RECIPIENTS 0 F HONORARY DEGREES
HELEN FRANKENTHALER is a major figure in the world of modern arc, one whose vision
and innovation has altered the course of painting. Her name is firmly inscribed in art history
books, and a list of exhibitions and awards as well as the museums that own her paintings fill
many pages.
For someone whose daring paved the way for a new style of painting, her view of herself is
surprisingly prosaic. She once told The New York Times Magazine, "My life is square and bour
geois. 1 like calm and continuity. 1 think as a person I'm very controlling, and I'm afraid of big
risks. I'm not a skier or a mountain climber or a motorcyclist. And I'm not a safari girl-I never
want to go on a safari. My safaris are all on the studio floor. That's where I take my danger. "
As a young artist, the "danger" on her studio floor began as a risky venture to a place no one
else had ever traveled.
She came of age during the height of Abstract Expressionism, when Willem de Kooning and
Jackson Pollock were exciting the art world with their intense, frenetic styles.
In the late 1940s and early 1950s, Pollock was dripping paint onto canvas, creating swirls
and lines of thick pigment. In the early 1950s, Frankenthaler took this non-brush technique in
a different direction. She thinned paint to the consistency of a wash and poured it directly onto
unprimed canvas, allowing the paint to soak in.
Writer Deborah Solomon has described Frankenthaler's work as "soft, unfolding bursts of
color which can make us feel we're being welcomed into a serene place ... Her vibrant abstrac
tions , in which paint is soaked into the canvas like ink into a paper napkin, have a sensuous liq
uidity." Others have described her work as "diaphanous," "fluid," or providing a "liquid-like
effect reminiscent of water colors."
Art critic Robert C. Morgan said, "What made Frankenthaler's vision unique was the free
dom to draw with color, to move beyond the prescriptions of edge and format as the sole deter
minants of painterly content and to allow the gestural fl.ow of the paint to intervene and thus to
alter the way a painting could be seen."
Frankenthaler herself has said that despite their feeling of improvisation , her paintings are
carefully planned. "Color doesn't work unless it works in space," she said. "Color alone is just
decoration-you might as well be making a shower curtain."
The work "Mountains and Sea," painted when Frankenthaler was only 23, is considered a
turning point in art, the painting that makes the connection between Abstract Expressionism and
the style called Color Field that emerged in the 1950s and 1960s. "Mountains and Sea" excited
and inspired such artists as Morris Louis and Kenneth Noland, who have acknowledged
Frankenthaler's innovation.
Frankenthaler was born on Dec. 12, 1928. Her father, Alfred Frankenthaler, was a judge in
the New York State Supreme Court, and her mother, Martha Lowenstein Frankenthaler, was
born in Germany. She was the youngest of three daughters and grew up in Manhattan, enjoying
a privileged existence attending private schools and taking advantage of New York's museums and
galleries.
At the Dalton School, she studied with Mexican painter Rufino Tamayo, who encouraged
her to attend Bennington College and study art. There she studied with the cubist painter Paul
5
6
Feeley. She was also a student at the Art Student League in New York and studied privately with
Hans Hofmann. After graduating from Bennington, she returned to New York City, where she
met the influential art critic Clement Greenberg by inviting him to an art show she organized to
benefit her college.
Greenberg introduced her to major artists of the day and took her to exhibitions and art
shows. Through Greenberg she met de Kooning, Franz Kline, and Pollock. She was married to
painter Robert Motherwell from 1958 to 1971, and married Stephen DuBrul in 1994.
Frankenthaler's work has been presented at major museums and exhibitions around the
world. She was one of four artists chosen to represent the United Scates at the 1966 Venice
Biennial. She has enjoyed retrospectives in major museums, including the Whitney Museum of
American Arc in 1969, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in 1985, the Museum of Modern
Art in 1989 and the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., in 1993. Since 1951, her work
has appeared in more than 150 one-woman shows and in several hundred group exhibitions.
Among her many awards are first prize at the Biennale in Paris in 1959, Extraordinary
Women of Achievement Award from the National Conference of Christians and Jews in 1978
and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the College of Art Association in 1994.
She has caught and lectured at a number of colleges and universities, including Bennington,
Yale, Princeton, Hunter College, Harvard, Brandeis, the Santa Fe Institute of Fine Arts, and the
Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture.
