Alabama Jazz Hall of Fame&#13;
Board Members&#13;
July 02, 2009&#13;
Dear Board Members,&#13;
First let me say how proud I am to be an Alabama musician and through the efforts of persons like yourself the Alabama Jazz Hall of Fame has been founded and promoted to preserve the talents of great Alabama jazz musicians. Because of the high respect which I and other Alabamians have for the AJHF I have submitted as a nominee to this great organization the name of an Alabamian who is truly a matriarch in jazz circles through out America and parts of the world. Ethel Jean Kittrell, was born in Dothan, Alabama on June 27, 1927, grew up and attended school in Gardendale and has maintained her Alabama legacy her entire life.&#13;
Jean attended school in Alabama, achieved her PHD at Southern Illinois University and served as a professor of English and Chair of the English Department of Southern Illinois University. But her real claim to fame is in her love for and her performing America's great traditional jazz. As you read her biography and hear her play you will realize her great talent, her musical skills and her commitment to audiences wherever she performs. Yes, in her early years I guess you could say she, like many musicians played in honky-tonks, club, and dances. But in her musical career she performed at major jazz festival through out America and abroad. She has been on stage with major symphony orchestras, on the rivers of America, on the water of the Caribbean and the Mediterranean. She has shared her talents in schools, non-profit benefits and churches far and wide. In reviewing her Alabama connections you will find she played at the early City Stages, did concerts in Mobile, Birmingham and Montgomery. One year she did a seven concert tour in four black belt counties. Carrying the message of jazz, its formation, its evolution and paying tribute to the creators of great American jazz. At age eighty-three Jennie sang her last job accompanied by one of the three bands she fronted and organized. IT IS NOW TIME FOR THE ALABAMA JAZZ HALL OF FAME TO HONOR ONE OF OUR STATES GREATEST JAZZ MUSICIANS.&#13;
Since her retirement some of the great musicians who played with her, some for thirty plus years, are carrying on the traditions and the interpretation which were developed and fostered by Alabama's own, Jean Kittrell. I urge you to read carefully her resume, letters written by fans and other professional musicians and of course listen to her CD's and you too will truly become a fan of Alabama's Queen of Jazz, Jenny Kittrell.&#13;
Sincerely, &#13;
Mike Mahan</text>

                <text>This letter, printed on the Mahan Creek Dental Office letterhead, was the first of many sent by Dr. Mike Mahan to nominate Jean Kittrell to the Alabama Jazz Hall of Fame. Mahan, who resides in Alabama, highlights some of Kittrell's many accomplishments in the letter, urging the board members of the Alabama Hall of Fame to honor Jean with induction. It was ultimately decided that though Jean Kittrell was born in Birmingham, she was an Edwardsville and St. Louis musician, and thus her legacy woud be better served through induction elsewhere. Thanks to these events and decisions, the Jean Kittrell Collection now exists in the National Ragtime and Jazz Archive which she worked so hard to help establish and advocated so much for throughout her life.</text>

Minutes Coll-ese Planning Committee M�ift5�b-lg&gt;,uisJiilit)t&gt;i�, 1957,
Community Room, Edwardsville National Bank and Trust Company
Building.

The meeting was called to order at 7:50 P.M. by the Chairman,
Mr. Reid G. B6yle, with the follm-ting present: Mrs. William
Rohrkastet Jr., Mr; E. J. Shepard, Mrs. William South&gt;,ick,
Dr. Ivan Cliff, :Mr. Gordon Dodds, Mr. Vernon Harris, and
Mrs. George Musso.

Nr. Boyle opened the meeting and offered the attached written
report on the College Planning Committee-activity and then
presented Dr. Harold See, Executive Dean, Resident Centers,
Southern Illinois University, Carbondale.
. . � .... -"· _

Dr. See reported to tne committee that as of right·now the
Governor approved our original request of $309 200,00 to use
in operating resident schools in Madison and st,. Clair Counties.

Dr. See explained the Alton and East Saint Louis resident schools
program are now in session with 225 enrollment at the Alton
installation, and Southern Illinois University are in the process
of employing faculty members to meet expanded curriculum.

The survey conducted by Dr. Alonzo Meyers of New York University
is widely accepted, and a series of meetings have been held w5.th
the Governor and Legislators using this survey as the basis of
information. The program introduced here has received broad
endorsement, a.nd a full four year college education would be
offered this September in the two resident schools. Enrollment
is expected to be light this semeste� because many students have
already determined where -they will attend this year, but heavy
enrollment is anticipated the following year.

