They decided they'd go into Rowan Hall, they'd sit down, and they'd stick it out and make alliance. \n\nCE: So after the Rowan Hall event that evening, there was a call for a strike, right? \n\nRM: The next day. \n\nCE: The next day, right. Several departments put out flyers about that and individuals and other groups. Again, the records are very interesting. Fraternities are writing furious notes about what happened in the fraternity houses. One of the commentators on this period of time, an historian, has said that it was unique in the history of student life in the country because different segments of the student community all came together around opposition to the war and the draft, particularly, and then the reaction of institutions nationwide as this example here, perhaps, illustrates. For once all the different sub-communities of the student population got sort of unified. Was that your experience? \n\nRM: In the lingo of the day, the authorities and the police riot--which I think you have to say, it was a police riot, they were out of control, nobody was overseeing the police--succeeded in radicalizing students who had been largely apolitical. The Phi Gams, for instance, who had a brother bit by one of the Butler Sheriff's dogs, took responsibility for picketing Irvin Hall during the strike. They would staff those picket lines. \n\nCE: How long did the strike last? \n\nRD: I don't recall. \n\nRM: It wasn't just a strike. We organized an alternative university. We had classes in things that students wanted to know about but couldn't get in their ordinary curriculum.\n\n\" class=\"wp-image-775\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-201-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-201-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-201-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-201-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-201-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-201.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;6a05bf0c8f5d7&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c8f5d7\" 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\/IRV100-202-1024x576.png\" alt=\"INTERVIEW WITH FACULTY POLITICAL ACTIVISTS FROM THE 1970s\nMax Welborn Jr., David Fahey, and  and Jeffrey P.

Brown who was Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs] meant well, he was responding to students walking off the cement pathways on campus and getting on the grass. He made the comment in the Miami Student that Miami's likely turning into a cradle of roaches instead of coaches if student behavior of this sort continues. That prompted the attack of the roaches. That happened before Rowan Hall, I know that. Phil [McGarr] had been dismissed by this time, he'd received his walking papers. He and a fellow--he and a graduate student named John Mueller decided to do something to shake Professor Warren [Harris Warren, Chair of the History department] up a little bit. They fashioned these paper fish--most of them were small--and they wrote [spells out &quot;roaches&quot;] on them, roaches. They explained that each letter in that word meant something, it's a radical organization:\n\n&quot;Revitalize Our Antediluvian, Cheauvanistic, Hermaphroditic,  Egocentric Society.&quot; The next morning, there were roaches all over Irvin Hall. Warren was just--he knew what was going on. The highlight of the whole thing, though--I was teaching a class in the room opposite where the history department office used to be and I left the door open deliberately because--he finally discovered the largest roach of all, which was not a small one, but had gigantic antennae which were sticking out from beneath the relief map of Ohio. He discovered that and he said, &quot;these people are sick, sick, sick!&quot; The man's really upset by this. I kept roaches but they all disappeared, I had two or three and they just disintegrated with the passage of time.\n\" class=\"wp-image-776\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-202-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-202-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-202-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-202-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-202-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-202.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;6a05bf0c8f9dc&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c8f9dc\" 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\/IRV100-203-1024x576.png\" alt=\"TEACHING, GOVERNMENT DRAW GERMAN, RUSSIAN MAJORS\nBy Barb Zigli\n\nThis is one of a continuing series of interviews will, Miami\u2019s department chairmen. It is being written to help students find out about job opportunities related to their majors and to give information about the departments.\n\nThis week's interview is with Professor Erich Steiniger of the German and Russian department. His office is 69 Irvin and his telephone number is 6232.\n\nWhat courses do German and Russian Majors have to take?