Her work is in major, permanent collections around the world. Among the museums own
ing her paintings are the Boston Museum of Fine Arcs, rhe Brooklyn Museum, the Metropolitan
Museum of Art, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum as well as museums in London, Australia,
Ireland, Israel, and Japan.
A recent exhibition of her work at rhe Guggenheim in New York, called "After Mountains
and Sea: Frankenthaler 1956-59," will go on display at the Guggenheim in Bilbao, Spain, from
June to September and move to rhe Guggenheim in Berlin in October. Another current exhibit,
"Frankenthaler: The Darker Palette," is currently at the Savannah College of Art and Design. Ir
will move to the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, D .C., on July 1 and to the Princeton
Art Museum in 1999.
Frankenthaler will receive an honorary Doctor of Fine Arts degree.
As an educator for more than four decades, BERNARD HARLESTON has often been on the front
lines, from choosing to run a black university during a critical time in the civil rights movement, to
overseeing an urban institution where challenges to the right to free speech made daily headlines.
Currently he is professor of education and founding director of the doctoral program in
higher education administration at the University of Massachusetts at Boston. Throughout his
career, Harleston's personal goals have been to restore confidence in public education, to raise the
status of the teaching role and to play a more creative part in addressing diversity. He has spent
a lifetime devoted to the advancement of higher education and to expanding educational oppor
tunities for everyone.
It is appropriate, then , that Harleston began his career at Tufts Universiry as the first African
American professor the university hired. He arrived at Tufts in 1956, having earned a bachelor of
science degree from Howard University in 1951 and a Ph.D. from the University of Rochester
in 1955. He joined the Tufts faculty as an assistant professor of psychology. During the next
rwenty-five years, Harleston served Tufts as an associate professor of psychology, the Moses Hunt
Professor of Psychology and dean of the faculty of Arts and Sciences.
After the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968, Harleston felt deeply that it
was time to give something back to the community that had enabled him to attain his own goals.
After much thought and discussion with his family, he decided to resign from Tufts to become
provost at Lincoln University in Oxford, Pa., a historically all-black institution.
Harleston served as acting president of Lincoln during a particularly troubled time, helping
guide the school when morale was low and when students were murdered at both Jackson State
and Kent State.
He was invited to return to Tufts as dean of the faculty of Arts and Sciences, and he
remained on the Medford/Somerville campus from 1970 to 1981.
''I've told everybody chat I grew up as a scholar and teacher at Tufts," he said recently. "The
longest part of my professional life was there. "
He, his wife, Marie Ann, and their rwo sons lived just off campus, next to the French
House, which offered a handy and welcome supply of baby-sitters.
In I 968, when he left for Lincoln University, he was the only faculty member of color. One
young woman who baby-sac for his children was African American, and she told the family chat
whenever there was a dance or other function at Tufts, friends assumed one particular student
would escort her, knowing there were only a handful of African American young men on campus.
"To see the increase in diversity and the leadership role char has emerged at Tufts about stu
dents of color has been a fascinating development to watch," Harleston said. "Tufts is a stronger
place today because of it. "
In 198 I, Harleston was asked to be a candidate for rhe presidency of City College of New
York, a place that offered a sharp contrast to Tufts. CCNY was urban, non-residential, and had
a history of providing opportunities for immigrants. Harleston was chosen to be the college's
ninth president at a rime when questions were being raised about open admissions and about
access to the school for people of color.
His tenure as president came during what turned out to be a time of unremitting contro
versy. Two professors engaged the school in lengthy legal battles over inAammatory remarks they
made. One was Leonard Jeffries, an African American who chaired the black studies department
and made anti-Semitic comments. The ocher was philosophy professor Michael Levin, who
espoused the notion chat African Americans were genetically inferior. Both professors were
tenured, and issues of accountability, civility, academic freedom and rhe right to free speech were
debated both on campus and in the courts. Harleston said that he was enormously gratified
throughout the ordeal to hear from many former Tufts students who supported him.
Harleston was at CCNY for eleven years before coming to the University of Massachusetts.
He also has worked as a research fellow at Stanford, been a visiting scholar at Harvard, and was
a visiting assistant professor at New York University. He recently completed a project run by the
American Council on Education designed to help South Africa restructure its higher education
system. He is also a consulrant to rhe Ford Foundation.
Over the years, Harleston has been recognized for his efforts in support of education.
