University of Southern California SUMMER A TROJAN Vol. XVII LOS ANGELES. CALIFORNIA, WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 10, 1966 72 No. 13 Dean Carl Hancey Dr. Carl Hancey. 61. Dean of USC s Aerospace Safety and Management Division and one of the world’s leading crusaders for safety in the air. died last Saturday at Good Samaritan Hospital, following a lengthy illness. Services will b? held this mornirg at 10 at Turner and Davis Mortuary. 550 E. Main St.. Aihembra. Burial will be at Hyde Park. Utah Dean H ancy’s birthplace. Despite serious incapacity. Dean Hsncey had continued to direct the flight safety program he inaugurated at USC 14 years ago. Only in recent weeks wss he forced to discontinue his daily visits to the campus end his office. Begt:n by Dr. Hancey as a division of University College, which he headed at LfSC from 1947 to 1965, the Aerospace Safety ?nd Management Division was fii>it known as the Aviation Safety Division. Under Dr. Hancey's direction the division pioneered studies in flight safety and in aircraft accident investigation. With the advent of ballistic missives, the division accepted new responsibilities in teaching about the safe handling and management of these weapons. More recently, the division undertook a highly successful program in aerospace operations management and now offers a master’s degree — the first advanced degree in that field in the world. During the period Dean Hancey has directed this ever-expanding effort, more than 5000 civilians and military personnel representing the U.S. and 37 foreign nations have been trained in the USC program. Dean Hancey directed expansion of the graduate program to accommodate the personnel on U.S. bases abroad, along with U.S civilians doing business abroad for American firms. The USC graduate program presently is offered in 12 locations in Germany, Japan. Hawai. France. Spain, and at the Pentagon, as well as at USC's own campus. Merit Award In 1965. Dean Hancey was awatded the Air Force Exceptional Merit Award, a civilian honor comparable to the military’s Distinguished Service Medal. The award was made in recognition of Dr. Hancey’s establishment of the USC graduate program in aerospace operations management. Two years ago. Dr. Hancey was honored by the Aerospace Medical Association for USC’s studies of aircraft accident prevention and investig a t i o n which resulted in development of sound aero-medical principles. Carl Hancey earned his bachelor's degree from Utah State University; the master of education degree from the University of Hawaii; the master of arts and the doctor of philosophy degrees from Yale University. Came In 1943 After directing teacher training at the University of Hawaii and servng as assistant director of Engineering, Science and Management War Training at Yale.
