His school education was in his home town of Lewisville and then, after graduating from school, he entered the University of Texas. He did not embark on a mathematics course at university, however, for his first love was chemistry and it was this topic which he studied for his first degree and he was awarded his A.B. in Chemistry in 1925. Robert Moore had been appointed as associate professor at the University of Texas in 1920 and it was Moore who taught Whyburn calculus early in his university studies. Moore quickly saw the mathematical potential in Whyburn, and Whyburn was soon attending further mathematics courses given by Moore who encouraged him greatly towards the study of mathematics. Even before he obtained his first degree in chemistry, Whyburn was undertaking research in mathematics with Moore . Of course with Moore having a deep interest in topology , that was the direction that Whyburn took and it was to become the topic of his research throughout his life.

14. Floyd Graduate Fellowships in mathematics. He started as a student of gordon whyburn, the headof the department, doing analytic topology. He became interested http://www.math.virginia.edu/grad/floyd/floyd.htm

Ed Floyd came to the University of Virginia to do graduate work in mathematics after receiving his bachelor's degree in 1943 from the University of Alabama. Upon completing his doctorate in 1948, he went to Princeton University as an instructor. He returned to Virginia the next year to join the faculty, remaining at the University throughout the rest of his career. The early years of Ed's career were devoted to research in mathematics. He started as a student of Gordon Whyburn, the head of the department, doing analytic topology. He became interested in groups acting on spaces, which became the dominant theme in his work. In conjunction with Pierre Conner, he created the subject of equivariant cobordism. By the mid-1960's, he had become one of the outstanding topologists in the world. In 1966, Ed became Robert C. Taylor Professor of Mathematics, and assumed the chairmanship of the mathematics department when Gordon Whyburn retired as head of the department that year due to ill health. Ed led the transition from a small personal department to a larger department in a growing university. His three years as chairman were the beginning of a long career of administration and service at the University. In 1974, Ed was appointed Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, and in 1981 was named Vice President and Provost of the University. In 1981, he also received the University of Virginia's highest honor, the Thomas Jefferson Award for contributions to the University. Ed returned to teaching and research in 1986, after his long period in administration.

ACQUISITION: Boxes 1-22, the official records of the Office of the Chancellor of the Woman's College of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, have been on campus in various locations. Some of the biographical material in box 22 was originally in the vertical file in the University Archives. BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION: Gordon Williams Blackwell, son of a Baptist minister, was born on April 27, 1911 in Timmonsville, S. C. and grew up in Spartanburg, S. C. A graduate of Furman University (1932), he holds the M.A. degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (1933) and the M.A. (1937) and Ph.D. (1940) degrees from Harvard University. From 1937 to 1941 he was head of the Department of Sociology at Furman and a staff member of the Greenville County Council for Community Development. In 1941, he came to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill as associate professor of sociology and research associate at the Institute for Research in Social Science. In 1942 Blackwell became research professor and director of the Institute. Blackwell continued in these positions until he was appointed Chancellor of the Woman's College of the University of North Carolina (UNCG) in 1957.