Among his honors are the John H. Franklin Award from the Tufts University African American
Center, the Howard University Alumni Award for Distinguished Postgraduate Achievement in
rhe Fields of Education and Administration, and the New York Urban League's Frederick
Douglass Award.
He will receive an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree.
JEROME P. KASSIRER, M.D., editor-in-chief of The New England journal of Medicine, 1s
known for addressing controversial topics and broadening the scope and readability of the world's
most prestigious medical journal. That achievement is not surprising, considering chat he
brought to the job more than three decades of pioneering work that helped change how medicine
is understood, practiced, and caught.

A native of Buffalo, N.Y., Kassirer, professor of medicine at Tufts University School of
Medicine, earned his medical degree magna cum laude from rhe University of Buffalo and
remained in rhar city for his internship and residency.
He arrived at rhe New England Medical Center in 1959 for a fellowship in nephrology and
spent much of rhe 1960s researching rhe lirrle-undersrood field of metabolic alkalosis, or rhe
body's ways of maintaining an alkaline/acid chemical balance. He helped to identify rhe impor
tant roles of potassium and chloride in this common metabolic disturbance, discoveries rhar led
to therapeutic approaches routinely used today. His books, Acid Base and Repairing Body Fluids
"are models of clarity," according to one colleague, who also noted the continuing popularity of a
column, "Nephrology Forum," which Kassirer helped create for the journal Kidney International
Bur the biological science of medicine was only one interest of Kassirer, who, in rhe early
1970s, became involved in rhe new research area of clinical decision-making. He was a charter
member of rhe Society of Clinical Decision-Making and collaborated extensively with Dr.
Stephen Pauker, a colleague at Tufts University School of Medicine and another pioneer in clinical
decision-making research. Kassirer's focus included rhe clinical application of decision analysis
and several concepts that have played roles in outcomes research over the last three decades.
His work in clinical decision-making and rhe related area of cognitive science (he and Dr.
G. Anthony Garry published one of rhe first analyses of rhe reasoning processes rhar physicians
use to make diagnostic decisions) has provided support for moving medical education away from
primarily memorization. Problem-based learning, integral to medical education ar Tufts and else
where, is an example of this influence. In addition, Kassirer's research influenced rhe development
of some of the early prototypes of artificial intelligence computer programs.
During all these years, Kassirer also was deeply involved with Tufts School of Medicine,
serving on key committees and reaching. His reaching routinely won him awards, including ten
from graduating classes, a citation from rhe dean, and one of rhe first Distinguished Faculty
Awards presented by rhe medical school. The Sara Murray Jordan Professor of Medicine at Tufts
from I 987 to 199 I , Kassirer continues to reach at least once a week at the medical school.
He is the recipient of several honorary degrees, including one from CUniversire Rene
Descartes in Paris. He is an elected member of the Institute of Medicine of rhe National Academy
of Sciences and has served as chairman of the National Library of Medicine's Board of Scientific
Counselors and director and chairman of the American Board of Internal Medicine.
Under Kassirer's editorship, The New England Journal of Medicine has established regular
features on molecular medicine and clinical reasoning, launched a World Wide Web sire, and
taken stands on many public policy and social issues, including gun control, patient-physician
relationships , and the impact of managed care. NEJM editorials have challenged federal policy
on medical uses of marijuana, questioned the health impact of obesity and drugs used ro treat it,
and warned against rhe loss of physician integrity in rhe marker-driven health care system.
"This is arguably the most tumultuous rime in the history of medicine," Kassirer said in a
speech last fall. "Our successes in providing care and using technology have overtaken society's
willingness to pay for them ... Ultimately, it is individuals, not organizations, who are the ones
responsible for preserving the noble heritage of medicine."
Tufts will award Kassirer an honorary Doctor of Science degree.
DJIBR1L TAMSIR NIANE, a scholar of medieval Mali and pre-1500 West African history, has
spent his academic career championing the re-establishment of Africa's cultural and oral history
traditions. His validation of the richness and value of oral traditions has helped to shape the
understanding and reaching of the region's history and culture.
Niane was the first scholar to commit to writing the Sundiaca Epic, a West African oral
tradition chat chronicles rhe founding of the Mali empire in the 13th century.
"My eyes have only just opened on these mysteries of eternal Africa, and more than once in
my thirst to know I have had co give up my little claim as an armchair intellectual before the
silences of tradition just as my over-impertinent questions were about to uncover a mystery," he
wrote in his preface to Sundiata: An Epic of Old Mali in 1960.
