Eagle Archive: McDaniel donation comes from graduate of 120 years ago By Kevin E. Dayhoff, May 6, 2013


It only took about 120 years, but an 1891 graduate of then-Western Maryland College, now McDaniel, recently made a donation to the college.

It was announced at McDaniel College's recent trustee-faculty dinner that about $6.7 million from the estate of 1891 alumnus Philip Henry Dorsey, of St. Clements Bay, will be used to establish an endowment for scholarships, according to information provided by the college.

This is the largest bequest for scholarships in the college's history. In contrast to the college's finances in the 1890s, one can only imagine how Dorsey's classmates would marvel at the size of the donation, especially since the first 25 years of the college were fraught with concern over the school's debt.

Local historian Dr. Jim Lightner said in an interview that Dorsey was one of 18 students to earn a bachelor's degree from the college in 1891. The college's total enrollment at the time was 154, he said.

“Cricklewood Green,” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoXhI_FYRNw, was the fifth album released by the band “Ten Years After,” featuring lead singer Alvin Lee, {Music Lee-Alvin.} Mr. Lee passed away March 6, 2013 at the age of 68. One of my favorites from the album was “50,000 miles beneath My Brain.” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNHqUhGEFZM

Another of my all-time favorites, “I’d Love to Change the World,” is the Top 40 hit from the album, “A Space in Time,” http://kevindayhoffart.blogspot.com/2013/04/id-love-to-change-world-alvin-lee.html - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qf6uXeMMR7o http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoXhI_FYRNw
