BUDGET\n\nMiami\u2019s biggest year in terms of new buildings completed and occupied will raise the enrollment to an estimated record of 7,500, with increases in enrollment at the five academic centers bringing the total to more than 11,000 students.\n\nIt follows that fees and room-board-bills of those added students will boost Miami's budget above ,000,000 for the first limo.\n\nCuller Hall, for physics, mathematics and aeronautics, is to be occupied for the beginning of the second semester.\n\nCoeds To Move\n\nThis makes space available to other departments in Upham and Irvin Halls, thus making it possible to tear down the Faculty Office Building, converted World War II barracks near Irvin.\n\nDuring spring vacation, co-eds now occupying Stanton, Anderson, and Hepburn Halls will be moved Into Women's Hall No. 8 and the new section of MacCracken Hall.\n\n\n[...]\n\nBuilding Part of Plan\n\nThe new buildings are part of a long-range capital plan which Miami has submitted to the Governor through finance director James Maloon.\n\nThis plan includes a request for funds in 1961 for a building in Dayton and in 1963 for a building in Butler County. Other needs Include a dramatics arts building with auditorium, increased library facilities and completion of Upham Hall.\n\nEmphasis on Ph.D. Program\n\nNew buildings tor geology-geography, education and music, plus an assembly hall tor concerts and basketball arc included in the plan.\n\nAcademically. 1961 will see increased emphasis on the P.D. program which Miami is conducting with Ohio State, and the strengthening of the honors program for the superior student.\n\n[...]\n\" class=\"wp-image-737\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-169-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-169-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-169-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-169-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-169-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-169.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a05c034bee98&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05c034bee98\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-170-1024x576.png\" alt=\"BOARD OF TRUSTEES MINUTES\nJanuary 28, 1961\n\nMr. Fairley moved and Mr. Hiestand seconded that Resolution R61-57 be adopted.

(We are disregarding of course the fact that through technology man\u2019s image may be shown in many places at once.)\n\nBut we at Miami, resourceful as we are, have found a way to beat this tenet of life. We have done this through the simple mechanism of failing to regulate and standardize the various clocks on campus.\n\nFor instance, it is possible to leave Irvin Hall at 8:50 (we defer the choice of a.m. or p.m. to you) and arrive at the library by 8:47. (Your a.m. or p.m. decision must of course remain constant.)\n\nCarrying on in this same line of thinking, it is also possible to get your girl a campus for being late and then leave her residence hall only to hear the Beta Bells strike the hour of ten.\n\nThe lunch hour is another institution that is seriously endangered by our current campus clock situation. It is possible to walk from the center of campus to the far South Quad in ten minutes and thus be on time for the noon meal. But when the dining hall clocks are seven minutes faster than those of the academic buildings, it is near an impossibility to arrive for lunch on time.\n\nHumorous as these situations may appear on paper, in reality they are very disconcerting. It is not always an easy job to follow rules and regulations when the breaks are with you. However, when even the clocks are set against you, it is possibly the best course of action to wave the white flag and admit defeat.\n\nOne may rightfully ask, Why does this situation exist?\n\nThe answer to this question depends on what clock you are talking about. In the older academic buildings, the clocks may be wearing out from age. In some of our newer buildings, all that may be needed is a periodic adjustment of the timepieces. In a few cases it may be necessary to speak to individual house managers and inform them that their buildings are not islands unto themselves.\n\nWe hope that those with the power to act will hear our pleas and will return the University community to a single, standard time zone.\n\n\n\" class=\"wp-image-744\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-176-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-176-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-176-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-176-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-176-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-176.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a05c034c07be&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05c034c07be\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-177-1024x576.png\" alt=\"STATE ISSUE NO. 1\n\nFor the next six weeks Miami students will find themselves immersed in a campaign to promote State Issue No. 1.\n\n[\u2026]\n\nThe funds would come from the continuation of a 1955 penny-a-pack tax on cigarettes that is expected to expire in 1968. The need for the funds is illustrated in the fact that colleges and universities are promoting the continuation of the tax now because the money is needed now. If successful on Nov. 5, the state may borrow and distribute the \u00a7250 million immediately.\n\nThe issue provides for the construction of academic buildings that Miami certainly needs at this point. Increased enrollment and living quarters are fine and necessary. However, a student cannot obtain a good education, one of discussion, argument and thought, when he is forced to attend a literature class of 60 students. Class scheduling has become a major problem because no available classrooms exist. Academic facilities are cramped and worn, especially in Upham, Hughes and Irvin Halls and the Library.\n\nConcerning other grants, Ohio is eligible for federal funds if the state provides % of the cost of construction. Unless State Issue No. 1 is passed, Ohio will not have enough money to match the federal aid.