Synopsis
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Inauguration of John Huston Finley, Vol. 4: As President of the University of the State of New York and Commissioner of Education, State Education Building, January 2, 1914
President Finley soon gave promise of his acceptance, with the expectation of taking office on the first of Octo ber, as he wished to carry to conclusion certain projects which he had undertaken at the College of the City of New York, and also to assist in beginning the work of the new college year. In the meantime he was invited by the National Board of Mediation and Arbitration to act as one of the two independent arbitrators in the great railroad controversy involving more than forty railroads and more than eighty thousand railroad conductors and trainmen. With the consent of the Regents of the University, Doctor Finley sat as a member of this court during September, October and a part of November. He took the oath of office as Commissioner of Edu cation and President of the University on the 29th of November.
It had been originally planned to hold the ceremonies of his inauguration at the time of the autumn convoca tion. As this could not be compassed, however, it was finally determined that such exercises should be held on the second day of January.
