10 THE 1911 YACKETY YACK Vol. XI came into daily personal contact, but will be widely diffused throughout the world of scholarship and letters and the larger world of affairs. It may safely be said that every man who listened attentively to Dr. Alexander in the lecture room went forth into the world a broader, saner, nobler man. It is true. Dr. Alexander did little in the way of publishing, for nothing was further from his sincere and honest heart than the glamor of the publicist, so much insisted upon in educational circles to-day, but he left behind him a far nobler and more enduring monument m the lofty characters of his students and in the high state of efficiency to which he had brought the Greek depart- ment in this University. Amid all the vicissitudes to which the classical lan- guages, and especially Greek, have been subjected in late years, he stood calm and firm, and came through the storm with ever increasing power. No nobler tribute could be paid him than by citing the fact that under his guidance the University of North Carolina, in the percentage of Greek students, stands among the first of all our universities in which Greek is not a required subject for the Arts Degree. All consideration of self was buried in his never failing love for the Uni- versity, and all ambition was sacrificed to watch tenderly over her and her cherished traditions. And this keen interest in all her affairs only ceased with the day of his death. His fullness of character, his keenness of perception, his moral and intellectual grandeur have brought rich luster to the University, to the State, to the South. Such was the brilliant scholar and knightly gentleman whom we all love, honor, and revere. Since it was first my privilege to know him, I have loved him and looked up to him as one whom we should strive to imitate, and I am glad that I had the honor of knowing him early in my career and learned to know him well. C. W. Bain.
