5 Mathematics tn a Liberal Education by Professor H arold L. Dorwart Ever since the founding of the College, mathematics has had an important place in the Triniry cur riculum. The Seabury Professor ship of Mathematics was estab lished in 183 7 and is the second oldest endowed chair in the College. Trinity requires two years of Al gebra and one year of Plane Ge ometry for entrance, and the study of some mathematics in college is required of all undergraduates. Thus, the first objective of the De partment is the offering of a satis Mathematics Faculty. Left to right, John N. Williams; Robert C.
