Senior Fellows

Six men and four women of the Class of 1976 comprise this year's group of Senior Fellows.

Under the program established in 1929, the fellows spend the year on an independent study project, supervised by a faculty member but unencumbered by formal class requirements. Their spring terms will be tuition-free.

The students selected and their projects as approved by a special faculty committee are as follows:

Kathleen A. DeGioia, "A Study of Stellar Accretion - Theta Orionis C";

K. Brewer Doran, "Personal Art Forms in the East African Savannah";

Andrew Gettinger, "Testing a Prototype Pulsatile Heart Pump: What are Physiological Advantages?";

Ralph W. Howe III, "An Exploration of the Moral and Political Implications of the Psychology of George Kelly";

William D. Jackson, "POESIS: Man's Creative Use of Language";

Nancy E. Kepes, "The Human Community: Past, Present, and Future";

Richard M. Nichols, "A Study Investigating the Characteristics of the Black Middle Class and its Effects on Black Dartmouth Graduates";

Robert M. Saltzman, "To Run and Wait," a study of the vice presidency;

Robert M. Schiller, "Benefits of Achieving a Synthesis Between Eastern Medicine and Contemporary Western Science"; and

Kelley J. White, "Sparrow III (A Novel of Personality Development)."

Miss Kepes is the daughter of Dr. Joseph D. Kepes '46; Miss Doran's father is A. Benedict Doran '37.
