There has been a good deal of discussion about whether the University will appoint an "administration man" such as David M. Little '18, Secretary to the University and Master of Adams House, or will name someone unconnected with University Hall, since some faculty members feel that the individuality of the House might be sacrificed if someone unfamiliar with House traditions, new though they are, receives the post...

The University may seek to assure itself only that it is going to be able to pay the prospective appointee his salary as an associate professor, leaving to the future the question of whether it either can or wants to appoint him to a full professorship. On financial grounds there would appear to be little to choose between the two policies. The choice, essentially, is an educational...
