Prior to serving at Augusta, Dr. Fordham was associate dean for clinical sciences of the UNC School of Medicine and chief of staff. From 1964 until 1968 he served as chairman of the Medical School's admissions committee. "I am especially pleased that Dr. Fordham will be returning to the University. He is an outstanding medical administrator and will provide leadership in the School of Medicine and in the State of North Carolina in the years ahead," Sitterson said. Dr. Fordham succeeds Dr. Isaac M. Taylor, who has been Dean of the Medical School for seven years. Dr. Taylor is stepping down to return to teaching in the Department of Medicine.

He joined the UNC Medical School faculty as an instructor in 1958. A member of nearly a dozen national and professional organizations, Dr. Fordham is an author of a score of articles that have appeared in professional journals. He is also author of a book entitled, "Manual for the Examination of Patients." which appeared in the April 23 issue of the DTH. It discussed the activities and problems of homosexuals in Chapel Hill, and was accompanied by a picture of two homosexuals embracing. "I had been considering the bill since about two years ago when some students came to me and complained about articles in The Daily Tar Heel," Allsbrook said. "Finally, when the picture and the story appeared, something had to be done about it." If passed, the bill would require universities "to afford at least once a year, to every student, an opportunity to refuse to pay for or receive some or all of the student publications" financed through student activities fees.
