Bachelor of Ugliness

One of the highest honors that a student could achieve was the "Bachelor of Ugliness," a title given to the male undergraduate student believed to be most representative of ideal young manhood and the class's most popular member, devised by Professor William H. Dodd in 1885. In 1906, that honor was given to Hamilton.
