O'ConnellVice-President and Dean of Students in theUniversityApril 26, 1977OverviewClass of 1976. Each quarter for the past tenyears, students who indicate their expectationof receiving a degree are asked to complete aquestionnaire concerning their postconvocationplans. The data are then analyzed by the Office ofCareer Counseling and Placement. The data forthe class of 1976 of the College cover the fourquarters, summer 1975 through spring 1976. Fivehundred thirty-six bachelor's degrees wereawarded during this period, and of these 535 students returned identifiable questionnaires: 344 (64percent) were male and 191 (36 percent) werefemale.Acceleration. Fifty-seven students, or 10.5 percent of the class graduated in less than four years.The fifty-seven entered either as first-year students in autumn 1972 and graduated before spring1976, or entered in autumn 1973 and graduated inspring 1976.In addition, twenty-nine students in the class of1976 combined their last year in the College withthe first year in graduate professional study andwill thus shorten their combined undergraduate/graduate course of study by one year. Of thesetwenty-nine, twenty-four were in the MBA program, one in law, one in library science, and threein social service administration.Fourteen students were in joint BA/MA programs; six in economics, three in mathematics,three in Romance languages and literature, andtwo in the math/MAT program. Five of the fifteenwere awarded the MA by spring 1976. In addition, three students, although not in joint programs, were also awarded the master's degree.Thus, 103 students, or more than 19 percent of the class of 1976, either finished their undergraduate work in less than four years or completed a year of graduate study as well as theirundergraduate work in the usual undergraduatefour-year term.Male vs. Female Plans. Data are analyzed foreach sex concerning immediate plans for graduatestudy, job, etc. No significant differences wereapparent between the sexes. Proportionately, ourwomen's aspirations are the same as our men's intheir orientation to graduate study, both arts andsciences and professional schools. Only a slightdifference is noted in other areas; it appears thatmore men proportionately remain indecisiveabout their plans than do the women.Graduate Study. For both men and women, 67percent of the class indicated they planned to godirectly to graduate school. Of this percentage,again both men and women, 43 percent indicatedarts and sciences, leading to the master's andPh.D. degrees; and 57 percent indicated plans forprofessional study. The top three professions inorder of popularity are medicine, law, and business. Education and social work come next. Somerepresentation, however, is shown for publichealth, engineering, journalism, dentistry, libraryscience, theology, theatre, and veterinarymedicine.Jobs. About 25 percent of the class indicated theyplanned to work immediately following graduation. The largest number chose positions in business and industry, followed by government, education, hospitals and social or community agencies, publishing and the media. Within thesefields, our students are engaged in writing and research, systems analysis and data processing, asmarket researchers and management trainees, andadministrative assistants. It perhaps should benoted that several are pursuing acting as a career,and one is an animal assistant in a zoo.71Other Alternatives. This class, unlike others,showed no preference for volunteer work or military service. One percent, however, indicatedplans to travel before making further decisions.Undecided. Eight percent of the class of 1976gave no indication of any postgraduation plans.The reasons for this may be so varied that oneruns a risk in trying to give the figure meaning.Two explanations come to mind, however. Theavailable choices open to our liberal artsgraduates are sufficiently varied that a specificchoice is sometimes difficult to make; and some ofthese students may simply have been waiting tohear from the graduate school of their choice or anemployer but hesitated to commit their plans topaper.November 30, 1976This represents my second report as chairman ofthe Visiting Committee to the College. We have afine committee made up of very interested, quitedistinguished alumni members of the College,each of whom remembers his or her undergraduate days most fondly. It is fairly well balanced as to age and sex.We have had by and large good attendance atthe meetings. Although the most recent one hadabout twelve in attendance, the prior meeting inJune had double that figure. Always we have hadexcellent hosting by Dean Oxnard and his group.The food, drink, and facilities have been good.The communications concerning the College havebeen well presented before an attentive butlargely uncritical listenership. What criticismthere has been by the members of the committeehas primarily been directed toward wonderingwhy our nation in general has been loathe to recognize the sterling qualities of the College at TheUniversity of Chicago as we the members do.Again, those who attend the visiting committeemeetings invariably enjoy them and feel it mostworthwhile.Now — what value does a visiting committeehave in the broad