V^^-i-^i^€uJj^^_^ — #YA.C;tVlLl Y TAC^ TW€W^<fT'- FRANCIS PRESTON VENABLE 'PON assuming the taxing duties of the presidency of this institution in 1900, the distinguished scholar to whom this volume is fittingly dedicated, bodied an image M of the University in words eloquent of the ideals which have animated him in its direction: "A shining light in the darkness, clearly and patiently directing the course of those who would travel the pathway to knowledge and the higher life; a center of gracious and helpful influence streaming out into the whole land; a strong foundation unmoved by frenzied passion, by the shifting sands of political change, by the bigotry of ignorance, or the selfish bias of wealth; a treasure which cannot be bought or sold away from the people, by whom and for whom it was created; a loving mother of many noble sons, whom it is her pride to help and nourish and lead upwards to the light." The son of a father, distinguished like himself for scientific attainment and executive skill. Colonel Charles S. Venable, Aide to General R. E. Lee in the Confederate Army, Professor of Mathematics in the University of Virginia and sometime Chairman of the Faculty, he was born in Prince Edward County, Va., November 17, 1856. Shortly after his graduation from the University of Virginia in 1877, he exhibited that inclination to the study of science which has marked his entire career. Following a year's work of grad- uate study at his Alma Mater in chemistry, natural philosophy, and mineralogy, he pur- sued studies in chemistry abroad at Bonn, at Gottingen, where he received the degrees of M.A. and Ph.D., and later at Berlin. At the age of twenty-three, while still a student at Bonn, he was called to take charge of the school of chemistry at this university which then boasted a faculty of only seven professors, two instructors, and some one hundred and fifty students. During the two decades of his service in this capacity, he built up, through the sheer force of personality and the volume and excellence of creative contributions to science, the strongest depart- ment of chemistry in any Southern university. During this period he published more than three score papers in the chief scientific journals; and won high repute for his pub- lished books Qualitative Analysis, Short History of Chemistry, The History of the Periodic Law, with which his name is particularly associated. Inorganic Chemistry According to the Periodic Law (in conjunction with Professor J. L. Howe), and A Study of the Atom. Rec- ognition of his contributions to science in the field of chemistry came in the form of elec- tions to various high posts in scientific societies—in this country and abroad. Succes- sively Councilor of the American Chemical Society, fellow of the London Chemical So- ciety and the American Association for the Advancement of Science, member of the Deutsche Chemische Gesellschaft and the American Philosophical Society, he was in 1905 elected to the post of highest honor in his profession in this country. President of the American Chemical Society. High honorary degrees,—notably Doctor of Laws by the University of Pennsylvania and Doctor of Science by Lafayette, among others,—were conferred upon him in recognition of his eminence as scientist. As the successor of Dr. Alderman, he was unanimously elected to the presidency of this University on May 5, 1900. It was self-confessedly from a sense of a higher call for ser- vice that he gave up his life work to undertake the less congenial duties of the presidency. During the fourteen years of his incumbency as president, he saw grow and rise to splen- did proportions the University to the upbuilding of which he had dedicated himself. En- dowed with natural ability as an organizer, a confirmed believer in the efficiency which connotes scholarship, he set vigorously to work to build a memorable foundation and stable substructure for the destined greater University of the future. The material progress and numerical advance achieved during his administration indubitably wrought the trans- formation of the institution from a college into a university. During his administration, the number of students increased from five hundred to nine hundred, approximately; of faculty from thirty-five to eighty-seven, of buildings from ten to twenty-four; of courses offered from one hundred and eleven to three hundred and forty four. The value of the plant trebled, and the endowment was well nigh doubled. In addition to the widening of the meaning of the function of the university in a democratic state, the enlargement of its activities through the definite organization of the graduate school and schools of applied science and education. President Venable threw the weight of his influence toward the stimulation of research in the University, and in a measure throughout the entire South. It was through his efforts, aided by a faculty of high and varied abilities, that this insti- tution came to assume a position in the forefront of American State Universities, and won an enviable reputation for the soundness and authenticity of its scholarship. Today as the occupant of a chair of chemistry, the science which he has so genuinely furthered in America, a chair appropriately named in his honor, he gives lavishly of his genial personality and wide learning to the instruction of youth— a task to which he has already allotted the best years of a lifetime. Though young in years and young m spirit, may he realize the enviable distinction already almost achieved, of the longest term of continuous service ever rendered to this ancient and honorable institution.

  • Racial Justice Movements at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, 1951-2018
    RECLAIMING THE UNIVERSITY OF THE PEOPLE: RACIAL JUSTICE MOVEMENTS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA AT CHAPEL HILL, 1951-2018 Charlotte Fryar A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of American Studies. Chapel Hill 2019 Approved by: Seth Kotch Rachel Seidman Altha Cravey Timothy Marr Daniel Anderson © 2019 Charlotte Fryar ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Charlotte Fryar: Reclaiming the University of the People: Racial Justice Movements at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, 1951-2018 (Under the direction of Seth Kotch) This dissertation examines how Black students and workers engaged in movements for racial justice at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill from 1951 to 2018 challenged the University’s dominant cultural landscape of white supremacy—a landscape in direct conflict with the University’s mission to be a public university in service to all citizens of North Carolina. Beginning with the University’s legal desegregation, this dissertation tells the history of Black students’ and workers’ resistance to institutional anti-Blackness, demonstrating how the University consistently sought to exclude Black identities and diminish any movement that challenged its white supremacy. Activated by the knowledge of the University’s history as a site of enslavement and as an institution which maintained and fortified white supremacy and segregation across North Carolina, Black students and workers protested the ways in which the University reflects and enacts systemic racial inequities within its institutional and campus landscapes.

  • Branding and Identity Guidelines
    BRANDING AND IDENTITY GUIDELINES Rev. 04/14/2021. For the most recent guidelines, please visit identity.unc.edu. The nation’s first public university is at the heart of what’s next, as we prepare a diverse student body to become creators, explorers, innovators and leaders in North Carolina and throughout the world. The legacy that began in 1795, when the University first opened its doors to students, continues today with Carolina’s nationally recognized, innovative teaching; campuswide spirit of inquiry; and dedication to public service. Letter from Joel Curran: With today’s crowded landscape, an organization’s brand is critical—it drives awareness and recognition and evokes feelings. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is the first public university in the nation. It has a rich history of excellence as the “University of the People” and a dynamic present and future as a major research institution. Because of its legacy and promise, UNC-Chapel Hill is a well-known, globally respected brand. As communicators, we are the stewards of that brand. The way that we present Carolina through visual, digital and written communications helps strengthen our connection with all audiences and promotes our values and vision. Style guides are an important tool and a best practice used at peer universities and major organizations to ensure that a consistent tone, look and feel are conveyed. The style guide for UNC-Chapel Hill includes standards for the use of the University logo, Carolina Blue and other identifying marks, as well as the expanded visual identity that supports the core brand.
