Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Inauguration of James Rowland Angell, LL. D : As Fourteenth President of Yale University, June Twenty-Second Anno Domini Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-One In keeping with his known intention of retiring from office upon reaching the age of sixty-five, President Arthur Twining Hadley at a meeting of the Yale Corporation on April 10, 1920, formally tendered his resignation, to take effect at the close of the University year 1920-21. Ten months later, after a thorough survey of the field had been made by a Corporation committee appointed for that purpose, at an adjourned meeting on February 19, 1921, the Corporation elected as the fourteenth Yale President James Rowland Angell, a graduate of the University of Michigan in the Class of 1890, a former Professor of Psychology, at one time Dean of the University Faculties of the University of Chicago and Acting President of that University, and at the time of his election to the presidency of Yale University, President of the Carnegie Corporation of New York. In spite of certain drawbacks, the date chosen for the inauguration - Wednesday, June 22, 1921 - was deemed for several commanding reasons to be the best time available. A committee, with the Secretary of the University [Mr. Stokes] as Chairman and the Assistant Secretary of the University [Mr. Osborn] as Secretary, including Messrs. Brown and Farnam of the Corporation and the Provost [Mr. Walker]; several Deans [Messrs. Chittenden, Cross, Jones, Kendall, and Smith] and Faculty members [Messrs. Bakewell, F. B. Johnson, Meeks, and Mendell], the Chairman of the University Alumni Fund Association [Mr. Brown], and the Chairman of the Alumni Advisory Board [Mr. Mason], was charged with the arrangements.