The East Saint Louis High School Building is leased for �j;i.oo per
year, and Shurtleff College property is also rented at a rate of
7 per cent of the estL�ated value. 2 per cent is paid by Alton
industry. Southern Illinois University has an option, but no
intention is established on that question-at the present time.
Future use mii:;ht be for a research center, nurse training, or
some other continuing education program.
800 students would be capacity occupation at the Alton resident

school.

Tuition·rate would be the same as on oampus, or about

$160.00 per year.

A new Governor's Commission is being appointed. The new
cblI1lllission will be representative of lay·people, rather than
university presidents as was in the past.

�(2)

On the question of what is beint.; done toward a permanent tmiversity
during the process of establishing the resident sohools, Dr. See
advised nothing could be done until the public vo'ced the
$41 000,000 bond issue, If and when the money becomes available,
Southern Illinois University architects and engineerine department
would be called into action; and through a Selection Committee
the site would be determined. Location \JOUld probably not be in
any city, but rather in an open area ·where the required acreage
is available� This bond issue will be voted in Ootober or November
of this year.

Mrs. Rohrkaste said communieations are poor between the Southwestern
Illinois Council on Higher Education and the College Planning
Committee. Dr. See related the College Planning Committee is
represented on the Council by Mr. Schmidt and Mr. Noorman, therefore
information should be readily obtainable; however.,,. j:;11e_,_Executive
Committee of the Council would be pleased to have Mr. Boyle as
Chairman of the Colleg0 Planning Committee attend Council Heetings
to establish the desired liaison.

The Southwestern Illinois Council on Higher Education has not met
for two months and there hns not been too much of a need for
meetings, but perhaps the oommittee should meet shortly.

Dr. See recommended the Council and this Committee remain active,
and expressed an opinion that their services would be needed for
at least two _years. Both the Cou..'tlcil and the College Plar1ning
Committee could furnish background material and render other service
during the process of creating the four year college. In view of
this need, Dr. See heartedly solicited continued interest in the
affairs of higher education.

The speaker went on to say that we seldom seem to·realize how much
we have accomplished in the past year. After all, Dr. See remarkad i
we have received $309,200.00; and we actually have resident
centers in operation.
This aJ.one is a great accomplishment, and one to be proud of. We
should realize that our proposal has traveled a great distance
and has created a tremendous impression on many people, and none
of this would have been possible had it not been for the efforts
of the Ed'wardsville Chamber of Commerce and the work of its
College Planning Committee. Dr. See congratulated each member and
expressed appreciation for accomplishment.

In further discussion it was proposed that this committee invite
the Governor to Edwardsville September 24-25-26 and extend an
invitation to a dinner meeting for Southwestern Illinois Council on
Higher Education and the ColJege Plannj_ng Committee. It was then
decided such meeting should be co-sponsored by the Council and the
Chamber, and Dr. See was confident that one or two industries would
pick up the dinner check for such a meeting.

�(3)

It was decided to arrange a meeting bet1rrnen the Executive
Committee of the Council and the Chamber's Committee to make
arrangements for the September Meeting.

Al Pauli was instructed to draft a letter of invitation to the
Governor and to work with Dr. See in setting up the meeting with
the Executive Committee and this Committee.

General arrangements are to have dinner at the Country Club, and
if a public meeting can not be held there; then make arrangements
for the public meeting at the American Legion Park and reserve
the Edwardsville High School Auditorium in case of rain .•

The Governor will be asked to appear on the program to discuss
the higher education program.

In summary of the meeting, Mr� Dodds said he was ·1m.pressed by
facts presented here and enjoyed the proceedings.

the

· Dr. Cliff congratulated Southern Illinois University and especially
commended Dr. See for his leadership.
Mr. Shepard expressed interest in the subject and reported this
meeting as most interesting. He said a lot of progress has been
made, or at least more than we seem to realize.

Mr. Harris questioned the need of more meetings bet,-rnen this
Committee and the Council to prepare for the September Meeting,
stressing the need for background information.

Mrs. Rohrkaste said her questions are answered, .and she was
pleased to attend this meeting and was glad that it was held.

Mrs. 1'-fusso suggested we submit a list of questions on education to
the Governor so that we could get the answers on important matters
of interest to us.
Mrs. Southwi0k said she had nothing more to add, and was delighted
to be in attendance.

With no further business before the meeting, the Chair entertained
a motion to adjourn at 9:35 P .M.
Respectfully submitted,
