Smilb, '07, Alumni Secretary EARLY DEVELOPMENT-MARTIN BREWER ANDERSON N This is a day of great accomplishment and still greater romise for the University of Rochest r. Recent recipient of millions of dollars for an expansive building program, backed by correspondiiig millions for endowment, it has become a university in fact, as well as in name. Its Eastman Schobl of Music, recently enlarged, is probably unsurpassed, in equipment and resources at least, by airy institution of its kind in the world. Its richly endowed School of Medicine and Dentistry, in operla- tion since the fall of 1915, is already making a place for itself among the great medical schools bf America. And now it is completing on an unusual campus site of 87 rolling acres, flanking the banks of the Genesee River, a beautifully planned College for Men, which, with the rededication of the present campus to the College for Women, will place the older departments on an equal plane with its great new schools. i Although bearing the name of the city which has harbored it for eighty years, the University is not, and never has been, a city college in any sense ofthe term, but an independently endowed i '- stitution. It was established in 1850, having its inception in a movement among the Baptists of tile state, which led several professors and a number of students of what was then Madison University, at Hamilton, N, Y., to transfer to the more populous community of Rochester. The new institution was established in a humble building previously known as the Uniteli States Hotel. While thus denominational in origin, like so many colleges of that early day, it has long ago become entirely non-sectarian in its organization, administration and control. 1 That the movement attracted more than local attention at the time is indicated by the interesting, though wholly fanciful, version given it by Ralph Waldo Emerson, who related that a landlord in Rochester, possessing a hostelry which he thought would bring in more revenue as a universityi, put in a few books, sent for a coach-load of professors and by the time green peas were ripe had graduated a class of students. l The new institution gave instruction during the first year to seventy-one men, with a faculty of eight professors and instructors, and graduated its first class often men in July, 1351. It was termed The Collegiate Department of the University of Rochester, and that was destined to remain the sole department for many years to come. Its provisional charter, granted to the petitioners by the Board of Regents in 1850, was made absolute on january 10, 1861, during which year it completed its first new building and moved out to its present campus of twenty-four elm-shaded acres, then ai meadow about one mile from the heart of the city. l The University has been singularly fortunate in its executives. Following the early chancellorshi of Ira Harris, came Martin Brewer Anderson, the first president, who served from 1855 to 1889 an was a giant among the educators ofhis day. Thou h handicapped by restricted resources, he won fo the budding institution a wholesome respect in edzucational circles which it has never relinquished His successor, David Jayne Hill, coming from the presidency of Bucknell University, maintained the high standards established by Dr. Anderson but eft in 1896 to achieve intemational prominencel in various positions of state, including the ambassadorship to Germany. After an interregnum of four years, ably filled in turn by Professors Samuel A. Lattimore and! Henry F. Burton as acting-presidents, Rush Rhees was called from a professor's chair at The Newton Theological Institution to assume the presidency, which position he has filled with distinction since IQOO. President Rhees proved to be that rare but happy combination of educational leader and. business executive. A man of far-seeing vision, his coming ushered in not only a new century but a new era for the University of Rochester. For the first fifty years of its existence the University had been operated as a college for men only. In 1900 through the efforts of a roup of public spirited women in Rochester, prominent among whom was the great suffrage leadrer, Susan B. Ant ony, the University was opened to women on the same terms and conditions as men. For the best interests of both men and women separate organizations were subsequently developed, and in 1917. the trustees created within the University a College for Men and a College for Women. ronliuwd an page 1-l' i-EJNTER, o moi , I6