\n\nHow unfortunate that higher education must be subjected to a popularity contest. It seems that education is still considered a luxury, not a necessity, a factor that can easily be ignored and left to the popular vote.\n\nAnd what happens if State Issue No. 1 fails to pass? The legislature will not pass an appropriations bill when it reconvenes in December. Will it be necessary to arrange a system of halfday sessions so that each college may have two shifts of students? If the influx of students continues to grow, and is not met with adequate academic space, a catastrophe is in sight. Miami is already mapping out a trimester program to increase the number of students receiving diplomas in the least possible time. At the same time, funds must be contributed to the five academic centers, especially for classroom expansion in Middletown, and the new joint university. with Ohio State University now under construction in Dayton.\n\n[\u2026]\n\" class=\"wp-image-745\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-177-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-177-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-177-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-177-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-177-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-177.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a05c034c0b3a&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05c034c0b3a\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-178-1024x576.png\" alt=\"RECENSIO\n\nArts and Science -

It simply means your arc one of the 11 percent of Americans who are left-handed. It also means that if you attend Miami and take a lecture course in almost any of her beautiful, modern, well-equipped classrooms you will practically have to stand on your head to take notes. For a left-handed person to write on a right-handed desk chair requires utmost patience and co-ordination. He must drag his hand from the left to the right of his paper instead of swinging it along with the elbow as a pivot as right-handers do.\n\n[\u2026]\n\nMiami can do nothing to change a person\u2019s natural writing tendencies but they could make it a little more comfortable for the &quot;marked ones' . There is a terrible paucity of left-handed desks.\n\nThis statement could be called an over-generalization for there arc some rooms blessed with left-handed desks. But as things usually go, these rooms are half filled with them. First floor of Irvin abounds with them while Harrison Hall suffers in silence. \n\nIn these times great steps are being made toward universal equality. Wouldn\u2019t it be great if lefthanders could gain the freedom from acute back ache and needlessly messy notes.\n\" class=\"wp-image-749\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-181-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-181-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-181-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-181-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-181-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-181.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a05c034c19ea&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05c034c19ea\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-182-1024x576.png\" alt=\"EXISTENTIAL SYMBOL? SNAFU? SIDEWALK RAISES EYEBROWS\nBy Chuck Fortier\n\nIn Pittsburgh, Pa., there is a bridge which is approached by broad entrance ramps, sweeps grandly across the Allegheny River \u2014and stops.\n\nA similar condition at Minmi, fortunately on a smaller scale, has been raising eyebrows and questions among students for the past year. On the sidewalk directly northeast of Irvin Hall a turnoff branches bravely away in the direction of Harrison Hall \u2014 and stops.\n\nOne student described the function of the truncated path as being \u2018\u2018a symbol of existential man.&quot;\n\nA more common reaction of students is to regard it as a &quot;typical Miami snafu.&quot; Some have suggested that a &quot;No Exit&quot; sign be erected to warn unwary pedestrians of the situation.\n\nThe student cynicism is unjustified. As hard as it may be to credit, there is good reason for the apparently superfluous outgrowth on the walk. Two years ago, the Department of Maintenance undertook an extensive program of sidewalk construction and renovation.\n\nIncluded in the plans was a walk to connect the corner northeast of Irvin Hall with the north-south walk across the drive from Stoddard  Hall.\n\nThe intersection now In existence was laid down early last year with a view to completing the walk later.\n\n&quot;However.&quot; said Arthur Conrad, Director of Grounds, &quot;other jobs came up that we had to do first.&quot;\n\n&quot;We could get a lot more of this new construction done if we didn\u2019t have to do so much repair work,&quot; he added.\n\nMuch of the work of Conrad\u2019s crew consists of repairing damage to University grounds. One particular item which takes a lot of their time is the repetitious replacement of green fences destroyed by students.\n\n&quot;We have just ordered 4000 feet of lumber for fences.&quot; said Conrad. This will cost the University about 0.\n\n\u201dIt\u2019s interesting to notice,\u201d Conrad added, &quot;that there was no path worn across the grass there before the end of the new walk was put in. Now there is.&quot;\n\" class=\"wp-image-750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-182-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-182-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-182-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-182-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-182-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-182.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a05c034c1dca&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05c034c1dca\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-183-1024x576.png\" alt=\"EXISTENTIAL SYMBOL?

