She was married to Robert Stitzel, former professor of pharmacology at WVU, from 1961 till his death in 2007. The couple had one son, David. Dr. Stitzel taught at West Virginia University from 1965 until her retirement in 1998. During that time, she served as a professor of English, director of the WVU Writing Lab, coordinator of the Women's Studies program, and director of the Center for Women's Studies. Dr. Stitzel was and continues to be active in many professional and community service organizations.","Dr. Stitzel received her B.A. in English from Barnard College (1961), her M.A. in English from the University of Wisconsin (1962), and her Ph.D. in English from the University of Minnesota (1968). She joined the West Virginia University faculty as an instructor in the Department of English in 1965 and taught at WVU until her retirement in May 1998 as professor emerita of English and women's studies. During her 33-year career at WVU, she served as the first director of the Writing Lab in the Department of English, taught some of the earliest courses on women in literature, was the first coordinator of the women's studies program (1980-1984) and the first director of the Center for Women's Studies (1984-1993). While director of the Center for Women's Studies, she established the annual JoAnne and Charles Dickinson symposium. From 1993 until her retirement, she was a professor of English and women's studies. ","Dr. Stitzel offered public and professional service to a wide variety of organizations, including the WVU Faculty Senate and Council for Women's Concerns, the West Virginia Humanities Council, and the National Women's Studies Association. She has received many honors for her teaching and commitment to social justice. Indeed, Dr. Stitzel's contributions to WVU and the state of West Virginia go far beyond her role as \"founding mother\" of women's studies in the state. Her outstanding teaching and her long-standing and outspoken advocacy for women and minorities on campus, in the community, and the state made her a role model for countless women and men who, in turn, were empowered by her support to be advocates for social justice. Dr. Stitzel's impact on the lives of these individuals is clear in the extraordinary retirement ceremony, otherwise known as the \"Judithon,\" that the Center for Women's Studies held for her in the fall of 1998. The West Virginia and Regional History Collection includes a copy of the program and a videotape of this event, which researchers should consult when using these papers.","In addition, Dr. Stitzel has kept a journal for many years. She has turned one of her journals into a book about the year after her husband's death, entitled  Field Notes From Grief: The First Year .","For more details on Dr. Stitzel's professional career, please ask a curator for her curriculum vitae.","These records document the professional life of Judith Gold Stitzel, professor of English and Women's Studies at West Virginia University. They include materials relative to her own education, her career at West Virginia University, her public and professional service, her publications and speeches, and her many awards and honors. These papers also detail the development of Women's Studies as part of the curriculum at West Virginia University. ","The collection includes extensive incoming and outgoing correspondence files that Dr. Stitzel maintained, some of which she arranged by correspondent and some of which she arranged by date, depending on the extent of her correspondence with an individual. These files include official correspondence and some personal correspondence. The collection also includes many letters of recommendation which were written for students, colleagues, and friends, as well as letters of support that she wrote for colleagues going through the promotion and tenure process at West Virginia University. These letters attest to the role that Dr. Stitzel played as advisor, counselor, and friend to current and former students, staff, and faculty at WVU, and elsewhere, throughout her career.","Dr. Stitzel's papers also include syllabi and course materials for a wide variety of courses, from introductory English composition to the senior capstone course in women's studies, as well as files that she kept on topics of current interest to her, with her comments on these topics.","Series 1.

Her outstanding teaching and her long-standing and outspoken advocacy for women and minorities on campus, in the community, and the state made her a role model for countless women and men who, in turn, were empowered by her support to be advocates for social justice. Dr. Stitzel's impact on the lives of these individuals is clear in the extraordinary retirement ceremony, otherwise known as the \"Judithon,\" that the Center for Women's Studies held for her in the fall of 1998. The West Virginia and Regional History Collection includes a copy of the program and a videotape of this event, which researchers should consult when using these papers.","In addition, Dr. Stitzel has kept a journal for many years. She has turned one of her journals into a book about the year after her husband's death, entitled  Field Notes From Grief: The First Year .","For more details on Dr. Stitzel's professional career, please ask a curator for her curriculum vitae."],"prefercite_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003e[Description and date of item], [Box/folder number], Judith Stitzel Papers, A\u0026amp;M 5039, West Virginia and Regional History Center, West Virginia University Libraries, Morgantown, West Virginia.\u003c/p\u003e"],"prefercite_tesim":["[Description and date of item], [Box/folder number], Judith Stitzel Papers, A\u0026M 5039, West Virginia and Regional History Center, West Virginia University Libraries, Morgantown, West Virginia."],"scopecontent_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThese records document the professional life of Judith Gold Stitzel, professor of English and Women's Studies at West Virginia University.

