She wanted him to donate to the school in honor of her mother, UW alumnae, Harriet Rosenbaum, in order to put dedicated, well-trained social workers into the field as quickly as possible while reducing the financial barriers to earning the degree. When Sandy passed away that summer, Joel was determined to fulfill that promise. He’s done that and much more. What started with a scholarship fund has become a transformative gift to the school, now named the Sandra Rosenbaum School of Social Work. Covid-19, Black Lives Matter, and a new name.

Norment, Jr. (R-James City) today issued the following statement: “I was, and am, proud to be a member of the Class of 1968 of the Virginia Military Institute. As I acknowledged on Page 236 of The Bomb, that was a year of ‘imperative transition’ at VMI. “I served The Bomb as part of a seven-member team that included an Editor-in- Chief, a Lay-out Editor, a Copy Editor, an Art Director, a Production Assistant, a Business Manager, and my position, Managing Editor. “With 114 editions of The Bomb available online dating back to 1885, I am not surprised that those wanting to engulf Republican leaders in the current situations involving the Governor, Lt. Governor, and Attorney General would highlight the yearbook from my graduation a half century ago. “The use of blackface is abhorrent in our society and I emphatically condemn it. As one of seven working on a 359-page yearbook, I cannot endorse or associate myself with every photo, entry, or word on each page. However, I am not in any of the photos referenced on pages 82 or 122, nor did I take any of the photos in question. Paid for by Friends of Tommy Norment Statement of Senate Majority Leader Norment Page 2 “As my comment on Page 236 notes, I supported the integration of VMI.
