UMW: A Centennial History, 1908-2008
William B. Crawley Jr.
In this lively narrative, Distinguished Professor of History William B. Crawley Jr. depicts events at UMW within a broad perspective, showing how developments on campus mirrored the often tumultuous social and cultural changes sweeping the nation. While giving due attention to the milestone events - from the laying of the first building's cornerstone through the 2008 Centennial celebration - the book also addresses controversial topics such as the decision for coeducation, periodic name-change debates, and the ill-fated presidency of William Frawley. Much of the appeal of this book derives from Professor Crawley's colorful accounts of student life. Encompassing both the frivolous and the serious, the narrative describes such traditions as May Day, Devil-Goat Day, Halloweens, and 100th Night, as well as the Honor System and the highly successful athletic program. Professor Crawley offers a vivid portrait of the University's first century from the unique vantage of one who not only observed but also participated in many of the events he describes. This astute analyst and masterful storyteller provides an account that will engage and delight all those acquainted with the University of Mary Washington.