\n\nThey have to take 36 hours of language, which doesn\u2019t include 101-103. They take courses in grammar, reading, conversation, writing, literature, and, for the German majors, the history of the language. We like to have them take courses in all areas, of course.\n\nMany of the majors are in the field of education, cither in the School of Education \u00bb m the co-op program. The great majority of those who want to teach, about 80 percent, take their major in the School of Arts and Sciences.\n\nHow many German and Russian majors are there?\n\nRight now, I\u2019d say we have about 40 German majors. We\u2019ve had as many as 60 in he past few years. There are about 10-12 Russian majors.\n\nHow many majors graduate each year?\n\nIt has been about eight or ten in German and two or three in Russian.\n\nHow many of the German majors start the language here at the 101 level?\n\nAbout two-thirds.\n\nWhat kinds of occupations are open to German and Russian majors?\n\nOf the Germany majors, most go into teaching. A second field is government service. Many of our students have a double major with International Studies. Two or three have gone to the National Security Agency. Most of the Russian majors enter graduate school, government service or international business.\n\n\" class=\"wp-image-777\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-203-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-203-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-203-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-203-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-203-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-203.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;6a05bf0c8fdcf&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c8fdcf\" 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\/IRV100-204-1024x576.png\" alt=\"TEACHING, GOVERNMENT DRAW GERMAN, RUSSIAN MAJORS - Continued\n\nHow are job opportunities for German and Russian majors? Is it easy to find a job?\n\nRight now, I\u2019d say no. I think all of our majors last year have been placed, but they didn\u2019t all get their first choice. Two of them went to Germany to get jobs. Of the major languages, German, in this state, is taught least in the public schools. All did get jobs, but some of them had to teach something else*in addition to German.\n\nWhat kind of future do you see for German?\n\nI see a pretty good future, once the public school financing tax battle is settled. I think German is building up, as it has since the war. More and more schools arc introducing it. The increase has been about 6-8% per year, a steady trend upward\n\nDo you have any type of job opportunities program or placement service?\n\nNo, we haven\u2019t yet. We work with the School of Education placement service. We want to do more in this area. We keep our eyes and cars open, and occasionally we get a call from schools who lose a teacher in the middle of the year.\n\nDo you have any program in which majors can get job experience while they\u2019re studying?\n\nNo. A number of our students, usually the double majors, take jobs in Germany over the summer. We cooperate with the University of Cincinnati, which has a work-study program. After a short orientation program, the students are placed with a German employer.\n\nDo you have a graduate program in German and Russian?\n\nWe offer a Master\u2019s Degree in German, but we don\u2019t have too many graduate students right now \u2014 four or five altogether. Most are not resident students; they teach in the area. The department has no grad assistants. We have no graduate program in Russian.\n\nHow many German and Russian majors go on to graduate school?\n\nAbout 15% of the German majors do. Until recently, the majority of the Russian majors went to graduate school, but now the number is smaller because of the financial situation and the increased difficulty in getting into a grad school.\n\" class=\"wp-image-778\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-204-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-204-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-204-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-204-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-204-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-204.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;6a05bf0c901bb&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c901bb\" 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\/IRV100-205-1024x576.png\" alt=\"CLUB\u2019S \u201dOKTOBERFEST\u201d FIRST SCHEDULED EVENT\n\nThe newly-forming German Club will bring in the month of October with \u201cOktoberfest,&quot; featuring German food, music, and &quot;gem\u00fctlichkeit,\u201d on Sunday, Oct. 1, at Peffer Park.\n\nThe picnic, which will last limn 3 p.m. until dark, is open to all students interested in the German language and culture, whether or not they are presently enrolled in a German class.\n\nFoods such as sausage, sauerkraut, beer, and soft drinks will he served, and sports ranging from softball to frisbee-throwing will be played.\n\nThe 75 cent admission charge does not include beverages and can be paid to any German professor.

