Opened in 1961 as an extension of the College of William and Mary in Virginia; Christopher Newport University (CNU) had humble origins in an abandoned downtown Newport News public school. Located in historic Hampton Roads; the institution was named for the 17th-century English mariner who helped establish the Jamestown colony. Now Virginias youngest public university; Christopher Newport is a thriving educational institution with small class sizes; dedicated faculty; and world-class facilities. CNUs modern mission is to educate leaders for the 21st century; and it has quickly become a university of choice for students throughout Virginia and beyond. This unique volume; containing more than 200 photographs; is the first comprehensive look at CNUs history ever published. It chronicles the institutions dramatic story using images from the universitys archives; published sources; and private collections.
