    TEXAS FIGHT The History of Naval ROTC at The University of Texas at Austin Volume II 1960 - 1980 Edwin W. Mergele, III, CDR USN (Ret) TEXAS FIGHT The History of Naval ROTC at The University of Texas at Austin Volume II 1960 - 1980 Edwin W. Mergele, III, CDR USN (Ret) Copyright © 2014. All rights reserved. DEDICATION This work is dedicated to my father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Edwin W. Mergele, Jr., who both majored in history at The University of Texas and inspired in me an appreciation for that subject. Dad served in the Coast Guard (under the Department of the Navy) during WWII, in the Atlantic and Pacific theaters, and was recalled by the Navy for the Korean War. He instilled in me an appreciation for the sea services and, in general, service to my country. I especially recognize the WWII NROTC alumni at Texas, many of whom it’s been my privilege to become personally acquainted with, and many of whom helped me document the early years of the unit. Lastly, to all the other men and women who have stood the watch to preserve our liberty and freedom, I also dedicate this work. Foreword TEXAS FIGHT, The History of Naval ROTC at The University of Texas at Austin is an engrossing account of the Unit’s history, and we are indebted to Ed Mergele for the research, dedication and determination leading to publication. So to Ed we say Bravo Zulu, the signal flags for “WELL DONE.” He is to be especially commended for resurrecting the history of the classes 1947-50, a time of transition from wartime to peacetime.

  • “Zero to Sixty in Ten Years” Begun to View Itself As a Com- Driven by a Changing Sense of Responsibility, Acceler- Munity Resource
    Spring 2001 In 1991, the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry was only marginally involved in com- munity outreach. Richard Jones’ occasional alarming demonstrations of chemical wizardry notwithstand- ing, the department was focused inward, on UT stu- dents. But over the next decade, new grant requirements, new personnel, and a new sense of the University’s responsibilities combined to push the department into a new role. It’s safe to say now that nearly every faculty member and many staffers and 2 FROM THE CHAIRMAN just returned from the Spring graduation ceremony for the College of INatural Sciences. Of the 440 students in attendance from seven depart- ments, about 90 students “walked” to publicly receive their Bachelor’s degrees in chemistry or biochemistry; and I had the pleasure of shaking hands and giv- ing out diplomas to these graduating seniors. We had quite a presence! (Many of these students were previously in one of my classes, and I was gratified to see them smiling, since they rarely wore this expression during my lectures. Until that moment, I had worried that these particular facial muscles had atro- phied during their tenure as students.) During the organizational activities in the bowels of the Erwin Center before the march into the arena, I was walking through the “ranks” of students reminding them where the restrooms were located since there was no escape Jim Holcombe once they were seated in the ceremonial grounds. Talking with the students I spotted Olivia Ornelas (’01), who had been a work study student in our office during her first three years at UT.

    Copyright by Charlotte A. Sullivan 2002 This Dissertation Committee for Charlotte Ann Sullivan Certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Presidential Leadership: A Documentation of the Defining Issues Confronted by Presidents of The University of Texas at Austin from 1967 to 1997 Committee: James P. Duncan, Supervisor William F. Lasher Norvell W. Northcutt Michael P. Thomas, Jr. Patricia Witherspoon Presidential Leadership: A Documentation of the Defining Issues Confronted by Presidents of The University of Texas at Austin from 1967 to 1997 by Charlotte Ann Sullivan, B. S., M.A.Comm., M.Div.B.L. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin August 2002 Dedication To my Dad, Robert S. Sullivan (1932 – 2001), who taught me the value of hard work and determination, tempered by a great sense of humor and a genuine concern for others. Acknowledgements Initially, my interest in the issues encountered by university presidents developed after witnessing three troubled presidencies while obtaining my second Master’s degree and teaching as an adjunct instructor. In one case, the president was unceremoniously fired. In a second case, the faculty took a vote of “no confidence” in the institution’s president and provost, while the third institution’s faculty voted no confidence in the “administration.” As a graduate student and junior faculty member, I became acutely aware that institutions of higher education can not effectively carry out their primary mission of transforming the lives of students through education if the position of chief executive officer is in peril.
