Description:Excerpt from History of the Ohio State University VII, Vol. 2: The Bevis Administration 1940-1956; The Post-War Years and the Emergence of the Greater University The last eleven years of the Bevis administration were highly significant in the life of The Ohio State University. In that period, 1945-1956, it passed the crest of the post-war years, adjusted to the threat of the war in Korea, underwent tremendous physical plant expansion, strengthened its faculty and curricula, and entered upon a second phase of unprecedented enrollment. It also went through a series of crises involving the issue of academic freedom. In time these were resolved after a fashion, but some of the scars remained. The period was marked also by extensive institutional planning, not only from year-to-year and biennium-to-biennium, but even to a quarter century ahead. Inevitably some of these plans had to be changed, others abandoned, and new ones adopted. The campus of 1956, when Dr. Bevis retired, was vastly different from the one he inherited in 1940. Much of the change was due directly to him, and most of the remainder was under his supervision. His tenure as president was the longest of any in the University's first century save that of Dr. William Oxley Thompson. Inevitably Dr. Bevis left his mark on the University and it was mostly good. Part 1, of Volume VIII, The Bevis Administration, 1940-1945, dealt with the University in a world at war. It was published in 1967. Part 2 brings the University History series through mid 1956. Work is already under way to deal similarly with the succeeding administration, that of Dr. Novice G. Fawcett, 1956-1972. The emphasis on Part 1 was more chronological than topical. In Part 2 the opposite is true. This caused some unavoidable overlapping and repetition but it was felt that this helped to offset the greater length of Part 2.
