Morse to Take Mathematics Professorship at Princeton

Will Hold Position at Institute for Advanced Study

Marston Morse, professor of Mathematics, has agreed to take a Professorship at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, and will start work there next fall.

The Institute, which was founded in 1930 by Louis Matherger and Mrs. Felix Fuld, is located at Five Hall on the Princeton Campus, and Carries on advanced study in the general field of Mathematics. The organization of a School of Economics and Politics has been planned, but has not as yet been perfected or financed.

Professor Morse took his Master's Degree from Harvard in 1915, and a Ph.D. in 1917. He joined the Harvard Faculty in 1926, and soon was appointed to a full Professorship. He is the author of "Calculus of Variations in the Large."
