词条 | James Isbell Armstrong |
释义 |
Armstrong led Middlebury through the national political upheaval of the 1960s. On campus, student life for men and women was fully integrated for the first time.[5] He created the month-long Winter Term which allows students to spend four weeks in January to enroll in one intensive course or pursue independent research or internships.[6] Armstrong is credited with laying the groundwork for Middlebury's emergence as a nationally renowned institution, significantly growing the College's enrollment, endowment and physical plant. During Armstrong's tenure, the campus saw new styles of architecture reflecting changing national taste, including several controversial buildings. These include the Christian A. Johnson Memorial Building, the Science Center (demolished in 2001), and what has become known as Freeman International Center; all departed from the campus' traditional Georgian Revival style by adopting Brutalist architectural forms and exposed concrete.[7] Armstrong died on December 16, 2013, aged 94.[8] References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=8yifAAAAMAAJ&q=%22James+Isbell+Armstrong%22+1919&dq=%22James+Isbell+Armstrong%22+1919&hl=en&ei=Zsm1TeSPNITn0QGUifmLCQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CC4Q6AEwAA|title=The strength of the hills|publisher=|accessdate=18 December 2015}} {{s-start}}{{succession box|title=President of Middlebury College|before=Samuel Somerville Stratton|after=Olin Clyde Robison|years=1963–1975}}{{s-end}}{{Middlebury College presidents}}{{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Armstrong, James}}{{US-academic-administrator-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.middlebury.edu/newsroom/node/464874 |title=James Armstrong, Middlebury's 12th President, Passes Away |publisher=Middlebury.edu |date=2013-12-13 |accessdate=2013-12-17}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://etcweb.princeton.edu/CampusWWW/Companion/college_presidents.html|title=College and University Presidents.|publisher=|accessdate=18 December 2015}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.princeton.edu/~gchouse/ref/list.html |title=Lists of People |publisher=Princeton.edu |date= |accessdate=2013-12-17}} 5. ^ {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080724004851/http://www.middlebury.edu/about/president/emeriti/james_armstrong.htm |date=July 24, 2008 }} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://middleburycampus.com/2003/11/13/alumni-reminisce-on-winters-past/|title=Alumni Reminisce on Winters Past|work=The Middlebury Campus|accessdate=18 December 2015}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://midddigital.middlebury.edu/walking_history/college_campus/page_5.html|title=A Walking History of Middlebury / The College Campus|publisher=|accessdate=18 December 2015}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.middlebury.edu/newsroom/node/464874|title=James Armstrong, Middlebury's 12th President, Passes Away|work=Middlebury|accessdate=18 December 2015}} 6 : 1919 births|2013 deaths|Princeton University faculty|Presidents of Middlebury College|Princeton University alumni|People from Princeton, New Jersey |
