His father was a prominent American\n industrialist, who in course of his career served as President and Chief Executive\n Officer of E.R. Squibb and Sons, as President and Director of Northco Corporation,\n and as Chief Executive Officer of Bigelow Sanford Carpet Company. Lowell Sr. also\n had a distinguished military career, first serving as an intelligence officer with\n the United States Army Air Force in Europe during World War II, then later as the\n North Atlantic Treaty Organization's Assistant Secretary General for Production and\n Logistics during the early 1950s.","As a child, Lowell Weicker Jr. attended Buckley School in New York, New York and\n Culver Military Academy in Culver, Indiana. In 1949, he graduated from the\n Lawrenceville School, a preparatory school in Lawrenceville, New Jersey. He attended\n Yale University, where he developed an interest in politics, graduating in 1953 with\n a B.A. in Political Science. Weicker served as a first lieutenant in the United\n States Army from 1953 to 1955 and in the United States Army Reserve from 1959 to\n 1964. He graduated from the University of Virginia Law School in 1958, before moving\n to Greenwich, Connecticut where he practiced law.","Weicker began his political career as a Republican at the state and local level in\n Greenwich. He was elected as Greenwich's representative to the Connecticut General\n Assembly in 1962, subsequently winning re-election to this office in 1964 and 1966.\n While serving as State Representative, he was also elected as the Town of\n Greenwich's First Selectman in 1963 and 1965.","Weicker's congressional career began in 1968 when he was elected as a Republican to\n the United States House of Representatives from Connecticut's Fourth District.\n Serving a single term in the House, he focused much of his attention on two issues\n affecting Connecticut's Fourth District: urban renewal and transportation. In the\n area of urban renewal, Weicker successfully drafted and introduced an amendment to\n the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1969, which required one-for-one\n replacement of housing units demolished for urban renewal projects. He sponsored the\n Connecticut Transportation Act, which kept the bankrupt New Haven Railroad operating\n until it merged with the Penn Central Railroad. While serving in the House, Weicker\n supported the United States space program. He also advocated a bombing halt in the\n Vietnam War and urged the United States initiation of peace talks to end the\n conflict.","Weicker was elected to the United State Senate as a Republican in 1970 and was\n re-elected in 1976 and 1982. In his Senate career, Weicker served on a number of\n committees, including the Government Operations Committee, Committee on Commerce,\n Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, Committee on Labor and Human Resources,\n and Committee on Appropriations. He also served in a number of Senate leadership\n positions, including as Chairman of the Committee on Small Business, Chairman of the\n Subcommittee on Labor, Health, and Human Services, Chairman of the Subcommittee on\n the Handicapped, and Chairman of the Subcommittee on Energy Conservation and\n Supply.","Weicker rose to national prominence in 1973-1974 during the Senate's investigation of\n the Watergate scandal, in which he actively participated as a minority member of the\n Select Committee on Presidential Campaign Activities. In course of the committee's\n investigation, he emerged as a notable critic and opponent of the Nixon\n administration. It was also during Watergate that Weicker earned a reputation as a\n political maverick. For the remainder of his Senate career, he was frequently at\n odds with the Republican Party leadership during a time period in which the party\n was becoming increasingly conservative.","Weicker made a number of noteworthy legislative contributions during the 1970s.\n Continuing his interest in rail transportation, he supported the formation and\n funding of Amtrak and sponsored legislation providing federal assistance for the\n rehabilitation and revitalization of the American rail network. Starting with the\n 1973-1974 Energy Crisis, Weicker was a firm proponent of energy conservation. As a\n member of the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, he supported legislation\n designed to reduce American dependency upon foreign oil and encourage fossil fuel\n conservation. In the aftermath of Watergate, Weicker sponsored Watergate reform\n legislation, including bills pertaining to open government and intelligence\n oversight. From 1975 onward, Weicker was a noted advocate for conservation of the\n world's oceans. He helped draft and sponsored legislation pertaining to ocean\n conservation efforts, including the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act of 1978. In\n addition to his legislative work, Weicker was briefly a