Because of their joint survival, joint development, and joint durability the relationship between West Virginia and its namesake university resembles something akin to a marriage both of convenience and love. It is hoped that this account will bring to its readers an understanding of the diverse and complex elements which shaped this state university and the dynamic personalities that brought it to life. This book is an informative, comprehensive look at the school, its history and its people. This retrospect includes: - A complete index of every person, place and event referenced in the text - Authentic pictures dating back decades... see University Avenue as it appeared over fifty years ago! - In-depth histories of every campus, building and program
