Senior Fellowships

Six juniors of the College—William Kimball Flaecus, Everett Huntington Hymen, Richard Jackson, Donald Alan Murray, William Gaston Raoul, and Robert Stuart Turner—have been selected to hold senior fellowships next year, according to an announcement by President Hopkins, April 18.

These six coveted appointments come to the selected juniors with the only requirements that as senior fellows they must be in residence at Dartmouth College during their senior year and must throughout the year be in good standing as members of the College. During the tenure of their fellowships, they will be given complete freedom to pursue their studies in whatever manner and direction they choose. They will not be required to attend classes—although they will have the privilege of attending any—and they will not be required to take any examinations. Special tutorial guidance in any subject will be furnished them if they wish it. They will pay no tuition fees to the College. At the end of the year of their fellowships, they will be given their degrees.

The senior fellowships were established three years ago, by vote of the trustees of the College, "in order that added stimulus may be given to the genuine spirit of scholarly attainment in undergraduate life and the cultural motives of the liberal arts college may be emphasized; and in order that the tendencies of the honors courses towards freedom from routine requirements may be carried to further development in the cases of men outstandingly competent to utilize such freedom; and further that illustration may be given in the undergraduate body that the acquisition of learning is made possible largely by individual search and in but minor degree by institutional coercion."

President Hopkins made the selection of the fellows from recommendations submitted by members of the faculty and undergraduates, with the aid of an advisory committee composed of Craven Laycock, dean of the faculty; Professor Lambuth, chairman of the committee on educational policy; Professor Poole, junior class officer; Professor Neef, director of the Bureau of Personnel Research; and E. Gordon Bill, dean of freshmen and director of admissions.
