His feelings of \"isolation\" stemmed from both living off-campus and the limited number of black students at the time. Although he often feels some resentment towards his time at William \u0026amp; Mary, his daughter's admittance to the College revitalized his involvement as an alum.

Since her older brother also attended the College, she recalls that she never \"really felt like William \u0026 Mary wasn't home.\" She describes her favorite memories with her friends as \"quintessentially college.\" Despite this, Walker describes serious flaws in campus culture, such as the microaggressions she experienced as a black woman, the feelings of tokenization she felt in her white sorority, and the stigma surrounding mental health. Walker states that the institution likes to \"skirt over the harder truths.\" These factors have complicated Walker's original \"rose-colored\" view of William \u0026 Mary. As an alum, she hopes the school will \"reevaluate\" tradition and prioritize diversity, inclusion, and equity into the future.","Oral history conducted for the Living the Legacy: 50th Anniversary of African Americans in Residence commemoration.

He looks back on his time in Sigma Phi Epsilon fondly, describing the parties, concerts, and culture of the 70s as \"some of the high points\" in his college career. His sociology degree led him to work in both corrections and the juvenile justice system, instilling him with an awareness and sensitivity for minorities in difficult situations. Despite this, he acknowledges both the academic challenges of the College and the racism he faced on campus and in surrounding Williamsburg. His feelings of \"isolation\" stemmed from both living off-campus and the limited number of black students at the time. Although he often feels some resentment towards his time at William \u0026 Mary, his daughter's admittance to the College revitalized his involvement as an alum. He admits that the amount of students of color at William \u0026 Mary now compared to his father's time is a \"great feeling.\" He values the efforts of the administration to increase and celebrate diversity, and he hopes the school continues to prioritize this in the future.","Connie Swiner III arrived at William \u0026 Mary in 1977.

Memories of his time as a TA for Comparative Anatomy, of being a member of Ebony Expressions, and of receiving the parental support of staff persons in housekeeping and the cafeteria stand out in particular. Connie has remained involved with William \u0026 Mary, stating that: \"I still love the school. So I give back. I go back to visit all the time. Because had it had a negative impact, they wouldn't see a red from me.