Williamson, dean of the College of Arts and Science.\n\n&quot;The reasons for merger in this case were, primarily, managerial efficiency and, secondarily, economy. Or the latter, there will not be any immediate savings, but beyond this first year, we anticipate savings currently related to a graduate assistantship,\u201d Williamson explained.\n\n\u201cThe faculty should be better served by having available to them secretarial assistance which is already available in the office of tire department of German and Russian,&quot; he said.\n\nThere was no opposition to the merger from either department. The programs will still be run separately, and the two sections of the new department arc physically separated, with German and Russian in Irvin Hall and the East Asian languages, in Hall Hall.\n\n\u201cThe match has not quite been consumated yet \u2013 they\u2019re still over in Hall Auditorium,\u201d remarked Prof. Erich Steiniger, former chairman of the German and Russian department.\n\n\u201cThe plan is to move the East Asian section to Irvin next year, which will solve the physical separation,\u201d said Prof. Marion Miller, acting chairman of the new department.\n\nProf. Chiang Tsu Chow, the assistant chairman, does not see any problems with the merger. \u201cI really don\u2019t see any difference it will make, just administrative convenience.\u201d he said.\n\nBesides the administrative aspect, Williamson outlined another advantage of the merger. &quot;I would suggest that the advocacy position of the GREAL department is enhanced by the addition of these faculty representatives from the East Arian languages,&quot; he said.\n\nSteiniger, however, disagreed on this point. \u201cThey claim a bigger department has more weight. That has never been true, and I hope it will never be,\u201d he stated.\n\" class=\"wp-image-780\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-206-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-206-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-206-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-206-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-206-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-206.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;6a05bf0c909a3&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c909a3\" 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\/IRV100-207-1024x576.png\" alt=\"DEPARTMENTS AND OFFICES IN IRVIN HALL AS OF 1972\n\nHistory\nFrench &amp; Italian\nGerman, Russian, and East Asian Languages\nSpanish &amp; Portuguese\nLanguage Laboratory\n\" class=\"wp-image-781\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-207-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-207-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-207-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-207-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-207-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-207.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;6a05bf0c90d98&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c90d98\" 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\/IRV100-208-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\u201cDREAM LIST\u201d COMES TRUE\n\nMiami\u2019s  million \u201cdream list\u2019\u2019 on capital improvements places priorities on the library and recreation needs of its three campuses.\n\nMiami\u2019s schedule for 1973 through 1979 was reviewed by Pres.

The wider time spread will &quot;give students more options by reducing conflicts at the popular hours.&quot; said Provost David Brown in a notice to department chairmen.\n\nRenovation of Irvin was originally scheduled to start in January. Brown then made the decision to reschedule classes and relocate faculty beginning winter quarter.\n\nLater, new procedures for approval of the renovation were announced by the new Chan chancellor and the Ohio Board of Regents. This meant renovation cannot begin until spring.\n\nRegistrar Ken Bogard recommended that the new scheduling procedure be used winter quarter in spite of the renovation delays. The spread schedule will be used at least through the 1974-75 school year.\n\nRenovation will mean the loss of 24 classrooms as well as faculty offices. The new spread schedule will allow for more efficient utilization of the available class rooms on campus, Assistant Registrar Tom Bilger said.\n\nStudent schedule books were delayed because of the schedule problems. The books will be available Nov 5. Change of schedule for winter quarter will begin Nov 15.\n\" class=\"wp-image-786\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-212-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-212-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-212-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-212-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-212-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-212.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;6a05bf0c921de&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c921de\" 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\/IRV100-213-1024x576.png\" alt=\"RENOVATION TO BEGIN IN WINTER\nBy Irv Weinberg\n\n\u201cReconstruction and additional renovation of Irvin and Upham Halls is expected to begin by the winter quarter.