The Committee of Advisers of Foreign Students, formed by the Phillips Brooks House Association, is a great help to such students. Mr. Matthew Luce, Regent, is the Chairman, and W. E. Bennet '23, Foreign Student Secretary of the association, is Secretary. The committee includes the President of the Cosmopolitan Club, Francisco Vela. Each of the five national groups is in the charge of a professor assisted by a student, foreign or American who acts as key man. The duties of these professors are to help the students to select the proper courses, to receive them at their homes whenever convenient, and to act as advisers throughout the year. The student members of the committee assist the professors in any way they can and supplement his work by visits to points of historical interest, factories, and industrial plants. One of the undergraduates acts as head adviser of all the first-year foreign students and can appoint as many assistants as he needs.
The men in charge of the groups are: Chinese Group, Professor W. E. Hocking, K. L. Kwong, 1 G.B.; Japanese Group, Professor James Ford, R. P. Bridgman ocC.; Latin American Group, Professor J.
