    THE EDWARDS HOTEL: SIGNIFICANCE AND THE POLITICAL LANDSCAPE OF THE DEEP SOUTH By CHARLENE MARIE EIFFERT A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE IN ARCHITECTURAL STUDIES UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2006 Copyright 2006 by Charlene Marie Eiffert To my parents ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank God for placing me in the right place at the right time: in a loving family, amidst a supportive academic community, in Gainesville during Hurricane Katrina and in the Mississippi Department of Archives and History on March 15. So many things in my life would be different if I were left to my own devices, so being in good hands has everything to do with my success. I thank my parents. I am especially grateful to my father for teaching me that I can create my own future by the things I do today. Also, his lighthearted “study long, study wrong” mantra has helped a perfectionist like me to stop myself when I have done all I can. These two pieces of advice have taught me to never give up and to sometimes just let it go: an odd pairing of concepts that, when applied correctly, are my recipe for success. To my mother I am grateful for her constant encouragement during every stressful moment of this process, and every one of life’s processes so far. She has taught me so much, particularly to use discouragement as a motivating force. Her role as my friend is equal to her role as my mother.
