Radcliffe, Two Others Search For Presidents

Two members of the Radcliffe Search Committee met with students yesterday and Wednesday to discuss a successor to President Bunting, who will retire June 30, 1972. The Radcliffe Union of Students (RUS) arranged the open meetings.

Bunting's successor will be the President of Radcliffe College and the dean of Radcliffe College and the dean of Radcliffe under the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, as stipulated under the terms of the non-merger merger.

Candy Lee '72, the only undergraduate committee member, and Francis C.M. Donovan '28, Trustee of Radcliffe College, met Wednesday in Currier House with Ann Glendening '72. RUS vice president, and seven other students. Yesterday Lee met again in Winthrop House with Mary Claugus '72. RUS representative to the governing boards of Radcliffe, and one other Radcliffe student.

The committee is now considering over 200 women, Donovan told the students Wednesday. It has been working since July, and should present its recommendations to the trustees of Radcliffe in January, Lee said Wednesday.

Neither Donovan nor Lee would name any candidates. "We don't want them to be embarrassed or to raise any false hopes," Donovan said.

Donovan spoke at length Wednesday about the new president's job. "She would be very much interested in having more women on the faculty. It would be necessary for her to do some teaching."

Donovan added that the new president would have a great deal to do with the expanding role of women in the university.

She said that many Radcliffe alumnae and Harvard faculty members had written to the committee to recommend women to succeed Bunting.

"We have a number of women lawyers and doctors, and a great many have other graduate degrees," she said.

Brandeis

Henry Rosovsky, professor of Economics and chairman of the Economics Department, is still under consideration for the presidency of Brandeis to replace retiring president Charles Schottland, according to a recent article in the Brandeis Justice.

According to the Justice, Rosovsky is one of three remaining candidates being considered, along with Marver H. Bernstein, professor of Politics and Public Affairs at Princeton University G. Cohen '37, chairman of the Brandeis Chemistry department.

An earlier report in the Justice listed six possible contenders, not including Cohen.

The final announcement by the search committee is expected by January 1.

Princeton

William G. Bowen, Provost of Princeton University, and Aaron Lemonick. Dean of the Graduate School of Princeton University, are said to be the leading contenders for the 17th president of Princeton University, the Daily Princetonian reported Wednesday.

The Princetonian, which said its information came from "a highly informed, but unofficial source," also said that six others are under consideration, including John F. Wilson '54, assistant dean of the college at Princeton and associate professor of Religion at Princeton University.

The Princetonian also reported that the list of candidates was not necessarily inclusive and may include some candidates who have since been eliminated from contention.
