On\n May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n 1944.

On May 9,\n 1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n expected to remain in \n Naples for six or eight months. And, on\n May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n filled with hopes of returning home. There is also a letter,\n January 31, 1947, concerning a training session re: crude\n petroleum.","Letters, 1926-1947, from \n Edwin Hanson Sanders (1871-1948), and\n related correspondence, discuss family and business matters.\n There is a letter, April 5, 1929, from \n Shipton Kincannon Curran Sanders (his\n mother) to \n William E.

Sanders . \n Edwin Hanson Sanders wrote from the \n Department of Agriculture and Immigration,\n discussing breed of cattle and mentioning the effect of the\n war or prospects for war on farm products (November 10, 1939);\n and, giving a comparison of the business boom during the\n Spanish-American War, World War I, and the current one,\n mentioning the growing business activity at Radford with some\n eight thousand working, and commenting on low patriotism,\n partly due to salary conflicts.","Letters, 1924-1925, from \n Edwin Hanson Sanders, Jr. discuss life at \n Hampden-Sidney . Letters of March 1 and 22\n refer to his bid to an honorary fraternity [ \n The 13 Society ], which chose \"all round\n good men,\" who were then only known as members during their\n senior year.","Letters, 1939-1946, from \n Friel Tate Sanders (1915-1959) cover\n chiefly the period during World War II.

His letter of July 20,\n 1943 mentioned that the foods were similar, such as new\n potatoes, beans, tomatoes, corn, chicken, and watermelon. On\n July 31, 1944, he has heard good news and broadcasts about the\n Germans and Japanese. On November 28, 1944, he wrote that he\n has been moved to a new station; and, on March 20, 1945, he\n wrote that he is awaiting orders to go home. He wrote, from \n Miami Beach, Florida , on May 18, 1945,\n that the war was over, that he has finished processing and is\n awaiting a new assignment, that some materials are being\n released, such as tires, and that there is a possibility of an\n increase in gas allowance.

History accompanying\n Herbert's slide presentation.","During 1942-1947, \n Andrew Trigg Sanders (1910-) wrote about\n life in \n North Africa during World War II, general\n news about the war and conditions, and family and other news\n from home. On February 27, 1942, he wrote about camp life\n [probably in North Africa]. During October through December\n 1942, he was at \n Camp Pickett, Virginia , the location of\n new headquarters. During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n picture taken with \n Walt Disney and that two Virginia medical\n units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n Italy . On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n different than in \n North Africa , that fruits and nuts were\n plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n 1944. In his letter of September 19, 1944, he speculated as to\n when the war would be over and whether they would go to the \n Pacific ; mentioned casting his vote for\n Roosevelt; and being sent to \n Rome in charge of a group of men going\n there to rest, where he got the chance to tour certain points\n of interest. There are several letters following that discuss\n general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n 1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n expected to remain in \n Naples for six or eight months. And, on\n May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n filled with hopes of returning home. There is also a letter,\n January 31, 1947, concerning a training session re: crude\n petroleum.","Letters, 1926-1947, from \n Edwin Hanson Sanders (1871-1948), and\n related correspondence, discuss family and business matters.\n There is a letter, April 5, 1929, from \n Shipton Kincannon Curran Sanders (his\n mother) to \n William E. Fulton concerning family news.\n A letter of August 18, 1933, from Rev. \n H. G. Allen discusses the death of \n Shipton K. C. Sanders . \n Edwin Hanson Sanders wrote from the \n Department of Agriculture and Immigration,\n discussing breed of cattle and mentioning the effect of the\n war or prospects for war on farm products (November 10, 1939);\n and, giving a comparison of the business boom during the\n Spanish-American War, World War I, and the current one,\n mentioning the growing business activity at Radford with some\n eight thousand working, and commenting on low patriotism,\n partly due to salary conflicts.","Letters, 1924-1925, from \n Edwin Hanson Sanders, Jr. discuss life at \n Hampden-Sidney . Letters of March 1 and 22\n refer to his bid to an honorary fraternity [ \n The 13 Society ], which chose \"all round\n good men,\" who were then only known as members during their\n senior year.","Letters, 1939-1946, from \n Friel Tate Sanders (1915-1959) cover\n chiefly the period during World War II. During February 1943\n through April 1945, he was stationed in China. On March 20, he\n wrote that he arrived at his assigned post and was living in a\n private home and described life there. His letter of July 20,\n 1943 mentioned that the foods were similar, such as new\n potatoes, beans, tomatoes, corn, chicken, and watermelon. On\n July 31, 1944, he has heard good news and broadcasts about the\n Germans and Japanese. On November 28, 1944, he wrote that he\n has been moved to a new station; and, on March 20, 1945, he\n wrote that he is awaiting orders to go home. He wrote, from \n Miami Beach, Florida , on May 18, 1945,\n that the war was over, that he has finished processing and is\n awaiting a new assignment, that some materials are being\n released, such as tires, and that there is a possibility of an\n increase in gas allowance. During June through August 1945, he\n wrote from \n Stuttgart, Arkansas , concerning work and\n continuing studies under the G.I. Bill. Letters of October 31\n and December 19, 1946, are concerned with his marriage to \n Nelda Rose Hunter .","Other correspondents or topics of interest are: \" \n Hollins College \" folder -- \n E.