\u201d commented Lloyd Goggin, vice president for finance and business affairs at Miami.\n\nAdditional laboratory space is to be provided for students \u2014 graduate and undergraduate \u2014 and faculty. \u201cThe area in Upham Hall being renovated is ideal for laboratories and basically can I be used effectively for anything else,\u201d Goggin said.\n\n\u201cHaving gone under initial construction in the 1920's, many parts of Irvin Hall are over 50 years old,\u201d he remarked. In view of this Goggin felt &quot;major upgrading of utilities and minor renovation will be necessary.\u201d Installation and remodeling of the heating system, plumbing, along with electrical improvements, and air conditioning is expected Io take place.\n\n\u201cThe renovation of Upham Hall is anticipated to cost in the area of 0,000 whereas the utility reconstruction and minor renovation of Irvin is being planned in the range of 0,000.\u201d Goggin noted.\n\nHe expressed hope that the reconstruction of Upham Hall will begin during the winter quarter yet feels the remodeling of Irvin will be delayed until spring since \u201cmore renovation and reconstruction is involved.\u201d\n\nHopefully Irvin and Upham Halls will be completed within a year of initial construction.&quot; observed Goggin. He felt, however, that there is always the possibility of encountering unanticipated delays since in any building project of this nature there are bound to be problems \u201cappearing that people didn\u2019t expect.\u201d\n\nAt a recent Board of Regents meeting this past Friday, the board had stated \u201cits approval in accordance with the remodeling of these halls.\u201d Goggin added. The decision by the Board of Regents will be forwarded and recommended to a Controlling Board meeting which is to take place next Monday.\n\" class=\"wp-image-787\"

RELOCATE\nBy Chris Hutkowski\n\nAt the end of spring quarter this year, Irvin Hall will close its doors for a year of extensive renovation and remodeling. The four departments currently housed in Irvin will be temporarily placed in other buildings until the renovation is completed.\n\nHowever, with the current overcrowded conditions that numerous other departments are now facing, where will Irvin's three language departments and history department go?\n\nOld Manse, formerly known as the United Campus Ministry House and recently acquired by the University, will be used to alleviate some of the space problems. Located on High Street across from Ogden Hall, Old Manse will be used to house the history department during Irvin\u2019s renovation.\n\n\u201cThe key factor in the decision to use Old Manse was the need to house Irvin people.\u201d said John Dome, director ofinstructional resources. \u201cWe needed to find room and came up with the idea of using Old Manse to temporarily house the history department.\u201d\n\n\u201cThe original plan for Old Manse was that it would eventually be the permanent home of the religion department,\u201d Dome said. \u201cHowever, this now will be delayed until Irvin is completed.\u201d\n\n\u201dIf we could find another place to temporarily house History we would put the religion department there right now and avoid extra moves.\u201d Dome said \u201cBut as yet, we have not been able to come up with another place.\u201d\n\nDome said the three language departments will be split and housed in various buildings wherever room can be found. He emphasized that they are trying to keep the departments intact as much as possible.\n\nRenovation of Old Manse has already started and it will hopefully be ready for occupation by early summer, he said University maintenance is participating in the renovation as well as outside contractors.\n\" class=\"wp-image-796\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-222-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-222-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-222-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-222-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-222-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-222.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;6a05bf0c9491e&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c9491e\" 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\/IRV100-223-1024x576.png\" alt=\"IRVIN DEPARTMENTS TO RELOCATE - Continued\n\nAdditional space problems will result at the end of spring quarter, when McMaster Hall is scheduled to be torn down.

And all four will be glad to get back when the work is done.\n\nThe French and Italian department now is located in the back third floor offices of Wade McMillan Hospital; the history department is in Presser Hall; the German, Russian and East Asian languages department is in Upham Hall, and the Spanish and Portuguese department is in Gaskill Hall\n\nOne reason the dislocated professors are eager to return to Irvin is that now the classrooms they teach in are often not in the same building as their offices The result of this arrangement, they say. is that the amount of interchange between them and their students is greatly reduced, because their offices are not convenient for the students to visit after classes.\n\nOther problems have arisen for the history department that stem from its temporary location.