Subseries within the series reflect the labeled dividers in the original files. Her general files are in Series I, Correspondence and Subject Files, arranged alphabetically, in boxes 1-24. Speeches by Violet McDougall Pollard, and articles by or about her, are filed in Series I under \"Speeches.\" Series II, Recreation Committee (boxes 25-26), and Series III, Virginia Museum of Fine Arts,(boxes 27-29), were at one time filed in the general sequence under R and V respectively, but have been pulled out into separate series due to their bulk. Series IV, Democratic Party, boxes 30-42, has two subseries, National Politics and Virginia Politics.","National Politics is arranged chronologically, with a small group ofsubject folders at the end. Virginia Politics includes State Politics (arranged chronologically), state subject folders, Democratic Woman's Club, and Young Democrats. Series V, Scrapbooks, in Boxes 43-46, contains scrapbooks of clippings and other bound volumes.","Researchers should note that particular correspondents or topics are often found in more than one place in the collection. For example, correspondence with and about a Virginia artist might be found under his or her name, in the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts files, and in the files \"Art Exhibitions – Virginia and Virginians\" or \"Artists' Christmas Cards.\" Correspondence with a particular Virginia politician might be found under his name, in the National Politics folders, in the State Politics folders, in the Democratic Woman's Club folder because of a speaking engagement, or in another politician's folder because of Pollard's habit of bundling together sequences of related correspondence among several people and filing them as a group.","Violet Elizabeth McDougall was born on 17 July 1889, at Maxville, Ontario, Canada, daughter of Peter and Ellen (Robertson) McDougall. She attended Cornwall Normal School of Ontario and was a teacher in Ontario and Saskatchewan, 1910-1912. She then attended Regina College at Saskatchewan for a year, and was secretary in a law office from 1913-1917. She came to the United States in 1917 and was offered a position as secretary in the Virginia governor's office in 1918. She was executive secretary to four successive governors of Virginia between 1918 and 1933: Westmoreland Davis, E. Lee Trinkle, Harry F. Byrd, and John Garland Pollard. She was known affectionately as \"Miss Mac\" to her many friends.","On 31 July 1933, she married Governor Pollard, whose first wife had died in 1932. After his term in office ended in 1934, the couple moved to Washington, D.C., where he served as Chairman of the Board of Veterans Appeals and she attended law school at George Washington University. Upon John Garland Pollard's death in 1937, she returned to Richmond and attended law school at the University of Richmond. She went back to Washington from 1938 to 1940, to work as secretary to the Assistant Administrator of the United States Housing Authority.","In 1940 Violet McDougall Pollard returned again to Richmond to join the staff of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, which John Garland Pollard had been instrumental in creating. During World War II, the museum's director left to join the Marines, and she served as co-director (in charge of business affairs) with Beatrice von Keller (in charge of art). After the war, she was the museum's associate director until her retirement in 1956. She continued her association with the museum through museum advisory committees and through her position on the board of the Federated Arts Council of Richmond until about 1971.","Long interested in politics and maintaining a wide circle of friends in Virginia political circles from her years on the governor's staff, Violet McDougall Pollard became active in the Democratic Party after becoming a naturalized citizen in 1934. She was a delegate to every national Democratic convention from 1936 to 1968, serving on the platform committee in 1952, 1956, 1960, and 1964. She was elected National Committeewoman for Virginia in 1940, a position she held until 1968. As National Committeewoman, she was deeply involved with Democratic Party activities on the state and local levels as well.","Violet McDougall Pollard was involved with a host of state and civic organizations and causes, including the Recreation Committee of the Advisory Council on the Virginia Economy and the Inter-Agency Committee on Recreation; the Associated Clubs of Virginia for Roadside Development; the Industrial Committee of the Virginia State Chamber of Commerce; the Federated Arts Council of Richmond; the Historic Richmond Foundation; and the Woman's Club of Richmond.","She died at her home in Lancaster, Virginia, on 2 January 1977.","This collection is housed off-site.

They also cover her many civic activities, and correspondence with family and friends.","Information on her political activities is found in the files she kept on National Politics, documenting her activities as an official in the Democratic Party; her files on State Politics, documenting her involvement with state Party activities and with organizations such as the Democratic Women's Clubs in Virginia; and throughout her correspondence files, in her letters with many prominent Virginia politicians such as Harry F. Byrd and John S. Battle. Virginia Democrats' increasing dissatisfaction with the national party as not representing the views of the Southern states on issues of civil rights and integration from the late 1940s through the 1960s is a major topic. The role of women in public affairs and politics is another frequent topic in Pollard's papers. In addition to direct discussion of women's roles, the papers document women's activities in the Democratic Party in a time when those activities were generally separate from, though complementary to, men's activities.","Pollard's involvement with art and art education in Virginia are reflected in her files on the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, which include a mixture of personal files, copies of official museum records, and literature produced by the museum; her files on the Federated Arts Council of Richmond and other subject files on arts issues; and in correspondence files under the names of artists and of museum staff and supporters.","Arranged alphabetically.

John Garland Pollard was instrumental in its creation and in raising private funds to support it, during his tenure as governor of Virginia, 1930-1934. Upon leaving office he became the president of the museum board. The museum opened to the public in 1936. Violet McDougall Pollard was also interested in the museum, and in 1940 she became Museum Secretary for Membership, and was also in charge of the Extension Division. She soon became the museum's business manager, then co-director for business affairs during the director's absence due to World War II. She was Associate Director until retiring in 1956. After retirement, she continued her association with the museum through various committees, especially in the areas of membership and art education.

