A Brief History of the Department
The University of Chicago, and with it the Department of Mathematics, opened its doors in October of 1892. The first chair of the department was Eliakim Hastings Moore, who had been an associate professor at Northwestern. He immediately appointed Oskar Bolza and Heinrich Maschke, and the three of them became the core of the department during the period 1892-1908. R.C. Archibald has described this group as follows: These three men supplemented one another remarkably. Moore was a fiery enthusiast, brilliant, and keenly interested in the popular mathematical research movements of the day; Bolza, a product of the meticulous German school of analysis led by Weierstrass, was an able, and widely read research scholar; Maschke was more deliberate than the other two, sagacious, brilliant in research, and a most delightful lecturer in geometry. During the period the University of Chicago was unsurpassed in America as an institution for the study of higher mathematics.

    AT THE END OF THE CENTURY
    The biggest star in this group of young faculty members was Virgil Snyder. In more than forty years at Cornell he published over eighty articles and books, while directing the Ph.D.'s of thirty-nine students, thirteen of whom were women. He also had national visibility, serving as Vice-President (1916) and President (1927-28) of the American Mathematical Society [20]. Relative to research, Snyder also excelled, although his approach was clearly grounded in the nineteenth century even as others moved beyond those techniques in the early decades of the new century. As a student, Arthur Coble characterized it, Snyder's early research began In addition to his extensive body of research in algebraic geometry, Snyder also actively engaged in the education of undergraduates. In the spirit of the Oliver-Wait-Jones department Snyder coauthored a Treatise on Differential Calculus (1898) with McMahon, Differential and Integral Calculus (1902) with Hutchinson, and Plane and Solid Geometry (1911) with Tanner. All three of these books were used in the lower level courses at Cornell. and elsewhere. Other members of the Cornell Mathematics Department also contributed to the newly emerging American mathematical scene. John Tanner was active in both the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and the American Mathematical Society (AMS), becoming treasurer of the later in 1907. He also received recognition in American Men (and Women) of Science when he earned a star for his research, a distinction reserved for the top people in each field.

The purpose of this article is to examine briefly the nature and consequences of an early twentieth-century program to reorient the American mathematical curriculum, led by mathematician Eliakim Hastings Moore (1862-1932) of the University of Chicago. Moore's efforts, I conclude, were not ultimately very successful, and the reasons for this failure are worth pondering. Like William Mueller's recent article [16], which draws attention to the spirited debates regarding American mathematics education at the end of the nineteenth century, the present article may remind some readers of more recent educational controversies. I don't discourage such thinking, but caution that the lessons of history are not likely to be simple ones.

    Save a personal copy of this article and quickly find it again with Furl.net. It's free! Save it. The state of American mathematics in the year 1890 was quite bleak. Only two schools offered true graduate education, The Johns Hopkins University and Clark University. Both were new, Hopkins having been founded in 1876 and Clark in 1889. When compared to their counterparts in Europe, the courses taught at the vast majority of American universities were paltry, the spirit of research almost nonexistent, and the quality of the faculty vastly inferior. Most established universities and colleges in America emphasized a classical education that featured rhetoric and classical languages to the exclusion of the sciences. By 1950, just 60 years later, a dramatic revolution had completely altered the mathematical landscape. American students could now obtain an excellent grounding at dozens of first-rate institutions before pursuing doctoral degrees at several world-class departments led by an international cast of outstanding researchers.

    MAY 12 - BIRTHS James S. Coleman Born 12 May 1926; died 25 Mar 1995.
    James S(amuel) Coleman was a U.S. sociologist, a pioneer in mathematical sociology whose studies strongly influenced education policy. In the early 1950s, he was as a chemical engineer with Eastman-Kodak Co. in Rochester, N.Y. He then changed direction, fascinated with sociology and social problems. In 1966, he presented a report to the U.S. Congress which concluded that poor black children did better academically in integrated, middle-class schools. His findings provided the sociological underpinnings for widespread busing of students to achieve racial balance in schools. In 1975, Coleman rescinded his support of busing, concluding that it had encouraged the deterioration of public schools by encouraging white flight to avoid integration. Dorothy Mary Crowfoot Hodgkin

    chemist
    , born in Cairo, Egypt. A crystallographer of distinction, she was awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1964 for her discoveries, by the use of X-ray techniques, of the structure of biologically important molecules, including penicillin (1946), vitamin B-12 (1956), and later, the protein hormone insulin (1969). Her achievements included not only these structure determinations and the scientific insight they provided but also the development of methods that made such structure determinations possible. (One of her students was Margaret Roberts, later Margaret Thatcher, the only British prime minister with a degree in science.)

    German-born American biologist known for his work in avian taxonomy, population genetics, and evolution . In 1928, he led the first of three expeditions to New Guinea and the Solomon Islands where he studied the effects of geographic distribution among various animal species. He led development of the modern synthetic theory of evolution (the interplay of gene mutation and recombination, changes in structure and function of chromosomes, reproductive isolation and natural selection). In 1940, he proposed a definition of species that became accepted in scientific circles. He began bird watching as a young boy, and by the age of ten, he could recognize all of the local bird species by call as well as sight. John Howard Northrop

    American biochemist who received (with James B. Sumner and Wendell M. Stanley) the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1946 for successfully purifying and crystallizing certain enzymes, thus enabling him to determine their chemical nature. During WW I, he conducted research on fermentation processes suitable for the industrial production of acetone and ethyl alcohol. This work led to a study of enzymes essential for digestion, respiration, and general life processes. He crystallized pepsin (1930), a digestive enzyme present in gastric juice, and found that it is a protein, thus resolving the dispute over the nature of enzymes. Using the same chemical methods, he isolated the first bacterial virus (bacteriophage), and found it is a nucleoprotein (1938).

    Alexander MacFarlane in Chicago, 1893
    The Columbia Exposition in Chicago, Illinois in 1893 attracted the curious from around the world. The occasion was an opportunity for scientists to assemble and discuss the advances in their fields. For example, Hermann von Helmholtz attended the Electrical Congress associated with Nicola Tessla's display. The University of Chicago opened its doors in October 1892, and the Department of Mathematics organized a Congress of Mathematicians to be held in connection with the Columbia Exposition. The German government commissioned Felix Klein as its official representative. The conference had a stimulating effect on the scientists. Subsequently there has been a sequence of International Congresses of Mathematicians with the first ICM in 1897 in Zurich. Sometimes the Chicago Congress is called the zeroth ICM for its primordial role in the instituted sequence.The proceedings of this conference (see references) have Library of Congress call number QA1 I8 1893, and are shelved just to the left of the sequence of proceedings from the subsequent ICMs. Alexander MacFarlane wanted to join the mathematicians and entered his name on the Official Register. He read papers on the definitions of the trigonometric functions and on the principles of elliptic and hyperbolic analysis. The mathematical papers of the Chicago Congress were published in 1896 under the editorial guidance of E.H.Moore, Henry S. White, Oskar Bolza, and Heinrich Mashke, but MacFarlane's contributions were not included, even though acknowledged.