Kemp, a West Virginia University civil engineering professor and an internationally renowned covered bridge expert, to restore the Philippi Covered Bridge, which was severely damaged by fire in 1989. He was selected for the restoration by then Governor Gaston Caperton, who also hoped for the restoration of West Virginia's other seventeen covered bridges.  When Caperton's original plans did not come to pass, WVU Provost and Vice President of Academic Affairs and Research William E. Vehse and Dr. Kemp created the idea of an institute to oversee the restoration of the Philippi Covered Bridge and the other seventeen bridges and its funding.  \n \nConcurrent with the announced Philippi Covered Bridge restoration, a grass roots effort was begun to save the High Gate Carriage House. James E. Watson, son of pioneer coal baron James Otis Watson, built the High Gate Mansion and Carriage House in 1910-1913. In the mid-1950s, the Ross Funeral Home purchased the mansion and opened a mortuary in the house. By the late 1980s, the carriage house, formerly a nursing home, was now unused. In the spring of 1989, a national fast-food chain announced plans to purchase and demolish the High Gate Carriage House, replacing it with a drive-in restaurant. These plans were met with local opposition and led to the formation of the Friends of High Gate, a non-profit organization to save the carriage house. US Representative Alan Mollohan, who lived nearby, was interested in historic preservation, but more importantly desired to see the historic carriage house saved and preserved. The friends group received congressional aid from Mollohan's office and were able to purchase and save the property from development. \n \nAt this time, Mollohan approached Kemp about the preservation of the High Gate Carriage House property. Kemp undoubtably suggested that the High Gate Carriage House needed to be recorded to HABS Standards as one of the first steps in its preservation but would require funding. The documentation of High Gate Carriage House led to the initial federal funding of the IHTIA. \n \nThe Institute for the History of Technology and Industrial Archaeology was founded by an act of the United States Congress in 1989. Under its founding act, IHTIA was authorized to document, preserve, and interpret historically significant sites relating to the nation's industrial engineering and technology history, but it was also established as advisory group to Congress. In the late 1980s, industrial sites, such as Cambria Irons Works in Johnstown, Pennsylvania became units of the National Park Service, and many other industrial sites were being proposed. The IHTIA was created partially to advise Congress on which of these proposed parks should be included in the National Parks system. The industrial site evaluation charge was never fully realized, and IHTIA focused on its larger mission of the history of technology and industrial archaeology.  The IHTIA was part of West Virginia University's Eberly College of Arts and Sciences.\n \nAt first, IHTIA's federal funding was very strong. This funding was complimented by an abundance of sponsored research projects and the future seemed bright. By the mid-1990s, however, things began to change with Vice President Al Gore's changes to government, when the IHTIA's budget became targeted as \"wasteful federal spending.\" As a result, the IHTIA budget became part of HAER's budget. This was coupled with the Historic American Engineering Record's (HAER; a partial funding source for IHTIA) declining funding, which led to a portion of IHTIA's budget being appropriated by HAER. Following the 2001 September 11 attacks, funding dried up for Cultural Resource Management projects. During the early 2000s, the declining federal budget and the dearth of sponsored work, along with inadequate leadership, plagued IHTIA until it finally closed its doors in circa 2006.

