The article states that Indiana IndusPial Universit\' agreed to purchase the Upland campus. Indeed, representatives of Taylor and IIU signed a contract to that effect. However, by the time the latter school began holding classes on campus concurrently with Taylor, the newly incorporated institution was known as Indiana Northern Universit}', and later still, as Indiana Northern Graduate School ofProfessional Management Our thanks to Dr William Thompson '57 ofPomona, Calif, who brought it to our attention.
