G. K. Martin '32, president of the Phillips Brooks House Association, K. F. Mather, Professor of Geology, G. W. Allport, Assistant professor of Psychology, E. S. Amazeen '31, graduate head of Phillips Brooks House, and The Reverend T. L. Harris, University Adviser in religion will represent Harvard at a New England student-faculty conference which will meet at East Northfield this weekend to further the responsibility of the colleges to the outside world.
The delegates at the conference will be both students and faculty members from all of New England men's and women's colleges, including Harvard, Dartmouth, Brown, Boston University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Radcliffe, Wheaton, Smith, and Mt. Holyoke.
The conference is more or less an outgrowth of a National conference which was held at Detroit last spring. The discussion will center upon the purposes of college education and definite projects which colleges can carry out for the benefit of the community at large, such as unemployment relief. Dr. Speaight of Dartmouth is chairman of the committee in charge of the conference, of which Professor Mather is a member.
Members of the business world will also attend this conference, among them Mr. Ralph Flanders, author of "The Taming of the Machine." The conference will last from Friday afternoon through Sunday.
