Our college colors were chosen at a meeting of the literary de- partment held in the chapel on Saturday, February 12, 1867, when Milton Jackson, '67, Albert H. Pattengill, '68, and J. Eugene Jackson, '69, the committee appointed for the purpose, reported a resolu- tion in favor of " azure-blue and maize", which was adopted. In about ten years the colors came to be styled, as they are now styled, yel- low and blue. The original blue was neither light nor very dark, and the yellow was THE PRESIDENT'S HOUSE. decidedly golden. Never has there been any warrant for the sickly yellow and the faded blue furnished by some of the tradesmen of Detroit and Ann Arbor.
Of course the colors are made much of in all possible ways. The best of our songs is called " The Yellow and Blue ", and one of the college papers had the same name. They are used in college buttons, a yellow ground with blue letters "U of M " or yellow letters in a blue field; or the letters may be blue and yellow coun- ter-charged on a field divided by a diagonal between the colors. Minute pennants attached to stickpins and enamelled to show the colors and " U of M " or " Michigan " are often seen.
Two years after the adoption of the colors a discussion con- cerning college caps began. Class caps were of earlier origin. Finally, after prolonged debate, the students of the academic de- partment-nobody dreamed in those days of consulting other stu- dents-voted by a large majority at a meeting held in the chapel, Saturday morning, November 27, 1869, to adopt a cap. Professor Williams and Acting-President Frieze strongly favored the move- ment, the latter declaring that a cap which he could wear without

reference to changes of fashion would be most acceptable to one of his slender income. The cap selected was not the Oxford cap-the regular mortar-board. It was made of fine blue cloth, with square top, to the centre of which was attached a black tassel. Above the moveable visor were the letters U M, and just beneath them the class numeral. The failure to designate to what department the wearer belonged was soon noted, and on other grounds it was felt by not a few students that the thing desired had not been found. The caps arrived in January, 1870, and were donned by a majority of the Faculty and by many students. But the sopho- mores, who had previously obtained the class-caps, would not adopt the University affair, and before long those who had the lat- ter grew tired of it. The Chronicle of November 5, 1870, said " At present it is a meaningless oddity, and, unless more generally worn, ought to be discarded entirely ". In January, 1877, another cap, a genuine mortar-board, was adopted, but The Chronicle of March 3, 1877, declared " Thus far only about one-fourth of the literary students have purchased them, and the demand is on the decline ". Six months later the same paper said " The Oxford Cap has already become a stranger in our streets, an early victim of the fickleness of the students' preferences ".
Following the not altogether dignified custom of the students of other institutions of learning, a peculiar cheer or "yell " has been adopted-or, more accurately speaking, has been developed- by our undergraduates. According to The Chronicle of April 28, 1883, the " yell " at that date was " Rah, rah, rah ! U-of-M ! ! rah, rah, rah, rah ! ! ! ". More dangerous to the ear, and there- fore more effective, is the present cheer: U. of M., rah, rah, rah, rah ! U. of M. rah, rah, rah, rah !! Hoo rah, Hoo rah, Michi- gan, Michigan, rah, rah, rah ! ! !
CHAPTER II
GRADUATES AND FORMER STUDENTS
An official list of the graduates of the University was first printed in 1848, as an appendix to the annual catalogue of that year. It is headed " Alumnorum Catalogus ", and contains four classes, thus: '45, eleven men; '46, seventeen; '47, twelve; '48, sixteen; total, 56 alumni. This corresponds with the roll as pub- lished in the general catalogue of 1891, except that '45 is credited in the latter book with twelve men; Mr. W. B. Wesson making the twelfth because of his nunc pro tunc degree given in 1873. Of the 56 men graduated 1845-48, thirty-two have died.
The general catalogue has passed through three editions, those of 1864, 1871, and 1891; and to these should be added the admir- able catalogue issued in 1880 by Theodore R. Chase, with the ap- proval of the Board of Regents. Forty pages containing the names of 999 graduates made up the edition of 1864. Of the alumni proper, the graduates of the collegiate department, nineteen classes, from '45 to '63, with 428 members, were enrolled. The thirteen graduated classes of the medical school were credited with 363 men, and for the law school four classes and 144 graduates were given. Sixty-four graduates, forty-four of whom belonged to the literary department, were marked with the "fatal star ". No account of non-graduates was taken by the general catalogue of 1864; residences were not designated; and the biographical notes were few and meagre.
The general catalogue of 1871-misnamed " Triennial"-was much like its predecessor, except that it included eight additional classes and the names of about 2,000 recent graduates. It was a pamphlet of eighty-eight pages. " The Michigan University Book " edited and published in 1880 by Theodore R. Chase of '49, is a fine volume of 400 pages. It includes the graduates of 1880, gives the names and classes of non-graduates, and presents a total of 7,542 names, the total number of graduates enrolled being about 6,000. Mr. Chase's book is especially valuable for its geographi- cal index, a feature omitted from the general catalogue of 1891. The latter contains 472 handsomely printed octavo pages bound in

