Richard A. Compton
Richard A. Compton (July 9, 1926 – 1993) of Ithaca, New York was an American educator, hotelman and expert in the facilities management within resort and entertainment industry. Trained as an engineer and not as a hospitality service provider, Compton was among the first to organize the emerging study of hotel management along the same rigorous research criteria applied to other academic disciplines.〔Paul R. Broten, "Progress in Hotel Research and Development," 11 ''Cornell Hotel and Restaurant Administration Quarterly'' 2-3 (Nov. 1970).〕

Taking his engineering Bachelor of Science in mechanical engineering at Cornell University in 1948, Richard “Dick” Compton served as a Professor of Hotel Administration at Cornell University’s School of Hotel Management. Significant in Compton’s trend of more extensive research into the practices of the hospitality industry were two of his works, ''Wall Surfaces: A Research Report on Minimum Requirements'' (1965) and ''Carpets Woven of Wool and Stainless Steel'' (1967). In the late 1960s, Compton’s professionalization of hotel management research led to support for the application of new technologies to internal management controls of the hospitality sector of the economy.〔"Cornell Presents Computerized System of Managerial Controls for Hotels and Motels," 10 ''Cornell Hotel and Restaurant Administration Quarterly'' 2-4 (November 1969).〕
National Security A veteran of the United States Army, Compton served on the Cornell Faculty team executing U.S. Department of Defense Contract No. OCD-OS-69-42 in the late 1950s. The contract funded research into optimum food service procedures for fallout shelters; the purposes, responsibilities, policies and operations of the person selected to manage these services under the overall supervision of the shelter manager; and workable solutions to the many problems that could arise and to suggest and to explain minimum equipment needed to support sheltered American in the aftermath of a thermonuclear exchange between the United States and the Soviet Union. The report concluded, “unless the nuclear disaster is so devastating and bewildering that the population is incapable of its usual adaptive behavior and willingness to cooperate, in our opinion, competent water and food management should be able to guide most of the people through a shelter experience.”〔AD 40371 at ii.〕 In subsequent projects, the team proposed training regimes in licensed fall out shelters to achieve the “preservation and development of the basic social objectives . . .” of American culture〔AD 403808 at iv.〕 and that “()omplaining occupants need to be reminded frequently that all men can endure much more than they think they can, if they will have the will to do it, especially for the common good.”〔Id.〕
