It is a pleasure to inform you that your center has achieved the highest CCDS score from the objective evaluation process used during your August review at NASA Headquarters. In addition, your affiliates' assessments provided very positive insight relative to your center; copies of their assessments are enclosed. You and your staff are providing excellent leadership in facilitating the Commercial Use of Space. It is through efforts like yours and your affiliates that the future of the United States in space commerce will be carved out. In a sense, CMC is paving the way for utilizing space for business and science opportunities in the 21st Century. Based on your progress and successful experiments aboard several shuttle flights, you are setting a precedent that is worthy of emulation by each member of the CCDS family. The cooperative environment CMC has developed with the U.S. universities and industry will help develop the foundation for strengthening this nation's position in the international competitive arena that is developing in space commercialization. In addition, your willingness to work diligently within the NASA CCDS program and matrix science and technology to expedite and cost effectively achieve common goals is helping to develop a cohesive force that is unprecedented in government, university and industry relationships. Specifically, you have depicted CMC as having clearly defined goals and objectives that are heavily funded by industry. You have an excellent advisory structure with an active board which demonstrates an outstanding commercial focus. The quality of your staff is excellent and highly regarded within the science community. Your technology development is right on target inasmuch as it is very focused and projects selected are based on industry input. The professional visibility of your CCDS is very high as seen by the numerous publications in refereed journals, professional society activities and the conduct of your annual symposium. You have demonstrated excellent leadership in developing feasibility studies with businesses and understanding the user market. It is apparent by the memberships/partnerships that CMC has developed a good representative client base. In the area of commercial product development you have portrayed highly patentable products and excellent product focus. The establishment of Biocryst as the first CCDS Spin-off commercial company has shown the CCDS program that it can be done and has provided incentives for others to follow. Our compliments to you for a job extremely "well-done". Sincerely, Raymond P.

The Production staff is trained in all aspects of video and audio production. They are also responsible for coordinating, scripting, and editing projects. The Engineering staff is well-versed in the technology and science of telecommu- nications and is responsible for the per- formance of the equipment. From satellite dishes to fiber optics, our engineers under- stand and control the technical quality of production. Experts in live satellite educational broadcasts, the Teleconferencing staff produces a complex schedule of satellite programming. In addition, they broker space segments for a wide variety of educational and commercial clients. From sets to computer animation, the Design staff is responsible for the visual content and art direction of all productions. They provide innovative solutions to graphic design problems in a wide variety of projects. Who Uses ETS? Schools, Expanding Their Curriculum Considered a pioneer in distance learning, ETS helps schools utilize their limited resources to bring learning-by-satellite programs to their classrooms. The award-winning Arts and Sciences Teleconferencing Service (ASTS) delivers science, language, and mathematics courses to hundreds of public schools across the U.S. Teachers are no longer limited to one classroom, and students are no longer limited to one set of teachers. With ETS, any organization can help students and teachers meet higher educa- tion requirements and provide continuing education opportunities to adults. Broadcast studios display Electronic meeting rooms Professionals, Conducting Business Through Teleconferences creative, professional offer cost-effective Nationally recognized for the progress it has made in the field of live interactive set design. communication. video teleconferences, ETS now schedules more than 1,000 live satellite programs annually.

Technological advancements or break- throughs in surgical techniques, for example, can be efficiently communicated worldwide in a matter of hours. What Is The Future Of ETS? OSU's commitment to telecommunications excellence has established ETS as the first educational teleport in the U.S., a premier facility that will make OSU a focal point for commerce and industry in the years to come, using the latest high-tech delivery system to serve today's business and educational needs. With the unlimited knowledge base existing in the faculty of OSU and the state, national, and international networking capabilities of NUTN and ASTS, program- ming possibilities are endless. It is with a spirit of adventure, optimism, and excite- ment that we anticipate what lies ahead.

Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Mr. Swift: Per our conversation this morning, the attached information is provided to describe Oklahoma State University and to indicate our interest in your support for a series of telecon ferences emenating from OSU highlighting on the President's education goals. We propose to hold a series of teleconferences dealing with education issues and sharing with other colleges and universities as well as secondary education institutions across the country. Our first teleconference would involve live broadcast feeds of the President's addresses at both the OSU Commencement and later May 4th to the Oklahoma Foundation for Excellence. (Our assumption is that the President will highlight the importance of education and indicate administration goals in his speeches. Assuming he does further define his education objectives, we believe the message would be well received at many additional sites.) At the conclusion of the President's speeches, we would have reaction to his comments by key educational leaders indicating support for the President's initiatives. On datco scheduled subsequent to May 4, we would hold at least two other live interactive video teleconferences featuring educational leaders and state governors sharing innovative programs that have been successful in their respective states. We would ask governors to share the education initiatives that they have begun since the Education Summit in Williamsburg. It should be noted that Oklahoma State University is a national leader in distance learning and satellite transmission of educational programming and coursework. The National University Teleconference Network is head- quartered at OSU and has membership of more than 300 institutions nation- wide. We believe these teleconferences will make for an extremely useful CENTENNIAL 1890 1990 Celebrating the Pasi Precar Future 03/22/90 17:19 405 7447923 UNIVERSITY EXTEN 003 Judd Swift Page 2 March 22, 1990 dialogue among education leaders throughout the country, utilizing the President's remarks in our first proposed teleconference to set the frame- work for national exchange of ideas in subsequent teleconferences.

Jerrell Chanicy March 20, 1990 MAR 23 1990 Mrs. George Bush First Lady PRESIDENT'S OFFICE The White House Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Mrs. Bush: Each year Oklahoma State University presents the Henry G. Bennett Distinguished Service Award to individuals who have truly rendered outstanding and unselfish service to our fellow human beings. The Award is named as a lasting tribute to a former President of Oklahoma State University, Henry G. Bennett, who, along with his wife, lost their lives in a plane crash in Ethiopia during an American educational mission related to the Point Four project. Because of your continuing service to promote literacy and the cause of education, Oklahoma State University and its governing Board of Regents wishes to honor you by presenting you with the Henry G. Bennett Distinguished Service Award during Commencement exercises on May 4, 1990. Dr. Bennett had a vision for the University that enabled OSU to follow through even after his untimely death. It seems to the world, Mrs. Bush, that you are sharing in the vision your husband has for this great country of ours. You seem to have been able to strike the perfect balance of being completely supportive of President Bush's mission without becoming embroiled in political debate. To millions of American families you have shown that there are values in life which are not outmoded or outdated such as being a loving help mate and an understanding mother and grandmother and still be able to take time in your life for people and causes in which you believe. President Bush has agreed to honor the University by giving the Commencement address at Oklahoma State University on May 4, 1990. TO have you accompany the President and let us honor you would please us beyond measure. (Continued on page two) Mrs. George Bush March 20, 1990 Page two As First Lady of the United States of America, you have brought great dignity and new appreciation to the position you hold. TO be very candid, you have von the hearts of all Cklahomans as wall as all Americans, and it would give us great pleasure to have you visit our campus on such a happy occasion. OSU will be 100 years old on December 25, 1990, which means we are in the midst of celebrating many memorable events this year. Having the President visit the campus during OSU's Centennial Year is an occasion to which thousands of Oklahomans are looking forward with great anticipation. To have the Presidential couple visit the campus would be a historical first in our 100-year history. I respectfully ask you to consider the trip to OSU with the President on May 4. If you could let us know when your decision is made, we would be most appreciative. Sincerely, Carolyn Savage, Chairman OSU Board of Regents CS/CW XC: Governor Henry Bellmon U.S. Senator David Boren U.S. Senator Don Nickles OSU President John Campbell Members of the OSU/AM Board of Regents Birdwell Oklahoma State University STILLWATER, OKLAHOMA 74078-0001 WHITEHURST HALL 405-744-6384 FAX: 405-744-8871 OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT March 16, 1990 Mrs. George Bush The White House Washington D.C. 20500 Dear Mrs. Bush: It is a genuine pleasure to advise that the Board of Regents for Oklahoma State University (OSU) unanimously approved you as a recipient of the 1990 Henry G. Bennett Distinguished Service Award. We are hopeful that you can be on hand to accept this award at the May 4, 1990, Commencement commemorating the 100th birthday of OSU. The only caveat in receiving this high honor is to be present for the recognition. Oklahoma State University annually recognizes unusually outstanding individuals with the Henry G. Bennett Distinguished Service Award. This year, in addition to your receiving the award, we will honor Wilma P. Mankiller, Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation, and H. F. Donnelley, a distinguished native son of Stillwater, Oklahoma. Named in memory of the visionary leader who served this University with great distinction as President from 1928 to 1951, this award is the highest honor awarded by Oklahoma State University. Former recipients include crew members of the first Apollo lunar mission, Emperor Haile Selassie, United States Senator Henry Bellmon, Nobel laureate Norman Borlaug, Pennsylvania Supreme Court Justice Juanita Kidd Stout, newsman Paul Harvey, and other distinguished men and women. Presentation of the award citation and medallion will be an important part of our Commencement program, which highlights the academic year at OSU. The Commencement exercises begin at 2:00 p.m. As you know, your husband, the Honorable George Bush, will deliver the Commencement address. We will be in touch with your staff regarding details of the schedule. Meanwhile, we would appreciate receiving a biographical summary highlighting your distinguished record of public and private service, a photograph, and any additional information that might be useful in preparing appropriate publicity releases and printed materials for distribution.