sense? Specifically, what has Summary.Roughly two-thirds of the class of 1976 plannedto pursue graduate study immediately aftergraduation. One-fourth of the class planned toenter the labor market. Of the latter, it perhapsshould be noted that almost all also indicatedplans for graduate study at some later date. Thisperhaps is the most distinguishing characteristicof our undergraduate students: if plans do not involve graduate study immediately upon graduation, our students, whether they seek jobs, travel,or remain undecided, plan to resume study at alater date.Anita SandkeAssistant Dean of Students in the University andDirector of Career Counseling and Placementthe visiting committee done for the College andwhat can it do?Certainly, it must in some way be of service tothe University as a loosely organized group. Having noted that Mr. Ingersoll has called a meetingof all the chairmen of the visiting committees inJanuary, perhaps the manner in which it can servewill be discussed, ventilated, and surfaced at thattime.The chairman of the Visiting Committee to theCollege has, perhaps ad nauseam, mentioned ateach meeting that we must think primarily of theCollege and try to evolve a way of serving theCollege as the single entity.The format of the agenda has followed a somewhat regularized pattern over the last few meetings. We have heard students discuss college life,their special opportunities at the College, andsome of the deficiencies of the College. Dean Oxnard has updated us well on the educational opportunities, new and old, afforded the present daystudents. We then do get down somewhat to thespecifics which, like a balance sheet or P & Lstatement, indicate how the College is progressingon its ensuing admittance program or the degreeof success in terms of enrollment of the newfreshman class plus transfer students.As we discuss student enrollment, the formatREPORT OF THE VISITING COMMITTEETO THE COLLEGE72seems to get fairly stereotyped from meeting tomeeting. First and primary in importance, we deplore the limited number of applications to theCollege. The reasons for the limited number areenumerated by Mr. Hubby in his report. We thenreview the major reasons for not applying and theneed to increase the pool of applicants. We aregiven examples of successful alumni meetings.We recognize there is much lacking in the publicperception of the College. It has an identity problem. The reasons for the lack of applications aresuch things as "too far from home," "not IvyLeague," the inner city ghetto inference, and"too expensive."On the other hand, those who do have the goodjudgment to apply we have found to be of highcaliber, again perhaps due to preconditioning attheir secondary schools. As a result, last year 43percent of those we accepted did enroll. Further,a high percentage of those who visited the campusenrolled. The implication here is, quite rightly,that few candidates were aware of the attractiveness of our campus, which indeed did sell itself tothose who were able to visit.The above train of conversation and generalferreting led to the general feeling that we mustincrease the applications and that somehow thepublic perception of the College in all of its aspects must be exposed to more and more worthystudents.It then follows: How is it to be done or how canit be done more effectively by doing things thatare not currently being done or that can be improved?It would seem — and this is the opinion of thechairman and I believe the dean of the College,although I do not necessarily want to speak forhim, and certainly many of the members — thatspecialized public relations, publicity, and development (other than fund raising) centered onobtaining greater "public perception of the College" are most necessary and important. At present there are no full-time people of this type focused on just the College. For the most part, ithas had part-time attention from neophyte journalists with some beneficial results, but not thekind of results when a full-time, competent professional would be involved.This then is a recommendation for consideration of a publicist of stature devoting full time tothe College and working out of the dean of theCollege's office. I do not know whether the funding of such a person could be obtained from thevisiting committee or its friends, but it could be atopic for consideration. The general issue of fund raising almost alwaysensues. Our visiting committee has not undertaken any specific job in this area since funds forHarper were raised. The circumstance of thesegmenting and fragmenting of the whole generalfund raising effort always arises and does indeedseem to blot out further special efforts. I do notknow what the correct approach to fund raising isas it relates to the College. Certainly, funds fromgraduates of the College should be available if approached properly and effectively by fellow College alumni, but not necessarily more so thanthrough present techniques used. The suggestionhas been put forth that College alumni contributemore proportionately than perhaps the graduatestudents, although that does not mean either thatmore money should be coming directly into theCollege. However, I know that the dean can findexcellent use for funds