  • How We Work a Vision for How We Do What We Do Titute for Adv I N S on Culture
    inStitute for AdvAnced StudieS in culture culture Spring 2007 • Spring 2007 Iss ue 1.1 how we how work A vision A for vision how we do for how what we do we do what we do how we how work on culture Since 1999, the inStitute for AdvAnced StudieS in culture has published a twice-yearly newsletter called INSight. My goal as editor has always been to report on the various activities of the Institute as well as to provide something of the intellectual substance of our work. news, as such, has been combined with short essays, book reviews and excerpts, interviews with fellows about their research projects, and the like. A suggestion that it might be time to give INSight a new look led me to wonder if this might also be the moment to change more than the design. the Institute is going through a transition. As we have grown, we have felt the need to define more carefully and completely our intellectual program. the first step in this process is now complete. over the past two years, the faculty of the Institute has written a “vision statement” to express our understanding of culture, cultural analysis, and the times we live in. An excerpt from that statement appears in this issue, and the full statement will be published soon on our website. the next step will be to draft a report that specifies more concretely how this intellectual program will be carried out in our educational and research initiatives. It will be a work in progress, refined in the give and take of intellectual exchange and development.

It was another year of progress and noteworthy achievement, and we are delighted to share some of the highlights with you. In April, we celebrated the accomplishments of our 35th graduating class of Jefferson Scholars. In the class were a Schwarzman Scholar, a Fulbright Scholar, the Edgar Shannon Outstanding Engineering Student, the Ernest H. Ern Outstanding TIMOTHY J. INGRASSIA Chairman Student, and the Algernon Sydney Sullivan Award winner. The class also included the managing editor of The Cavalier Daily, a Gray-Carrington Scholarship recipient, two vice-chairs of the Judiciary Committee, and the chair of the University Guide Service, along with the president of the Raven Society and a quadruple All-American national champion in Mock Trial. Eight members of the class lived on the Lawn, and the group graduated with a cumulative GPA of 3.77. We also celebrated a very impressive accomplishment of a Scholar alumnus, who graduated in 2018 and became the eighth member of the Jefferson Scholars community to win a Marshall Scholarship. The Scholars returning to Grounds in the fall of 2019 are well positioned to continue the legacy of excellence established by the more than 900 alumni of the Foundation.
