Description
Select...
Folsom issued the proclamation on the same day that Roberts received an honorary doctorate from the University of Alabama in Huntsville. The text of the proclamation commends Roberts' service to the university and the community, noting that "Dr. Roberts combined her job of teaching, research and service with a much broader sense of responsibility which led her to do above and beyond what she was asked."
Frances Roberts, shown at center, was named to the Madison County Women's Scroll of Honor in 1976. According to the
Huntsville Times
, recipients of the honor "are native to or identified most closely with Huntsville and Madison County and who have made significant contributions within their professional fields of activity or concern." Roberts was honored alongside Huntsville artist and poet Maria Howard Weeden (1847-1905). The award is a project of the Girl Scouts of North-Central Alabama.
Holliman was one of Roberts' students at Huntsville High School. She describes her first days at Randolph-Macon College and thanks Roberts for her excellent teaching.
In this letter, Jones thanks Roberts, then a history teacher at Huntsville High School, for the opportunity to meet her students on their recent trip to Washington, D.C.
Photo from the
Huntsville Times
. The photo was taken for an article about the honorary doctor of humane letters that Roberts received from UAH on December 12, 1993.
Roberts received a Bachelor of Science from Alabama State Teachers College in 1937. The college is known today as the University of West Alabama.
The letter notifies Roberts of her appointment as an instructor in history at the University of Alabama Huntsville Center. Morton notes that Roberts was to receive an honorarium of $200 for teaching January 6-March 20, 1950.
This exhibit was made possible by a grant from the Alabama Humanities Alliance in collaboration with the UAH History Department and the UAH Humanities Center.
This is a typed list of the journal subscriptions for the library in 1962-1963 with additional journals written at the bottom of the list. At the top of the document, there is a written note to "Dr. Roberts," presumably history professor Frances Roberts, requesting she renew all of the subscriptions.
This photo was taken at the time of Roberts' doctoral graduation from the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. She was the first woman to receive a Ph.D. in history from the University of Alabama. On either side of her are Howard C. Elliot, Jr., Ph.D. in biochemistry, and Elmer Dean Calloway, Ph.D. in chemistry.
This virtual talk includes a lecture from Dr. Tom Reidy, editor of the 2020 edition of Frances Roberts' 1956 dissertation, with comments and moderation by UAH Head of Archives and Special Collections Reagan Grimsley and History Department Chair Stephen Waring. The talk was given as part of an Alabama Humanities Alliance grant, in partnership with the UAH M. Louis Salmon Library, the UAH Humanities Center, and the UAH History Department.
UAH awarded Roberts, who was at the time Professor Emerita in the History Department, an honorary doctorate in December 1993.
