Thomas W. Haught, A. M. Types of the wise who soar, but never roam; True to the khl ' dred points of Heaven and Home. — Wordsworth. Wisdom, foresight and strength of will displayed in an executive and judicial capacity are qualities which bespeak success in any leader. Such in a marked degree are the possessions of our Dean. A native product and for many years connected with the institution in an official capacity, he is the true type of the Wesleyan spirit. Dean Haught is well qualified for his work. In 1894 he graduated from the West Virginia Seminary. His A. B. bears the seal of West Virginia University, 1896 ; his A. M. was conferred by our own insti- tution. He has done two years ' post-graduate work in chemistry at Harvard and Johns Hopkins. Twenty more years in the school of experience have given us an executive of whom we are justly proud. A greater and a better Wesleyan is the flame of his hopes and aspirations. Firmly planted on the vantage ground of Truth, he is never diverted from his aims by problems of any degree of perplexity. At times a mark for criticism, as any executive must be, it is a pleasure to see his superior judgment invariably forge to the front. Those who know him best trust him most. It is noble to give one ' s life in foreign service ; it is heroic to give up a life on a battle-field for human rights ; but what can be more deserving of praise than to live one ' s threescore years in a single community directing aright those lives which come under one ' s influence. This is the work of Dean Haught at Wesleyan. Page 10
