Interviewee: Cecil L. Wittson, M.D., Former Dean of the College of Medicine (19641968) and Former Chancellor of the University of Nebraska Medical
Center (1968-1972)
Interviewer: Bernice M. Hetzner, Former Director of the McGoogan Library
Medicine (1948-1973)
Date:
December 6, 1979
Wittson:
One of the things that isn’t known is how I happened to be president,
from dean to president.
Hetzner:
Well, let’s hear your story on that. I have an impression but I don’t
know whether –
Wittson:
What’s your impression?
Hetzner:
Well, this happened about the time that UNO, the University of
Omaha, became UNO. The University agreed that they would keep a
president at UNO, so-
Wittson:
The meeting occurred at my house and Cliff Hardin and Joe Soshnik
(end of tape)
Univeristy of Omaha Board of Regents at that time. They called and
asked if they could come over to see him along with some of the other
regents of the University and they were in deep and increasing
financial trouble. Joe Soshnik and I cooled our heels for almost two
hours; we didn’t know what was up. We speculated what this might
be because we knew that Omaha University was in trouble. These
people left and during that meeting Cliff agreed that he would use his
influence to, he had more influence than subsequent chancellors have
had, and so he discussed it briefly with Joe and me and said well, yes,
they’ll become a campus so they’ll have to be a separate campus,
Omaha will have to have a separate campus. I said wait a minute
now; you don’t mean the medical center will be a part of the West
Dodge High, and I used the words West Dodge High. No matter what
we were able to do here, your mother institution has a lot to do with
your accreditation, for example.
Hetzner:
Sure.
Wittson:
I said no way could this be part of it. Joe agreed; Cliff thought a few
minutes; all right, but they’re going to have a president. Whoever
�heads this campus has got to be president too, the same title as the
president there. Otherwise they will be unequal; they’ve got to be on
an equal basis to the other two campuses, a separate campus on an
equal basis. Right then and there it was settled because he was able
to carry the Regents and that’s how it occurred. So then I became
president and dean, and the reason why I stayed dean for two years
was that any money I got I wanted to put into new faculty or new
programs of some sort, and Mrs. Classen waa a very, very capable
person, and Pete Boughn permitted me to stay in contact with people
anyway; the more assistants you have the further away you get from
the people doing the work. That’s how it come about.

Interviewee: Harry W. McFadden, Jr., M.D., Interim Chancellor of the University of
Nebraska Medical Center (1972, 1976-1977)
Interviewer: Robert S. Wigton, M.D.
Date:
November 30, 2004
McFadden: Cecil had a number of people in the Medical Center, primarily faculty
members, who he took into his confidence and he would come into
your office periodically and sit down and talk about Navy medicine for
a while and then say, ‘Harry,’ or John or whomever, ‘what do you
think about this possibility?’ And he would go on and talk about a
vision for something, some activity or building or what have you,
about the College of Medicine and the new evolving Medical Center.
And, sometimes they were off the wall and you’d simply say, ‘Cecil,
that’s way out of it.’ And, he usually took your word, but other times
you’d think, ‘Well, that’s a pretty good idea.’ And, he might get a
few opinions of that sort, then he would fly with that vision and
seemingly it got done and was accomplished and happened. As a
result of that, I think he evolved and became the first Chancellor of
the Medical Center. Before his time, though, it was in a period of
evolution of growing differences. It wasn’t just a University of
Nebraska Hospital and a Medical Center, it became the College of
Nursing and the College of Pharmacy, and the Dental Center became
involved although located at Lincoln, and so the position as Chancellor
sort of evolved. Cecil, I think, earned the designation of the first
Chancellor of the Medical Center.

Interviewee: Rena E. Boyle, Ph.D., Former Dean of the College of Nursing (19721979)
Interviewer: Bernice M. Hetzner, Former Director of the McGoogan Library of
Medicine (1948-1973)
Date:
July 6, 1979
Hetzner:
This school is very important on the campus and I hope that this
record will be available to scholars in the future so they can see where
we’ve been.
Boyle:
We didn’t mention that transition in 1968-1969 from school to
college, but Dr. Wittson had asked me several times when I thought it
was time to have a college. I said not until we had both the graduate
and the undergraduate programs firmly established. Then, just before
he left, we wrote the materials, presented them to the Regents, and of
course, they had to go to the Legislature. Again Nebraska was
supportive of nursing and the college and was voted unanimously by
both groups.
Hetzner:
Yes, there was no question about it. It just went right through. It
was the logical development and. . .
Boyle:
It was good timing for it.
Hetzner:
Here, again, we go back to our friend, Dr. Wittson. He was the
master of timing, it seemed to me.

Interviewee: Rena E. Boyle, Ph.D., Former Dean of the College of Nursing (19721979)
Interviewer: Bernice M. Hetzner, Former Director of the McGoogan Library of
Medicine (1948-1973)
Date:
July 6, 1979
Boyle:
One of the things that came up very early was the fact that the
University of Omaha had a program for registered nurses. It led to a
baccalaureate degree in nursing, but it had no nursing. It had a course
in administration and in supervision, but nothing in clinical nursing. At
the time in the University, President Hardin had said there would be
just one nursing program and that it would be accredited.
That was quite an experience, too. How do you phase out a program?
The person who headed the program couldn’t have been more helpful.
We had a committee with more than half from UNO, from engineering,
from counseling, from liberal arts-you name it. I remember Dr.
Hodgson from here was on it and two of us from nursing. We were
able to plan so that the students in UNO’s program could either finish
it within the twelve month period or else come into the program here.
Much to my delight, it only hit the newspapers twice and in very small
articles and even those comments were not too negative. But it was
a very large program; they had over 150 in it.
Hetzner:
It must have gone out quietly because I don’t remember any great
fuss about it.
Boyle:
There really wasn’t and UNO has always been very supportive of the
nursing program.
