THE OHIO VALLEY CONFERENCEEntering its 63rd year, the Ohio Valley Conference contin-ues to build on the success that has made it the nations eighth-oldest NCAA Division I conference. For only the sec-ond time in a decade, the Conference expanded by adding Southern Illinois University Edwardsville as the leagues 11th member in 2008. The move expanded the OVCs geo-graphical footprint to the St. Louis market and marked the first change in membership since expanding to the state of Alabama (Jacksonville State, Samford) in 2003.

The 2009-10 school year saw a change in leadership as Beth DeBauche was named the seventh full-time Commis-sioner in league history. She is currently one of just five females to be the head of a Division I conference, and one of just eight to lead a Division I conference all-time. The last three commissioners of the OVC have moved onto jobs as the commissioner of the Big Ten, Big 12 and the Mid-American Conferences.

The OVCs proud past dates back to 1948, but seeds for the new league were actually planted in 1941. It was then that Roy Stewart, the athletics director at Murray State, Charles (Turkey) Hughes, the athletics director at Eastern Kentucky, and Kelly Thompson, the public relations direc-tor at Western Kentucky, first broached the idea of forming a new conference. Discussions were put on hold by World War II, but reemerged Feb. 27-28, 1948 at the Kentucky Hotel in Louisville as the three original institutions com-bined with Morehead State, Louisville and Evansville to form the OVC.

In the 1950s, the OVC became a pioneer on a much more significant scale socially. During times of racial segregation, league member Morehead State became one of the first non-traditionally black mid-southern institutions to accept a black student. In 1958, Marshall Banks earned athletical-ly-related aid at Morehead, which signed a second black athlete, Howard Murphy, a year later. In 1961, Murphy earned all-conference recognition as a halfback in football. With racial barriers broken, the rest of the institutions in the league began to provide educational and athletic op-portunities to African-Americans.

A first in the OVC occurred in 2008, when the league had a first round draft pick in both the NFL (Tennessee States Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie) and Major League Base-ball (Eastern Kentuckys Christian Friedrich) Drafts in the same school year. The OVC sponsors the following sports: baseball, basket-ball, cross country, football, golf, tennis and track for men, and basketball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, tennis, track and volleyball for women. In addition, the OVC also sponsors the combined mens and womens sport of rifle.

Current league representatives include charter members Eastern Kentucky University, Morehead State University and Murray State University, along with Austin Peay State University, Eastern Illinois University, Jacksonville State University, Southeast Missouri State University, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, Tennessee State University, Tennessee Technological University and the University of Tennessee at Martin.

Tennessee State has been a member of the Ohio Valley Conference since 1986.

TENNESSEE STATE UNIVERSITY

The DAVIS BUILDING is topped by its landmark cupola and houses the Department of Languages, Literature and Philosophy and the Thomas E. Poag Auditorium. The building, which once housed the administrative of-fi ces, is named after TSUs second president Dr. Walter S. Davis.

Founded in 1912, Tennessee State University has grown dramatically from a small college to two campuses: the 500-acre main campus and the down-town Avon Williams campus which is located in the heart of Nashville near the State capitol.

The diverse student population of more than 8,000 represents 46 states and 45 countries. TSU has been listed for 11 consecutive years in the U.S. News & World Report Guide to Americas Best Colleges.

Tennessee State University is a comprehensive, urban, coeducational land-grant university offering 45 bachelor degrees and 24 masters degrees. Doctoral programs include biological sciences, psychology, public administration, computer information systems engineering, administration and su-pervision, and curriculum and instruction. When you think about Tennessee State University, many things come to mind a rich heritage and legacy in athletics, academics, entertainment, research and service.

Tennessee State University has long been a rising star among universities across the country. It is designated as one of the best public historically black colleges and universities in the nation, and its not by accident.

Tennessee State University is among the few historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) with a chapter of Phi Eta Sigma, the oldest and larg-est freshman honor society in the United States and a Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society, the most prestigious honor society comprising all academic disci-plines.

A great deal of focus has been given to improving the academic environment strengthening our research reputation, attracting and retaining the best and brightest students, encouraging service-focused programs, engaging and supporting expert faculty in diverse fi elds, building on our student-cen-tered philosophy and holding steadfast to our motto of Think. Work. Serve.

Currently, we are improving customer service and setting new standards of excellence in higher education. But with all the many examples of past accomplishments we can share, we are looking toward an even brighter future.

Additionally, the universitys rich strength in embracing diversity is evident with 45 countries and 46 states representative of the student body.

The beauty and accessibility of the universitys main campus is a plus with now 65 buildings on more than 450 acres.

Complimenting the main campus is a newly renovated downtown campus that features a simulated stock-trading center, a student computer laboratory and continuing education, distance learning and multimedia services.

The university is arming students with the intellectual resources to compete in a global environment. In support of that, important partnerships have been established with leading global companies such as Boeing, Raytheon, Dell, IBM and others, in which both funding and service-learning opportunities are currently active.

AVON WILLIAMS CAMPUSAVON WILLIAMS CAMPUS

The Avon Williams Campus is located downtown, near the center of the Nashville business and government district. Avon Nyanza Williams, Jr., a leading Afri-can American lawyer in Tennessee and state senator, represented the plaintiffs in Geier v. Blanton 1972.

In 1972, the federal judge, Frank T. Gray, Jr., allowed Sterling Adams and Raymond Richardson (two black professors of mathematics at TSU) and nearly 100 other black citizens from across Tennessee to enter the Geier case as plaintiffs. They formed Tennesseans for Justice in Higher Education. Their complaint centered on the issue that the presence in Nashville of two state supported universi-ties, Tennessee State University a historically black institution and predominately white University of Tennessee at Nashville, perpetuated a state of segregation in higher education in Nashville.

In February 1977, Judge Gray ordered the merger of both institutions under the governance of Tennessee State University.

This was the fi rst time that a court in a higher education desegregation suite had ordered a historically black college to take over a predominately white one. In 1979 the University of Tennessee at Nashville merged with Tennessee State University, creating an enlarged institution with two campuses and increased enrollment.

The original TSU campus, located in North Nashville is designated as the Main Campus and the former UT-N campus was renamed in honor of Avon Williams, Jr.

TSU President Melvin Johnson, Tennessee Governor Phil Bredesen and Nashville Mayor Karl Dean cut the ribbon at the Avon Williams Campus Renovation Opening Ceremony.
