Now Co me into Focus At a time when Robert E. Lee might have been licking his wounds he was, instead, occu- pied with the task of using his magnificent talents in the educational world. With this idea in mind, the CAVALIER staff studied the letters of this great Virginian, applying his precepts to facets of life at GW. Throughout the pages of the CAVALIER, these challenging bits of wisdom will be presented as ideals which can serve as guidelines for those who mold young lives and for those who are in the role of students. This was a man who by his personal honor, courtesy, gentlemanly conduct, and educational foresight turned a virtual Southern defeat into a triumphant re- conciliation of North and South.

Varied Activities at GW CAVALIER ’66 has chosen to center its theme around Robert E. Lee, not as the name of a junior high school serving as a large feeder for George Washington, but rather as the name of an educator whose ideals and ideas concerning the education of youth are especially appropriate. When the 1965-66 session began at GW, Dan- ville was rounding out its part in the national Civil War Centennial commemoration. It seemed natural, therefore, to form a connection between the Centennial and GW. Realizing that General Lee wrote prolific letters revealing his concepts of education dur- ing his presidency of Washington College at Lexington, Virginia, the staff noted his courage and wisdom as he turned what might have been total defeat into an opportunity for exemplify- . ing the highest standards for education.
