Purcell, Clyde M. Kluckhohn, professor of Anthropology and director of the Russian Research Center, and Howard Mumford Jones, professor of English, spoke before a large crowd at Kirkland House.
Nobel Prize winner Purcell said that the physical scientist "must like the atmosphere of research and the type of challenge it presents."
Kluckhohn and Purcell said that there are many opportunities for research in their fields outside as well as within the university community.
"There is more to scientific research than the advertisements' picture of a little man in a white coat swinging a test tube," stated Edward M. Purcell, professor of Physics, at last night's conference on Scholarship and Research.
Jones, president of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, will address the group on the "Humanities." Kluckhohn will speak about the "Social Sciences." Purcell, who won the Nobel Prize last year, will speak on the "Physical Sciences."
