Elmer Louis Kayser was a professor emeritus of European history at George Washington University. He earned bachelor's and master's degrees at GWU and his doctorate in history at Columbia University. His professional life was centered around George Washington University. He was one of the first to receive the George Washington Award, which was established in 1976 to recognize those who make the university a better place to be. In 1984, GW established the Elmer Louis Kayser professorship in history. From 1962 until his death he was the historian of the university. He published two volumes on the subject, "Bricks Without Straw," a history, and "A Medical Center," which recounts the development of medical education at the school. The George Washington University (GW, GWU, or George Washington) is a private research university in Washington, D.C. It was charted in 1821 by an act of the United States Congress. George Washington, the 1st President of the United States, advocated the establishment of a national university in the U.S. capital in his first State of the Union address in 1790 and continued to promote this idea throughout his career and until his death. In his will, Washington left shares in the Potomac Company to endow the university. However, due to the company's financial difficulties, funds were raised independently. On 9 February 1821, the university was founded by an Act of Congress, making it one of only 5 universities in the United States with a Congressional charter., Appleton-Century-Crofts, 1970, 2.75<
