UMBC Faculty-Staff Bowling League Schedule, September 19, 1968. Collection 50, Series I: Faculty-Staff Bowling League 1968-1970, University Archives, Special Collections, University of Maryland, Baltimore County (Baltimore, MD)
UMBC's first chancellor, Albin O. Kuhn, worked hard to be an active figure in the UMBC community. One way he did this was by participating in a UMBC duckpin bowling league in 1968. The league consisted of various members of the UMBC community including faculty, staff, and their spouses. Chancellor Kuhn and his wife, Libby, can be seen on the above 1968 bowling schedule, under Team 5 and Team 3 respectively.
To learn more visit our new exhibit in Special Collections Presidents, Past & Present: A Biographical Portrait which explores the lives and leadership of UMBC's five university presidents and chancellors!
