Anderson, Jr. President, 1983-2006 Mary Washington College (1983-2004) University of Mary Washington (2004-2006)","Dr. William M. Anderson, Jr. was born January 15, 1942 in South Boston. As a young man, besides politics, his main interests were music and sports. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Virginia Commonwealth University, a master's degree in public administration from West Virginia University College of Graduate Studies, and a doctorate in higher education from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. While studying at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, he became acquainted with Prince Woodward, a life-long mentor and eventual President of Mary Washington College, and he also met his future wife, Jane Neale, with whom he had three children. His entire professional career was devoted to higher education, beginning in 1967 when he worked as coordinator of academic programs and enrollment research for the Virginia State Council of Higher Education. Then for four years he served as director of research and planning for the West Virginia Board of Regents. In 1976 he was named Executive Vice President at Mary Washington College before becoming President in 1983.","When Dr. Anderson was appointed president of Mary Washington College in 1983, he was the youngest president of any of Virginia's four-year colleges and universities. Twenty-three years later in 2006, he retired as the longest-serving president of any public institution in Virginia. Among his major achievements at Mary Washington was the creation of the College of Graduate and Professional Studies in Stafford County, which prompted the institution's attainment of university status and an ensuing name change to the University of Mary Washington in 2004.","During his tenure, more than $120 million of capital improvements were made to the University's two campuses, including the addition of a new library, a $14 million science center, a student center, an alumni center, an art gallery, an enclosed campus walk, four new residence halls, and an apartment complex. New cultural offerings for the University and the surrounding community were added during Dr. Anderson's tenure, including programs such as the Fredericksburg Forum, the Great Lives lecture series, and the University of Mary Washington-Community Symphony Orchestra's Celebrity Series. Under Dr. Anderson's administration, the University completed the installation of a campus-wide fiber-optic telecommunications network that brought state-of-the-art data, telephone, and cable service to every classroom, office, and residence hall on campus. Also the intercollegiate athletic program was expanded and a Community Outreach and Resources program was created to promote student volunteerism.","Particularly noteworthy in terms of outreach were Dr. Anderson's efforts to create beneficial ties to the local business community. He was an active member of the Chamber of Commerce, serving at its president, and at his suggestion the University started sponsoring a Business Leaders Breakfast with a visiting Executive in Residence. In addition, during his tenure the University created a Small Business Development Center to support economic development in the area by generating innovative business ideas.","During Dr. Anderson's tenure, and largely because of his energy and efforts, Mary Washington's endowment increased substantially from $1.3 million to $24.5 million, thus contributing not only to enhanced physical facilities, but also to expanded opportunities for faculty development. The result of his work was a significant elevation of Mary Washington's stature to the point of national recognition as a liberal arts and sciences college of outstanding quality, which ranked within the top ten percent nationally in terms of admissions selectivity.","On the occasion of his retirement, numerous individuals and organizations expressed their sincere appreciation for Dr. Anderson's record of achievement at the University of Mary Washington. The Celebrity Concert series at Mary Washington was renamed the William M. Anderson, Jr., Celebrity Concert Series in honor of the support that Dr. Anderson gave to the orchestra. In addition, the General Assembly of Virginia honored Dr. Anderson with a resolution recognizing him \"for his long and exceptional service to the students, faculty, staff and alumni of the University of Mary Washington and, moreover, to the people of the Commonwealth of Virginia.\" The University of Mary Washington Board of Visitors unanimously approved a resolution naming the school's planned extension to the athletic building the Anderson Convocation Center. During his last commencement ceremony as president, Dr. Anderson was awarded the status of president emeritus and an honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters degree. Also he was presented with the Washington Medallion, which recognizes extraordinary service to the University.","This collection is arranged into twenty-four main series, in thirty-eight record storage boxes for a total of about 16 linear feet. The first series is senior staff papers from the President's Office during Dr. Anderson's administration. Other series cover commencement records, honor convocation lists, campus buildings and grounds records, annual reports, state of Virginia papers, national educational papers, various university program documents, Southern educational materials, financial records and documents, student affairs materials, special events materials, inauguration papers, Board of Visitors materials, presidential correspondence, various academic committee papers, community relations documents, faculty affairs materials, papers on conferences and workshops, the President's Book Club materials, Dr. Anderson's speeches, and the last series is reserved for miscellaneous materials.","Dr. Anderson and his office compiled or retained this collection, which encompasses various papers, documents and correspondence from throughout his tenure at Mary Washington, mostly as president. The bulk of the items in the collection were gathered from the 1980s to the 1990s. A few of the papers go back as early as 1974, to the years before Dr. Anderson's presidency at Mary Washington. Two folders date to 1969. Among the documents and records are various memos, plans, notes, programs, design sketches, presidential remarks, speeches, invitations, publications, a few cassette tapes, a CD-ROM and some photographs, as well as letters and reports.","University of Mary Washington Special Collections and University Archives","University of Mary Washington.

