    Collecting Policy Lake Forest College Archives and Special Collections Updated March 4, 2020

    Collecting Policy Lake Forest College Archives and Special Collections Updated March 4, 2020 Purpose and Mission The purpose of the Lake Forest College Archives and Special Collections is threefold: to support and strengthen the pursuit of academic excellence by the students at the College, to collect, preserve, and provide access to College permanent records for use in College business and by researchers, and to promote a sense of community. Teaching and Learning As stated in the College’s five-year plan, the College seeks to strengthen the quality of academic programs and prepare students effectively for careers. The College Archives and Special Collections assists in these endeavors by providing research opportunities, instruction sessions, and exposure to a broad array of historical primary source material. To integrate the Archives and Special Collections into the curriculum, manuscript and rare book collection development will be in part faculty-driven. Faculty are encouraged to inform the archivist of subjects of long term interest, and identify manuscript collections and rare books related to the curriculum through connections with individuals and organizations. College Records The Archives will collect College records of all formats and media, from the founding of the College to the present. These collections will be made available to College employees and other researchers depending on necessary restrictions. A records management policy and concomitant records schedules will guide offices in transferring files to the Archives and Special Collections. Papers of faculty and alumni will be considered for the College Archives, with collections related to the College and curricular needs being of special interest. The Archives will not collect faculty publications.
  • Meeting 2008

    Meeting 2008

    The Meeting of the Famous Masons (A bit of Imagination is required) INSTALLATION NIGHT AT THE CELESTIAL LODGE As we are all well aware, and as is pointed out in the North East Angle Lecture in the Canadian Rite Ritual, it cannot be denied that we always had many members of rank and affluence. Over the centuries many well known men have been members of our Noble Craft. For a few moments, please allow your imaginations to run wild and consider what may take place at the Installation of The Celestial Lodge, otherwise known as the Grand Lodge Above. Even though it was late fall, there was a warm breeze blowing and the sun was setting behind the Lodge Hall. Gathered in the parking lot filled with their works were Bros Henry Ford, Ransom Olds, Walter Chrysler, John Willys and Andre Citroen. The only vehicle missing was Bro Hart Massey's tractor. Greeting members in the entrance hall was Bro Cliff Arquette of Charley Weaver fame and Bro Ed Wynn. In the boardroom, a group of senior DeMolays were gathered including Bros Walter Disney, Chet Huntley, Wendell Corey, Van Johnson, Robert Cummings, John Steinbeck, Fred McMurray and John Cameron Swayze. King Gillette, razor in hand, passed the lodge caretaker who was having a minor problem with his vacuum cleaner, which was quickly cleared up with the help of its inventor, Bro Frank Hoover, while at the other end of the hallway Bros Emmett Kelly, Clyde Beatty and all seven of the Ringling Bros were discussing the Shrine Circus. Taking a quick look into the Banquet Hall, Bros John Molson, Frederick Pabst and Joseph Schlitz were busy rolling in some kegs of beer for Bros Sam Bronfman, late President of Seagrams Distillers, who was setting up the bar for the Festive Board to follow the Ceremony.

    Library Keynote Speech- June 16,2012

    1. Library Keynote Speech- June 16,2012 When LibraryTrustee Mick Ruddasked me ifI would give the keynote speech on this auspicious occasion, I promised him that it would not exceed Gov- ernor Everett’s two-hour oration at Gettysburg or be as brief as Lincoln’s fifteen- minute address. That leaves me with about one hour and 7 minutes at the most. I will not fret the audience at the outset with such a threat of prolonged dis- course;however, I do have a lot to say about this beautiful and remarkable building being dedicated today as the Provincetown Public Library. Doubtless, you already know the salient facts about this building’s history, but I would I would like to ask you to be a little patient as I walk you through a retrospect of what it was and what it has, by degrees, became, hand in hand with many of those of the past and pre- sent who have enabled us to arrive, through their belief, dedication and sacrifice at the event we are celebrating today. Please recall that the first Methodists in Provincetown were not exactly welcomed by the community in the early 19th century, especially by the Congrega- tionalists, but their number vastly increased between 1795, when their first church was built, and 1860 when the Center Methodist Episcopal Church was constructed. At the time the church was reputed to be the largest church of Methodist denomi- nation in America rising to a height of 162 feet. The spire itself was approximately 62 feet but was dismantled after the Portland Gale by local carpenter Irving Free- man because of its instability The great church soon became a central magnet for a growing population of parishioners with its spacious second floor sanctuary and mezzanine balconies.