She was a delegate to every Democratic national convention from 1936-1968, and served on the platform committee at the 1952, 1956, 1960, and 1964 conventions. The Democratic Party series reflects her party activities in two subseries, National Politics and Virginia Politics. There is considerable overlap of topics between the subseries; National Politics also includes information on state campaigns and fund-raising, while the State Politics folders often include Virginians' views on national matters. The series as a whole documents women's activities and networking in the Democratic Party at the national, state, and local levels.   The National Politics subseries is arranged chronologically, with a small group of subject folders at the end. (Note that items may be filed in folders from later years because of Pollard's habit of bundling together sequences of related correspondence and filing them as a group). The materials are primarily publications and correspondence that were sent out to all national committeewomen. Personal correspondence in the subseries is often not substantive, consisting of \"It was so nice to see you,\" or \"I won't be able to attend but please assign my proxy to ------.\" The subseries provides a good picture of official party activities for women, and documents Pollard's networking with other Democratic women, but not a comprehensive view of opinions and policymaking within the party. The Democratic National Committeman for Virginia for many years was E. R. Combs of Richmond. Since he and Pollard both lived in the same city, there is no correspondence between them, although there are indications that they worked very closely together. In 1948, G. Fred Switzer of Harrisonburg became Virginia's Committeeman, and he and Pollard corresponded frequently and exchanged copies of their correspondence with other Virginia Democrats as well. The files after 1948 thus contain more discussion of issues and comments on Party officials. A major topic in the subseries is Virginia Democrats' dissatisfaction with the national leadership over the issues of civil rights and integration. Substantive correspondence has been particularly noted in the folder descriptions. Additional correspondence on national activities and issues can be found in the Virginia Politics subseries, and in the folders of individual correspondents in Series I.   The Virginia Politics subseries is grouped into State Politics (arranged chronologically), state subject folders, Democratic Woman's Club of Richmond (arranged chronologically), and some material on Young Democrats. Like the National Politics subseries, the Virginia Politics subseries contains publications and official mailings concerning party activities for women. However, the State Politics folders have a much higher proportion of substantive, personal correspondence to official mass mailings than do the National Politics folders. Pollard's correspondence with other Virginia women contain comments on events and issues much more frequently than her friendly notes to and from Democratic women outside the state. The Democratic Woman's Club files document women's activities at the local level, in Richmond.","Platforms of the Two Great Political Parties 1856-1928_, signed on the flyleaf \"Violet E.

John Garland Pollard was instrumental in its creation and in raising private funds to support it, during his tenure as governor of Virginia, 1930-1934. Upon leaving office he became the president of the museum board. The museum opened to the public in 1936. Violet McDougall Pollard was also interested in the museum, and in 1940 she became Museum Secretary for Membership, and was also in charge of the Extension Division. She soon became the museum's business manager, then co-director for business affairs during the director's absence due to World War II. She was Associate Director until retiring in 1956. After retirement, she continued her association with the museum through various committees, especially in the areas of membership and art education. The series contains correspondence, memos, minutes, and literature about various aspects of the museum's operations, reflecting Violet McDougall Pollard's activities though it is not a complete set of records. Most of the folders are arranged chronologically, but her committee work on art education fellowships is in folders 28:4-5. Museum-related publications are at the end of the series.