should we want to raiseour own monies as we did for Harper. Here againthe priorities are not up to us but to the Universityat large.To finish on a truly positive note, it does seemto us that President Wilson is taking a keen interest in the College particularly. The rejuvenation of the athletic, intramural, and extracurricular facilities and programs, as epitomized by thefund raising efforts of the Berwanger-Haarlow-Rossin Committee, etc., is a fine step toward providing future College students with a broader college life without forfeiting academic excellence.This should engender increased applications andincreased enrollment of perhaps a more representative student body. I truly believe, after viewinga cross section of the present student body overseveral years, that it can stand some upgrading,although my reaction may be crass superficiality.In any event, the harbingers for a better all-around College are there and it would seem especially worthwhile that we start exposing thispromising future to prospective students, parents,and secondary school personnel more effectively.As I read this report and compare it with lastyear's, it is strikingly similar in nature. However,it is only two meetings later and under the samechairman. A younger person nearer the campusbase of operations should replace me lest I write athird report of similar nature. But, the committeeand also, I believe, the College administration dofeel quite strongly on the subjects that were covered.Robert C. UptonChairman73REPORT OF THE VISITING COMMITTEETO THE LAW SCHOOLJanuary 10, 1977The Visiting Committee to the Law School met atthe Law School on Thursday, November 18, andFriday, November 19. Of the fifty members of thevisiting committee, thirty-six attended all or partof the two-day meeting.The program included the following:1. A report by Dean Morris as to progressmade in the problem areas discussed in the reportof the visiting committee covering its 1975 meeting.2. A series of seminars designed to presentsome of the recent additions to the faculty andtheir fields of concentration.3. Developments in the curriculum, with students participating in the discussion.4. Presentation of various programs involvingother disciplines in which members of the LawSchool faculty are engaged.5. Discussion of a broad range of problemsconfronting the Law School (the major elementsof which are discussed herein).6. Opportunities to meet informally with members of the faculty and with students and to attendclasses.The more important problems to which thecommittee addressed itself are set out below. Theorder in which they are set out is not intended toidentify priorities.The Size and Composition of FacultyAt previous meetings, the visiting committee hadexpressed concern that the Law School facultyneeded to be enlarged for many reasons. DeanMorris reported on four faculty appointmentsmade since the last meeting of the visiting committee and expressed the belief that severalfurther appointments would be made in the current year.A number of members of the committee renewed earlier concerns as to the absence ofminorities and females on the faculty. Dean Morris and Associate Dean Katz made it clear that theadministration of the School was fully cognizantof the situation and stressed the importance accorded it in faculty recruiting efforts. It is theposition of the School's administration that quality and distinction in scholarship should properly be the major criteria for faculty appointments. Bystrict application of these criteria, the School hasbeen unsuccessful in making minority or femalefaculty appointments. Various suggestions weremade by members of the committee, including resort to adjunct faculty appointments and the useof visiting lectureships or professorships to testthe long-range qualifications of potential candidates, as well as undertaking to provide safe housing for prospective female faculty members.There was expression also of the view that, hopefully, the full complement of faculty would not befilled at an early date with resulting foreclosure ofthe possibility of recruitment of minority orfemale candidates. Members of the committeeexpressed interest in suggesting candidates whomight come to their attention, and Dean Morrisand Associate Dean Katz encouraged assistancein this regard.Placement of Students after GraduationAt previous meetings of the committee the question had been raised as to the scope of placementopportunities available to students. During thepast year the placement program has been systematized and broadened in a manner that apparently puts to rest earlier concerns.Legal Aid ClinicDean Morris reported at length on the likelihoodof financial difficulties confronting the MandelClinic occasioned by a prospective cutback inoperating support from United Charities ofChicago. His remarks were supplemented by William W. Darrow, a member of the visiting committee and chairman of the Legal Aid Bureau ofUnited Charities, who pointed out that limitationof available funds pointed to a reduction infinancial support by United Charities, which isconcerned more with the provision of legal services to the indigent than support of the instructional side of the program.While the dimensions of the