Excerpt from First Annual Report of the President to the Board of Trustees: Oct; 4, 1890 When called upon to consider the invitation with which the trustees of this university honored me, two and a half years ago, I was in an institution which, in the less than fifteen years of its existence, had done a work in stimulating other institutions, and in advanc ing the highest standards, which was, as I think all cheerfully admit, beyond comparison in the recent his tory of higher education in this country. After study ing Worcester and the New England situation, I saw the opportunity here to be so great for a further and at least no less epoch-making step, that I felt that assured career, and even an important department, new in this country and full of fascinations, and in the most oriti cal stage of its development, ought not to weigh against it. Permission was at once given me to begin my preparations for this important work by studying foreign institutions for a year. I visited every Euro pean country but Portugal, and found everywhere great and surprising advances since my own student life abroad had ended.

Excerpt from Annual Report of the President and Treasurer, 1909 To the Board of Trustees of Wellesley College: - In presenting my eleventh annual report to the Board of Trustees I must gratefully acknowledge their kindness in granting me a leave of absence, which became necessary owing to severe illness in the spring of 1908. As the autumn approached, it seemed evident that it would be unwise for me to undertake a winter at Wellesley, and I must thank the Trustees for the cordial way in which they granted me a year's vacation. Happily, it was not necessary to avail myself of the whole of it, and I returned to college by the middle of May. As Commencement Day this year did not come until June 29th, I thus had more than six weeks of the very busiest of the college life. I must first of all express my warm appreciation of the able manner in which affairs had been conducted during my absence by the Dean and by the administrative officers associated with her. With the increasing number of students, the work of the Dean's office becomes more and more onerous, the entering class of 1908 numbering 414. The admission of so large a number involves an enormous amount of detail work, and the Dean's office force has had to be increased. These students have come to us very largely on certificate, and from all parts of the country. The various departments for taking care of the new students are now so well organized that the opening days move very smoothly; but it remains true that there is a great deal of work for the officers of administration to perform. This is not only on the strictly academic side, but in the housing of new students, making sure not only that college dormitories but the private houses in the village are in readiness for them.
