The historical review begins with 1874 because the decision made that year in the Kdlamazoo Case confirmed the right of communities to high schools by taxation. It ends with 1921 because two pisurrtt tal events occurred in that year: first, the organization of the American Association of Junior Colleges, and second, the establishtent of the first unitari.two..year junior college, namely, ,Modesto Junior College in Modesto, California.

Copyright© by The University of Michigan, 1969 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I suppose that lawyers are always curious about the legal history of any institution with which they are affiliated. As the University of Michigan approached its One Hundred Fiftieth year, my deep interest was heightened as I wondered about the legal structure and involvements of this durable edifice over that long period of time. This compendium is the result and I acknowledge the help that I have had.

  • The Michigan Saga
    The Michigan Saga James J. Duderstadt President Emeritus University Professor of Science and Engineering The University of Michigan 2006 Institutional Saga Universities are based on long-standing traditions and continuity, evolving over many generations (in some cases, even centuries) with very particular sets of values, traditions, and practices. Burton R. Clark, a noted sociologist and scholar of higher education, has introduced the concept of organizational or institutional “saga” to refer to those long-standing characteristics that determine the distinctiveness of a college or university.1 Clark’s view is that “An organizational legend (or saga), located between ideology and religion, partakes of an appealing logic on one hand and sentiments similar to the spiritual on the other. Universities develop over time such an intentionality about institutional life, a saga, which then results in unifying the institution and shaping its purpose.” As Clark notes, “An institutional saga may be found in many forms, through mottoes, traditions, and ethos. It might consist of long- standing practices or unique roles played by an institution, or even in the images held in the minds (and hearts) of students, faculty, and alumni. Sagas can provide a sense of romance and even mystery that turn a cold organization into a beloved social institution, capturing the allegiance of its members and even defining the identity of its communities.”2 While all colleges and universities have social roles assigned to them, some have purposively reshaped these into compelling missions that over time achieve sufficient success and acclaim that they become an embracing saga. The appearance of a distinct institution saga involves many elements–visionary leadership, strong faculty and student cultures, unique programs, ideologies, and of course, the time to accumulate the events, achievements, legends, and mythology that characterize long-standing institutions.

  • New Wine in Old Wineskins: Social Structure and the Making of 19Th Century American Calvinism
    NEW WINE IN OLD WINESKINS: SOCIAL STRUCTURE AND THE MAKING OF 19TH CENTURY AMERICAN CALVINISM By Justin Rowe A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of History—Doctor of Philosophy 2015 ABSTRACT NEW WINE IN OLD WINESKINS: SOCIAL STRUCTURE AND THE MAKING OF 19TH CENTURY AMERICAN CALVINISM By Justin Rowe The following analyzes the social structure and intellectual change of an American antebellum community. Essentially, this dissertation focuses on the Presbyterian Church in the early 19th century and suggests that by historically examining its structural dynamics historians and social scientists alike can better understand not only American intellectual history but also the sociology of ideological change. Using the Presbyterian Church as a case study, the project hypothesizes how the social organization of early American Presbyterianism influenced not only the Old and New School schism of 1837, but the transformation of American Calvinism in general. It theorizes that the reason Hopkinsian modifications to Westminster Calvinism successfully diffused across the Presbyterian Church was because the construction of the Erie Canal better connected many of the more progressive, innovative, presbyteries initially isolated on the frontier—thus increasing their capacity to influence the denomination as a whole. In essence, when the canal facilitated an enormous amount of material development in western New York during the 1820s, those presbyteries most affected were also the recipients of numerous Congregational immigrants who had adopted many of the Rev. Samuel Hopkins’ modifications to Calvinism. Thus, while these presbyteries were transforming economically and intellectually, they were also changing structurally as the canal elevated their standing within the church from “peripheral” status to a more influential and connected “semiperipheral” position which ultimately accelerated the diffusion of Hopkinsian theology and the creation of New School Calvinism.

