","This collection contains a scrapbook of black and white photogaphs and ephemera documenting Frederick Pilcher, Jr.'s life from the 1920s to the 1930s as a student at Virginia Polytechnical Institute (VPI), known as Virginia Tech, and the University of Virginia Medical School. Included are newspaper clippings, tickets to sporting events, commencement announcements, invitations, report cards, certificate of admittance to the medical board's examination, alumni ribbons, cards and correspondence regarding advancements for his professional work. The scrapbook also depicts his travels on the railway to the Pacific Northwest where he had an internship in Seattle's Virginia Mason Clinic, and a steamship vacation to Alaska. The report cards in the scrapbook suggest Pilcher attended VPI as an undergraduate and then the University of Virginia Medical School.","\nAmid the memorabilia and photographs in the scrapbook, is a photograph of medical student Pilcher posing with an African American corpse from the medical school. There is a caption below the photograph that is racially offensive. The photograph is also disturbing content that users may not want to view.","Included are newspaper clippings describing how Pilcher and his cousin took two bodies from the University's medical school to his home in Chesterfield County.  Two months later the two bodies were found on the creek banks near Pilcher's residence by a 15 year-old boy who was fishing and called the police. Pilcher and his cousin were not prosecuted and Pilcher was allowed to continue medical school.","University of Virginia Medical School often used African American corpses for teaching medical students. The students were known to pose with them for photographs. Cadavers were often called \"subjects\" who were \"... primarily the bodies of deceased African-Americans.\" Since it was difficult to obtain cadavers legally in the twentieth century, \"...professors sought out grave robbers who targeted African-Americans...\"   ","For more information:","Contested Spaces:Examining the Past, Present, and Forgotten at the University of Virginia.
