  • KSU-SPSU TIMELINE, 1947-2016 06/11/1947 the Board of Regents
    KSU-SPSU TIMELINE, 1947-2016 06/11/1947 The Board of Regents authorizes Georgia Tech to establish a vocational technical institute at the Atlanta Naval Air Station (NAS) in Chamblee “provided that a satisfactory lease may be made with the Navy.” About a year and a half earlier, in January 1946, Georgia Tech had leased 23 NAS buildings and converted them into Tech dormitories and classrooms, but the 1946 lease did not cover the creation of a new technical institute. 09/10/1947 The Board of Regents allocates $60,000 to Georgia Tech for Fiscal Year 1948 to establish a technical institute in Chamblee once a lease with the Navy was completed. 10/08/1947 With the approval of the Navy, the Board of Regents authorizes Georgia Tech to continue to lease nine of the 23 NAS buildings to establish The Technical Institute. 10/15/1947 On the recommendation of Georgia Tech President Blake R. Van Leer, and the approval of the Board of Regents, Professor Lawrence V. Johnson’s assumes office as The Technical Institute’s first director. 01/01/1948 John D. Sewell’s appointment as assistant to the director becomes effective. Sewell’s duties included public relations. 03/24/1948 The Technical Institute holds its first registration. The students who successfully enrolled included 115 men and one woman, Barbara Hudson. The initial five programs of study were Building Construction Technology; Electrical Technology; Electronics and Radio Technology; Mechanical Technology; and Heating, Ventilation, and Air-Conditioning Technology. 05/12/1949 The Board of Regents approves a name change from The Technical Institute to Southern Technical Institute.
