Everett W. Goodhue '00

Everett W. Goodhue '00 (r) was saluted as the Class Secretary of the Year at the annual gathering of Dartmouth class officers in Hanover last month. J. Michael McGean '49 Secretary of the College, presented him with print of Dartmouth Row in winter and read the following citation:

You would be the first to say that Dartmouth men never retire. Your teaching career in economics started at Colgate, shifted to Cornell, and then to Dartmouth from 1821 to 1949. Later as Professor-Emeritus you went on to teach for seven more years at Principia College in Elsah, Illinois. That's just 54 years of teaching -par for the course in a man born a New Englander - the son of Henry Goodhue, Class of 1857.

Of course the day you stepped out of the classroom, you stepped into a major assignment for the Class of 1900. Since 1957 you have served as Secretary never missing an AlumniMagazine deadline nor leaving your class without a full column of interesting news. Your Christmas newsletters are treasured by all members of the 1900 Family. And the obituaries you are forced to write are moving tributes - thoughtful, generous, and always in good taste - qualities, incidentally, which everyone finds in.you.

In recent years your class responsibilities have increased. Now you are merely Treasurer, Head Agent, and in 1965 served as Reunion Chairman for your 65th. We know of the time and energy you devote to your work, for you make trips to Crosby Hall about as frequently as those in Crosby on the payroll!

For all that you have done, and do, so that 1900 can continue to hold its place among the foremost of Dartmouth classes, we salute you tonight with our award as Class Secretary of the Year.
