Boston Symphony Orchestra Concert Programs, Season 91, 1971-1972 BOSTON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA FOUNDED IN 1881 BY HENRY LEE HIGGINSON FRIDAY -SATURDAY 10 NINETY-FIRST SEASON 1971-1972 ADIVARI created for all time a perfect marriage of precision and beauty for both the eye and the ear. He had the unique genius to combine a thorough knowledge of the acoustical values of wood with a fine artist's sense of the good and the beautiful. Unexcelled by anything before or after, his violins have such purity of tone, they are said to speak with the voice of a lovely soul within. In business, as in the arts, experience and ability are invaluable.

    THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY OFFICIAL PROCEEDINGS OF THE ONE THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED AND TENTH MEETING OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES Columbus, Ohio, March 3, 1995 The Board of Trustees met at its regular monthly meeting on Friday, March 3, 1995, at The Ohio State University Fawcett Center for Tomorrow, Columbus, Ohio, pursuant to adjournment. ** ** ** Minutes of the last meeting were approved. ** ** ** 601 March 3, 1995 meeting, Board of Trustees The Chairman, Mr. Kessler, called the meeting of the Board of Trustees to order on March 3, 1995, at 10:15 a.m. He requested the Secretary to call the roll. Present: John W. Kessler, Chairman, Milton A. Wolf, Alex Shumate, Theodore S. Celeste, Michael F. Colley, George A. Skestos, David L. Brennan, James F. Patterson, Amira N. Ailabouni, and Thomas C. Smith. --0-- PRESIDENT'S REPORT President Gee: As many of you are aware, 1995 is a special year as we mark the 125th anniversary of this university. One hundred and twenty-five years ago this week, the legislation creating the university was being hotly debated in the Ohio House. After much discussion, it passed the House on March 10. The proposal was passed by the Senate on the 17th of March, and the law establishing the Ohio Agricultural and Mechanical College was signed on March 22, 1870. The law called for trustees to be named, one from each congressional district. Former president Rutherford B. Hayes was governor at the time, and he appointed 19 trustees. The university history reports that, "most of them had filled public office and, although a considerable number of them were lawyers by profession, almost without exception, they were directly interested in practical agriculture." The trustees did not meet until May, and the first charge to the trustees was to find a place for the university to be located and set a curriculum.
