A five-day controversy rose on the campus of Rice University in February
1969 following the appointment of Dr. William H. Masterson by the Board of
Trustees as the university’s new President to succeed Kenneth Pitzer, who had
resigned in August 1968. Members of the faculty and student body protested in
particular the method by which Masterson had been appointed, which was
perceived as a unilateral decision by the Board without sufficient consultation
with the committee of faculty and students appointed earlier by the Board to
assist in suggesting and screening candidates’ names. A variety of personal
objections to Masterson himself were also voiced, along with concern about
appointment of a President from within the university (Masterson was a former
graduate of Rice who had joined the faculty in the Department of History in
1951 and served later as Dean of Humanities before leaving Rice in 1966 to
serve as President of the University of Chattanooga). As a result of the
pressure created by the protests and by a campus-wide poll conducted among
students and faculty (results of which were made known to Masterson), the
controversy ended with Masterson’s resignation as President on February 25th,
five days after his appointment had been announced.
The Masterson controversy can be seen within the context of a decade of
nation-wide turmoil resulting from (among other things) the Civil Rights
movement, the war in Vietnam, the emergence of feminism and women’s rights, and
a general rebellion against authority among many of the nation’s youth.
(Notable among other campus disturbances of the period was the confrontation
between students and National Guardsmen at Kent State University in Ohio in May
1970, in which four students were killed and nine injured).
Within two
weeks of the Masterson controversy, a committee was formed to sponsor an
undertaking called the Oral History Project on the Presidential Crisis of
February, 1969 at Rice University. The project sponsors were Joseph Cooper,
Associate Professor of Political Science and Chairman of the Department; Harold
M. Hyman, Professor of History and Chairman of the Department; and Richard H.
Lytle, University Archivist and Curator of Manuscripts and Rare Books, who was
appointed as Administrator of the Oral History Project. An outside consultant
and an interviewer were also appointed. The purpose of the project was “to
collect data for scholars doing research in social and economic change in the
university,” and funding was provided by a grant awarded by Rice University’s
Center for Research in Social Change and Economic Development.
Interviews were conducted between May and October 1969 and were recorded
on reel-to-reel magnetic tapes, from which transcriptions or abstracts were
then made. (See list of interviewees, pp. 4-5). Since interviews were begun
close to the end of the school year in May, students were scheduled first,
followed by faculty interviews in June.

The collection was given to the University Archives by the Oral History
Project Sponsors: Joseph Cooper, Harold Hyman, and Richard H. Lytle, 1969, and
1983.
The oral history interviews in this collection, originally captured on
reel-to-reel magnetic acetate-based tape in 1969 were digitally copied onto cd
format in 2003, in an effort to preserve the recordings. This work was
sponsored by the Rice Historical Society.
