HENRY LAWRENCE HITCHCOCK C1855-18715 In 1855, Henry Lawrence Hitchcock, a Presbyterian minister, was elected to the office of President. the college through one of its most trying eriods. He was in the chair during the nancial crisis of 1858 and the period of the Civil War. The entire college, pro- fessors and students alike, entered the active service. He freed the college of a huge debt and single handed raised a surplus fund of one hundred and flfty thousand dollars in order that the college might be able to cope with future financial situations. It is almost unbelievable that the gentle President Hitchcock could accomplish such a tremendous task, besides serving as the active head of the college and its professor of Christian Theology as well.

ZjllCS7331llN'lllHlCGDNKi' 'X DR. ROBERT E. VINSON, D. D., LL. D., L. H. D. PRESIDENT OME time ago, addressing the students of Adelbert College, President Vinson spoke of the nature of higher education in America--its' origin in the cultural influence of the English university, modified later byfthe French tradition of public support, by the German tradition of specialization and regard for expansion of things known, by the development of denominational colleges educating leaders in the newer settlements, and by the forces inherent in American life. And he called. emphatic attention to the opportunities today challenging the social as well as physical sciences. Our own Western Reserve University, since its establishment as a college in 1826, has been a symbol of the growing civilization in this region, sprung from the Great Tradition of the Western World and modified. by the unique forces giving us our identity. An historian of our social life might not be badly fortihed if he pos- sessed the documents and catalogues of the University, and noted the growth: the nature and the year of organization of the hundreds upon hundreds of courses, of the numerous new departments, and of the several under-graduate, graduate, and professional schools and colleges instructing in the wide domains of the arts, sciences, and social sciences. But schools and departments are developed in terms of current needs. The con- stant factor in determining value is the quality of the graduates: their integrity, sanity, wisdom, social-consciousness, and cultural responses. President Thwing, at the close of The Anzerieeen eznei German Univermjf Cl928D, clearly aware of world-history of universities, wrote with conviction yet admonition for the future: Education, using the force and material of learning, will become a greater and greater power for human enlightenment, for the discipline of individual character, and for en- larging and enriching the mind of the race and of the races .... Especially neces- sary is the co-operative effort of every student, of every scholar, of every teacher and of every lover of men unto the attaining of this human and divine consum- mation. Lyon N.
