Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Annual Reports of the President and Treasurer of Harvard College: 1899-1900 To the Board of Overseers: - The President of the University has the honor to submit the following report for the academic year 1899 - 1900, - namely, from September 28, 1899, to September 27, 1900. Charles Franklin Dunbar, Professor of Political Economy, died on the 29th of January, 1900, in the seventieth year of his age. Professor Dunbar was the first professor to be appointed in the University for political economy exclusively. He was Dean of the College Faculty from 1876 to 1882, and Dean of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences from its creation in 1890 to 1895. As an administrative officer he manifested a remarkable sagacity, and commanded the complete respect of his associates and subordinates; but his principal service to the University was the creation of a highly organized department of political economy. When first appointed he was the sole teacher of the subject; at his death there were in the department three full professors, one assistant professor, and three instructors. At the beginning of his service political economy could be studied by Juniors and Seniors only, and by them but briefly; at the end it was open to Freshmen, and could be pursued in every college year through a series of graded courses. To the numerous discussions which took place in the College Faculty between 1871 and 1900 Professor Dunbar contributed weightily, though not copiously. He was Editor of the Journal of Economics published by the University from its beginning in October 1886 until 1896.. He devised its methods, and watched its progress with the keenest interest. His own published writings gave authority to his teaching, and added to the influence of the University in the country at large.
