LETTER
Office of Public Information
Vol. 1 No. 7
PRESIDENT PEARSON brought back from Korea not only the first honorary degree ever conferred by Khung Hee University on an American—and in that country such honors, rare to foreigners, must be approved by the government—but gifts to the UM from KHU. Art treasures of the Far East are on their way by ship for the Joe and Emily Lowe Art Gallery ...part of a collection of rare oriental coins has already arrived...but the piece de resistance to delight the heart of a zoologist is a collection of some 10,000 specimens of the flora and fauna of Korea. As he did on his return from Russia last year, Dr. Pearson plans to report on his observations of Korea, 'Hong Kong and Tokyo during an informal hour in Beaumont in the near future.
Dr. Pearson1s responsibilities as president of the Association of Urban Universities will prevent his presence on campus for the opening of Homecoming Week. He will be in Cincinnati Nov. 6-7 for the annual meeting, expects to be back at his desk Nov. 9.
PRELIMINARY LIBRARY BUILDING PLANS are on display in the faculty lounge, 240 Ashe. Since architects will proceed soon with working drawings, Dr. McNeal will appreciate comments or criticism as sooq as possible. Construction is expected to start around Mar. 1, to be completed a year later.
THE LIBRARY'S RUSSIAN COLLECTION is being surveyed by former Curator of the Library of Congress’ Slavic Room, John Dorosh, engaged as consultant for three months. Faculty members conversant with Russian are invited to check.materials in their fields with him (ext. 2194) to determine priority for subject cataloging.
