STAFF OF ENGLISH
SCHOOL ANNOUNCED

The preliminary announcement of
the staff of the new English School at
Bread Loaf makes it clear that Mid
dlebury will strive for as complete sue
cess in this undertaking as she has at
tanned in her now famous foreign Ian
guage schools There will be this dif-
ference, however, that while the for
eign language schools grew up almost
entirely separate from the correspond
ing departments in the College, the
English staff will be fully represented
in the new School from its beginning
thus giving that close connection which
must obtain if the work of the School
is to be a real Middlebury project.
Professor Wright will act as Dean
of the English School and Professor
Dawson will serve both as Assistant
Dean and as an instructor. DR.. Har-
rington, formerly of the English De
partment and a popular teacher of
literature, will offer a course in Brown
ing. Professor Cady will contribute
lectures on Shakespearean subjects
and on Methods of Teaching Compost
ton. With the Middlebury contingent
of teachers should be reckoned DR.
Julian w. Abernethy. Dr. Abernethy
is a trustee of the College, has taught
in previous Summer Sessions at Mid
dlebury, and is well known as an au-
thor and editor Of texts for students of
English.
OF the instructors coming from other
institutions it may be said that DR..
Stanley T. Williams OF Yale was one of
the most successful teachers in the ses-
sion of last summer and his return will
be welcomed by all who took courses
under him. Miss Alice H. Spaulding,
Head of the Department of English in
the Brookline High School, has not
only attained success as a teacher OF
drama, but has served as Secretary
treasurer of the AZ Workshop from its
beginning and is one of its most help
full members Mrs. May B. Severy has
had a rich experience as a teacher OF
English in public schools, in normal
schools, and at the University Of Chi
cago in the Summer Sessions of 1918
and 1919 Mr. Woodbury. is remem-
bered by all Middlebury students who
were so fortunate as to attend any OF
his lecture talks on Emerson last year.
Mr.. Harold Severy is a Middlebury
graduate who will conduct singing and
direct the out-of- door work of those
students who may desire to do summer
botanizing in their spare time.
Other instructors will be announced
later and fuller notice may be expected
in The Campus of the part which each
will take in the program of the Bread
Loaf School.
