April 10 will be the last date-on which application will be accepted for the Fiske Scholarship at Trinity College, Cambridge, England, according to an announcement from President Lowell's office. Men who desire to offer themselves as candidates for the scholarship during the year 1920-21 are expected to notify President Lowell in writing before that date.
The scholarship was established recently by Charles Henry Fiske, Jr., '93, in memory of his son, Charles--Henry Fiske, 3rd, '19, who, before his entrance into Harvard, was a student at Trinity College, Cambridge, and who was mortally wounded on August 12, 1928, near Fismes. The scholarship is offered by Trinity College to be tenable by an American student nominated by the President and Fellows of Harvard College.
The candidate nominated, according to the terms of the agreement between the President and Fellows and Trinity College, "must be at least qualified for admission to Harvard University." Any man who has passed his Harvard admission examinations will, therefore, be eligible. The nomination has to be accompanied (together with evidence of character and attainments) by a statement of the courses of study which the nominee proposes to take. The tenure is for one year, with power to the council of Trinity College to renew it for a second or third year. The value of the scholarship may be reckoned at about $400 per year.