problem presentlyare unclear, the future of legal aid activities is asubject matter of critical importance to theSchool. Roughly one-third of second- and third-year students participate in legal aid.A subcommittee of the visiting committee willbe appointed to work with a faculty committee on74this problem, which will include the place of legalaid in the curriculum of the School as well as itsfinancial support.Library Acquisitions; Library and Office SpaceNeedsWhile the above issues are in one sense separate,they are interrelated inasmuch as the volume ofbook and journal acquisitions will have influenceon the future library space needs for the LawSchool.The School's administration is much concernedby the reduced dollar amount available to it fromthe University's overall budget for acquisitions.Like other schools and divisions within the University, the Law School's acquisition funds havebeen steadily reduced in their purchasing power inrecent years. Available information indicates thatthe acquisition amount available to the LawSchool falls behind that available to other majorlaw schools for this purpose. Continuation of theshortfall in available funds has a hurtful cumulative effect over a period of time.Many suggestions were made by the committee, including a careful focusing on those booksand journals deemed essential for acquisition, aswell as resorting to common central libraryfacilities, insofar as such are available, servingother schools in the midwestern region.The issue of additional library and office spaceneeds is not a new one. The Dean commented atlength on the shortage of space in the Law Schoolbuilding and outlined alternative proposals for additional facilities, each of which calls for substantial capital dollars. It was the consensus that asubcommittee would be helpful to work with afaculty committee on the general problems underthis heading. As part of its charge, this subcommittee will undertake to ascertain whether theLaw School might generate funds for library acquisitions without jeopardizing its allocation forthis purpose from the University budget. With respect to additional space needs, the subcommitteewill confer with the Development Office of theLaw School to correlate its recommendations asto funding with other areas for which the LawSchool is currently seeking financial support.Admission of Minority StudentsDean Morris pointed out that this subject matterhas been receiving increasing attention from theadmissions office of the School. The School isinterested in enlarging its minority enrollmentwithout downgrading its admission standards buthas found itself, as appears to be the case with most law schools, confronted with a pool of limited size whose members have a choice between anumber of law schools.The consensus was that the minority recruitment effort should be intensified and that recruiting information and experience obtainable fromother law schools and the business communitymight prove helpful. Again, committee membersvolunteered to be of assistance to the administration of the School, and this offer was welcomed.Many other suggestions and comments camefrom committee members at different sessionsduring the two days' program. Some related to theviews expressed by the students participating inthe session concerned with the curriculum, whostressed their inability to get across to the administration their views as to additions to or revisions in curriculum. Dean Morris stated that efforts will be intensified to insure that responsiblerepresentatives of the student body have lines ofcommunication open to the faculty committeecharged with continuing study of the offerings inthe curriculum.The foregoing report deals largely with problemareas where involvement of committee membersin varying degrees may prove helpful. Perhaps itis not Inappropriate in closing to express the viewthat members of the visiting committee in thecourse of their two-day visit to the Law Schoolfound a strong and thriving institution withenergetic administrative leadership, with a facultyimpressive in research and teaching, and withstudents whose academic qualifications at admission are of the highest order and whose attainments at graduation are reflected by the quality oftheir placements outside and beyond the School.Clearly this visiting committee constitutes aremarkable asset for the Law School. Its members come from the judiciary (both federal andstate), from large and small firms engaged in awide range of practice, from the teaching profession, and from a variety of business concerns.Many are graduates of law schools other than TheUniversity of Chicago Law School. Thirteenmembers of the committee made a special effortto attend the meeting, coming from cities far distant from Chicago. The mixture of interests andpoints of view evidenced by the members of thecommittee contributes to lively and constructivediscussion of the many problems — most of whichare common to major law schools today.George A. RanneyChairman75REPORT OF THE VISITING COMMITTEE TOTHE SCHOOL OF SOCIAL SERVICE ADMINISTRATIONMarch 8, 1977During the 1975-76 academic year, the VisitingCommittee to the School of Social Service Administration met three times, once during each ofthe three