Photographs

Scope and content:

Arranged chronologically, with one exception (box 18, folder 11) in compliance with original order received, and then alphabetically.

Series 4: Photographs, 1980-2015, consists almost entirely of photographs and negatives documenting professional, curricular, and social happenings in the Department of Nursing. In general, folders titled "Photos, xxxx" contain photos concerning the graduating class of the most recent date in the title. Some of the photos are labeled but the majority are not. Events of interest, which can be found throughout many folders with duplicates throughout, include: Class Pinning Ceremonies, some with Dr. Carrier and Dr. Dake, student and faculty meetings and conferences, students involved in practicum instruction, and Career Days. Individual class photos of every graduating nursing student can be found in years 1993-1996, 1998-2000. Some photos include Dr. Carrier, Dr. Linwood Rose, fifth president of JMU, and Virginia Senator Mark Warner. Other photos show campus construction of Phillips Hall and an unidentified building on East Campus. Box 17, folder 3 and box 18, folder 3 contain photos of Wilson Hall as seen from Bridgeforth Stadium. In addition, there are many photos throughout the series that have sticky notes with stars on the back. There is one photo album in this series that documents the first two years of the program from the faculty/staff perspective. There are many loose photos and labels throughout the album.
