PROFESSOR SCHOFIELD IN BERLIN.

Misinformation alone can account for the press reports from Berlin stating that the fact that Professor Schofield is a British subject has caused some unfavorable comment there. Long before Harvard's representative left, it was known in Germany that he was of Canadian birth, but no objection was offered. It is perhaps not generally understood that the exchange of professors is an academic arrangement which involves no diplomatic complications. As the holder of a Harvard degree and a member of the Faculty, Professor Schofield is a true representative of the University, and as such he will be received by the German universities.
