CLASS OF 1883

The following is taken from the March number of the Phi Beta Kappa Key: "On May 1, 1929, Dr. John Pickard, who has been professor of classical archaeology and history of art at the University of Missouri since 1892, retired from active service and was given the title of professor emeritus. His teaching service covered 54 years, 37 of which were given to the University of Missouri. He has served in many capacities of a civic nature, and was on the committee for the building of the Memorial tower at the University. He was the correspondent for the members of Phi Beta Kappa at the University of Missouri, which resulted in the granting of a charter in 1901, and the organization of the chapter on December 5 of that year. He received his Ph.D. at Munich in 1892, and is the author of many articles on archaeology and art."