Born in Conakry, Guinea, in 1932, Niane received an undergraduate degree from the
Faculty of Letters in Bordeaux, France, in 1956, and a Diploma of Higher Studies in history in
1959. He then became professor of history and principal of the Lycee of Donka in Conakry.
Despite being discouraged by his university mentors, Niane began developing what was
generally considered a radical perspective among African historians, who, Niane said, had been
caught "co scorn oral sources in matters of history, all chat is not written in black and white being
considered without foundation ... and to believe chat we know nothing of our past for wane of
written documents."
In 1958, he began studying with the Mandingo griocs, the oral historians of the royal lin
eages of Mali. That resulted in his first book, Sundiata: An Epic of Old Mali, a French translation
of the grioc Mamadou Kouyace's oral performance of the founding of the Mali empire. The book
influenced the study of grioc performances and Africa's oral history and led to a profound recon
ceptualization of West African history.
In 1964, Niane was appointed professor of history at the Polytechnic Institute in Conakry,
and eventually became dean of the faculty of social sciences. After publishing two books in 1972,
The Empire of Mali and The Empire of Gao, he also explored ocher vehicles for hiscorical expres
sion, producing a play, "Sikassa and the Lase Citadel," and a bailee script, "The Black Gazelle."
These explorations, along with the publication of his novel, Mery, and an article, "African Cine
matographers and Hisrory," in 1974, demonstrate Niane's belief in the importance of the arcs in
hiscorical understanding.
In 1974, Niane went co Dakar, Senegal, an academic center of Francophone West Africa,
where he was direccor of the Leopold Sedar Senghor Foundation for six years. Lacer, he served
the government of Senegal in a number of positions, including national direccor of the archives,
national commissioner of arc expositions, and technical adviser co the miniseries of Culture and
Education.
Niane's work has long been recognized by the international community. He served as edicor
of Volume IV of the UNESCO-sponsored General History of Africa in 1984. He holds honorary
degrees from Howard University, the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil, and Meiji University in
Tokyo. A college in Baro, Republic of Guinea, bears his name.
He is a member of the editorial board of Ethiopiques, a journal of African humanities, and
a member of the Association of Francophone Writers, and the Association of African Writers.
Tufts will award Niane an honorary Doccor of Humane Letters degree.
GARRY TRUDEAU, whose sassy comic scrip "Doonesbury" has chronicled a generation of
American policies and society, has come co embody the controversial nature of edicorial cartooning.
When "Doonesbury" debuted in syndication in 1970, Richard Nixon was president; American
forces were fighting in Vietnam, and campus unrest dominated domestic head!ines.0
The wildly
popular, seven-day-a-week scrip earned Trudeau a Pulitzer Prize-the first ever awarded to a
comic scrip artist-in 1975 and the cover scary in Time magazine a year lacer.
"Doonesbury" now appears in nearly 1,400 newspapers daily and Sunday in the United
Scares and abroad. The scrip won the 1994 "Best Comic Scrip" award from the National
Cartoonists Society. Trudeau's work has been collected in more than 70 hardcover, trade paper-
9
10
back and mass paperback editions, which cumulatively have sold more than 7 million copies
around the world. He has written articles for Harper's, Rolling Stone, New York, and The New
Republic and is currently an essayist for Time magazine.
"Doonesbury" was born as "Bull Tales," a strip Trudeau created while he was a student a
Yale University, where he earned B.A. and M.F.A. degrees. The strip's early characters inhabited
a haven called the Walden Puddle Commune. One of the most recognizable early characters is
the Rev. W.S. Sloan, Jr., modeled on Yale's the Rev. Sloane Coffin, Jr. , and Trudeau's roommate
and friend, the Rev. Scotty McLennan, now university chaplain at Tufts University. The low
keyed optimist Michael J. Doonesbury is said co be modeled after Trudeau.
"Bull Tales" captured the interest of Universal Press Syndicate, and after Trudeau redrew
nearly a year's worth of work co make the strip more universal, "Doonesbury" debuted in rwenry
eight newspapers in 1970. Over the years, the strip has offered up glib commentary on Vietnam,
Watergate, women's rights, presidential elections, and even the much-hyped release of Windows
95. The strip has been publicly denounced by George Bush, Tip O'Neill, Dan Quayle, and
Congress, while the U.S. Army praised his coverage of the Gulf War and displayed the scrip in
the Pentagon. "Trudeau's dislikes are ambidextrous," Time reported. "Neither radicals or reac
tionaries are safe from his artillery."
