Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The American College Isaac Sharpless was born in Chester County, Pennsylvania, December 16, 1848. Graduating from Westtown School, he subsequently attended the Lawrence Scientific School of Harvard University, from which he received a diploma in 1873. His early interests were in teaching mathematics and astronomy; since then he has devoted special attention to the science of education and to the political and social movements of his neighborhood; in both these spheres he has taken a prominent part. From Westtown School he was called to Haverford College as Professor of Mathematics in 1875. In 1884 he became Dean; since 1887 he has been President. Dr. Sharpless holds honorary degrees from Hobart College, Swarthmore College, and the University of Pennsylvania. His publications include, besides several text-books on mathematics and astronomy, "A Quaker Experiment in Government," "Two Centuries of Pennsylvania History," "Quakerism and Politics."
