“My dreams and aspirations concerning the development of Chautauqua have led me to plan largely, and to spend liberally, that the attention of great-hearted men might be attracted to our work, the sympathy of progressive educators secured, and the great centers of influence in pulpits, colleges and newspapers be commanded in the interest of Chautauqua. A careful analysis of these expenditures will show that there has been no extravagance, although a greater economy might have been exercised.” The report of Dr. Vincent closed with the following words: “Trusting that you will see your way clear to coöperate in the plans proposed, and commending our great institution to him who is the ‘Master of Assemblies,’ this report is respectfully submitted.” The report of Dr. Vincent was submitted to a special committee, which presented the following report, which was adopted as below: The special committee to which was referred the report of the Superintendent of Instruction, begs leave respectfully to report: 1. That we recommend to the Board to reorganize the union of the several associations, schools, and departments of the Chautauqua Assembly, the Chautauqua School of Theology, the Chautauqua University, and the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle, under a single organization to be known as THE CHAUTAUQUA UNIVERSITY. 2.
