Richard Cockburn Maclaurin, M.A., LL.D., Sc.D., president of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, will speak on "Some Social Experiments in New Zealand," in the Living Room of the Union tomorrow evening at 8.15 o'clock. The lecture will be open to members of the Union only.
President Maclaurin graduated from Cambridge University, England, in 1897, having shown marked ability in mathematics and law. In the same year he was elected a fellow of St. John's College, Cambridge, and in 1898 went to New Zealand University where he served successively as professor of mathematics, dean of the faculty of law, and finally as fellow of the university. In 1907 he accepted the position of professor of mathematics at Columbia and two years later was appointed president of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, which position he has held ever since.
