Stearns to Byron Clark, State Committee of Young Men's Christian Associations (YMCAs) of Vermont, Burlington, April 5, 1928 Relation A related resource My dear Mr. Clark: I have your letter of April 3 and the accompanying blank inquiring about Charles K.H. Sun, a Chinese ward of mine now at Amherst College. I have filled out the blank and am returning it herewith, but I can’t refrain from adding a personal word in Sun’s behalf. Charles Sun is a rare boy, a fine scholar, a perfect little gentleman. and as clean and wholesome as they are made. He comes from one of the best families in China, his father having served during the war as Head of the Chinese Red Cross and as heads of various other philanthropic organizations both before and since the war. Charlie lived in my house for several years while he was in school here, and I know him in consequence pretty intimately and this leads me to recommend him to you almost without reservation. I am sure you would find him a wonderfully helpful member of your force, and I am sure, too, that it would be a splendid thing for your boys to get this intimate and friendly contact with such a clean-cut and wholesome representative of his race. It helps mightily to break down prejudices and that’s worth a good deal in itself. Further, he is qualified to enter actively and enthusiastically into the general activities, athletic and others, of camp life. He is a good swimmer, an excellent soccer player, and a good fellow on the trail. Don’t let him get away from you; at least that would be my advice.

Stearns to Dean M.A. Harris, Elmira College, April 10, 1928 Relation A related resource My dear Miss Harris: I have your formal notice of the Dean’s warning given to my ward, Mary Sun. I am wondering if you would be willing to write me frankly just what Mary’s difficulties seem to be and what advice you have to offer that would perhaps aid us in contributing to their remedy. Naturally I feel a pretty big responsibility for these foreign wards of mine, and Mary has always been a problem. On the whole, though, when she was here she worked hard at her studies, but I have never been able to feel that she had given her best to the work at Elmira, and largely, I judge, because of no real interest in it. She has pleaded for several years now to be allowed to study nursing, a plan of which her father has never approved. On the other hand, she has often expressed her lack of enthusiasm for the work which she is doing, and I am afraid that it is the reflection of this attitude that accounts in large measure for the poor results. I am anxious, however, to do everything I can to help the girl avoid a real disaster, for a failure to meet the college requirements would, as you know, be far more seriously regarded by upper-class Chinese parents than it would by American fathers and mothers.

Stearns, April 12, 1928 Subject The topic of the resource Letter from M.A. Harris, Dean, Elmira College, to Alfred E. Stearns, April 12, 1928 Relation A related resource My dear Mr. Stearns: I think you are exactly right in regard to Mary Sun. Nobody here doubts that she has ability. Our doubt is in regard to her interest. Is it not possible that her father might be induced to approve of a shift in her college course which would allow her to do what a number of American girls are doing here. The course they take is a five year course. If Mary took it it would be necessary for her to work three more years. The five year course specializes here at the college in Physical Sciences and allows the student to take practical work and instruction at the Arnot Ogden Hospital so that at the close of the fifth year they are able to graduate with a B. S. degree from this college and to take their diploma in nursing at the hospital. This program calls for summer appointments at the hospital and is likely to take also other vacations but the girls who are taking the course are full of enthusiasm and do not seem to grudge the time that is stolen from what would otherwise be recreation. If Mary Sun’s people desire for her the advantages of a thorough college education and if they are willing to compromise with her in the way I suggest it may be that her problem will be solved. If you are in correspondence with her parents or can bring pressure to bear through other friends in China it seems to me that a very great kindness would be done both to the family and to Mary. If something of this kind can be arranged I think that so far as the college is concerned Miss Sun’s present low stand work will be overlooked in the hope of better results next year. If something of this kind cannot be done it seems to me unjust to the girl and her classmates and the college for the present situation to continue. Our president, Dr Frederick Lent, is and has been for some weeks quite ill so that it is and has been impossible to report any college matters to him. I feel however that he is likely to approve the plan I suggest and I shall be interested to hear what you, who know more about the conditions at Miss Sun’s home, regard as possible.
