Abstract:
Evaluation of Samuel Chandler Earle's 1911 presentation to the Society for the Promotion of Engineering Education demonstrates Earle's role as a key player in the shift of a technical writing course which combined both the goals of an engineering curriculum with the ultimate, real-world needs of the graduated engineer. Earle's Tufts Experiment, discussed in his paper, “English in the Engineering School at Tufts College” [1], would not only provide the impetus for a decade of discussion among engineering and English educators, but would provide, in part, the impetus for the Committee on English

Traditional Chinese theatre seems to appeal to audiences across the world more for its exquisite acting than for its literary qualities. Yet Mei Lanfang, Tang Xianzu and Li Yu all assert that good acting must be firmly rooted in its literary base. What compelled these masters to go out of their way to emphasize the importance of the written text, argues William H. Sun, was precisely the failure of many traditional actors to take it seriously, preferring to rely on superficial virtuosities.

Abstract:
Tufts College, traditionally focused on undergraduate education in the arts and sciences, responded to the opportunities of the postwar years with new emphases on research and doctoral-level programs. A new name, “Tufts University,” signified the change. The leaders of Tufts intended, however, to retain a primary emphasis on undergraduate work. During these same years, a new university, Brandeis, sponsored by a group of American Jews, joined the state’s academic community. Brandeis’s founders also conceived their institution as centrally concerned with undergraduate education, although they too intended to build a modest array of graduate programs, especially in the arts and sciences. In projecting their development during the 1950s and 1960s, Tufts and Brandeis set out to become different versions of a distinctive institutional idea: the college-centered university. By the early 1940s, President Leonard Carmichael of Tufts, like his counterparts at Harvard and M.I.T., had come to regard World War II as a time of opportunity, despite immediate, war-related problems of enrollment and finance. Carmichael’s wartime reports referred repeatedly to new possibilities arising from the military emergency. He welcomed a Navy R.O.T.C. unit to Medford as a chance for greater visibility as well as for public service. He speculated that increased awareness of international issues would benefit the Fletcher School. Most important of all, given Tufts’s history of straightened finances, was the possibility of new federal support. “It is ... not too early,” Carmichael told his trustees in the middle of the war, “for all of us to do what we can to see to it that the men who administer our postwar education [at the federal level]... have an appreciation of the importance to this nation of colleges and universities with varied objectives and varied bases of administration and support.” If federal funds were to become available, Carmichael wanted to be sure that private institutions got their share, and he assured his board that “every effort is being made to maintain our relationships with the armed services... so that Tufts’s peculiar qualities—a university-college in which teaching and research go forward together—may be maintained ...”

Abstract:
The Tisch College of Civic Life at Tufts University, in collaboration with the organization Where There Be Dragons, created the Tufts Civic Semester program. This is a transformational, first-semester program that combines an academic and experiential learning experience away from the Tufts campus, and there are different themes and core elements depending on the site location, including environmental sustainability, indigenous sovereignty, and immigrant rights. Each year, cohorts of 8-12 students spend their first semester as a living learning community engaging with community organizations and building civic skills to promote equity and justice. The program has run in Urubamba, Peru and the Southwestern United States to date, with plans of expansion to additional global locations. This chapter will provide information on program themes, including global perspective taking and developing personal social responsibility, program logistics, and program evaluation.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the economic returns to funding scientific research. The Bank of Boston did an analysis of the economic impact of scientific research on the local economy. Boston has eight major research universities: Harvard, MIT, Boston University, Boston College, Brandeis, Northeastern, U-Mass Boston, and Tufts. These eight universities employed 51,000 people and provided indirect employment for 37,000, not counting those workers employed by the university hospitals, themselves massive employers. Every year, 32,000 students graduated from these eight universities, many of whom remained in the local economy. Each year, the universities produced over 250 patents, over 280 commercial licenses, and roughly forty start-ups. Altogether, the universities contributed $7.4 billion to the regional economy. To pay for this, the federal government provided $1.5 billion in research contracts and grants. This is a 393 percent rate of return on the federal government's investment.

On one of my last days in Guanajuato, I visit the botanical garden and nature reserve, El Charco Ingenio, outside San Miguel de Allende. Driving from Ciudad Guanajuato, I climb up from the city (2,000 meters), through the mountains, rising up into the woodlands of pine and live oak (2,500 meters). This is likely the route Sessé and Mociño followed as they searched these mountains for plants they had not yet collected. The scent of pines is strong and sweet, the road narrow and twisting. I catch glimpses of the rocky soils of eroding lava cores until, once through the high pass, the terrain slowly morphs into savanna plains starting back around 2,000 meters. My colleague, geographer Karl Butzer, described this terrain as “Rough hill country and uplands, normally formed by ignimbrites tuffs with duricrusts, or lavas, appears to have had a medley of vegetation types, with scattered woodlands of mesquite or acacia, probably open” (1997, 162).

Abstract:
When John and William Bartram set off for Florida from their Philadelphia farm on a July day in 1765, a vast and largely unknown continent lay before them. Journeying in search of novel and unusual plants for their English patrons, the virgin territories of the southeastern United States provided fertile grounds for their biological explorations. These pioneering naturalists, father and son, lived at a time when new scientific discoveries literally lay around each corner. On this trip alone, they were able to collect or draw more than 200 species new to science. One species that slipped away from them was a “very curious” shrub they found growing along the banks of the Altamaha River in Georgia. Sporting beautiful white flowers accented by a central tuft of orange stamens, the shrubs unfortunately yielded no ripe seeds. Only on a return trip to Georgia some eight years later was son William able to collect seed and bring the species into cultivation—and to the attention of the scientific world. Given the name Franklinia alatamaha, in honor of Bartram’s close friend and fellow Quaker Benjamin Franklin, the shrub turned out to represent a completely new branch of the camellia family. Thanks to its beautiful flowers and foliage, Franklinia quickly became a popular ornamental, and even today it is widely cultivated in gardens. But Bartram’s horticultural introduction of this unique plant was fortuitous for another reason: The species has disappeared from its native habitat along the Altamaha River and was last seen in the wild in 1803. Sadly, Franklinia represents one of the first species known to vanish from the American landscape. While the American frontier formally closed in 1892, the biological discovery of America continues to this day. Not all discoveries are as spectacular as the “curious shrubs” the Bartrams had the good fortune to find, but each, in its own way, is just as important. The ongoing process of exploring our biological frontiers gradually fills in the fabric of our knowledge about the United States and its ecosystems. The knowledge generated by this basic inventory also serves as the backbone of our efforts to protect our nation’s biological diversity.
