College of Liberal Arts This College has enjoyed a satisfactory year, academically speak­ ing. Its normal program has been continued and in spite of the gen­ eral drop in enrollment it has maintained a student body about sixty- five per cent of prewar figures. The numerous faculty changes will be noted in the report of the Committee on Teaching Force. The various departments of the College have on the whole functioned suc­ cessfully, although the reduction of the teaching staff, on account of reduced enrollment and for the sake of economy, has in a number of cases considerably overloaded faculty members. The Department of Business and Secretarial Studies has suffered somewhat from the complete change in the teaching force. Mr. John E. Whitcraft, who organized the Department in 1939 and successfully built it up, resigned in January to take a position in his chjsen field in the State Education Department in Albany. The Departments of Physical Education for Men and for Women have been combined during the present year with Professor James A. McLane serving as Acting Director of the latter, while carrying on the work with the men. Under his supervision much of the direct instruction of the women has been done by twi young women assis­ tants. No intercollegiate sports program has been maintained this year. However, there were a few basketball games by Alfred stu­ dents with member teams of the Hornell Church League. It is hoped that more of an itercollegiate sports program can be undertaken in 1945-46, but this depends on the number of men enrolled next fall. A full program of intramural sports was enjoyed and widely participated in. The large enrollment of women students, freshmen and sopho­ mores, made possible a good program for them. The W< men's Ath­ letic Governing Board promoted activities in basketball, volley ball, fencing, archery, soft ball, badminton, field hockey, etc.. according to the season of the year. Our former Director of Physical Education for Women, Miss Lavina E. Creighton, is to return next fall. The Department of Nursing has a good enrollment. There are 54 on the campus carrying the work of the first year and 35 in co­ operating hospitals. A class completed its work last September and another, the third so far, wrill finish in June. The completion of the campus year is marked by an impressive "capping" ceremony. The Department is hampered by insufficient teaching personnel on the campus and properly trained teachers in the hospitals. This situation is due in part to limited funds and in part to the great scarcity of eligible teachers of nursing. Our long-established program for training teachers for secondary schools continues successfully. The demand for teachers is prac­ tically unlimited. With only seven seniors preparing to teach, six have signed contracts and the seventh has a contract pending. The average salary for beginners is approximately $1,800. The Graduate Division offered four courses throughout the year, with twenty-three students the first semester and eighteen students enrolled in these courses the second semester. It is expected that three candidates for the degree of Master of Education will be ready for Commencement. The Dean of the College, as usual, pleads in his report for a more adequate and expanded Department of Music. A rejuvenated orches­ tra has prospered this year. A Committee on Postwar Education has been at work for many months studying the Liberal Arts curriculum with a view to recom- PRESIDENT'S REPORT 11 mending timely changes. One of its reports favoring a substantial, new course integrating history, social studies and English, running through the freshman and sophomore years, has been approved by the faculty. School of Theology The School of Theology has enjoyed a normal year. Two Seventh Day Baptist students, a Wesleyan Methodist, and a Free Methodist have been working toward the Bachelor of Divinity degree. Dean Bond has had a class of ten Liberal Arts College students studying "A Faith for Today". The Dean also has made it a pcint to attend the ordination of all the young men who have graduated in the decade of his deanship. The School is comfortably in the black, financially speaking. There still persist the two problems of future faculty per­ sonnel due to the age of the present members of the faculty, and the extent to which the local School should try to give all three years of the Bachelor of Divinity course.

College of Ceramics The chief obstacle in the work of the College of Ceramics for the present year has been the small enrollment, about one-third of normal. This has greatly limited the usual activities of the College in the work cf its professional societies like the Student Branch of the American Ceramic Society. However, the situation at Alfred is far better than that in other ceramic schools and departments. None of these has an enrollment of over fifteen and some are not operating at all. Last autumn an important conference on the Glass Technology curriculum was held in Hornell and valuable suggestions were made for bringing that curriculum more fully into line with the needs of the glass industries. Just recently a conference on the Ceramic En­ gineering curriculum has been held at the College with very valuable results. It will take some time to study the proceedings and papers of this conference and extract from them the ideas which can be in­ corporated into the engineering curriculum. It is necessary in all these changes to take account not only of the varied needs of the industries, but also of the requirements for educational accrediting. It is highly desirable that the College maintain its present accrediting with the Engineers' Council for Professional Development. Dean Holmes has a verbatim report of the Conference on Engineering Curriculum. The proposed building for the College of Ceramics is now fully assured and the funds have been made available. As soon as re­ strictions on building materials are lifted construction can be started. 11 111 IIII, III! The Ceramic Industries Association of New York State and the Up-State New York Section of the American Ceramic Society, founded last year, are prospering and are proving valuable to the College. The Ceramic Experiment Station has ten regular research workers be­ sides some on part time. They are doing a variety of work. There are six fellowships established by various industries, paying from four hundred dollars to five thousand dollars a year. Much of this fellowship work is supervised by the Experiment Station. Graduates of the College, as of most schools today, are in almost unlimited demand. Agricultural and Technical Institute The Agricultural and Technical Institute has suffered most seri­ ously in enrollment, having had during the present year less than one-third of its normal student body. However, the number is con­ siderably larger than last year. The greatest piece of war work that the Institute has done has consisted of the training of men and wo­ men for specialized war service. During the four and a half years that various of these programs have been running, 2,844 individuals have been trained. These fields have included machine shop, radio, refrigeration, electronics, drafting, mechanics, special farm worker groups like those from Kentucky and Newfoundland, bus drivers, and others. Of the twenty-seven returned veterans on the campus, eighteen are in the the Institute. The veterans have organized themselves for mutual assistance under the name of "Sons of the Broken Wing". The Institute building program is assured to the extent of $359,000 for the Industrial Building and $75,000 for the Farm Machinery Build­ ing. The latter building will be opposite the present barns and shops on the farm. Next year the Institute plans to return to the two-semester schedule, paralleling the calendar of the University.. Director Paul B. Orvis has been promoted to the rank of Major and is now in Ger­ many with the AMG. The problem of the future relation between the expanded Agricultural and Technical Institute and Alfred Univer­ sity is one to be worked out. Summer School The Summer School of 1944 was on the usual pattern. The enroll­ ment was small but a substantial surplus was booked due to reduced faculty personnel and the concentration of courses. The main work was in Ceramics and in Education. These evidently are good fields for postwar development. The total enrollment in all phases of the summer work of 1944, the Summer School of Surveying, the Inter- session, the Summer Semester in Ceramics, the Summer Semester for Cadet Nurses, and the regular six-week session was 139.

PRESIDENT'S REPORT 15

Technical Institute The Institute was shocked and saddened by the news of the death October 12, 1944, of Captain Bror H. Anderson, head of the Depart­ ment of Floriculture, on (military) leave with the armed forces. Mr. William B. Harrison, Instructor in Electricity, who enlisted in the Navy last spring, 1944, was called into active service on Labor Day. His place was taken by Mr. L. Eugene Reynolds, a former mem­ ber of the LTniversity staff. Miss Margaret A. Aylor, Instructor in Secretarial Studies, resigned to accept a similar position in the College of Liberal Arts of the University.

Campus The campus has had the appearance during the year of being that of a women's college. Two hundred and fifty-seven women have been enrolled in the two Colleges, a number larger than any reached heretofore. The Brick is filled. Fifty women are housed in Bartlett Dormitory and fifty-four in sororities. A new sorority has been estab­ lished especially on the basis of no religious or race discrimination. The cooperative house, which has been in successful operation for several years, is now finishing its second year in The Castle on [Rey­ nolds Street. This house provides it more room. Departmental clubs in the College of Liberal Arts, such as the French, Spanish, Latin, Mathematics and International Relations Clubs, have maintained most of their usual activities. No serious disciplinary problems have marred the year. Student morale has been higher than in the recent war years and faculty- student relations unusually cordial. Doubtless the success of the Student Union and snack bar established last fall has had consider­ able to do in promoting these pleasant relations. Activities among the organizations of the College of Ceramics have been considerably restricted due to the small enrollment of men students. The usually good relations between the Agricultural and Technical Institute and the University have been maintained. A good quality of Assembly programs and an attractive series of Forum entertainments and lectures have characterized the year. Ex­ cellent dramatic productions have been presented by the Department of Dramatics. Religious Life The University Church has had a good year under the new chap­ lain, Dr. B. Davie Napier. There has been a usual attendance of be­ tween 175 and 200. The special services like the Christmas Candle­ light Service, the Memorial Service for the late Franklin D. Roosevelt, and the V-E Thanksgiving Service were unusually well attended. In the last mentioned there was scarcely standing room. The experiment of a twenty-minute chapel Wednesday noons in­ stead of the four chapel services a week has proved successful. The vested chapel choir of nine voices has enhanced that program. The chaplain usually presents a ten-minute meditation. There has been a normal attendance of seventy-five to one hundred faculty members and students. The Alfred Christian Fellowship, now named the Alfred Religious Fellowship, to take in all religious groups, maintains the traditional Sunday afternoon music hour and the evening religious service. These meetings are attended by sixty to one hundred students. The chaplain has also taught Sociology and New Testament five hours per week. Much of his time is spent in private student coun­ seling. S.S. Alfred Victory The S.S. Alfred Victory was launched at one of the Richmond, California, yards of the Permanente Metals Corporation, April 11. The University provided, as is customary in such cases, a present to the ship in the form of a small library, a mounted seal of the University and framed scroll briefly describing the institution. A small number of alumni were present on invitation of the company. The President of the University sent a short message, most of which was read at the ceremony. After the launching the company sent to the University pictures and detailed information about the whole affair.

Finance Financial details available at this time in the fiscal year will ap­ pear in the reports of the Treasurer and the Director of Finance at the June meeting. The Treasurer reports in general that the deficit for the present year (ending June 30) will be between $25,000 and $30,000. The estimate includes operating revenue and expenses, aca­ demic and non-academic, as well as gifts received to aid the Univer­ sity in meeting these war crises. Last year, 1943-44, the same total amount showed a surplus (debt reduction) of about $27,000. Therefore, at the end of the present year the financial situation, indicated by the debt level, promises to be about as it was two years ago, June 30, 1943.

Enrollment, 1945-46 The Counselor to Prospective Students is working hard on this part of his duties. He reports that his office is short-handed, that his PRESIDENT'S REPORT 17 budget is restricted, and that certain publications which he usually has for use in promoting student enrollment are, therefore, not avail­ able. He has been holding interviews with numerous prospects in New York City and elsewhere. However, while figures at this time of year are not very significant, prospects for a much larger student body in the fall are not flattering. The Counselor is also giving, as already intimated, much attention to the study of veterans' educa­ tional problems. Gifts The following gifts are acknowledged with thanks and with the observation that gifts have kept Alfred University alive during these world-shaking years. Fifty-eight alumni and friends of the University have given a total of $22,890.46 through "The Hundreds Club," divided as follows. One gift of $7,962.50; one of $2,500; two of $1,600; one of $1,000; three of between $500 and $1,000; sixteen of between $100 and $500; and thirty-three of $100. There were besides these gifts 658 others of less than $100 totaling $12,669.51. I take pleasure in announcing also an additional Herrick Scholar­ ship in the amount of $6,075.00; and a gift by Mr. William L. Ames of $5,000.00 for the purpose of developing the Department of Music. These make a grand total of $46,635.97. Student Aid Students have been helped financially in the following ways and to the amounts listed. Scholarships 61 students $ 12,227.44 Loans (cash, etc.) 1 student 256.68 Credit Grants 20 students 4,740.00 Work 24 students 5,980.00 Departmental Assistants 14 students 712.78

Total $ 23,916.90

War War-born difficulties have multiplied the coal and food shortages, the rapid changes in office, campus and dormitory personnel have badgered the University as they have other people. Large meetings of people have been prohibited, and vacations travel restricted. It was possible to allow the spring vacation at Alfred because the Erie Railroad passenger accommodations are not crowded. A postwar question that should be considered is: Should Alfred University apply for a Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC) ? 1 II 111 kit U1J! Veterans Special committees of the faculties of the two Colleges are study­ ing the matter of the returning veterans who will wish to begin t col­ lege work or continue studies interrupted by the war. The complica­ tions involve the number who may apply at Alfred, whether they are our men (and women) coming back, or strangers, the number as divided betwreen ceramics and liberal arts, and the distribution among the courses or specializations offered within each College. Also im­ portant are the questions of acceleration and the times at which veterans can be admitted to college—whether at the opening semesters only, at any time, or at some number of times between those ex­ tremes. Housing of married veterans may present problems. It is hoped that the committees mentioned, including the two deans as ex- officio members, may in consultation with the Counselor on Veterans' Education evolve some workable answrers.

