Description
An account of the resource
Dr. Kuhn's brainstorming took physical shape in 1965 when he hired Guy Chisholm from UM College Park to serve as the director of the physical plant and supervise the construction of UMBC. A native Texan, Chisholm had earned a degree in landscape architecture and later became a partner in a Texas construction company before taking a position with UM. Kuhn especially relied on Chisholm to figure out the best design of the first campus dormitories. Another person vital to the founding of the campus was Homer W. Schamp, Jr., who was the second full time UMBC person hired. Schamp was a professor in UM College Park's legendary Department of Physics and served as director of the Institute for Molecular Physics. He was hired by Kuhn to be UMBC's Dean of Faculty and to recruit the founding faculty of the new school. The photograph shows Kuhn, Schamp, and Chisholm, holding rolled architectural plans, conferring about the construction then underway.

An account of the resource
John D. Haskell was the first full time UMBC employee. He was responsible for starting the Library, although Haskell's initial days at the university were spent not at UMBC but at College Park where he was oriented into the policies and procedures of the University of Maryland libraries system." It was Haskell's job to have 75,000 volumes of books and periodicals available" when the campus opened in 1966. He left UMBC in 1969 to enroll in a doctoral program for American Studies from George Washington University; Haskell retired in 2006 after a long career at the Earl Gregg Swem Library of the College of William & Mary.