\n\nProf. John Dickinson, history, says courses in his department have been losing enrollment because Presser Hall which is on Miami's Western campus, is an inconveniently far walk for most students. For example, he says, students can\u2019t walk from McGuffey to Presser in the 10-minute interval between classes.\n\nOther inconveniences of Presser, Dickinson says, are that the building is almost impossible to heat correctly because of its improperly closing casement windows, the professors' offices on the second floor are too small (the rooms originally were designed to be instrument practice rooms when Presser was a music building ), and Presser is a long way from the library.\n\nOther problems mentioned by some professors involved the hassles of moving personal and departmental materials to the temporary locations, and having to become clerically reorganized.\n\nDespite the problems that have arisen. however, the professors agree that Irvin Hall needed renovation and that\n\" class=\"wp-image-800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-226-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-226-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-226-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-226-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-226-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-226.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;6a05bf0c958a0&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c958a0\" 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\/IRV100-227-1024x576.png\" alt=\"IRVIN REMODELING POSES PROBLEMS -

He added that the cost was slightly greater than anticipated\n\n\u201cI don\u2019t really have close figures,\u201d he said. \u201dIt's a few thousand at most.\u201d\n\nRepairs made to the building include reinforcement and repair to leaks in the roof, modernization of the electrical, heating and lighting systems, improvement of acoustics by lowered ceilings and alleviation of dampness the the basement rooms.\n\nOtt also said additional painting, carpeting and tiling had been done in order to improve the building's appearance.\n\nBesides the general repairs which have been made in Irvin, a language lab, a History Instructional Resources Center, the Newman Room, a conference area for the Spanish and Portuguese department \u2014 and three seminar rooms were added.\n\nOtt said the building's roof was weak in some areas and had to be reinforced. He also pointed out that leakage problems in Irvin's dormer windows had been halted.\n\n\u201cThe roof is basically leak-proof now.\u201d he commented.\n\nHe also said the \u201cobsolete\u201d steam radiator system has been replaced by hot water convection heaters much like those used in dormitory rooms.\n\n&quot;The advantage of this system is that temperature can be regulated very finely,\u201d he said, explaining that now heating can be controlled from every room.\n\nThe 36 offices in Irvin, as well as the History Instructional Resources Center, are now equipped with window air conditioners.\n\nThe language lab is cooled centrally, unlike the rest of the building. Ott said a central air conditioning system for the entire building was beyond the funds which had been granted and was impractical since the building is scarcely used in the summer months, he continued.\n\" class=\"wp-image-805\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-231-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-231-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-231-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-231-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-231-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-231.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;6a05bf0c96bcd&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c96bcd\" 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\/IRV100-232-1024x576.png\" alt=\"IRVIN HALL RENOVATION BRINGS BETTER ACOUSTICS - Continued\n\nOtt also said that by lowering the ceiling and replacing it with acoustical tile, teaching conditions would be improved because of less reflected sound.\n\n\u201cBy lowering the ceiling and putting in better lighting you also get a better distribution of light.\u201d he said.\n\nA new &quot;movable partitioning paneling system&quot; in some of the offices was tried for the first time at Miami, according to Ott.

London, Orleans, Tiawan, Guatemala, Luxembourg, Greece, Italy and others.\n\n[\u2026] Toward that goal Brown asked Peter Pedroni. acting coordinator of International Programs, to work toward an infant &quot;educational program workshop&quot; each summer. He also urges the program Io take advantage of the move of the International Programs office to Irvin Hall.\n\n\u201cThe International Programs Office was moved this year from Harrison Hall to Irvin Hall,\u201d Pedroni said, &quot;so it would be closer to the students and faculty interested in international programs and also for the increased space available.\u201d\n\nIn an effort to increase program awareness, students now can browse through files of brochures of international programs offered by Miami and other schools.\n\nCounseling and advice also are offered, Pedroni said, and scholarships and financial help are available.\n\n&quot;It's a great opportunity for Miami students to study in Europe while not losing credits,&quot; Pedroni added.

