Cancelled due to Eric’s hospitalization for stomach ulcers and lengthy recovery period.

Note that the campus had two concert venues: Hammons Student Center (which Eric played in 1979) and the McDonald Hall & Auditorium. Both were popular with touring musical acts in the 1970s and 1980s. As this tour was cancelled, it is unknown which venue the concert was booked for on the college campus.
