<strong>Exhibit Labels:</strong><br /><br />[1] Leadership transition (2015). In 2015, President Lloyd Jacobs announced his resignation. As the search for his replacement began, Dr. Nagi Naganathan stepped in as interim. He served the University in this capacity until the University's first female president, Dr. Sharon Gaber, was selected to be the 17th President of the University of Toledo.<br /><br />[2] UToledo Water Task Force formed (2014). For two days in August, Toledo residents had no access to potable water due to toxins from algal blooms in Lake Erie. In response, Interim President Nagi Naganathan appointed a task force to provide support and information to the community as well as address the health of Lake Erie and to protect the drinking water of Northwest Ohio. <br /><br />[3] Student Union re-dedication (2016). Dr. Lancelot Thompson joined the University of Toledo in 1958 as a professor of chemistry and first full-time black faculty member. In 1967, he stepped in as the University's first vice president for student affairs, a position he held until his retirement in 1988. Upon his death in 2016, the University sought to honor him and his legacy by rededicating the Student Union in his name. <br /><br />[4] Interprofessional Immersive Simulation Center opens (2014). Under construction since 2012, the Health Science Campus' 60,000 square foot Interprofessional Immersive Simulation Center opened with a ribbon cutting on April 22, 2014. Built at a cost of $36 million, the Center aimed to provide better training for new health professionals through simulation models and simulated clinical settings. It was later renamed the Lloyd A. Jacobs Interprofessional Immersive Simulation Center.<br /><br />[5] The University celebrates 150 years of promoting knowledge (2022). The University of Toledo looks back on 150 years with special events, starting on October 12, 2022, Founders Day.
