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.

Winter, 1983.","Edward H. Russell\nPresident, 1908-1919\nFredericksburg State Normal and Industrial School for Women","Edward Hutson Russell was born in Petersburg, Virginia on November 26, 1869. He graduated from Virginia Military Institute in 1891 and studied law at Richmond College until he began teaching. His early teaching career was varied: he served as principal at Pulaski, for two-years as commandant of the Fishburne Military Academy, and as superintendent of schools in Bristol, where he founded and conducted a summer school for teachers at Emory and Henry College. In 1905 he became a member of the State Board of Public School Examiners for the First Circuit that included Fredericksburg. While in Fredericksburg, he again founded and taught a summer school for teachers.","Based partially on his intimate knowledge of the public schools as well as his successful summer institutes for teachers, on May 19, 1908 the Board of Trustees appointed Russell as president of the new Fredericksburg State Normal and Industrial School for Women.","Beyond his responsibilities for establishing the facilities of the school, Russell also set the courses of instruction. He established a regular course that was two to four years of high school level education and a professional course that was a two year normal school course after a high school education. It was Russells hope that as the state established more high schools, the regular course would be reduced by two years. The professional course covered general education, methodology, and student teaching completed in concert with the Fredericksburg Public School system. The program concluded with a teaching certificate issued by the State Board of Examiners.","Due to limited accommodations, admission to the new teacher-training school was competitive; applicants were required to be at least fifteen years old, of good moral character, and possessing a thorough knowledge of subjects taught in the grammar grades of public school. Social standards were equally high. Students were expected to practice self-control and required to wear clothing of simplicity and modesty. Though the school was not affiliated with any single church, Russell extended his policy of discipline to religious worship. Students were expected to attend some church, preferably by the choice of their parents. Aside from church-sponsored entertainment, students had numerous activities to choose from, including sports and clubs. The Russell Literary Society was particularly popular among students, as well as the Student Government Association and the school yearbook, the Battlefield.","As the first president of what is now the University of Mary Washington, Russell supplemented the normal school course of study with curriculum in classical, commercial, and industrial courses, already envisioning a larger institution. However, his ambitious efforts weakened him physically, and ill health forced him to resign the presidency on May 9, 1919. He then moved with his family to Washington, where he entered the real estate business. He died in 1956. ","The collection contains Edward H. Russell's records from 1909-1919, and principally includes correspondence related to school subjects and personnel; reports to various state education bodies; reports on teachers salaries and summer school; and reports of comparative statistics with other similar institutions. Some reports in this collection were generated by Dean Algernon B. Chandler, Jr. acting on behalf of the President.","Folder 8 contains materials pertaining to the appointment of Hugh S. Bird as head of the Education Department at the Normal School. Also included are progress reports to the Fredericksburg School Board relative to using the Fredericksburg schools for teacher training. Folder 9 contains memos to student employees and memos regarding special privileges of the senior class. Folder 10 contains materials documenting rules and procedures for the new schools library, swimming pool, and housekeeping services. Folder 15 contains various reports to the state board governing the four Normal Schools in Virginia. It also includes reports on the impact of the Spanish influenza on the students and faculty.

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. 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.
