Blacksburg is dominated economically and demographically by the presence of Virginia Tech (Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University)., John Redd Hutcheson ( January 13 , 1886 -- January 13 , 1962 ) was the ninth President of Virginia Tech. He served from January 12 , 1945 to August 12 , 1947 . VPI alumnus John Redd Hutcheson , known as Dr. Jack , agreed to take the job as president of VPI only for a few years . A former school teacher , high school principal , and university instructor , Hutcheson started working for the Virginia Agricultural Extension Service in 1914 as a livestock specialist and became its director in 1919 , developing a national reputation as an agricultural leader . Shortly after the affable Hutcheson took over the presidency on August 14 , 1945 , Japan surrendered to end World War II , and a two - day celebration ensued . When the fall quarter began soon thereafter , enrollment nearly doubled that of the previous quarter . The new president worked to prepare the campus for the influx of returning veterans as the college moved from wartime to peacetime conditions . The veterans generally had no interest in joining the corps of cadets , and for the first time , during winter quarter 1946 , civilians outnumbered cadets on campus . With the explosion in civilian students , 3,100 living on campus and another 900 day students came a need for housing . To help resolve the problem for married veterans , the college installed a trailer court that students called Vetsville surrounding the Solitude House , which was converted into a community center to serve the trailer court residents . Two additional trailer courts that students called Cassell Heights after financial and business manager Stuart K. Cassell followed in the area east of present - day Cassell Coliseum . The college also rented dormitory space at the Radford Arsenal to house other students and converted several buildings there into classrooms ; the new location became known as Rad - Tech. During this period , the board of visitors created a vice president position , which was filled by Walter S. Newman , to handle curriculum development . Hutcheson himself created an office of admissions to assist C. P. `` Sally '' Miles , dean of the college , with the thousands of applications for admission that poured into the school . Under Hutcheson , VPI added a master of science in applied mechanics , permitted day students to drive their own automobiles to and from designated campus parking lots , resumed activities including football , and student organizations that had been dropped during World War II , and created an office of student affairs . The board of visitors approved the final plans for an alumni war memorial and the proposed Mall leading to the memorial . The school received the first invitation ever issued to a Virginia college team to play in a bowl game , the Sun Bowl on New Year 's Day in 1947 . In December 1946 Hutcheson was hospitalized , and Newman , working with Cassell , took over his duties . In May 1947 Newman was named acting president . Concerned about Hutcheson 's health , the board voted on August 12 to relieve him of his presidential duties but elected him to the new position of chancellor and named Newman president , effective September 1 , 1947 . Hutcheson recovered , and in 1948 he became president of the newly established VPI Educational Foundation . He retired as chancellor in 1956 to devote full attention to the foundation , which he served until his death on January 23 , 1962 . Hutcheson Hall , an academic building on the Virginia Tech Campus is named in honor of Hutcheson ., Subject: john redd hutcheson, Relation: educated_at, Options: (A) undergraduate education (B) virginia polytechnic institute and state university
