NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

In memory of Joseph H. Choate '52, the Harvard Club of New York City has founded the Joseph Hodges Choate Memorial Fellowship. This represents a gift to the University of a principal sum of forty thousand dollars, or a larger sum if the subscriptions warrant it. The yearly income from this is to be enjoyed by a British subject coming from the University of Cambridge, England, to study in any department of this University. As John Harvard was graduated from Emmanuel College. Cambridge, in 1631, the committee in charge of the Fellowship is hoping that it may serve as a model for similar foundations at the University and other colleges, both in the United States and in Great Britain.

The candidate for the Choate Fellowship shall belong to one of the following groups; (1) Holder of the degree of B.A. of not more than three years' standing from the trade of taking his degree: (2) a matriculated undergraduate of net more than three years' standing from the date of his matriculation. Appointments to the Fellowship will be made each year in the usual manner of such appointments at the University, following the nomination and recommendation of the Vice-Chancellor of Cambridge, England, Failing a candidate from Cambridge, the Vice-Chancellor may select a candidate from any other university in the United Kingdom. A provision is made that the same person may hold the Fellowship for three consecutive years upon three consecutive nominations.