She was a delegate to every Democratic national convention from 1936-1968, and served on the platform committee at the 1952, 1956, 1960, and 1964 conventions. The Democratic Party series reflects her party activities in two subseries, National Politics and Virginia Politics. There is considerable overlap of topics between the subseries; National Politics also includes information on state campaigns and fund-raising, while the State Politics folders often include Virginians' views on national matters. The series as a whole documents women's activities and networking in the Democratic Party at the national, state, and local levels.   The National Politics subseries is arranged chronologically, with a small group of subject folders at the end. (Note that items may be filed in folders from later years because of Pollard's habit of bundling together sequences of related correspondence and filing them as a group). The materials are primarily publications and correspondence that were sent out to all national committeewomen. Personal correspondence in the subseries is often not substantive, consisting of \"It was so nice to see you,\" or \"I won't be able to attend but please assign my proxy to ------.\" The subseries provides a good picture of official party activities for women, and documents Pollard's networking with other Democratic women, but not a comprehensive view of opinions and policymaking within the party. The Democratic National Committeman for Virginia for many years was E. R. Combs of Richmond. Since he and Pollard both lived in the same city, there is no correspondence between them, although there are indications that they worked very closely together. In 1948, G. Fred Switzer of Harrisonburg became Virginia's Committeeman, and he and Pollard corresponded frequently and exchanged copies of their correspondence with other Virginia Democrats as well. The files after 1948 thus contain more discussion of issues and comments on Party officials. A major topic in the subseries is Virginia Democrats' dissatisfaction with the national leadership over the issues of civil rights and integration. Substantive correspondence has been particularly noted in the folder descriptions. Additional correspondence on national activities and issues can be found in the Virginia Politics subseries, and in the folders of individual correspondents in Series I.   The Virginia Politics subseries is grouped into State Politics (arranged chronologically), state subject folders, Democratic Woman's Club of Richmond (arranged chronologically), and some material on Young Democrats. Like the National Politics subseries, the Virginia Politics subseries contains publications and official mailings concerning party activities for women. However, the State Politics folders have a much higher proportion of substantive, personal correspondence to official mass mailings than do the National Politics folders. Pollard's correspondence with other Virginia women contain comments on events and issues much more frequently than her friendly notes to and from Democratic women outside the state. The Democratic Woman's Club files document women's activities at the local level, in Richmond.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003ePlatforms of the Two Great Political Parties 1856-1928_, signed on the flyleaf \"Violet E.

They also cover her many civic activities, and correspondence with family and friends.","Information on her political activities is found in the files she kept on National Politics, documenting her activities as an official in the Democratic Party; her files on State Politics, documenting her involvement with state Party activities and with organizations such as the Democratic Women's Clubs in Virginia; and throughout her correspondence files, in her letters with many prominent Virginia politicians such as Harry F. Byrd and John S. Battle. Virginia Democrats' increasing dissatisfaction with the national party as not representing the views of the Southern states on issues of civil rights and integration from the late 1940s through the 1960s is a major topic. The role of women in public affairs and politics is another frequent topic in Pollard's papers. In addition to direct discussion of women's roles, the papers document women's activities in the Democratic Party in a time when those activities were generally separate from, though complementary to, men's activities.","Pollard's involvement with art and art education in Virginia are reflected in her files on the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, which include a mixture of personal files, copies of official museum records, and literature produced by the museum; her files on the Federated Arts Council of Richmond and other subject files on arts issues; and in correspondence files under the names of artists and of museum staff and supporters.","Arranged alphabetically.

John Garland Pollard was instrumental in its creation and in raising private funds to support it, during his tenure as governor of Virginia, 1930-1934. Upon leaving office he became the president of the museum board. The museum opened to the public in 1936. Violet McDougall Pollard was also interested in the museum, and in 1940 she became Museum Secretary for Membership, and was also in charge of the Extension Division. She soon became the museum's business manager, then co-director for business affairs during the director's absence due to World War II. She was Associate Director until retiring in 1956. After retirement, she continued her association with the museum through various committees, especially in the areas of membership and art education. The series contains correspondence, memos, minutes, and literature about various aspects of the museum's operations, reflecting Violet McDougall Pollard's activities though it is not a complete set of records.

