Dykstra (center), addressing the George Mason University community and the media, April 3, 1973 in Finley Hall. On the right is former president, Lorin A. Thompson, while on the left is Rector of the Board of Visitors, John C. Wood. Dykstra did not think that it was appropriate that a child care center should operate on university grounds. In July of 1973, just before HCC was scheduled to receive its license, Dykstra sent a letter to HCC expressing his intent to immediately terminate the child care center’s rental agreement. Verley was able to convince Dykstra to negotiate a year-long extension of the rental agreement since the center was now licensed.
