APPELMANN'S STATUS
Former Professors Connection with
University Ended November IL. 1917

In several Vermont papers statements
have appeared concerning the relation of
DR.. Appelmann to the University of Yer
mont which are so absolutely untrue that
an official correction seems needed.
These statements refer to DR.. Appel
mann as ION leave Of absence and in
dictate that the former German professor
still retains some connection with the
university.
I wish to say as positively as possible
that DR.. Appelmann has not, and has
never had, leave of absence" and that
all connection whatsoever with the uni
versity ceased November II, 1917. More
over, his chair was filled soon after his
departure by the election of DR.. F. d
Carpenter of Yale University and filled
