Minutes of the University Senate, March ll, 1968 (Con't)

He had experience with several architectural firms in his home town
of Louisville. His B.A. Degree was from the University of Cincinnati
where he distinguished himself during his years of study.

 

He has a remarkable record of exhibitions, awards, and research for
a man not yet 30 in a profession which does not expect major contributions

before the age of 45. His talents extended also to art and music; he was 4
an accomplished professional guitarist.

In his personal relations John Ray found himself liked by students and
respected by his colleagues. He was married to the former Nancy Taylor
less than a year before his death.

John Ray's death is a great loss to those who knew and worked with him.
Beyond this personal tragedy is a loss to all of us; there are things in this 4
world which will not be done, contributions which will not be made, ideas
which will not be advanced, students who will not be inspired, because
John Ray is gone.

It cannot be said that John Ray enjoyed a long and distinguished career
at UK; instead it was short and promising——and in that fact lies our
conviction to fill as best we can the vacuum his passing has created.

 

Dr. Lewis Cochran, Dean of the Graduate School, presented a recommendation frm ’
the Graduate Faculty that honorary degrees be conferred on six persons at the May
1968 Commencement. The six persons whose names he presented were approved by the
Senate for the degree indicated for recommendation to the President and the Board of f

Trustees with the request that the names be withheld until the Board has taken actim f
and the nominees have accepted.
