Tax-cuts and enrollment
In a rare departure from traditional University policy to remain impartial in political affairs, University of Miami President Henry King Stanford expressed his concerns about the "deleterious effects” the proposed property -tax cut referendum would have on the quality of life in Dade County if it is passed.
The comments were made at the first general faculty meeting of the 1979-80 academic year held in Gusman Concert Hall on Sunday, August 26.
Dr. Stanford urged the 300 faculty members and administrators in attendance who share his views to vote against the proposal during the special election which will be held on Sept. 18.
"If passed,” he said, "this referendum would seriously reduce or eliminate services to which we in Dade County have been accustomed—protection of people and property, recreation and culture, arts and sciences—and affect our physical and socio-economic environment.”

Thank you from President Stanford
To all members of the University' family who cooperated so selflessly and prodigiously in battening down the hatches for David’s anticipated arrival, I express my enthusiastic gratitude. There seems to be something about crisis and its implication for suffering on the part of our fellow' human beings that brings out our altruistic best. I am proud of the way the University family responded.
That E>avid turned out to be less than fierce in the Miami area should not make anyone feel that he labored in vain. For one thing, we learned a great deal in the process of getting ready.
Thank you again for the impressive way you prepared for a date that didn’t materialize. Let us hope we will be stood up even* time.
Henry' King Stanford
