Willis attended Thorey's classes and covered her regularly scheduled shift at the circulation desk at the Bruce T. Halle Library. Thorey met with administrators to discuss lobbying, educational funding and the University's infrastructure. "I found out that EMU has some of the lowest utility costs among (state) uni­ versities in Michigan," she said. Saying she was "overloaded by lunchtime," Thorey was content to return to the classroom herself the next day.

    CHAPTER TWELVE MAC VICAR, PUTNAM, WILLITS 1880-1885 Malcolm Mac Vicar, 7880- 7887 When Principal Estabrook resigned in May of 1880, the State Board felt that special conditions made the selection of a successor one of exceptional importance. "The school was to a certain extent in a transition state," they said, "and it needed most of all one who could bring to its admini­ stration large experience, great executive ability, high scholarshir, and honest sympathy with the progressive spirit of the institution." They chose Malcolm Mac Vicar, principal of the Normal School at Potsdam, New York,2 who took over the reins on November 12. Malcolm Mac Vicar was unique among the heads of Normal; he was the only one to be foreign-born. He came with his family at the age of six from Argylshire, Scotland, to a farm near Chatham, Ontario, Canada. He entered Knox College, in Toronto, to study for the Presbyterian ministery but within a short time was ordained in the Baptist ministry. He transferred to the University of Rochester, New York, where he earned the baccalaureate and master's degrees. At the time that Normal offered him its headship he had gained considerable administrative experience. As principal of the Brock­ port Collegiate Institute (1863-1867) in Brockport, New York, he became the first principal of the Brockport State Normal School when the Collegiate Institute was transformed (1867). Earlier, he had attracted the attention of the Regents of the University of the State of New York and at their invitation had read a paper at their convocation of 1865 which proved to be a first step towards the 121 122 A History of Eastern adoption of "Regents' Examinations" in the academies.

Warner and Ida C. Brown Ann Arbor 1963 Composition and Lithoprinted by BRAUN -BRUM FIELD, Inc. Ann Arbor, Michigan Oil.. Ill* H INTRODUCTION The Michigan Historical Collections are a special library of The University of Michigan, con- taining the archives of the University and papers of individuals and organizations throughout Michi- gan. In the beginning there were two different projects. One, begun by Professor Lewis G. Vander Velde in 1934, was a program of collecting manuscript and printed materials relating to Michigan history, primarily for the use of graduate students in his seminar. The other program concerned the collecting and preservation of records of the University. To accomplish this purpose, President Alexander G. Ruthven appointed The Committee on University Archives, of which Professor Vander Velde was the secretary. Firmly convinced that a comprehen- sive collection of manuscripts dealing with the history of the University and the State would be use- ful for students and scholars, he began a vigorous campaign of letter writing and personal visits. Housed for a time in a room in the Clements Library, in 1938, needing more space, the papers were moved into the newly opened Rackham Building. In the same year the Regents established the Michigan Historical Collections and appointed Professor Vander Velde the Director.

Biographical sketches and portraits of the leaders in business, politics and the professions; together with an historical and descriptive sketch of the state http://www.loc.gov/resource/lhbum.19129 Library of Congress It is a generally accepted proposition that the growth and development of any community along right lines depend more upon the character of its population that upon any other causes; and to a correct understanding of the forces which have contributed to the upbuilding of this commonwealth some knowledge of the men who have been instrumental in making Minnesota what it is, is necessary. The population of the state is increasing at a rapid rate and many thousands from other states and countries become residents every year, who are unfamiliar with its history and unacquainted with the men who have made that history. The purpose of this volume is to furnish a convenient and trustworthy source from which accurate knowledge of the history of the state may be obtained.

Here rests Monroe’s pioneers, distinguished citizens, politicians and veterans of every U.S. military conflict from the Revolutionary War to Vietnam. Sponsor: Genealogical Society of Monroe County, MI, Inc. Turn of the century photo of Woodland Custer Family Plot The Woodland Cemetery Tour compiled by David Ingall, with special appreciation to Buck and Pat Vincent as well as Jane Sommer for sharing all their years of research on Woodland. Woodland Cemetery History Originating in the early 1800’s, Woodland Cemetery is one of Michigan’s oldest and historical public cemeteries. Here rests Monroe’s pioneers, distinguished citizens, political/public officials and veterans of every U.S. military conflict from the Revolutionary War to Vietnam. Included are three U.S. Generals, five U.S. Colonels, one Territorial Delegate to Congress, one U.S. Senator, four U.S. Representatives, numerous mayors, Michigan State Senators and Representatives, one Michigan Secretary of State, two Chief Justices of the Michigan Supreme Court, and Custer family members. The cemetery occupies 11 acres of land in the city of Monroe, Michigan. It has over 7,000 burials with hundreds of marble, limestone, bronze and granite markers. The cemetery is thought to have an early “Potter’s Field” and has the designation of being Monroe’s first cemetery to accept African Americans. It also may have been part of the American forces retreat routes during the Battle of the River Raisin on January 22, 1813. In 1988 it was listed on the State Register of Historic Sites.

Not that these volumes from a history in themselves, but rather, that they are collections of sketches, statements, papers and documents, written by the actual participants in the scenes described, and which must prove of inestimable value to him who shall hereafter write The History of Michigan .
