Bowdoin College Bulletin Catalogue Number, Sessions of 1937-1938 Number 240 December, 1937 Brunswick, Maine Bowdoin College Bulletin Catalogue Number, Sessions of 1937-1938 Brunswick, Maine December, 1937 Maine, Entered as second-class matter, June 28, 1907, at Brunswick, under Act of Congress of July 16, 1894. Published monthly by the College. " Bowdoin College BOWDOIN COLLEGE was incorporated by the General Court of Massachusetts, upon the joint petition of the Association of Min- isters and the Court of Sessions of Cumberland County. The act of incorporation was signed by Governor Samuel Adams, June 24, 1794. The legal designation of the Corporation is "The President and Trustees of Bowdoin College. The College was named in honor of James Bowdoin, a distinguished Governor of Massachusetts, of Huguenot descent. The government has been, from the first, vested in two concurrent Boards, the Trustees and the Overseers, the Trustees initiating legislation and the Overseers concurring or vetoing. Since 1870 one-half the vacancies occurring in the Board of Overseers have been filled from nominations from the body of the Alumni. The earliest patron of the College was the Hon. James Bowdoin, a son of the Governor. He gave land, money, and apparatus during his lifetime, and at his death made the College his residuary legatee. His library, collected during his residence in Europe as Minister to Spain and France, contained some 2,000 volumes and as many more pam- phlets. It was rich in French literature and history and rare tracts on American history, and included almost everything in print on Miner- alogy. His art collection, also bequeathed to the College, contained seventy paintings, originals and copies, and one hundred and forty-two drawings by old and modern masters; among the paintings were the portraits of Thomas Jefferson and James Madison by Gilbert Stuart. Circumstances delayed the opening of the College until 1802, when Rev. Joseph McKeen, D.D., was elected its first president. Seven other presidents have since held office: Rev. Jesse Appleton, D.D., 1807-18 19; Rev. William Allen, D.D., 1819-1839; Rev. Leonard Woods, D.D., LL.D., 1839-1866; Rev. Samuel Harris, D.D., LL.D., 1866-1871; Gen. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, LL.D., 1871-1883; Rev. William De- Witt Hyde, D.D., LL.D., 1885-1917; and Kenneth Charles Morton Sills, LL.D., 19 18 to date. More than twelve thousand, seven hundred students have been ad- mitted, and eight thousand, four hundred and seventy-one degrees have been awarded. The living graduates number three thousand, eight hundred and thirty-eight. Among the graduates have been: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Franklin Pierce, and Robert Edwin Peary. 4 Bowdoin College THE COLLEGE BUILDINGS Massachusetts Hall, completed in 1802, was the first college building erected. Previous to 1936, when the entire building was re- modeled, the two upper floors were used for the Cleaveland Cabinet of mineralogy, named in honor of Professor Parker Cleaveland. The whole building is now used for the administrative offices of the College. Maine Hall (1808), Winthrop Hall (1822), named in honor of Governor John Winthrop of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, Apple- ton Hall (1843), named in honor of the second president of the College, and William DeWitt Hyde Hall (191 7), named in honor of the seventh president of the College and erected from contributions from many of the Alumni, are the four dormitories, and form with the Chapel the eastern side of the Quadrangle. The Chapel, a Romanesque Church of undressed granite, designed by Richard Upjohn, was built during the decade from 1845 to 1855 from funds received from the Bowdoin estate. It stands as a monu- ment to President Leonard Woods, under whose personal direction it was erected. In the Chapel is the organ given by Cyrus H. K. Curtis, LL.D., in 1927. Seth Adams Hall was erected in 1860-61. It was named in honor of Seth Adams, Esq., of Boston, who contributed liberally towards its construction. It stands on the Delta, and is used as a recitation build- ing. Memorial Hall, erected in 1868, is a structure of local granite in the Gothic style. It is a memorial to the graduates and students of the College who served in the Civil War, and bronze tablets bearing their names are placed around the hall on the second floor. The lower story is used for recitations. The Observatory was erected in 1890-91 with funds given by Mr. John J. Taylor, of Fairbury, Illinois. It stands on the south-east corner of Pickard Field, and is reached from Harpswell Road. The Walker Art Building was designed by Messrs. McKim, Mead, and White and erected in 1892-94. It was given to the College by the Misses Walker, of Waltham, Mass., as a memorial to their uncle, Theo- philus Wheeler Walker, of Boston, a cousin of President Woods. The Mary Frances Searles Science Building was designed by Henry Vaughan and erected in 1894. It is a gift of Mr. Edward F. Searles in memory of his wife. With the Walker Art Building it forms the western side of the Quadrangle. Hubbard Hall, the library building, was also designed by Henry Vaughan, and erected in 1902-03. It was presented to the College by The College Buildings 5 General Thomas H. Hubbard, of the Class of 1857, and his wife, Sibyl Fahnestock Hubbard. It is built of brick and Indiana limestone and forms the southern end of the Quadrangle. Sargent Gymnasium and General Thomas Worcester Hyde Athletic Building were erected in 191 2. The Gymnasium was built from contributions from many of the students and Alumni, and named in honor of Dudley A. Sargent, M.D., Sc.D., of the Class of 1875; tiie Athletic Building was given by John Hyde, of Bath, in memory of his father, a graduate of the College in the Class of 1861, whose name it bears. Connected with the Gymnasium is the Swimming Pool, given in 1927 by Cyrus H. K. Curtis, LL.D. These buildings stand to the east of the Chapel, outside the Quadrangle. The Dudley Coe Memorial Infirmary is a three-story brick build- ing, erected in 1916-17. It was given by Dr. Thomas Upham Coe, of the Class of 1857, in memory of his son, and stands in the pines to the south of the Gymnasium and Athletic Building. The Moulton Union, designed by McKim, Mead, and White, was erected in 1927-28. It was given by Augustus Freedom Moulton, LL.D., of the Class of 1873, as a social center for the student life of the College. It is two stories in height and stands just outside the Quadrangle, between Appleton and William DeWitt Hyde Halls.

