Show PRESIDENT WITNESSES CHANGE President William P. Miller's administration has witnessed revolutionary changes in the years since he was appointed the President of Weber College. President Miller graduated from Weber College in 1926, received his Bachelor of Science Degree from Utah State University in 1936, his Master's degree from the University of Utah in 1942, and his Doctorate of Education from Stanford in 1949. Through his vigorous leadership, the college has developed from the junior college status to Weber State College, a four year degree-giving institution which is now seeking to initiate a graduate program. President Miller has seen the student body expand from a thousand students to the 8800 enrolled in the fall of 1967. Since his appointment the campus has grown from 175 to 275 acres, and four buildings to fifteen with the Science Building, the high-rise dormitory, and the addition to the Union Building under construction, two to be started within the next year, and several more in the planning stages. He has developed an outstanding faculty which has grown from less than 100 to a combined faculty-staff of 500. President Miller's leadership abilities have been outstandingly proved by his role in the growth of Weber State College. |
