Thus, the University's decision to offer Woods a visiting Nieman fellowship may solve Wood's problem by giving him a working base. Nieman Foundation Curator James C. Thomson Jr. has contacted groups and individuals who will contribute to a special fund for the South African journalist, to enable Woods...
Donald Woods, former editor of a leading South African opposition newspaper, recently accepted the post of visiting Nieman fellow for the term of July 1, 1978 to June 1979, James C. Thomson Jr., curator of the Nieman Foundation, said yesterday.
The special fellowship frees Woods from the normal obligations of a Nieman Fellowship, which include taking courses, remaining in full-time residence, and refraining from professional writing, Thomson said. Woods will have full access to all Harvard facilities, Thomson added.
Although the visiting fellowship does not provide a stipend, as the regular fellowships do, Thomson said private institutions and foundations are collecting funds to support Woods, his wife, and five children, during their stay at Harvard.
Thomson said he hopes the fellowship will give Woods "a base at Harvard and full freedom to bring his message to this and other communities."
