Birth of Seaver College “What is being dedicated today was made possible in large measure by the genius, the work, the thrift and the unselfishness of a man who used to call himself ‘just an old duffer.’ Some duffer,” Governor Ronald Reagan spoke of the late Frank Seaver during the dedication ceremony of the Frank R. Seaver College. On April 20. the Malibu campus was dedicated in honor of the generosity of Frank and Blanche Seaver. “From this day forward it shall be known to men everywhere as the Frank R. Seaver College,” Dr. William S. Banowsky, university president, pronounced. Seaver College, which will have a ceiling enrollment of 1800, will have a deep and indelible impact on the minds of the students, Banowsky said. “The Seaver gifts were given with no strings attached. Once Frank and Blanche determined that a project merited their support they also determined that it was of sufficient integrity to seek its own course,” Reagan continued. “If Frank were here, he’d he embarrassed. He was modest, unassuming, a gentleman who shunned the spotlight. Ilis interest was not in collecting accolades but in making it possible for others to grow and expand and thus extend the cycle of benefits of this American dream,” Reagan said. Seaver College—the cornerstone and central core of academic enterprise—is one of the numerous academic components which will come under the banner of Pepperdine University, Banowsky said. The dedication marked the end of Pepperdine University’s 39th year in existence. The 1976 Bicentennial year will mark the beginning of Malibu’s Seaver College.
