The appointment of Erik H. Erikson as professor of Human Development, effective July 1, was officially confirmed yesterday by Dean Bundy. Erikson, an expert in the study of child behavior, will teach courses at both the undergraduate and graduate level.
His lower-group course will be a broad survey of psychology, Bundy said, and his middle course will cover the general question of human development through age. He will instruct graduate students in clinical psychology, cultural anthropology, and related subjects.
