The Board of Trustees This year is marked by the termination of the chairmanship of Robert G. Dodge who has for twenty-four years been a mem- ber of the Board and for seventeen years its chairman. We have had many occasions on which to try to express the appreciation of the College for Mr. Dodge's magnificent service. All those efforts are inadequate to express the indebtedness we feel for the clarity of his vision, the soundness of his judgment, the keenness of his insight, and the strength of his kindness and generosity.
