Excerpt from Celebration of the Centennial Anniversary of the University of the State The University of the State of New York was established by an act of the Legislature, passed May 1, 1781. By this act, and subsequent amendatory acts, the supervision of the institutions of secondary and superior education in the State was intrusted to the Regents of the University. They were thus constituted a State board of education which, in priority of establishment, antedates all others in the United States. The century which has since elapsed has witnessed the inception, organization and development of the present noble system of education in the State. In this work the part of the Board of Regents has been so conspicuous and honora ble that it has been deemed appropriate to celebrate, in some suitable manner, the centennial anniversary of its establishment. It was accordingly arranged that special commemorative services Should be held in connection with the usual University Convocation of 1884. The following pages comprise the proceedings of this centennial celebration, together with the papers and discussions of the Twenty Second Convocation. The fame of the orators, the excellence of the special historical discourses, the unparalleled dignity and import ance of the educational discussions combined to render the occa sion a worthy and fitting memorial of a century of disinterested service.

Excerpt from University State of Missouri: Celebration of the Semi-Centennial Anniversary of Its Founding, July 4, 1890 I have the pleasure of presenting General Odon Guitar, who is too well known to need an introduction to any Missouri audience.

Excerpt from Memorial of the First Centenary of Georgetown College, D. C: Comprising a History of Georgetown University, and an Account of the Centennial Celebration In the adoption of this suggestion the scope of the proposed work was extended so as to include a history of the College during its first century. Unexpected difficulties, encountered in the execution of this plan, have deferred the publication of the book to a time when the motives that led to its inception may seem to have lost something of their force. Delay, how ever, has probably operated to increase the accuracy and perfection of the work. Moreover, the history of an institution that initiated, however humbly, the higher education of Catholics in the United States, and whose development has always been closely linked with the general progress of college and university teaching in our country, as it cannot be lacking in permanent interest to scholars, can never be considered untimely. The volume is therefore put forth at this time Without apology. It remains only to give public expression here to the gratitude due from the Faculty of Georgetown University to the two authors and the publisher Of this book, and to all who, by written or Spoken word, by co-operation, as individuals or as members Of committees, have aided to the worthy com memoration Of the first Centenary of Georgetown College.

Excerpt from Quarto-Centennial Celebration: University of Colorado, November 13, 14 and 15, 1902, Boulder, Colo Prominent, if not foremost, among the legal reforms Of the century, which preceded the foundation Of this University, was the simplification of legal procedure. The archaic condition Of the law of procedure is illus trated by the fact that trial by battle was not formally abolished in Eng land until 1819, and it is only in comparatively recent times that the relation of procedure to substantive law has been clearly and definitely understood. The great leader in this reform in England was Mr. Bentham, in the early part of the century, and it was not until many years after his death that the reforms which he advocated were accepted and adopted both in England and America. The reform code pleading was adopted in New York in 1849, and nearly all the States have followed. Lawyers trained in the common lawx pleading naturally looked upon this innovation with suspicion and dis trust. But no State which has adopted this reform procedure has returned to the ancient common law pleading, and no State which has abolished any of the ancient exclusionary rules of evidence has restored them. We would be as much surprised now to hear of such a suggestion as we would of the return to trial by ordeal or wager Of battle. During the quarter century which has passed, the quarter centennial whereof you are now celebrating, this movement for the simplification of procedure has gone progressively forward. Investigations in historical jurisprudence have demonstrated that extreme technicality in procedure, such as we had until a comparatively recent period in our own law, and such as we find in the Twelve Tables Of the Roman Law, is the Sign of an undeveloped system of law, in which legal rights are subordinate to the procedure to enforce them, in which substance is secondary to form. Thus Sir Henry Maine says that technicality is a disease, not of the old age, but of the infancy of legal systems, and he adds.

