The twenty-fourth President of Harvard was born in Council Bluffs, Iowa, on April 4, 1907, and acceeded to his present position 46 years later. After graduating from Abraham Lincoln High School in Council Bluffs, he entered Harvard College, where he majored in English and Compara- tive Literature, and graduated with an A.B. degree magna cum laude in 1928. Mr. Pusey then traveled in Europe for one year, and upon his return began teaching near New York City, at the Riverdale Country School. After receiving his M.A. degree in 1932, he served as part-time assistant in History at Harvard during 1932-33 and spent the following year in Greece as an Archibald Coolidge Fellow. In 1935, President Pusey went to Lawrence College as a Sophomore Tutor in an experimental program of liberal arts education, but subsequently returned to Harvard to complete his graduate work, receiving a Ph.D. in 1937. Mr. Pusey was an Assistant Professor of History and Literature at Scripps College from 1938 to 1940. In the latter year, he joined the faculty of Wesleyan University to take part in the development of new liberal arts courses for freshmen and soph- omores, and three years later, became an Associate Professor of Classics. In 1944, at the age of 37, he was named President of Lawrence College, where he served for nine years. 1 In 1953, Mr. Pusey was elected President of Harvard. His administration has been marked by vigorous efforts to increase the endowment funds of the University and to improve its physical plant. NATHAN MARSH PUSEY Prefident of Harvard University
