THE FACULTY

ASSISTANT Professor of English L. B. Noll ■ Jr. has been awarded a Fulbright Lectureship to Spain. The duration of the award is for eight months, starting in October 1960, at the University of Zaragoza. Professor Noll will give two courses in American literature for fourth - and fifth-year students taking the program for the Liceniatura degree. He will also give a course in English grammar for fifth-year students. Professor Noll, who will be on leave for the entire year, plans to sail for Spain in early September. He came to Dartmouth in 1954 from Beloit College.

PROFESSOR of English F. Cudworth Flint participated recently in the Arts Symposium on the Creative Process held at Randolph-Macon Woman's College in Lynchburg, Virginia. He was one of 56 faculty representatives from colleges in the East, Midwest and South. He was among the group of poetry representatives at the symposium.

PROFESSOR Ralph A. Burns of the Department of Education left Hanover in March for a month's study-tour of the Federal Republic of Germany as guest of that government. At the invitation of the German Foreign Office, Professor Burns traveled on the maiden flight of the Lufthansa Air Lines jet service between New York and Frankfurt-am-Main. In Germany he observed the significant developments in cultural and educational affairs in the decade since he was there as a U.S. government official with the occupation forces. After World War II, Professor Burns spent four years in Western Germany as chief of the cultural affairs branch of the Office of Military Government. Later, as chief of exchanges staff, he developed the Exchange of Persons Program under the U.S. High Commissioner. Under his direction more than 10,000 German nationals in all walks of life came to the United States to study and observe democracy in action. The program also took many hundreds of American specialists to Germany. During this time Professor Burns also negotiated the Fulbright Agreement between the United States and Germany. He has recently returned from Paraguay where he made a general survey of the National University of Asuncion.

ANOTHER far-traveling member of the • Dartmouth faculty is Professor Laurence I. Radway, chairman of the Government Department. He went abroad recently to study the possibilities of setting up a student intern program in Egypt, Lebanon, Turkey, and other countries in the Near East. The trip took a little over a month and Professor Radway's itinerary included stop-overs in Paris, Rome, and the capital cities of the major countries in the Near East.
