Fred H. Harrington Assumes UW Presidency President Harrington Elected unanimously by the Board of Regents, Doctor Fred H. Harrington succeeds Doctor Elvehjem as the fourteenth president of the University of Wisconsin. Twenty-five years ago, Doctor Harrington came to the university as a history instructor, specializing in American diplomatic history, Lincoln, and the Civil War. Distinguishing himself as a historian and administrator, he has continued to serve on national educational committees, and has been active in professional societies, such as the Committee on Institutional Cooperation, the Committee of the Wisconsin faculty, and a committee of a two-year study of the role of the university in adult education. He now assumes the challenging position as president of a foremost Midwestern university offering a natural expression to his foresight and ability. Doctor Harrington has dedicated his life to the University, making it both his vocation and recreation. Released from his committment to the University of Hawaii where he was scheduled to become president, he pledges his best efforts to the “highest public responsibility,” the future expansion and advancement, the forward movement of the University of Wisconsin.
