Excerpt from General Register of the Officers and Alumni, 1892-1902 This is the first General Register to be published by the University. It is intended to give a concise history of the personnel of the University for the first ten years, closing with July 1, 1902. In addition to the data obtained directly from the persons named in the volume, much information was found in the reports of the Secretary of the Board of Trustees; the Auditor's accounts the records in the Recorder's office the Annual Registers the University Record; the student publications, and the University Scrap Book in the General Library. The officers of instruction and administration have been arranged as far as possible according to the plan adopted in the Annual Register. Members of the faculties have been arranged on the basis of rank and seniority. Those who have offered courses during the Summer Quarters only are placed after the names of the permanent officers. The data concerning each officer is limited to his career as a member of the faculties of the University of Chicago. In the list of collegiate alumni appear the names of the graduates of the old University of Chicago from 1861 to 1886. By formal act of the Board of Trustees on February 2, 1891, the degrees of a.b. And sb. Conferred by the old University were confirmed and re-enacted by the new University, thus making these graduates alumni of the present institution. On July 13, 1891, the Baptist Union Theological Semi nary became the Divinity School of the University, and the graduates of the Seminary became alumni of the new Divinity School. With the name of each honorary alumnus has been published the statement used at the time the degree was conferred. The present volume contains all graduates up to July 1, 1902. All students graduating after July 1 of one year and before July 1 of the next year are enrolled as graduates of the latter year. The names of all persons who received appointments as officers of administration and instruction or as fellows before July 1, 1902, are included under their respective departments.
