AFTER go YEARS
College Awards Degree to Alumnus Who
Missed Graduation as Student

YELLOW SPRINGS. O., Dec. Il
-F1-In 1863, g handful OF students
at Antioch college won their de-
grees and graduate 1t was a hap
by commencement. for 1t signified
that although a great C-gil war had
shaken the little institution to its
foundations and almost caused 1t TO
perish when all the young men stu
dents left their classes TO enlist, vic
tory had come at last and the col
lege would go on.
For one young man, however.
there was a tipge of sadness. Hugh
T. Birch. who had undertaken 70
finish the four-year course in three
years. could not be graduated be-
cause he lacked completion Of 5ust
n required course, acting as cap
tain and pitcher on a victorious
baseball team. and doing four years
Of college work IN three, were Just
4 little too much.
Successful Attorney
He left for Chicago. studied law.
md became one OF the successful
attorneys of that city.
Now. 60 years afterward, the fac
ulty Of a renewed and vigorous Anti
och has voted 10 award Birch hts
degree-the bachelor OF science de-
grees as Of the class Of 1869. The
college which has called education
an adventure" and which makes
1t so by providing its students well
planned contracts with the realities
Of life. has seen that in this mans
life the requirements have been full
filled many times over.
Dean o. L. Inman. in presenting
Birch's name to the Antioch faculty,
pointed out that it was proposed 70
grant him, not an honorary degree.
but a bachelors degree, in recogni-
ton Of intellectual work actually
achieved and verified.
i've been on Glen Helen with Mr.
Birch" declared the dean. and I
stand ready to say that he knows
his natural history. If he could not
have met the requirements In 1869,
he certainly can now. I only wish
all students Of today could be de-
pended on to retain. so years hence,
so large a part Of what they have
learned"
Birch has continued his education
through the years, and possesses q
rare knowledge in astronomy. erto-
mology. botany, ornithology and ge-
ology. as well as a mastery OF his
chosen field. the law.
Recently Birch gave the college
one OF the most beautiful tracts in
Ohio, 700 acres adjoining the pre-
sent campus. which has been named
Glen Helen In memory Of his dau-
ghter.