Replacing Professor Wright will bo the newly-appointed coordinator of student publications, Hon Geiser, who also takes over as advisor to Recensio and Miami Dimensions. &quot;1 don\u2019t suppose anybody else in the United States has been crazy enough to be an advisor to a college paper lor 25 years,\u201d Professor Wright stated. &quot;But I liked it.\u201d In his heart the 6l-year-old Journalist will probably consider himself a reporter first, last and always. But in and out of class, he proudly refers to himself as &quot;the old professor.\u201d\n\n[...]\n\nTwenty-five years ago the professor\u2019s office was in Benton Hall, he reported, and the Student office was &quot;down in the bowels of Irvin Hall&quot; where any time it rained the water would get in.\n\nProfessor Wright looked back on those times as &quot;happy days\u201d when student reporters took their copy up to Oxford Printing Company on bicycles, then rode the bikes back down Slant Walk and through the south door and down the hall of Irvin.\n\nFrom the beginning, professor Wright said, he has insisted that the paper be kept free of administrative control. &quot;I believe in giving the kids the freedom to make mistakes,\u201d he stated. Professor Wright said that even though he would &quot;blow his stack\u201d at some of the things the paper wanted to do ho defended its right to do them.\n\n[...]\n\" class=\"wp-image-754\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-186-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-186-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-186-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-186-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-186-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-186.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a05c034c2c76&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05c034c2c76\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-187-1024x576.png\" alt=\"SAFETY CHIEF CALLS CAMPUS DEFENSE 'ADEQUATE\u2019; \n31 SHELTERS IN EXISTENCE\nBy Gary Luhr\n\nEd. Note: This the firnt tn a serles of articles by STUDENT staffer Gary Luhr on civil defense problems and preparedness for them on the Miami campus.\n\nThirty-one buildings on Miami\u2019s campus have been inspected and approved by Civil Defense offices to serve as protective shelters in the event of a national emergency.\n\nApproval was granted and suplies moved on campus in April this year following a recommendation by the Butler County Civil Defense office that existing facilities be made available for this purpose.\n\nAll of the shelters are underground and are identified by identical yellow and black &quot;Fallout Leiter&quot; signs.\n\nBuildings in which shelters exist Include Benton, Billings. Bishop, Brandon, Collins, Culler, Dodds, Dorsey, Flower, Gaskill, Hamilton, Harrison, Hiestand, Hepburn, Hughes, Irvin, the old library, MacCracken, McFarland, McGuffey, McMillan, Ogden, Porter, Richard, Reid, Robertson, University Center, Upham, Withrow and Wells.\n[\u2026]\n\nSupplies for all 31 buildings, including food, toilet and medical stock, are stored in two central on-campus locations. Radiological surveying equipment for Miami is currently on requisition.\n\nThe only shelter requirement not presently in storage is water, widen could not be kept for prolonged periods. Water cans are available, however, to be filled if and when needed. Supplies are inspected by Civil Defense officials and are replaced periodically. As the University expands, the amount of supplies on hand is increased.\n\nNew buildings at Miami are designed with the idea of the areas below ground serving as shelters. Facilities in new structures are inspected by Civil Defense officials as soon as possible once the buildings are completed.\n\nWallace Miller, superintendant of safety and security, has reported that present facilities are adequate for a university the size of Miami.\n\n[...]\n\" class=\"wp-image-755\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-187-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-187-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-187-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-187-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-187-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-187.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a05c034c300f&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05c034c300f\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-188-1024x576.png\" alt=\"DEPARTMENTS AND OFFICES IN IRVIN HALL AS OF 1967\n\nHistory\nFrench and Italian\nGerman and Russian\nSpanish and Portuguese\nLanguage Laboratory\n\" class=\"wp-image-756\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-188-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-188-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-188-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-188-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-188-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-188.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a05c034c33af&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05c034c33af\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-189-1024x576.png\" alt=\"FORCING THE ISSUE\n\nOhioans put their vote for progress in at least one place last Tuesday with the passage of Issue No. I. The state legislature now has the authority to issue bonds to the sum of 9 million on capital improvements on everything from pollution control to improving highway construction.\n\nNearly  million of that total is earmarked for Miami from a grand total of 0 million for educational and correctional institutions. Irregardless of the lumping together of the two categories, the money is needed and welcome at Miami.