Universities and colleges--Mergers
NU-OU Merger
Clip from a 16 mm file showing the ceremony recognizing the merger of Municipal University of Omaha with the University of Nebraska. ilm
<p>The merger ceremony announcing the University of Nebraska at Omaha occurred on July 1, 1968, on the steps of the Arts & Sciences Hall and included the "official" transfer of the institution to the University of Nebraska Board of Regents. Municipal University of Omaha speakers included Randall Owens, President of the Student Senate, President Kirk Naylor, and Robert Spire, chair of the Board of Regents. Merger festivities also included social occasions for university officials, including a lawn party on the grounds north of ASH and a luncheon in the student union building. Classes were dismissed for the event.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Nebraska Educational Television Network filmed the merger ceremony that took place in front of the Arts & Sciences Hall, which at midnight on July 2, 1968, became the UNO campus. Bob Van Neste provided commentary on the process and speakers to those who watched the ceremony.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Robert Spire, President of the Board of Regents of the Municipal University of Omaha, introduced each of the speakers. Governor Norbert Tiemann, provided the first remarks following an invocation. Tiemann noted: "Today is a beginning. Not only of a great university, but of a frowth industry for the city of Omaha, the state of Nebraska, but more important, here is tangible evidence of a spirit of unity that binds our entire state…." He focused on academic excellence in the state.

<p> </p>
<p>Represented university students, Randall Owens, President of the University of Nebraska at Omaha Student Senate discussed change: "It was a democratic decision and a significant part of the change occurring today was due to student concern and participate, and rightfully so it should be. This is an institution of higher learning, this is a classroom for the student…" (View streaming video clip: <a href="https://mediahub.unl.edu/media/9346" title="Merger Ceremony: Randy Owens" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://mediahub.unl.edu/media/9346</a>)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>John D. Blackwell, head of the Art Department, and President of the University Senate noted in his speech that "if the spirit of cooperation, the evidence of outstanding leadership which has characterized the initial efforts, are continued in the years ahead, the University of Nebraska, and all its complexities, will rank among the top in American institutions of higher education."

<p> </p>
<p>President of the University of Nebraska at Omaha Kirk E. Naylor, spoke on the many "memorable occasions" associated with the University in Omaha. He stated "The state of Nebraska can justifiably be proud of the education institution which it supports, and today represents a leap forward in education endeavors. Already possessing in a great university complex, a great land grant institution, and rapidly expanding medical center, today the state is witnessing the birth of an urban grant university, one that is dedicated to complementing the area it serves."

<p> </p>
<p>The final speaker of the ceremony, University of Nebraska Chancellor Clifford Hardin, chief administrative officer of the entire system of the University, rather than only the position of Chancellor at UNL, and spoke of an opportunity "of providing the best possible learning environment for the young people of this state and utilizing the resources of the great institution for the benefit of all our citizens."
