Miscellaneous papers regarding the Board of Visitors [manuscript], 11940-1964.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/648020789

The collection consists chiefly of letters and research by librarians Francis L. Berkeley, Jr., and John Cook Wyllie in response to reference requests on the history of the Board of Visitors. Includes a report to the Board by its Committee on Student Affairs, 1954, which considered various student complaints including the East Lawn Incident; State U-ism; and President Darden's policies towards fraternities and a student activities center. The report concluded with a strong reaffirmation of confidence in Darden, a recommendation that Student Council be reorganized, and a restatement of the University's mission as a state university and the necessity of according students "all the freedom consistent with gentlemanly conduct, good moral behaviour and reasonably studious habits." The collection also contains a memorial resolution of the death of Horace Alfred Gray, Jr., copies of certificates honoring the Board service of Albert V. Bryan and Walter B. Martin; and a list of names and addresses of Board members.
