Statistics Major Gets Faculty OK

The Faculty of Arts and Science voted yesterday to make Statistics a field of concentrations for undergraduates. The Committee on Educational Policy had approved the move last Dec. 18 by a vote of nine to zero.

Under the new legislation, the department of Statistics is empowered to recommend candidates for the A.B. degree in Statistics with or without honors.

The Faculty also heard a minute on the late Arthur Darby Nock, who was Frothingham Professor of the History of Religion, delivered by Zeph Stewart, Professor of Greek and Latin. A minute on the late V.O. Key, who was Jonathan Trumbull Professor of American History and Government, was delivered by Merie Fainsod, Leroy B. Williams Professor of Political Sciences.
