Timeline
Following his retirement from the presidency of Goddard College, Pitkin continued a very active life as a consultant, advisor, and trustee to many educational institutions. He died on May 3, 1986, at the age of 84.
On March 13, 1938, the Goddard College Charter was recorded with the Secretary of State's Office in Montpelier, Vermont. The campus was moved from Barre to Greatwood Farm in Plainfield, Vermont, that year and Pitkin remained as president of the college until his retirement in 1969.
The aims of the college, as stated in the first catalog in 1938, included the education of men and women for real living through the actual facing of real life problems. The Goddard College philosophy established by Pitkin was initially founded on four principles:
The Seminary was struggling to compete with public schools and on the verge of closing. In the fall of 1936, under Pitkin's leadership, the Seminary faculty began a careful and prolonged study of the requirements of modern education in an attempt to determine what changes were needed in their own educational program. From these studies it became evident to the trustees and faculty that in order for Goddard to survive, an entirely new institution would need to be created. As a result, a conference was held in New York City under the chairmanship of Dr. William Heard Kilpatrick to design a radically different approach to education for this new college.
Pitkin held a number of teaching positions and headmasterships at various places in New England before being invited to become the Director of Goddard Junior College (an outgrowth of the earlier Seminary) in 1935. In 1936 Pitkin became the President of Goddard Seminary and Junior College.
Pitkin married Helen Kathleen McKelvey in 1924. They had three children.
Royce Pitkin received his early education in the Marshfield public schools and at Goddard Seminary in Barre, Vermont. In 1923 he was awarded the Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Vermont where he majored in agriculture. He received the M.A. and Ph.D. from the Columbia University Teachers College in 1928 and 1933.
Royce Stanley “Tim” Pitkin (June 7, 1901– May 3, 1986) was an American educator. He was President of Goddard College from 1938 to 1969.
