The business meeting of the Alumni Association was held
at 2 ]). m. June 8th in the Austin Society hall. The at
tendance was large and the sentiment of the whole body
was heartily and unanimously in favor of any measures that
were calculated to advance the interests of the college and
of the association.
The meeting was presided over by the President, B. C.
Pittuck, ’94, with F. E. Geiseeke, Secretary.
Immediately* after the reading and adoption of the min
utes of the previous year’s meeting, it was moved that the
regular order of business be suspended and that the associa
tion proceed to the consideration of a new constitution to
take the place of the old one, which had long proved un
satisfactory and inadequate to the needs of the association,
as it existed only in tradition. In addition, as Professor
Tilson stated later, nearly all of the amendments to the old
constitution had been destroyed by fire, making some action
necessary. Professor P. S. Tilson, as the representative of
the resident members of the association, presented to the
Association for considration a constitution which they had
prepared with great care some months ago. This constitu
tion was read and proved so satisfactory that it. was adopted
as a whole and without debate.
Mr. A. M. Ferguson xaesented a resolution to organize a
bureau to be managed by the Alumni Association for the
purpose of aiding graduates of this college in securing situa
tions and* advancement in their chosen professions. This
was adopted and bids fair to be a marked success.