President's Retirement Unavoidable delay in the selection of a new President of the Uni­ versity led the present President to assure the Chairman of the Board and the chairman of the committee on recommending a candidate that in order to avoid anything like a temporary acting presidency he would continue, if desired, until a regular successor could take over. For himself, the President plans on retirement to finish the re­ search and to write the centennial history of the University. He also would like to edit a Davis of Alfred paralleling the fine Allen of Alfred by the late Dr. Edwin H. Lewis. He has been asked to write along denominational historical lines, and his family is anxious for him to do some autobiographical writing. For the year 1945-46 he will be District Governor of the 171st District of Rotary International. He plans to continue his residence in Alfred for the greater part of the year.

Coffee Shop The University operates the Coffee Shop at a loss. If this ran to no more than $400 or $500 per year, it would be worth the loss to have a satisfactory place for University guests and visitors coming to do business with the University, its faculty and students. How­ ever, the deficit is three times the figure mentioned and will be doubled again as we conform to the requirements of the minimum wage law. The Executive Committee authorized closing the Coffee Shop for the summer. It will be most inconvenient not to have such a place open, especially when guests cannot be entertained at The Brick for meals during school vacations. PRESIDENT'S REPORT 19

Various Items Infirmary. The Infirmary is adequate for present enrollment, but is inadequate for our normal-sized body, to say nothing of prospec­ tive expansions all around. Attention should be given to some pos­ sible solutions the Treasurer has looked into in connection with his financial management of the nurse training program. Bard en Bill. A Bill now before Congress resulting from an ex­ haustive study on the effect of the war on the colleges would make certain provisions by the Federal Government to help preserve the colleges and universities for effective service after the war. One pro­ vision would make a "stand-by" cash payment to a college the en­ rollment of which, for at least a semester or term, falls below 60% of its pre-war average. The Bill, if passed, would be effective for the year 1945-46. Alfred might profit from such a law, especially due to its loss from the small enrollment of Ceramic students. The Jamestown Extension. The Alfred University Extension in Jamestown, New York, has had a good year. It has expanded its ser­ vices by affiliating with it the Women's Christian Association Hos­ pital of that city, teaching chemistry for the members of its school of nursing. Next year it is planned also to teach the English for those nurses. A campaign to raise $25,000 for the Extension has been almost completed. It is quite evident that the sum will be realized. The total enrollment for the past year was 116. The Library. The reorganization of the Library goes on under the energetic direction of the Librarian. With the reduced enroll­ ment the circulation of books is naturally much reduced. Surplus War Material. All the schools on the campus are on the lookout for surplus war material appropriate to their own needs.

Appreciation As I conclude this my last report to the Board of Trustees of the University, I desire to express to the members my keen appreciation of their support and friendship during my years in this office. To Dr. Orra S. Rogers who was Chairman for so many years, including the earlier part of my administration; to Dr. Charles P. Rogers, the Chairman during these last strenuous years, I owe a debt of grati­ tude for confidence and help which I can never repay. The active committees, especially the Executive Committee, the Investment Com­ mittee, and the Committee on Heating and Electrical Equipment, have been towers of strength to the University and have given great satis­ faction to me. The financial support of the University by trustees whose means and influence enabled them to do so has been such that I 11IIII 1.1 probably to those trustees and other givers the University owes its survival. Without their confidence and substantial backing I would have many more gray hairs than I have. All have borne with my mistakes and shortcomings, encouraged my efforts, and praised any successes I may have had. Ladies and gentlemen of the Board, I thank you all more than any words of mine can convey. May I also thank the Board for the honor done me in electing me President-Emeritus, and for the provision for a convenient office in which I may work comfortably when retirement comes next fall.

REPORTS OF OTHER ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICES OF THE UNIVERSITY

On Topics not Covered or Only Partially Covered in the President's Report REPORT OF THE DEAN, COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS

Excerpts To the President of Alfred University: I have the honor of submitting my eleventh annual report as Dean of the College of Liberal Arts for the year 1944-1945. My time during the past year, in addition to that devoted to teaching, has been given to advising with members of the faculty in connection with the problems of the several departments, to super­ vision of and sharing in the counseling of students in their scholastic problems, and to the usual supervision of the Alfred University Ex­ tension in Jamestown which I have carried on for the last eight years. My teaching has consumed fully one-half of my time especially during this second semester. Twenty-two members of the senior class, one man and twenty- one women, are fully expected to complete their courses and be gradu­ ated on Commencement Day on June eleventh. Their major fields of study are distributed among eight different departments, as follows: Biology 1, Business and Secretarial Studies 5, English 4, History and Political Science 3, Geology 1, Mathematics 1, Sociology and Psych­ ology 5, and Spainish 2. In the class of 1946 there are thirty students, six men and twenty-four women, with majors as follows: 2 in Bi­ ology, 7 in Business and Secretarial Studies, 3 in Chemistry, 5 in English, 1 in French, 2 in History and Political Science, 6 in Sociology and Psychology, and 4 in Spanish. The number of changes in the personnel of the faculty for the current year has been the greatest since I was appointed Dean of the College. With the termination of the Army Specialized Training Pro­ gram in Alfred University in May of last year, it became necessary to reduce our teaching staff, at least temporarily, to fit the needs of the civilian program in which the number of students was about two-thirds the number usually enrolled in pre-war times. As a matter of fact, for various reasons fourteen members of the faculty who were giving full time on the campus have been released from service either before the beginning of the college year or during the year. To offset the fourteen who have left the institution, seven new full-time mem­ bers have been added to the faculty. I III IIII 1.1 Inasmuch as Mrs. Hazel H. Harvey, Director of Nursing, is giving you a detailed report of the cadet nurse program which she supervises, I shall merely comment on the part I have played in co­ operating with the Director. It has been my privilege to share in the plans and preparations for the two Capping Exercises which were held on May 10 and September 1, 1944. At these two exercises thirty- four nurses were capped and soon after were placed in affiliated hos- pisals for the continuation of their courses. Furthermore I have con­ ferred frequently with the Director and also with the teachers who are giving instruction in this program in administering a scholastic counseling system for the student nurses on the campus. Honors were awarded to nine students at the two capping programs. Very few girls have been dropped for poor scholarship. It is well known to you that I am deeply interested in the organ­ ization of an adequate music department in the college. This should afford to all students opportunities for individual and collective in­ struction in voice training and instrumental playing, largely as extra­ curricular activities. Music instruction in high schools has grown by leaps and bounds in recent years. When freshmen enter Alfred University they look in vain for worthwhile opportunities to carry on those musical activities in which they participated while in high school and in which they found so much cultural value. There is no good reason why we should not have, with our normal registration of men and women, a thriving college chorus, glee clubs, or a specially trained a capella choir, a symphony orchestra, and a band, together with good instruction to individuals in voice or in the instruments that make up orchestra and band. A good percentage of students would find their places in such organizations and the result would be a definite improvement in the cultural atmosphere of the campus. The fact that when outstanding musical artists appear in our Forum programs they find the Alfred student audience unusually responsive, is evidence that a large number of our students have had musical experiences before coming to Alfred which help them to understand what good music is and to appreciate enthusiastically programs pre­ sented by good artists. Our students therefore should have oppor­ tunities to participate in producing good music in home programs. A start in this direction has been made during this year. A small group of students, being already good players of violin, cello, and flute, urged the organization of a college orchestra. This was accom­ plished in the first semester. Mr. W. P. Austin, the successful teacher and leader of music in the Alfred-Almond Central School, was em­ ployed to instruct and lead this orchestra. The result has been very gratifying. In March this orchestra, augmented by certain players from the Central School and with the use of some of its equipment, COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS, DEAN'S REPORT 23

presented a very creditable hour's program in the College Assembly. The orchestra numbers about twenty-five players. Plans have already been made for continuing this organization next year with Mr. Austin's leadership and developing a larger and better orchestra by additions of incoming freshmen who have been trained in high school. f The Alfred University Extension at Jamestown has had a better year and a larger enrollment than it had one year ago. This is par­ tially because of the fact that the Women's Christian Association Hospital requested Alfred University, through the Extension, to pro­ vide the instruction in chemistry, psychology, and sociology, for the girls of its School of Nursing. Arrangements were made for this to be done. The girls entering this School of Nursing are all high school graduates and have satisfied entrance requirements fully equal to those of Alfred University. Twenty-eight additional students were thus included in the enrollment of the Extension this year. The Uni­ versity gives college credit to these students in the above mentioned subjects which are taught by our own faculty. Next year it is ex­ pected that Freshman English will be added to the list of subjects taught the nurses. The enrollment figures for the current year are as follows: Men Women Total Freshmen 13 17 30 Sophomores 2 6 8 Specials .15 35 50 Nurses 28 28

Totals 30 86 116 The total registration in the first semester was one hundred and four, while for the second semester it is seventy-eight. Twelve new students entered at the beginning of the second semester while thirty-eight with­ drew either during the first semester or at its end. Five of our present student body at Alfred have been students in the Alfred University Extension. Three of these are seniors, one is a junior, and one a sophomore. ' The regular teaching staff, numbering five, is the same as that of last year. In addition to the full-time members of the faculty, three members of the Municipal Laboratory staff have done part-time teaching. Miss Florence M. Varley has given the theoretical part of our regular course in inorganic chemistry while in the first semester Mrs. Alberta Morse Jones assisted in the chemical laboratory. Dr. Frederick R. Weedon, the director of the Municipal Laboratory, has taught classes at the Laboratory in bacteriology and histology as a part of our program. Salaries of four teachers were increased this year from one hundred to two hundred dollars each. The general situation in Jamestown with reference to the Ex­ tension is somewhat better than that reported to you a year ago. There are the same hopes and long-time plans as previously reported. However it is clear that a wider circle of Jamestown residents, par­ ticularly those of influence and means, are genuinely interested in this educational project, are accepting positions of responsibility on the Citizens' Committee, and are giving it financial support. The affiliation first with the Municipal Laboratory and now with the Wo­ men's Christian Association Hospital, have increased the prestige of the school. More and more people are realizing the value of an educational institution in Jamestown. The future grows brighter, A concrete evidence of this picture is the dinner which three of us from Alfred, including myself, attended very recently at which a fully organized financial campaign was launched to raise $25,000.00 for the support of A.U.E. over a period of three years. Personally I am much encouraged by the prospects for the future, and am more definitely expectant that before long a separate building devoted ex­ clusively to the purposes of the Extension will be provided. I as­ sure you it is a pleasure to me to have the privilege of sharing direct­ ly in the promotion of such a worthwhile project. And now, Mr. President, it is with genuine regret that I realize that this is the last report I shall have the privilege of making to you as president. I have enjoyed greatly my official relations with you during these eleven years. Your unfailing kindly interest in me and in my work, and your cordial support of my efforts, are deeply appreciated.

