Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Proceedings and Addresses at the Inauguration of Andrew Sloan Draper, LL. D. As President of the University of Illinois: And at the Dedication of Engineering Hall, November 15, 1894 By the resignation of Dr. Selim H. Peabody, the presidency of the University of Illinois became vacant September 1, 1891. Professor Thomas J. Burrill was chosen acting president. At the meeting of the board of trustees held March 13, 1894, the committee that had been appointed to recommend a suitable man to fill the vacancy was advised to send some of its members to confer with Andrew Sloan Draper, LL.D., at Cleveland, Ohio. At a special meeting of the board of trustees held at the Lexington Hotel in Chicago, April 15, 1894, this committee, of which Professor Burrill, Nelson W. Graham, and James E. Armstrong were the members, reported that it had visited Dr. Draper and recommended that he be elected president of the University. After consultation with Dr. Draper, who was present by invitation, the report of the committee was unanimously adopted, and the committee was instructed to notify him of his election. This duty was formally performed by the committee, accompanied by the other members of the board, at the Auditorium Hotel at 10 o´clock on the following morning. By a letter addressed to Nelson W. Graham, chairman of the board of trustees, and dated May 10, 1894, Dr. Draper accepted the presidency of the University.
