Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Columbia University Quarterly, Vol. 7: 1904-1905 The formal exercises marking the opening of the 151st year of Columbia University were held September 28 on Morningside Heights and on September 29 at the College of Physicians and Surgeons at 59th Street. On Morningside Heights the usual academic procession was formed in the Library at 3 o´clock in the afternoon and proceeded to the Gymnasium, which was crowded with students and visitors. Among the visitors present in addition to His Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, Mrs. Davidson, and the Archbishop´s two chaplains, Messrs Ellison and Holden, were Bishops Potter and Greer of New York, Bishop Brewster of Connecticut, Bishop Worthington of Nebraska, Professor Sadler of the University of Manchester, Hamilton W. Mabie, Associate Editor of "The Outlook," Benjamin Ide Wheeler, President of the University of California, and Mr. Charles F. McKim, of Messrs. McKim, Meade and White, architects. After a brief religious service conducted by the Chaplain, President Butler spoke words of greeting to the faculty and the students. He then dwelt upon the association of the name of the Archbishop of Canterbury with the foundation of Kings College, and welcomed His Grace as the successor of one of the first board of governors. The President´s words of welcome were followed by an address on "Academic Ideals" by Robert Simpson Woodward, Ph.D., LL.D., Dean of the School of Pure Science, which has been printed in full as a leading article in this issue.
