got underway in 1909, with Dr. Daniel Jenkins as its first president. The campus was at 24th and Pratt. May 6, 1930, by some 1,000-plus votes, the Municipal University ot Omaha came into being when the voters of Omaha favored such a plan. In 1936, the present campus was selected for future development, and in the year 1938 the present Administration Building was erected on the West Dodge site. Dr. Rowland Haynes was prexy of OU during the period 1935-48, and was succeeded by the present president, Dr. Milo Bail. The stadium and fieldhouse were added in 1949, the Gene Eppley Library in 1956, and the Music Building in that same year. Currently under construction are two' buildings, the Applied Arts-Classroom Building, and the Student Union Building. Fully accredited, nationally recognized - thatfs our University of Omaha!

It was in 1948 that President Milo Bail came to Omaha to head the University of Omaha, bringing with him many years of experience as a high school teacher and coach, a university professor, and as Dean ofthe College of Education at Butler University in Indianapolis. And under Dr. Bail's dynamic leadership, the University has seen a rapid expansion of students and facilities. The fieldhouse and stadium, the Gene Eppley Library, the Student Union, the Applied Arts and Sciences building - plus a student enrollment of more than 5,500 - are all evidence of the challenge Dr. Bail accepted when he came to Omaha more than eleven years ago. The students, the faculty, and Omaha itself all owe Dr. Bail a debt of gratitude for his untiring efforts to make our University a great university. t f' .1. f . - , , 1 ,yi ,-,Y , 1 ,Lg-t 4 i A ' I, A , If Nix' f ff,-' ' f ' LJ .fl.tl,'l' J'.. - - ' - ' ' ,- .fl r. - , , Of. t O-zsiiiie-?.!f-1?ieQ5?r.-fit.29:59 ,.-.Y L,-4,,V,., . .- .1-4J.:,-. .- .-,. .1 A,
