Synopsis
On Scholarship: From An Empty Room at PrincetonGerald L. Cooper is a Norfolk resident and Lancaster County native. He had a career in education as an administrator, counselor and teacher in three Virginia prep schools? Christchurch, Blue Ridge and Woodberry Forest. He then headed a North Carolina day school and later directed development at a historically black college: Winston-Salem State University. He ended his career by serving as executive director of Norfolk's Tidewater Scholarship Foundation and ACCESS program, a 501 (c) (3) organization. After retiring in 2000, Cooper assisted former governor Gerald Baliles in starting a college access program in rural Patrick County, west of Martinsville, Va. He then began to write a remembrance of his life and career, titled "On Scholarship: From An Empty Room at Princeton." He includes growing up in rural Lancaster County, Virginia, getting an education in public elementary and private high school. Cooper is a 1953 graduate of Christchurch School, and attended two public colleges: three semesters at William and Mary and then he transferred to the University of Virginia, where he earned BA and MEd degrees. Cooper closes the book with a chapter titled "Leading to Diversity at the University of Virginia," in which he discusses progress in economic and racial diversity at the University, from the time he enrolled there in 1955 until John T. Casteen III ended his twenty-year presidency in 2009. Cooper also describes his work as a development officer and board member in various types of schools, colleges and other nonprofits. Gerald L. Cooper's closing statement: "I hope others will learn from my experiences, starting with losing my father when I was ten and being nurtured by the town of Lancaster Court House. "Folks may read my book and benefit from a slice of real life. For example, there is useful information for students and parents on gaining access to financial aid for college. Also, I give examples of raising funds for various kinds of non-profit organizations and working with a variety of board members. "There are also descriptions of how effective leaders in our state of Virginia have achieved high goals, using unselfish and non-partisan methods. It would be wonderful if we could get back to that unselfish, non-partisan approach here in the Old Dominion in the 21st century. "I'm hopeful for the resurgence of those principles, and it all starts with education. One of the chapters in my book is titled 'Getting an Education, Not the Confederacy,' and that's a good place to start.""My last three chapters chronicle the philanthropic and educational work of Joshua P. Darden, Frank Batten Sr., Gerald L. Baliles, and John T. Casteen III," said Cooper. "These are four true 'Fine Sons of Virginia' who collectively have had more impact for the educational and economic well-being and leadership of our commonwealth than any other group in our history. At least, they're unequalled since legends walked these Virginia lands, bearing the names Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Mason and Monroe.
