CHANCELLOR SNOW.
FRANCIS HUNTINGTON SNOW, the honored Chancellor of the University of Kansas was born in Fitchburg, Mass., June 29, 1840.
Chancellor Snow's college training was received at Williams College and at Andover Seminary. He became, in 1866, a member of the first Faculty of the University of Kansas. His most conspicuous work has been the collecting and arranging of a large natural history collection now housed in Snow Hall, and aggregating over 150,000 specimens. Prof. Snow succeeded to the Chancellorship in 1890. Under his administration the University has enjoyed a period of remarkable progress and his singular buoyancy of mind and body give promise of many years more of useful service.
