YSU experienced great gains and losses in 1986. Jim Tressel was appointed YSU’s head
football coach and Dr. Robert Rollin of the Dana School of Music was nominated for a
Pulitzer for his composition, Five Pieces for Flute and Piano…. Meshel Hall opened as
the university's high-tech facility and ground was broken for the conversion of Pollock
House into the new Wick-Pollock Inn. Also during the year, YSU faculty, staff, and
students participated in Hands across America and mourned the passing of Dr. Carol Gay,
co-founder (with her husband and colleague, Dr. Thomas Gay) of the YSU English Festival,
in memory of their late daughter, Candice.
