First Faculty And Staff

When Morehead State Normal School reopened in 1923-24 as a public institution, President Frank C. Button employed nine people as its faculty and administrative staff: Charles D. Lewis, academic dean; Inez F. Humphrey, English; Emma Shader, music; Dan M. Holbrook, mathematics; Charles O. Peratt, history; Evelyn Royalty, expression (speech); Henry C. Haggan, agriculture; Ruby Vansant, mathematics; and Anna Carter, secretary. In 1960, these first nine were memorialized when student family apartment buildings in Lakewood Terrace were named for them, though all of those buildings have since been razed.
