Excerpt from Remarks on the Fine Arts Department in the University of Michigan: With a History of the Art Lectures in That Institution, Including the "Memorial" Document Addressed to the Board of Regents
The deep and growing interest felt for the Fine Arts in this State - and more especially the development of Art-Culture in the University of Michigan - seems to render it extremely proper that the following "Memorial" should be again placed before the public, and in a form more convenient for perusal. At the time when this Paper was presented to the Board of Regents, it was published (soon after) in the State Journal, at Lansing, as a document of more than ordinary interest; and it was incorporated in the forthcoming volume issued by the Superintendent of Public Instruction. But, though thus approved, and published, and read by a limited number, yet in no mode has it been placed before the public in a form the most desirable to invite general attention. At the period when this "Memorial" was first addressed to the Regents, no such organized department had ever been attempted in any College or University of this country.
