A history of the amazing women who have left their mark on the Empire State. The significant events in New York State history are well known to educators, students and New Yorkers alike.

The fourth in a series of volumes on the history of the university focuses on the chancellorship of William Pearson Tolley, whose uniquely distinctive management style contributed to the university's rapid development.

Incorporating interviews with alumni, administrators, students, and chancellors Melvin Eggers and Tolley, Greene discusses the intense building and growth period of Tolley's twenty-seven year administration.

Hail Mount Hermon! A TRIBUTE
Author: Jigme N. Kazi
Publisher: Prowess Publishing
ISBN: 1545753199
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 1023
Book Description
Published in the year of the school’s 125th anniversary, Hail Mount Hermon! A Tribute is a tribute not only to the school’s founders, principals and teachers but also to all Hermonites (alumni) of all eras and ages who have great love and affection for their alma mater and hopes that Mount Hermon School looks back to its great legacy and lives on to reach greater heights. The book chronicles the school’s tragic beginning soon after its opening in 1895, founding of Queen’s Hill School in the beginning of the 20th century, the establishment of Mount Hermon School at the present campus in Darjeeling in 1929–30, and how the school has grown and progressed thereafter right up to the present era. Throughout its 125 years of existence (1895–2020), Mount Hermon School, founded by Christian missionaries of America in the latter part of the 19th century, had its share of ups and downs. However, the school was able to pull through hard times mainly because of the faith, dedication and determination of its leadership. Major events and renowned personalities of the school are well-documented in this book for posterity to note the spirit in which the school was initially founded and why it survived for so long despite trying circumstances to become one of the leading educational institutions in India. The efforts of the Hermonites and their concern for their alma mater to regain its past glory is recorded in the latter part of this book. Their love and concern for their alma mater is a profound reflection of the spirit that not only gave birth to this great institution but kept it going in the past 125 years through troubled times.
