EDT Governor Holshouser, Liddy Dole, Dave Flaherty, distinguished officials and guests: It is great to get together with one of my family again, our third son, Steve Ford. I also wish to express my deep appreciation for the fact that an old and very dear friend of mine, Congressman Jim Broyhill, is here. For many, many reasons, it is a great privilege and a very high honor to be back here in the Tarheel State, and I thank you for the wonderfully warm and hospitable welcome. In Kansas City, I promised not to concede a single vote or a single State. I meant it, and let me give you where I have been to prove the point. Some people have said, well, I have been spending my time in the Rose Garden. Some people have been saying I have been hiding out. Hell, here is the itinerary. Today I was in Virginia, now in North Carolina, and later in South Carolina; last week in Oklahoma, Texas; the week before in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida. I don't think that is hiding out in Washington, D. c. (Laughter) A couple of weeks ago I opened up the State Fair in Texas, but Jim Holshouser told me if I wanted to see a really big fair, I would have to come to North Carolina.

But before that vote took place, William Griffith, vice president for student affairs, told the legislature he had already de­ cided to house freshman athletes on West Campus with other freshmen by the fall of 1987. President Keith Brodie, athletic di­ rector Tom Butters and basketball coach Mike Kryzewzski had previously voiced their preference for such a move. "I feel that we will accommodate fresh­ man student athletes on West next year, and that other freshmen will be involved," he said.

In Grateful Memory R H B (-) R A D (-) M H R (-) J R S (-) W G S (-) So many friends and colleagues—from the faculty, from the sta, from the ranks of the alumni—have helped me during the writing of this History that I dare not even begin to list them all. I hope that they will forgive me if I do not mention them, one by one, but instead single out a few people whose contributions have been necessary and continuing. First, I want to acknowledge the authors of the een “In Retrospect” essays, all of them students during the Scales presidency. I hope that readers of this History will appreciate, as much as I do, their memories and observations as providing a perspective on campus life that I would not have been qualied to give. Members of the sta of the Z. Smith Reynolds Library have been unfailingly ready to assist me, but I must name, as having been particu- larly helpful, Julia Bradford from the University archives. I don’t know how many times she has opened the locked door of the sixth oor stacks so that I could explore papers and documents that I needed to consult.