Kemp, a West Virginia University civil engineering professor and an internationally renowned covered bridge expert, to restore the Philippi Covered Bridge, which was severely damaged by fire in 1989. He was selected for the restoration by then Governor Gaston Caperton, who also hoped for the restoration of West Virginia's other seventeen covered bridges.  When Caperton's original plans did not come to pass, WVU Provost and Vice President of Academic Affairs and Research William E. Vehse and Dr. Kemp created the idea of an institute to oversee the restoration of the Philippi Covered Bridge and the other seventeen bridges and its funding.  \n \nConcurrent with the announced Philippi Covered Bridge restoration, a grass roots effort was begun to save the High Gate Carriage House. James E. Watson, son of pioneer coal baron James Otis Watson, built the High Gate Mansion and Carriage House in 1910-1913. In the mid-1950s, the Ross Funeral Home purchased the mansion and opened a mortuary in the house. By the late 1980s, the carriage house, formerly a nursing home, was now unused. In the spring of 1989, a national fast-food chain announced plans to purchase and demolish the High Gate Carriage House, replacing it with a drive-in restaurant. These plans were met with local opposition and led to the formation of the Friends of High Gate, a non-profit organization to save the carriage house. US Representative Alan Mollohan, who lived nearby, was interested in historic preservation, but more importantly desired to see the historic carriage house saved and preserved. The friends group received congressional aid from Mollohan's office and were able to purchase and save the property from development. \n \nAt this time, Mollohan approached Kemp about the preservation of the High Gate Carriage House property. Kemp undoubtably suggested that the High Gate Carriage House needed to be recorded to HABS Standards as one of the first steps in its preservation but would require funding. The documentation of High Gate Carriage House led to the initial federal funding of the IHTIA. \n \nThe Institute for the History of Technology and Industrial Archaeology was founded by an act of the United States Congress in 1989. Under its founding act, IHTIA was authorized to document, preserve, and interpret historically significant sites relating to the nation's industrial engineering and technology history, but it was also established as advisory group to Congress. In the late 1980s, industrial sites, such as Cambria Irons Works in Johnstown, Pennsylvania became units of the National Park Service, and many other industrial sites were being proposed. The IHTIA was created partially to advise Congress on which of these proposed parks should be included in the National Parks system. The industrial site evaluation charge was never fully realized, and IHTIA focused on its larger mission of the history of technology and industrial archaeology.  The IHTIA was part of West Virginia University's Eberly College of Arts and Sciences.\n \nAt first, IHTIA's federal funding was very strong. This funding was complimented by an abundance of sponsored research projects and the future seemed bright. By the mid-1990s, however, things began to change with Vice President Al Gore's changes to government, when the IHTIA's budget became targeted as \"wasteful federal spending.\" As a result, the IHTIA budget became part of HAER's budget. This was coupled with the Historic American Engineering Record's (HAER; a partial funding source for IHTIA) declining funding, which led to a portion of IHTIA's budget being appropriated by HAER. Following the 2001 September 11 attacks, funding dried up for Cultural Resource Management projects. During the early 2000s, the declining federal budget and the dearth of sponsored work, along with inadequate leadership, plagued IHTIA until it finally closed its doors in circa 2006. \u003c/p\u003e\n","\u003cp\u003eSources:  \nAuthors recollections.

Faculty reviews are closed till 2032; the rest of the collection is open for research.","Jeffrey A. Mann, poet, memoirist, fiction writer, and creative writing professor at Virginia Polytechnic Institute (Virginia Tech), was born in Clifton Forge, Virginia in 1959 to Perry and Clara Mann. He spent most of his early life in Hinton, West Virginia, where he left in 1977 to attend West Virginia University. ","At WVU Mann received a B.A. in English (magna cum laude) and a B.S. in forestry (magna cum laude) in 1981.  He received his M.A. in English in 1984 from West Virginia University.  Mann's poems written while at WVU describe his life in Morgantown as a student and a gay man. ","After graduation Mann taught briefly at George Washington University in Washington, D.C. (1985), but he missed mountain life so returned to WVU to teach English, 1987-1989. In 1989 he was asked to teach Introduction to Appalachian Studies at Virginia Tech where he eventually became a full time tenured faculty member in the English Department.","Mann continues to write, penning 6 books of poetry, three volumes of short fiction, a book of poetry and memoir, and three collections of essays.  Through his writing Mann explores the themes of gay sexuality, Appalachia, and the rites of manhood. His most recent project is as co-editor of  LGBTQ Fiction and Poetry from Appalachia , 2019.  Mann's poems and novels have received wide acclaim and numerous awards including two Lambda Awards and four National Leather Association-International literary awards.","[Extracted from various sources including Mann's autobiographical work  Loving Mountains, Loving Men ]","Papers of Jeff Mann, a West Virginia University alumnus, author, and Virginia Tech (VT) English professor.  The collection chronicles Mann's prolific writing of predominantly poetry beginning with early poems from his time at WVU in Morgantown in the 1980s.  In addition to over 300 poems, the collection includes working manuscripts of unpublished works, serial publications containing his poetry and other published works including novels, short stories, and essays.  Publicity materials are represented by newspaper articles, posters and flyers, book catalogs, and writers' blurbs for his books. Other materials include correspondence and contracts with publishers, some personal correspondence, some Virginia Tech Department of English publications and faculty evaluations of Mann.","Mann's writing is represented by working manuscripts, topic ideas and background research, rough outlines, publishers' proofs, edited drafts of all genres of his writing, and final published versions.  