Farnsworth to Give Course on Religion

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Dr. Dana L. Farnsworth, director of University Health Services, will give a new course in the Divinity School during the spring term, Rev. George H. Williams, acting dean of the school, announced yesterday.

Titled "Psychology of Religion, 14," the course will be a study of personality, development, and interpersonal relationships. It will deal with the insights of religion, medicine, and psychiatry in relation to the duties of a pastor. The cultural, environmental, and religious factors in the development of personalities will also be studied.

Open to a limited number of under graduates, the course will combine lectures, the clinical analysis, and discussion, with attention to both the theoretical and practical aspects of the field.

This is the first course that Farnsworth, who was appointed this fall, has taught at the University.