From a nucleus of an extension center founded in 1936 and a medical center established in 1945 by the University of Alabama, UAB has grown from a three-block area into a 70-block, comprehensive urban university and medical center complex.

She was the first person to participate in a new program called Heart-to-Heart. Begun by a UAB car- diologist, the program is designed to provide treatment for young African patients and eventually establish a nationwide network between doctors in the United States and Africa. Tragedy was turned to triumph in August 1989 when UAB surgeons suc- cessfully removed an inch thick, six-inch long wooden stick which had impaled the heart of a 9-year-old Haleyville boy in an all-terrain vehicle accident. Indeed, the "heartbeat" of UAB is the UAB Medical Center, providing health care and medical research which bene- fit not just Alabamians, but people throughout America and the world. The UAB Medical Center was named by the authors of "The Best in Medicine" as the third best overall hospital in the country behind the Mayo Clinic and Massachusetts General Hospital. The Harvard professor who compiled the rankings, based on responses from 300 physicians and other medical care professionals, said UAB "was on everyone's list." They cited UAB's Comprehensive Cancer Center, one of 20 in the country, for its research and treatment of the disease, as well as for the nuclear car- diology research being done there by a nationally recognized team of cardiologists.

"Consequently, employers are wanting graduates who have a broad-based background, not just in English composition and litera- ture, but also in ethics, foreign cultures, public speaking and computer literacy." Universities once shied away from placing additional requirements on engineering, business and other schools, partly because their curricu- lums already were so stringent. However, every UAB undergraduate must complete courses in foreign cul- tures, ethical reasoning and computers, as well as traditional core courses in English and mathematics. "More and more, employers do not want an accountant who can't go to the symphony," Gauld says. "And with in- ternational trade increasing, it's impor- tant for graduates to be familiar with Japanese and European cultures."

It all started as a vision. We wanted to create a building that could be found only in Birmingham, a city that has spent more than a century defining its own unique style. And we wanted to create a building that would be an ideal workplace, filled with the comforts and advancements of the modern business world. Now the vision is real. The world renowned architectural firm of Hellmuth, Obata, and Kassabaum designed AmSouth/Harbert Plaza to be a monument to Birmingham's future and a reflection of its past. It's a building where technology and detail are central to the vision. The most sophisticated systems insure comfort and security. There's even a Retail Promenade. No convenience has been overlooked. The result is a blending of form and function, a timeless landmark to technology and style. AmSouth/Harbert Plaza not only captures Birmingham's history. It will also shape its future.

His successor, S. Richardson Hill, recalled those remarks a decade later and added that both the city and state have been well served by the realities born of these dreams. Now, at the completion of our second decade, it is appropriate that I, as the third president, acknowledge what has been thus far achieved.
