Description
Rosemary McGee (1926- ) was a faculty member in the physical education department of The University of North Carolina at Greensboro for thirty-four years, retiring in 1988. During that time she also served as acting dean of woman students and acting dean of the School of Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance. McGee discusses the role of measurement and evaluation in the field of physical education, the struggle with The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill for the doctoral program and the change in direction for the physical education department and faculty. She describes the strong leadership roles of women in her life and on campus and the administrative styles of Ethel Martus Lawther and Katherine Taylor. She recalls the transition to a coeducational institution, the first male faculty in her department and anecdotes from her days as residence hall counselor.
