Irving Mackay Glen
Dean, School of Music (1902-1911)
Professor of English Language & Early English Literature, Professor of Music, Director of University Glee Club, Mandolin Club, English Literature, Director of Eugene Oratorio Society

Dean Glen offered two lecture courses. The School of Music at that time consisted of four departments including piano, voice, violin, and mandolin. The Glee Club made itself and its institution known throughout the state, largely through the help of Dean Glen. The less widely known, Treble Clef, also furnished good training for the women of the university. The Eugene Oratorio Society contributed much to musical culture by the study of one or more of the standard oratorios. It was offered every winter since its organization in 1896. Dean Glen contributed to all the success of the university in musical matters and exercised a lively interest in the strengthening of his departments.
