  • The "Literati" at Iowa in the Twenties
    The "L itera ti" at Iowa in the Twenties CHARLTON LAIRD It was a no-win question, as I well knew. The “I” was a beginning graduate student at The University of Iowa in the autumn of 1925 who had come to be examined on a trial bibliography for a pro­ posed thesis and to endure whatever else the instructor in “Bibliog­ raphy and Method” might propose by way of purgatorial initiation. The questioner was Professor Thomas A. Knott, with varying de­ grees of affection known as “Tommy,” who was soon to become managing editor of the New International Dictionary, second edi­ tion, although none of us knew this as yet, not even Tommy. He was deeply devoted to scholarship, had a thunderous voice, and a prognathous jaw. I could imagine a deity, absorbed in matters of greater moment, absentmindedly tossing into the mixture that was to become Tommy Knott enough mandible for two jaw-jutting hu­ mans. “You have made the acquaintance of Mr. Cross’s little book?” he asked. “Mr. Cross’s little book” was Tom Peete Cross, Bibliographical Guide to English Studies, like Tommy himself a product of the Uni­ versity of Chicago. To slight it was lèse majesté. But what could I say? If I implied that I had gone over Cross with such care as I could muster—which I had—my scraps of learning would have been inundated in Tommy’s all-submerging knowledge. If I said I had been too busy to give the masterpiece the attention it deserved, and would eventually get, something would have hap­ pened, although I could not envisage what.

  • THE ANNALS of IOWA 70 (Winter 2011)
    The Annals of Volume 70, Number 1 Iowa Winter 2011 A QUARTERLY JOURNAL OF HISTORY In This Issue MICHAEL S. HEVEL, a doctoral candidate in the higher education program at the University of Iowa, describes the role of literary societies at Cornell College, the State University of Iowa, and the Iowa State Normal School in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. He argues that those societies provided opportunities for students to display publicly, in a variety of changing formats over the years, their higher learning. Through their programs, society members demonstrated their educational gains, improved their speaking abilities, and practiced the cultural arts. In addition, society members were instrumental in creating features of campus life that endure to the present. BREANNE ROBERTSON analyzes Lowell Houser’s entry in the compe- tition to create a mural for the Ames Post Office in 1935. She argues that his choice of Mayan subject matter, drawing on a contemporary fascination with Mexican culture in both subject and style, distinguished his work among a strong pool of applicants in the competition, and the execution of his mural sketch, which adhered to traditional notions of history painting, demonstrated a technical and thematic expertise that fulfilled the lofty aims of the selection committee and ultimately won for him the competition. Front Cover Members of the Orio Literary Society at Iowa State Normal School staged a dramatic production of Louis’ Last Moments with His Family in 1897. For more on literary societies at Cornell College, the State University of Iowa, and the Iowa State Normal School, see Michael Hevel’s article in this issue.

New kickoff events give first- year students a running start n Aug. 19, the University of Iowa welcomed its Class Oof 2015 with a literal bang, as fireworks lit the sky above Kinnick Stadium. It was the opening of On Iowa!, ~ First-year students participated in an On Iowa! kickoff event at Kinnick Stadium, posing for a class a program designed to welcome new students, introduce portrait in a massive block I formation. campus culture, and emphasize the transition to college life. The Kinnick event — which also included large-scale icebreakers on the field, lessons on the Iowa fight song and other traditions, and inspiration from wrestling legend Dan Gable — launched a pre-semester weekend that closed with the annual Convocation ceremony on the Pentacrest and a block party hosted by UI President Sally Mason. The program was more than a year in the making, driven by research showing that in-depth orientations and community-building initiatives correlate with improved retention and other student outcomes. It’s part of the university’s renewed focus on undergraduate student success. The new undergraduate class — at 4,565 students, it is the university’s largest and most diverse — began their UI experience steeped in Hawkeye culture, arguably better poised to make the leap to college than any class before them.
