Reading the Roll of Honor.

Mr. President, Ladies and Gentle- 

 men, and Fellow Graduates : In 

 conformity with an old-established 

 custom of this institution, a Roll of 

 Honor of the Class of 1900 was 

 selected. Now it is customary in 

 selecting this Roll of Honor to take 

 the names of such students as have 

 attained a very high average, both 

 in their final written examinations 

 and the laboratory term work, that 

 is the practical work, and the num- 

 ber is usually thirteen. In compil- 

 ing the Roll of Honor for the pres- 

 ent class, however, it was found 

 that two students attained exactly 

 the same number of marks and, of 

 course, the same number of per 

 cent. That embarrassed the selec- 

 tion somewhat, and so not to be un- 

 just to anybody this Roll of Honor 

 was increased to fourteen, so that 



accounts for the fact that the pres- 

 ent Roll of Honor consists of the 

 names of fourteen students or now 

 graduates. 



As you have already been told, 

 the total number of marks possible 

 for any one to attain was 1000 and 

 out of these points, possible marks, 

 Mr. John W. Sclegel received 931 

 or 93.1 per cent.; Mr. John P. 

 Regan, 921 or 92.1 per cent.; Mr. 

 Harry B. Winne, 903 or 90.3 per 

 cent.; Mr. Robert C. Medl, 885 or 

 88.5 per cent. ; Mr. Karl Dahlberg, 

 884 or 88.4 per cent.; Mr. Wm. H. 

 Wilson, 883 or 88.3 per cent.; Mr. 

 Theodore F. Endress, 875 or 87.5 

 per cent.; Mr. Alexander M. Hep- 

 burn, 862 or 86.2 per cent.; Mr. 

 Frank D. Morse, 860 or 86 per cent., 

 Mr. Wesley C. Foster 850 or 85 per 

 cent.; Mr. Reuben T. Groves, 841 

 or 84. 1 per cent. ; Mr. Isidore Bero- 

 wicz 837 or 83.7 per cent. The 

 next two gentlemen have received 

 exactly the same number of marks 

 and their names are read ofi" in al- 

 phabetical order, that is, they oc- 

 cupy the same position as far as 

 rank in the class is concerned ; I 

 simply read them off in alphabetical 

 order. Mr. Arthur H. Goodale and 

 Mr. Albert P. G. Kahler, who have 

 received 835 points or 83.5 per cent. 



Now, young gentlemen, it was my 

 privilege and my extreme pleasure 

 as a member of the Faculty to have 

 been in daily contact with you for 

 the last two years. Very many 

 pleasant recollections couple them- 

 selves with that contact, I am sure. 

 I also want to say that in view of 

 the very severe examinations to
