1938
This will appear along about the end of the football season. As usual, I shall omit lists of those attending games, since such lists are bound to be unreliable and furnish little information. If, however, any substantial news comes from a contact in Cambridge, New Haven, Ithaca, or Philadelphia, rush it here for the next issue of this august publication. By now, also, the Princeton reunion will have been and gone, and the decision as to whether or not to make this an annual affair will have to be made. So many classes do schedule a gettogether for a specific weekend in Hanover during the fall that it seems logical that 1938 would be able to plan an annual event.
Al Wolff, dean of student personnel at the University of Bridgeport, made news last June by being honored instead of berated by the senior class at commencement. At a mass meeting earlier in the year, the class had voted unanimously to present him with a special citation as "a gesture of friendship and appreciation of the dean's sincerity." They also dedicated their yearbook to him and made him an honorary member of the class. Special congratulations are due Al in this time of misunderstanding between students and administrators.
Dr. Richard C. Jones of New Paltz, N. Y., has been named by the State University of New York Board of Trustees to become acting president of State University College, Cortland, N. Y. Dick has been associate University dean of all SUNY four-year colleges since August when he left the acting vice-presidency at State University College, New Paltz, a position he had held since March. He joined the New Paltz faculty in 1948 as a professor of biology. After graduation from Dartmouth, Dick received his Master's at UNH and his Ph.D. from the State University of Washington.
From the Northbrook, Ill. "Star" (cir. 4,000) comes word that Jerry Hochberg has been appointed president of the Welby Clock Division of Elgin National Watch Co. He has been with Welby since 1958, when he started as a sales representative. He was named sales manager in 1961 and vice president of marketing in 1964. During the war he was a lieutenant commander in the Navy.
The latest word from Hanover is that there has been established a graduate student fellowship honoring former Dean Karl A. Hill at the Amos Tuck School of Business Administration. The fellowship has been made possible by gifts from members of the Tuck School Faculty and alumni and Dean Hill's many friends and associates, in the appreciation of his years of significant accomplishment as chief executive of the school from 1957 to 1968.
In addition to his present position as Dean of the School of Business and Public Administration at Washington University in St. Louis, Karl is now secretary-treasurer of the American Association of Collegiate Schools of Business.
The new Dean of the Tuck School, Dean Hennessey, remarked: "The long-range strength of American business depends on its ability to attract top leadership talent. The Karl A. Hill Fellowship adds to the ability of the Amos Tuck School to encourage able men of promise, no matter what their economic circumstances. We are most grateful to all the people who made this distinguished fellowship possible."
Having run through the considerable accumulation of notes from the summer in the last edition of the MAGAZINE, that's the end of the material for this month. If you have made any news yourself or know of a classmate who has, be sure to let me know. A column of this nature has its significance only in the names of classmates it can mention.
