HENRY VAN INGEN
1833 - 1898
The Committee appointed to draw up resolutions
upon the death of Professor Van Ingen made the
following report:
Whereas: in the death of Henry Van Ingen who for
thirty-three years was head of the School of Art
and Professor of Art in Vassar College, and was
closely identified throughout this period with its
life and varied interests, Vassar College has lost
an officer whose efficiency, whose sterling qual-
ities of mind and heart, whose uprightness and manly
strength, whose cheerful and healthy interest in all
relations of life and whose personal affection for
his coworkers have rendered his services of the
highest value and have made his loss of no ordinary
character:
Therefore, be it resolved: that this Faculty here-
by express its sense of great personal loss, and
its sympathy with the family which has been so sorely
bereaved.
Also resolved: that a copy of this resolution be
sent to the family.
