P. Calvin Mensch, M.D., PuP. DR. MENSCH was born at Hilltown, Bucks County, June 13, 1864. His education began at Pennsburg in the public schools and continued through Pcrkiomcn Seminary and Ursinus College, from which he was graduated in June, 1887. In 1889 he received the degree of Doctor of Medicine from Bellevue Hospital Medical College and in 1891 the degree of Doctor of Philosophy from Grant University. After teaching at New Windsor College, Md., and serving as Dean of Claremont College in North Carolina, Dr. Mensch was called by Ursinus College to become the head of the newly created Department of Biology. In this position he served successfully until his untimely death, July 30, 1901, but 37 years of age. In both classroom and laboratory Dr. Mensch was very successful. He developed a meagre and beginning department into one of the best in the state, recognized by all the leading medical colleges in Pennsylvania. Successful as were his efforts as a teacher. Dr. Mensch’s labors did not end here. He was prominent as a man of science and is quoted as authority upon subjects of his special study and investigation. He was a member of the American Morphological Society, the Society of American Naturalists, and the Philadelphia Academy of Natural Sciences. His most important publication was a monograph on marine annelids entitled Stolonization of Auto-lytics Varians. To Dr. P. Calvin Mensch, '87, may be attributed the inspiration and development of the many under-graduates of his time who have since made the name of Ursinus famous by their accomplishments in modern science.
