Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Addresses at the Induction of Professor Timothy Dwight: As President of Yale College, Thursday, July 1, 1886 At a Special Meeting of the Corporation of the College, held on Thursday, May 20, 1886, the Rev. President Porter presented (in accordance with a purpose announced in October, 1885) his resignation of the Presidency, to take effect at the induction of his successor; and later in the same day the Rev. Timothy Dwight, D.D., Professor of Sacred Literature in the Theological Department, was elected to the Presidential office. The Corporation intrusted the arrangements for the inauguration to a committee of their own number, with the President-elect, who were empowered to avail themselves of such assistance as might prove desirable; the invaluable assistance rendered the committee by Mr. Charles H. Farnam, of New Haven, of the class of 1868, should be specially acknowledged here. The date selected for the ceremony, the day after Commencement, was on most accounts a convenient one, insuring from its relation to Commencement Day the presence of a large body of the graduates; but it was regretted that Commencement exercises at their own Colleges detained many of the officers of other institutions who might at a less busy season have been present. It was also a subject of regret that only a limited number of the undergraduate students were still in residence, their duties for the term having ended the week before.
