Extent:
16 linear feet
Date range:
1967-1968
Abstract:
F. Don James was the acting President from 1967 to 1968. During his brief tenure in office he faced more than a few challenges- some inherited from President Horn and some that developed from 1967 to 1968. A few of these issues included embezzlement of University funds, the continued pressure from students for a bar on campus, and the arrest of two faculty members during a demonstration. In early 1968, Mr. James realized that he would not be chosen to lead the University on a permanent basis and subsequently assumed the Presidency of Central Connecticut State College in July 1968.
