Harvard College Dr Muensterberg Criticized for Views and Affiliations
The Harvard fellowship and law professor signers dissented from Prof. Muensterberg’s views as a teacher of American youth. He spoke publicly after the war, predicting that the United States would fail to secure peace without a separate settlement by Germany and Russia. A pioneering hypnotism author and psychologist, he opposed spiritual cures and supported laboratory methods, praised women’s intellect yet doubted their suitability for jury service, and argued against Prohibition. He authored many English and German works and was often cited in court for his insights into mental processes. His trial remarks and public opinions appeared in various legal proceedings from Boston to East Cambridge.
