11 High School
Teachers Begin
Humanities Study

Eleven public high school teachers from throughout the nation have begun a year's study in the humanities at the University of Chicago as John Hay Fellows.

A total of 63 fellowships were awarded nationally for 1959-1960 by the John Hay Fellows Program. The program is operated by the John Hay Whitney Foundation through its Greenwood Fund and a grant from the Ford Foundation.

The purpose of the program is to provide high school teachers with the "opportunities for intellectual and spiritual replenishment" that their colleagues in colleges and universities enjoy.

Five institutions participate in the program: the University of Chicago, Columbia University, Harvard University, Northwestern University, and Yale University.
