REV. JOHN A. W. HAAS, D.D., LL.D. President; Professor of Religion and Philosophy Born at Philadelphia, Pa., August 31, 1862. Prepared at Parochial School, Zion’s Church and Protestant Episcopal Academy. A.B., University of Pennsylvania, 1884. Mt. Airy I heo- logical Seminary, ordained 1887. Phi Beta Kappa. University of Leipsic, 1887-88. D.D., Thiel College, 1902. Fourth President of Muhlenberg, 1904. LL.D., University of Pennsyl- vania, 1914. Muhlenberg is proud of the new development on the campus as it is manifested in the erection of the new buildings, but her exultation cannot exceed her pride in the beloved president, whose zeal was in large measure responsible for Muhlenberg’s growth. Indeed, we feel that to Doctor Haas’s efforts toward the upbuilding of Muhlenberg we owe in large part the recent honor which the college has received this year, namely, our admission to the Approved List of American Universities. By this Muhlenberg graduates enter European universities without additional preparation in America. Our president is a prominent philosopher and author, whose fame has won him a place in the Author’s Club of London. Doctor Haas is also an ardent Christian, a leader of the Lutheran Church. We count ourselves fortunate in having a president in whom this high scholarship and Christian faith are combined. If the picture we have painted of Doctor Haas gives the impression of cold, stone-like intellectuality, it is not fulfilling its purpose. Doctor Haas has the affections of the students. His delightful smile and his animated conversation are of the right sort to please the boys. Moreover, he has their interests at heart. Any one who hears the doctor’s stirring addresses in chapel can see the interest he has in the welfare not only of Muhlenberg students but in the welfare of our nation at large. We therefore conclude with the good old French cheer, Five le doctor! Page Nineteen
