  • Report of the Task Force on Building Names and Institutional History
    Report of the Task Force on Building Names and Institutional History university-history.dl.umn.edu February 25, 2019 This version includes proofreading corrections, copyediting clarifications, stylistic and formatting adjustments. Executive Summary of the Report Our report begins with a recap of the establishment of the Task Force on Building Names and Institutional History, the charge and work of the Task Force, and the foundation of that work in core University values and the principles for naming and renaming significant University assets recommended by last year’s President’s and Provost’s Advisory Committee on University History (the “Coleman Committee”). We review public input to the Task Force and then present the four cases we were charged with considering. In examining these cases, we provide a review of the individual’s career, including accomplishments as well as actions that have drawn sharp criticism. As called for by the Coleman Committee, after reviewing their careers we provide a set of arguments for and against removing the name from each building. We conclude each case analysis by applying the principles of change, diversity, preservation, exceptionality, and deliberation, as recommended by the Coleman Committee, to determine whether removing a name from a building is warranted. Our report concludes with a discussion of initiatives beyond naming that might be taken up by the permanent Advisory Committee to the President on University History that will begin its work this semester. President Eric Kaler and Executive Vice President and Provost Karen Hanson charged Task Force members on October 4, 2018, calling on the Task Force to “recommend actions regarding the specific buildings mentioned in ‘A Campus Divided’ (Coffman Memorial Union, Coffey Hall, Middlebrook Hall, and Nicholson Hall) and the Minnesota Student Association proposal to rename Coffman Memorial Union” and to utilize tools to gather community feedback on the buildings in question.

  • Why Universities Failed to Build Endowments
    Fundraising and Endowment Building at a Land Grant University During the Critical Period, 1910-1940: The Failure of Ohio State Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Benjamin A. Johnson Graduate Program in Education: Policy and Leadership The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Professor Bruce Kimball, Advisor Professor Bryan Warnick Professor Ann Allen Professor Robert Lawson Graduate Faculty Representative: Professor James Lang ii Copyrighted by Benjamin A. Johnson 2013 Abstract The purpose of this research is to provide an understanding of the financial strategy and shortcomings of The Ohio State University (OSU) in the early 1900s. It focuses on key moments in educational philanthropy, particularly endowment building, at OSU, with comparisons to the University of Michigan (U-M), and occasionally Harvard University. Located in the center of the midwestern state of Ohio, OSU might be considered a quintessential public university, facing challenges comparable to other colleges and universities. This dissertation draws on extensive original source material from OSU’s archives to show the dynamic interplay of university leaders in making key financial decisions. A variety of other primary and secondary sources from both OSU and U-M are also used. The chronological narrative presents the slow and halting journey of OSU toward private fundraising, endowment building, and the creation of the OSU Development Fund. To provide background, discussions on the land grant movement and the founding of OSU are included, as well as a description of the Ohio economy in the early 1900s.
