Excerpt from Proceedings and Addresses at the Inauguration of Jacob Gould Schurman, LL. D. To the Presidency of Cornell University: November 11, 1892 At a special meeting of the Board of Trustees held on Monday, the eighteenth of May, 1892, the resignation of President Charles Kendall Adams having been presented and accepted, Dr. Jacob Gould Schurman was unanimously elected president of Cornell University. A committee consisting of Hon. Andrew D. White and Dr. Daniel B. Salmon was appointed to notify Dr. Schurman of his election and to invite him to come before the Board and state his pleasure. In response to the invitation of the committee, Dr. Schurman appeared before the Board, and in a few brief remarks formally accepted the office to which he had been elected. At a subsequent meeting of the executive committee of the Board of Trustees it was decided that the inauguration of President Schurman should take place on Friday, the eleventh of November, and a committee of arrangements was appoint-pointed, consisting of Hon. Henry W. Sage, Chairman, and the following members of the Board, Robert H. Treman, George R. Williams, and Samuel D. Halliday. This committee decided to hold the Inauguration Ceremonies in Armory Hall, Friday, November 11th, at 10:30 A. M., and by special announcement all regular University exercises were suspended on that day. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