Anderson, Jr. was born January 15, 1942 in South Boston. As a young\n                man, besides politics, his main interests were music and sports. He earned a\n                Bachelor of Science degree from Virginia Commonwealth University, a master's degree\n                in public administration from West Virginia University College of Graduate Studies,\n                and a doctorate in higher education from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State\n                University. While studying at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, he\n                became acquainted with Prince Woodward, a life-long mentor and eventual President of\n                Mary Washington College, and he also met his future wife, Jane Neale, with whom he\n                had three children. His entire professional career was devoted to higher education,\n                beginning in 1967 when he worked as coordinator of academic programs and enrollment\n                research for the Virginia State Council of Higher Education. Then for four years he\n                served as director of research and planning for the West Virginia Board of Regents.\n                In 1976 he was named Executive Vice President at Mary Washington College before\n                becoming President in 1983.\n            ","When Dr. Anderson was appointed president of Mary Washington College in 1983, he was\n                the youngest president of any of Virginia's four-year colleges and universities.\n                Twenty-three years later in 2006, he retired as the longest-serving president of any\n                public institution in Virginia. Among his major achievements at Mary Washington was\n                the creation of the College of Graduate and Professional Studies in Stafford County,\n                which prompted the institution's attainment of university status and an ensuing name\n                change to the University of Mary Washington in 2004.\n            ","During his tenure, more than $120 million of capital improvements were made to the\n                University's two campuses, including the addition of a new library, a $14 million\n                science center, a student center, an alumni center, an art gallery, an enclosed\n                campus walk, four new residence halls, and an apartment complex. New cultural\n                offerings for the University and the surrounding community were added during Dr.\n                Anderson's tenure, including programs such as the Fredericksburg Forum, the Great\n                Lives lecture series, and the University of Mary Washington-Community Symphony\n                Orchestra's Celebrity Series. Under Dr. Anderson's administration, the University\n                completed the installation of a campus-wide fiber-optic telecommunications network\n                that brought state-of-the-art data, telephone, and cable service to every classroom,\n                office, and residence hall on campus. Also the intercollegiate athletic program was\n                expanded and a Community Outreach and Resources program was created to promote\n                student volunteerism.\n            ","Particularly noteworthy in terms of outreach were Dr. Anderson's efforts to create\n                beneficial ties to the local business community. He was an active member of the\n                Chamber of Commerce, serving at its president, and at his suggestion the University\n                started sponsoring a Business Leaders Breakfast with a visiting Executive in\n                Residence. In addition, during his tenure the University created a Small Business\n                Development Center to support economic development in the area by generating\n                innovative business ideas.\n            ","During Dr. Anderson's tenure, and largely because of his energy and efforts, Mary\n                Washington's endowment increased substantially from $1.3 million to $24.5 million,\n                thus contributing not only to enhanced physical facilities, but also to expanded\n                opportunities for faculty development. The result of his work was a significant\n                elevation of Mary Washington's stature to the point of national recognition as a\n                liberal arts and sciences college of outstanding quality, which ranked within the\n                top ten percent nationally in terms of admissions selectivity.\n            ","On the occasion of his retirement, numerous individuals and organizations expressed\n                their sincere appreciation for Dr. Anderson's record of achievement at the\n                University of Mary Washington. The Celebrity Concert series at Mary Washington was\n                renamed the William M. Anderson, Jr., Celebrity Concert Series in honor of the\n                support that Dr. Anderson gave to the orchestra. In addition, the General Assembly\n                of Virginia honored Dr. Anderson with a resolution recognizing him \"for his long and\n                exceptional service to the students, faculty, staff and alumni of the University of\n                Mary Washington and, moreover, to the people of the Commonwealth of Virginia.” The\n                University of Mary Washington Board of Visitors unanimously approved a resolution\n                naming the school's planned extension to the athletic building the Anderson\n                Convocation Center. During his last commencement ceremony as president, Dr. Anderson\n                was awarded the status of president emeritus and an honorary Doctorate of Humane\n                Letters degree. Also he was presented with the Washington Medallion, which\n                recognizes extraordinary service to the University.\n            ","This collection is arranged into twenty-four main series, in thirty-eight record\n                storage boxes for a total of about 16 linear feet. The first series is senior staff\n                papers from the President's Office during Dr. Anderson's administration.

