  • THE INSTITUTE for ADVANCED STUDY Princeton, New Jersey
    THE INSTITUTE FOR ADVANCED STUDY Princeton, New Jersey Some Introductory Information November, 195>1 HERBERT H. I AP£.rS N. Y. The Institute for Advanced Study is devoted to the encouragement, support and patronage of learning—of science, in the old, broad, undiffer- entiated sense of the word. The Institute partakes of the character both of a university and of a research institute; but it also differs in signifi- cant ways from both. It is unlike a university, for instance, in its small size—its academic mem- bership at any one time numbers only a little over a hundred. It is unlike a university in that it has no formal curriculum, no scheduled courses of instruction, no commitment that all branches of learning be represented in its faculty and members. It is unlike a research institute in that its pur- poses are broader, that it supports many separate fields of study, that, with one exception, it main- tains no laboratories; and above all in that it wel- comes temporary members, whose intellectual develop- ment and growth are one of its principal purposes, ^he Institute, in short, is devoted to learning, in the double sense of the continued education of the individual, and of the intellectual enterprise on which he is embarked. The Institute for Advanced Study was founded in 1930, by a gift of Mr. Louis Bamberger and his sister, Mrs, Felix Fuld, The Founders entrusted the general supervision and furthering of the Institute's purposes to a Board of Trustees of fif- teen members, and to a Director elected by them, who should have primary responsibility for its academic affairs.

To a peculiar degree the Indiana milieu was created to inspire love. It has the unspoiled generosity, the frankness, the toil, the taciturn courage and the exasperating ineptness of natural man himself. One listens to the winds sighing through beeches, or plods through autumnal dri::=le with ga:;e divided between the cracks ofthe Board Walk and that miraculous personal vision that for no two people is produced alike, whether it be conjuredfrom books, or from inner song, or from liquor, orfrom a co-ed's smile or from all together.

  • Leadership Giving to the Institute
    Leadership Giving to the Institute While the Institute welcomes gifts of any amount, some donors find that they are able to make gifts of a larger size. Such contributions have a significant impact on the Institute’s ability to fund its programs and, in particular, the work of current Members. To recognize this exceptional support from its former Members and Visitors, the Institute has created three giving categories, the Flexner, Aydelotte, and Oppenheimer Circles. Flexner Circle ($500 – $999) Benefits include: • Donor’s name on a specially designed bookplate in an IAS library book • Priority ticketing for the Institute’s Edward T. Cone Concert Series • Listing in the Institute’s Annual Report as a leadership donor and Circles member Aydelotte Circle ($1,000 – $1,499) Benefits include: • All of the above as well as • Institute ID card providing access to the IAS Dining Hall for lunches and dinners (normal meal fees apply) Oppenheimer Circle ($1,500 and more) Benefits include: • All of the above as well as • Invitations to Friends of the Institute events, such as the Holiday Party and Annual Picnic hosted by the Director • Use of the Institute’s guest house, Marquand House, for overnight accommodations (as space is available, normal housing rates apply) For further information on making a leadership gift and on the benefits of joining one of the Circles, please contact Linda Geraci at [email protected] or (609) 734-8259. The first three Directors of the Institute for Advanced Study served a total of 36 years, from its founding in 1930 to 1966. Abraham Flexner (1866 –1959), more than any other individual, conceived and developed the idea that found expression as the Institute for Advanced Study.

  • One Hundred Years of Economics at Swarthmore Joshua Hausman1
    One Hundred Years of Economics at Swarthmore Joshua Hausman1 Swarthmore class of 2005 This paper presents a history of the Department of Economics at Swarthmore College from the founding of the college until 1970. Two themes dominate this narrative. First, the history of economics teaching at Swarthmore is one of nearly continuous growth and professionalization. When political economy was first offered at Swarthmore in 1872, there was only a single year-long course in the subject. It was taught by Maria Sanford, whose post- secondary education was at a Normal School, and who doubled as the sole professor of history at Swarthmore.2 In 1972, in contrast, the Swarthmore Economics Department offered twelve semester-long economics courses and eight seminars. It had eleven full and part-time members, seven of whom had economics Ph.Ds. And members of the Department were specialized teachers, usually teaching only a couple subject areas within economics. Despite this dramatic growth, there is a notable continuity in the history of economics at Swarthmore: a devotion to Quaker causes and social justice that often superseded purely theoretical interests. Maria Sanford, for example, would become famous for her commitment to progressive causes; after leaving Swarthmore, she gave public lectures that promoted the University of Minnesota. In the 1930’s, Patrick Malin, a member of the Department from 1930 to 1950 and a devout Quaker, worked unsuccessfully to make Swarthmore admit African-American students. Malin left Swarthmore in 1950 to lead the American Civil Liberties Union. Sanford and 1 Research assistant in the Division of International Finance of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