quarters. The first meeting of the year,in the fall quarter, addressed the work of theSchool as related to the human service needs offamilies and children. The winter quarter meetingwas devoted, as usual, to the dean's report on thestate of the School. In the spring quarter, the visiting committee heard President Wilson discuss hisviews on future directions for the school.Families and ChildrenThe fall quarter meeting marked the opening ofthe South Area Office of the Illinois Departmentof Children and Family Services in the WoodlawnSocial Services Center. The new office providesadded social service resources for residents of thesouth side of Chicago and training and researchopportunities for the School's students and faculty. The Center, located adjacent to the School,is owned by the University and operated in partnership with the local community. Mary LeeLeahy, the Director of the Department of Children and. Family Services, and Charles Johnson,the director of the new office, were the guests ofthe committee for the occasion.The opening of the office provided an opportunity for reviewing the activities of the School inthe area of children and families. A compilation offaculty publications, courses, and research onproblems of families and children was preparedfor the meeting.Three faculty members addressed the committee. Margaret K. Rosenheim, Helen Ross Professor, spoke of the problem of "juvenile nuisances," minors whose disruptive behavior wouldnot be illegal except for their status as minors.Runaways and truants are but two examples ofthese "status offenders." "Juvenile nuisances"pose a peculiar problem for society, which haslittle middle ground between prosecution andcomplete laissez-faire. A major research projectunderway at the School in the same area is a national study of alternatives to the placement ofchildren in locked facilities while awaiting courtaction. This project, supported by the federalgovernment and conducted by Professors Pap- penfort and Shireman, seeks to recommend substitutes for traditional detention programs.Leon W. Chestang, an assistant professor in theSchool, described his work on the special socialservice needs of minority group children. Drawing upon his research on character development inminority children, Mr. Chestang explicated someof the influences of growing up in a prejudiced,hostile environment. Though the focus of his research has been on the effect of such an environment upon minority children, his work is also applicable to other children suffering stigmatization,such as those with physical or mental disabilities.The third faculty member who addressed thecommittee was Theodore R. Marmor. Mr. Mar-mor spoke of his work on a plan for a nationalhealth insurance program for children. Because ofthe generally accepted importance of properhealth care for children, and given the constraintsof economics, he is proposing a national healthinsurance plan which concentrates on guaranteeing adequate health care to all children. The plan,which he has developed over the last severalyears, has been widely publicized and presentedto federal legislators for consideration.The three speakers illustrated the diversity inapproaches which characterizes the attempts ofthe School to grapple with the problems of designing and providing human services for families andchildren.State of the SchoolDean Richman's message at the committee'swinter quarter luncheon emphasized the variedways in which the School, through both its students and its faculty, relates to the community-at-large.As part of the regular degree program, studentsare placed in more than 100 agencies in theChicago area. These field placements range fromcasework agencies to correctional facilities togovernmental administrative centers.In addition to the bridges with the communityarising from the field work placements, the Schoolmaintains close relationships with communitygroups and programs through the consultationprovided by members of the faculty. Such consultation has been used by private and public agencies, on all levels — local, state, national, and international. The School, in turn, draws upon the76resources of experienced professionals in thecommunity for guest lectures and presentations.The Dean also described a new Ford Foundationfunded program on Chicago urban policy, thepurpose of which is to establish close ties betweenfaculty and students and the major administrativeagencies of Cook County and the city of Chicago.Of course, a major vehicle for our School's relationship to the community is the Social ServiceCenter, now a vital, going concern.Another reflection of the nature of the interplaybetween the School and the community can beseen in the complexity of the financial supportprovided to the School. During the 1975-76academic year, the School continued to receivesubstantial funding from outside sources, bothgovernmental and private. Federal support for theongoing activities of the School continued in theform of the consolidated grant from the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. Also,support from HEW, the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration of the Justice Department,several state departments, the Cook CountyBoard, and foundations