REPORT OF THE DEAN OF THE NEW YORK STATE COLLEGE OF CERAMICS

( Excerpts )

To the President of Alfred University: I hereby submit my report as Dean of the Ceramic College on the management of the college for the year 1944-1945. During the year, the difficulties of operating the college effective­ ly have mounted to an all time high. Consequently, much less has been accomplished than was accomplished in each of the preceding 12 years that the writer has had charge of the college, and the status of the college is much below normal. However, we have not relaxed our efforts and some things have been accomplished. I shall attempt to give as complete and detailed a picture of the status and needs of the college as possible. STATE COLLEGE OF CERAMICS, DEAN'S REPORT 25

Goodwill and Cooperation First of all, I want to give credit where credit is due for the progress that has been made. Goodwill and cooperation are absolute­ ly essential, if we are to accomplish anything of real importance. Therefore, I wish to emphasize this item by putting it first in this report. The college continues to enjoy the finest kind of relationship with all the other Ceramic Schools, with most of the State Depart­ ments at Albany, with the Agricultural and Technical Institute next door, with the American Ceramic Society, with the Treasurer's Office at Alfred, and with almost all of the alumni and members of the American Ceramic Society. We are particularly indebted to the Ceramic Industries of New York and the Ceramic Association of New York for whole hearted backing and cooperation.

Student Enrollment The total enrollment for the year is 111, about one third of norm­ al. This enrollment of 111 is made up of 10 seniors, 16 juniors, 31 sophomores, 42 freshmen, 5 graduate students and 7 specials. It can also be broken down into 64 women and 47 men. These enrollment statistics have to be analyzed further to get their real significance. Of the 10 seniors, only two are in the tech­ nology and engineering departments, of the 16 juniors, only 2 are in these departments. The others are girls in the design department. The result of this condition is that we could not have this past year, any of the important student activities such as Keramos, the Alfred Student Branch of the American Ceramic Society and the publica­ tion of the Alfred Engineer. We depended on these student activities to maintain a high morale amongst the students and their elimination has quite adversely affected the status of the college. The enroll­ ment situation, therefore, is worse than would be inferred from the mere statement that the enrollment is 111. Another disappointment is the failure of the girls to make good in the engineering courses. At the beginning of the year, we had hopes that girls would take these courses to make up in part for the deficiency in male registration. Three girls started in. Two have fallen by the wayside and the other one probably will. We are now convinced, that it is only the exceptional girl that can become adapted to technological and engineering courses. In the future, as in the past, we will have to depend upon boys to fill the ranks in these two departments. On the other hand, there is a bright side to the enrollment situ­ ation. We are lucky to be operating at all. I know of no other Ceramic School that has more than 15 students and most of them have none. With our enrollment of 111 we are, of course, outstand­ ing in this respect. I understand, also, that we compare very favor­ ably with the other State Colleges in regard to this matter of en­ rollment. It is opportune at this time, to take a view of the long range trend of the enrollment situation. The first period is the one of slow growth ending in 1931-32. In 1932 the present policies and organization were set up which are radically and fundamentally different from what prevailed before. That ushered in the period of rapid growth reaching a maximum in 1937-38. In that year we could have had 100 more students if we had wanted them, but we kept the figure at about 330 because that represented the limit of our facilities. Then the war came, and start­ ed the decline that is continuing and will undoubtedly keep the figure low until the war is over. However, it is perfectly obvious that after the war, the enroll­ ment will rebound right back to the high figures. We are planning on a normal enrollment of about 430 after the war, and planning our new building and facilities accordingly. We believe the foregoing enrollment statistics justify that optimism. At this point, I want to drop this side light on the situation. It will be eight years before the industries will have a reservoir of ceramic graduates available at the ceramic schools.

Miscellaneous Items Bearing on the Scholastic Work of the Institution The scholastic morale of the students has been remarkably good, considering the circumstances that have prevailed. The tension and strain from the war has not been bad insofar as the students are concerned. This is true in spite of the fact that some didn't know from one month to the next, whether they would be inducted into the services. We have continued our efforts to obtain deferment for as many as possible and are surprized that so many have been deferred. The only student non-scholastic activity in operation in the Cer­ amic College is the Ceramic Guild which is an organization of the design students. It has operated on a very much curtailed basis. For example no Christmas sale of pottery was held at Christmas time this year and there have been no prominent social affairs provided by it. However this organization, as well as the Alfred student branch exists on paper. Officers have been elected and their picture will appear in the Kanakadea. We have relaxed our entrance requirements considerably, no longer limiting our enrollment to the upper third of the class in high STATE COLLEGE OF CERAMICS, DEAN'S REPORT 27 school. However, we are careful not to relax these requirements enough to endanger our accrediting. The teaching faculty have not had enough of their regular work to do, to keep them busy. I have endeavored to get them to take up the slack by doing research work, writing promotional literature, re­ vising lecture notes, reorganizing laboratory work and other mis­ cellaneous activities that contribute to the program of the college. I have been only moderately successful in these efforts. The Charles F. Binns medal has not been awarded for two years It is impossible to get a bronze medal made, and the alumni committee, appointed to make changes in the jury, has not yet reported. The foregoing section of this report on the scholastic work of the college is brief for the reason that not much can be said about it in a report of this kind. It is to be noted however, that the edu­ cation of the students, is the main work of the college and it is the work that receives most of our attention.

Educational Conferences In accordance with the instructions of the Board, we called a conference of glass technologists, to discuss our glass technology curriculum for the purpose of finding out if the industry could sug­ gest any changes in the curriculum that would result in our graduates being better prepared for service to the glass industries. We invited all the New York glass companies to send representatives to this conference and also invited Dr. Hostetter, President of the Mississippi Glass Company of St. Louis, Mo. Dr. Hostetter served as chairman of the conference. The others in attendance were: Mr. Murray Scott and Mr. Vincent Young of the Bausch and Lomb Optical Company, Dr. William McCauley of the Corning Glass Works, Dr. James H. Arrandale of the Thatcher Manufacturing Company, President J. N. Norwood, Professor C. R. Amberg and the writer. Mr. Francis Flint sent a written communication. It was suggested that we develop more active cooperation with the industries, that we give more instruction in the use of instruments, and that enough engineering work be introduced to win E.C.P.D. ac­ crediting. However, the recommendation that was emphasized and in which all agreed, was that we incorporate in the curriculum more mathematics, chemistry, and physics, particularly physics even at the expense of some of the specialized glass technology courses. They wanted us to devote more time to the scientific fundamentals and less to the applied glass technology courses. In this connection, it is significant to note that there was only one person at the con­ ference that graduated from college as a glass technologist. All the other representatives from the industry have made good in the in- dustry on the basis of their college education in mathematics, chem­ istry and physics. Regardless of that circumstance, however, we ac­ cepted the recommendations and are introducing into the curriculum differential equations, statistics and additional work in physics tak­ ing out their equivalent in specialized glass technology courses. Con­ sidering the curriculum, as a whole, these are only minor changes. The curriculum stands substantially as it was set up 13 years ago. Ohio State University recently held a conference to develop a glass technology curriculum for that Institution. It is presumed that they constructed their curriculum from the ground up, without paying any attention to what we had done 13 years ago. It is highly significant that they ended with a curriculum substantially the same as ours. We feel that this verifies the curriculum which we developed, and entitles us to be considered the pioneers in glass technology education. We are following this conference up with another one on the ceramic engineering curriculum. At a recent meeting of the Board of Directors of the Ceramic Association of New York, I suggested that the Association appoint an educational committee to represent the Association, come to Alfred and advise on how that curriculum could be altered to improve it. Dr. L. E. Barringer, of the General Electric Company, was appointed chairman of this committee, the member­ ship of which he selected himself. The other members are Dr. Ed­ ward Schramm of the Onondoga Pottery Company, Mr. Gordon Phil­ lips of the Olean Tile Company, Mr. Clarence Austin of the Bingham- ton Brick Company, Mr. George Easter of the Carborundum Company and probably Mr. Grant Diamond of the Electro Refractories and Alloys Corporation. They are to meet with the writer and the staff of the Ceramic Engineering Department on May 16. We held a conference of this kind in 1933 on our Industrial De­ sign curriculum, which conference developed the basis for this cur­ riculum that has been in effect for the past 12 years. When we have held this Ceramic Engineering conference, we will have subjected all of our curriculums to scrutiny and appraisal.

The Ceramic Association of New York The Ceramic Association continues to be a pillar of strength for the College. Its value could hardly be over-estimated. The past year has been the most successful in the eleven years of its existence. The membership is the largest and the interests and activities of its members are at a peak. The Annual Meeting, which was held in Alfred last October was the best attended and the most successful meeting we have ever had. It was the tenth anniversary meeting and it was made the occasion for honoring the members of the Board, STATE COLLEGE OP CERAMICS, DEAN'S REPORT 29 who helped organize the Association, with special acknowledgment of the services of the writer as its Secretary-Treasurer. The Association is engaged in a campaign of promoting New York Ceramic products particularly in connection with the State's Post­ war Building Program. A special committee of the Association has been very active at Albany at this task. It is proposed to set up at Albany, an exhibit of New York products for the purpose of showing the wide range and high quality of them. The Ceramic College de­ sign students were interested in the project by offering prizes amount­ ing to $195.00 for the best design for this exhibit. The results were twelve designs that have won high praise for outstanding quality. The prizes were awarded by Mr. Austin at one of the weekly assem­ blies. Their designs are to be taken to Albany and displayed where they will be most effective in impressing the State officials with desirability of using New York products in its building program. The Association continues to provide recognition for the students submitting the best research theses. This is done by a committee of the Association reviewing the theses and selecting the best one. A prize and certificate is then presented to the winning student.

Upstate New York Section of the American Ceramic Society The Upstate Section of the American Ceramic Society, which the writer organized last year, has had a surprisingly successful year and has resulted in great benefit to the Ceramic College.

The Building Program Excellent progress is being made on the plans for the new buildings. We are putting a lot of time and effort into this job. No detail is overlooked. The present layout in the new ceramic build­ ing is being re-arranged and the new construction is planned so as to provide for the most efficient coordination of all the work of the College. Not only are the lecture rooms, laboratories, offices, libraries, etc., being arranged according to a definite plan, but we are arranging all the equipment, furniture, etc., in complete detail, giving the lo­ cation of every terminal for water, air, electricity, gas, etc. We are designing the dust exhaust system, the flue installations in the kiln rooms and the hoods for the chemical laboratories. This work has involved a number of conferences with the architects, their en­ gineers, members of the State Planning Commission and the State officials each of whom have questions to ask and suggestions to make, which require decisions. The architects now have all the plans practically completed The money is appropriated and is in this year's budget. We finally got the matter settled, of the amount of money that was to be put into I IIIIII, III this building. $200,000.00 was originally appropriated, but we held out for $300,000.00. The amount finally approved was just a little under $300,000.00. If this had not been forthcoming, our plans for the building would have been wrecked. We also obtained a high priority for the building, so everything is ready to let the contract as soon as the war is over. We are hoping that construction will start this fall. We failed to obtain approval of and on appropriation for the semi-industrial scale building for which we were asking $75,000.00. Recently, however, with the help of the Ceramic Association, we have revived interest so this project and the State Planning Commission is being approached with requests for providing for it. It is highly important that this building be provided and that it be constructed before the main building is started. Otherwise we will be confronted with the problem of finding a place for the operations now carried on in Binns Hall when that building is demolished, to make way for the main building. It will enable us to provide for the rehabilitation of veterans in a kind of work highly adapted to that purpose. It will enable us to give our graduates a year's experience in industrial work before they go into the industry. Most important of all, it will enable us to develop our research work on a semi-industrial scale before turning it over to the industries. That is done now in the plants which is highly unsatisfactory.