candidate for President in\n the 1980 campaign.","During the 1980s, Weicker frequently sparred with the Reagan administration and the\n conservative wing of the Republican Party over a number of policy issues. Continuing\n his strong interest in ocean conservation and research, as a member of the Committee\n on Appropriations, Weicker protected the National Oceanic and Atmospheric\n Administration's marine research funding from proposed Reagan administration budget\n cutbacks. Weicker and four other moderate Republican Senators known as “The Gang of\n Five” stopped proposed cutbacks and eliminations affecting a number of federal\n health and social programs, including the National Institutes of Health and the\n Legal Services Corporation. In 1985, as Chairman of the Committee on Small Business,\n he successfully opposed the Reagan administration's efforts to abolish the Small\n Business Administration. A strong supporter of AIDS research, Weicker played an\n instrumental role in obtaining federal funding for the Center of Disease Control's\n and National Institutes of Health's clinical trials of the anti-AIDS drug AZT.\n Throughout the 1980s, he actively opposed the Reagan administration and Republican\n Party conservatives on a number of constitutional issues, including abortion, civil\n rights, busing, and school prayer.","Weicker became a nationally-recognized advocate for the physically and mentally\n handicapped. He considered his work in the area of handicapped legislation the most\n significant achievements of his Senate tenure. Throughout the 1980s, as a member of\n the Committee on Appropriations and as Chairman of the Subcommittee on the\n Handicapped, Weicker protected federal disability programs from proposed budget cuts\n by the Reagan administration. His efforts included the reauthorization and increased\n funding of disability programs under the Education for All Handicapped Children Act\n and the Vocational Rehabilitation Act. As Chairman of the Subcommittee on the\n Handicapped, Weicker conducted a Senate investigation on the state of mental\n institutions in the United States, which uncovered numerous cases of neglect and\n abuse of mental patients. Largely in response to the findings of this investigation,\n he drafted and sponsored the Protection and Advocacy for the Mentally Ill Act, which\n was signed into law in 1985. In 1988, Weicker introduced the legislation that became\n the Americans with Disabilities Act, which was signed into law in 1990 after Weicker\n left the Senate.","Weicker was defeated by Democratic opponent Joseph Lieberman in 1988 and left office\n in January 1989. Following his departure from the Senate, Weicker taught\n constitutional law at George Washington University School of Law. He also served as\n Chief Executive Officer of the non-profit medical research advocacy group Research!\n America.","Weicker returned to politics as a third party candidate in the 1990 Connecticut\n gubernatorial election. Running as the candidate of A Connecticut Party, a third\n party he founded, Weicker won the governorship by defeating Republican John Rowland\n and Democrat Bruce Morrison. When Weicker took office in January 1991, he inherited\n a state budget deficit of $963 million. To address the financial shortfall, Weicker\n introduced a budget that included a state income tax of 6 percent, which was met\n with fierce opposition by both the voting public and the General Assembly. After a\n protracted political stalemate, which included Weicker's veto of three General\n Assembly budgets without an income tax and a three day interruption of state\n services, the General Assembly passed a budget that included a 4.5 percent state\n income tax on August 22, 1991. This state income tax took effect and the State of\n Connecticut ended the next three fiscal years with a budget surplus. For this\n accomplishment in the face of widespread opposition, he was awarded the John F.\n Kennedy Library Foundation's Profiles in Courage Award in 1992. Weicker did not seek\n re-election in 1994 and retired from the governorship in January 1995.","Weicker has three sons with his first wife Marie Louise “Bunny” Godfrey (1953-1977):\n Scott, Gray, and Brian, as well as two sons with his second wife Camille Butler\n (1977-1984): Sonny and Lowell III. In December 1984, Weicker married his third wife\n Claudia Testa, who has two sons: Mason and Andrew.","This collection consists of the political and personal papers of Lowell P.

The 1961 house he designed for his family in Blacksburg, Virginia, commonly called the \"Pagoda House,\" won awards from the AIA and is on the National Register of Historic Places. The Currie Papers include sets of blueprints and drawings for about 25 architectural projects and papers relating to his teaching. There are also files and reports on his work in Latin America, both on historic sites and improving housing for the poor.

