Excerpt from Report of the Committee of the General Assembly Appointed, at the Request of the Board of Trustees, to Investigate the Affairs of the Pennsylvania State College, Under a Joint Resolution Approved April 28, 1881: With the Laws and Decrees of Court Relating to Said College
On this important point it is extremely gratifying to find that the testi mony is absolutely unanimous. Whatever differences Of judgment have been expressed by witness respecting the general management and policy Of the institution, all, without exception, when questioned have expressed the fullest confidence in the perfect integrity with which all the funds have been expended and accounted for. Considering the well-known financial embarrassments of the institution in its earlier days, and the extent of the interests involved, it is a matter Of just pride to find that no shadow of suspicion of dishonesty rests upon the administration of this great public trust. This is no more than was to have been expected from the known character of the many eminent citizens Of the State who have constituted the board Of trustees; but it is none the less satisfactory and none the less due to them and to the State to record the fact.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is the report and analysis of an 1881 investigation into the Pennsylvania State College by a committee of the Pennsylvania Legislature. The investigation was prompted by allegations of mismanagement and a failure to meet the requirements of the 1862 Morrill Land-Grant Act which established the college with a mandate to focus on 'agriculture and the mechanic arts'. The report is organized into three distinct sections. Section one investigates "whether the present management of the college is in compliance with the requirements of the Act of Congress of July 2, 1862", section two investigates financial management, and section three investigates the three experimental farms the college had established, which were one of the points of controversy in the allegations against the college's administration. The report found the college to be in compliance with the 1862 act, that its financial management was above reproach, and that the experimental farms were valuable but underfunded. The report's significance is in exonerating the college's administration from serious charges of mismanagement that had hindered its development.
