- Notes:
-
Marshall Conant (1801-1873) had achieved success as a teacher, scientist and architect before succeeding Tillinghast as principal of the State Normal School at Bridgewater in 1853. Under his leadership, the curriculum expanded to include new science courses and the course of study was lengthened to one and one-half years. Conant resigned the principalship in 1860 and later served as Assistant to George Boutwell, Director of the Internal Revenue Service in Washington, D.C.