Army from 1954 to 1956, he obtained master's and doctoral degrees at Harvard University. ","In 1961, Goodsell became an assistant professor of public administration at the University of Puerto Rico; he was a research associate at Princeton University from 1964 until 1966, when he became a professor of political science at Southern Illinois University. Goodsell joined the faculty of Virginia Tech in 1978 as a professor of public administration and public affairs and served as director of the university's Center for Public Administration and Policy. ","Goodsell's numerous publications range beyond political science and public administration into the fields of architecture, economics, history, sociology, and Latin American studies. He is the author of The Social Meaning of Civic Space: Studying Political Authority through Architecture ; The American Statehouse: Interpreting Democracy's Temples ; The Case for Bureaucracy: A Public Administration Polemic ; American Corporations and Peruvian Politics ; and Administration of a Revolution: Executive Reform in Puerto Rico under Governor Tugwell, 1941-1946 and many articles published in scholarly journals, as well as the editor of The Public Encounter: Where State and Citizen Meet .

","Subseries b: International Structures and Spaces. These photographs of landmarks and municipal buildings in Australia, New Zealand, Belgium, Canada, France, England, Italy and the United States are arranged alphabetically by name of country. ","Series II: Negatives. Located here are negatives for the photographs found in Series I. Like the images in Series I, the negatives are arranged alphabetically by state name.

Some photographs in Series I are not represented by a corresponding negative in this series. ","Series III: Published Works. This series contains copies of Goodsell's works The Social Meaning of Civic Space: Studying Political Authority through Architecture and The American Statehouse . ","Charles True Goodsell, professor emeritus and former director of the Center for Public Policy and Administration at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, was born in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The son of Charles T. and Francess Comee Goodsell, he earned a bachelor's degree at Kalamazoo College. After serving in the U. S. Army from 1954 to 1956, he obtained master's and doctoral degrees at Harvard University. ","In 1961, Goodsell became an assistant professor of public administration at the University of Puerto Rico; he was a research associate at Princeton University from 1964 until 1966, when he became a professor of political science at Southern Illinois University. Goodsell joined the faculty of Virginia Tech in 1978 as a professor of public administration and public affairs and served as director of the university's Center for Public Administration and Policy. ","Goodsell's numerous publications range beyond political science and public administration into the fields of architecture, economics, history, sociology, and Latin American studies. He is the author of The Social Meaning of Civic Space: Studying Political Authority through Architecture ; The American Statehouse: Interpreting Democracy's Temples ; The Case for Bureaucracy: A Public Administration Polemic ; American Corporations and Peruvian Politics ; and Administration of a Revolution: Executive Reform in Puerto Rico under Governor Tugwell, 1941-1946 and many articles published in scholarly journals, as well as the editor of The Public Encounter: Where State and Citizen Meet . He is a member of the American Political Science Association, the American Society for Public Administration, the Midwest Political Science Association, and the Southern Political Science Association.

Although rumblings of self-government began with the founding of the school in 1908, it took a fair amount of effort to bring this idea to fruition. The roots of the university's SGA derive from the student Honor Council which began in the 1909-1910 school year. Students involved in the Honor Council began to create an unofficial student government that although unable to act in an official capacity, was instrumental in helping to bring about student support for self-government. By 1914, a small group of students worked together to draft a constitution for the planned student government organization and presented this constitution to the faculty. After completing revisions suggested by the faculty, the constitution was presented and voted on by the entire student body February 25, 1915 and as a result, the Student Association of the State Normal School at Harrisonburg was established. This first iteration of the organization required that the entire student body act as a member. Additionally, the Honor Committee was converted into the first Executive Board. This Executive Board included three officers (president, vice-president, and secretary), and several elected members of each class.","As the school and student population grew so did the organization and it eventually became unrealistic for the entire student body to act as members of the organization. Complications also arose within the organization with the introduction of full-time male students in 1946. At the time, it did not seem appropriate for men and women to govern students of the opposite sex. As a result, the male students decided to create their own self-government in 1950, labeling their organization the Men's Student Government Organization. The female students likewise formally relabeled their existing organization the Women's Student Government Association in 1953 to better distinguish the separation between the two groups; however, they rarely included this additional identifier. While the two groups worked together on many matters through the 50s and 60s, the organizations formally combine in 1970, creating the current manifestation of the Student Government Association. ","As of 2015, the SGA at JMU is made up of appointed members on the Executive Staff, Representatives, and At-Large Senators. Elected members include Class Council Senators, College Senators, and Area Residence Senators. The mission: The Student Government Association of James Madison University is an organization dedicated to collaborating with all members of its community to advocate for student opinion, while fostering a proactive, inclusive environment.","After reviewing the material in all accessions, about 2 linear feet of material was removed from one of the 2005 accessions.

