TME PSI UPSILON REVIEW (bi-monthly) VOLUA\E I NUMBER 6 JUNE, 1896 THE PSI UPSILON REVIEW COMPANY 52 McGraw Block DETROIT, - MICHIGAN PSI UPSILON CONVENTION, ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN, MAY 7, 1896. THE SIXTY-THIRD CONVENTION. In 1868, three years after the Phi had been instituted, that Chapter entertained the delegates of the other branches The of Psi Upsilon. Thirty-fifth Annual was very successful as Conventions went in those days, but it was a small affair' in comparison with the gathering at Ann Arbor in 1880, when the new Chapter House was formally opened, and when Charles Kendall Adams, Clarkson Nott Potter, and Charles Dudley Warner took part in the literary exercises. So, the Convention of 1880, however large its numbers, and however" complete its arrangements, must yield to the conclave held ' May 6-8, 1896, under the auspices of the Phi. It may almost be said that the 63d Convention began one week earlier than the date which had been set for it. April 28-30 witnessed the annual gathering of the Alpha Delta Phi, ' ' held, as was our Convention, in Ann Arbor and Detroit. In honor of the two gatherings the Omicron Chapter of Delta Kappa Epsilon entertained the Psi U. and the Alpha Delt. men at its beautiful Chapter House on Tuesday evening, April 28. This affair the hosts themselves styled a "Dutch Lunch", a term altogether inadequate to express the elaborate hospitality which characterized the entertainment. As the Phi boys returned in steady form^�certified to by an unprejudiced gradu ate�from the dwelling of their ancient rival, they declared " that everything done had been well done and that the ' ' Dekes were "all right." On the morning of April 29, the delegates of Alpha Delta Phi, while passing in front of the Psi U. Chapter House on their way to the Church where their business sessions were to be held, stopped to exchange friendly greetings with our men, many of whom were watching the procession. Incidentally they borrowed a gavel wherewith to call themselves to order. At noon the Peninsular Chapter of Alpha Delta Phi gave a 212 THE PSI UPSILON REVIEW. delightful luncheon to which the members of D. K. E. and Psi U. were invited for the purpose of meeting the delegates of the Star and Crescent. These interchanges of hospitalities have done much to strengthen friendly feeling between the leading Greek-letter orders of the University. Considering the distances which separate the Michigan branch from the other chapters of the Fraternity, it was thought that the informal meeting in the Chapter House on the evening of May 6, would be attended by few members from outside of the State. On the contrary, delegates from every active chapter had signed the Convention Register before night, and the Chapter House was filled with visiting alumni. Throughout the wide halls and porches, and the spacious rooms of the building, members who had met at similar gath erings in times gone by were exchanging fraternal greetings, and graduates of the Phi who had not visited their college home for years were inspecting the structure which in its ori or in ginal its enlarged state was new to many of them. Most of the delegates and many of the alumni were taken by their Phi hosts to the Glee Club Concert in University Hall, but the House was well filled all through the evening, and not until a late hour the did singing of Psi U. songs cease, or were the lights extinguished which had brilliantly illuminated the Chapter House from the top of its lofty tower to the base ment. those alumni Among who arrived Wednesday were the Rev. Dr. Samuel Goodale (Theta '36), one of the seven Founders of the Fraternity, who had come the long distance from Columbus, Nebraska, to attend the Convention ; C. W. Smiley (Xi '74), of Washington, D. C, the Editor of the U. great Psi Catalogue of 1879, which has served as a model for the rolls of all other fraternities ; Joseph A. Mercer (Phi '71), of Peoria, lUinois, one of the charter members of the Phi Earle ; Knight, of Albion, and Charles A. Rust, of Sag both inaw, of the Phi, '71; Francis D.

The Convention song "The Good Psi U." was written by Charles Mills Gayley (Phi '78), Professor of the English Language and Literature in the University of California. Brother Gayley is also the author of "The Yellow and Blue" the most popular of the student songs of the University of Michigan. He had hoped to be able to attend the Conven tion, but the Fates would have it otherwise. Yet next to coming in person he could not have served the Phi better than by the gift of this gem of verse: I. Sing the song that's dearest, brothers, Nearest to the heart and true, Rarer, fairer than all others, � Song of what is most Psi U. Chorus�Sing in triumph, tribulation; Sing in rags and honor, too; Sing, in love of God and nation, � Sing the song that's most Psi U. 2.

This new Psi Upsilon lyric is intended to be sung to the air of "The Garibaldi Liberty Hymn", a stirring tune, and one not hitherto used by college fraternities. Doubtless we shall soon hear it on all sides, just as the other societies caught up, after we had given them the hint, the air to which we sang "Brothers, the Day is Ended." At half after ten o'clock on the morning of Thursday, May 7, the brothers marched from the Chapter House to the beautiful Church of Christ (the second building east of the Psi U. dwelling), where the business sessions of the Convention were to be held. After the call to order, a prayer was offered by the Rev. Dr. Goodale, and then Albert P. Jacobs (Phi '73), Chairman of the Convention Committee, spoke as follows: "For the third time and thrice gladly the Phi greets the delegates of the other chapters.

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.

