Although the Endowment Fund campaign is by no means completed, the progress of the campaign, together with certain other special gifts to the School of Education, justified the President and Fellows in setting aside the balance of the sum necessary to start the School. This action assures the receipt from the General Education Board of their gift of $500,000 and establishes the School of Education on a firm basis. The action does not in any way alter the plans of the Harvard Endowment organization to continue their campaign...
