ACTION OF TRE BOARD OF TRUSTEES.
At regular meeting of the Board of
Trustees of the Willamette University,
held at the chapel of said University on
Wednesday, the 18th day of January,
1876, the following, among other pro-
ceedings, were had. The special COM
mittee of three, to whom was referred
the petition of students of the Univers-
ity relative to the reinstatement of
Professor Thomas H. Crawford, pre-
sented their report as follows:
SALEM, December 15, 1875.
To the Trustees of Willamette Uni
UerSity:-Your committee, appointed to
consider the petition of students to re-
instate Professor Crawford, report that
they have endeavored carefully to dis
charge the duty assigned to them.
Knowing, as does the committee, the
social qualities, genteel department,
gentle and quiet disposition and kind
and sympathetic nature of the Professor,
no surprise is felt on learning the at
tachment of those associated with, or
who have sustained the intimate re1a-
tion of pupil to him.
Having graduated here, and for many
years connected with the University as
pupil and teacher, no wonder that all
Trustees, students, and this entire COM
munity-are firmly attached to him.
That the Trustees have as much re-
spect and esteem for him, and as highly
value his services as an educator as do
those whose names appear on the petit
tiOn, your committee have no doubt;
yet, circumstances have much to do in
matters of business, and the Trustees
have better opportunity of knowing
the condition and wants of this institu-
tiOn, and ought to be more competent to
judge of the responsibility of those en-
trusted with its management than do
the students, though they may possess
sufficient discernment to detect the in
fiuences-moral, financial and religious
that affect its interests.
Therefore, your committee, with all
due Difference to the memOrialists, and
sympathizing with them in this, their
aff1iction, and, without stating theil
reasons, recommend that the prayer Of
the petitioners be not granted.
All of which is respectfully submitted
