Poet-playwright W. H. Auden, co-author with Christopher Isherwood of "The Dog Beneath The Skin," had only one query to make about the University during a visit yesterday: how many of its students are being psychoanalyzed?
"When I taught in New York, half of my students were undergoing psychiatric treatment of one sort or another," Auden said. "In Europe, this is a privilege reserved only for the very rich."
Auden, who won the 1948 Pulitzer Prize for poetry with his long poem, "The Age of Anxiety" was in Cambridge over the weekend to watch rehearsals of the forthcoming Harvard Dramatic Club production of "The Dog Beneath The Skin."
