In July, 1933, Dr. Chase became the eighth chancellor of New York University where he served until his retirement in July 1951. Under his leadership the University became one of the largest in the country, with over 70,000 students. The faculty included 3,935 men and women. During this period several new buildings were added to the university plant and important new departments of instruction added to the program.

With the death of Dr. Chase, Dartmouth has lost one of its most distinguished alumni.
