Florence Barber Diary, 1902, 1901
No full textThis diary was formerly described as an unattributed diary and entitled: Diary (Portsmouth, Va.), 1901, but has now been attributed to Florence Barber of Norfolk, Virginia. In brief daily entries she talks about the weather, chores, and social life, trips to town, church, attending meetings, etc. In August she went to visit churches and schools in Georgia and Alabama, like Atlanta University and Spelman College, both historically black schools. She also mentions teaching music, attending educational meetings in Portsmouth and being elected president of the local YMCA. September 3 is the last entry in this diary.Research conducted by William and Mary students in 2011 pointed to Florence Barber as the owner and author of this diary. Their research also corrected that the diary was actually from 1902, not 1901 and that the author lived in Norfolk, not Portsmouth, Virginia. The diary was transcribed and made available online in 2012.For a more detailed description from staff as well as description and excerpts from the diary provided by the seller, please see digital item:

No full textThis video titled, “Dr. Danieley – A Special Report,” was presented by Phoenix14 News, Elon Student Television, and School of Communications in 2008. This documentary was produced by Tim Barber and Kirsten Bennett. Barber hosted this “Dr. D.” documentary as the first and last man seen at Elon’s Commencements while holding the Elon MACE. Barber informed the audience of the Dr. Danieley’s life which was interwoven with the ELON, itself. This documentary included: “Dr. D” as a student, professor, and president at Elon. Barber stated, “This is a man who has been a part of Elon for more than 60 years (in 2010) and generations of students know him as ‘Dr. D.’” Barber interviewed and followed Dr. Danieley at events that included: Dr. D. walking into McMichael Science building; “You have to have a passion for the subject that you are teaching, stated ‘Dr. D.;’” see Dr. Danieley teaching; heard the Alamance Bell ringing; Danieley welcomed new students and families; and old photos of Elon College and Dr. Danieley as Elon President. In addition, Danieley brought Elon College national recognition with speakers such as Vice President Lyndon Baines Johnson (D-TX) and Congressman Gerald Rudolph Ford, Jr., (R-MI). Barber conducted a Danieley interview with the O’Kelly Monument in the background. The two had a conversation about Danieley’s welcoming of the first African-American student in 1965 (Eugene Perry, Class of 1969). Also, Danieley started the 4 – 1 – 4 semester to assist struggling students to focus on one class in January, known as Winter Term. In the 1970’s, Danieley added women’s athletics. Danieley’s leadership style was described as the ‘boss.’ Jo Watts Williams stated, “I was Dr. Danieley’s student and then worked in the president’s office with him.” Danieley spoke of the social and political protest times of the 1960’s and 1970’s. Jo Watts Williams spoke of how Elon College students were protesting and were planning to take over Dr. Danieley’s home, instead he (Danieley) joined the protest march. Shots of Barber and Danieley walking together near the Alamance building and Danieley spoke of his North Carolina Republican leadership positions. Danieley visited his old homestead – five miles outside of Elon, North Carolina, with Barber. He spoke of his daily responsibilities working on the Danieley farm, as a child. Danieley spoke of the two-room school house that he attended as a child with no heat or running water. Danieley spoke of some of his favorite teachers. Danieley was the Valedictorian of his senior class. A photograph of Dr. Danieley and classmates who stood at the Elon “Senior Oak” tree can be seen. Danieley spoke on how he met his future bride, Verona Daniels Danieley (also the Valedictorian of her Beaufort, North Carolina senior class). Danieley followed by stating, “She has been my roommate for 61 years.” After 8 years of teaching at Elon College, he departed for Johns Hopkins University to learn more about research and bring it back to Elon College. However, Elon College Board of Trustees brought Dr. Danieley back to Elon sooner as Elon College’s 6th president in February 1957 a young age of 32 years old. At 48 years old (1973), Danieley stepped down as Elon College’s 6th President. Danieley returned to Elon College’s chemistry classroom. Barber stated, “At 85 years old, Danieley is still an icon (Danieley passed away in November of 2016 at 92 years old).” Danieley was honored as Elon’s first living Founder on Founder’s Day. Jo Watts Williams stated that Danieley could have gone to any college/university, but he never gave it a thought. Danieley stated, “You can’t retire if you are not tired.” Some names included: Jimmy Stewart, (no first name, Barney), Julie Morse, Rich Landesberg, Drake Springer, Randy Gyllenhaal, Brandon Echter, Ben Donnelly, The Danieley Family, Katie Nash, Kimberly Walker, Linda Lashendock, Julie Prouty, Jason (J) McMerty, Michael Radutzky, Sara Kuzmarov, and 60 Minutes-CBS 60 Minutes – an American newsmagazine television program broadcast