In 1977, working with John and Faith Hubley, Trudeau wrote and co-directed his animated
film, "A Doonesbury Special," for NBC. The film was nominated for an Academy Award and
received the Special Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival.
The "Doonesbury" faithful were left without their daily dose of commentary in 1983, when
Trudeau cook a nineteen-month sabbatical co give the characters a chance co grow up. He used
the time co pursue work in the cheater, writing the book and lyrics for the Broadway musical,
"Doonesbury: A Musical Comedy," in collaboration with composer Elizabeth Swados. He was
nominated for rwo Drama Desk Awards for chat work. A second collaboration with Swados
produced "Rap Master Ronnie," a satirical revue of the Reagan administration chat was an off
Broadway hie in 1984.
During the 1988 presidential campaign, Trudeau and film director Robert Aleman wrote
and co-produced the critically acclaimed HBO series "Tanner '88," which featured coverage of
the real campaign as seen through the eyes of a fictional candidate, Jack Tanner, a Democratic
senator from Michigan. The series ended with Tanner's defeat at the Democratic National
Convention. The show won an Emmy, the award for Best Television Series at the Cannes Film
Festival, and the British Academy Award for Best Foreign Television Program.
Later this year, both a book and a CD-ROM will highlight rwenry-five years of"Doonesbury."
A fellow of the American Academy of Arcs and Letters, Trudeau has received honorary
degrees from Yale, Colgate, Williams, Smith, and Duke, among ochers.
Tufts will award Trudeau an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters Degree.
ONE BUILDING, FOUR PROFESSORS, SEVEN STUDENTS.
Random Notes about Tufts and Its Commencement Exercises
Tufts College opened its doors in 1854 under the modest bur co.urageous leadership of Hosea
Ballou 2d. Hesitant as co his fitness for the presidency, he wrote co his brother Levi: "But I shut
my eyes co the consequences, and rush forward ... I am in for it, and if I come out ground co
powder, I hope ic will bring che price of flour down."
The distinguished Ballou and his successors wrought well, however, for Tufts College has
grown from its original complement of "one building, four professors, seven students" into a
university with a full-time faculty and staff of over 2,600 and student enrollment of 8,700. The
climax of che academic year has traditionally been a public Commencement, which for many
years was scheduled for che second Wednesday in July. The first Commencement at which
degrees were conferred took place on July 8, 1857, when three candidates were graduated. In
chose days students were assigned Commencement pares in accordance with their class rank, and
appropriate addresses were delivered in Larin. Until 1879, che degree candidates were listed
alphabetically. Until 1875, the morning Commencement exercises were followed by a formal
program in the afternoon under the auspices of the leading undergraduate literary and debating
club. In 1875, che afternoon program was conducted by the Association of Alumni and marked
their increasing interest in che affairs of their Alma Macer. Printed circulars of the first Com
mencement were sent co all Universalise pastors co read co their congregations and special notice
was given chat ladies were invited co all of the festivities.

Since chat auspicious day in July 1857, Tufts has conferred 110,898 earned degrees. The Medical
School was opened in 1893, and che first graduating class consisted of twenty-two students,
including eight women. Since then , ic has conferred 10,930 M.D. degrees.
The Boston Dental College was incorporated into Tufts in 1899, and all graduates after chis
union received the Doctorate of Dental Medicine from Tufts instead of the degree of Doctor of
Deneal Surgery. Thus, Tufts became one of only three dental schools in the United Scates co
award the D.M.D. instead of the D.D.S. as the degree for general practitioners of dentistry. The
Tufts University School of Dental Medicine has conferred 9,299 D.M.D. degrees.
The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy opened its doors in 1933 co twenty-one
students, all college or university graduates. In 1935, fourteen students received the Master of
Arcs degree and at the same Commencement the first Master of Arts in Law and Diplomacy was
awarded. Since 1935, The Fletcher School has conferred 2,834 Master of Arts degrees, 2,743
Master of Arcs in Law and Diplomacy degrees, and 526 Doctor of Philosophy degrees.
