Playwright Lillian Hellman will be a guests of Adams House this Spring and will teach a non-credit course, "A Seminar in Writing," for residents of the House.
President Pusey will ask the Board of Overseers to approve the appointment of William Liller '48, Robert Wheeler Wilson Professor of Applied Astronomy, as new Master of Adams House, a high University official said yesterday.
A member of Adams House as an undergraduate, Liller has been a Fellow of the House since 1962, where the Science Tables series has been his special interest. Liller has also served on the College's Admissions Committee for the past three years.
Dean Glimp, who said he knew nothing about the appointment, said Liller was "a wonderful guy." Glimp met Liller when both were members of the Adams House Senior Common Room. Glimp was Dean of Admissions when Liller first joined the Admissions Committee.
Students have speculated that if the Overseers approve Liller, the Adams House image could change drastically. "What will happen to the artists and musicians," one said, "with a scientist for Master?"