On February 27, 1942, he wrote about camp life\n [probably in North Africa]. During October through December\n 1942, he was at \n \u003cgeogname\u003eCamp Pickett, Virginia\u003c/geogname\u003e, the location of\n new headquarters. During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n picture taken with \n \u003cpersname\u003eWalt Disney\u003c/persname\u003eand that two Virginia medical\n units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n \u003cgeogname\u003eItaly\u003c/geogname\u003e. On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n different than in \n \u003cgeogname\u003eNorth Africa\u003c/geogname\u003e, that fruits and nuts were\n plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n 1944. In his letter of September 19, 1944, he speculated as to\n when the war would be over and whether they would go to the \n \u003cgeogname\u003ePacific\u003c/geogname\u003e; mentioned casting his vote for\n Roosevelt; and being sent to \n \u003cgeogname\u003eRome\u003c/geogname\u003ein charge of a group of men going\n there to rest, where he got the chance to tour certain points\n of interest. There are several letters following that discuss\n general news about the war and his family at home.

And, on\n May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n filled with hopes of returning home.

There are no access restrictions on the rest of the materials.","An Act of the Assembly of Albemarle County created Charlottesville, Virginia, in 1762. The Commonwealth of Virginia incorporated Charlottesville as a town in 1801, and then as a city in 1888.","Before 1888, the Albemarle County courts had jurisdiction over Charlottesville and managed the town's public records. With its incorporation as a city, Charlottesville gained the authority to establish its own courts and manage public records independent of the county.","In 1889, Charlottesville exercised its new authority by creating a \"Corporation Court.\" The city granted it the powers of both a circuit court and a municipal court as defined by the state government. The Corporation Court had original jurisdiction over misdemeanor and felony cases involving city ordinances and state law. It also had the authority to hear civil cases.","In 1973, the Corporation Court of Charlottesville was dissolved as part of a statewide reorganization of the court system in Virginia. This reorganization led to the creation of the Charlottesville Circuit Court and the Charlottesville District Court, with the powers of the former Corporation Court being divided between these two new entities. ","The Clerk's Office of the Corporation Court was responsible for preserving the court's records and other public records as mandated by law. When the Commonwealth of Virginia dissolved the Corporation Court, these responsibilities were transferred to the Clerk's Office of the Charlottesville Circuit Court.","This collection consists of public records initially filed at the clerk's offices of the Charlottesville Corporation and Circuit Courts. They include, but are not limited to the following: corporate charter books, docket books, court memorandum books, liens books, alcohol inventories, commitment records, writs of execution, local election certifications, and property assessment books.

CWGS finds its origins in an informal Caucus for Women's Concerns formed in 1972 within West Viginia University (WVU) to \"achieve equitable treatment of women.\" In 1977, the Caucus submitted recommendations to then-WVU President Gene Budig regarding the establishment of a women's studies program and an advisory council on women's concerns. In response to these recommendations, the Caucus was officially accepted by the university as the Council for Women's Concerns (CWC), which included a Women's Studies Subcommittee formed to research and help facilitate a formal women's studies program.","The first proposal for a women's studies program was submitted to the CWC by Renata Pore in 1978, upon which a search committee headed by Dr. Enid Portnoy of the English Department was established. In 1980, the Women's Studies Program (WSP) was officially established as an interdisciplinary program in the College of Arts and Sciences. Judith Stitzel, a founding member of the CWC, was selected to serve as the first part-time coordinator of the WSP.","Under Stitzel's direction, the WSP developed an undergraduate Certificate Program in Women's Studies to be first offered in 1984. Simultaneously, the Center for Women's Studies (CWS) was established in the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs and Research to provide a collective space for students to gather. Judith Stitzel was made the founding director of the center, a position she would hold until 1992, making her the longest consecutive director of the center. The CWS would become affiliated with the Eberly College of Arts and Sciences in 1993.","The first undergraduate Certificates in Women's Studies at WVU were awarded to six students in 1986, the same year the first Master of Arts in Liberal Studies (MALS) graduated in Women's Studies. The Carrie Koeteurius Scholarship, which is still offered as of 2024, was first awarded to Deborah Gregory Eck and Lilo Ast in 1987.","One of the early major projects of the CWC, the Women's Centenary, \"Excellence Through Equity\" began planning in 1987 with Dr. Lillian Waugh being chosen as the research coordinator. After several years of planning and research, the Women's Centenary commenced in September 1989 on the 100-year anniversary of the first group of women to be admitted to WVU as degree candidates. Events were held over a two-year period, including lecture series, galas, building rededications, historical tours, exhibits, time capsule creations, and county-wide engagements. The Women's Centenary culminated with a convocation in 1991 on the 100-year anniversary of the first woman to graduate from WVU, Harriet Lyon.","In 1992, Judith Stitzel stepped down as director of the CWC, and the position was taken up by Helen Bannan from 1994 to 1998. Under Barbara Howe's directorship from 1998 to 2007, a BA and undergraduate minor in women's studies was established to coexist with the Certificate in Women's Studies. The first WVU women's studies major, Jamie Lynn Baxter, graduated in December 2003.","Janice Spleth served as interim director between 2008 and 2009, before Ann Oberhauser took directorship in 2009. Under her leadership in 2012, the CWC was renamed the Center for Women's and Gender Studies to incorporate a larger scale of classes and topics. After Oberhauser stepped down in 2013, Jennifer Orlikoff took directorship until 2016. Between 2016 and 2019, Cari Carpenter and Kasi Jackson served as interim directors, during which the LGBTQ+ Center was opened. In 2019, Sharon Bird became director, a position she still holds as of October 2024. In 2021, the Center for Women's and Gender Studies moved into its home in the Hodges Hall, Suite 505.","This collection contains materials collected or created by the Center for Women's Studies (CWS) while researching and preparing for the West Virginia University (WVU) Women's Centenary between 1989 and 1991.
