  • Nota Bene News from the Yale Library
    Spring 2005 Volume XIX, Number 1 Nota Bene News from the Yale Library The Lost Papers of Louise Bryant The personal papers of the pioneering foreign correspon- dent Louise Bryant arrived unexpectedly at the Sterling Memorial Library at Yale University. Thought to be lost, the papers contain such treasures as Bryant’s notes on what she witnessed in Russia during the communist revolution of 1917 and several poems written by the young playwright Eugene O’Neill, apparently never before published. Louise Bryant lived a remarkable life. Born in 1885, she was one of the earliest women to become a star foreign correspondent. Her reporting on the Russian Revolution appeared in hundreds of American news- papers and, for a brief period, she was one of the lead- ing authorities in the United States on the new Soviet government, publishing two books on the subject. She knew personally and interviewed many of the leading figures of revolutionary Russia including Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky, and Alexandr Kerensky. Bryant filled her personal life with similarly noteworthy individuals. Her second husband was the radical journalist John Reed; her third husband was William C. Bullitt, the first American ambassador to the Soviet Union and later ambassador to France; and she had a short but 1919 intense affair with Eugene O’Neill. Poster advertising a lecture by Louise Bryant, The Bryant papers came to Sterling Memorial Library along with the papers of William C. Bullitt as part of a deposit by Anne Moen Bullitt, the daughter of Bryant and Bullitt. Biographers of Bryant believed her personal Lloyd Richards papers at the papers to be lost, but when the boxes arrived, archi- Beinecke Library vists were astonished by the quantity and quality of the materials relating to Louise Bryant.

  • TIMELINE of YALE FOOTBALL Updated As of February 2018
    TIMELINE OF YALE FOOTBALL Updated as of February 2018 Oct. 31, 1872 David Schley Schaff, Elliot S. Miller, Samuel Elder and other members of the class of 1873 call a meeting of the Yale student body. From it emerges the Yale Football Association, the first formal entity to govern the game at Yale. Schaff is elected president and team captain. Nov. 16, 1872 With faculty approval, Yale meets Columbia, the nearest football-playing college, at Hamilton Park in New Haven. The game is essentially soccer with 20-man sides, played on a field 400 by 250 feet. Yale wins 3-0, Tommy Sherman scoring the first goal and Lew Irwin the other two. Nov. 15, 1873 Yale and Princeton inaugurate what will become Yale’s longest rivalry. Princeton wins 3 goals to 0. Nov. 13, 1875 Yale and Harvard meet for the first time at Hamilton Park. The game is played under the so-called “concessionary rules”—15 players on a side and running with the ball permitted as in rugby, a round ball and only goals counting as in soccer. A crowd of 2,000 pays 50 cents a head—twice the normal price for a Yale game—to watch Harvard win 4-0. 1880 Walter Camp, in his third year as Yale’s delegate at the Intercollegiate Football Association rules convention, persuades the meeting to accept 11-man, rather than 15-man, sides. He also replaces rugby’s scrum with the scrimmage, which “takes place when the holder of the ball…puts it down on the ground in front of him and puts it in play by snapping it back with his foot.” Nov.

  • Meals+With+Faculty+Program+Semester+Report+
    Introduction Every day, Yale College students interact with their instructors, which include professors, lecturers, and teaching fellows. However, these interactions are typically limited to the classroom and office hours, and relationships tend not to continue past the end of the semester. By creating another way in which students can interact with faculty, students will have the ability to develop stronger relationships, which are valuable for both students and faculty. A Meals with Faculty program would allow students to interact more easily with professors, lecturers, and teaching fellows outside of typical learning spaces. This project aims to institute a robust Meals with Faculty program within Yale College. Background Currently, Yale College does not offer a college-wide Meals with Faculty program for students. Although professors in some classes invite students to meals, whether in the dining hall or off-campus, these are only a handful. There are also several residential colleges that have similar Meals with Faculty programs, such as Davenport College, Branford College, and Grace Hopper College. These college-specific programs are typically run by the residential college councils. In addition to this, students already have the opportunity to schedule meals with tenured professors, who are able to have lunches in the dining halls free of charge. However, many students are unaware of this opportunity or feel uncomfortable asking professors to a meal. A Meals with Faculty program would break down this “barrier” to interacting more with faculty. Peer Institutions Most of Yale’s peer institutions have Meals with Faculty programs in place. Each peer institution has designed a unique program to encourage relationships between students and faculty.

  • Athens Campus
    Athens Campus Athens Campus Introduction The University of Georgia is centered around the town of Athens, located approximately 60 miles northeast of the capital of Atlanta, Georgia. The University was incorporated by an act of the General Assembly on January 25, 1785, as the first state-chartered and supported college in the United States. The campus began to take physical form after a 633-acre parcel of land was donated for this purpose in 1801. The university’s first building—Franklin College, now Old College—was completed in 1806. Initially a liberal-arts focused college, University of Georgia remained modest in size and grew slowly during the Figure 48. Emblem of the antebellum years of the nineteenth century. In 1862, passage of the Morrill Act University of Georgia. by Congress would eventually lead to dramatic changes in the focus, curriculum, and educational opportunities afforded at the University of Georgia. The Morrill Act authorized the establishment of a system of land grant colleges, which supported, among other initiatives, agricultural education within the United States. The University of Georgia began to receive federal funds as a land grant college in 1872 and to offer instruction in agriculture and mechanical arts. The role of agricultural education and research has continued to grow ever since, and is now supported by experiment stations, 4-H centers, and marine institutes located throughout the state. The Athens campus forms the heart of the University of Georgia’s educational program. The university is composed of seventeen colleges and schools, some of which include auxiliary divisions that offer teaching, research, and service activities.