The School of Veterinary Medicine, founded in 1979, has conferred 932 Doctor of
Veterinary Medicine degrees. It is New England's only veterinary school.

The Sacl<ler School of Graduate Biomedical Sciences was established in 1980 in
cooperation with the schools of medicine, dental medicine, veterinary medicine, and the
graduate schools of arts and sciences. Furthering Tufts' commitment co multidisciplinary health
investigations, the Sackler School has conferred 224 degrees.
The School of Nutrition Science and Policy began as the Graduate Department of Nutri
tion in the College of Arts and Sciences in I 976. le began operation as a school in I 981. Since
then, the school has conferred 348 degrees.
The Commencement Exercises
Today the Tufts Commencement exercises open with an academic procession which brings
all participants co the Green in front of Ballou Hall, where the first Commencement was held.
Candidates for degrees lead the procession, followed by members of the faculty, in order of
seniority. Members of the administration, deans, trustees, and honorary degree recipients are
ushered in by the Marshal of the 25-year Reunion Class of 1973, Regina Strazzulla Rockefeller,
co seats on the platform. Associate Professor of Classics, Peter L.D. Reid, the Presenter, carrying
the official mace, leads the final marcher, President John DiBiaggio.
Academic Regalia
Traditional academic regalia has been worn by the Tufts faculty since the Commencement
of I 906. The gown for the Bachelor's degree has poi need sleeves and is designed co be worn
closed. The Master's gown has elbow-length, pointed sleeves; the Doctor's gown has bell
shaped sleeves; both may be worn open or closed. The Doctor's gown is faced and the sleeves
are trimmed with velvet. By its color and its arrangement, the hood worn with the gown
indicates the wearer's highest advanced degree, the field in which it was awarded, and the
school from which it came. The lining of the hood carries the school's colors, brown and
blue in the case of Tufts. The velvet edging on the hood, wider for the Doctor's degree than
for the Master's degree, signifies by its color the field in which the degree was designated .
Master of Science and Doctor of Science hoods are trimmed in yellow; Engineers in orange;
Medicine in green; Deneal Medicine in lilac; and Doctor of Philosophy in blue. The mortar
board or Oxford-type cap is the one usually worn, but of lace, rhe soft cap which resembles an
over-sized beret has come into favor because of its comfort. Tassels, other than the universally
accepted black, may indicate by the various colors the field of learning in which the degree is
earned, while the gold tassel generally signifies a doctoral degree. Many foreign universities show
great diversity following traditions which extend back for centuries.
ALLAN MACLEOD CORMACK
On May 8, 1998, Tufts University lost one of its giants. Nobel Laureate and University Professor
Allan Macleod Cormack died at his home in Winchester. He was 74.
We mourn his passing, che tremendous loss of a kind, loyal, and dedicated friend and col
league. But today, we cake the occasion of chis commencement co celebrate his legacy co Tufts
University, co generations of studen cs and co the world .
. First and foremost, Cormack's life as a teacher is a resonant symbol for all who choose co
spend their lives as educators. As he himself once said "There should be a very close connection
between research and teaching," a maxim he proved by remembering chat it was his boyhood
fascination with che vast canopy of stars above his South African home chat ultimately led ro his
discovery of the mathematical underpinning of the CAT scan X-ray. He never lose his love of
learning and never lost his ability co transmit the excitement of learning co his students.
Tufts President John DiBiaggio said of Cormack "Here was a man whose work has forever
changed che practice of medicine, and yet he still found joy in teaching introductory physics co
our undergraduates."
Colleagues describe Cormack as a "modest genius" whose love of his work in physics was
paralleled only by his love of companionship, celling a good srory, and pursuing his wide range
of interests including music, history, archeology, and sailing. All of chese qualities came into play
in his teaching, making him a model for us all.
Cormack called the research chat led co the CAT scan development a "hobby. " His 1979

Jackson College appears on the
diplomas of women graduates to
commemorate the long and hard
won tradition of co-education at
Tufts University. Although women
applied to Tufts almost immedia
tely after its founding in 1852,
they were denied admission until
the l 890's. With the founding
of Jackson College for women
in 1910, which was named for
Cornelia Jackson, the benefactor
who did the most to promote
women's education at Tufts ,
women's education gained secur
ity at the institution. To remem
ber that important change, we
continue to place the name of
Jackson College on the diplomas
of women in Liberal Arts.
