"When Doctor Sherman came to
the University he brought training

present day standards. Yale uni
versity is Immensely proud of him
as being exhlhi: A In claas one of
the Ph.D.s turned out by Yale's

Doctor Avery explained that
when Dean Sherman came here.
the University consisted of 'U'
hall on the city campus with a half
dozen professors and exactly fifty
nine undergraduates and two grad
uate students. The music, art and
unclassified list swelled the totals
to 228, however.
School Nead Advance
"There waa need of scholarship,
not only In the University, but in
the life of the city. The University
as we know it began to take form
In the year 1882. and so well did
Doctor Sherman and bis colleagues
inject into its life a desire for cul
ture and scholarship that this In
fluence survived even through the
great period of expansion begun
ten years later."
This period of expansion was
when anyone might enter the uni
versity if he had a "good country
school education."
"The graduate school later to be
erected Into a graduate college was
largely the creation of Dean Sher
man. Dean Edgren gave It Ideals
but Dean Sherman made It a
reality. Dean Sherman accom
plished the moat dlfficulr task of
creating an atmosphere of scholar
ship In a prarrie state.
"We are glad you are relieved
of the duties of dean and of chair
man and will continue to be with
ua free from executive fetters."
said Doctor Avery to Dean Sher
man. "The chancellor and the
Board of Regents with the 'ap
proval of all of us recognize that
you have earned the right not to
quit work but to work, how, when