The Ceramic Experiment Station The Department of Research, or Ceramic Experiment Station as it is sometimes called, is the one division of the college that has not been adversely affected by the war. On the contrary, it is operating at a peak in all respects. It is at a peak in scope of operations, re­ sults obtained and in the enthusiasm and industriousness of the staff. In fact it is the main factor at the present time, in maintaining the prestige of the college. The staff of the Station consists of five regular employees and five fellowship men with a variable number of part time assistants. The research work is divided into three catagories: (1) the work of the regular staff which is financed by the State (2) the fellow­ ship work which is financed by the industries and which is confidential (3) student thesis research. No private consulting work is done by the members of the Ceramic Experiment Station, but the teaching faculty does a great deal of it. The sum total of all these activities makes a quite respectable research program. We believe that we can no longer be accused as we once were, of not doing our share in ad­ vancing the ceramic science. Monthly progress reports are mailed to the 150 members of the STATE COLLEGE OP CERAMICS, DEAN'S REPORT 31

Ceramic Association each month. These reports cover the work of the regular staff. In addition, confidential fellowship reports are sent each month to the sponsoring companies and patentable material is prepared for patent applications. Another development on bloated clay is being exploited by the sponsoring company at a cost to date of more than $40,000.00. These instances are cited to indicate something about the results we are achieving in our research work.

Survey and Test of the Clays and Shales of New York This project for which a special appropriation was obtained last year, is progressing splendidly. A State car and special assistance by Dr. Henry Leighton of the University of Pittsburgh were provided. The months of June, July, and August, were spent by Dr. Leighton and Professor Dickens, studying the deposits and collecting samples. Altogether we have about 500 samples. Professor Dickens has been engaged the past winter testing these samples and has issued a pro­ gress report on the tests to date. Dr. Leighton has submitted an ex­ tensive report on the geology of the deposits in the western half of New York. During June, July, and August of this year, Dr. Leighton and Professor Dickens will make a similar survey of the eastern half of the State. Eventually a book wTill be published, giving com­ prehensive information on all the deposits of the State. Two years will probably be required to complete this project of the State Geological Survey.

Industrial Fellowships Six industrial fellowships are now operating under the supervision of the Ceramic Experiment Station.

Art Bulletin A very attractive bulletin describing the work of the Ceramic Design Department has been published.

Finances The budgetary situation continues to be excellent. The State has not ruled that the reduction in student enrollment necessitates a re­ trenchment in the budget. On the contrary, most items were increased

Demand for Graduates Numerous requests are being received all the time for Ceramic graduates. We are obliged to answer all requests with the statement, that none are available. 32 ALFRED YEAR BOOK, 1944 -45

The Future With the probability of the war in Europe being over this spring or summer, we feel that we have weathered the storm of war effects and that we will not have to close down as so many ceramic schools have been obliged to do. On the contrary, we are planning to keep our organizbation intact and continue normal, although abbreviated operation. We are planning expansion and betterment for the post­ war period, feeling confident that there will be opportunities for a very substantial uplift in the College in all respects. However, on account of the critical condition that now prevails and the evolu­ tionary changes that are ahead in the affairs of the nation as well as the College, it seems that now is the time for the Board to give thorough consideration to the status of the College, review its policies and objectives and lay down guiding direction for future operation. The writer will give recommendations orally, if requested. This re­ port gives a record of my efforts to carry out the instructions of the Board, given at its last meeting.

REPORT OF THE DEAN OF MEN

(In Full)

To the President of Alfred University: I have very little to report on my work as Dean of Men during the college year 1944-1945. The small number of men enrolled in the two colleges during the war years has considerably reduced the administrative responsibilities of this office as compared with norm­ al times. An attempt has been made to carry on the regular program of activities as far as possible. Although the number of men has been reduced almost to the vanishing point, as compared with former years, many general campus administrative functions which have been tra­ ditionally lodged in this office have been carried on as usual. The Chairmanship of the Committee on Absences, the Chairmanship of the Assembly Program Committee and my responsibilities as adviser to the Kanakadea staff have occupied no small part of my time. My very heavy teaching load this year has made it necessary to curtail some of the activities which have been normally a part of the administrative program of this office. This curtailment has not been serious. It is to be hoped, however, that my teaching load will be lightened next year sufficiently to allow more time for the essential administrative functions. The year has been marked by an absence of serious disciplinary REPORT OF THE DEAN OF MEN 83

problems. In my opinion student morale has been maintained at a high level and relationships between students and faculty have been more friendly and cordial than for many years. I believe that in no small measure this cordiality is due to the establishment of the Stu­ dent Union. This has provided a much wider opportunity for students and faculty to meet on common ground. The Student Union has been an outstanding contribution to our campus life and is very definitely a success. Much credit must go to those members of the faculty and of the student body who have been responsible for its organization and operation. It is my hope that some friend of the University will view this activity as one worthy of particular financial support. The present quarters will need to be enlarged with the return of a normal enrollment. I would personally like to see Bur­ dick Hall torn down and a building erected on the same site which would accommodate the Student Union and which would also pro­ vide rooms for student offices, meetings, etc. The need is great and I believe that such a building could be constructed at a reasonable cost. The next few years will be difficult years in many respects The return of service men to the campus will bring many problems of ad­ justment both for them and for us. I believe that a committee of the faculty should soon begin a consideration of problems revolving around the returning veteran. In conclusion, Mr. President, I wish to express, again, my appre­ ciation of your friendship and counsel through the years. It has meant more to me than I can express in words. It is my hope that you will have many happy years in your retirement from the exacting responsibilities of a college presidency. Respectfully submitted, M. ELLIS DRAKE, Dean of Men May 11, 1945

REPORT OF THE DEAN OF WOMEN

(In Full)

To the President of Alfred University: It is a satisfaction to record in this annual report that there have been more women attending college at Alfred this year than ever before in its history. The total attendance for the year has been two hundred fifty-seven. Of these, one hundred forty-one were taking the Liberal Arts course, fifty-three Nursing, and sixty-three Ceramic Art and Engineering. The Brick, under the supervision of Mrs. Edith Burdett, was at the beginning of the year filled to its capacity of one hundred seven, and it was necessary to use Bartlett, where, under the supervision of Mrs. Lou Hill, fifty girls are living. During the first semester, before the arrival of the twenty-one second-semester nurses, the wo­ men at Bartlett had their meals at The Brick. Since the beginning of the second semester the dining-room in Bartlett has been open. Fifty-four girls have lived in the three sororities. During the year freshman girls have organized a new sorority whose fundamental aim is to make no racial nor religious discrimination. This group hopes to have a residence next year and a request has also been made by the women of the Independent group to have a residence for upperclass women outside of sororities. The difficulty in both cases is that of finding a suitable house. The cooperative house, still under the supervision of Mrs. Madeleine Burdick, housed eighteen girls. Now in its fourth year, this experiment has justified its exist­ ence both from a social and a financial point of view. It is entirely self-supporting and has been able to buy some furniture, eventually to replace the furniture now rented from the fraternity. Living in this house has meant a considerable saving in money for its residents. Other assistance for students needing help has been given to twenty-one different women by work on K.P. in the dormitories and to a number in the newly established Student Union. Sixty-six women have had the benefit of scholarship help during the year, only two failing to attain at any time the required index. Room grants have not been given this year with the exception of three to women who have acted as counselors at The Brick. Due to the absence of many men on campus there have been fewer large social events but the four or five all-college dances have been for that reason more welcome. The departmental clubs have carried on their usual activities, including French Week, a Pan American celebration by the Spanish Club, and a Latin banquet. The Alfred Christian Fellowship music on Sunday afternoons and the evening discussions planned by them have been well attended. So­ cial Hall has been open for these programs and for all-student use on Saturday nights, and for many special meetings and social occasions. There have been no severe illnesses or accidents during the year and no serious problems of discipline. The counseling program has been carried on as usual. There have been an increased number of special permissions requested due to the presence at home or on campus of relatives or frends on furlough. However, scholarship does not seem to have been radically affected. The women attending the Ag-Tech School as well as those of the Colleges have been under REPORT OF THE DEAN OF WOMEN 35 the general supervision of this office. They have been housed in two dormitories and a few of them in Bartlett. The cadet nurses at the Olean and Corning Hospitals have been under the supervision of Mrs. Harvey, the director of nurses, and the dean of women. Rules for their conduct in the hospital were made in conference with the superintendents of the two hospitals. Two college women have been married during the year to men in service and have left college for the time being to be with their husbands. Two women left college the second semester to join the WACS. During the summer semester for nurses the women taking that course will be housed at Klan Alpine. The Brick will be used for women attending the six weeks summer session. As this is the last annual report I shall submit to you, Mr. Presi­ dent, I want to express my great appreciation of the privilege it has been to work with you for Alfred University and to wish for you a long, happy, and not too busy retirement.

Respectfully submitted,

DORA K. DEGEN, Dean of Women May 10, 1945

Surprisingly, the decrease in enrollment has not lessened our work to any appreciable extent because of numerous new duties. The demand for transcripts for graduates and former students, particularly for the armed forces, has continued at the high level of the past few years. During the year, the office has brought up to date the statistical information about the distribution of grades, both for individual faculty members and for the colleges as a whole, thus completing to date, a study which was begun in 1916. One of the problems with which we have already been faced and which is going to become much larger and more difficult in the future is the evaluation for college credit of work done by members of the armed forces in connection with their regular duties and while study­ ing under the "United States Armed Forces Institute," and in other schools for special training. In many accredited colleges and univer­ sities also, special instruction by correspondence and in residence has been given to members of the armed forces for which credit will be asked. In all, there are over 400 of these special service schools and courses. A committee from the American Council of Education has already made a very inclusive study of these and has recommended the amount of credit (if any) to be allowed. Alfred must decide how much of this type of work it can and will accept towards a degree. This applies particularly to the College of Ceramics where a rigid curriculum requirement now exists. Dean Whitford and the Registrar, as the Committee on Degrees for the College of Liberal Arts, have determined the amount of credit it

to be allowed in that college for the subjects taught in the three terras of Basic Engineering A.S.T.P. so as to conform both to the require­ ments of the Regents and also to the credit allowed by other colleges and universities which gave equivalent courses. The Registrar attended the annual meeting of the Middle States Association of Collegiate Registrars, held in New York last fall. He had planned to attend the usual yearly convention of the Association of Collegiate Registrars this spring but it was cancelled because of travel conditions. The Registrar has attended most of these annual meetings since 1916 and expects to attend again in 1946. At this time, when President Norwood is retiring, the Registrar and his staff wish to acknowledge the help and inspiration he has given them during his entire administration. Our very best wishes, go to him for many happy and fruitful years of service as President Emeritus. To all the officers of the administration and to the faculty mem­ bers, the office of the Registrar wishes to acknowledge its appreciation of their promptness and cooperation. Respectfully submitted, WALDO A. TITSWORTH, Registrar

REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN

(In Full)

To the President of Alfred University: As librarian of the Alfred University Library, I submit the fol­ lowing report for the year 1944-1945: I. STATISTICS. A. Circulation (April 1, 1944, to March 31, 1945) General works, including bound periodicals 265 Philosophy 315 Religion 339 Social Sciences 672 Language 28 Pure Science 504 Applied Science 411 Fine Arts 855 Literature (except fiction) 1507 History 516 Travel 396 Biography 626 Current Periodicals 1460 Fiction 4303 Juveniles 1925 Reserved Books 8325 Total 22,547 B. Accessions. Volumes added by purchase 345 Volumes added by gift 492 Total 837 Total accession number as of April 1 64,323 II. NOTES ON ACTIVITIES. I in ii in mil A. The Circulation The effects of the decreased enrollment due to the war were re­ flected in the circulation figures for the year ending April 1. The home circulation for this twelve-month period was the lowest in many years, being 2,624 less than the previous year, and 28,830 less than the year before that. It is interesting to note, however, that in spite of the decrease in home circulation, there was an increase of 2,105 in the use of reserved books over that of the previous year, and a de­ crease of but 2,004 from that of 1942-43, which was close to normal.

