A LOSS TO THE UNIVERSITY

The many undergraduates who have been so fortunate as to have studied under Professor Atwood during his all too short connection with the University will be the first to express their regret at his departure and to congratulate him on his newly-won and well-deserved honors.

The number of men who have listened to Professor Atwood's remarkably graphic and comprehensive lectures, and the unusually large group of students who have invariably clustered around the desk at the lecture's close to put every sort of question to their sympathetic teacher, are telling evidences of the hold Professor Atwood exercised over his pupils. In the undergraduate's eyes, his departure leaves a serious gap in his department; and many students who, in selecting their courses of study, seek "the man rather than the course," will no longer thumb carefully the pages on which courses in Physical Geography are described in the Elective Pamphlet.

In his relations with college men in the University, Professor Atwood has exhibited all the qualities that should be inherent in a college executive. The undergraduates of the University can see nothing but further success for Professor Atwood and prophesy the extension of his already brilliant career in his new position as president of Clark College.
