  • Chapter Four
    Chapter Four Translating lndustr~l7ansfortning Science: Making a Transition in Virginia, 1963- 1976 From 1963 to 1976, science "took off" in Virginia, as the business community slowly gained an awareness of the valuable contributions made to industry by organized scientists. Often assuming center stage in research and development, Virginia scientists rose in stature, both professionally and socially. Increasingly, scientists were called in to lend their expert knowledge, offering various explanations for events as well as providing mechanisms by which social groups - especially politi- cal - could accomplish objectives they viewed as necessary. At first, the Virginia Academy of Science benefited from the new role of scien- tists, achieving a fairly strong position in many of the webs of negotia- tions defining the course of Virginia science. Most notably, the Acad- emy was able to translate political interest in research and develop- ment into political interest in science education. This initial success did not last, however, in large past due to the inability of the VAS to con- tinue to position itself in terms of the changing context of scientific professionalism. Setting the Stage: Virginia, 1963- 1976 By the mid-sixties, Virginia at last could breathe a small sigh of relief. Massive Resistance -which many Virginia historians cite as the most crucial, shaping event of the century in the Commonwealtl~- by and large had come to an end, and the Old Dominion had begun the slow journey an7ayfrom the evil of racism towards a more moderate