of faculty and students over the assorted detours and noises of recent construction,\n\n&quot;We\u2019ve had so little new construction on the Oxford campus In recent years that we\u2019re spoiled, even while complaining that some facilities arc Inadequate,&quot; he said\n\n&quot;We can\u2019t grow without some growing pains - we can\u2019t build without inconvenience,&quot; the president added. \u201cThe different projects and destructions will make the University &quot;more attractive and more functional than ever,&quot; he said.\n\n[...]\n\nBesides the construction of new buildings, [Physical Plant Director Oneal] Archer is involved in the &quot;barrier removal&quot; program, designed to make the buildings and campus easier for the handicapped to reach, in compliance with the Occupational Safely and Health Act (OSHA).\n\n&quot;Phase One&quot; of the program, the cutting of wheelchair ramps into sidewalk curbs, has been completed.\n\n&quot;Phase Two\u201d improvements, he said, will continue through the year and will include the installation of handrails, emergency lights, wheelchair ramps, easy-open \u201cpanic bars\u201d on doors and toilet modifications, he explained.\n\nOther improvements are additional emergency generators and the construction of an elevator in Irvin Hall, costing ,000, Archer said.\n\nThe elevator was chosen for Irvin hall (rather than Warfield. Hiestand, Phillips, Alumni, Presser, and Radio-TV) because &quot;more students go in and out of Irvin than any other building on campus,&quot; he said.\n\nThe elevator was not installed during Irvin\u2019s renovation, he explained, because state funds were not available at the time.\n\nArcher said the University received a combined grant of state and federal funds after two surveys were made justifying handicap allocations.\n\n[...]\n\" class=\"wp-image-814\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-240-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-240-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-240-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-240-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-240-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-240.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;6a05bf0c98f27&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c98f27\" 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\/IRV100-241-1024x576.png\" alt=\"AS ICE MELTS WITH THE unusually warm weather, students slosh from the dormitories and apartments to class.\n\nSteve Bonstedt photo\n\" class=\"wp-image-815\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-241-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-241-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-241-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-241-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-241-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-241.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;6a05bf0c992b0&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c992b0\" 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\/IRV100-242-1024x576.png\" alt=\"BOARD OF TRUSTEES MINUTES\nJune 17, 1977\n\nRESOLUTION R77-89\n\nWHEREAS, bids were received for the Removal of Safety Deficiencies and Barriers to the Handicapped and to meet OSHA Requirements - Phase II by the Ohio Department of Administrative Services, Division of Public Works, in Columbus, Ohio, on May 4, 1977;

Miami offers a total of eleven foreign languages including Latin. European languages taught at Miami include German, French, Russian, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and Greek. The Mideast and Eastern Languages which are represented are Hebrew, Chinese, and Japanese. Each of these languages involve a four hour first year course focusing mainly on grammar and syntax, and a second year three hour course which centers around literature with a six week period at the beginning of the year to review grammar.\n\nAnother reason for taking a language course would be for the travel opportunities it allows Sprint courses lasting for one summer term are offered for most of the languages. These courses involve coming to Miami for at least two hours a day for anywhere from five to eight weeks depending on the summer term. By completing a summer school course, the student is prepared for either a 121 level or a 201 level language course in the fall. Most of the languages give the student an opportunity for travel in Europe during the summer. A number of these courses ore connected with the Luxembourg Center. An example would be the learning possibilities in Luxembourg itself for the student who wished to take German. For most of his six weeks in Europe, the student divides his time between class work and going out into the community to practice his language skills. In most cases, the student is placed in the home of a European family which enhances his ability to understand the foreign language even more. The final two weeks for the student taking German are spent taking a trip to East and West Berlin. Although the study is intense, students who study a foreign language during the summer in Europe are quite capable of handling.a 121 or a 200 level language course.\n\nA third reason for taking a foreign language would be contact with others who speak the language. All the languages have some type of honorary or club that a person Spanish and German offer their students the opportunity to live within a language corridor located on\" class=\"wp-image-818\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-244-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-244-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-244-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-244-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-244-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-244.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;6a05bf0c99d95&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c99d95\" 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\/IRV100-245-1024x576.png\" alt=\"RECENSIO - Continued\n\nthe various dorms on campus Stoddard House is the French answer to this philosophy of study. There, the foreign language is spoken by everyone \u2014 continuously.\n\nA final reason for taking a foreign language would be the literary doors that a knowledge of the language opens. All of the courses have 300 and 400 level courses which center around the people who speak the language and their culture. These courses are more oriented towards comprehension of main ideas than comprehension of grammar and syntax. Reading works in their original language often enhances the meaning of the work because it is often impossible for ideas to be translated into English. \n\nDespite the benefits offered to students who take the foreign language courses, many still find the language requirement to be a source of discontent. The revision of the language requirement regulation, which has been talked about ad infinitem, has yet to become a reality.\n\nShuan Cole\n\" class=\"wp-image-819\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-245-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-245-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-245-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-245-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-245-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-245.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;6a05bf0c9a14d&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c9a14d\" 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\/IRV100-246-1024x576.png\" alt=\"BOARD OF TRUSTEES MINUTES\nJune 3, 1978\n\nRecommendations received from the Committee on Naming of Buildings were presented to the Board by President Shriver.

