Abraham, Executive Director Theta Tau Professional Engineering Fraternity 1011 San Jacinto, Suite 205 Austin, TX 78701 Dear Brothers, I am honored to represent the Boston University Colony of Theta Tau in presenting our petition for chapter status. Over the past year, our colony has developed as an organization that truly respects and embodies the three pillars of Theta Tau: Service, Profession, and Brotherhood. Our colony has had the privilege of interacting with the national brotherhood on several occasions. This past summer, brothers from our colony represented Boston University at Theta Tau’s Leadership Academy. Their most important takeaway from this experience was the powerful sense of brotherhood that Theta Tau fosters and practices on a national level. As a colony, we seek to emulate that connection both between brothers, and with alumni in our immediate area. At our first annual Boston Local Alumni Networking Panel, we were lucky enough to host supportive alumni living in Boston. These brothers have since remained in contact with us as a support network to aid our colony in growing and succeeding as part of Theta Tau. As a member of our colony’s founding class I have seen firsthand the success our colony has achieved this past year.

    Alice Freeman Palmer: The Evolution of a New Woman Ruth Bordin http://www.press.umich.edu/13480/alice_freeman_palmer The University of Michigan Press, 1993 Alice Freeman Palmer The Evolution of a New Woman Ruth Bordin Frontispiece photo of Alice Freeman Palmer courtesy of Wellesley College Archives. For the Wednesday lunchers, who each in her way was a New Woman Preface The research for this biography of Alice Freeman Palmer began thirty-five years ago as I put together an exhibit for the Bentley Historical Library honoring the 1957 centennial of the inauguration of the teaching of history at the University of Michigan. Two women who trained in the pioneer history seminar of Charles Kendall Adams caught my attention, Alice Freeman and Lucy Salmon. I was startled to find women pursuing graduate training in history at that early date. I was also caught by the fact that both became distinguished educators with long careers. My interest in Palmer was rekindled thirty years later in the spring of 1987 by a symposium on "Changes in the Lives of Educated Women," sponsored by the Center for the Continuing Education for Women at the University of Michigan. At the symposium I particularized the wider picture of women and higher education in a brief paper on women's experience at the University of Michigan from 1870 to 1987. Palmer's wider influence on women's higher education attracted my attention once more. Alice Freeman Palmer's career was distinguished and certainly not forgotten by scholars. She was a pioneer alumna of the first great American university to admit women; president of Wellesley College and a key figure on its board of trustees during two of its most crucial decades; the first dean at the University of Chicago; and leader, arbiter, and spokeswoman for women's place in higher education during much of her adult life.

As Sir Thomas More presented to the world Utopia, the model state, so we, using that as our guide, have un- dertaken to present Wellesley, the model institute for women. We pray you, gentle reader, as you turn the pages, to yield yourself to the broadening influ- ence of our own peculiar brand of impersonal impartiality. Soar to our exalted attitude of mind — eschew the ancient vulgarity which loves to jest at personal foibles ; for we have learned in our recently enlightened sphere that such is too utterlv utter! €'liaptcr <Onc Cije ^m auti Cxpeiienceti of tl)r iLanti goavtl of i'vu5tcc6 SAMUEL B.
