Tradition at the University: 1959-1961


Shannon's Inaugural Address

As he outlined his vision for the University, Shannon mentioned Jefferson and his legacy quite a bit, but never once the word "tradition." 1959


Corks and Curls, 1960

This dedication and photo essay relate quite aptly the double-vision of UVa, at once forward and backward looking.


Mr. Jefferson's University

Written by someone not affiliated with the University, Goolrick's artilce gives an insightful look into the nature of student life and institutions as UVa attempts to straddle the past and the future. Chester Goolrick, Holiday, February 1961
