The Ford Foundation has awarded $100,000 to Richard M. Goody, professor of Meteorology. He will use the grant to finance a series of pre-doctoral fellowships in atmospheric physics.
Possible research topics in the future will include the atmospheres of other planets, spectroscopy at all wavelengths, atmospheric radiative transfer, physics of clouds, and the electrical properties of the atmosphere.
Allan R. Robinson '54, who will be made an assistant professor when he returns from England next fall, will help Goody in the administration of the fellowships. Most of the New York grant will be used for Robinson's salary.
Under his pre-doctoral program, Goody announced yesterday, Ph.D.'s will be confered in physics, applied physics, or applied mathematics. The fellowship stipends will be $3,000 annually with an additional $1,000 for summer work.
Seventy other men have been nominated for the team, which will include 25 former football greats who have distinguished themselves in their careers since graduation.
