Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Tulane University of Louisiana: Commencement Address; June 30, 1898 But you well remember the paralysis that struck New Orleans in September, when every door was barred against her. Surely then it seemed that this year´s work was destined to failure, and that we might come out at its end crippled and set back in the great race of educational achievement. We had to lose two months of our session, October and November; but we opened with a full attendance; and by extra work, the ignoring of holidays and the zealous co-operation of professors and students, we believe that we are to-day at the close of one of the most successful sessions since our organization. In two departments of the University there was a slight, but not discouraging, decrease in the number of students, as was expected. But in the Law Department and in our Academic Colleges there has been an actual increase in numbers and a very marked improvement in tone and scholarly attainment. This has been a source of profound congratulation among the friends of Tulane University, and is of good omen for the future. Moreover, our graduates who have gone elsewhere to pursue special lines of study win fresh laurels in new fields, and write, or bring back word, that our endorsement and degrees are recognized everywhere as a sure proof of attainment. We have, indeed, much reason for congratulation and our satisfaction would be unalloyed but for two misfortunes. One is the loss of our well-beloved Professor Hurt, upon whom fell suddenly the mortal stroke in the midst of his duties and usefulness.