His father was a prominent American\n industrialist, who in course of his career served as President and Chief Executive\n Officer of E.R. Squibb and Sons, as President and Director of Northco Corporation,\n and as Chief Executive Officer of Bigelow Sanford Carpet Company. Lowell Sr. also\n had a distinguished military career, first serving as an intelligence officer with\n the United States Army Air Force in Europe during World War II, then later as the\n North Atlantic Treaty Organization's Assistant Secretary General for Production and\n Logistics during the early 1950s.","As a child, Lowell Weicker Jr. attended Buckley School in New York, New York and\n Culver Military Academy in Culver, Indiana. In 1949, he graduated from the\n Lawrenceville School, a preparatory school in Lawrenceville, New Jersey. He attended\n Yale University, where he developed an interest in politics, graduating in 1953 with\n a B.A. in Political Science. Weicker served as a first lieutenant in the United\n States Army from 1953 to 1955 and in the United States Army Reserve from 1959 to\n 1964. He graduated from the University of Virginia Law School in 1958, before moving\n to Greenwich, Connecticut where he practiced law.","Weicker began his political career as a Republican at the state and local level in\n Greenwich. He was elected as Greenwich's representative to the Connecticut General\n Assembly in 1962, subsequently winning re-election to this office in 1964 and 1966.\n While serving as State Representative, he was also elected as the Town of\n Greenwich's First Selectman in 1963 and 1965.","Weicker's congressional career began in 1968 when he was elected as a Republican to\n the United States House of Representatives from Connecticut's Fourth District.\n Serving a single term in the House, he focused much of his attention on two issues\n affecting Connecticut's Fourth District: urban renewal and transportation. In the\n area of urban renewal, Weicker successfully drafted and introduced an amendment to\n the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1969, which required one-for-one\n replacement of housing units demolished for urban renewal projects. He sponsored the\n Connecticut Transportation Act, which kept the bankrupt New Haven Railroad operating\n until it merged with the Penn Central Railroad. While serving in the House, Weicker\n supported the United States space program. He also advocated a bombing halt in the\n Vietnam War and urged the United States initiation of peace talks to end the\n conflict.","Weicker was elected to the United State Senate as a Republican in 1970 and was\n re-elected in 1976 and 1982. In his Senate career, Weicker served on a number of\n committees, including the Government Operations Committee, Committee on Commerce,\n Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, Committee on Labor and Human Resources,\n and Committee on Appropriations. He also served in a number of Senate leadership\n positions, including as Chairman of the Committee on Small Business, Chairman of the\n Subcommittee on Labor, Health, and Human Services, Chairman of the Subcommittee on\n the Handicapped, and Chairman of the Subcommittee on Energy Conservation and\n Supply.","Weicker rose to national prominence in 1973-1974 during the Senate's investigation of\n the Watergate scandal, in which he actively participated as a minority member of the\n Select Committee on Presidential Campaign Activities. In course of the committee's\n investigation, he emerged as a notable critic and opponent of the Nixon\n administration. It was also during Watergate that Weicker earned a reputation as a\n political maverick. For the remainder of his Senate career, he was frequently at\n odds with the Republican Party leadership during a time period in which the party\n was becoming increasingly conservative.","Weicker made a number of noteworthy legislative contributions during the 1970s.\n Continuing his interest in rail transportation, he supported the formation and\n funding of Amtrak and sponsored legislation providing federal assistance for the\n rehabilitation and revitalization of the American rail network. Starting with the\n 1973-1974 Energy Crisis, Weicker was a firm proponent of energy conservation. As a\n member of the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, he supported legislation\n designed to reduce American dependency upon foreign oil and encourage fossil fuel\n conservation. In the aftermath of Watergate, Weicker sponsored Watergate reform\n legislation, including bills pertaining to open government and intelligence\n oversight. From 1975 onward, Weicker was a noted advocate for conservation of the\n world's oceans. He helped