Title
Pacific University Trustees 1882 meeting minutes regarding students in military drills
Description
Minutes taken at a meeting of the Pacific University Board of Trustees on June 6, 1882. The trustees noted that they approved of the work of its superintendent, Captain Wilkinson, and would ask the Department of the Interior to continue employing him there. Wilkinson, who was also employed by Pacific as a professor of military sciences, gave a report on how he had been conducting drill practices with the students of both Pacific and the Indian School together. He quotes one Pacific student as saying, 'that he had never associated with more gentlemanly behaved young men than the students of the Indian School.' A table of enrollments in the drilling excercises, organized by school and by student rank, follows his remarks.
