ACTING PRESIDENT OF MIDDLE
BURY.
Edward ID. Collins Quoted as Doing
Great Work"

The following is a well-deserved
tribute to DR. Edward d. Collins, an
Orleans boy, reprinted from The
Middlebury Campus, college paper.
"In a world where a mans ability
is too often measured by the degree
of success with which he keeps him
self in the public eye, and his worth
by his frankness in heralding his own
achievements, it is a refreshing thing
to find a man who does big things so
quietly and unassumingly that it is
with a start of surprise that we real
ize that they are big. Middlebury
has more than one such man on her
faculty and among their number is
her acting president.
"When DR.. Collins took the reins
of college government this fall, and
proved his ability to drive with a
steady hand, the college students rec
ogniZed the fact that here was a man
in their midst whom they had not
until now really discovered" and
with this realization came a convic-
ton that his qualities were of the
sort that deserved a degree of public
appreciation that they were not get
ting.
DIR. Collins life thus far has been
mostly spent in educational work. At
ter his graduation from Yale in 1896
ne became a history assistant in his
own alma mater and was connected
with that department of the universe
ty until 1901. For the next two years
he was treasurer and managing di-
rector of the Canadian Carbonate Co.,
Montreal. but in 1904, he went back
to his work as an educator, making a
splendid record as the principal of
Johnson Normal school.
"His prediction for history, and
his keen interest in the state in
which he was working led him to
make a study of the history of Yer
mont. The result was a textbook
which is used in almost every ele-
mentary school in the state.
From the normal school at John
son. DR.. Collins came to Middiebury
to occupy the chair of pedagogy. and
to him is due a large share Of the
credit for the reputation which the
pedagogical department of the college
enjoys among the educators of the
country.
But DR.. Collins has given his fin
est service to Middlebury this year.
When he took the presidents chair,
the college was in an unprecedented
state of uncertainty, almost of con-
{
bers of the faculty were unable to re
sumo their duties, and the coming of
the S. A. T. c. had upset old systems,
necessitated an entire reorganization
of every department, and had intro
duced new and puzzling problems of
administration and discipline. Each
time that it seemed as if order had
been brought out of chaos a message
from Washington would upset the re
suits of weeks of labor. But DR.. Col
Inns proved himself equal to his task
and when the signing of the arnnis-
tice brought back normal conditions,
the wheels of the college machinery
were running smoothly.
at is with the deepest appreciation
/ that Middlebury acknowledges her
| debt of gratitude to a man who has
given her his best endeavors for so
many years. guided her safely
| through a critical period of her exis-
tence, and launched her upon what is
/ believed to be a new and still more
successful chapter of her history"