and private individualshas been awarded for a variety of research activities of the faculty, including research in socialservice strategies, planning, and evaluation.Dean Richman reported that during theREPORT OF THE COUNCIL ELECTIONHELD MAY 1977May 5, 1977The balloting in the Council election closed Friday, April 29, 1977. Dr. Suzanne Oparil, whoseterm would have expired June 30, 1978, submittedher resignation to the secretary, effective September 1, 1977. Accordingly, it was necessary toelect seventeen new councilors to serve three-year terms to June 30, 1980, and one to serve aone-year term to June 30, 1978. The results werebased on 484 votes cast. The quota under theHare System was twenty-seven.The results of the election follow:I. Elected to serve three-year terms to June 30,1980 (names listed in alphabetical order):Robert Z. Aliber, Graduate School of BusinessJonathan L. Alperin, Mathematics, College academic year applications to the School increased again, the student enrollment remainedapproximately at the level it was during the previous year, and the percentage of minority studentscontinued to decline, as did the amount of available student aid.Future Directions of the SchoolThe spring quarter meeting of the visiting committee considered the question of future directionsfor the School. President Wilson was the guest ofthe committee, and he enlarged upon his recentletter to Dean Richman, in which he challengedthe School to build on its current program. Alively discussion followed Mr. Wilson's presentation.The other principal event which marked thespring meeting was the honoring of Hermon Dun-lap Smith with the naming of a Professorship atthe School in his honor. Mr. Smith was the firstchairman of the visiting committee and has servedthe School and the University in countless waysover the years. He is a Life Trustee of the University.Stanley G.

His grandfather, Edward Goodman, wasone of the original twenty-one members of theBoard of Trustees of The University of Chicagoand served on the Board from 1890 to 1909.Furthermore, this grandfather kept a series ofscrapbooks filled with historical material relatingboth to the old University of Chicago and the newone, covering fifty-one years from 1856 to 1907,which he presented to the University. Thomas W.Goodspeed found these scrapbooks to be a mineof information for his History of The University ofChicago: The First Quarter-Century.His mother, Mrs. Herbert E. Goodman, madegifts to the University in 1920 and 1922 to endow ascholarship fund for students in the DivinitySchool.Howard Goodman attended the UniversityElementary School and High School. Later, hewas elected to the Board of Trustees of The University of Chicago on May 13, 1942. He servedactively for twenty-six years until 1968 when, onreaching the age of seventy, he was made a LifeTrustee. The last official University event inwhich he participated was the rededication of theorgan in Rockefeller Memorial Chapel, October24, 1976, on completion of its modernization andrebuilding, made possible by a gift from Howardand Anna Goodman in memory of their son,Thomas Paton Goodman, who received a Ph.B.in 1943 from the College.Howard Goodman worked directly with fivepresidents of the University: Robert M. Hutchins, Lawrence A. Kimpton, George W. Beadle,Edward H. Levi, and John T. Wilson.Walter Leen, for many years Secretary of theBoard of Trustees of the University, said "Howard Goodman had a sense of responsible commitment. He was supportive of staff at all levels,in his quiet way, and with a keen sense of propriety. I could always go to him for careful, prudent,and sound advice."He provided significant leadership as chairmanof the Special Trustee Committee on the Neighborhood, which led to his active participation inthe South East Chicago Commission, and also aschairman of the Committee on Campus Planning.?Extracts from the tribute by Chauncy D. Harris at the HowardGoodman memorial service, February 5, 1977, in the Hyde ParkUnion Church, slightly edited. He worked closely with Lawrence A. Kimptonand Julian Levi in developing the urban renewalprogram for Hyde Park. Julian Levi, ExecutiveDirector of the South East Chicago Commission,said, "Howard Goodman was probably the singlemost valuable board member of the South EastChicago Commission in the early years. He wasactive from the very beginning and was responsible for establishing relations with other community organizations. At that time he was a memberof the Chicago Plan Commission. Furthermore,he was a member of the Local ConservationCommunity Council, the legal body which had toapprove the renewal plans for Hyde Park. He wasof crucial importance to these crucial years."Howard Goodman was so quiet and unassuming that his central and valuable role in many activities went largely unnoticed. He was not one tomake speeches. One of the most pleasant of alltraditions at The University of Chicago is an annual dinner given by the trustees for the faculty,with talks by a trustee, a faculty member, and thepresident. In 1960 Howard Goodman was prevailed upon to give the talk representing the trustees. He described some of the activities in whichhe helped so much, but modestly without evenmentioning his own role. I