The Reverend Howard Sweetser Bliss, D.D., LL.D., President of the Syrian Protestant College, Betruf, Syria, will conduct the first services in the University Chapel next Sunday morning at 11 o'clock.
Dr. Bliss was educated at Amherst College, Union Theological Seminary, and the Universities of Oxford and Goeffinger. He remained at his post in Turkey throughout the war, leaving only after the armistice. The college was founded in 1868, and is chartered under the laws of the state of New York. Besides the academic department, it has a medical school, a business school, and an archaeological institute. In 1913 1000 students were enrolled in all departments.
