In this act adopted at Windsor, July 2, 1777, Section 40 states in part that "one grammar school in each county and one university in the state ought to be established by direction of the General Assembly." No action was taken by the Assembly to establish a university except that in granting charters to towns, it did require that one right of land be established for the endowment of a college or university. By 1785 there was a substantial amount of public sentiment in favor of establishing a college or university in Vermont. In that year Elijah Paine of Williamstown offered the General Assembly the sum of 2,000 pounds. Four years later Ira Allen offered the sum of 4,000 pounds. These and other of­ fers caused the General Assembly to appoint a committee to study the mat­ ter and to canvass the state in order to determine where the university should be located. This committee reported to the session of 1791 at which time the General Assembly decided that a university was to be founded to serve the state. A ballot was taken on the question of location and a decision was made in favor of Burlington, presumably because of the substantial support offered by Ira Allen, the Rev. Samuel Williams, and their associates. The General Assembly further voted to create a committee to draft a charter of the University. The report of the committee was adopted with amendments on November 3,1791, as the charter law of The Universi­ ty of Vermont. The University became the twentieth college in the United States and the fifth in New England chartered to confer the bachelor's degree. It is worthy of note that the University is the second to be estab­ lished by a state legislature after the formation of the United States. The ac­ tion of the 1791 Legislature also makes The Unversity of Vermont the oldest institution of higher education in the Green Mountain State. Thus did the founding Legislature of Vermont establish a university which was to develop like no other in the fledgling nation. While the enabling legislation provided for funding to come from rents, those were often fixed at "$.25 per acre as long as grass is green and water runs,'' and in any event were not reliably collectable. One result is the tradition, born of necessity, which has seen The Univer­ sity of Vermont develop in many of the same ways as the private institutions of the country have developed, with a substantial reliance on alumni and other private philanthropy. The first building was subscribed by citizens of Burlington and when fire destroyed that edifice in 1824, its successor, for which General Lafayette laid the cornerstone, was again made possible by the citizens of Burlington. That building, the Old Mill—still in use today—was only the first in a long line to be made possible by private philanthropy. The list includes all but one of the buildings on University Row: Ira Allen Chapel, Billings, Williams, Old Mill, and The Royall Tyler Theatre. Morrill Hall, the first UVM building to be provided by state funding, did not come until 1907. Other buildings made possible by private philanthropy include Waterman Memorial, Southwick, Fleming Museum, Converse, Dewey and Lafayette Halls. 3 4 | INTRODUCTION Medical alumni and other friends raised approximately $7,000,000 to match federal grants to make possible the Given Medical Building, its Medical Alumni Building wing, and the Dana Medical Library. In addition to a challenge grant from the Dana Foundation, the project attracted a $2,000,000 grant from the Given Foundation, the single largest building gift the University has received to date. Alumni and other friends also raised more than $1,000,000 of the $3,000,000 cost of the Patrick Gymnasium, Gutterson Field House, and For- bush Pool complex. The remainder is being paid by students, through retire­ ment of a bond issue. In like fashion, student rents have made possible most of the campus residence halls, which currently house about 4,000 of the University's 7,670 undergraduates. The most recent major construction undertaking at the University is an addition to the Bailey Library which will nearly double the size of the ex­ isting library. The $4,300,000 cost of the addition has been met by a bond issue secured by student library fees, a capital appropriation from the state, and $1 million in private contributions from the Chittenden County community. This latter figure includes $500,000 contributed by J. Warren and Lois H. McClure in memory of Mrs. McClure's father, David W. Howe, a 1914 alumnus and long-time publisher of The Burlington Free Press. When completed,

    ARCHITECTURAL/STRUCTURAL/MECHANICAL CONSULTING SERVICES ESSEX WESTFORD SCHOOL DISTRICT APRIL 7, 2021 April 7, 2021 Essex Westford School District Attn: Bruce Murdough, Director of Property Services 51 Park Street Essex Junction, VT 05452 RE: EWSD Comprehensive Facilities Assessment Dear Selection Committee, You will likely find that this proposal is different than others that you have received in response to your RFP, and that is intentional on our part. You are seeking professional Facility Conditions Assessment (FCA) services and that requires a very specific skillset, so we have teamed up with one of the leading assessment firms in the nation. Last year FFF and Accruent successfully completed an FCA for the entire Norwich University (NU) campus of 54 buildings, 11 categories of site elements, and all their kitchen equipment. To demonstrate the capabilities of professional assessors I can tell you that we completed the field assessment phase for all of NU’s buildings totaling 1,267,369 square feet in approximately three weeks. The data we collected was extensive and all of it was organized in an industry standardized database. We have included a very detailed description from Accruent of what an FCA is, the power of using it for planning purposes, and how we will create an FCA database for you from which a myriad of reports can be generated. Please do take extra time to read this information because I believe you will find it represents exactly the services you are looking for. We understand that EWSD is also in the process of researching software platforms that will manage the data collected as part of this FCA effort.
