Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Inauguration of Livingston Farrand, Fourth President of Cornell University, October 20, 1921 Board of Trustees of Cornell University- held on June 21, 1921, Dr. Livingston Farrand was unanimously elected President of the University. President Jacob Gould Schurmans resignation had taken effect on June 23, 1920.Albert William Smith, Dean of Sibley College of Mechanical Engineering, Emeritus, had been Acting President during the academic year1920-21. Soon after President Farrands election, a committee of the Board decided that his inauguration should take place on Thursday, October 20, 1921, and a joint committee of Trustees and Faculty was appointed to make the arrangements. Invitations were sent, in the name of the Trustees and Faculty, to about two hundred universities and colleges to be represented by delegate at the inauguration. Virtually all of them responded to the invitation by sending cordial expressions of good will, and about one hundred of them appointed delegates to attend the ceremonies. The eighty or more Cornell alumni associations and clubs were invited to send delegates, and about thirty of them did so. The committee of arrangements determined that the inaugural exercises should take place in Bailey Hall on the morning of the appointed day, that exercises attending the laying of the corner stone of the Laboratory of Chemistry should be held on the afternoon of the same day, and that in the evening the Trustees and Faculty should give a dinner to the President and Mrs. Farrand. All regular exercises of the University were suspended on the day of the inauguration. On the morning of October 20 the Board of Trustees assembled at Morrill Hall and the Faculty and delegates assembled at Prudence Risley Hall, and all went in procession to Bailey Hall.