  • View of the Law Relating to the Confisca- Tion of the Estates of Loyalists, and Furnishes Through Copies of the Papers in the Proceedings an Object Lesson for Lawyers
    1905.] R&port of the Council. 11 REPORT OF THE COUNCIL. THE Council are glad to report that with one exception our ranks are unbroken by death. By vote of the Council the Treasurer, in consultation with the President, has been authorized to procure book- plates (with engraved portraits) of Isaiah Thomas, our founder and first president, and of our fifth president, the late Stephen Salisbury, and this is being done. Mr. Nathaniel Paine has completed the Contents of the Society's Proceedings 1880-1903, which was recently an- nounced, and it is in print ready for distribution. This has involved much labor and will be highly appreciated by all interested in that period. Our associate Mr. Andrew McFarland Davis has presented to the Society about three hundred and fifty copies of his book, "The Confiscation of John Chandler's Estate," and about the same number of his work, "Tracts Relating to the Currency, 1681-1720." The former of these publi- cations contains a review of the law relating to the confisca- tion of the estates of loyalists, and furnishes through copies of the papers in the Proceedings an object lesson for lawyers. The latter contains reprints of the pamphlet literature of the period on the Currency question. There is room enough on the shelves of the libraries of the country for all of these books, although it may take several years for them to find their ultimate destination. Dr. G. Stanley Hall has prepared a memoir of the late Prof. H. B. Adams, and Dr. Jameson has prepared memoirs of the late Sir John G.

  • Xerox University Microfilms
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

The first Catalogus is mentioned in Ezra Stiles' diary. Lists baccalaureate and honorary graduates by year. In later editions, graduates are listed under year alphabetically in two groups, graduates in course and honorary graduates. For the year 1772 only graduates in course appear. At the time of publication of the Historical Catalogue of Brown University, 1764-1894, no copy was known. The copy now in the Archives has been annotated in ink, changing the A.B. after names of 1769 graduates to A.M.

  • A. Kaihe a TRIO THAT MUST GO: CHANGING US-QING RELATIONS from 1868 to 1882
    IRSTI 03.91 https://doi.org/10.26577/JOS-2019-4-o1 A. Kaihe PhD candidate. Graduate School of Core Ethics and Frontier Sciences. Ritsumeikan University, Japan, e-mail: [email protected] A TRIO THAT MUST GO: CHANGING US-QING RELATIONS FROM 1868 TO 1882 Abstract. The Burlingame Treaty of 1868 opened new perspectives in diplomatic action for both the U.S. and the Qing Empire; however, 14 years later in 1882 The Chinese Exclusion Act prohibited Chinese laborers from entering the United States. Those two documents reveal, it seems, completely dif- ferent political attitudes toward the Qing Empire on the part of the United States. The focus of this article is to understand the internal factors that lead the United States to successively adopt these two opposing policies. Constant changes in the domestic political and economic situation of the United States, I argue, have led to the adjustment of foreign policy with the Qing Empire. One caricature from the American satire cartoon magazine PUCK is used to illustrate important aspects of the lesser known history of the US-Qing relations from the 1860s to the 1880s. Key words: US-Qing Relations, Burlingame Treaty, Chinese Exclusion Act, Chinese Labor, GOP, PUCK, Taiping Rebellion, American society, late Qing Empire(1860-1880), “A Trio that Must Go”. А.

  • 5 Beyond Service the Development of Universities As Independent Agents
    5 Beyond Service The Development of Universities as Independent Agents In addition to working directly with government as a partner, univer- sities began to work as its agent, helping establish national standards and define policy in a variety of arenas. The position of universities as agents stemmed in many ways from the loosely coupled regulation of education; from local elementary schools to advanced graduate and professional programs, universities helped define and nationalize the American educational system. This influence had implications far beyond educational policy itself, touching on most every domain into which the formative state would venture. Universities’ service as independent agent of the national state evolved from a variety of interconnected forces. Supported by institu- tional coordination and entrepreneurship, America’s schools worked closely with one another and developed an informal national system of standardization. Though such efforts were not often undertaken in direct concert with federal, state, or local governments, they were often undertaken with these governments’ informal support and occasional input. University leaders would share their plans and expectations with government officials, who would reciprocate with advice and interest as well as their implicit sanction. The federal Bureau of Educa- tion did not develop or enforce standards for secondary schools. How- ever, its representatives worked with universities as they developed and enforced such standards. Establishing Agency: Universities and Standards for Secondary Education With the rise of compulsory elementary and secondary education, the expansion of opportunities in higher education, and the growth of 109 110 Ivory Towers and Nationalist Minds graduate and professional education came a desire for uniform stan- dards and expectations.

  • Law and the Emerging Profession of Photography in the Nineteenth-Century United States
    Photography Distinguishes Itself: Law and the Emerging Profession of Photography in the Nineteenth-Century United States Lynn Berger Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Lynn Berger All rights reserved ABSTRACT Photography Distinguishes Itself: Law and the Emerging Profession of Photography in the 19th Century United States Lynn Berger This dissertation examines the role of the law in the development of photography in nineteenth century America, both as a technology and as a profession. My central thesis is that the social construction of technology and the definition of the photographic profession were interrelated processes, in which legislation and litigation were key factors: I investigate this thesis through three case studies that each deal with a (legal) controversy surrounding the new medium of photography in the second half of the nineteenth century. Section 1, “Peer Production” at Mid-Century, examines the role of another relatively new medium in the nineteenth century – the periodical press – in forming, defining, and sustaining a nation-wide community of photographers, a community of practice. It argues that photography was in some ways similar to what we would today recognize as a “peer produced” technology, and that the photographic trade press, which first emerged in the early 1850s, was instrumental in fostering knowledge sharing and open innovation among photographers. It also, from time to time, served as a site for activism, as I show in a case study of the organized resistance against James A.
