled to find offense early due to stifling defense from Virginia. ​ Tech fell behind 26-11 late in the first when redshirt freshman Landers Nolley finished off an old-fashioned three-point play followed by a triple from Nolley to cut into the deficit. Nolley scored 15 of Tech’s 17 points in the first half as Virginia entered halftime leading 30-17.

No information is available on her formative years other than she attended a boarding school in Berkeley during her teens. She appears to have been well educated and was an accomplished pianist, no doubt a prerequisite for all well-bred young ladies in the late nineteenth century. Her father was from a prominent Louisiana plantation family.

Although it’s been a few years since our club has had a newsletter, the name maintains continuity with the previous incarnation and also a sense of tradition. With the increasing use of the Internet, our website Welcome to New RAClub Members (Jan–July) (www.raclub.org), and the club’s Yahoo group David Buckwalter Shannon McCurdy (tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/rac_group/), it’s no Joseph Fordham Jessica & Chris Roberts surprise a dedicated newsletter fell out of favor. While David Johannsen Wayne Shields our Internet tools undoubtedly provide a necessary David Marlow David Tillman service and will continue to do so, after using these tools Ernest Mudd over the past 18 months, I felt something was missing. It finally occurred to me that while the RAClub Internet presence is indispensable, the club membership would benefit from a more intimate, more traditional way of receiving club information. I felt we needed one concise place where we could get a good overview of the members’ astronomical activities and provide some much- needed acknowledgement of their fine work. I wanted an electronic document that would serve as summary and an enduring historical record of our club’s activities. The StarGazer will become the first place prospective and new members can go to see the caliber and breadth of work we do on a quarterly basis.