Excerpt from Centennial Anniversary of the Birth of Ezra Cornell: Addresses at the Celebration Held at Cornell University, April 26, 1907 As his ideas developed under constant conference with Mr. White, the public became more and more excited, and the introduction of the bill for a charter was the signal for war. The small sectarian colleges were up in arms and sent delegates to Albany; they also stirred up the press throughout the State. The cries of Monopoly, A Grab, A Swindle, were all played upon, and it was charged that Cornell was only seeking to erect a monu ment to himself by planning to rob the State. He had once to sit and hear a lawyer, employed to address the Committee against the bill, intimate that he was a swindler. He whispered to Mr. White, If I could think of any other way in which half a million dollars would do as much good to the State I should give the legislators no more trouble. Here we have a revelation of the man and his aims. Because it was the good of his State that he had solely in view, he could sit thus patiently under abuse and hear his aims 'misrepresented. Innocence always has a quiet breast, and the vile charges passed by him as idle wind. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Centennial Celebration of the Foundation of the University of Maryland It is an undecided question whether history makes the man, or whether the man, i.e., forceful personality makes history. In the same manner, it is still undecided whether men make universities, or universities make men. Very probable it is, that no hard and fast conclusion will represent the absolute truth in this respect, but that the forces are active from both aspects. Men do make history and history does make men; and similarly men create universities and universities make men. What a powerful factor in the development of a nation universities can be is demonstrated by the histories of the older American universities and the potential intellectual forces that have emanated from them. This is also evident from the history of the University of Maryland, as given in the History of Education in Maryland, by Bernard C. Steiner, Ph.D., (Contribution to the American Educational History, United States Bureau of Education). It is also shown in the history of the University of Maryland by Prof. Eugene F. Cordell, M.A., M.D., Baltimore, 1891; and also a much larger history by the same author, published in two volumes by the Lewis Publishing Company, New York. It is not the intention of the editor to give a review of the history of our institution. Those interested will find abundant material in the volumes just quoted, and many reference will be 'contained in the addresses presented in the following pages.

Excerpt from The Centennial of the University of Virginia: 1819-1921; The Proceedings of the Centenary Celebration, May 31 to June 3, 1921 The University of Virginia was founded in 1819 by Thomas Jefferson. The celebration of its one-hundredth anniversary was delayed from 1919 to 1921 because of disturbed world conditions following the Great War. Prior to the Centennial there appeared the monumental History of the University of Virginia, by Philip Alexander Bruce, LL.D., the notable offering of a distinguished alumnus and historian; and coincident with that event was published a volume of poems, The Enchanted Years, contributed in honor of the occasion by poets of America and Great Britain. Shortly before the Centennial Celebration, there was shown on the moving-picture screen in Virginia and other states a series of important events and noteworthy scenes in the history of the University from the days of Jefferson and Poe to the present. The following pages set forth in order the proceedings of that historic occasion which covered four days, May 31-June 3, 1921. Most of the addresses delivered, a few representative greetings, and the text of the Centennial Pageant are included, together with a number of illustrations which will make more vivid to the reader certain memorable scenes. While the volume is primarily a record of the Centennial Celebration, it is in a larger sense an interpretation of the spirit of an institution through a hundred years of service to State and Nation.

Excerpt from The Laurentian, Vol. 19: July 1906; Semi-Centennial Anniversary of the Founding of St. Lawrence University, 1856-1906 The semi-centennial anniversary of the founding of St. Lawrence University! To some who were present - alumni with gray heads but youthful hearts, themselves near the celebration of their semi-centennial - this scarcely seemed possible. They remember so well the little college of the past, with its faculty of six or seven teachers, and classes about as large, when both departments rattled like dried peas in the shell of a single building which also served as a dormitory. They can only think of the college as young, struggling, almost starving on a barren hill in a region none too friendly in those days - the college, perhaps, of the seventies, when true college spirit was just beginning and college work was done without college equipment. And they find the building they knew almost hidden behind the grove which was then a thicket of bare poles, and new buildings to left and right, the newest of all stretching far beyond the trees, and more to come. They find, too, a chapel larger than that in which they sat uncrowded, yet quite too small for the noisy throng of to-day. That they find more loyalty than they knew no one Will say; loyalty such as theirs, in and out of the college, has made St. Law rence what it is.