quote a few extractsfrom his talk:The now famous Mass Meeting was held in MandelHall in May of 1952 and the South East ChicagoCommission evolved as an organization to give leadership to the solution of problems in our own neighborhood. The University furnished, in the form of itschancellor, the spark that was necessary to get theorganization going, and maintain its leadership, andin addition provided substantial but not dominatingsupport. . . .The early motto, "We are here tostay," was spoken boldly and often, but, as timewent on, with real conviction. The commissionfound it possible to work with the police departmentin providing more volume of police protection andmore effective use of personnel. . . .The process ofbuilding blight by illegal conversions, where perhapstwenty-four families were being housed in a six-apartment building with share-the-bath-and-kitchen"privileges," was slowed up by the intensive workof the South East Chicago Commission and theHyde Park-Kenwood Community Conference withthe city legal and building departments. . . .Ourneighborhood groups went into action, and out of theendless planning, consultations with city officials,trips to Washington, and unbelievable drive, hascome the clearance of slums, the building of a shopping center, and new houses and apartments. . . .So much for the general University neighborhood.What about the campus itself? One of the most difficult decisions to be made in recent years by trustees and administrative officers was whether to continue the Gothic tradition in building. . . . The Ad-89ministration Building, which was an initial departurefrom traditional Gothic, paved the way for the complete swing to modern as exemplified in theWomen's Dormitory [now Woodward Court] at 58thand Woodlawn and the Law School on the south sideof the Midway. . . . The present policy of havingbuildings designed by several outstanding men in themodern field makes for an exciting campus and Ibelieve the buildings will stand the test of enduringinterest. . . .But bricks and mortar . . . must inevitably be secondary to the people who live in a community. . . .The delight of living in our University communityhas always been its people. When my family movedin shortly after the turn of the century, we had asneighbors Mrs. William Rainey Harper and her sonsand the Shailer Mathews. As the years have goneon, these particular people have been replaced byothers as charming and full of interest, and modest incompetition for material things. I count it as one ofthe real breaks I have had in life that I have beenprivileged to live and raise a family in our Universityneighborhood.Continuing the tradition of his grandfather andthe role of Baptists in founding The University ofChicago, Howard Goodman contributed greatlyto both the Baptist Theological Union and the Divinity School of the University. He was amember, chairman, or honorary member of theBoard of Trustees of the Baptist TheologicalUnion for forty-seven years, from 1930 to hisdeath in 1977, and took particular satisfaction inhis association with John Nuveen in this work.He also served as chairman of the Visiting Committee to the Divinity School.A letter of May 12, 1953, from the Board ofTrustees of the Baptist Theological Union recorded that Howard Goodman had served aspresident of this board for twelve years,1941-1953, had at all times performed the dutiesof his office with ability, tact, and enthusiasm, and had made an outstanding contribution to the workand purposes of the Union.Joseph M. Kitagawa, Dean of the DivinitySchool, wrote to Howard Goodman: "The Divinity faculty formally requested me to express toyou its gratitude for your service as chairman ofthe Divinity School's Visiting Committee. Theentire faculty is aware of the concern which youhave constantly kept for the welfare of the Divinity School. My colleagues most warmly expressedtheir sense of our indebtedness to you and askedme to convey to you the School's deep appreciation" (November 20, 1970).Howard Goodman was always helpful in anymatters on which his judgment was sought. Hewas gracious and genuine in his comments onothers. In the last conversation I had with him, inhis home a few weeks before his death, he spokeof his deep personal appreciation of the work ofRobert Reneker as chairman of the Board ofTrustees of the University. He expressedgratitude that John T. Wilson, President of theUniversity, had participated in the small dinneron the occasion of the rededication of the organ inRockefeller Chapel. Such appreciation of otherswas one mark of the greatness of spirit of HowardGoodman. Many were ennobled by associationwith him in noble causes. With the sustainingsupport of his wife, Anna Paton Goodman, Howard Goodman typified the highest traditions of responsible concerned community service.Chauncy D. Harris is Vice-President forAcademic Resources, the Samuel N. Harper Distinguished Service Professor in the Department ofGeography and in the College, and Director ofthe Center for International Studies.90THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO RECORDVICE PRESIDENT FOR PUBLIC AFFAIRSRoom 200, Administration Buildingo zT I — omj c ?3D O "0is ¦< 32-° >3 oz — — 0) (Q-5 2 3N-j. o ni J3.4*. — oCO 3
