FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
FROM: Hugh J. Tuohey, Jr., Public Relations Officer
PHONE: HE 4-6154

New York, November 9 -- Frank C. Moore, chairman of the State Uni-
versity Board of Trustees, announced today that the Board has removed John
F. Lee from the presidency of the Long Island Center and terminated his
services effective immediately.

Mr. Moore said the Board has authorized Dr. Thomas H. Hamilton,
president of State University, to act as administrative head of the Center
during the period before selection of a new president.

Mr. Moore said the Board's unanimous decision was the culmination of

_ months of dissatisfaction with Lee's failure to demonstrate in his day to
day performance qualities so necessary in a college president. The Board's :
action followéd Lee's publicly advertised decision not to accept an oppor-
tunity to resign in accordance with the traditional practice of men in the
academic field.

Mr. Moore said the Board would not reveal details of Lee's actions
and inactions which caused it to completely lose confidence in his adminis-
tration.

Mr. Moore said Mr. Lee has never substantiated the loose charges
made in his recent public statement.

Mr. Moore asserted the State University Trustees are determined that
the Long Island Center shall be an outstanding institution ranking among the
finest in the nation, but that it had become self-evident this goal could not
be achieved with Lee.

Mr. Moore expressed confidence that the faculty and students would
support Dr, Hamilton's efforts to achieve unity and stability so that the
educational objectives of State University's Long Island Center could be
vigorously and successfully pursued.

As promised, I talked with Dr. Carrino
about a news item concerning the establishment of the public
relations department here at SUCA,

4g you know, Dr, Carrino heads the
department and since there was an article about him in the
August 10, 1961, issue of KeN, the "news" doesn't now seem to quite
add up to a separate article. Public relations activities are
part of his responsibility in his capacity as ascistant to the
president, But, if you're still interested, please let us knows

By the way, we were sorry to learn that a
call was made to the Kel office Saturday when a photographer didn't
appesr on campus, We regret this very mich as we fully realize these
tentative arrangements are always subject to change depending on what
other news natters come up which are more important,

Again, many thanks for your continuing
cooperation,

Sincerely,
