March 22, 1969. This video was created by joining two silent home movies together, which play on a continuous loop, and have a title card and sound added. The audio segment included here was extracted from a complete version of Eckley's Inaugural Convocation, originally on reel-to-reel tape, which has been enhanced. The 16mm films are in color but color correction has also been applied. A program for the inauguration and the text of Dr. Eckley's remarks are available at digitalcommons.iwu.edu/eckley_inauguration. Unedited digital files created from the 16mm and reel-to-reel originals are available through Illinois Wesleyan University's Archives.
