Senior Fellows
May 1960

SEVEN members of this year's junior class have been awarded Senior Fellowships for 1960-61. This program, established in 1929 by President-Emeritus Hopkins, enables selected students to carry on intensive study on a topic in their major field of study or related interests. There are no regular classes or examinations, but each fellow must consult regularly with a faculty adviser and write a comprehensive paper on his topic at the end of the year.

The Senior Fellows are announced each spring by the President, following recommendation of a faculty committee. The successful candidates for 1960-61 and their topics are:

Steven F. Cohn '61, Highland Park, Ill., "The Frustration-Aggression Hypothesis and Its Relation to Active and Passive Deviancy";

Jon R. Davidson '61, Forest Hills, N. Y., "A Study of Resistance to Change in Patterns of Interaction";

Stephen Grossberg '61, Jackson Heights, N. Y., "An Analysis of Contemporary Psychological Theory";

Gerald P. Kaminsky '61, Woodmere, Long Island, N. Y., "The Money Market and Its Relation to Economic Stability";

David D. Schmidt '61, Denver, Colo., "A Study of the Anomalous Characteristics of the Viscosity of Blood";

John B. Starr '61, Berkeley, Calif., "Soviet Strategies in Southeast Asia."