Chandler, Jr.,\nPresident, 1919-1928\nFredericksburg State Normal and Industrial School for Women (1919-1924)\nFredericksburg State Teachers College (1925-1928)","Algernon Bertrand Chandler, Jr. was born in Bowling Green, Virginia on May 12, 1870. He attended the University of Virginia for both his undergraduate and graduate degrees. He then took and passed a course in law at Washington and Lee University, after which he practiced law in Atlanta with his brother. He made his return to academia after leaving law and began his teaching career at several private schools in Richmond: Locust Dale Academy, Nolleys School for Boys, and Miss Elletts School for Girls (later St. Catherines School). After leaving private education for public, he served as principal of Clifton Forge grade and high school, then returned to Richmond as principal of Leigh Public School for six years. During this time he gradually made his way to higher education by teaching evening English classes at the Virginia Mechanics Institute. He also served as a state school examiner and the secretary of that board.","In 1909, President Edward Russell hired Chandler as a professor of Latin at the new Normal School in Fredericksburg; he became Dean shortly thereafter, also serving as acting president during an illness late in President Russells term. Just under a month after President Russell resigned in May 1919, Chandler was elected to the replace him at a special meeting of the Normal School Board on June 7, 1919.","Chandler was a scholar as well as a teacher. He wrote the Virginia supplement to Fryes Grammar School Geography, which was a nationally used textbook. He also published in the magazine for the Virginia Teachers Association and served as the education editor of the Richmond News-Leader for three years.","In his nine years as president (1919-1928), Chandler faced many challenges that he met with great success. He doubled the size of the faculty, eliminated the high school curriculum to focus on college courses, and strengthened the student teaching program by establishing the College Heights High School on campus. Housed in the appropriately named Chandler Hall, this school enrolled more than 400 students from elementary through high school levels and provided practical teaching preparation.","Chandler also increased the size of the campus with a new student activities building, an open-air theater, and the Virginia Hall residence. Finally, he oversaw an institutional name change. In 1924, The Fredericksburg State Normal and Industrial School for Women became Fredericksburg State Teachers College.","Chandlers most significant challenge was due to a 1919 change in the mission of the Normal Schools as imposed by the State. In order to eliminate unnecessary duplication in programs, areas of specialization were assigned to each of the four state normal schools. While still concentrating on teacher education, Fredericksburg would focus on teaching music, industrial arts, and commercial subjects (business). It would also have the only four-year degree in commercial subjects.","In 1927, Chandler was elected to membership in Phi Beta Kappa at the University of Virginia. He was also one of the two Fredericksburg persons listed in Whos Who in America.","On September 10, 1928, at the age of 58, Chandler suffered a stroke and died while on his way home from the College. He is buried in Bowling Green. After his death, his wife Blanche sold their home to the College, and it served first as the infirmary and later was named Anne Fairfax Hall. As a testament to his commitment to higher education for women as well as an indication of his great fondness for the school that he served, Chandler willed $1,000.00 to the College to establish scholarships for the education of some worthy Junior or Senior students.

