RICHMOND I _ REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT To THE MEMBERS OF THE CORPORATION: It is my pleasure and duty at this time to submit to you a report on the affairs of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. It carries an optimistic note, for the material and spiritual situation within the Institution has never been more healthy; a decided upturn in business promises well for increased employment of our graduates and improved income from our endowment; and the international skies are clearing. While serious problems still confront our country, I believe that there are more signs of courage and enthusiasm than have been evident for some years.

  • FY11 Report to the President
    MIT Alumni Association ~ FY11 Report to the President MIT’s sesquicentennial afforded new opportunities for the MIT Alumni Association to connect alumni to the Institute and to one another. We took on the challenge of hosting 150 events during the 150 days of celebration. We met that goal and then some. And new connections were made— 29 of these events were in areas without an established group. Tech Reunions 2011 in June broke attendance records as enthusiastic alumni and guests came to campus for traditional celebrations plus the spectacular MIT150 finale—Toast to Tech. FY11 Highlights: • In honor of the MIT 150th anniversary, volunteers and the Alumni Association hosted 164 sesquicentennial events on five continents, including 55 Toast to IAP gatherings, 47 Charter Day events, and 14 Days of Service. • Nearly 8,000 people gathered in Killian Court for the MIT150 finale, Toast to Tech, which was cohosted by the Association and the office of Institute Events. • FY11 MIT Annual Fund: Giving increased by 19 percent to $52.4M. Senior Gift participation hit a new record of 76 percent. The Parents Fund beat previous records with gifts totaling more than $1.5 million. • Compared to our IvyPlus peers, the MIT Annual Fund ranked third in undergraduate partici- pation at 36 percent—behind Princeton and Dartmouth in 2010, the most recent available data. • The William Barton Rogers Society achieved a 79 percent renewal rate among all donors from FY10 to FY11. • Members of the 1861 Circle, those who make a gift five or more years in a row, rose 5.2 per- cent to 16,666.

In our time as a colony, we have grown into an organization rooted upon the three pillars of Theta Tau, and been beneficiaries of the nation-wide community striving towards this selfsame goal. As a chapter, we plan to work to build our brotherhood, serve our community, and work toward success in our profession in the same way we have as a colony. Our Colony has had the privilege to be helped in our journey by many outstanding members of the national brotherhood. Whether it was the opportunity to network with brothers from chapters all across the nation at the national convention in Cincinnati, or work with the Psi Delta Chapter to plan a joint Alumni Networking Event at home in Boston, we have been lucky to have role models and advisors to shape us into a group ready for status as a chapter of Theta Tau. As we move forward, I know the support network we have built will be ready and willing to help us forge onward as an organization.

  • Dr. Samuel Cabot Iii
    DR. SAMUEL CABOT III You’ve heard what has been said about the richie-rich “Boston Brahmins,” that the “Lowells talk only to the Cabots, / And the Cabots talk only to God.” Well, here we find Dr. Samuel Cabot III, a Cabot who should be talking only to God — but what he is doing here instead is, he is exchanging bird notes with Henry Thoreau. THE LOWELL FAMILY THE CABOT FAMILY HDT WHAT? INDEX DR. SAMUEL CABOT III DR. SAMUEL CABOT III 1815 September 20, Wednesday: Representatives of Austria, France, Great Britain, Prussia, and Russia met in Paris to work out a new peace treaty. The allied powers agreed to compel France to return all works of art taken from them during the florut of Napoléon Bonaparte. The allies required that France give up 2/3ds of the territory won between 1790 and 1792, plus Savoy, that it pay 600,000,000 francs in reparations and 200,000,000 francs for the construction of forts along its border to protect its neighbors, and that it pay for 150,000 allied soldiers to man various fortresses throughout France for 7 years. Samuel Cabot III was born in Boston to Samuel Cabot, Jr. and Elizabeth Perkins, daughter of the “merchant king” Colonel Thomas Perkins. His father and his grandfather, Thomas Handasyd Perkins, were 2 of the wealthiest men in 19th-Century Boston. His brothers would include James Elliot Cabot and Edward Clarke Cabot. He would be fitted for college at the Boston Latin School. THE CABOT FAMILY HDT WHAT? INDEX DR. SAMUEL CABOT III DR.

Mr. Ellison divides his history of British gliding into four segments: 1849-1908; 1908-1920; 1920-1929; and 1929-present (1970) British Gliding History The history of motorless flight in Britain can be divided into four periods. The first period up to 1908 started way back in 1849 when Sir George Cayley persuaded a boy to fly in one of his small gliders. Later, in 1853, Sir George's coachman was launched across a small valley at Brompton, near Scarborough. This experiment terminated abruptly when the craft reached the other side of the valley, and the frightened coachman stepped from the wreckage and addressed his employer with the now famous words "Sir George, I wish to hand in my notice". Cayley’s Glider Sir George Cayley Further would-be aviators carried out many other Percy Pilcher experiments over the years that followed, including Percy Pilcher's many glides at various places up and down the country until his death in 1899. The first period came to an end when S.

  • National ACS Leaders from the Northeastern Section Reprinted from the June 1973 NUCLEUS, by Edward R
    National ACS Leaders from the Northeastern Section Reprinted from the June 1973 NUCLEUS, by Edward R. Atkinson, the more recent period covered by the editor Our account is limited to those chemists and chemical engineers who, as members of the Section, filled important ACS offices at the national level. If time and space permitted we would enjoy telling about the contributions of many other members who have served on the many committees of the ACS Council or who have performed many special tasks for the Society. In considering section members who have been elected presidents of the ACS we want to cheat a little and start with Thomas Sterry Hunt who served the infant Society for two separate terms (1879 and 1888) in the days before there was a Northeastern Section. Hunt was born in Norwich, Connecticut in 1826, was a student of the elder Silliman at Yale, and was a chemist and mineralogist with the Geological Survey of Canada until 1872. During that time he was a founder of Laval University and taught chemistry there and at McGill University. He succeeded William Barton Rogers (the founder of M.I.T.) as professor of geology at the Institute and later resigned the position to enter consulting work. He was not only president of the ACS but also of the AAAS (1871) and was a Fellow of the Royal Society. Organic chemists remember Hunt as the first American chemist to define their science as the chemistry of compounds of carbon, and as the originator of a Type Theory (1854) that in some respects anticipated that of Williamson and Gerhardt.
