At the suggestion of the President, the Regents adopted for incorporation into the minutes the following statement:
With deepest sorrow the Regents of the University of Michigan have learned
of the death on September 27 of Dr. Louis A. Strauss, Isaac Newton Demmon
Professor of English Language and Literature, an alumnus of the University, and
an honored member of its faculty for forty-five years. He was a teacher who
gladly taught, and whose students brought away from the classroom both the
fruits of ripe scholarship and an abiding memory of their association with a
wise and friendly spirit. In his character there was much room for affection, none
for hate; his loyalties were steadfast, his uprightness unshaken. His life among
us will never cease to be a wholesome and inspiring example for his colleagues
and students.
Be it therefore Resolved, That the Regents record this memorial of Professor Louis A. Strauss in their official Proceedings, and that the Vice-President
and Secretary be directed to transmit a copy thereof to Professor Strauss's surviving family, in token of their heartfelt sympathy.
