The
Wilbur Lucius Cross Medal is an honor presented each year by
the Graduate School Alumni Association to a small number of outstanding
alumni. The medal recognizes distinguished achievements in scholarship,
teaching, academic administration, and public serviceall
areas in which the legendary Dean Cross excelled. Wilbur Lucius Cross himself was a scholar of distinction in English
literature. He taught at the Sheffield Scientific School, the precursor
to Yale's Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, and served as Dean
during the Graduate School's reorganization into its present form.
He rejuvenated the Yale Review as its editor.