B. Gifts To The Library Again this year, the number of volumes added to our collection by gift exceeds the number added by purchase, due as last year to the curtailed appropriations and to the generosity of friends of the university. Among the donors of large numbers of books during the past year are the following: Mrs. George Openhym, Albert A. Becker, Rev. Carl H. Ellicott, the University of Michigan Library, Professor Lelia E. Tupper, Former Chaplain William H. Genn6 and Mrs. Genne, Dr. T. H. Dunkelberger, the New York State Department of Social Welfare, the United States Museum, and the Carnegie Institution of Washington. To these and to the many who have made smaller gifts to the library, we are gratefully indebted.

C. Reorganization The general reorganization program is progressing steadily, though in a manner much less evident to the public, for our work on this project is now confined almost entirely to the reclassification and recataloging of books that were in the library previous to January 1, 1943. This work will continue until all books are catalogued by the same system.

D. Allocation of Funds Ever since coming to Alfred, we have felt the necessity of mak­ ing definite allocation of library funds for the use of the several teach­ ing departments on the campus, but have hesitated inaugurating the policy in the face of decreasing and uncertain budgets. This year, however, on the suggestion of the Library Committee, who felt that a definite allocation, although small, would be preferable, the system was begun. With the help of a sub-committee of the Library Com­ mittee, we made a study of the expenditures of the library and the needs of the departments, and established definite department alloca­ tions. The hearty response of the chairman of the various depart- REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN 43 ments indicates that the policy meets with general approval. It will be continued, and a constant study will be made, with the assistance of the Library Committee, to try to secure a fair and just allocation to each department, based upon its special needs, the use made of its books, and the relative cost of books in the several fields.

E. Vertical File In the past year, we instituted a Vertical File for the classifica­ tion of pamphlets and clippings. This is to be a permanent file, dis­ tinct from the more temporary War Information File. Several hun­ dred items have already been classified and made available for general use.

F. Physical Changes Few changes were made in the physical plant during the year. Two new stacks were placed in the Annex in South Hall, which en­ abled us to get all the books there onto shelves, but as the books are placed four deep on some of the stacks, we need still more stacks to make the books accessible. Two new bulletin boards were placed on the walls of the entranceway, greatly improving our facilities for display. Early in the year a portrait of the late Dr. Daniel Lewis, '69, was hung in the Reading Room, in recognition of the part played by Dr. Lewis in the organization of the central library in 1887.

G. Personal Both the librarian and the assistant librarian attended the 3-day convention of the New York State Library Association held in Ro­ chester on September 15-17. There were many interesting and in­ structive discussions, but it was a disappointment that the meetings of the College library section did not materialize. During the year, the librarian addressed the local Amandine Club, the Liberal Arts Class in Our Changing World, the Forum Class of the S. D. B. Church, the Rotary Club of Hornell, and the Rotary Club of Wellsville. We have also conducted, somewhat irregularly, a column of book discussion in the Alfred Sun under the heading "The Browsing Corner".

Respectfully submitted, C. M. MITCHELL, Librarian May 11, 1945 REPORT OF THE CHAPLAIN

( Excerpts ) To the President of Alfred University: I have the honor to make this report of the Chaplain for the year 1944-1945: I. The University Church The Chaplain preached his first sermon here on July 30th, 1944, and began his duties as Minister of the University Church on Sunday, September 17th. He attended the Winter Conference of the Student Christian Movement, returned to a 50th Anniversary Celebration of his former church in Grafton, Massachusetts, and preached at Sage Chapel, Cornell University. The pulpit was occupied on these Sun­ days, respectively, by Dean Ahva J. C. Bond, Mr. Ray Sweetman, and a group of four students (Helen Dreher '45, Doris Hill '45, Gordon Swanson '45, and Bradley Barger '46) who, according to all reports, presented one of the most meaningful services of the year. On two occasions the Chaplain has welcomed guests to the pulpit: on March 4th, Rev. Samuel Blizzard, Jr., assistant in Rural Sociology at Cornell and representing the Student Volunteer Movement, preached the ser­ mon and on April 29th, the sermon was given by Rabbi Jerome Malino of Danbury, Connecticut, Particularly in view of the reduced enrollment, participation in Sunday morning worship throughout the year has been very good with 175-200 usually in attendance. Several special services merit mention: the Christmas Candlelight Service by the Choir of 60 voices on Sunday night, December 10th, and V-E Services on May 8, in co-operation with Pastor Everett T. Harris and Dean Ahva J. C. Bond, drew more than a capacity congregation; the Memorial Ser­ vice for President Roosevelt on April 13th, and the Spring Concert by the Choir on Sunday evening, May 6th, were both attended by 300 people; and one of the richest services of the year was the Thurs­ day evening Communion in Holy Week. II. Mid-Week Chapel The experiment with a single weekly Chapel Service on Wednes­ days at noon has proved successful. Rarely have there been fewer than 75 attending and on occasion there have been as many as a hundred. The most remarkable feature of the Chapel has been the consistent attendance. The brief, 20-minute services have been held on every Wednesday of the school year with the exception of exami­ nation periods. The Chaplain has given a short, 10-minute meditation at every service except that of April 25th, when Rev. William Semple of Canisteo spoke in the absence of the Chaplain, and that of May 16th, REPORT OP THE CHAPLAIN 4n when Mr. Ralla Ram, Student Christian Movement Secretary for India, Burma and Ceylon, was a campus guest The Chapel has been greatly enriched by a Choir of nine voices under the direction of Mrs. S. Ray Scholes. The University has recog­ nized their contribution by purchasing vestments for the singers and for the Chapel pianist.

III. Alfred Christian Fellowship This organization, under the capable leadership of Helen Dreher '45, and an excellent Cabinet, has continued to exercise its unique function in the life of the University. It has provided the traditional Sunday Afternoon Music Hour from 2-3 and a superior program of Forums, Firesides and Speakers on Sunday evenings. Attendance at these meetings was consistenly high (60-100) until Rush Week early in the spring. It dropped decisively then for several weeks but has since climbed steadily again. More than a hundred students have signed up for the May Outing and Retreat on May 20th.

IV. Student Counselling This has consumed a far greater portion of the Chaplain's time than he had anticipated and, for better or worse, he has tried to give himself freely and, whenever possible, immediately to students who have come to his office or home for such a specific purpose. No record has been kept of these student interviews but it is safe to say that they have required at least an average of five hours a week. So far from complaining, the Chaplain feels that this is the most rewarding area of his work; it is his constant prayer that the students who come also find it so.

V. Teaching The Chaplain has carried five hours of regular teaching through­ out the year—three in Sociology (Basic) and two in Religion (Old Testament). During the second semester he has conducted a Tutorial in New Testament (two hours). The Chaplain mentions with appreciation the help of his wife, who has entertained numbers of students at tea and in the evening, and has served more than a hundred individual meals to students. The Chaplain is greatly indebted to former-Chaplain Genne for his excellent work here and for his personal help last summer; and to President J. Nelson Norwood and Dean Alfred E. Whitford for time they have given him so freely and advice they have given him so wisely. REPORT OF THE DEAN, SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY ( Excerpts ) To the President of Alfred University: This report of the dean of the School of Theology to the President of Alfred University and to the Board of Managers marks the com­ pletion of ten full years of service to the University and to the Seventh Day Baptist denomination as dean and instructor. During these years I have had always the support of the Board of Managers, and the constant and unfailing support of the President. I shall miss the wise guidance of the President, and express here the hope that he will be retained on the Board of Managers.

Instruction The usual schedule of classes has been carried throughout the year by the regular teachers, Dr. Edgar D. Van Horn and Dr. Walter L. Greene, on part time as in the past, and the dean, who carries a full teaching load. Dr. Ben R. Crandall and Dr. George B. Shaw, both of whom teach on alternate years, did not have classes this year. We were fortunate in having the assistance of Rev. Everett T. Harris, Rev. Albert N. Rogers and Rev. Harley Sutton. These men did splendid service in the fields of pastoral theology and religious edu­ cation. Three of our students took a course of study in the Agricul­ tural and Technical Institute. The directors of that school gave fine cooperation in working out a general survey course calculated to be useful to the country pastor. The instructor who taught the course also took a great deal of interest in making the work valuable to the theological student. We hope hereafter each student of the School of Theology will take this course. Students have come under the tuition of two professors in the College of Liberal Arts. We did not have this year the usual lectures given by a Seventh Day Baptist minister. Rev. Leslie O. Greene was invited to come to Alfred for this service but he was unable to be with us this year, but promised to try to do so next fall.

Students Throughout the year we have had four degree students. One stu­ dent who holds a divinity degree started in with us in the fall, but later joined the Navy as a chaplain. Only two of these students are Seventh Day Baptists. They will graduate this year, along with an­ other who did part of his work here but who finished elsewhere. We expect the other two student, a Wesleyan Methodist and a Free Methodist, will be with us again next year. We know of but two REPORT OF THE DEAN OF SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY 47

Seventh Day Baptists who expect to enter next fall. Both will re­ ceive their college degree from Salem College this month. The dean had ten college students in his class in "A Faith for To­ day," which ran during the two semesters. He enjoyed the work with them, and plans to offer the same course next year. Ordinations Within the year four young men, graduates of the School of Theology, have been ordained to the Gospel Ministry. It has been the privilege of the dean to attend and participate in all these services. He has thus far assisted at the service of ordination for every one who has graduated since 1938, the date of the first ordination service since he became dean.

Extra-Curricular Activities of the Students All the regular theological students have served churches during the year. Three students attended the Inter-Seminary Conference of the Middle Atlantic Area at Scranton, Pa., last October. The two Seventh Day Baptist students visited our denominational headquarters at Plainfield, N. J., in May, inspecting the Tract Board rooms, the Publishing Plant, and the Historical Society rooms. Our two resident seniors and the dean prepared the material for the Sabbath Rally Day supplement to the Sabbath Recorder.

Finances By cutting the cloth according to the pattern we have completed another year with a balanced budget. Contributions to the ministerial retirement fund have been made this year both by faculty members and by the treasurer. More and Better Ministers A general dearth of ministers affects Seventh Day Baptists as it does other denominations. The greatest need of the School of The­ ology just now, if it is to serve the denomination adequately, is more students. For this need at present we have no answer. In the interest of better preparation on the part of our young men for work in the denomination the Commission of the General Conference is concerned that every student for the ministry shall get at least a major part of his training at Alfred. We believe the Commission, and all who are interested in the future of the denomination, are justified in this in­ sistence. As a matter of fact during the last several years practically all of our young men entering the ministry are graduates of Alfred School of Theology. We need more of them. Thus trained they get the fundamentals of our own faith along with a broad training in all that pertains to a successful Christian ministry in the Seventh Day Baptist denomination. There is a movement on foot just now to bring to Alfred in the not distant future a young man from Jamaica and one from New Zealand for training for the ministry. We shall do what we can to provide courses of study that will meet the needs of these students. Meanwhile, we stress the importance of recruiting ministers in our own American churches, so that capable leadership in our schools and boards shall be provided, as well as copetent pastors and effective- evangelists for our churches and waiting field ripe for the harvest.

REPORT OR THE DIRECTOR OF THE BUREAU OF APPOINT­

MENTS COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS

(Excerpts) To the President of Alfred University: I hereby submit my Annual Report as Director of the Bureau of Appointments for the year 1944-1945. In the class of 19^5 there are seven seniors preparing for teaching. Otherwise, this year seems to be a, repetition of last year. If anything, the shortage of teachers is accentuated Calls for members of the graduating class came as early as last December and since then inquiries have been coming in at a rate of about one hundred per month. Those of our alumni who wanted to change jobs had no difficulty at all in "bettering themselves" this year. The Bureau of Appointments at Alfred University has been in corrsepondence with virtually every secondary school in the State. When more or less normal times return, it will thus be relatively easy for us to cir­ culate our candidates. The volume of business transacted in the Bureau of Appointments has exceeded even that of last year. The teachers' salaries continue to rise, especially those of the beginning teachers. The average salary of the beginning teachers placed this year is approximately $1800. There practically is no longer any fixed salary scale for either beginning teachers or ex­ perienced teachers.

