Johns Hopkins to Return to Graduate-Only Courses
Johns Hopkins plans to return to graduate-only courses, abolishing two undergraduate years as funds allow. The move, announced by President Frank J. Goodnow at Gilman’s anniversary, aims to create a focused environment for intensive study and research, potentially needing $6.7 million in new endowment and staff expansion. Christine Ladd-Franklin was awarded a Doctor of Philosophy in absentia for logic research.