In addition to a large number of poems, it also includes essays, novels, short stories, and a few speeches, all related to Mann's experience as a gay man in Appalachia.","Most of the poems (boxes 2, 4-5) are typed, but the earlier ones, 1982-1986, are handwritten manuscripts.  The typed poems are sorted by Mann alphabetically, primarily into reused individual folders. Some have handwritten edits by Mann, some with comments by others from when the poems were workshopped, and some with edits from friends and family. Some poems also come with rough early ideas; words; and research on the topic, such as the Civil War.  The poems often reflect major Appalachian themes such as love of place and the beauty and culture of the mountains. Some are set in West Virginia locales and towns including Morgantown, Beckley, and Hinton.  Poems by authors other than Mann include ones written about him and poems by Robin Mullen.","Being a gay man in Appalachia is a major theme in Mann's essays, short stories, and novels; many are homoerotic.  Working manuscripts sometime with handwritten notes include  Edge ,  A History of Barbed Wire ,  Loving Mountains, Loving Men ,  Bones Washed in Wine , and others. Mann was also interested in Norse mythology and neopaganism which is reflected in some of his stories and essays.","Scattered throughout the collection are promotional materials for Mann's verse and prose which include posters for appearances and readings; newspaper and magazine articles about Mann; interviews; book reviews; blurbs in praise of specific books; and catalogs for gay books, such as the insightoutbooks catalog which includes Mann's books. \nThe majority of the correspondence in the collection is with publishers (mostly in boxes 2 and 5) and includes contracts and agreements, galley proofs of manuscripts and corrections, author's blurbs, cover art, and royalty check stubs. Publishers include Gival Press, Haworth Press, L.B. Taurus, Harrington Park Press, Alyson Books, Lethe Press, various university presses including West Virginia University and Ohio University, and more.  Other business matters include acceptance and rejection letters for faculty positions at various universities, acceptance and rejection letters for submitted poems, invitations to submit poems, and poetry contest wins and losses. Additional correspondence deals with other business matters including a consulting contract with Edvantia, and requests for other authors' permissions to use their materials in books.","There is scant personal correspondence which includes letters from his father, Perry; his mother; and his sister, Amy, who provided feedback on poems.  There are also some cards and letters from friends and some thank you cards from students and others.  Two letters from friends (box 2) recount their coming out as gay experiences.  Print emails (box 3) sent to Virginia Tech alumni chapter presidents pertain to a challenge from an alumnus who objected to Mann as an instructor and questions giving to Virginia Tech. In addition to the original email to the alumni, the stream includes correspondence from those supportive and encouraging to Mann.","Other materials from Virginia Tech include comments and formal evaluations on Mann's performance as an English Department faculty member, his promotion to tenure, and letters of praise for Mann's teaching (predominantly box 3).  The collection also includes other VT publications such as the VT English Department newsletter and others (also predominantly box 3).","There are a few photographs: one of Mann eating a donut while at West Virginia University in the 1980s (box 8), some with friends (box 1), and a formal head shot with a humorous enclosure (box 2).","The Addendum of 2022/09/02 includes both manuscripts of unpublished works as well as pubished poems in serial publications and short stories in anthologies.  Significantly, Mann's  Masters Degree thesis (1984) and some earlier writings for college course work are included.

Additional correspondence deals with other business matters including a consulting contract with Edvantia, and requests for other authors' permissions to use their materials in books.","There is scant personal correspondence which includes letters from his father, Perry; his mother; and his sister, Amy, who provided feedback on poems.  There are also some cards and letters from friends and some thank you cards from students and others.  Two letters from friends (box 2) recount their coming out as gay experiences.  Print emails (box 3) sent to Virginia Tech alumni chapter presidents pertain to a challenge from an alumnus who objected to Mann as an instructor and questions giving to Virginia Tech. In addition to the original email to the alumni, the stream includes correspondence from those supportive and encouraging to Mann.","Other materials from Virginia Tech include comments and formal evaluations on Mann's performance as an English Department faculty member, his promotion to tenure, and letters of praise for Mann's teaching (predominantly box 3).  The collection also includes other VT publications such as the VT English Department newsletter and others (also predominantly box 3).","There are a few photographs: one of Mann eating a donut while at West Virginia University in the 1980s (box 8), some with friends (box 1), and a formal head shot with a humorous enclosure (box 2).","The Addendum of 2022/09/02 includes both manuscripts of unpublished works as well as pubished poems in serial publications and short stories in anthologies.  Significantly, Mann's  Masters Degree thesis (1984) and some earlier writings for college course work are included.  Conference programs for those Mann regularly attended include the Appalachian Studies Conference and the National Teachers of English conference.","This collection is minimally processed."],"userestrict_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThe donor has retained the literary rights to the published and unpublished literary content in this collection; permission to publish or reproduce the literary materials in this collection is required from the copyright holder.