REPORT OF THE COUNSELOR TO PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS

(Excerpts) To the President of Alfred University: In comparison with the 12 months ending with April, 1944, the period since then has shown a substantial increase in the volume of REPORT OP THE COUNSELOR TO PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS 49 prospective student work. As a matter of fact, quantity, though not particular character, seems at least up to normal.

This development is attributable in considerable measure to ac­ tivities, especially correspondence, involving service men who con­ template entrance or re-entrance following discharge. These men (and a tew women) range all the way from complete strangers who want to start college to former students who write largely for senti­ mental reasons. Among them a large number result directly from the mailing of the Veterans' Education bulletin to former college stu­ dents, former Ag-Tech students, ASTP men. and men who studied under Ag-Tech as Naval air cadets. Gratifying numbers of men from the last three groups have expressed interest in coming back as stu­ dents in Liberal Arts and in Ceramics. Thus the cost of including these three categories seems abundantly justified. The Counselor's work, as distinguished from the other functions of the office, has been so nearly the same as in recent years as to warrant no elaborate discription. Salient features, however, are noted thus:

PUBLICATIONS: Business Bulletin. Prenared by Mr. Whitcraft In collaboration with this office. Dated April, 1944; Laboratory Tech­ nology Bulletin.. Prepared by this office in consultation with Dr. Bur­ dick. Dated Feb. 1, 1944; Veterans' Education Bulletin. Prepared by the Adviser on Veteran's Education. Distributed by this office. Eight pages, illustrated. Two editions, both dated Nov. 1944, of 4,000 and 3,000 copies respectively. About 1,500 copies left. The most widely distributed and generally commended publication ever handled by this office.

VARIED ACTIVITIES: Correspondence. About 3,800 typed letters of which about one-third were dictated. Interviews. The Coun­ selor had one three-day series in New York in March this year and in early June. Personnel. Last September, Miss Mildred Vars resigned and was replaced by Miss Dorrit V. Last. Otherwise the office staff remains the same as last year.

CURRENT ENROLLMENT PROSPECTS: At this season figures are always too small to provide dependable grounds for prophecy. It is to be noted, however, that this year's numbers are, in nearly every instance, below those of last year.

Recommendations

1. As at various times in the past, the Counselor recommends the employment at the earliest opportunity of an experienced public ill lit 101II relations director who can devote a major portion of his efforts to this function. 2. The fiscal basis upon which this office operates needs careful reconsideration in relation to effective functioning of the office and therefore to the total welfare of the institution. 3. The many personnel efforts of the University, including the various functions of this combined office, should be more closely integrated and co-ordinated. Even with present personnel consider­ able improvements could be effected, but really satisfactory results must await the appointment of an adequately trained personnel director. 4. Prospective increases in enrollment of veterans call for care­ ful but prompt consideration with regard to such matters as: (a) Acceptance while in service to take effect as soon as feasible after discharge, whenever that may be; (b) Acceptance of new high-school graduates who anticipate immediate entrance into service but want to start here as soon as possible after discharge; (c) Entrance under really favorable circumstances in February and July, and, if possible, oftener so as to reduce to the minimum the waiting period between discharge and initiation of students; (d) Some sort of refresher or reorientation arrangements for those who feel or show the need of them; (e) Establishment, on an optional basis, of round-the-calendar study opportunities for those who want them. 5. Inquiries from prospective students and high-school advisers as well as published announcements from other colleges give occasion for considering carefully the meeting of additional professional or occupational objectives. Some of these, such as the preparation of church secretaries, call for little more than regrouping and pointing up existing courses. Some, such as the preparation of ready-to-work laboratory tech­ nologists, call for several new courses, the employment of at least one additional staff member, and the purchase of additional equip­ ment. These changes would, however, constitute only complements to a total program of which at least three quarters is already avail­ able. Others would require more ambitious developments. Among these, plastics and related fields such as synthetic rubber warrant particularly cordial consideration. Probably because of public ex­ aggerations of the relationships between plastics and ceramics, in­ creasingly numerous inquiries on preparation for work in plastics are coming to this office. As yet very little preparation for the field is available anywhere in the country. The few institutions that are REPORT OF THE COUNSELOR TO PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS 51 doing even a bit are receiving wide attention. The university that establishes a program in synthetics comparable to Alfred's in ceramic engineering should be opening a gold mine with regard to both pub­ licity and enrollments, for the synthetics are obviously now only in the infancy of a tremendous development. Because these problems have far-reaching ramifications, it seems appropriate for a Counselor to Prospective Students or Adviser on Veterans' Education only to raise them and to suggest that they be assigned to a committee.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF THE SUMMER SCHOOL

(Excerpts) To the President of Alfred University: The 1944 Summer School followed much the same pattern as the sessions in 1942 and 1943. The enrollment in 1944 was somewhat smaller than in the preceding year but a substantial profit was realized. Due to the financial problems facing the University during the war years the entire profits of the Summer School for several years have been turned over to the University Treasurer for general university purposes and this was done again in 1944. A particular problem of administration during the war period has been that of making decisions with reference to the courses to be actually taught. An effort has been made to provide all possible opportunities for students doing summer school work but the absence of sufficient demand has rather narrowly limited our offerings This has also meant a reduction in the size of the teaching staff. While the administration has reserved the right of determining the courses actually to be taught every member of the staff who has been em­ ployed has received a regular salary for his work. The fact that we have been able to continue the Summer School during the war years, to pay full salaries and to show a substantial surplus has been the basis for much satisfaction. In my opinion the time is near at hand when Summer School salaries must be increased to a point more nearly comparable to those paid in other colleges and it is my hope that a beginning can be made in this matter in 1945. There was a considerable increase in the 1944 Summer School in the number of students taking work in ceramic art. In spite of the fact that it was necessary for us to limit our offerings in graduate courses in Education to two in number, we had a good enrollment of students working for the master's degree. The 1944 session apparent­ ly marked the low point for offerings in Education and it is expected i in itm i that in 1945 we can increase the number of courses to be taught as well as the number of instructors. I am confident that there are ex­ cellent opportunities for expansion in this field in future years and present plans look forward to such a widening of opportunities as rapidly as possible. A small group of students in both ceramic engineering and liberal arts began their college work with the 1944 session.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF NURSING

(Excerpts ) To the President of Alfred University: I submit herewith the second annual report of the department of nursing. Since the founding of this department there has been constant growth and change. At present there are 81 student nurses enrolled, all of whom are members of the United States Cadet Corps. Pour classes have been admitted and the following shows how this number is divided: Date Admitted Number Admitted Still Enrolled in School Sept. 2, 1943 31 15 Jan. 4, 1944 25 18 Sept. 18, 1944 32 28 Feb. 6, 1945 22 21 The Sept. 2, 1943 and Jan. 4, 1944 classes have received their caps and have left Alfred to complete their training in affiliated hos­ pitals. The following shows the number of students at each institu­ tion: Alfred Olean General Corning Hospital Mt. Morris Hospital Tuberculosis Hospital 49 22 11 5 On June 8, 1945, the Sept. 1944 class will be capped and will start its affiliation in either Corning Hospital or Olean General Hospital. In June, also, the advanced classes will begin their experiences in Psychiatric Nursing at the Willard State Hospital and Pediatric Nursing at the Philadelphia Children Hospital. Plans are being made for the Senior Cadet Period which is the last six months of the third year in training. In order to carry out more cooperatively the program for the training of nurses both on the campus and in the affiliated hospitals the following committees within the department of nursing in Alfred University were appointed on Nov. 24, 1944, by Dean Alfred E. Whit- ford: Student Regulations and Social Life REPORT OP THE DIRECTOR OF NURSING 53

Preclinical Instruction Admissions Library Nursing Procedures Student Health Clinical Teaching Most of these committees have been quite active since their formation. Miss Muriel Kennedy was appointed Clinical Instructor at the Corning Hospital and Miss Elizabeth Van Horn was appointed Clinical Instructor at the Olean General Hospital. I wish to express my deep appreciation for the splendid coopera­ tion and support this department and its Director have received from all administrative officers and faculty members of Alfred University

REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION MEN (Excerpts) To the President of Alfred University: During the past year the activities for men in the Department of Physical Education have been greatly increased in comparison with the year 1943-44. The absence of the soldiers on campus the past year permitted more attention to be given to the regularly enrolled students. The percentage of students participating both in physical education classes and intramurals has been the highest it has ever been.

Physical Education The number of men enrolled in classes has varied. At the start of the year 58 men were enrolled, and at the close of the second semester the number has been reduced to 44. The call to service has been the cause of this decrease.

Intramurals A very active program in intramural sports has been conducted this year. During the fall, competition was carried on in touch foot­ ball, tennis, cross country and soccer. The touch football was the most popular with many of the student body turning out to watch the games. The series of games between the Ag-Tech and the University were the most popular. During the winter eight teams participated in a basketball league representing practically all of the men on campus. Intramural com­ petition was also offered in table tennis, volleyball, badminton and wrestling. During the spring softball was the major activity with a series of games between the two naturally competitive groups, the Ag- Tech Institute and the University. Tennis also proved popular with many men participating in the singles, doubles, and mixed doubles tournaments.

Intercollegiate Sports Alfred University did not sponsor intercollegiate sports again this year. However, to satisfy the needs of the more accomplished basketball players, games were arranged with Church league teams in Hornell and Alfred succeeded in winning five of the six games arranged. At the close of the season the Alfred team was entered in a town team tournament held in the Hornell Y. M. C. A. Alfred won all of the preliminary games but lost the final game to the Hor­ nell Y. M. C. A. senior team. It has been planned to start regular intercollegiate activities on a small scale again next year. A tentative basketball schedule has been arranged of approximately twelve games. The extent of schedul­ ing in other sports will be determined by the number of men students matriculating at Alfred next fall.

WOMEN (Excerpts) The Department of Physical Education for women has attempted to carry on the usual program in all physical education activities. The absence of Miss Lavinia Creighton has had its effect and it has been difficult to maintain the interest of the students in all of their activities due to lack of trained leadership. The regular class program has been very successful with the largest enrollment of freshmen and sophomores the Department has ever had. Mrs. Albert Werth, a graduate assistant, and Miss Ann Mitchell, a junior, acting as assistants in the department have done an excellent piece of work in conducting the women's classes. They have been under the supervision of the acting Director of the Depart­ ment.

The Women's Athletic Governing Board has promoted a partic­ ularly active program in basketball, volleyball, and fencing. The re­ maining sports on the intramural program have suffered from lack of promotion, and, therefore, a decrease in student interest in these particular activities.

