Donor Report All Pages The 2000–2001 Annual Donor Report of Emory University With Sincere Thanks From the Senior Vice President for Institutional Advancement or the first time, we have combined the Donor Report and Emory Magazine with the F hope that you will enjoy reading them in tandem. This year’s Donor Report focuses on our past efforts to build Emory into a world-class university and on our plans to continue this tradition and bolster our status among the country’s great institutions. Our physical campus, our student body, and our academic and research programs have grown significantly in recent years, and we proudly salute all of you who have contributed to these achievements. We are grateful for your commitment to Emory’s success and for your understanding of the importance of higher education in a world that has changed so tragically and dramatically in the past year. Through the continu- ing pursuit of knowledge, the myriad cultures of the world can reach a better understanding of, and perhaps show more respect for, each other. It is with great pleasure that we recognize the many splendid donors who have contributed to Emory in the last year, making FY2000–2001 the second-best fund-raising year in our his- tory. With the support of loyal alumni and friends such as you, we will continue the proud work of building Emory into an even more outstanding place of higher learning than it is today. Your unfailing generosity profoundly affects the life of this university and, indeed, the larger world as well. We are deeply grateful to each of you.

It is evident at the corner of North Decatur and Clifton roads, where the steel girders of the Donna and Marvin Schwartz Performing Arts Center have been fleshed out with an underbody of concrete, and on tiny Oxford Road, where the new science building continues to take shape. Further down Clifton Road, the Whitehead research facility is nearly complete.And at the University Apartments complex, now called Emory Clairmont Campus, the vestiges of a small city are rising on a hill that once held encampments of Union soldiers. hese buildings will bear the stamp of Emory’s architectural past, for all are being designed using the master-plan principles that honor Henry THornbostel, Emory’s original architect. The first of these master-plan initiatives is the new Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing building. “Coming together in this facility are the best of our past, our dreams for the future, and our commitment to nursing and its very special place in the acad- emy,” said Emory President William M. Chace at the building’s dedication. At 100,000 square feet, the building is twice the size of the school’s original facility. Its façade boasts elegant pink and gray veined marble accents and a wel- coming plaza that links the school physically and symbolically to its neighbors in the Woodruff Health Sciences Center’s medical-research complex off Clifton Road. he 2000–2001 Annual Donor Report of Emory University he 2000–2001 T 52 The new nursing school can accom- of a university, but Emory continues to modate nearly 700 students from nurs- build in less visible ways, to the better- ing, public health, and medicine.

COPY B. : POETICAL JOTTINGS OF THE HISTORY OF LOUISIANA. —f-f — BY CHARLES UAYARPE The following quotations are taken from the History of Louisiana by Charles Gayarre, the eminent writer and historian, and will no doubt prove to be a very appropriate preface to this work, as it will admit a basis of comparison for "Louisiana as it is to-day." After a masterly and graceful preliminary the learned historian said "I am willing to apply that criterion to Louisiana, considered both physically and historically; I am willing that my native State, which is but a fragrant of what Louisiana formerly was, should stand and fall by that test, and do not fear to approach with her the seat of judgment. I am prepared to show that her history is full of poetry of the highest order, and of the most varied nature. I have studied the subject "con amore," and with such reverential enthusiasm, and I may say with such filial piety, that it has grown upon my heart as well as upon my mind.

  • Lloyd Cutler
    White House Interview Program DATE: July 8, 1999 INTERVIEWEE: LLOYD CUTLER INTERVIEWER: Martha Kumar With Nancy Kassop MK: May we tape? LC: Yes, but I’d like to have one understanding. I have been misquoted on more than one occasion. I’ll be happy to talk to you about what I think about the transition but I don’t want my name attached to any of it. MK: Okay. So we’ll come back to you for any quotes. We’re going to look at both aspects: the transition itself and then the operations of the office. Working on the theory that one of the things that would be important for people is to understand how an effective operation works, what should they be aiming toward? For example, what is a smooth-running counsel’s office? What are the kinds of relationships that should be established and that sort of thing? So, in addition to looking at the transition, we’re just hoping they’re looking toward effective governance. In your time in Washington, observing many administrations from various distances, you have a good sense of transitions, what works and what doesn’t work. One of the things we want to do is isolate what are the elements of success—just take a number, six elements, five elements—that you think are common to successful transitions. What makes them work? LC: Well, the most important thing to grasp first is how much a White House itself, especially as it starts off after a change in the party occupying the White House, resembles a city hall.

  • Objectivity, Interdisciplinary Methodology, and Shared Authority
    ABSTRACT HISTORY TATE. RACHANICE CANDY PATRICE B.A. EMORY UNIVERSITY, 1987 M.P.A. GEORGIA STATE UNIVERSITY, 1990 M.A. UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN- MILWAUKEE, 1995 “OUR ART ITSELF WAS OUR ACTIVISM”: ATLANTA’S NEIGHBORHOOD ARTS CENTER, 1975-1990 Committee Chair: Richard Allen Morton. Ph.D. Dissertation dated May 2012 This cultural history study examined Atlanta’s Neighborhood Arts Center (NAC), which existed from 1975 to 1990, as an example of black cultural politics in the South. As a Black Arts Movement (BAM) institution, this regional expression has been missing from academic discussions of the period. The study investigated the multidisciplinary programming that was created to fulfill its motto of “Art for People’s Sake.” The five themes developed from the program research included: 1) the NAC represented the juxtaposition between the individual and the community, local and national; 2) the NAC reached out and extended the arts to the masses, rather than just focusing on the black middle class and white supporters; 3) the NAC was distinctive in space and location; 4) the NAC seemed to provide more opportunities for women artists than traditional BAM organizations; and 5) the NAC had a specific mission to elevate the social and political consciousness of black people. In addition to placing the Neighborhood Arts Center among the regional branches of the BAM family tree, using the programmatic findings, this research analyzed three themes found to be present in the black cultural politics of Atlanta which made for the center’s unique grassroots contributions to the movement. The themes centered on a history of politics, racial issues, and class dynamics.
