The Professor and the President
October 12, 1911 issue

add to cart   close window

With the opening of the academic year the question of the university presidency and the university professorship, what they are and what they ought to be, again comes to the fore. In accordance with a growing custom, the installation of a new president for the University of Vermont, Burlington, Vermont, has been made the occasion for gathering educational magnates from far and wide, and has been invested with as much impressiveness as possible. The new head of the institution comes out of the West, and there is in the utterances with which he inaugurates his career in the staid little old State of Vermont a certain naivete and also a certain exuberance to which the people of that longitude are not altogether accustomed.