Chandler, Jr.,\nPresident, 1919-1928\nFredericksburg State Normal and Industrial School for Women (1919-1924)\nFredericksburg State Teachers College (1925-1928)","Algernon Bertrand Chandler, Jr. was born in Bowling Green, Virginia on May 12, 1870. He attended the University of Virginia for both his undergraduate and graduate degrees. He then took and passed a course in law at Washington and Lee University, after which he practiced law in Atlanta with his brother. He made his return to academia after leaving law and began his teaching career at several private schools in Richmond: Locust Dale Academy, Nolleys School for Boys, and Miss Elletts School for Girls (later St. Catherines School). After leaving private education for public, he served as principal of Clifton Forge grade and high school, then returned to Richmond as principal of Leigh Public School for six years. During this time he gradually made his way to higher education by teaching evening English classes at the Virginia Mechanics Institute. He also served as a state school examiner and the secretary of that board.","In 1909, President Edward Russell hired Chandler as a professor of Latin at the new Normal School in Fredericksburg; he became Dean shortly thereafter, also serving as acting president during an illness late in President Russells term. Just under a month after President Russell resigned in May 1919, Chandler was elected to the replace him at a special meeting of the Normal School Board on June 7, 1919.","Chandler was a scholar as well as a teacher. He wrote the Virginia supplement to Fryes Grammar School Geography, which was a nationally used textbook. He also published in the magazine for the Virginia Teachers Association and served as the education editor of the Richmond News-Leader for three years.","In his nine years as president (1919-1928), Chandler faced many challenges that he met with great success. He doubled the size of the faculty, eliminated the high school curriculum to focus on college courses, and strengthened the student teaching program by establishing the College Heights High School on campus. Housed in the appropriately named Chandler Hall, this school enrolled more than 400 students from elementary through high school levels and provided practical teaching preparation.","Chandler also increased the size of the campus with a new student activities building, an open-air theater, and the Virginia Hall residence. Finally, he oversaw an institutional name change. In 1924, The Fredericksburg State Normal and Industrial School for Women became Fredericksburg State Teachers College.","Chandlers most significant challenge was due to a 1919 change in the mission of the Normal Schools as imposed by the State. In order to eliminate unnecessary duplication in programs, areas of specialization were assigned to each of the four state normal schools. While still concentrating on teacher education, Fredericksburg would focus on teaching music, industrial arts, and commercial subjects (business). It would also have the only four-year degree in commercial subjects.","In 1927, Chandler was elected to membership in Phi Beta Kappa at the University of Virginia. He was also one of the two Fredericksburg persons listed in Whos Who in America.","On September 10, 1928, at the age of 58, Chandler suffered a stroke and died while on his way home from the College. He is buried in Bowling Green. After his death, his wife Blanche sold their home to the College, and it served first as the infirmary and later was named Anne Fairfax Hall. As a testament to his commitment to higher education for women as well as an indication of his great fondness for the school that he served, Chandler willed $1,000.00 to the College to establish scholarships for the education of some worthy Junior or Senior students. ","The collection contains Algernon B. Chandler, Jr.'s records from 1919-1928, and principally includes correspondence related to school employees and students; reports to various state education and governmental bodies; and items documenting the fundraising for and building of the Student Alumnae Services Building.

It would also have the only four-year degree in commercial subjects.\n","In 1927, Chandler was elected to membership in Phi Beta Kappa at the University of Virginia. He was also one of the two Fredericksburg persons listed in Whos Who in America.\n","On September 10, 1928, at the age of 58, Chandler suffered a stroke and died while on his way home from the College.  He is buried in Bowling Green.  After his death, his wife Blanche sold their home to the College, and it served first as the infirmary and later was named Anne Fairfax Hall.  As a testament to his commitment to higher education for women as well as an indication of his great fondness for the school that he served, Chandler willed $1,000.00 to the College to establish scholarships for the education of some worthy Junior or Senior students.\n","The collection contains Algernon B. Chandler, Jr.'s records from 1919-1928, and principally includes correspondence related to school employees and students; reports to various state education and governmental bodies; and items documenting the fundraising for and building of the Student Alumnae Services Building.  Much of the correspondence in Series 1 concerns the appointments and reappointments of College faculty, and several memos are signed by the faculty members.  Letters also concern disciplinary problems with students.  All of the correspondence is arranged either chronologically or alphabetically by folder.  Series 2 includes official reports sent to the state board that governed Virginias normal schools and teachers colleges from 1919-1928.  Other reports include bound copies of the state budget bill for 1920, 1922, and 1923, and the appropriations bill for 1922, 1923, and 1924, as well as a supplemental appropriation bill for 1926.  Series 3 contains materials related to the Student Alumnae Services Building.  Items of note are publicity materials for the capital campaign to raise money, a sales manual used to train those soliciting donations, alumni and donor lists, and solicitation correspondence that is arranged chronologically.\n","Atkinson, Eula H.","Black, Ethel","Chiles, J.

