Journal Of The Society Of Chemical Industry 1899

Excerpt from The Journal of the Society of Chemical Industry, 1899, Vol. 18: A Monthly Record for All Interested in Chemical Manufactures It is a broad question which is the better system; that which places both the pecuniary provision for the highest education of young men and the regulation of the plan of education itself in the hands of the State, or that which leaves these matters for private initiative, and to corporations or boards of governors representing voluntary contributors. Of course both systems have their advantages as well as their drawbacks, but it can hardly be denied that the voluntary system is more liable to leave gaps of the kind which I have mentioned. But it is now time for me to turn from considerations of a personal character to a contemplation of the general features of those industries with which Hurter was identified, and to say a few words on their present state and on their immediate future, so far as it is safe to foretell the latter.

Historical Distillates examines the history of the Chemistry Department at the University of Toronto from its beginnings in 1843, when it was housed in simple quarters in the Parliament Buildings on Front Street and had just one faculty member. During the founding era (1843-1920) three British gentlemen professors guided the department through four homes; between 1920 and 1960 three Canadian heads built a highly influential department. Since 1960 eight chairmen have effectively managed a growing and diverse department while it ventured into exciting new fields and emerging sub-disciplines. New colleges and a Nobel Prize have been highlights of the past two decades. With the completion of recent renovations and additions (such as the Davenport Research Building and Garden), with its distinguished faculty, top-rate staff, and excellent students, and with its dazzling array of equipment to support research, the department's future indeed looks bright.
