RALPH ALBERT V- N METER

“

IN DEDICATION President Van Meter has been a living land- mark upon this campus since 1917. Always we have looked up to him. Paraphrasing Feste, If that this simple symbol will serve, so; if it will not, what remedy? There have been, of course, temporary ab- sences, in line of duty. For four years he was in our Extension Service and hence variously about the state. Still, it was Trustee Bowker who said, The state is our classroom. Then Mr. Van Meter was in Ithaca for a year or so assembling residence credits for his doctorate in 1935. And whenever, summer or winter, the Appalachian Club has announced a rugged trek, he has been off for wind-swept summits in northern New England. For years the Van Meter family have gone out onto Mt. Toby on Thanksgiving Day. The President ' s field of interest is pomology. Both of his daughters, however, majored in our English Department, and when their father re- linquished the deanship of the School of Horti- culture in 1946 to assume the exacting responsi- bilities of the presidency, he was qualified for sympathetic and understanding leadership in terms of the entire campus. No president after eight years of administration has had so few critics, so many friends. F. P. R.
