- Description:
- The only known recording of President Benjamin Harrison presumably made years after his presidency by Giuseppe Bettini, sometime between 1894 and 1899. This modern recording features a narrator explaining how Harrison's voice was recorded and features the 1814 campaign song of Harrison's grandfather "Old Tippecanoe," President William Henry Harrison, which was resurrected for Benjamin's 1888 campaign. The Library of Congress says only one copy of the recording has been found and is located at the Benjamin Harrison Memorial Home and this recording was made from that recording.

- Description:
- Ajovi Scott-Emuakpor discusses his international career as a geneticist, physician, faculty member and administrator, much of it spent in the Department of Pediatrics and Human Development at Michigan State University. Ajovi recalls coming to MSU from Nigeria in 1965 as an undergraduate, joining the department as a graduate student in 1968 and working with the original faculty. He describes the college's early curriculum and focus on patient care and recognizes the uniqueness of pioneering efforts now copied at many other institutions. Ajovi also talks about returning to Nigeria to become Director of the Institute of Child Health and later coming back to MSU as a Professor in the Department of Pediatrics and Human Development. He says that collegiality in the department has now waned in the face of administration changes, retirements, and plans to move the school to Grand Rapids. Sociology Professor Meritus Dr. David J. Kallen conducts the interview as part of the MSU Department of Pediatrics and Human Development Oral History Project.
