Excerpt from Oberlin Alumni Magazine, Vol. 37: June 1941 The loss column of the Oberlin base ball squad grew much longer than the win column as the season progressed with the result that the record does not compare with that in track and tennis. Oberlin defeated Otterbein, Kenyon, and Wooster when meeting those teams for their first encounters, but return engagements with each of these teams reversed the score in the latter part of the season. Ohio Wes leyan, Ashland, Rochester and Kent State also topped the Yeomen. In the regular Varsity - Alumni battle during Commencement week-end, the Alumni Squad played heads up ball, and when rain stopped the fracas, the score stood 2-2.

Oberlin Alumni Magazine, Vol. 37 by Carroll K. Shaw Pdf

Excerpt from Oberlin Alumni Magazine, Vol. 37: October 1940 Subject to certain limitations described in this article, Oberlin's faculty are self-governing. Oberlin's teachers plan the course of its educational policies, play an important part in making appointments and in planning the budget for the year. In 1913, a faculty committee at Oberlin prepared a report on the mutual relations between the trustees and the faculty. The committee quotes the then President of Cornell Uni versity as saying, The present government of American universities and colleges is altogether anomalous. The presi dent and trustees hold the reins of power and exercise supreme control, while the professors are legally in the position of employees of the corporation. Compare the American professors with the scholars and scientists of Oxford and Cambridge. They are their own board of trustees. The legal corporation of an Oxford or Cambridge College is composed of the head (president, master, or what ever name may be given to him) and the fellows, who are the teachers of the institution, and this body fills all vacan cies by co'option.

Oberlin Alumni Magazine, Vol. 37 by Carroll K. Shaw Pdf

Excerpt from Oberlin Alumni Magazine, Vol. 37: May, 1941 Oberlin offered work of a sort in physical education in the seventies; from 1874 to 1880, the old Music Hall had served as the Ladies' Gymnasium, with student teachers in charge. President Fairchild voiced a self-evident truth in his report to the Board of Trustees in 1880, when he said, A more thorough organization, under the charge of an officer of the College, would doubtless secure better results. When, in the following year, the old Music Hall was de stroyed by fire, provision was made in the proposed annex to Ladies' Hall for a new gymnasium, and it was completed for the fall term in 1881. When Miss Hanna began work as a school teacher in 1884, in Fairport, New York, she became convinced that both teachers and students needed physical education founded upon a scientific basis. A summer school term with Dio Lewis confirmed her in that view, and so she went to the private Normal School of Physical Training conducted by Dr. Dudley A. Sargeant of Harvard. It was in 1885, that Miss Hanna applied for a position at Oberlin. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Oberlin Alumni Magazine, Vol. 37: December, 1940 As a result of recommendations made by the Alumni Council, follow ing a report by a special committee of the Alumni Association, the College Board of Trustees has approved a new procedure for nominating alumni trustees to the Board. Since 1892, Oberlin graduates have directly elected six of the twenty-four members of the College Board of Trustees. This practice will continue, but the method of making nominations has been re vised by the action taken by the Board at its meeting on November 16. Heretofore, nominations have been made by the general body of graduates. Nominating ballots were sent out in the Spring by the College Secretary, and each graduate has been asked to enter the name of an alumnus as candi date for trustee. The names of the five candidates who thus receive the highest number of votes were then printed on ballots and sent out to all graduates in the fall. The candidate receiving the highest number of votes was declared elected. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Go Do Some Great Thing by Kilian Crawford Pdf

Living in pre-Civil War Philadelphia, young Black activist Mifflin Gibbs was feeling disheartened from fighting the overwhelming tide of White America’s legalized racism when abolitionist Julia Griffith encouraged him to “go do some great thing.” These words helped inspire him to become a successful merchant in San Francisco, and then to seek a more just society in the new colony of Vancouver Island, where he was to become a prominent citizen and elected official. Gibbs joined a movement of Black American emigrants fleeing the increasingly oppressive and anti-Black Californian legal system in 1858. They hoped to establish themselves in a new country where they would have full access to the rights of citizenship and would be free to seek success and stability. Some six hundred Black Californians made the trip to Victoria in the midst of the Fraser River Gold Rush, but their hopes of finding a welcoming new home were ultimately disappointed. They were to encounter social segregation, disenfranchisement, limited employment opportunities and rampant discrimination. But in spite of the opposition and racism they faced, these pioneers played a pivotal role in the emerging province, establishing an all-Black militia unit to protect against American invasion, casting deciding votes in the 1860 election and helping to build the province as teachers, miners, artisans, entrepreneurs and merchants. Crawford Kilian brings this vibrant period of British Columbia’s history to life, evoking the chaos and opportunity of Victoria’s gold rush boom and describing the fascinating lives of prominent Black pioneers and trailblazers, from Sylvia Stark and Saltspring Island’s notable Stark family to lifeguard and special constable Joe Fortes, who taught a generation of Vancouverites to swim. Since its original publication in 1978, Go Do Some Great Thing has remained foundational reading on the history of Black pioneers in BC. Updated and with a new foreword by Adam Rudder, the third edition of this under-told story describes the hardships and triumphs of BC’s first Black citizens and their legacy in the province today. Partial proceeds from each copy sold will be donated to the Hogan's Alley Society.

Women Artists of the Harlem Renaissance by Amy Helene Kirschke Pdf

Women artists of the Harlem Renaissance dealt with issues that were unique to both their gender and their race. They experienced racial prejudice, which limited their ability to obtain training and to be taken seriously as working artists. They also encountered prevailing sexism, often an even more serious barrier. Including seventy-two black and white illustrations, this book chronicles the challenges of women artists, who are in some cases unknown to the general public, and places their achievements in the artistic and cultural context of early twentieth-century America. Contributors to this first book on the women artists of the Harlem Renaissance proclaim the legacy of Edmonia Lewis, Meta Vaux Warrick Fuller, Augusta Savage, Selma Burke, Elizabeth Prophet, Lois Maillou Jones, Elizabeth Catlett, and many other painters, sculptors, and printmakers. In a time of more rigid gender roles, women artists faced the added struggle of raising families and attempting to gain support and encouragement from their often-reluctant spouses in order to pursue their art. They also confronted the challenge of convincing their fellow male artists that they, too, should be seen as important contributors to the artistic innovation of the era.
