Ford Group Lists Harvard as Tenth In 'Scholar' Poll

Harvard is tenth among the nation's universities in producing scholars, the Ford Foundation announced yesterday.

A scholar, however, was defined as "a college graduate who went on to get a Ph.D. degree or was awarded a major university fellowship, private foundation grant or government fellowship."

The Foundation sampled over 7000 graduates of 562 institutions, in its survey.

The study, conducted by Robert H. Knapp '42 and Joseph J. Greenbaum, psychology professors at Wesleyan University, listed M.I.T. as 17th, Amherst as 28th, and Williams as 29th.
