RAND APPOINTED EXCHANGE PROFESSOR TO THE SORBONNE

E. K. Rand '94, Pope Professor of Latin, has been appointed exchange professor to France for the first half of the academic year 1933-34. This is the first formal announcement to this effect, although the appointment was confirmed at the last meeting of the Corporation. In this capacity, Rand will deliver a series of lectures at the Sorbonne.

The custom of sending exchange professors from Harvard to France was inaugurated in 1911, through the generosity of J. H. Hyde '98, and was subsequently made permanent through a bequest of Robert Bacon '80, former ambassador to France. Professor P. J. Sachs '00, associate director of the Fogg Art Museum, holds this chair at the present time.
