Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Reports of the President and the Treasurer of Oberlin College, 1936-1937 Other special tasks were the studies which led to and supported the recommendation for the restoration of the regular salary rate; the devising, the repeated revising, and the process leading to the adoption of the plan for a unified deanship of women, discussed below in Section VI of this report; and the preparation of the General Statement of Needs, which is referred to in Section I of this report and appears in modified and summary form in Section III. In the late spring and summer preparations for the coming Centennial of the beginning of college education for women and of coeducation on the college level took much time and thought. During the first semester the President directed honors work and a private reading course, in Italian Literature of the Renaissance, for two students; during the second semester, with Professors Fletcher and Gove, he directed a private reading course for one student in the history of the curriculum of the American college; and during the second semester he taught a regular two-hour course in Dante in English, which he hopes to repeat annually. His only major activity outside of Oberlin was as chairman of a group of college presidents interested in the improvement of intercollegiate athletic conditions. This group met in January in connection with the annual meeting of the Association of American Colleges, and will meet again next January. The President spoke at a Sunday morning service in the University of Chicago Chapel in October; and had great pleasure in receiving and accepting an invitation of the New York Alumni to address them in January on problems of peace. In February, while on a brief vacation in Alabama, he addressed by long distance telephone the Oberlin Alumni of Southern California, meeting in Los Angeles.
