New Hampshire's President

DR. Fred Engelhardt, new president of the University of New Hampshire, is also an educator who was once an artilleryman, outranking Lt. Kitson by having been a major during the war. Like Dr. Kitson, President Engelhardt moved East from the University of Minnesota. Removal to New England is by way of being a homecoming for him. He was born at Naugatuck, Conn., 52 years ago, studied at Phillips Academy in Massachusetts, at Yale, Harvard and Columbia. Leaving an instructorship at Yale in 1909, he acquired a thorough acquaintanceship with public schools by teaching in them and administering them in New York, Pennsylvania and Illinois.