\n\nThe decision of what to do with the money is the University officials alone. The state legislature gives the money to Miami with no instructions on how it is to be allocated.\n\nPart of the money will be spent on capital improvements in already existing structures. Rejuvenation jobs in Irvin and old Hughes Hall should make the buildings far more useful and usable than they have been. But those are secondary expenditures.\n\nThe main decision now forced on Miami\u2019s financial wizards is what to do with the library situation. The future of the library at Miami is a two-way path, and now the University will have to decide which path to follow.\n\nPresent plans are for the funds to be used on Phase II expansion of the King Library. King Library, although only two years old, might become a relic before its time, however, if the other alternative is taken.\n\nThe \u201cother alternative\u2019\u2019 is a centralized library located somewhere on the northeast end of campus, probably on the present site of Miami Field.\n\nThe final decision might come from the state legislature in this case.\n\nIf Columbus promises Miami funds in the dimension of  million, you can probably expect immediate plans to be made for the centralized library. If Miami gets the  million it expects, continuation of Phase II will probably be the final commitment to King Library as the central library of sorts.

Irvin Hall was where the first African American faculty member, Heanon Wilkins, taught [Spanish and] Portuguese.\n\nWilkins is vital to Miami\u2019s story of Black faculty and staff since he represents the very first Black professor to be hired. Wilkins was born in 1927 in the Pittsburgh suburb of Neville Island, Pennsylvania. He started his career with Miami in 1968 when he was hired on as a professor of Spanish in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese. Wilkins taught at Miami University\u2019s Dayton campus for two years prior to arriving at the Oxford Campus in 1968 as Miami\u2019s first tenure-track African American professor. Soon after arriving at Miami Wilkins established and directed the Equal Opportunity Office on campus. This program was built to encourage minority students to come to Miami and then support their needs as they navigate life in college. He retired from teaching while still at Miami in 1992, then continued to live out the rest of his life in the city of Oxford.\n\" class=\"wp-image-758\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-190-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-190-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-190-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-190-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-190-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-190.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a05c034c3ab7&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05c034c3ab7\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-191-1024x576.png\" alt=\"DR.

The entire statement was published in the Feb. 18 issue of the STUDENT.\n\nPaul Payne, president of the BSAA, read the handout to the class and as Prof. Harris G. Warren, chairman of the History department, arose to speak, the students began filing out of the classroom.\n\nThe group proceeded to 207 McGuffey to discuss the problem and to await the arrival of President Phillip Shriver who had agreed to be present for the meeting.\n\nDuring the interim, Payne expressed some of the Black students feelings.\n\n\u201cThis is a white universityand we are tired of the run around. The university needs black people. If anything is going to be done about it, it must be done now. We are not here to jump off and cause trouble - we are here for an education.\u201d\n\nWhen Shriver arrived, Payne reiterated again the Black students dissatisfaction of the priority system established by the history department and asked Shriver why a black professor for Black history had not been hired when the promise had been made last year to begin a search for one.\n\nShriver responded that \u201cthe authorization was given last spring for the department to begin a search for qualified people. Five offers were extended and all five were turned down. Two gave money as the prime reason for refusal, two said that they were happy where they were, and the fifth wanted to finish her graduate work.\u201d\n\nWhen questioned why the Black history professorship took third priority behind British history and ancient culture, Shriver explained that \u201cThe history department concluded that they must fill existing \n\n\" class=\"wp-image-760\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-192-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-192-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-192-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-192-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-192-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-192.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a05c034c4440&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05c034c4440\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-193-1024x576.png\" alt=\"LACK OF BLACK HISTORIAN TRIGGERS BSAA WALKOUT - Continued\n\nvacancies before they could fill other positions.\u201d\n\nOne point which Shriver kept repeating was that the history department was looking for someone of Ph D. caliber to fill the position, a point which proved unsatisfactory to the whole assemblage.\n\nProf. Ralph Stone of the history department commented, \u201cI think that we are hung up on certifications. The position should be filled on the basis of a man as a scholar.\u201d\n\nIt was also announced that  Profs.

