Abstract
Lock of hair from Dr. Jimmy Carr, assistant to the president, 1973-1997.
Included on the envelope the lock was in was this statement, "This envelope contains hair from the head of Dr. Jimmy 'Isn't it great to be at Harding' Carr."
Known for his boundless energy, exuberant enthusiasm, and thick white hair, Carr coined the phrase in the mid-70s, "It's great to be at Harding!" Just a few months before his retirement from Harding he reiterated that feeling by saying his time at Harding "has been the greatest experience of my career." During his tenure at Harding he helped provide the initial development for the College of Nursing, the Elderhostel activities on the campus, and Harding Place, the University's retirement community.
