George Plue was an Assistant Director under Moon (not Lowell!) until mene mene teckel ufarsen and he took a leave of absence September 1983. Keith G. Calkins got his job which entailed keeping the Computing Center running: Sigma hardware maintenance/development, CP-V operating system maintenance/development, etc. In addition to Dan we had Jim Wolfer by then. Actually, Dan and Jim were part-time with the then Computer Information Science Department. We had Clarence Thomas, Richard Kelly, and Dan Hamstra as student staff who eventually went full-time and have since left---not all so willingly.
October 1983 President Smoot encountered some legal difficulties best left unpublished. His next door neighbor Lowell said he was innocent, but left in May 1984! Moon hired Jim Massena back from Oakwood (he had worked at the LUC and HHES) as a half time programmer?
In 1987 the AU board appointed four assistant directors (RLB, KGC, RAN, RLB). Richard L. Bender (e-mail address here) left in Aug. 1994, largely because of Barnhurst/Wines and lives in exile in Florida "moonlighting" first at the Florida Hospital.
Keith G. Calkins was appointed Assistant Director for Technical Support. Robert D. Moon was lateraled on Nov. 15, 1989 and Wines (finacial VP) became acting director---times were difficult at best. By August 1990 Rob Barnhurst arrived who curiously lasted exactly 5 years. He told me once: "I have no use for Assistant Directors" so it was no surprise for me to lose that job in March 1993---see elsewhere for more details. Anyway, a lot of water has gone over the dam since those fateful days.
Lorena Bidwell was acting director until summer of 1996 when this Australian dude (David Heise) came who we still have to listen carefully to when he speaks. I guess even AUCC's name was changed in July 1997---it's now Information Technical Services (ITS).
Other historical tidbits will be added here as time permits---Good Day.
