PREFACE
In the following Alumni Directory the
lists are alphabetical by states and cities first,
and then by foreign countries and cities. Graduates
in the regular college courses have the year of
graduation immediately following the name. Graduates
from the associated schools have the year numeral
after the name of the school. At the time of issuing
this register it was convenient to indicate only the
lawyers, clergymen, and physicians. It was necessary
to use abbreviations and other indicia of which the
following need explanation: Ora., School of Oratory;
Mus., Conservatory of Music; T., Temporary Address,
as in the case of school teachers or students, the
name being repeated under the name of the home town
with the word "Home" after it; (?) means
"the last known address." Information to
make this list as correct as possible will be gladly
received at the college office.
Mount Vernon, Iowa, March, 1916

Notes
1. Place names in [brackets] is the spelling of the
town as given in the Iowa places reference used. The
non-bracketed spelling is what is in the original
directory.
2. The bulletin was rearranged from the original
order (by town) to alphabetical by surname, for ease
of browsing.
3. The abbreviations have been written out. In the
origional, they appear as noted in the preface.
4. The transcriber added the county, which does not
appear in the original directory. In some cases, a
town is located in more than one county. All counties
have been listed, and it is up to the researcher to
determine which county the student lived in. Iowa
place references used: IAGenWeb Iowa Towns http://iagenweb.org/state/places/a.htm; Wikipedia www.wikipedia.com and RootsMagic place finder software.
5. Every effort has been made to produce an accurate
transcription, but there likely are errors. The
typeset on several pages was very faded, making some
numbers and letters difficult to read. If the
researcher finds the accuracy in doubt, they should
consult a copy of the original directory.