draft and sponsored legislation pertaining to ocean\n conservation efforts, including the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act of 1978. In\n addition to his legislative work, Weicker was briefly a candidate for President in\n the 1980 campaign.","During the 1980s, Weicker frequently sparred with the Reagan administration and the\n conservative wing of the Republican Party over a number of policy issues. Continuing\n his strong interest in ocean conservation and research, as a member of the Committee\n on Appropriations, Weicker protected the National Oceanic and Atmospheric\n Administration's marine research funding from proposed Reagan administration budget\n cutbacks. Weicker and four other moderate Republican Senators known as “The Gang of\n Five” stopped proposed cutbacks and eliminations affecting a number of federal\n health and social programs, including the National Institutes of Health and the\n Legal Services Corporation. In 1985, as Chairman of the Committee on Small Business,\n he successfully opposed the Reagan administration's efforts to abolish the Small\n Business Administration. A strong supporter of AIDS research, Weicker played an\n instrumental role in obtaining federal funding for the Center of Disease Control's\n and National Institutes of Health's clinical trials of the anti-AIDS drug AZT.\n Throughout the 1980s, he actively opposed the Reagan administration and Republican\n Party conservatives on a number of constitutional issues, including abortion, civil\n rights, busing, and school prayer.","Weicker became a nationally-recognized advocate for the physically and mentally\n handicapped. He considered his work in the area of handicapped legislation the most\n significant achievements of his Senate tenure. Throughout the 1980s, as a member of\n the Committee on Appropriations and as Chairman of the Subcommittee on the\n Handicapped, Weicker protected federal disability programs from proposed budget cuts\n by the Reagan administration. His efforts included the reauthorization and increased\n funding of disability programs under the Education for All Handicapped Children Act\n and the Vocational Rehabilitation Act. As Chairman of the Subcommittee on the\n Handicapped, Weicker conducted a Senate investigation on the state of mental\n institutions in the United States, which uncovered numerous cases of neglect and\n abuse of mental patients. Largely in response to the findings of this investigation,\n he drafted and sponsored the Protection and Advocacy for the Mentally Ill Act, which\n was signed into law in 1985. In 1988, Weicker introduced the legislation that became\n the Americans with Disabilities Act, which was signed into law in 1990 after Weicker\n left the Senate.","Weicker was defeated by Democratic opponent Joseph Lieberman in 1988 and left office\n in January 1989. Following his departure from the Senate, Weicker taught\n constitutional law at George Washington University School of Law. He also served as\n Chief Executive Officer of the non-profit medical research advocacy group Research!\n America.","Weicker returned to politics as a third party candidate in the 1990 Connecticut\n gubernatorial election. Running as the candidate of A Connecticut Party, a third\n party he founded, Weicker won the governorship by defeating Republican John Rowland\n and Democrat Bruce Morrison. When Weicker took office in January 1991, he inherited\n a state budget deficit of $963 million. To address the financial shortfall, Weicker\n introduced a budget that included a state income tax of 6 percent, which was met\n with fierce opposition by both the voting public and the General Assembly. After a\n protracted political stalemate, which included Weicker's veto of three General\n Assembly budgets without an income tax and a three day interruption of state\n services, the General Assembly passed a budget that included a 4.5 percent state\n income tax on August 22, 1991. This state income tax took effect and the State of\n Connecticut ended the next three fiscal years with a budget surplus. For this\n accomplishment in the face of widespread opposition, he was awarded the John F.\n Kennedy Library Foundation's Profiles in Courage Award in 1992. Weicker did not seek\n re-election in 1994 and retired from the governorship in January 1995.","Weicker has three sons with his first wife Marie Louise “Bunny” Godfrey (1953-1977):\n Scott, Gray, and Brian, as well as two sons with his second wife Camille Butler\n (1977-1984): Sonny and Lowell III. In December 1984, Weicker married his third wife\n Claudia Testa, who has two sons: Mason and Andrew.","This collection consists of the political and personal papers of Lowell P.
