Faculty and dministration Facts The Colgate Professor under the Colgate Plan and infused with the Colgate Spirit is more than a teacher to the Colgate man. From the day that the raw Frosh arrives at Lake Nloraine and plays volley ball with the Philosophy department or swims with the man who will lecture to him in Chem or dicussess the place of fraternities with an instructor in Eco- nomics, he learns that, unlike the pedagogues who too often maintained that academic aloofness during his prep or high school days, the Colgate prof is an all-round good fellow. He learns that whenever he wants to shed some light on those seemingly unsolvable problems, no matter what they pertain to, he can invariably think of some man on the Colgate faculty who will be more than willing to bull the matter out with him. It may be the preceptor, whom every freshman must have under the Colgate Plan, or it may 'be the' sophomore advisor, his tutor or the man whom he has met and walked with on the Willow Path or met and talked with in a Seminar Room in the Library. Finally, when he graduates, the Colgate student stops and thinks with almost as much remorse about the connections he is severing with some professor as he does about those he is severing in his fraternity house or dormitory. Consequently, for at least a few years after graduation, the typical Colgate man retains the professorial contacts of his undergraduate days. No father could ask his son to spend his college days under a better influence and emerge with such wholesome friend- ships. , ' V This spring Colgate loses two of its most dignified personages, who for the past two decades in one case and since before the turn of the century in the other, have served faithfully' so that Colgate youth might benefit by their erudite counsel. They are Dr. Frank Carman Ewart, professor of Romanic Languages, and a member of the faculty since 1899, and Dr. Charles Worthen Spencer, Librarian since 1921. Dr. Ewart, of the alert step and twinkling eye, may retire from his classrooms and lecture halls, but he will never retire from the hearts and minds of those of us who trudged into his French classes and were carried across the seas to a land, the simple beauty of which he loved to relate. Symbolizing the spirit and tradition that is Colgate's, the be- loved teacher has inspired his pupils with the desire for knowledge and an appreciation for the charm and beauty that lies in foreign lands. Colgate may wait many years before it witnesses a truer character than that diffused by Dr. Ewart during his forty year stay. To those who have watched our library grow during the past eighteen years, Doc Spencer will eternally remain as the man, more than any other single individual, responsible for bringing culture to the Colgate campus. For those of us who wandered in his wake among the stacks during Freshman Orientation Week and listened to his delightful witticisms and wise epigrams, he will always live as a true scholar, whose very life seemed to revolve around his books and the knowledge that they imparted. A true gentleman of the old school, this distinguished, gray-haired professor with his typical moustache and goatee may resign from the college faculty, but he will never cease to be an essential part of the ideals that are Colgate's. Students will miss his friendly smile when they enter the library, but some- how, the walls will seem to whisper his name, the rooms to be filled with his very spirit. I7
