Marshall on display Coming into View is an excellent theme for the Chief Justice this year — and for Marshall University. Indeed, some of the seeds planted earlier have sprung from the earth and arc starting to blossom — coming into view. One of the thrusts which is bringing Marshall into view' throughout the state s our effort to assist Wes: Virginia's economy through the Center for Regional Progress. The work the center has and is doing with businesses, legislators and state agencies is beginning to have a significant impact. This has net gone unnoticed by the West Virginia Board of Regents, and. as a result, the Board has transferred responsibility for operation of its statewide Center for Education and Rescorch with Industry (CERI) to Marshall University. We arc bc-.ng noticed by governmental leaders also, and more than a dozen key figures in the legislative and executive branches accepted invitations to come to Marshall University to have discussions with the MU President’s Cabinet and with community leaders. These sessions have been extremely successful in that the visitors have learned a great deal about Marshall while we arc learning about them and their responsibilities. Successful — winning athletic programs are gaining attention, also. More people are coming greater distances to attend athletic contests, and more are reading about our achievements throughout the region. This is significant in itself, but more importantly it helps us in our efforts to capture the attention of the people of our state and to tell them what Marshall University is really about — a fine, broad academic program led by truly outstanding faculty members. All of the other things which are happening at Marshall University are secondary to the academic program, alt.nough they arc vitally important in achieving the recognition and support wc urgently need to expand and further strengthen our efforts in the classrooms. I’m very proud of our faculty and of the things that are happening in relation to the academic program. SCORES — the Search Committee on Recruiting Excellent Students — is continuing to do an excellent job in attracting academically outstanding individuals to Marshall. The annual Academic Festival, which brings top high school students to our campus for academic competition, has exceeded all expectations and more than 3.000 participated in the 1985 event. Faculty, too. are receiving a great deal of attention in our quest for academic excellence. Marshall has been relatively successful in efforts to increase faculty salaries — and morale. In addition, wc arc working to raise more private funds to assist faculty members in their development in teaching. research and public service. A large, private contribution has enabled us to start a program to recognize — and reward — a faculty member each year for outstanding teaching. These arc but a few of the things that arc happening as Marshall University emerges. Increasingly. Marshall is going to be noticed, supported and appreciated as a result of the work all of us — faculty, students, staff and administrators — are doing to help our university come into view. Sincerely. Dale F Nitzschke President HONORED WELCOME As part of his program to welcome neuvomers to campus. President Dale F. Nitzschke greets treshmen at a reception at his home. ,9nlryJuclion 7
