When the Legal Aid Justice Center purchased the property at 1000 Preston Avenue to house our Charlottesville office, it was faced with a critical decision. Beside the main build- ing on the property sat a deteriorating old house made of stone. The roof of the house was leaking, the paint was peeling, and the floorboards were rotting. “Initial estimates to restore the property were nearly $500,000,” said Executive Director Alex Gulotta. “Many people said, ‘The house is a liability—tear it down.’” The demolition of the house seemed inevitable. Fortunately, a small group of dedicated volunteers formed to research the history of the house to determine its value. The newly formed Rock House Steering Committee, including Daniel Bluestone, director of the Historic Preservation Program at the University of Virginia, uncovered the truth. This house was no liability— it was a significant part of Charlottesville history. The Rock House was built by Charles B. Holt, who engraved Julian Bond delivers the reception address for the C.B.

  • Understanding ‗It': Affective Authenticity, Space, and the Phish
    Understanding ‗It‘: Affective Authenticity, Space, and the Phish Scene By C2010 Elizabeth Anne Yeager Submitted to the graduate degree program in American Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ________________________________ Chairperson, Sherrie J. Tucker ________________________________ Ben Chappell ________________________________ Henry Bial ________________________________ Eric Weisbard ________________________________ Nicole Hodges Persley Date Defended: December 14, 2010 ii The Dissertation Committee for Elizabeth Anne Yeager certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Understanding ‗It‘: Affective Authenticity, Space, and the Phish Scene ________________________________ Chairperson, Sherrie J. Tucker Date approved: April 18, 2011 iii Abstract ―Understanding It: Affective Authenticity, Space, and the Phish Scene‖ is an ethnographic study of ―scene identity‖ around the contemporary rock band Phish. Utilizing data generated from six years of ethnographic fieldwork, including over one hundred and fifty interviews with Phish scene participants, this project explores how the production of space at Phish shows works to form a Phish scene identity. I contend that the identity of the Phish scene, what the band members and fans refer to as ―it‖ and I call a spatial articulation of affective authenticity, is produced and formed by scene members themselves, drawing from the interrelations between the production of space (practices that create a specific environment) at shows and a white, middle and upper-middle class cultural memory of the Grateful Dead scene. I situate this process amidst a cultural backdrop of 1980s and 1990s identity politics and in particular, multiculturalism and suggest that Phish scene identity be analyzed as a middle class performance of resistance that achieves community and meaning without resisting class privilege.

  • Leroi Moore: a Biography
    LEROI MOORE: A BIOGRAPHY by Bobby Daryl Fuson II A DOCTORAL DOCUMENT Presented to the Faculty of The Graduate College at the University of Nebraska In Partial Fulfillment of Requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Musical Arts Major: Music Under the Supervision of Professor Paul Haar Lincoln, Nebraska May, 2016 LEROI MOORE: A BIOGRAPHY Bobby Fuson II, D.M.A. University of Nebraska, 2016 Advisor: Paul Haar Few artists thrive at the crossroads of musicality, originality, and popularity. Musicians and critics often laud the first two and neglect the latter. Any imbalance in ratios between them that tips toward popularity is balanced by diminishing the creative elements. Saxophonist LeRoi Moore (1961-2008) of the Dave Matthews Band was one artist who balanced all three. While his musical output was prodigious very little is known about him. He was a reclusive figure onstage and in public, shunning interviews and at times literally the spotlight, despite being a founding member of one of the most commercially successful bands of the last two decades. Musically Moore was firmly planted in the jazz tradition for which his instrument has become known. A gifted improviser and arranger, the quality of his musical contributions was consistently high and pure. Moore’s music was creative, original, and popular in equal measure. A biography of his life and analysis of his works are essential to recognizing his place in the history of American music.

Through an unlikely series of events, one being having an office just a few blocks away from the former World Trade Center in New York in September of 2001, that experience led him to become one of the first to bridge the gap between yoga, wellness and music. His name is Jeff Krasno. You may have heard of the worldwide movement that he started many years ago called Wanderlust. Well, Jeff is going to take us through that journey as well as how it evolved into his more recent movement, which is called One Commune.

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.
