Correspondence concerning curriculum revision [manuscript], 1950 March.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/648021114

Henry N. "Harry" Taylor, editor in chief of the Cavalier Daily, corresponded with "McGregor Room Curator" John Cook Wyllie on the subject of postwar curriculum revision. Wyllie praises Peters Rushton and Colgate Darden noting that the former "was the only man who ever served the University very effectively as a public conscience." He explains some of the politics involved in reform, regrets the loss of Hedlund and refers to the reports of the Post-War Planning Committee and the Hyde Committee.