Systems Analysis and Business Analysis students had to master the variety of computer languages \u2014 Cobol, Fortran, and Watfiv \u2014 in order to program the computer. Although the use of computers differed slightly from the generally accepted guidelines for labs, the basic element of control still was maintained. This was accomplished by the use of the appropriate language to program the computer. Since the computer would not do anything by itself, the student controlled the computer by the process of programming it.\n\nA recent addition to the disciplines which employed labs was foreign languages. The foreign language lab, housed in Irvin Hall, provided students the opportunity to increase their oral comprehension in the respective language. By listening to cassettes and answering questions in a workbook, students received needed practice in order to understand the pattern of the language.\n\nLaboratories, in general, complimented the academic process in a variety of disciplines. The ability to transfer classroom methods into lab work allowed students to understand the intracacies of the subject in a more thorough manner.

Withrow and Billings have been the target of many complaints about poor lighting in the past, he said.\n\nFinal approval of bids for the work rests with the Board of Trustees, Keebler said. The board next meets Feb. 16, two days after the due date for bids on the Bishop and Irvin repairs.\n\n[\u2026]\" class=\"wp-image-823\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-249-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-249-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-249-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-249-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-249-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-249.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;6a05bf0c9afd9&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c9afd9\" 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\/IRV100-250-1024x576.png\" alt=\"BOARD OF TRUSTEES MINUTES\nApril 7, 1979\n\nMiss Lord moved, Mr. Jurgensen seconded, and Resolution R79-44 was adopted.\n\nRESOLUTION R79-44\n\nWHEREAS, bids were received for the Irvin Hall Roof Replacement by the Ohio Department of Administrative Services, Division of Public Works, in Columbus, Ohio, on March 1, 1979; and\n\nWHEREAS, the Deputy Director of the Ohio Department of Administrative Services, Division of Public Works, has recommended the award of a contract to the lowest and best bidder;\n\nNOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: that the Board of Trustees approves the award of a contract in the amount indicated to the following contractor for the Irvin Hall Roof Replacement:\n\nGeneral Masonry Contractors, Inc. \n930 Kingsmill Parkway\nColumbus, Ohio 4322\nITEM NO. 3 - General Contract\t5,775.98\nAlt.

PANHEL SPONSORS PROGRESSIVE MUNCHIES, CHRISTMAS CAROLING\nBy Nancy McDonald\n\nThe Jr. Panhellenic council consists of forty girls which is made up by the panhel delegate and the president of each pledge class. The purpose of Jr. Panhell is to promote friendship between the sorority pledge classes and to inform everyone of what is happening in the Greek system. Jr. Panhell has been planning activities that appeal to everyone.\n\nThe first event of the year was a \u201cprogressive munchie\u201d. The pledges of all the sororities went from suite to suite sampling various snacks provided by that sorority\u2019s pledge class. Vicki Hunter, pledge of Alpha Phi, said, \u201cThe progressive munchie\n\nwas a great way to meet pledges from other sororities and get to visit different suites in an informal situation\u2019.. The pledge classes of all the sororities combined their beautiful voices and went Christmas caroling to President and Mrs. Shriver\u2019s house and then to various fraternity houses on campus. Also, to get everyone in the Christmas spirit Jr. and Sr. Panhell combined efforts to decorate a Christmas tree with lights and ornaments in front of Irvin Hall.\n\nPlans are already in the making for a few of the second semester projects. Around Valentine\u2019s Day the pledge classes will be selling heart shaped cookies. Support Jr. Panhell by purchasing some of the delicious cookies. The Greek dessert will be February 21, 1980.\n\" class=\"wp-image-825\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-251-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-251-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-251-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-251-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-251-624x351.png 624w, https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/meyersde\/files\/2025\/06\/IRV100-251.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;6a05bf0c9b724&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a05bf0c9b724\" 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\/IRV100-252-1024x576.png\" alt=\"RECENSIO\n\nIsolated within a sea of study carrels, Jeff Miller develops reading and listening comprehension and speech skills in Irvin Hall's language lab.
