Having proudly carried the “Outstanding Alumni Association Award” back from the Alpha Delta Phi international conven- tion in Rochester last summer, I couldn’t agree more. At the dawn of the millennium, our fraternity remains one of America’s finest institutions for young men. As Brother Dyson reminded us in October, being a member of Alpha Delta Phi at Cornell is a unique experience because the lessons we learn here will stay with us for the rest of our lives. It has been a pleasure to watch my fellow brethren grow from being pledges with peach fuzz into some of the Cornell community’s most respected Greek leaders. It is my hope that the members of the active brotherhood will continue to dedicate themselves to the house as alumni, for it is from our strong alumni base that we draw our strength. With continued support from alumni, both young and old, the future promises to be a bright one for Alpha Delta Phi. XAIPE, Drew Butler ’02 President JANUARY 2001 PAGE THREE Alpha Delts Log Long Hours For Philanthropy I am happy to say that philanthropy is alive and well at Alpha Delta Phi. Since the end of last semester, individuals within the house have compiled over 200 hours of community service, both in their own communities as well as here in Ithaca. We have worked extensively with On-Site Volunteer Services, a student-run, non- profit organization that coordinates the philanthropic efforts of students at Cornell and Ithaca College with the Downtown Ithaca Partnership, as well as with other Greek-letter organizations. Our activities have included construction work, partici- pation in charity events and fundraisers, and work in local soup kitchens.

Johnson ’43 and Robert “Bruce” Hart ’84) Tom Reed, president of the house in 1955, provides the third installment of our “Brothers in Arms” series. His experiences as a junior officer during the height of the “cold war” with the (then) Soviet Union dramatically illustrates the level of responsibility often placed on the shoulders of young men (and now women) as a result of a tour of duty in the armed forces. Although clearly demonstrated at an exceptional level in Tom’s case, I think many of us who have served share his oft-expressed feeling that our time in the military caused a maturing process seldom equaled by other initial post-graduate experiences. Less than 20 years after his graduation from Cornell, Tom Reed was appointed Secretary of the Air Force by President Gerald Ford. In the 1980s, he served in the White House as special assistant to President Ronald Reagan for national security policy.

Petersen Department of Ecology & Evolutionary Biology, University of Tennessee Knoxville, TN 37919-1100 Correspondence to: [email protected] Abstract—The Morrill Act of 1862 afforded the US states the opportunity to found state colleges with agriculture as part of their mission—the so-called “land-grant colleges.” The Hatch Act of 1887 gave the same opportunity for agricultural experiment stations as functions of the land-grant colleges, and the “third Morrill Act” (the Smith-Lever Act) of 1914 added an extension dimension to the experiment stations. Overall, the end of the 19th century and the first quarter of the 20th was a time for growing appreciation for, and growth of institutional education in the natural sciences, especially botany and its specialties, mycology, and phytopathology. This paper outlines a particular genealogy of mycologists and plant pathologists representative of this era. Professor Albert Nelson Prentiss, first of Michigan State then of Cornell, Professor William Russel Dudley of Cornell and Stanford, Professor Mason Blanchard Thomas of Wabash College, and Professor Herbert Hice Whetzel of Cornell Plant Pathology were major players in the scenario. The supporting cast, the students selected, trained, and guided by these men, was legion, a few of whom are briefly traced here. Key words—“New Botany,” European influence, agrarian roots Chapter 1.

  • 2012 Survey of UN Depository Libraries
    United Nations Dag Hammarskjöld Library 2012 Survey of UN Depository Libraries Introduction The Mission of the UN Depository Libraries Programme is to inform the world’s public about the work and the activities of the United Nations through a system of UN depository libraries. These libraries are independent of the UN but provide comprehensive information based on first­rate collections of UN information resources. As of December 2012, there were 364 depository libraries. The 2012 Biennial Survey of United Nations Depository Libraries was sent to 364 depository libraries. Completion of the biennial survey is a requirement for participating libraries. The survey was launched 10 September 2012 and closed 11 January 2013. Data collection included web­based, e­mail and fax methods. The United Nations continues to expand online access to its information resources and has reduced print runs. It is expected that, ultimately, hard­copy distribution of documents will cease. The destruction by Hurricane Sandy of print shop and distribution facilities in New York may have accelerated this process. In support of the UN’s policy of a reduction in print costs, the Dag Hammarskjöld Library has strongly encouraged depository libraries to move to electronic access instead of print. A major focus of the 2012 survey was to determine how this change from print to digital would impact the UN Depository Libraries Programme in developed and developing countries. While promoting a move to online access, the Dag Hammarskjöld Library must also seek to take into account the varying degrees of connectivity, especially in developing and least­developed countries. An important aspect of the United Nations depository programme is the role that our partner libraries play in outreach and promotion of the use of their UN collections.
