if you look at his plans for the university, at the time a lot of universities consisted of one very big building for classes were held and there were dormitory rooms. jefferson's idea was to make a village out of it, with students living here the professors and classes being given in the professors homes. there was constant interaction of students and faculty. it's in charlottesville, and in the 1820's there was a small town, a village really. if you think about these amazing buildings that went up in the early 1820's in the middle of nowhere, it was part of his ideal of the united states as an agrarian society and the elite becoming leaders of the country. the university archives are the official historical records of the university. they go back to long before the university was chartered in 1819. records go back to 1814, back to the institutions that preceded uva. the archives are about 4 million items. it's the records of the president, the dean's, the provosts, the library, every facet of the university. it's paper, sound recording, video recording, digital material, email, webs

it was the center of university of life. it has changed dramatically in the 20th century as i said the library until 1938, and then a new main library, adjacent to this building was built, and the rotunda used as a event space and for officers and essentially from about world war ii until very recently there was not a lot of assigned activity to the rotunda it was more of a ceremonial space and -- students could go four years without going into the rotunda and didn't seem leak quite the right thing so undergone about -- two years worth of repair and renovation. and with an eye specifically to making it more excessable and more appealing to students to use to study in the dome room to study in the other room to have it open later at night. have spaces that were more classes can meet. so they're trying really hard i think it's a great idea to bring it back to the center of academic life and not just have it as a big monument sitting at the head of the lawn. >> there's no question that jefferson would be astonished about uva tod

now we're here on the university grounds. thinking back on the city as a whole you lived here for 30 years. what would you like to see for the future? what is your ideal dream for charlottesville? >> i don't dream for charlottesville. i know that charlottesville will continue to experience this tremendous growth which were expensing right now. a lot of new construction, new development. we have made all of those great list that you could make the city to live, best place to live, best place to raise children, best place to retire, and on and on. we have been number one on all of those lists, which is great, and but i would hate for it to be a victim of its own success and the problems that we have are really the problems you want as a community. you want people to want to live in your community. you want people to live, visit and experience all the things that you love about your hometown. so my dream for charlottesville would be that as it grows and as we write this new century in brick and stone and mortar, not just on paper

the buildings. is it calls an academic village and if you look at his manor university, at the time a lot of universities consisted of one big building where classes were held and jefferson's idea was to essentially make a village out of it, with the students living near the professors and classes being given in the professor's homes and so there was all this constant interaction of student and faculty. plus it's in charlottesville in the 1820s, a small town, village, really, if you think about these amazing buildings that went up in the 1820s, sitting out in the middle of nowhere in virginia, it was part of his ideal of the united states is an agrarian society and the elite becoming leaders s of the country and that sort of thing. >> the university archives are the official historical records of the university, and they go back to -- actually long before the university was chartered by the state. that was in 1819. and records good back to 1814, to the two institutions that preceded uva, the archives, as i said, are four million items. it's the records of the board of visitors and the records of the pres

that is what the university of virginia was about. as far as jefferson was concerned, james madison was just as much involved in the project that became the university of virginia believed that uva was the insurance policy for the american revolution and that it would be here on the grounds of the university where the flame of the enlightenment would burn brighter than anywhere else in the world. >> the university of virginia today has gone from an academic village to an academical city with over 20000 students compared to many other significant universities that is still relatively a medium-size university, but it is quite big and sprawling today across much of what we consider the west end of charlottesville. >> so we have seen monticello, we've driven to the not downtown and now in the university grounds. thinking back on the city that you have lived for 30 years, what would you like to see for the future? what is your ideal dream for charlottesville? >> i know charlottesville will continue to experience tremendous growth which have

is now a faculty club the was constructed before the university was chartered this is one of his potential drawings like this with floor plans for each of the 10 pavilions he didn't quite get the scale right and then had to complete the chimney stack that shows how he could make the mistake like that. but this is an example of the ground floor of the pavilion in the lower floor is where the cooking have been in some of the slaves that worked for the professor would have lived for you can see it is neoclassical. one of the big source books was the of four books of architecture that came out 1721. he used those to draw inspiration especially for the pavilion. each one is different he wanted university to be an open-air classrooms see you can see classical all architecture with a different styles and features the university got off the ground officially rita dove with the general assembly gave the university a charter and funding to continue building buildings as was critical and this was a ledger maintained by the procter was a chief operating officer of the university es

and he is coming out of the university of michigan somewhere around $1000 in debt. the football coach at the university of michigan, coach kipchy, introduces him to the coach at yale. he has a job for him coaching junior varsity football, line coaching for the varsity team, and coaching boxing at yale. him will that earns ford a paycheck. it does not get him into yale law school. he approaches yale law school and the school assesses him. they said he would be a fine student, but not if he has a job. you can't go to yale law, take on the load of study that is demanded by them, and hold a job. so the reasoning goes. ford also talks with his coaches about that, who tell him, well, you can't really go to law school and fulfill your coaching responsibilities. he has these dynamics working against his ambition to become a lawyer. he takes some provisional classes elsewhere to demonstrate he can do the work. using that, he gets himself admitted into yale law school. he does not tell them he has this other job. he does not tell his other coaches he is going to go to law scho

while the university archives are the historical of the university. they go back to actually long before the university was chartered by the state. that was in 1819 and it goes back to the institutions that pre-seeded uva. the archives are about 4 million items. it's the record of board of visitor, it's the records of the president, the deans, the provost, the library, every fast set of the university of t the, it's sound recordings and midge cal, e-mail, website, digital. everything that's a historical record of the university we try to capture. these are some of the very records, some that go back to 1817. this is a letter that jefferson wrote 1817 to william thornton, who was the man he assigned to work on the united states capitol building when he was president. so they were very good friends. and jefferson wrote to thornton about his ideas for the university in the middle he included a sketch of what he was thinking. an open-ended rectangle with pavelions, interspersed with dormitory rooms regularly and then an open area he says is grass and tree

this education was different from what the university provided. the young dandy there with a book open on the floor and another in his book is a callow youth. to become a man, to get what was necessary to strengthen the race, he had to heed the call of carolina with her big sword and thin robe and go off to experience war. this message resonated with the evolutionary ideology that was shaping university life during the time. among the races of men there was endless conflict for dominion. the victory is ever to be strong. the object of education was to prevent the degeneration of the white race and improve on its superiority. silent sam extends beyond the as confederate racism of the 1860's and shares in the social darwinism we saw in the yale memorial. as both memorials are also great examples of the shifting in american thinking about the military. during the civil war, there was certainly a lot of social pressure for young men to enlist, but it was all about mediating between public and private obligations. nobody said that military service was g
