After six years of regular summer class work under an accelerated program, the university has officially announced the re-opening of the Summer School for 1948.
No longer limited to those regularly enrolled in the University, the Summer School, to which George W. Adams, Secretary of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, has been appointed as Director, will offer courses in Arts and Sciences and Education to all qualified men and women.
Eight Weeks-Term
Each student will take two courses which will carry full value as credit toward academic degrees during the eight weeks term. As in the past, courses in the Summer School, oldest in the United States, will be taught by the members of the Harvard Faculties and by visiting scholars from other institutions.
The Summer School, which had held classes since 1871, was discontinued after 1941 in favor of the accelerated program for Army and Navy Reservists. This program was continued last year and again this summer, however, to meet the needs of veterans anxious to complete their education as quickly as possible.
