RUNKLE. “John Daniel Runkle (October 11, 1822 – July 8, 1902) was an American educator and mathematician. He served as acting president of MIT from 1868 to 1870 and president between 1870 and 1878. Professor Runkle was born at Root, New York State. He worked on his father’s farm until he was of age, and then studied and taught until he entered the Lawrence Scientific School of Harvard University, where he graduated in 1851. His ability as a mathematician led in 1849 to his appointment as assistant in the preparation of the American Ephemeris and Nautical Almanac, in which he continued to engage until 1884. He was professor of mathematics in the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from 1865 until his retirement in 1902. Runkle become aware of the work of Victor Della-Vos’s work in Russia at the Philadelphia Centennial Exhibition in 1876, he was impressed by the combination of theoretical and practical learning. Manual training was introduced into the institute curriculum largely at his instance. He founded the Mathematical Monthly in 1859 and continued its publication until 1861, and he had charge of the astronomical department of the Illustrated Pilgrim’s Almanac. In the town of Brookline, Massachusetts, Runkle was a chairman of the School Committee and an early advocate of mathematics and technical education. He received an LL.D from Wesleyan University, in Middletown, Connecticut.” (source: Wikipedia) WELLS. “Webster Wells (1851–1916) was an American mathematician known primarily for his authorship of mathematical textbooks. Wells was born in Roxbury, Massachusetts (now a part of Boston) on September 4, 1851. His parents, Thomas Foster Wells (1822–1903) and Sarah Morrill Wells (1828–1897), initially named him Thomas Wells, but presumably after the death of the statesman Daniel Webster in 1852, renamed him Daniel Webster Wells, and from at least 1860, he was known as Webster Wells. Samuel Adams, the Boston brewer and patriot, was a great-great-grandfather, and the poets Thomas Wells (1790–1861) and Anna Maria (Foster) Wells (1795–1868) were grandparents. The architect Joseph Morrill Wells was his brother. Beginning in 1863, Wells studied at the West Newton English and Classical School (aka the Allen School) in West Newton, Massachusetts, and then attended Massachusetts Institute of Technology, from which he graduated in 1873 with a Bachelor of Science degree. Wells taught mathematics at MIT, where he was successively instructor (1873–1880), assistant professor (1883), associate professor (1885), and full professor (1893–1911). Webster Wells married Emily Walker Langdon in Boston on June 21, 1876. Wells died in Arlington, Massachusetts, on May 23, 1916, from complications of Huntington’s Chorea. He was buried in Oak Grove Cemetery in Medford, Massachusetts.” (source: Wikipedia) HARVEY WOODWARD. “Harvey G. Woodward (born 1865; died November 18, 1930 in Portland, Maine) was the heir to the fortune of his father, industrialist William Woodward. He was one of the developers of the Tutwiler Hotel, and left a bequest which established the Indian Springs School in Shelby County. Woodward was the son of William H. and Angeline Ashton Woodward. He was raised in New England and attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. After moving to Birmingham he developed a reputation as a recluse, shunning religious practice and social gatherings. He dressed in workmen’s clothes and was occasionally seen polishing brass fittings or fussing with the equipment at his downtown buildings. While in his 40s he married the former Annie Louise Chase of Ithaca, New York, but never had children. He gave his wife a meager allowance for food and clothes. When his father died in 1910, Harvey inherited the Brown-Marx Building, Woodward Building and John Hand Building in downtown Birmingham, as well as major shares of the Woodward Iron Company and the First National Bank of Birmingham. In 1926 Woodward occupied a house at 1306 19th Street South (now the site of the Birmingham Police Department South Precinct). In 1930, while at his summer home in Weld, Maine, Woodward fell ill and was hospitalized in Portland. He died there after six weeks of apparent heart failure. He left a 25-page will that included detailed instructions for the formation of a new kind of boarding school, for white boys of British heritage. Difficulty in establishing the value of his various holdings in the midst of the Great Depression and challenges from his widow and other parties left the settlement of the estate in doubt. After numerous court appeals, the Alabama Supreme Court decided in 1947 that the establishment of a school should proceed. The planned Harvey G. Woodward School for Boys opened in 1952 as the Indian Springs School.” (source: Bhamwiki) WALKER. “Francis Amasa Walker (July 2, 1840 – January 5, 1897) was an American economist, statistician, journalist, educator, academic administrator, and an officer in the Union Army. Walker was born into a prominent Boston family, the son of the economist and politician Amasa Walker, and he graduated from Amherst College at the age of 20. He received a commission to join the 15th Massachusetts Infantry and quickly rose through the ranks as an assistant adjutant general. Walker fought in the Peninsula, Bristoe, Overland, and Richmond-Petersburg Campaigns before being captured by Confederate forces and held at the infamous Libby Prison. In July 1866, he was awarded the honorary grade of brevet brigadier general United States Volunteers, to rank from March 13, 1865, when he was 24 years old. Following the war, Walker served on the editorial staff of the Springfield Republican before using his family and military connections to gain appointment as the chief of the Bureau of Statistics from 1869 to 1870 and superintendent of the 1870 census where he published an award-winning Statistical Atlas visualizing the data for the first time. He joined Yale University’s Sheffield Scientific School as a professor of political economy in 1872 and rose to international prominence serving as a chief member of the 1876 Philadelphia Exposition, American representative to the 1878 International Monetary Conference, President of the American Statistical Association in 1882, and inaugural president of the American Economic Association in 1886, and vice president of the National Academy of Sciences in 1890. Walker led the 1880 census which resulted in a twenty-two volume census, cementing Walker’s reputation as the nation’s preeminent statistician. As an economist, Walker debunked the wage-fund doctrine and engaged in a prominent scholarly debate with Henry George on land, rent, and taxes. Walker argued in support of bimetallism and although he was an opponent of the nascent socialist movement, he argued that obligations existed between the employer and the employed. He published his International Bimetallism at the height of the 1896 presidential election campaign in which economic issues were prominent. Walker was a prolific writer, authoring ten books on political economy and military history. In recognition of his contributions to economic theory, beginning in 1947, the American Economic Association recognized the lifetime achievement of an individual economist with a ‘Francis A. Walker Medal’. Walker accepted the presidency of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1881, a position he held for fifteen years until his death. During his tenure, he placed the institution on more stable financial footing by aggressively fund-raising and securing grants from the Massachusetts government, implemented many curricular reforms, oversaw the launch of new academic programs, and expanded the size of the Boston campus, faculty, and student enrollments. MIT’s Walker Memorial Hall, a former students’ clubhouse and one of the original buildings on the Charles River campus, was dedicated to him in 1916. Walker’s reputation today is a subject of controversy due to his anti-immigration views, white supremacist views, and his brief association with the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs.” (source: Wikipedia)
