  • Ambrose Swasey 1846-1937
    NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS VOLUME XXII FIRST MEMOIR BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF AMBROSE SWASEY 1846-1937 BY DAYTON C. MTLLER PRESENTED TO THE ACADEMY AT THE ANNUAL MEETING, 1940 AMBROSE SWASEY 1846-1937 BY DAYTON C. MILLER Ambrose Swasey, engineer, scientist, philanthropist, was born in Exeter, New Hampshire, on December 19, 1846; he died at the old homestead on the farm where he was born on June 15, 1937, aged 90 years and 6 months. A group of pioneers, four hundred in number, including four non-conformist clergymen, came from old England to New England in the spring of 1629. John Swasey, founder of the Swasey family in America, and his two sons, Joseph and John, Jr., presumably were members of this group and they settled in Salem, Massachusetts.1 The Governor of Salem, John Endecott, in this time of religious intolerance, showed great bigotry and harshness and expelled all Baptists, Episcopalians, and Quakers. John Swasey, being of the latter faith, was obliged to leave, about 1650, going to Satauket and later to Southold on Long Island. Joseph Swasey (second generation) the eldest son of John Swasey, remained in Salem and followed the humble oc- cupation of fisherman. Joseph was one of the charter members of the first church organized in Salem, in 1629, this being the first Congregational Church in America. This Joseph Swasey had a son named Joseph (third generation) born in 1653 in Salem. The further line of descent is: Joseph, born in 1685, in Salem; Ebenezer, born in 1727, in Old Newbury, Massachusetts; Ebenezer, born in 1758, in Old Newbury; Nathaniel, born in 1800, in Exeter, New Hampshire.

    Archives 2014.013.0051 ==== Enclosure, presentation pamphlet, Humphreys tribute: [photo portrait] ALEXANDER CROMBIE HUMPHREYS M.E., E.D., Sc.D., LL.D. ==== AS A RESULT of nearly two decades of untiring labor and remarkable achievement the name of Humphreys today stands beside those of Stevens and Morton in the eternal gratitude of the men of Stevens Institute of Technology. Just forty years ago Alexander C. Humphreys was graduated from Stevens. While carrying the course of studies at the College he was superintendent of a gas company in a nearby town and was married and maintaining his home. The great energy, the high character and the marked ability which enabled him to carry these responsibilities led him in the next twenty years to the highest place in the gas industry of this country. From this high station he was unanimously called in 1902 by his old professors and his brother alumni and by many friends of Stevens to take the presidency of the College, and he accepted! Witness today the phenomenal progress of Stevens under President Humphreys: Increased attendance came without seeking and is more than trebled. Teaching methods have been advanced to new and original standards that are at the forefront of educational work, including student self-government and physical training. The college grounds have been extended in the face of trying circumstances and are enlarged by nearly twenty acres; five new buildings have been constructed or acquired excluding the Castle and several other buildings which have been adapted for general use. The same characteristics that carried Dr. Humphreys to the top of his branch of the engineering profession and to the leadership of Stevens have led to his being drafted in other great works of national scope.

    APPENDIX A WSU 2014-19 STRATEGIC PLAN Appendix A: WSU Strategic Plan 2014-15 Strategic Plan 2014-2019 President Elson S. Floyd, Ph.D. Strategic Plan 2014-2019 Introduction The 2014-19 strategic plan builds on the previous five-year plan, recognizing the core values and broad mission of Washington State University. Goals and strategies were developed to achieve significant progress toward WSU’s aspiration of becoming one of the nation’s leading land-grant universities, preeminent in research and discovery, teaching, and engagement. The plan emphasizes the institution’s unique role as an accessible, approachable research institution that provides opportunities to an especially broad array of students while serving Washington state’s broad portfolio of social and economic needs. While providing exceptional leadership in traditional land-grant disciplines, Washington State University adds value as an integrative partner for problem solving due to its innovative focus on applications and its breadth of program excellence. The plan explicitly recognizes the dramatic changes in public funding that have occurred over the duration of the previous strategic plan, along with the need for greater institutional nimbleness, openness, and entrepreneurial activity that diversifies the University’s funding portfolio. In addition, the plan reaffirms WSU’s land-grant mission by focusing greater attention system-wide on increasing access to educational opportunity, responding to the needs of Washington state through research, instruction, and outreach, and contributing to economic development and public policy. While the new plan retains the four key themes of the previous plan, its two central foci include offering a truly transformative educational experience to undergraduate and graduate students and accelerating the development of a preeminent research portfolio.
