in education than for other
fields is an inference that might
be drawn from the DAILY Ne
BRASKAN compilation of fig
ures on university alumni ap
pearing in Who's Who.
Of 317 former students included
in the last listing of alumni in
Who's Who made by the alumni
office in 1936, 127 were included
because of their note as educa
tors. Thirty-six Nebraska edu
cated lawyers were thus recog
nized, 26 politicians, 16 editors
and publishers and 15 authors.

years of hard work for the av
erage university alumnus listed
has been out of school 34 years.
Several of those listed did not
receive degrees.
Some years Nebraska produced
bumper crops of graduates who
received Who's Who acclaim while
other years were comparatively
drouth stricken. In 1902, '20 stu
dents who left the university,
later made Who's Who; but in the
class of 1901 only eight graduates
achieved this recognition. Classes
of 1897 and '98 each placed 17
students in this catalogue of
fame and the class of 1911 placed
18.
Nineteen members of the uni
versity faculty who attended Ne
braska are listed in Who's Who.
Also included are 20 graduates
that reside in Lincoln.
Most widely known of univer
sity graduates include General
John J. Pershing; Roscoe Pound,
dean of Harvard's law school;
Ruth Bryan Owen, former am
bassador to Denmark; Willa
Cather, authoress; Hiram Orr,
Lincoln surgeon whose research
was recently featured in Life
magazine, former Governor Roy
Cochran, James Lawrence, edi
tor of the Lincoln Star and
Harvey Newbranch, editor of
the Omaha World-Herald and