We must look at their transcripts and records. We can\u2019t take a chance on someone who has had no previous experience.\u201d\n\nThe Black students suggested several avenues open in the search for a black historian. They suggested looking at black universities and junior colleges or the NAACP and CORE tor possible recruits.\n\nThe meeting as a whole was a rehash of the points presented during the meeting earlier with Shriver.\n\" class=\"wp-image-761\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-193-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-193-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-193-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-193-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-193-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-193.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a05c034c47fd&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05c034c47fd\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-194-1024x576.png\" alt=\"LACK OF BLACK HISTORIAN TRIGGERS BSAA WALKOUT - Continued\n\nIn an interview earlier this week about the situation, Warren was asked if ho felt that anything was accomplished at the Tuesday meeting with the BSAA Executive Committee.\n\n\u201c1 don\u2019t know what was accomplished. They asked a great many questions and we tried to give them some answers, but whether anything was accomplished or not I really haven\u2019t the faintest idea.\u201d stated Warren.\n\nConcerning the search committee of Shaw, Jcllison and Kirby, Warren had these comments. \u201cThis is a search committee created for the purpose of assisting in finding a person to teach the course. And it is not set up specifically to find a black to teach Black history. We are not committed to employ either a white or a black. We are looking for a person who is qualified.\u201d\n\nWarren also stated that he felt that the class did not give Prof. Rodabaugh an opportunity to develop the course the way he was going to teach it. The Black students felt that the course was drifting more toward minority problems such as the sociology course all ready offered, rather than a history of the Black people of America.\n\nThe BSAA wants the history department to hire a Negro to teach the Black history course. Warren\u2019s personal opinion was that \u201csome people feel that blacks arc able to relate to other blacks better than whites. Remember that this is a course which would be taken by whites as well as by blacks. Now you have a problem of a black being able to relate to the whites. 1 think that a white teacher can relate to a black students just as easily as a black teacher can relate to a white student.\u201d\n\nWarren expressed another touchy problem that might arise if the history department did not find u qualified person.\n\n\u201cSupposing we employ a black person to teach the course and to teach other courses too. Now supposing that this person turns out to be a very poor teacher and we get a tremendous number of complaints from students about this person and it is a black person. If at the end of the year we refuse to retain that individual then we will be accused of racism because we decided that that person is not qualified to teach.\u201d\" class=\"wp-image-762\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-194-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-194-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-194-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-194-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-194-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-194.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a05c034c4b93&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05c034c4b93\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-195-1024x576.png\" alt=\"MILLETT TO RECOMMEND BONUS TO MIAMI AT BOARD OF REGENTS SESSION TODAY\nBy David Pollak, Editor\n\nA proposal to tap additional funds for Miami to help reduce the loss of out-of-state subsidies is to be brought up before the Board of Regents meeting today in Columbus.\n\nPresident Phillip R. Shriver expects the recommendation which would give Miami an added 0,000 in the budget to cover about half the amount lost by the University through the out-of-state subsidy cut.\n\nMiami is one of three universities scheduled to receive the bonus aid recommended by Chancellor John D. Millett. Ohio University is to receive an added .2 million, and Youngstown an added 0,000.\n\n\u201cThe added revenues would definitely soften the blow,\u201d Pres. Shriver stated.\n\nAlso slated for passage today is a recommendation which would allot  million to Miami for capital improvements over the next six years.\n\nOf the  million, a total of  million would be earmarked for completion of Phases II and III of King Library, with .5 million of that expenditure to be spent within the next two years.\n\nMiami originally requested .4 million for capital improvements, but the figure released today represents a significant increase of the .2 million total first announced by Governor James A. Rhodes.\n\nIn addition to library completion, the funds will be earmarked for remodeling McGuffey Hall and renovation of Upham, Kreger and Irvin Halls.\n\n\u201cThe chancellor told me, however, that there was room for flexibility in the amounts to be spent on each need,\u201d the president added.\n\n[\u2026] \n\nAl this time no bill has officially been introduced to the legislature on higher education, but the president said that individual legislators may be waiting for today\u2019s Regents meeting for any last minute inclusions.\n\n\u201cThere is a strong possibility that the proposal will be officially introduced after our meeting today,\u201d the president said.\n\" class=\"wp-image-763\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-195-1024x576.png