She was a delegate to every Democratic national convention from 1936-1968, and served on the platform committee at the 1952, 1956, 1960, and 1964 conventions. The Democratic Party series reflects her party activities in two subseries, National Politics and Virginia Politics. There is considerable overlap of topics between the subseries; National Politics also includes information on state campaigns and fund-raising, while the State Politics folders often include Virginians' views on national matters. The series as a whole documents women's activities and networking in the Democratic Party at the national, state, and local levels.   The National Politics subseries is arranged chronologically, with a small group of subject folders at the end. (Note that items may be filed in folders from later years because of Pollard's habit of bundling together sequences of related correspondence and filing them as a group). The materials are primarily publications and correspondence that were sent out to all national committeewomen. Personal correspondence in the subseries is often not substantive, consisting of \"It was so nice to see you,\" or \"I won't be able to attend but please assign my proxy to ------.\" The subseries provides a good picture of official party activities for women, and documents Pollard's networking with other Democratic women, but not a comprehensive view of opinions and policymaking within the party. The Democratic National Committeman for Virginia for many years was E. R. Combs of Richmond. Since he and Pollard both lived in the same city, there is no correspondence between them, although there are indications that they worked very closely together. In 1948, G. Fred Switzer of Harrisonburg became Virginia's Committeeman, and he and Pollard corresponded frequently and exchanged copies of their correspondence with other Virginia Democrats as well. The files after 1948 thus contain more discussion of issues and comments on Party officials. A major topic in the subseries is Virginia Democrats' dissatisfaction with the national leadership over the issues of civil rights and integration. Substantive correspondence has been particularly noted in the folder descriptions. Additional correspondence on national activities and issues can be found in the Virginia Politics subseries, and in the folders of individual correspondents in Series I.   The Virginia Politics subseries is grouped into State Politics (arranged chronologically), state subject folders, Democratic Woman's Club of Richmond (arranged chronologically), and some material on Young Democrats. Like the National Politics subseries, the Virginia Politics subseries contains publications and official mailings concerning party activities for women. However, the State Politics folders have a much higher proportion of substantive, personal correspondence to official mass mailings than do the National Politics folders. Pollard's correspondence with other Virginia women contain comments on events and issues much more frequently than her friendly notes to and from Democratic women outside the state. The Democratic Woman's Club files document women's activities at the local level, in Richmond.","Platforms of the Two Great Political Parties 1856-1928_, signed on the flyleaf \"Violet E.

Transcripts, indexes, and key words are only tools meant to help guide users to the sound recordings. Most of these interviews were done by WDP student-interviewers. Most interviews combine a life history format with some questioning specific to a student-interviewer's research interests. As part of their training, WDP students do some group interviews and also interview one another, and the collection also contains these recordings. Additionally, the collection gathers some recordings that were done by other groups—for example, local volunteers helping commemorate Williamsburg's 300th anniversary. All oral history interviews conducted by the WDP are done following the Oral History Association's principles and best practices guidelines. Each record in the digital archive contains: a) a sound recording of an interview (WAV format; some MP3 format); a few recordings have been edited to reflect restrictions; some recordings are available for use only on-site in Swem Library's Special Collections b) an image of the Deed of Gift relevant to the interview (PDF or TIFF format) c) a \"live index\" to the recording (PDF format); these indexes were made by assistants to the main interviewer during the interview and, using time code, give a rough guide to major topics covered in the interview. d) a \"headnote\" (PDF format); written by the main interviewer, headnotes give some basic information on the circumstances in which the interview took place and highlight some key topics covered in the interview. Many records also contain: e) an interview transcript, which incorporates the headnote described above (PDF format); prepared by the main interviewer, transcripts attempt to render the dialogue of the interview in a way that is quickly searchable. SCHOLARS WISHING TO QUOTE, SYNOPSIZE, OR REFERENCE A WDP ORAL HISTORY SHOULD ALWAYS CHECK THE TRANSCRIPT AGAINST THE INTERVIEW RECORDING.

