Date of merger

Rublamb where did you get May 15, 1959, it isn't in the text and I have no idea where it is referenced from. I found a contradicting date at https://commons.emich.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1019&context=alumni_news Naraht (talk) 03:07, 9 May 2025 (UTC)

It was in the NPC table which was sourced to Fran Becque (which I trust). I will add this source to the article. Rublamb (talk) 03:19, 9 May 2025 (UTC)

It was in the Almanac too. Rublamb (talk) 03:23, 9 May 2025 (UTC)

Love to know where it was sourced beyond that.Naraht (talk) 12:51, 9 May 2025 (UTC)

Given that the difference is just two weeks, we are probably seeing the dates that the two boards voted. I tend to trust Fran's date, given the high reliance on archival materials. If you like, @Jax MN, can always check with the Almanac staff and see what their source is--meeting minutes, journal, etc. Rublamb (talk) 13:26, 9 May 2025 (UTC)

Found it! See p. 74 of Fran Becque's thesis for a history of the merger. Rublamb (talk) 14:51, 9 May 2025 (UTC)

Thanx. Wierdly, Anson & Marchesani in the thesis is referring to Baird's 20th.Naraht (talk) 15:36, 9 May 2025 (UTC)