cloth boards with gilt top. According to the figures of this cata- logue the total number of persons ( up to and including Commence- ment in 1890) who had received degrees was 10, 127, the number of those upon whom the ordinary degrees of the collegiate department had been conferred being 2,524. A count shows that the number of non-graduates enrolled in this catalogue is about 9, 400, of which total the college proper claims 2,500, the medical school 4,300, and the law school 2,050.
Thus far about 14,000 persons have been graduated from the University. The number of those who have received the ordinary collegiate degrees is 3,990. The degree of M. D. has been con- ferred upon 3, 190 persons, that of LL. B. upon 5,765, that of Ph. C. upon 744, that of D. D. S. upon 738, that of M. D. (Homœo- pathic) upon 323. It would seem that the number of academic non-graduates is about equal to that of the graduates, that degrees are received by not more than forty per cent of the medical matriculates, and that about two-thirds of the law-school men finish their course. The total number of those who have received instruction in the halls of our Alma Mater is about 27,000. It is supposed that about 1, 500 of the graduates THE HURON RIVER. have died. Edmund Fish is believed to be the sole survivor of the oldest graduated class, that of '45, George E. Parmelee, also of that class, not having been heard from for many years. Eighty- two of the 145 graduates of the first ten classes are known to have passed away.
Any attempted list of those alumni and former students who have been especially prominent in the various walks of life must necessarily be both defective and invidious. The names to be dealt with are so numerous, our graduates are so widely dispersed, and changes occur so frequently, that mistakes of fact are not merely possible but certain. And even when the facts are known the problem is one of selection; a few must be chosen to represent many; and errors of judgment are inevitable. It must be remem- bered also that many alumni who never have held political, judi- cial, or educational offices, who have done little that can be sum-

marized in print, may as successful lawyers, doctors, bankers, or manufacturers be the leaders of the communities wherein they re- side. This much having been said by way of forestalling criticism, an effort will be made to name the distinguished sons of our com- mon Alma Mater.

'57, Governor of Minnesota, 1874-76; Lyman U. Humphrey, '68 l, Governor of Kansas, 1889-93; Ridgley C. Powers, '63, Military Governor of Mississippi, 1871-74. Although the chief magistracy of Michigan has not yet been exercised by any graduate (O. M. Barnes, A. B. '50, having been defeated by his Republican opponent in the elec- tion of 1877), yet the office of Lieutenant-Governor has been held by Dwight May, A. B. '49, and by Thomas B. Dunstan, '73 4, both former students at Ann Arbor; and State Senator Joseph R. Mc- Laughlin, B. S. 1'77, recently acted as Lieutenant-Governor. Henry A. Conant, '65, was Michigan's Secretary of State, 1883-87. Edward H. Butler, '61, Benjamin D. Pritchard, '62 7, and James M. Wilkinson, '64, LL. B. '64, have all served Michigan as State

Treasurers. William C. Stevens, LL. B. '68, was Auditor Gen- eral, 1883-87, and the post of Attorney-General of Michigan has been held by Dwight May, A. B. '49, Fred A. Maynard, A. B. '74, LL. B. '76, S. V. R. Trowbridge, '76, Byron D. Ball, LL. B. '61, Isaac Marston, LL. B. '61, Jacob J. VanRiper, '62 l, and Moses Taggart, LL. B. '67. The alumni who have held like offices in other states are too numerous to mention. Among the alumni to whom large cities have turned for good government are Isaac M. Weston, '67, formerly Mayor of Grand Rapids, William C. May- bury, '70, LL. B. '71, now Mayor of Detroit, and Cyrus P. Wal- bridge, LL. B. '74, recently Mayor of St. Louis.

'49, now deceased, President of the Ohio Wesleyan Female College; and Mrs. Alice Freeman Palmer, A. B. '76, President of Wellesley College, 1881-87.
Of course our Alma Mater has drawn heavily upon her own sons to fill her Faculties, until many of the leading chairs are occupied by men who formerly were students here. Without attempting to give a complete list these may be named: Alfred DuBois, A. B. '48, Assistant Professor of Chemistry, 1857-63; Edward P. Evans, A. B. '54, Professor of Modern Languages and Literature, 1863-70; Levi T. Griffin, A. B. '57, Fletcher Professor of Law, 1886-97; James C. Watson, A. B. '57, Professor of Astronomy, 1863-79; 3

How vast a debt the educational interests of our country owe to Michigan may be learned by reading the roll of those whom our University has sent to teach in other halls of learning.