  • I AMERICAN ARCTIC EXPLORATION a SOCIAL and CULTURAL
    AMERICAN ARCTIC EXPLORATION A SOCIAL AND CULTURAL HISTORY, 1890-1930 A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Robert D. Lukens May 2011 Examining Committee Members: Kenneth L. Kusmer, Advisory Chair, Department of History Andrew C. Isenberg, Department of History Susan E. Klepp, Department of History Frederick E. Nelson, External Member, University of Delaware, Department of Geography i ABSTRACT The Arctic has long held power over the American imagination as a place of otherworldly beauty, life-threatening elements, and dangerous wildlife. Nearing the end of the nineteenth century, in a time of great anxiety about the direction of American society, the region took on new significance. As a new frontier, the Arctic was a place where explorers could establish a vigorous and aggressive type of American manhood through their exploits. Publications, lectures, newspaper accounts, and other media brought the stories of these explorers to those at home. Through such accounts, the stories of brave explorers counteracted the perceived softening of men and American society in general. Women played a crucial role in this process. They challenged the perceived male-only nature of the Arctic while their depiction in publications and the press contradictorily claimed that they retained their femininity. American perceptions of the Arctic were inextricably intertwined with their perceptions of the Inuit, the indigenous peoples that called the region home. In the late-nineteenth-century, Americans generally admired the Inuit as an exceptional race that embodied characteristics that were accepted in American Society as representing ideal manhood.

MACMILLAN, HARRISON J. HUNT, AND THE CROCKER LAND EXPEDITION, 1913-1917 BY CHARLES H. LAGERBOM1 The polar careers of three Maine men intersected in the far reaches of the northern Arctic Ocean at a specific geographic spot on the globe: 83° North Latitude, 100° West Longitude. Called Crocker Land, it had been sighted by polar explorer and Maine resident Robert E. Peary on June 24, 1906. In 1913, Mainer Donald B. MacMillan organized the Crocker Land expedition to explore this land that Peary had sighted. Another Mainer, Harrison J. Hunt, signed on as doctor for MacMillan’s venture in 1913. Crocker Land tied them all together, but only one of the three actually stood where it should have been located; another only glimpsed the land from afar; and the third never even got close to it and came to regard its non-existence as an apt metaphor for the entire expedition.

The act of incorporation was signed by Governor Samuel Adams, June 24, 1794. The legal designation of the Corporation is the President and Trustees of Bowdoin College. The College was named in honor of James Bowdoin, a distinguished Governor of Massachusetts, of Huguenot descent. The government has been, from the first, vested in two concurrent Boards, the Trustees and the Overseers, the Trustees initiating legislation and the Overseers concurring or vetoing. Since 1870 one-half the vacancies occurring in the Board of Overseers have been filled from nominations from the body of the Alumni.
