t rfl1eS'Ca,t'lCl:'Ra1J' ' 2 Dedication G. A. DE GRAAF PROFESSOR G. A. DE GRAAF was born in Helder, Holland, April 15, 1876. He was educated in his mother country, graduating from the Polytechnic Uni- versity in 1902 with the degree of E.E. He followed chemistry in his post- graduate work and was awarded the degree of Ch.E. a few years later. As a chemical engineer, Dr. De Graaf came to this country and entered the employ of the Public Service Corporation of Newark where he soon was ad- vanced to the position of Chief Chemist. For a great many years Dr. De Graaf taught the subjects of qualitative and quantitative analysis at the New Jersey College of Pharmacy and it was not until 1927 that the pressure of his business became so great that he Was forced to resign from the faculty. In Dr. De Graaf's death the world of chemistry has lost a brilliant student and our college has lost a staunch supporter and true friend. He would never give anything but his very best to the College and when he was forced to give up teaching he still continued to help in every way possible the college he loved so well. The inspiration of his life of service has been deeply inculcated in the hearts of all of us and the Class of 1928, together with all who were privileged to associate wich him, will honor and cherish his memory. x 9 I Page 181