  • Duderstadt Peckham Chapter.Pdf
    The Making of The University of Michigan 1817 - 1996 By Howard H. Peckham Chapter 16 Preparing for the 21st Century By James J. Duderstadt © The Millennium Project, The University of Michigan Ann Arbor, Michigan 1998 Preface Howard H. Peckham’s book, The Making of the University of Michigan, was first published to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the University of Michigan in 1967. Organized by chapters describing the era of each president of the University, from Henry Philip Tappan to Harlan Hatcher, the book became a popular source of information concerning the University’s history to students, faculty, alumni, and friends of the University. To celebrate the 175th anniversary of the University twenty-five years later, the University’s History and Tradition Committee com- missioned Professor Nicholas Steneck and Dr. Margaret Steneck to revise and up- date Peckham’s history, adding chapters on the presidencies of Robben F. Fleming and Harold T. Shapiro, adding numerous illustrations to the text, and revising somewhat the earlier draft. In part as an effort to pull together and organize my own experiences as presi- dent, during the late 1990s I drafted a chapter on “the Duderstadt era” from an au- tobiographical perspective using the Peckham style. Although this might appear to some as adopting the perspective of Winston Churchill who once stated that “History will be kind to me for I intend to write it!”, my rationale was to use the Peckham approach both to understand my tenure and to shape a more ambitious autobiographical project, The View from the Helm, published in 2007.

  • INDIANA MAGAZINE of HISTORY Volume XLVI DECEMBER,1950 Number 4
    INDIANA MAGAZINE OF HISTORY Volume XLVI DECEMBER,1950 Number 4 Religious Influences in the Development of State Colleges and Universities Earle D. ROSS* The search for origins of American institutions, Euro- pean and colonial, has provided endless, as well as generally inconclusive, historical controversies. The pastime has been especially dear to antiquarian partisans of racial, regional, and sectarian interests. Due to notorious liberties in nomen- clature, educational history has been especially open to such indulgences. Thus, to come to the subject in hand, the ques- tion as to whether our state colleges and universities had their beginnings in colonial colleges presents but another exercise in semantics. Church establishments gave their colleges offi- cial sanction and virtual monopoly of higher education under the standing order. Beyond this grant of powers the govern- ment was not obligated. In no case was there the recognition of a responsibility for support and of a duty to promote gen- eral services as against that of safeguarding the doctrines and prerogatives of the particular sect.l To be sure the period was one of genesis, and it may be said that the colonial colleges were the forerunners of our state universities and land-grant colleges in the sense that the dame schools prepared the way for the kindergarten, the Latin grammar school fathered the * Earle D. Ross is a member of the department of history at Iowa State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts, Ames, Iowa.

  • The President's House at the University of Michigan
    The President’s House at the University of Michigan Anne Duderstadt i Preface The President’s House of the University of Michigan is the oldest building on the University campus. It is one of the original four houses constructed to house faculty when the University moved from Detroit to Ann Arbor in 1837. The Cropsey painting of the original campus in 1847 with two of the faculty houses shown on the left The four houses, built by Harpin Lum for a total cost of $26,900, all served the University in one capacity or another through the early years of the twentieth century. Completed in the summer of 1840, two of the houses fronted on North University and the other two on South University. The two-story plan included a central hall with two rooms opening off each side. The identical arrangement was repeated on the second floor. Each room had a fireplace. All of the houses had low-pitched, tin roofs. Emil Lorch, professor of architecture at the University felt these structures "had quiet dignity, good proportion, and excellent detail.” He was particularly impressed with the entrance porches and the intricacies of their cornices. The Early Years From 1841 to 1852 the University was governed by a faculty committee and the houses were apportioned among the professors. In 1852 Henry Philip Tappan became the first President of the University. Henry and Julia Tappan ii Tappan and his family moved into the vacant southwest dwelling and by his presence made it what it remains today—the President’s House. Tappan made no modifications to the house except to see that gas lighting was installed in 1858.

When confronted by an appointed committee of his peers who demanded an explanation, the law student defended his lack of spirited celebration. The newspaper reported that he “was constitutionally incapable of boo-booing at every telegraph report. As to his sentiments, he had a right to th^m and he meant to keep them.” This answer was highly unsatisfactory to the other Michigan law students, who promptly hired a notary public to come to campus.

That two such remarkable and well-known schools of higher learning even exist at all represents a story both stirring and complex that developed over the course of the early nineteenth century cumulating in the passage of the 1862 Morrill Land Grant Act.
