TM: The span that was the most intriguing to me was my freshman year. And that’s because of all the incidents that were taking place around college campuses dealing with the Vietnam War and the Anti War movement. And protests, as a little ol’ Clayton boy, coming out of a pretty small, rural, area, you know I was a..a big fish here, you know, in a small pond, as they used to say, but when I went to Potsdam State it was an awakening; my eyes got opened because I saw the evolution back then of a movement on a college campus of .. anti war and protesting and it’s like watching a young child develop, you know what I mean?… and it happened fast. Once there was also another incident called the Chicago Seven and a couple guys, Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin were going around college campuses speaking about not trusting the government and challenging the status quo, at the time, and that it was time for a youth rebellion, time for the youth to stand up, so it was a very unique time in my life because of my eyes being opened to a larger scale and Potsdam certainly isn’t a huge campus, but yet in the Potsdam area you had St Lawrence University, Potsdam State University, Clarkson University, and then you had Canton ATC, so you’ve got four colleges within ten miles and that was a hot bed of back then a very liberal revolution… you know the push for change, and protest.

MV: They had a campus school that went with SUNY Potsdam, SUNY or State Teachers College, whatever it was called at the time. So they had a teaching school and that was across, that was on Main Street behind Snell Hall, Old Snell Hall.
CS: Oh, okay.
MV: Right across the street where we are here. So, that still stands. It’s actually the second rendition of it. At one point it was condemned and torn down. When Congdon was there, it was called Congdon Campus School and Congdon was the principal and the head of the school. They had an inspector come. We just read this online. We found this historical document about it. So, Potsdam was a teaching college and so, they had a practice school. It was called a practice school so all the students would get a chance to teach there. So, Congdon was in charge of this, Dr. Congdon, Some state inspectors came for the annual inspection of the building and it was a sandstone building and they found these great flaws in the building and said, and they vacated it right then and there that day they closed the school and made everyone go home. School was closed. I can’t remember the year.
CS: Uh huh.
MV: And Congdon, I mean like everyone was just freaked out. So, Congdon had a lot of political connections. This just seems so unreal, but he went to the Legislature. I think Snell, our local Bert Snell was part of Congress at the time. And he went and he said “We have to tear down this school. We have to put up a new school. This needs to happen right away.” Within so many months they had it torn down and rebuilt. I mean you could never get anything, and the legislature passed it and gave money for it. And he begged money for it from the state and federal. It was quite incredible.
