Harvard Gets $105,000 In Wilson Fund Grant

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Harvard has received $150,000 from the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation, it was announced last Sunday. Wilson grants are made annually to advance graduate education and to aid particular students who have completed more than one year of graduate study.

According to the provisions of the Foundation, three-fourths of the money must go to individual graduate follows; the University may allocate the rest. In the past, Dean Ford has decided how the money was to be used. Most of the grant is channelled into scholarship funds for prospective teachers.

This year the Woodrow Wilson Foundation gave almost $2 million to $5 schools in the United States and Canada, working on a formula which allots $2000 to each individual scholar. At present, there are about 195 Woodrow Wilson Fellows at Harvard.