The bulk of the collection consists of Professor Edson's written music, which has been arranged into sub-series to reflect the nature of the compositions and instrumentation.","Material is arranged alphabetically except in a few instances where arrangement by date was more appropriate.","Jean Slater Edson was an associate professor of music and physics at Mary Washington College, which has since been renamed the University of Mary Washington. Born on December 22, 1906, as Jean Slater, she grew to be equally interested in science and music. This passion led her to pursue both topics in higher education. Jean Slater began her education by obtaining a liberal arts degree from Vassar College, a Bachelor of Music with a minor in both science and math. From there, she pursued a Master of Arts of Music at Columbia University, where she also studied physics and earned a music fellowship abroad in Vienna, Austria. Jean Slater became Associate Professor of Music at Mary Washington College in 1947. After her first thirteen years of teaching there, she was additionally hired as a part-time professor of physics. Later, she would evenly split her time between her organ studio and physics labs at MWC. During her time at MWC, she married Andrew W. Edson and garnered the name that she would be known by today and in history: Jean Slater Edson. Likewise, some accounts and records of her refer to her as \"Mrs. Andrew W. Edson,\" denoting her status as married. Despite teaching at MWC, Edson was also an active member of the American Guild of Organists, which she held an Associate Degree and a Choir Master degree within. She retired from teaching at MWC in 1972 and died due to declining health on September 19, 1985. ","In addition to her research for physics, Edson also researched music and wrote composition pieces of a large variety. Her most well-known non-composition work is her book,  Organ Preludes: An Index to Compositions on Hymn Tunes, Chorales, Plainsong Melodies, Gregorian Tunes, and Carols . Edson wrote this with other organ players, like herself, in mind; she wanted other organists to have a good reference to the vast world of the instrument's repertoire. Her book outlines and cross-indexes over 3,000 different organ pieces for this purpose, and it was published by Scarecrow Press in 1970. Regarding compositional music, her two most popular pieces among the Fredericksburg community are those that she dedicated to Dr. Grellet C. Simpson, MWC Chancellor from 1956 to 1974. The first one titled \"Fanfare on G.C.S.\" for organ was composed for Dr. Simpson's inauguration, and the other one, titled \"From Age to Age\" for women's choir and organ, was composed for the tenth-year anniversary of his position. Other notable compositions by her include \"Missa Universalis,\" a work for men's choir, solo baritone, and organ that was commissioned and premiered by the Dartmouth College Glee Club, which had nearly fifty members at that time.

The dated materials span 1929 to 1984. Although the majority of her compositions are undated, most of her dated works were created during her time as a teacher at Mary Washington College. Additionally, most correspondence and publications in this collection are in reference to the publishing process for some of Jean Slater Edson's musical works while she was residing in the Northern Virginia/DC area. ","Of particular interest is a collection of letters written by her while she was conducting research across Europe to complete her  Organ Preludes  publication. These letters are addressed to both the family of MWC's former Chancellor, Dr. Simpson, and MWC's first archivist, Barbara Alden, and they document her journey through Germany, Denmark, and England. Some other items that are of note are the score and papers surrounding her large-scale work  Missa Universalis , which include correspondence, a performance program, a newspaper article, and various other documents that denote Jean Slater Edson's creative process for the piece as well as its public reception.

Jean Slater began her education by obtaining a liberal arts degree from Vassar College, a Bachelor of Music with a minor in both science and math. From there, she pursued a Master of Arts of Music at Columbia University, where she also studied physics and earned a music fellowship abroad in Vienna, Austria. Jean Slater became Associate Professor of Music at Mary Washington College in 1947. After her first thirteen years of teaching there, she was additionally hired as a part-time professor of physics. Later, she would evenly split her time between her organ studio and physics labs at MWC. During her time at MWC, she married Andrew W. Edson and garnered the name that she would be known by today and in history: Jean Slater Edson. Likewise, some accounts and records of her refer to her as \"Mrs. Andrew W.

Edson wrote this with other organ players, like herself, in mind; she wanted other organists to have a good reference to the vast world of the instrument's repertoire. Her book outlines and cross-indexes over 3,000 different organ pieces for this purpose, and it was published by Scarecrow Press in 1970. Regarding compositional music, her two most popular pieces among the Fredericksburg community are those that she dedicated to Dr. Grellet C. Simpson, MWC Chancellor from 1956 to 1974. The first one titled \"Fanfare on G.C.S.\" for organ was composed for Dr. Simpson's inauguration, and the other one, titled \"From Age to Age\" for women's choir and organ, was composed for the tenth-year anniversary of his position.
