First, thanks again for your help with the website: http://www.ibiblio.org/comphist/
I recently made more improvements. I've now got "Role(s) in computing at UNC:" and "What are you doing now?" in the registration form, and I changed the left menu item from "User list" to "Personal bios" -- I'm getting a little better with Views.
Here's the info about the March 18 celebration:
In 1959, the UNC Computation Center began operating with a Univac 1105
computer. In March 1960, Bill Friday presided over dedicating the
Computation Center.