Many records also contain: e) an interview transcript, which incorporates the headnote described above (PDF format); prepared by the main interviewer, transcripts attempt to render the dialogue of the interview in a way that is quickly searchable. SCHOLARS WISHING TO QUOTE, SYNOPSIZE, OR REFERENCE A WDP ORAL HISTORY SHOULD ALWAYS CHECK THE TRANSCRIPT AGAINST THE INTERVIEW RECORDING. Some records may also contain: f) scans of documents or photographs (TIFF files) related to the interviewee or topics covered in the interview.","Davis does not wanted monetary publications to use her interview.","An edited version of this oral history is being made available to researchers at the request of the interviewee."],"prefercite_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eWilliamsburg Documentary Project Collection, Special Collections Research Center, Swem Library, College of William and Mary.\u003c/p\u003e  "],"prefercite_tesim":["Williamsburg Documentary Project Collection, Special Collections Research Center, Swem Library, College of William and Mary."],"processinfo_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eAcc. 2009.030 accessioned and minimally described by Amy C.

Transcripts, indexes, and key words are only tools meant to help guide users to the sound recordings. Most of these interviews were done by WDP student-interviewers. Most interviews combine a life history format with some questioning specific to a student-interviewer's research interests. As part of their training, WDP students do some group interviews and also interview one another, and the collection also contains these recordings. Additionally, the collection gathers some recordings that were done by other groups—for example, local volunteers helping commemorate Williamsburg's 300th anniversary. All oral history interviews conducted by the WDP are done following the Oral History Association's principles and best practices guidelines. Each record in the digital archive contains: a) a sound recording of an interview (WAV format; some MP3 format); a few recordings have been edited to reflect restrictions; some recordings are available for use only on-site in Swem Library's Special Collections b) an image of the Deed of Gift relevant to the interview (PDF or TIFF format) c) a \"live index\" to the recording (PDF format); these indexes were made by assistants to the main interviewer during the interview and, using time code, give a rough guide to major topics covered in the interview. d) a \"headnote\" (PDF format); written by the main interviewer, headnotes give some basic information on the circumstances in which the interview took place and highlight some key topics covered in the interview. Many records also contain: e) an interview transcript, which incorporates the headnote described above (PDF format); prepared by the main interviewer, transcripts attempt to render the dialogue of the interview in a way that is quickly searchable. SCHOLARS WISHING TO QUOTE, SYNOPSIZE, OR REFERENCE A WDP ORAL HISTORY SHOULD ALWAYS CHECK THE TRANSCRIPT AGAINST THE INTERVIEW RECORDING.

Interviewed was Lisa\nOwnby who serves as the Vice Chair of the Williainsburg James City County School board. She\nis also appointed as head of the special education advisory committee within the school board\nsystem. During the interview Lisa Ownby discusses how her relationship with her brother\nunfortunately suffering from numerous disabilities impacted her life choices and career path.\nThroughout the interview she discusses her early volunteering with Special Olympics eventually\nleading to her eventual work at Child Development Resources funded by the U.S. Department of\nEducation. Lisa Ownby in this interview offers her point of view on several facets of the\nWilliainsburg James City County Public school system. First and foremost she offers her\nperspective on funding of special education on a local, state and national level. This interview\nwas an excellent way to see how those working within the school board view the production of\nthe special education system and of what issues are taking place in the system in regards to\nfunding.

However, by some miscommunication, even though he\narrived at the bookstore, we were never able to find each other. I'm guessing it was an issue with\nparking. After waiting an hour, I interviewed Jennifer. We discussed her own experience\ngrowing up in Fairfax, Virginia with the label of\"ESL\" and how it drove her towards academic\nsuccess because she wanted to leave behind the term \"ESL\" as an identifier. We also touched on\nher parents' interactions with the school system and how her relationship with her parents was\nstrained by communication barriers. Today, Jennifer is a William and Mary student, minoring in\nLatin American studies in order to learn more about her own roots. The background noise is\nrelatively loud throughout the interview, but the recording is still understandable. Although she\ndoes state her name as Jennifer Albarracin Moya in the recording, most of the time she goes by\nsolely her first last name, Albarracin, and so I decided to refer to her as Jennifer Albarracin after\nconsulting her preferences.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eThe content of this note was taken from the headnote created by the interview team. \u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eI interviewed Jennifer Albarracin at the William and Mary Barnes and Noble on Saturday, April\n7.
