Single shot from an abandoned playground I found about a week ago and
decided to revisit. The field is located off of Garfield Avenue near the Virginia University
of Lynchburg. Tracked with a 30-second [slightly modified] excerpt from Doveman's ".......".
About the VUL: In 1886 the Virginia Baptist State Convention founded the Lynchburg Baptist Seminary as an institution of "self-reliance," "racial pride," and "faith." It first offered classes in 1890 as the renamed Virginia Seminary. Under the direction of the second President, Mr. Gregory Willis Hayes, from 1891 - 1906, the school became a pioneer in the fields of African-American education. In 1900, the school was reincorporated as the Virginia Theological Seminary and College and in 1962 became Virginia Seminary and College. The college was renamed and incorporated as Virginia University of Lynchburg in 1996.
Historically, Virginia University of Lynchburg has held the position that, in order to have academic freedom, the concept of financial independence must be incarnated into the hearts and minds of the African Americans and others in our global community who support her.
