Harvard Alumni Bulletin, June 19
Special Features of the Summer School
In addition to the usual academic program the Harvard Summer School will offer this year several courses and a series of special interest to visitors to England during the celebration of Massachusetts Bay Tercentenary. Some of these, given by visiting professors of note, form part of the regularly scheduled courses counting for academic degrees, while others are open to the public and are given at hours in the afternoon or evening convenient for visitors who are not in regular attendance at the summer session.
On the evening preceding the historical excursion to Concord and Lexington, to be conducted on July 19 by Professor George S. Miller of Tufts College, the Yale University Press film of the “Opening Scenes of the Revolution in New England” will be shown.
On Wednesday evening, July 30, Kenneth B. Murdock, ’16, Assistant Professor of English at Harvard, will lecture on “Literary and Intellectual Life in Puritan New England.” The following evening he will lecture on “The Puritan as Literary Artist.” The third lecture in this series will be given on Monday evening, August 4, on “The Literary Background of the Revolution in New England.”
One of the regular courses in the academic program will be Professor Thomas J. Wertenbaker’s lectures at 11 A. M., daily on “The History of the Thirteen Colonies to 1760,” in which the growth of the Puritan Commonwealths, both in Old and New England, will be stressed.
On Thursday evening, July 24, William C. Lane, ’81, Librarian, Emeritus, of the Harvard College Library, will lecture on the “Early History of Harvard.”
Among the lectures on general educational subjects will be those by Sir John Adams, occurring at 4 P. M. on July 15, 22, 29, and August 5. Lectures on current problems of educational method will be given on July 16 and 17, when Professor Clark L. Hull will speak on “Aptitude Testing” and Rufus W. Stimson, ’95, will talk on “Balanced Education”. C. W. Bailey, headmaster of the Holt Secondary School in Liverpool, will give information concerning English Secondary Schools; he will lecture on Monday evening, July 28. A week later, on Monday, at 4 P. M., the cause of the Progressive Education Association will be presented by I. Milner Dorey of the Association.
Visitors from other institutions form approximately one-third of the Summer School Faculty. This year in the Department of History and English the representation of distinguished visitors is particularly strong, but there are outstanding men from other institutions in almost every department represented in the curriculum. In Education Harvard again welcomes Sir John Adams, whose special course of lectures open to the public is noted above.
In the Department of Government two courses of current interest will be given by Professor J. Ralph Hayden of the University of Michigan, the first dealing with the “British Commonwealth of Nations,” and the second with “Modern Imperialism.”
Courses in Ancient History will be offered by Professor William S. Ferguson, who has held the chair of history at Harvard since 1912. He studied at McGill and Cornell Universities and has taught at the University of California and the American School of Classical Studies in Athens. He is well known to specialists in ancient history for his books on Hellenistic Athens and Greek Imperialism, and for his notable contributions to the Cambridge Ancient History.
European History will be presented by Professor Carl L. Becker of Cornell University, who has taught previously at Pennsylvania State College, Dartmouth, and the University of Kansas. Although
