On Wednesday, the senate released two proposed resolu- tions to be considered at the special meeting on Thursday. One resolution called for a declaration of no confidence in the Institutions of Higher Learning and the appoint- ment of Glenn Boyce, and the other called for a coalition of the post-secondary insti- tutions governed by the IHL to initiate a constitutional amendment to abolish the IHL. The language in the reso- lution passed by the senate on Thursday night is demon- strably different from the proposed resolutions that BILLY SCHUERMAN / THE DAILY MISSISSIPPIAN were released on Wednesday.

GRIFFIN NEAL [email protected] On Glenn Boyce’s first school day as chancellor, he’ll be met with a crowd of students, faculty and Oxford residents outside of his office — and they won’t be there to welcome him to campus. The group, organized by the Abolish IHL coalition, plans to march to the Lyceum at 12:30 p.m. on Monday in protest of the Institution of Higher Learn- ing’s selection process. They will demand Boyce resign on his first day as chancellor. Along with demanding Boyce’s immediate resignation, the group demands the imme- diate resignation of all 12 IHL Board of Trustees members and that the chancellor search process be reopened and selected by a democratically elected committee of univer- sity stakeholders. The coalition was formed following the Oct. 3 news of Glenn Boyce as the univer- sity’s 18th chancellor.

  • Chapter 3 Federalism: Mississippi, Alabama, and The
    CHAPTER 3 FEDERALISM: MISSISSIPPI, ALABAMA, AND THE U.S.A. By the summer of 1962, Clark Schooler had gone ABD at Johns Hopkins University. ABD stood for All But Dissertation. It meant that Clark had completed the course work for his Ph.D. degree in political science, but he had not yet written the approximately 500 page manuscript, called a dissertation, which was the final requirement for the degree. Being ABD at Johns Hopkins put some free time into Clark’s work schedule. He had plenty to do to write his dissertation. There were long hours doing research in the university library and even longer hours pecking away at the keys of his Underwood portable typewriter. But he could do the work whenever it was convenient for him. If he needed to leave Baltimore for a few days or a few weeks, he could do so without seriously interrupting his dissertation writing schedule. Which was fortunate, because the Patriot Press newspaper chain, owner of the Baltimore Banner, had plans for Clark Schooler. In the early 1960s, the Patriot Press had developed a news gathering and marketing technique called the Patriot Press News Squadron. Promising reporters from through- out the Patriot Press newspaper empire were sent as a two or three person team to cover important and fast breaking national news stories. These stories were published in all the newspapers owned by the Patriot Press throughout the United States. And right under each reporter’s name, or byline, ran the words: “Member, Patriot Press News Squadron.” The city editor at the Baltimore Banner, Terry Songman, looked at Clark Schooler and spoke with animation.
