The Alumni Directory of Lincoln University, Centennial Edition, 1954 _. .. Foreword The Centennial Alumni Directory lists students by The Ge classes and indexes them alphabetically and geographically. Graduates of the college are listed first, followed by non- 3ud en t graduates. A student who received degrees from both the college and the seminary is listed with his college class only. Wi Seminary graduates who received their undergraduate de- gree elsewhere are listed under SEMINARY. Extractc The class list places a graduate under the year in which Alumni the degree was granted and a non-graduate with the class in which he entered. Every effort has been made to present Alphabe names, addresses, and classes accurately, a difficult task in many instances because of the failure or delay on the Geograp part of many alumni and former students in filling out and returning the directory blanks mailed to them. Because of the magnitude of the task undertaken and the unavoidable lag between the preparation of the copy and the actual printing of the directory, it was impossible to catch every error, make address changes, add informa- tion, and/or note that some alumni and former students had died since the copy went to press. When it was not stated, an address was assumedto be a residential one. An asterisk (*) is used to indicate a deceased alumnus. The directory proper begins with the class of 1884, the oldest class with surviving members known to the University. Any errors or omissions should be called to the attention of the editor, Office of Public Relations, Lincoln University, Lincoln University, Pa. H.

The Cathedral of St. John the Divine (Map New York disappear to differing amounts of fanfare and 18) has a very medieval vibe and is the world’s largest make room for whatever it is we’ll be romanticizing in the unfinished cathedral—a much cooler destination than the future. Ain’t that the circle of life? The landmarks discussed eternally crowded St. Patrick’s Cathedral (Map 12). are highly idiosyncratic choices, and this list is by no means complete or even logical, but we’ve included an array of places, from world famous to little known, all worth visiting.

Coolest Skyscrapers Head downtown to view City Hall (Map 3) (1812), Most visitors to New York go to the top of the Empire State Tweed Courthouse (Map 3) (1881), Jefferson Market Building (Map 9), but it’s far more familiar to New Yorkers Courthouse (Map 5) (1877—now a library), the Municipal from afar—as a directional guide, or as a tip-off to obscure Building (Map 3) (1914), and a host of other court- holidays (orange & white means it’s time to celebrate houses built in the early 20th century.

  • March 30, 2015 the Honorable Lamar Alexander Chairman
    March 30, 2015 The Honorable Lamar Alexander Chairman Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions U.S. Senate 428 Dirksen Senate Office Building Washington, DC 20510 Dear Chairman Alexander: I am writing on behalf of UNCF (United Negro College Fund) and our 37 member institutions (including Fisk University, Lane College and LeMoyne-Owen College) to provide comments on S. 108, the Financial Aid Simplification and Transparency Act, or FAST Act. I, along with several of our member presidents, would greatly appreciate an opportunity to meet with you to discuss the FAST Act and other important higher education issues impacting Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) that the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee will consider later this year. UNCF is proud of its 71 years of service in helping low-income students of color progress to and through college by means of scholarship and programmatic support. We are a major scholarship provider to African American, Hispanic American, Native American and Pacific Islander students, having raised more than $4.3 billion to help over 400,000 students receive college degrees at HBCUs and other institutions across the country. With our deep experience in serving disadvantaged students of color, we know that federal student aid is essential for students without their own financial means to go to and through college. By 2012, only 23 percent of young African Americans between ages 25 and 29 had earned a college degree – about half the rate for white Americans – at a time when college degrees are more essential than ever. Even worse, the nation’s progress in boosting this percentage and closing college attainment inequities has slowed.

  • Language Attitudes Towards Canadian French and English, 1691-1902: the Emergence of the Canadian Voices
    Language Attitudes towards Canadian French and English, 1691-1902: The Emergence of the Canadian Voices by Beau Brock A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in French Linguistics Department of French Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Beau Brock 2014 Language Attitudes towards Canadian French and English, 1691- 1902: The Emergence of the Canadian Voices Beau Brock Doctor of Philosophy in French Linguistics Department of French Studies University of Toronto 2014 Abstract This dissertation examines the origins and development of attitudes (in the guise of beliefs and stereotypes) towards Canadian French and Canadian English during the 18th and 19th centuries, as expressed primarily by foreign travellers to North America. By conducting a comparative study of these two languages, I aim to build a bridge between French Canadian studies on Canadian French, and Anglophone Canadian studies on Canadian English, two fields which have historically been distinct and separate. The time period studies (1691-1902) is marked by major political and social change, including the English Conquest, the creation of Upper and Lower Canada (and later the United Province of Canada), and the Dominion, all of which had major, lasting effects on the development and status of both languages. In order to study the evolution of language attitudes during this period, I employed content analysis on the metalinguistic and cultural commentary in a wide variety of texts, including travel journals, scholarly and newspaper articles, monographs, and prescriptive texts, written in French and English. My analysis has shown that British commentators were the most critical of both languages (and peoples), and relied almost entirely on beliefs and stereotypes rather than empirical evidence to ii support their claims.