Respectfully submitted. ALICE C. McDERMONT, R.N. May 10, 1945 Superintendent REPORT OF THE NEW YORK STATE AGRICULTURAL AND TECHNICAL INSTITNTE (Excerpts) To the President of Alfred University: The Institute has enjoyed a fairly successful year in spite of war-time restrictions in both students and physical equipment. With an encouraging increase in enrollment and the inauguration of new courses which have taken place in the past few months, the way back after the war should not be too difficult Enrollment Registration this year numbered 113 students. This more than doubled the number recorded last year—the lowest registration since 1936. This increase has been due to two main factors: One is the success of the recently organized course in Laboratory Technology under the direction of George D. Gregory. Over forty girls have en­ rolled in this course during the current year. A second factor is the increased registration of veterans. The Institute is doing its part in the training and rehabilitation of these returned soldiers. During the past year twenty have attended the Institute and eight others have already been accepted for entrance in September. We are working in close cooperation with the Vet­ erans' Administration in Batavia. Off-Campus Instruction The Institute has been operating a VEND No. 1 War Training Program since October 7, 1940. The program terminated April 30, 1945, with the expiration of Federal Funds. During the four and one-half years it functioned 2,844 individuals were trained in one of the many fields in which instruction was offered. On-campus instruc­ tion included welding, machine shop, radio, refrigeration, electronics. AGRICULTURAL, TECHNICAL INSTITUTE REPORT 57 drafting and auto mechanics. The off-campus training was carried on mainly as supplementary instruction cooperating with industry. The cooperation and good will stimulated by this program between the Institute and companies such as Worthington Pump at Wellsville, Acme Electric at Cuba, Corning Glass at Corning, and Porcelain In­ sulator at Lima, should be most beneficial in the ensuing years. Since April 9, three members of the staff have been conducting a special course for school bus drivers. The Food Production War Training Program has been operated in Hornell and Alfred during the past winter. This phase of the work has included the repair, maintenance and construction cf farm ma­ chinery. This program terminated May 30, 1945. The primary pur­ pose of the program was to repair and construct machinery to help off-set the serious shortage of farm machinery and other equipment necessary for the production of essential war foods. During the past ten months two members of the staff have been cooperating with Cornell University Extension Services. This work consists of giving off-campus demonstrations and lectures on the re­ pair and maintenance of farm equipment. This instruction was car- ried on in Allegany, Livingston, Wyoming and Cattaraugus Counties. Two of the four new buildings planned for the Institute's post­ war expansion are included in the State Budget for the current year. Funds in the amount of $357,000 for an industrial building and $74,- 000 for a farm machinery building have been approved by both the Governor and the Legislature. The industrial building will be located between Bartlett Dormitory and Lambda Chi Fraternity. The farm machinery building will be a one-story affair constructed of brick to match the present architecture, and located across from the State Farm Barn. It will be 90' x 45' in size and will include class room, office, small laboratory for precision work, storage, model storage, lavatories, boiler room and paint room. We are beginning to receive a small quantity of surplus army material. So far this has consisted of small items such as tools, air plane motors and the like. Applications and requests have been sub­ mitted to the various State and Federal agencies for additional equip­ ment in all the fields served by the Agricultural and Technical In­ stitute. It is expected that we shall share liberally in some of the larger pieces of equipment such as bulldozers, jeeps, trucks, elec­ trical and photographic equipment and machine shop equipment. State Farm Eugene Harris, who has been superintendent of the State Farm for the past four years, left our employment April first to take charge of his own farm. In his stead we engaged Byron Bennett, who gradu- ated from the Institute in 1934 and former owner of an outstanding dairy herd. The farm is continuing a complete program of soil conservation including diversion ditches where needed and the planting of crops on alternating contour strips. We are enlarging the dairy herd from 30 milkers to fifty as newly purchased animals from high-record ancestors are coming into production. The artificial hay drier, mentioned in last year's report, was com­ pleted and proved highly successful. The farm has been increased this year by the purchase of 80 acres, to provide forage and food for the rapidly expanding dairy herd. Reforestation of the farm lands has been undertaken. Twenty- five acres have already been planted and 28 acres are still awaiting it. It is planned to use 10,000 trees per year. Housing The increased registration of young women caused a somewhat critical housing situation until it was decided to open a cooperative house, where women attending the Institute could live under the same plan as that adopted by the Liberal Arts College. For this pur­ pose, Kappa Delta House, owned by one of the Institute fraternities, was secured and placed under the supervision of Mrs. Paul B. Orvis. The plan was successful from the start; and so great has been the demand for accommodations that Rogers Annex, across the street, was also engaged with Mrs. Poul Titsworth acting as house mother. The services of Mrs. Dora K. Degen, Dean of Women, have been of inestimable value to us in this undertaking, and we are grateful for her wise counsel and continued interest in our women. The Institute has cooperated this year with the Student Union which maintains a lounge room and snack bar at Burdick Hall. The dairy sales room equipment was moved over to the Union to furnish milk shakes and ice cream to be found on their menu.

Curricula For the past two years the Institute has sponsored six-month emergency courses in the various fields of instruction. This plan will be terminated at the end of the present semester, and ,we will return to our regular two-year program on July 1, with a schedule for registration and vacations paralleling that of the University. During the past months several members of the staff have been cooperating with Cornell University and officials of the G. L. F. in planning a two-year course in Frosted Foods Industries. An exten­ sive survey conducted after consultation with manufacturers of this equipment, reveals that this phase of work will receive great impetus AGRICULTURAL, TECHNICAL INSTITUTE REPORT 59 in the post-war era. With the courses in Agriculture and Refrigera­ tion already set up, the Institute appears to be ideally fitted to offer work in this field. Student Association Incorporation A step to strengthen and coordinate our student activities by becoming incorporated under the lawTs of the State of New York has long been contemplated and during the past year this step has been completed. The move adds perpetuity and continuity; and safe­ guards the assets of the organization. The directors of the Corpora­ tion, the majority of whom are members of the faculty, have control of its affairs. The name of this organization is: The Alfred Agricul­ tural and Technical Institute Student Association, Incorporated. June first marks the second year that the school has been operating in the absence of Director Orvis. During this time the In­ stitute has appreciated the loyal support of Dr. J. Nelson Norwood. This interval has been filled with many problems and adjustments caused by the war—not the least of these being reduced registration, a constantly changing faculty, scarcity of labor at the farm and in­ ability to procure supplies and replacements. But with the end of the conflict in Europe, the return of veterans and increased registra­ tion, we believe we are not too optimistic in saying that the worst} is over and that we may look forward to the building of a larger and better Institute with an ever increasing sphere of usefulness to the youth of Western New York.

HEINRICH RIES presented by Dean Major E. Holmes. Mr. President: We have as our guest today an eminent scientist who has rendered services of outstanding distinction to the ceramic interests of America. This Institution can take justifiable pride in being the agency whereby recognition of those services is to be ex­ tended by conferring on him an honorary degree. He was born at Brooklyn, New York, in 1871. He was educated at Columbia University and the University of Berlin, Columbia con­ ferring on him the degrees of Ph.B., A.M., and Ph.D. He joined the staff of Cornell University in 1898 rising to the position of Head of the Department of Geology in 1914 and filling that position until his retirement in 1939. He was a great teacher, an inspiration to his students, and a model for his colleagues. However, teaching alone could not provide an adequate outlet for his boundless energy and enthusiasm. Supplementary activities of many kinds have engaged his attention throughout his life, and they have yielded distinguished results. His geological survey work covered the larger part of the eastern half of the United States and Canada. He has been engaged for this work by the State of New York, Maryland, Alabama, Michigan, New Jersey, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin and Kentucky. His reports on these surveys are standard reference publications throughout the land. HONORARY DEGREES 63

He served as a delegate from Columbia University and Cornell University to the International Geological Congress in Russia, France, Mexico, Canada, and the United States between the years of 1897 and 1933. He served on the jury on awards at the Cotton States Ex­ position in 1895, the Pan-American Exposition in 1901, and the Louisiana Purchase Exposition in 1904. He is a member of four Greek letter honorary societies, a mem­ ber of six scientific societies, an honorary member of six other so­ cieties, and a life member of three others, these societies being the largest and most important societies of this kind in this country. He was also one of that small group of far-seeing, courageous scientists, including Dr. Binns, who founded the American Ceramic Society in 1895. That Society has honored him by making him a charter mem­ ber and honorary life member. He was elected vice president of the American Ceramic Society in 1903 and was elected president in 1910. He served the Geological Society of America as its vice president in 1925 and as its president in 1929. He has also filled high positions in the American Institute of Mining Engineers and the American Foundrymen's Association. The American Foundrymen's Association awarded him the Seaman Gold Medal in 1936 for research in foundry sands. His contributions to our ceramic literature are monumental. He is the author of over two hundred publications. Included in this list are a number of text books and reference books which are the final authority and the standard texts in their fields. Buttressing these material achievements is the rare combination of human qualities that has won for him a host of loyal friends. Un­ selfish devotion to his profession, strict observance of professional ethics, an inspiring personality, combined with his distinguished sci­ entific achievements, have won an everlasting place for him in the minds and hearts of the members of his profession. Mr. President, I present for the honorary degree of Doctor of Science, Heinrich Ries.

President Norwood said: Native of the Empire State, educated at Columbia University, eminent scientist, life-long inspiring teacher rising to the headship of Cornell's Department of Geology, leader in research, delegate to inter­ national scientific congresses, one of the founders, a past president, and long-time supporter of the American Ceramic Society, prolific writer in the ceramic field, loyal friend, Alfred University recognizes these qualities and achievements and proudly enrolls you in the select company of her adopted sons. Therefore, by authority of the Trustees of Alfred University, I admit you, Heinrich Ries, to the degree of Doctor of Science, honoris causa, in this University with all the rights, privileges and obligations thereunto appertaining, and in token thereof, I cause you to be in­ vested with the appropriate hood of this degree and present you with this diploma.

WILLIAM KINGSLAND MACY presented by Dean M. Ellis Drake. Mr. President: It is with pleasure that I nominate our Founders' Day guest and speaker for an honorary degree from Alfred University. Mr, Macy is a native son of the State of New York, having been born in New York City and having been a life-long resident of Islip, Suffolk County. He prepared for college at Groton School and studied at Harvard University from which he received the A.B. degree. After graduation from college he entered business, became president of the Union Pacific Tea Company, and for several years was a partner in a New York brokerage firm. He is a trustee and director of banks and other business enterprises. Since 1925 he has been active in State and National politics and has long been a recognized leader in the Republican Party. He has been Chairman of the Suffolk County Republican Committee for nearly two decades. For four years, from 1930 to 1934, he was Chairman of the New York State Republican Committee and during this period of leadership advocated a liberal and forward-looking program. As State Chairman he was largely responsible for forcing a legislative investi­ gation of the government of New York City which resulted in the resignation of the mayor and the famous Seabury Inquiry with its revelations of municipal corruption. He has been a delegate to State and National Republican Conventions for twenty years, the permanent Chairman of one of the New York State Conventions and the Chair- man of the New York Delegation to one of the National Conventions. In 1938 he was a delegate to the New York State Constitutional Con­ vention where he rendered valuable service. He has long been a devoted friend of education and in 1941 he was elected a member of the Board of Regents of The University of the State of New York. As a successful business executive, courageous political leader, and friend of education he is well deserving of the honor which Alfred University confers upon him today. Mr. President, it is an honor to present the Honorable William Kingsland Macy for the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws. President Norwood said: HONORARY DEGREES 65

Native of our own great Commonwealth, graduate of Harvard University, successful business executive, civic leader, forward-looking political organizer, effective assistant to the Governor of our State in his legal campaign to free the metropolis of its vice and racketeering, member of the highest educational supervisory authority in this State, the Board of Regents, Alfred University gladly welcomes you to the select company of her adopted sons. Therefore, by authority of the Trustees of Alfred University, I admit you, William Kingsland Macy, to the degree of Doctor of Laws, honoris causa, in this University, with all the rights, privileges, and obligations belonging thereto, and in evidence thereof, I cause you to be invested wTith the hood of this degree, and present you with this diploma.

