                       Dean. Thomas Poe Cooper

                              1881 - 1958

            Dean Emeritus Thomas Poe Cooper was born at Pekin, Illinois,
     on March 2, 1881, the son of James Radford Cooper and Sue Belle
     Poe Cooper. He died in Lexington, Kentucky, on February 19, 1958,
     in his 77th year of age. Survivors in his immediate family are his
     wvidow, Mrs. Essie Burgan Cooper, whom he married in 1912, and
     his daughter, Mrs, Catherine Cooper Hammond, and two grand-
     children, Thomas Taylor Hammond and Susan Elaine Hammond.

            He was awarded the degree of Bachelor of Science in Agri-
     culture by the University of Minnesota in 1908. In recognition of
     his professional attainments, Clemson Agricultural College in 1937,
     the University of Minnesota in 1949 and Berea College in 1952 con-
     ferred upon him the honorary degree Doctor of Science; Georgetown
     College honored him with the Doctor of Laws in 1943,

             Dean Cooper came to the University of Kentucky on January
      1, 1918, at the invitation of the late President Frank L. McVey
      under whom he had served at the University of North Dakota. His
      distinguished service as Dean of Agriculture, Director of the
      Agricultural Experiment Station and Director of the Agricultural
      Extension Service covered more than 33 years.  During one of
      those years, 1940-41, he also served as Acting President of the
      University. He was on leave in the year 1925-26 during which
      time he served as Chief of the Bureau of Agricultural Economics
      of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. The imposing list of
      professional services by, activities of, and awards to Dean
      Cooper reveal a life of dedication and great usefulness. It is
      particularly fitting to call attention to his distinguished service in
      the Association of Land Grant Colleges and Universities which is
      without parallel in American education. He also served as a
      Trustee of Berea College.

             As an administrator, Dean Cooper was a keen judge of human
      nature.   He also had unusual capacity to grasp problems quickly,
      to formulate plans for their solution, and to direct the thinking and
      efforts of other people. That he was a man of large understanding
      and sound judgment is widely known; those who disagreed with him
      in matters of policy admired him for his fairness and integrity.
      Perhaps the most evident characteristics radiated by Dean
      Cooper were his devotion to duty, his love for the rural people of
      Kentucky and his zeal for their welfare.

            Dean Cooper was a man of simple tastes, modest and friend-
     lyv When possible, he walked to his office; he also derived great
     pleasure in working with flowers and vegetables, and in strolling
     over the Experiment Station Farm.  He found time to attend
     numerous student affairs, and he never missed an opportunity to
     commend a student for a meritorious accomplishment. He made
     provision in his will to recognize in a financial way worthy attain-
     ments in Agriculture and Home Economics. He was also a man
     of strong religious convictions, and he rendered faithful service
     to his Church.

            In the passing of Thomas Poe Cooper, the College of Agri-
     culture and Home Economics, the Agricultural Experiment Station
     and the Agricultural Extension Service have lost a beloved Dean and
     Director; the University has likewise lost a great servant; those
     who knew him have lost an esteemed friend and wise counsellor.



     Upon motion duly made, seconded and carried, the above Resolution
was approved and ordered spread upon the Minutes and a copy sent to the be-
reaved family
