Frank Louis Sevenoak . RANK LOUIS SEVENOAK, son of Francis Giles and Evelina Dloodgood' CDe Wittj ge 53,135 -1 Sevenoak, was born in Sterling, N. Y., October 8, 1858. He received his early educa- ix r tion at the Monticello Academy. 6 5 Not physically strong, it was thought best to continue his education at one 61550.-' I of the smaller colleges, and accordingly he entered Union College, Schenectady, N. Y., in September, 1875. He completed the Sophomore year there with credit, and finding his health much improved entered the Junior year at Princeton University and graduated from that university in 1879. In the fall of that year he matriculated at the College of Physicians and Surgeons CMedica1 Department of Columbia Universityj, New York, and graduated in May, 1883, taking one of the Harsen prizes for pronciency. He came to Stevens School as instructor in 1884 and in 1888 was made Assistant Principal. In 1898 he became head of the Educational Department of the Macmillan Company, which gave him the opportunity of becoming personally acquainted with many prominent English and American authors. In 1902 he was made Assistant Professor of English and Logic in the Institute, and in 1903 resigned from the Macmillan Company to give his entire time to the Institute work. Some of the most successful books of the Macmillans were brought out while he was with the company. In June, 1906, he was made Professor of English and Logic and now has full charge of that de- partment. He is a member of the Princeton Club of New York, and of the Psi Upsilon fraternity. In December, 1886, he married Emily Van Zandt, of New York. Having a broad sympathy for the failings of young men, he is one of the favorite professors of the students.
