I DAILY TT t-T'T 1 MQ UE IRECT SCHOOL Accepts Call To Become Direc tor Of School of Letters At University of Iowa. To Appear Here Soon Norman Foerster, for 15 years professor ,of English in the Uni versity of North Carolina and a noted authority on American literature, has accepted a call to organize and head ur a propos ed school of letters at the Uni versity of Iowa. A previous an nouncement in the newspapers ... stated erroneously that he was to become head of the depart ment of English at Iowa. r The school of letters, of which Professor Foerster is to be di rector, is to be an educational experiment of. wide significance. There is said to be no such school anywhere in the country. It will embrace the departments of Greek, Latin, romance langu ages, German,1 and English, and will have the cooperation of the departments of History - and Philosophy, the school of fine arts7 and the graduate school. - The. plan -of the school of let ters is in line with - a general tendency in our universities to break down departmental bar riers and coordinate learning. Its special object is to move gra dually in the direction of the type of literary teaching and scholar ship outlined in Professor Foer ster's recent book, "The Ameri can Scholar" published by the University of North Carolina Press, which created quite a stir in literary circles when it ap peared last fall and gained for its author much of the credit for initiating what has been called the "new Humanistic move ment." Professor Foerster soon found himself in the thick of a contro versy. Unwilling to stand and look on, he edited a series of i 'essays entitled "Humanism and America," in which he defended the attitude the "new Human ists" through a survey, of Ameri can scholarship and modern civilization. It is understood that a group of New York journalists are to reply to Professor Foerster soon with a volume entitled "The Critique of Humanism." Prof esor Foerster is a native of Pittsburgh, Ta. He was a warded degrees by Harvard and by the University of Wisconsin and : has studied abroad. He is the author of a number of books and essays and a contributor to various journals. His resigna tion is a serious loss.to the Eng- lish department of the University. - UP i I mmm v VS. Hi Ti. s : Ruth St..
