1. Although Thomas Jefferson did not
begin the effort of designing the University of
Virginia until late in his life,
the education
of the common man had occupied his thoughts for
decades. He believed ignorance (无知) to be the
enemy of freedom, and he wanted to correct
what he considered to be the weaknesses of
educational institutions
(机构) modeled on
European settings. He imagined that an “academical
village” around a tree-lined lawn would
provide an ideal setting in which to pursue
higher education. The center of such a village
would be a Temple of
Knowledge that would
house the university library.
When Virginia
decided to set up a state university in 1818, the
retired U.S. President finally was able to devote
his
talent, time, and energy to creating this
new kind of educational institution. By the time
he was finished with his
design, Jefferson had
invented an entirely new American setting for
higher education: the college campus.
In 1812,
Jefferson chose to begin building his “academical
village,” the University of Virginia, in
Charlottesville,
VA, far away from the city
center. He intended this spot to promote learning
because it was natural and unspoiled,
and far
from anything that could distract or harm the
students. The University consists of two rows of
houses, five
on each side, leading to a main
building. This main building, the Rotunda, became
the most important part of the
University,
because it contained the library. By focusing his
entire institution on the library, instead of
around the
church, Jefferson revolutionized
American university architecture.
Jefferson’s
aim was to create a new institutional form for his
ideal educational system, a system he thought
should
give every citizen the information he
needs for carrying out his daily business. This
new approach to citizensip and
education
demanded a new type of university, one where
students and professors could coexist and share
ideas. He
attempted to create this environment
by combining the professors’ houses and students’
classrooms, and linking all
the buildings with
covered walkways so intellectual exchanges between
departments could go on smoothly.
Jefferson
had also recognized the importance of the
students’ whole life, and given much thought and
planning to
the students’ dining, living, and
exercise facilities (设施).
