For the fourth college in Lehigh, the College of Education, people must go back to the generation at the beginning of the 20th century and the drowning presidency (1895–1904). Thomas M. Devo had been a graduate student in Europe and the United States before he got a job as a chemistry professor in lafayette. His teaching strength and unique views are well known there, and he finally got a position at MIT at 1885. However, this was before Lehigh, 1883 delivered his graduation speech. The university was obviously impressed with him and invited him back to take the leadership position in 12. With Lehigh, the principal drowned is the first to assume that all courses are generally equal, and there are many roads leading to the position of an educated and truth-seeking individual. Submergence supports many interests, one of which is the encouragement of engineering graduate students' study and the combination of engineering and art. But as an extensive intellectual, he has many auxiliary projects, one of which is to educate and prepare future middle school teachers. 1902 course "methods of teaching history and civics" was later developed into the predecessor of the institute of education under the compassionate leadership of H.S. Drinker (1905–1920), although it was called the "Department of Philosophy, Psychology and Education" at that time. It was, and is, a postgraduate course in a strict sense. The drowned president died in the office, 1 1 month 16, 1904.
In the fourth college of Lehigh College: the College of Education, we must return to the dawn of the 20th century and the submerged presidency. Thomas studied as a graduate student in Europe and the United States, and later found a job as a chemistry professor in lafayette. Because of his teaching ability and special viewpoint, he finally got the position of MIT at 1885. However, at the graduation ceremony of 1883 pressure reducing valve, this is impossible. Obviously, Lihai University left a deep impression on him and invited him to be the leader of 12 years. In Lehigh, President Thomas was one of the first people to assume universal equality in all the courses he studied. In this position, there are many roads leading to the goal of an educated and truth-seeking person. President Thomas supports many interests, including encouraging engineering graduate students to study and integrating engineering with art, but as a broad intellectual, he has many auxiliary projects, one of which is education, and the other is to prepare for future middle school teachers. The course of 1902 was to teach history and civics, and later developed to the beginning of the College of Education under the leadership of the sympathetic chairman of the drinker (1905- 1920), although it was later called the Department of Philosophy, Psychology and Education. This is, and is, a rigorous postgraduate course. 1904 1 161October 16, President Thomas died in his office.
However, in the way of university education, we can see the continuous concern for graduates with all-round development. As a separate postgraduate course, this is based on the principle that people need to learn the main subjects well before they can learn how to teach others. Therefore, the future teachers of Lihai University will generally get a bachelor's degree in professional fields and a master's degree in education. The latter degree, together with the MBA degree from business school, is one of the most popular graduate programs in Lihai University. After World War II, when Martin Dewey Whitaker, the eighth president of Lihai University, was in office, it was urgent to increase the scope and depth of engineering projects for college graduates, just as the people who drowned at the beginning imagined. This is a difficult road for Lihai University. In order to realize this successfully, along the route planned by managers, it will involve many necessary and interdependent aspects, such as knowledgeable professors, ambitious students, various degrees and courses, space, equipment and private and public funds. If universities want to obtain graduate courses with the same quality and reputation as undergraduate students in science, mathematics and engineering, then support is crucial, especially in obtaining federal funding, such as funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and NASA.
It is difficult to grow up, because Lihai University has to compete with bigger and better certification institutions, such as Cornell University, University of Chicago, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Johns Hopkins University. However, Bethlehem Steel is indeed an important private supporter. Dr. Martin Whitaker is a physicist and once served as an executive in the Manhattan Project. Under his conservative leadership, although he was strong, he succeeded in the end. 1April, 957 10, Dr. Whitaker informed the board that Bethlehem Steel Company planned to establish a research center at the top of Nanshan Mountain as part of its multi-stage plan for business modernization and expansion. This area is next to Caspian University in the back. Considering the idea of Lihai University, the center will provide expensive equipment for the school and a computing and development center for the company. In addition, as part of the steel project, Lihai University has acquired 600 acres of sports and venue facilities in the Sokon Valley. Unfortunately, Dr. Whitaker couldn't see the results of these plans when he passed the office on August 3 1, 1, 960.
After Professor Harvey Neville's short term ended, Dr Willard Deming Lewis took the post of the longest-serving president of the university (1964- 1982). In the background of physics and applied mathematics, as an executive of Bell Laboratories, Dr. Lewis will continue to be the most successful, if unlikely, principal. Although he has a strong preference for research, he has little experience in university teaching. Dr. Lewis is in charge of the first admission of female college students. He not only managed the expansion of Bethlehem Steel Company at the top of the mountain (as everyone knows now), but also helped the company expand its campus. A major reward is along the north, near the town, between Morton Street and Park Avenue. This area used to be a residential building, which provided much-needed space for libraries, laboratories, lecture halls, research and long-awaited art and science colleges.
But this is in an unexpected place, which may have witnessed Lewis's most brilliant moment. Compared with Dr. Whitaker, he showed more elegance and even disarmed, which helped the principal get along with the staff and students, especially in the turbulent 1960s and early 1970s. After years of protests and negotiations, it happened in the spring semester of 1970. With the help of many professors, including Dr. Carey, a psychologist of Francis Wu, the special meeting of the board of directors decided to largely agree that students should have a greater say in university affairs and establish a forum to unite students and teachers' administrative organs. * * * isomorphism has become a way for students to formally imply the change and growth of the school. Interestingly, this happened two days before the shooting in Kent, in order to suppress any further turmoil or unhappiness. On May 7th, Dr. Lewis presided over a general meeting of the whole school, and declared that he sympathized with the students, but called on them to call a nationwide strike, and their conscience would remember these teachers. According to Professor Ross Yates, author and dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, there was no further strike.
Continue to make progress in the successor government. Unfortunately, due to the poor health of Bethlehem Iron and Steel Company, its hilltop campus was purchased through state aid in 1986. This will be a parting gift, just like it. In addition, since alumnus Donald acquired an additional 750 acres of land in 20 12, Lihai University increased its shareholding to 2,400 acres. Many new buildings have been built. Among them, the campus square provides an interesting new entrance to the north for the school-Lauch Business Center (1990). With the arrival of the new century, Lihai University reviewed its own course. There are many new things and many old things on campus. From 20 10 STEPS building to seeley gmud and then to Zoellner, modern architecture has made good progress, although it is respectable. However, with Lin Deman, Grace Auditorium (1942, from Grace), Alumni Monument and, of course, Parker Auditorium itself, the Gothic tradition of Lihai University is not just the past. Even a small area of 4 acres on campus is still a19th century university park, located at the corner of Park Street and Broadhead Street. However, because education is a field of constant progress and change, work always exists.
Third, the advantages of teaching and research