JOHN PIERCE HERRICK presented by Dean M. Ellis Drake. Mr. Fresident: Each year Alfred University through the confer­ ring of honorary degrees acclaims the services to society of a select group of distinguished men and women. It is my pleasure this after- neon to nominate for such a degree a man whose name will long be remembered in the annals of Alfred University. Born in Michigan, he was brought by his parents at the age of four to nearby Potter County in Pennsylvania. At 17 he became the teacher of a district school but soon turned to newspaper work. Lo­ cating in Ceres, N. Y., he founded the Oswayo Valley Mail. A few years later he moved to Bolivar, N. Y., where he founded the Bolivar Breeze. These ventures were successful from the start and both papers are still well known in the country weekly newspaper field. Although these papers have passed into other hands, his early journal­ istic interest has continued and he is still an occasional contributor of feature articles to metropolitan and other newspapers. While in Bolivar he became interested in the production of oil and soon was a recognized leader in this field. He was one of the organizers of the New York State Oil Producers Association and was for some years the President of this body; he aided in the organiza­ tion of the Pennsylvania Crude Oil Association and served as a di­ rector for several years; he has been a member of the Board of Gov­ ernors of the International Petroleum Congress and a member of the Board of Counselors of the American Petroleum Institute. In recent years he has spent much time delving into the history of the oil in­ dustry and has done much valuable work in recording the record of this phase of America's industrial development. For many years he has been a resident of Olean, New York, where he has been active in the life of that community serving for a time as President of the Olean Trust Company and as President and director of the Young Men's Christian Association. In 1931 he was elected to the Board of Trustees of Alfred Univer­ sity and through the years has given loyal and invaluable service to the University. He is a devoted friend of education and of young people. He has been particularly active in developing endowments to provide scholarships for deserving students. It was his leadership which brought into being the Orville P. Taylor Scholarship established by the oil producers of Allegany County and the Allegany County Masonic Free Scholarship established by the Masons of Allegany County and their friends. In addition he and Mrs Herrick have estab­ lished a large number of unusually substantial scholarships for which they themselves have provided the endowment. In recognition of his services to Alfred and to society I take pleasure, Mr. President, in presenting for the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws the name of this distinguished gentleman and friend of young people, John Pierce Herrick.

President Norwood said: Haling from a birthplace in Michigan, settling finally in Western New York, experienced newspaper founder and publisher, successful operator in the great oil empire just southwest of us; officer in many press and trade associations; honored civic leader; historian of the petroleum industry of this State; actively patriotic citizen; generous philanthropist, not letting the left hand know what the right hand doeth; above all lover of youth, and lavish provider of assistance for the higher education of youth; Alfred University gladly recognizes these great qualities and lists you among her honored sons. Therefore, by authority of the Trustees of Alfred University, I admit you, John Pierce Herrick, to the degree of Doctor of Laws, honoris causa, in this University with all the rights, privileges and obligations thereunto appertaining, and in token thereof, I cause you to be invested with the appropriate hood of this degree and present you with this diploma.

JOSEPH HILLIS MILLER presented by Dean Alfred E. Whitford. Mr. President: It is a privilege to present for an honorary degree our guest and speaker whose stimulating and thought-provoking ad­ dress on this occasion has been a significant contribution to our Com­ mencement program. Born in Virginia near the beginning of the present century and receiving his elementary, high-school, and college education in his native state, he was graduated from the University of Richmond in HONORARY DEGREES 67

1924 with the degree of Bachelor of Arts. One year later he received the degree of Master of Arts from the University of Virginia. He then joined the faculty of William and Mary College as Instructor in Psych­ ology and served in that position for three years. Then for two years he studied as a graduate student in Columbia University and at the same time served as assistant to Harry Emerson Fosdick in the Riverside Church.

For the next five years he was Assistant Professor of Psychology in Bucknell University and also Dean of Students, first of freshmen and later of all students. It was during this period that Columbia University in the year 1933 conferred on him its highest degree, that of Doctor of Philosophy. His field of study was psychology and it is interesting that his dissertation was on the subject of "The Practice of Public Prayer, Psychological Study".

In 1935 he was called to the presidency of Keuka College, and effectively carried on the activities of that position for six years. It was wiiile he was serving as president of our neighboring college that some of us became acquainted with him and came to admire his sterling qualities as a scholar, teacher, and administrator.

In 1941 he was chosen by the Regents of the State of New York to be Associate Commissioner of Education, a position which he has ably filled up to the present time. His special field in this position is higher and professional education, and hence he has much to do in giving friendly advice and counsel to all private institutions of higher learning and in providing general administrative supervision over all state colleges including our own College of Ceramics.

In his college days he won many honors including Phi Beta Kappa key and was awarded twice the Virginia State Oratorical Medal in Public Speaking. In more recent years he has engaged in a wide variety of community activities and has contributed his time and leadership to several national organizations of his own religious af­ filiation, the Northern Baptist Convention.

Furthermore his pen has been productive in bringing to the public numerous articles published in professional journals and in the press. These articles have covered a variety of subjects, but have been large­ ly devoted to youth problems, guidance, personnel work, and problems of higher education.

Mr. President, in recognition of this man's outstandingly success­ ful achievement in teaching and administration, and in recognition of the eminent services he is now rendering as a leader in education in New York State, I have the honor of presenting for the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws, Joseph Hillis Miller. President Norwood said:

Son of the Old Dominion, graduate of three universities, Richmond, Virginia, and Columbia; teacher, college executive, writer on psych­ ology and philosophy as well as on current education problems, suc­ cessful administrator for the University of the State of New York as Associate Commissioner of Education, church leader, public lecturer, Alfred University welcomes you to the roll of her adopted alumni. Therefore, by authority of the Trustees of Alfred University, I admit you, Joseph Hillis Miller, to the degree of Doctor of Laws, honoris causa, in this University with all the rights, privileges and obligations thereunto appertaining, and in token thereof, I cause you to be invested with the appropriate hood of this degree and present you with this diploma.

At this point the proceedings were interrupted by Dr. Waldo A, Titsworth who, addressing President Norwood, presented the following: Mr. President: Because of the many years we have worked and played together, I have been chosen to tell you about something which has been happening during the past six weeks about which, I believe, you know nothing. In honor of your retirement the trustees and one hundred and seventeen of the campus and Jamestown personnel have contributed to.a gift fund. It is both interesting and satisfying to know that the contributors were not just given to a fund, but rather were showing in this small way, their desire to do something for one who has done so much for them. This feeling has been expressed over and over again. As you know, the trustees have designated the room in Greene Hall, formerly the office of President-Emeritus Boothe Colwell Davis, to be your office when you become President-Ereritus, and with this gift fund, which has been so generously and willing given, we are furnishing the room so that it will be fully and adequately equipped to meet your every need. It is our fondest hope that you will use it for many, many years to come, and that it will be our privilege, in this way to keep you with us on the campus. I take great pleasure and pride in presenting you with this key which symbolizes your complete authority over your new office. HONORARY DEGREES 69

"An Appreciation of John Nelson Norwood," read by Dr. Charles P. Rogers, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Alfred University: The Board of Trustees of Alfred University accepted with re­ luctance the retirement request of John Nelson Norwood, President of Alfred University. John Nelson Norwood has been a vital force in Alfred University from the time of his entrance as a student and through his career as teacher, Dean, Acting-President and President. In every capacity he acquitted himself with diligence, brilliance and foresight. As an out­ standing student, he caught the attention of the Faculty and was recommended to the Graduate Faculties of Wisconsin, Michigan and Cornell. In all these great graduate universities, his work was of the highest quality. In 1915, Cornell University granted him the Ph.D. degree after writing a thesis on "The Slavery Schism in the Methodist Episcopal Church, 1844." John Nelson Norwood was a teacher par excellence. Every stu­ dent who listened to his lectures left the class room with an under­ standing of history, economics and politics. What is more, each stu­ dent caught the relationships of these fields of social endeavor. The best testimony of his teaching is the number of men inspired to con­ tinue graduate studies and the number of teachers prepared for secon­ dary school teaching. As Dean, he was responsible for higher standards, curriculum im­ provements, better methods of teaching in all departments and a just but firm administration of student affairs. He served in this capacity during the years of Alfred's greatest expansion and provided the solu­ tion for many pressing academic problems As President, he lived through the most exacting and trying period in the history of the American college. The pressures of war have created problems for every college and Alfred has been no exception. Through this period, Alfred has maintained her place, has met each challenge and comes out of the war period, ready for the many issues of the post-war. This represents leadership by the President. In the community, President Norwood has been a factor in every public enterprise. A director of the Bank, prominent in Masonic and Rotary circles, his influence has been felt in these activities and always in the direction of progress. As a Christian gentleman, John Nelson Norwood has no peer. Scrupulously honest in his every thought, devoted to his family and his church, intensely loyal to his adopted land, his influence has been felt in the lives of thousands of students and thousands of veteran 11

New Yorkers. He has made an impress going far beyond the area of geographic Alfred. In every test of his life, he has kept the faith. No greater tribute can be paid to any man. The Board of Trustees wishes him well in the years to come as he takes a well deserved rest and devotes his time to writing, study and the well-being of his fellow men.

JOHN NELSON NORWOOD presented by Dr. J. Hillis Miller, Associate Commissioner of Education, State Education Department, Albany, New York, as a candidate for the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws. I have an honor that no person has ever had before, that of pre­ senting John Nelson Norwood for an honorary degree. Not one, but several institutions have coveted the privilege of honoring him, but as a matter of policy he has consistently though graciously declined their proffered gifts. Only his love for Alfred and Alfred's love for him have scaled the ramparts of his otherwise impregnable defense. He stands defenseless before his Alma Mater today, and has consented to receive it from you, to whom has been entrusted the destiny of the in­ stitution he has served so faithfully and well, the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws. Born in England and educated in America he represents the best in both of these glorious lands. England is the poorer because he left her, and by the same token America is the richer because he came to her shores. His influence cannot be measured by any instrument at my command. My words of praise are feeble whispers as compared with the effective voices that might be raised by the thousands of stu­ dents whose lives he has touched and influenced. His preparation for his life's work was thorough and complete. He drank deeply at the wells of knowledge and wisdom at Alfred, the University of Wisconsin, the University of Michigan, and Cornell University. Alfred University was quick to recognize his unique abilities. He has served her respectively as professor, dean, acting president, and president. This academic march of triumph gave him the opportuni­ ties he so richly deserved and so successfully discharged. There were steep ascents and valleys of despair along the way, but not once did he falter nor fall, for he also knew how to stand humbly on the moun­ tain tops of success there to receive inspiration for the next step of the way. His influence extended beyond the hollowed walls of Alfred. As President of the College of Ceramics he was a faithful servant of the State of New York. I declare without fear of contradiction that there is no president in the State more highly regarded nor more greatly beloved by the State officials than John Nelson Norwood. HONORARY DEGREES 71

His church, his community, and his country have also felt the in­ fluence of his sterling qualities. May it be said with true and sincere emphasis that he is a gentleman and a scholar. Pursuant to the high privilege given to me by the Board of Trus­ tees of Alfred University, I respectfully present John Nelson Norwood for the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws. The degree was conferred by Br. J. E. Walters, President-Elect of Alfred University, who ivas specially authorized by the Board of Trus­ tees to do so.

Doctor Walters said: John Nelson Norwood, Christian gentleman, brilliant teacher, diligent Dean, and effective President, by virtue of the authorities vested in me by the Trustees of Alfred University, I bestow upon you the degree of Doctor of Laws, honoris causa, with all the rights, privi­ leges and honors appertaining thereto, and in token thereof, I cause you to be invested with the appropriate hood and present you with this diploma signed by the President-elect of Alfred University.

We have examined the accounts of the Treasurer of Alfred University for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1945. Cosh receipts and disbursements, as shown by the records, have been properly accounted for and changes in invested funds have been verified.

The balance of the securities have been verified by inspection or traced by correspondence.

Bonds and stocks shown in Exhibit A under "Cash and Investments held by Alfred University," and in Schedule A-2 "Endowment Fund Assets held by Alfred University," are carried either at cost or, in the case of gifts, at the market value at the time of donation.

This examination did not include the accounts of the New York State Schools of Ceramics or Agriculture, as shown in the Report of the Treasurer of Alfred University.
