Speakers Welcome White Guest speaker for inauguration day was Dr. Fred Harvey Harrington, president of the Uni- versity of Wisconsin and specialist in American diplomatic history and the Civil War period. In the whole history of higher education, Dr. Harrington said, there has never been a bet- ter time for an able academic leader to become a university president. For ours is an age of educa- tion. . . We in America have come to see that our prosperity, our democratic institutions, our cul- ture, all depend on education. Other speakers welcoming President White into office were Terry Moran, Student Council president representing Kent students, and faculty representative Prof. Chester E. Satterfield. Speak- ing for the alumni was Edward Zink, president of the Alumni Association. Chief Justice Kingsley Taft brought greetings from the state. Rev. Her- bert Van Meter, of the First Congregational Church, San Mateo, Calif., presented the invoca- tion and benediction. This is the right day to begin as university president if one is vigorous, believes in expansion, academic freedom . . ., notes Harrington. Such a president is Bob White. Terry Moran pledges support of students.

Applause, Praise Laud Educator Robert I. White was selected for his office after a nine- month, nationwide study by a faculty-trustee committee. Commending his selection, Robert C. Dix, committee chair- man, said, The committee ' s favorable opinion of Dr. White was confirmed repeatedly by testimony from other campuses. ... You couldn ' t find a better qualified man in the United States, said retiring President George A. Bowman of his successor. Dr. White ' s experiences as an educator and administra- tor range from teaching in elementary and secondary schools to presidency of a junior college and professorship at the University of Chicago. A Phi Beta Kappa, he came to KSU in 1946 as dean of the College of Education. In 1958, he became the first holder of the university post of vice pres- ident of academic affairs. White acknowledges a standing ovation as he accepts new duties. 13
