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.

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. Weicker,\n Jr., United States Congressman and Senator from Connecticut, and Governor of\n Connecticut, 1834-2010 (Bulk 1942-1995), consisting of ca. 100,000 items (2119\n Hollinger boxes, 14 Oversized boxes, ca. 911.0 linear feet).","Series I contains Lowell Weicker's United States Senate Records.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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."],"scopecontent_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThis collection consists of the political and personal papers of Lowell P.

They are of historical interest because they\n provide a documentary cross section of Weicker's constituency during his tenure in\n the Senate. The files shed light on the economic, social, and political issues\n affecting Connecticut residents on an individual basis during the 1970s and 1980s.\n They also document the efforts of Weicker's staff to address and resolve matters\n brought to their attention by individual constituents.

Oral history interviews with Joanne Gabbin, Chervon Moore, David Owusu-Ansah, Jacqueline Walker, and Amanda Yankey were conducted over multiple sessions.","The interviews explore themes such as the historical development of Black Studies as an academic discipline, its impact on institutional policies, the role of Black spaces in fostering identity and community, and the intersection of scholarship and activism. Topics include curriculum development, advocacy for interdisciplinary programs, student-led initiatives, and collaborations with local Black communities. Subthemes address cultural memory preservation, intersectionality (race, gender, and class), critiques of diversity frameworks in academia, and the challenges of sustaining inclusive spaces within predominantly white institutions.","The copyright interests in this collection have not been transferred to the James Madison University Special Collections Library.

This series, containing photographs taken by Goodsell for use in his books, has been divided into two subseries: ","Subseries a: United States. The images in this subseries concern state capitol buildings, city halls, and municipal buildings within the United States. The folders within the subseries are arranged alphabetically by state name. For states which contain too many images to fit in one folder, the images have been divided among the following subcategories: state capitol exteriors, state capitol interiors, city halls, other government buildings and finally miscellaneous subjects. ","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. This series, however, has not been divided into subseries; the negatives for International Structures and Spaces are found at the end of the series. 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. Recipient of the Dwight Waldo award for outstanding lifetime contributions to the literature of public administration, Dr. Goodsell retired in 2002. ","The guide to the Charles Goodsell Collection by Special Collections and University Archives, Virginia Tech, is licensed under a CC0 ( https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc0/ ).","The processing, arrangement, and description of the Charles Goodsell Collection commenced in August 2004 and was completed in April 2005.","This collection contains the photographs of Charles T. Goodsell, a professor of public administration and public affairs at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University and director of the university's Center for Public Administration and Public Policy. ","The photographs in this collection were produced during Goodsell's work on two of his books: The Social Meaning of Civic Space: Studying Political Authority through Architecture and The American Statehouse . The images and published works, which examine the interplay of architecture and politics in the state capitols, city halls and municipal buildings of the United States, are of value to students and professionals in history, architecture and political science. Using analysis and photographs of exteriors and interiors, Goodsell demonstrates how the architectural elements embody political values and ideas. ","In addition to the photographs of public buildings in the United States, the collection also includes images of municipal buildings and landmarks in Australia, England, Belgium, Canada, France, Italy and New Zealand. The collection also contains negatives for the above-described photographs, as well as published copies of the two books. ","The copyright status of this collection is unknown.
