Specifically, Denison seeks to enable each student to— SWASEY CHAPEL Acquire facility in reading, Writing, and speaking; I'ndc rstand the cultural attainments of men; Know something of the meaning and methods of the main branches of barning; 1'nparc for his vocation through intensive study in a specific Bald; Think honestly, clearly, and constructively; Develop interest and pleasure in the continuing, creative use of his abilities and skills; Respect cultural and individual differences; Promote understanding among all peoples; Participate actively and responsibly in the processes of demo- cratic government; Keflect high standards of taste through sound critical judgment and fine discrimination; STATEMENT OF OBJECTIVES 5 Achieve philosophic and religious insights for consistent and constructive living. The assertion that Denison University is a Christian college is a declaration of purpose. To be Christian a college should seek the following: To foster in each student ethical and spiritual qualities; To integrate each personality around Christian principles and ideals; To stimulate a fearless and untiring search for truth; To develop capacity and purpose for creative social and religious living; To cultivate adherence to the highest ethical standards in eco- nomic, political, and social life; and To animate the whole group with Christian idealism. These purposes are to be realized by the following means: Selection of a faculty of men and women of exemplary conduct and character, who are heartily and definitely committed to the Christian purpose of the institution, whose instruction is sympathetic with such a purpose and never hostile to it; Offering specific instruction in religion; Providing for the expression of religion through various suitable organizations and activities; Upholding standards of effort and achievement that are thorough and honest; and Observing Christian ideals in all corporate activities of the University. By common declaration of trustees and faculty, Denison Uni- versity makes those its aims to be progressively and continuously realized.

    Initial Phase of the Scott River Watershed Council STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN October 2005 Update Fiscal Administrator: Siskiyou Resource Conservation District P.O. Box 268 Etna, CA 96027 ABSTRACT and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Scott River Watershed Council (SRWC) has developed this plan for the Scott River watershed for the purpose of cooperatively establishing a common strategy for restoration and management actions. Thus, the Scott River Watershed Strategic Action Plan (SAP) will form the basis for setting priorities for future projects and practices to be supported by the SRWC, the communities within the watershed, and the many funding sources. The SRWC is supported in its current efforts to develop a comprehensive watershed restoration plan through funding provided by the Klamath River Basin Fisheries Task Force (KRBFTF), California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG), the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB), and the Cantara Trustee Council (CTC). Included in the SAP are identified goals, priorities, and strategic actions that will be used to develop projects and studies. Oversight of the planning process is the responsibility of the SRWC. The SRWC provides a multi-interest effort to cooperatively seek solutions, to help manage local resources, and to solve related problems. The primary role is to inform the community on resource issues, to aid in resource management, and to recommend to the Siskiyou Resource Conservation District (RCD) prioritized project opportunities in the Scott River Watershed for funding and implementation. The SAP has been organized using topical sections that describe the various components of the watershed. The abstract will provide a brief description of each of these sections.

    George F. Bristow Concertmaster, 1850-55 Philharmonic Member 1842-84 b. New York, 1825 d. New York, 1898 A founding member of the New York Philharmonic from 1842, George Bristow was the first Concertmaster to succeed U.C. Hill, the founder of the Orchestra. A working musician for most of his life, Bristow began playing in the Olympia Theatre orchestra at the age of 11, and maintained an eclectic performance career even after he joined the Philharmonic six years later. In addition to his work as a violinist, Bristow was conductor of the Harmonic Society from 1851 and director of the Mendelssohn Union. He was also an active church organist and a dedicated composer, writing cantatas, overtures, quartets, anthems, songs, piano pieces and an opera Rip Van Winkle . The Philharmonic has performed eight of his works, the most recent being his String Quartet Op. 2 performed in 2002 at a Philharmonic Ensembles concert. Richard Arnold Concertmaster 1885-1909 Philharmonic Member 1876-1909 b. Eilenberg, Germany, 1845 d. New York, 1918 German violinist Richard Arnold was an important leader of the Philharmonic both as musician and administrator. In addition to his duties as Concertmaster he was a Director of the Society from 1879-95, and Vice President from 1895-1918. Under his watch the Philharmonic made its seminal transition from self-governing organization to modern business administration in 1909 with a managing staff and board. It was at this time that Gustav Mahler was hired as Music Director, and it was with Richard Arnold that Mahler did much of his corresponding.

  • Music. a Monthly Magazine Devoted to the Art, Science, Technic and Literature of Music (Chicago, 1891-1902)
    Music. A Monthly Magazine Devoted to the Art, Science, Technic and Literature of Music (Chicago, 1891-1902) A musical reflection of the American Progressive movement’s concerns for education and reform, Music was published and edited by the music educator and prolific writer William Smythe Babcock (W. S. B.) Mathews (1837-1912). From the first issue, appearing in November of 1891, Music published two volumes per year with each monthly issue containing in excess of 100 pages in octavo format. One double issue appeared in August-September of 1901 and publication was suspended between May and August of 1902. In January 1903 the journal merged with Philharmonic (Chicago, 1901-1903). Totaling some 15,000 pages over 11 years, Music represented the high ideals and progressive character of the editor and chief contributors. Mathews saw the need for a more serious music journal in the United States, to stand in contrast to the numerous news- and review-oriented music journals already in wide circulation. Mathews thus summarized his aims for the journal: “That idea, need it be said? is the establishment of a musical periodical of a character and scope not yet realized in the musical world.”1 W. S. B. Mathews was born on a New Hampshire farm in an environment mostly devoid of music.2 Musically, he was largely self-taught, studying piano with local teachers in New Hampshire, later in Boston, and with William Mason during the summers of 1871 to 1873. During the early 1860s, Mathews taught music in Georgia, North Carolina, West Virginia, Alabama, and Illinois, before finally settling in Chicago in 1867.
