Historical Sketch

President Lemuel H. Murlin (1925-1928) dissatisfed with the alumni-controlled Athletic Board persuading the trustees to eliminate the it. He gave control of intercollegiate sports to a committee composed of members of the faculty and administration and named William L. Hughes to the dual position of professor of physical education and director of athletics. For the first time all athletic activities, both intercollegiate and intramural, as well as the required physical education work, came under the authority of a regular department of the university.
