    We, too, Have Deeds of Heroism to Tell our Children: The Role of the United Daughters of the Confederacy in the Perpetuation of the Confederate Lost Cause in Fayetteville, Arkansas

    The conversation surrounding Confederate memorialization has become increasingly relevant, especially as it relates to public monuments. One of the groups that perpetuated Confederate memorialization was the United Daughters of the Confederacy. In the early twentieth century, this organization was prolific in not only memorializing the Old South, but also in seeking to vindicate the Confederacy. While this topic has been discussed and analyzed by scholars on the national level, and even regionally, the conversation skips over Fayetteville. Fayetteville’s history is considered more progressive due to the presence of the University, but there is little coverage of Fayetteville’s memorialization of the Lost Cause of the Confederacy. This paper seeks to prove that the local chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC) in Fayetteville preserved the legacy of the antebellum South in both visual and written form. The Mildred Lee Chapter vindicated its cause through its extensive preservation of clippings published in Fayetteville newspapers, their promotion of literature through books and textbooks, and its proclivity for “performing” the Confederacy through inanimate objects, the members, and their children. The UDC sought to preserve the cause of the Confederacy in Fayetteville, and although the Mildred Lee chapter erected no statues in the downtown square, they built their version of history into the foundation of the town’s collective psyche through the way they influenced the public’s perception and education surrounding the “War Between the States.

    The Graylands story

    Get PDF
    Gray lands is unique -there is no doubt about that. Many past Graylanders would suggest that its uniqueness came from its buildings, but there were other teacher-education institutions in Australia which were compelled to operate in unsatisfactory conditions. Indeed, the physical surroundings for students and staff at Claremont had been, over the years since the war, little better than those at Graylands. Besides, toward the end of its life, through the efforts of the 4,000 students who passed through its corrugated-iron huts, the hundreds of lecturers, administrators and clerical officers who remained dedicated despite the totally inadequate accommodation, and the succession of hardworking gardeners, caretakers and cleaners, the college found itself in better shape than it had ever been. By that time it was air-conditioned; its grounds were a tribute to the efforts of all these people; it had equipment which in some areas was second to none in Australia. Probably the conditions had something to do with the individuality of Gray lands, but they do not entirely account for the elusive factor, whatever it was, that made exGraylanders so valued as additions to staff in any school in Western Australia

    The Web Magazine focuses on alumni news and campus events from Gardner-Webb College; now Gardner-Webb University. This issue of The Web is known as the Homecoming Edition; however, it does still start out with the President\u27s Update by Frank R. Campbell. Then, the issue highlights The Value of Accreditation in which they list and describe several different types of accreditation. Since We Last Met , is a section giving general updates including that of the stadium project and how it is underway. A few students decide to give a gift with the Locks of Love program in which they grow their hair out and then cut off around 10 inches of their hair to donate to girls who have cancer and lost their hair. With sports, the football program takes home second straight conference title. Lastly, since this was the homecoming edition, it is proper to include many great articles and pictures to set the scene.https://digitalcommons.gardner-webb.edu/the-web/1170/thumbnail.jp
