Book excerpt: Excerpt from Celebration of the Centennial Anniversary of the University of the State The University of the State of New York was established by an act of the Legislature, passed May 1, 1781. By this act, and subsequent amendatory acts, the supervision of the institutions of secondary and superior education in the State was intrusted to the Regents of the University. They were thus constituted a State board of education which, in priority of establishment, antedates all others in the United States. The century which has since elapsed has witnessed the inception, organization and development of the present noble system of education in the State. In this work the part of the Board of Regents has been so conspicuous and honora ble that it has been deemed appropriate to celebrate, in some suitable manner, the centennial anniversary of its establishment. It was accordingly arranged that special commemorative services Should be held in connection with the usual University Convocation of 1884. The following pages comprise the proceedings of this centennial celebration, together with the papers and discussions of the Twenty Second Convocation. The fame of the orators, the excellence of the special historical discourses, the unparalleled dignity and import ance of the educational discussions combined to render the occa sion a worthy and fitting memorial of a century of disinterested service.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Quarto-Centennial Celebration: University of Colorado, November 13, 14 and 15, 1902, Boulder, Colo Prominent, if not foremost, among the legal reforms Of the century, which preceded the foundation Of this University, was the simplification of legal procedure. The archaic condition Of the law of procedure is illus trated by the fact that trial by battle was not formally abolished in Eng land until 1819, and it is only in comparatively recent times that the relation of procedure to substantive law has been clearly and definitely understood. The great leader in this reform in England was Mr. Bentham, in the early part of the century, and it was not until many years after his death that the reforms which he advocated were accepted and adopted both in England and America. The reform code pleading was adopted in New York in 1849, and nearly all the States have followed. Lawyers trained in the common lawx pleading naturally looked upon this innovation with suspicion and dis trust. But no State which has adopted this reform procedure has returned to the ancient common law pleading, and no State which has abolished any of the ancient exclusionary rules of evidence has restored them. We would be as much surprised now to hear of such a suggestion as we would of the return to trial by ordeal or wager Of battle. During the quarter century which has passed, the quarter centennial whereof you are now celebrating, this movement for the simplification of procedure has gone progressively forward. Investigations in historical jurisprudence have demonstrated that extreme technicality in procedure, such as we had until a comparatively recent period in our own law, and such as we find in the Twelve Tables Of the Roman Law, is the Sign of an undeveloped system of law, in which legal rights are subordinate to the procedure to enforce them, in which substance is secondary to form. Thus Sir Henry Maine says that technicality is a disease, not of the old age, but of the infancy of legal systems, and he adds.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Centennial Anniversary of the Birth of Ezra Cornell: Addresses at the Celebration Held at Cornell University, April 26, 1907 As his ideas developed under constant conference with Mr. White, the public became more and more excited, and the introduction of the bill for a charter was the signal for war. The small sectarian colleges were up in arms and sent delegates to Albany; they also stirred up the press throughout the State. The cries of Monopoly, A Grab, A Swindle, were all played upon, and it was charged that Cornell was only seeking to erect a monu ment to himself by planning to rob the State. He had once to sit and hear a lawyer, employed to address the Committee against the bill, intimate that he was a swindler. He whispered to Mr. White, If I could think of any other way in which half a million dollars would do as much good to the State I should give the legislators no more trouble. Here we have a revelation of the man and his aims. Because it was the good of his State that he had solely in view, he could sit thus patiently under abuse and hear his aims 'misrepresented. Innocence always has a quiet breast, and the vile charges passed by him as idle wind. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Laurentian, Vol. 19: July 1906; Semi-Centennial Anniversary of the Founding of St. Lawrence University, 1856-1906 The semi-centennial anniversary of the founding of St. Lawrence University! To some who were present - alumni with gray heads but youthful hearts, themselves near the celebration of their semi-centennial - this scarcely seemed possible. They remember so well the little college of the past, with its faculty of six or seven teachers, and classes about as large, when both departments rattled like dried peas in the shell of a single building which also served as a dormitory. They can only think of the college as young, struggling, almost starving on a barren hill in a region none too friendly in those days - the college, perhaps, of the seventies, when true college spirit was just beginning and college work was done without college equipment. And they find the building they knew almost hidden behind the grove which was then a thicket of bare poles, and new buildings to left and right, the newest of all stretching far beyond the trees, and more to come. They find, too, a chapel larger than that in which they sat uncrowded, yet quite too small for the noisy throng of to-day. That they find more loyalty than they knew no one Will say; loyalty such as theirs, in and out of the college, has made St. Law rence what it is.

This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Quarter-Centennial Celebration of the University of Chicago: June 2 to 6, 1916 To afford a conception of the complete success of the Quarter Centennial Celebration the record of it should have been written by some joyous spectator who in subsequent days of tranquillity could fondly dwell on his enthusiasms. The present account is doomed to aridity because it has been compiled by the executive secretary, who during the exercises sat at his desk with two tele phones and a staff of assistants. Some of these assistants faith fully arranged to report stenographically all of the meetings so that the memorial volume early provided for by the committee might be complete; but during the celebration the plan to print a book was abandoned and these arrangements were canceled. Many months later, however, the secretary of the Executive Committee was directed to issue the present volume. The early intent was to print all important papers - especially those of the departmental conferences - and all addresses. A few of the papers have been printed in scholarly journals, but most of them have been unavail able. Any selection possible at present would have been incom plete and unrepresentative. The other addresses likewise have been sought in vain, for the speakers have been unable to remember their words or in war time they have been too busy even to sum marize their thoughts. Especially to be regretted is the loss of Mr. Rockefeller's after-dinner speech - the notable conclusion of the entire celebration. In this volume, therefore, it has been decided to print only the available addresses delivered before gen eral meetings. The accounts of the proceedings follow closely the official reports of the several committees. The description of the Masque was written by Miss Elizabeth Wallace. Miss Vera Lund and Mr. Philip Rounsevelle contributed photographs. Other pictures have been selected by the compiler from the thousands of little negatives on the film of the motion picture.

This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Exercises of the Semi-Centennial Anniversary of Tualatin Academy and Pacific University, Held at Forest Grove, Oregon, July 9, 1898 The generosity and kindliness of the people was markedly shown in the bountiful collation that was served under the oaks back of Memorial Hall. Long tables were stretched out in the shade. And a dinner, seasoned for any palate, was served to all who came. Of the people who attended the celebration, none went hungry. At the close of the dinner hour, about 7 o'clock, a New England arbutus, brought from Plymouth Rock on the Council train from Boston, was planted by Miss Whitcomb, of Worcester, Mass, at the foot of the old bee tree, a rugged oak a dozen rods south of Marsh Memorial Hall, the tree having been preserved for yearsbecause of the special request of Mrs. Tabitha Brown, an early benefactor of the college. A score of addresses were made during the after noon and evening, most of then; extemporaneous, though a few were prepared with much care. All were listened to with close attention. A college song, com posed by a student of the institution, and other songs by a college choir, varied the programme agreeably.
