Draft Registration Event

Wed., Oct. 16, 1940

The specially-formed Dickinson College Registration Board held a draft registration event in the McCauley Room on Wednesday, October 16, 1940.  The event was held to help the students and faculty of the College comply with the recently-passed Burke-Wadsworth Selective Service Bill.  Ninety-two students and seven faculty members registered at the event.  The Registration Board consisted of four WWI veterans: college treasurer Gilbert Malcolm and Professors E. A. Vuilleumier, W. H. Norcross, and Ralph W. Schecter.
